If the kingdom of heaven and eternal
life are confined to those who have clean,
pure hearts, what will be the hereafter of

But the earache subsidized, and 1 went

and the icy weather softened down with
the rain.
New York Pennsylvania and all the

many years, and the blizzard was head

One of the most thoughtful addresses
was delivered on Sunday morning by
Rev. D. Mackichon, d. D., LII. D., Of
Bombay. the text being the 21st verse
of the first chapter of First Corinthians.
The preacher referred at length to the
idolatries that existed I'm the ancient
world at the time of Paul's preaching.
He said that the wisdom of the ancient
world had failed to uplift the nations,
and then by the preaching of Paul and
others, that Christianity had prevailed
and the world had been blessed. He found
in the present Indian conditions similar to
those that existed in the ancient world
at the time OF Paul.
Invasion after invasiop," the preacher
said, has rolled over this land of India;
empire has arisen and fallen, but through
il all, the mind of India has ever been
on the quest after God. At the root of all
Indias religion there is self Remuneration,
spiritual degradation, and enfeeblement.
Yet we must recognize the nobility of
the striving. AS we look, there is sor-
row and hope-sorrow at the failure and
hope that at the heart of the nation there
is a deep longing and earnest desire for
the spiritual.
Some have looked only at Inda's fail
Ure and have exposed her idoatries
Others, making the error of today seem
inclined to interpret India's religion in
the light of its aspiration and not i'm
the light of what it has accomplished.
