That experience when God cheersd

not peculiar. God was always cheering
him. or he could never have borne the
persecution and troubles of his splendid

shone in upon him on the Damascus road
to the end of his life he knew that God
was with him and the message. Fear

Lord.
In his quaint John Ploughmans TAX
Sturgeon gives this needed counsel;
Down men must not despair, for God
is yet alive, and He is the friend OF the
friendless. II there be no one else round
to hold out a hand to him who has fallen,
the Lords hand shall not fail TO bring
deliverance to those who trust HIM.

Message Of the Hospitals.

Jesus answer to John has been from
that time a proof to the world that Jesus,
the Messiah. has, indeed, come. AS He
healed the sick, so Ills followers strive
to minister to the unfortunate. Before
His coming men were callous and indif-
ferent to the sufferings OF others. But
His coming made a difference. In the
wake OF the gospel there spring up hos
pitfalls and asylums and refugees without
number: these are milestones Of the prog
ress of the kingdom of heaven.
From a missionary in India comes an
incident which shows how the example
of Jesus is followed today in that land
by those who believe in Him. with like
result:
In a village in Bengal there is a small
Christian community, with tiny church
and a pastor who tries to teach his peo-
pie to live true among their heather
neighbors. One night a young man pass
ing through the village was taken sick
with cholera and died alone on the road
side. In the morning the report spread
through the village that a man was dead
by the road. The Mohammedans, after
looking at the man, said he was q Hindu.
and they would not touch the body. The
Hindus came, but as there was no mark
of caste on the body, they went away.

1t takes pretty good nerve to fight for

When everybody agrees with you it's

your ground that the enemy is in the

Men and Religion


in any ten years up to this time And
these diners have done something besides
eat. They have heard the straightest
kind OF talk from leading business and
professional men concerning their duty
to support missionary enterprises with
the same steadfastness and enthusiasm
which their mothers and sisters. their
wives and daughters have displayed for
many a day. Yes. the men are waking
up. not simply to a keen interest In GER
tain definite propaganda, but to realiza-
ton OF the fact that personal religion is
an experience into which full-blOoded.
capable. hard-hitting man ought to enter.
It may not come to him in just the way
1t comes to woman with her more SEN
sitive and highstrung nature. He may
not be able to render the exact service
which his wife can render. but he ought
to be ashamed to be religious by proxy
and slip into heaven by and by under
the mantle of his wife's faith ana love.
Religion when rightly understood APP
peals to strong men. The Christian re-
ligion began in a company of young men
they were strong and capable Of over
coming the evil one. Religion has never
lacked masculine adherents of the man.

of heaven which no cloistered saint can
ever render.

reSs." 1t was to Him that Christian was
sent Immediately after he had entered
"the straight gate to be instructed In
the way he should go, just as Christians
of today must get divine guidance from
the same source.
The Interpreter gladly instructed Chris
tian. showed him the dangers before him,
and pointed out the snares to be avoided.
Christian profited by the example of
many who had yielded to temptation. and
went on his way rejoicing. Soon after
the burden fell from his back. he was
stripped Of his rags. and clothed with
change Of raiment." He proceeded on
his journey. singing and leaping for joy.
All too little Is made of the work of the
Holy Spirit in the Transforming process
that takes place in our lives. He it is who
prompts us to every generous thought.
to every noble action. He becomes our
guide and prompter in the Christian life.
and well is 1t for us If we listen to His
admonitions We call these insistent plead
ings the voice Of conscience. but it is the
doings of the Holy Spirit. Children. es-
pecially. should keep their hearts open
to receive the pleadings of this divine
guest. for their conscience is not har-
dened. and they more readily hear and
heed the pleadings OF the heavenly visit
ant. This, doubtless, is the sin that can
not be forgiven-the neglect of the Holy
Spirit: for If We are not saved through
His efforts We cannot be saved at all.

What People Talk About

what do you hear? The stock express
sions relate to deals. pools. propositions,
stocks. bonds. percentage of profit, merg-
ers, gilt-edged investments and the like.
Or consort with the politicians and hear

goods. Or frequent the gatherings of the

Plain is it not that people today talk
| chiefly about what they eat and wear,
about the almighty dollar and where
withal they shall be amused. People talk
about these things because they think
aoout them. And what poverty of ideas
the average popular conversation reveals.
what shallow emotions. what limited
experience of the height and depth Of
human life.
Even If they are not doing any posi-
tive harm to others, by their idle and
profitless talk, people are injuring them
selves. God endowed man with the pow
ers of speech, that he might use il for
the highest ends If he habitually con-
fines himself to trivialities he loses or
lessons his ability to promote through his
talk his own upward progress and the
welfare of others.
Why not then be more scrupulous in
the choice Of topics of conversation? One
need not abandon altogether small talk
or Ordinary themes, out one can accuston
himself to thinking and speaking of larger
matters. He can talk of the virtues and
valor Of his fellow-men instead of de-
crying them. He can point out the mer
its. advantages and opportunities of the
community in which he lives instead of
constantly criticizing and belittling it. He
can talk about the big movements going
on in various parts of the world that
are lifting humanity. He can talk OF
the goodness of God. as Christian and

Ioutcast. But then-as now-some acted
as If they thought there should be a Diff

powerful and obscure. John dared to lift
his voice against wickedness In high
places, and he found himself behind pris-

To him in his prison there came news
of the work Jesus was doing, the crowds
that crowded to hear him, the miracles
he was performing, and all the other evil
ldences that One had come who was to
transform the world. Daily John must
have expected the dawn of the day when
Jesus would overturn the power of Rome
and take his place as the acknowledged
ruler of his people. conquering all men
by the power of love. But the day was
delayed Wickedness still triumphed. He
was still in prison. What wonder. then,
that his faith should begin to waver?
