Religious RevivaIs

"This seems to be a year of religious revivals throughout the country" said q layman. Some ardent Christian peo- ,ple have said that church revivals ac- oomplished very little of permanent good. But this Is a great mistake Granting that many men and women who profess religion under the excite ment of revival become backsliders, a vast number stick and make useful church members.
 Tn the cities revivals are usually held in the fall or spring, but in the country summer is preferable for evan selistie work. Some of the greatest sermons have ever heard was preach ed at camp meetings. One reads good deal about the tendency on the part of men to agnosticism, but in spite of any such tendency the charch ranks are well filled up and from my observation the men are as much in evidence as they ever were"

ADRIFT WITH THE TIMES
WHILE VIE LIVE.

W AAAf1i1 w AH LII The world goes round. the world goes round,
 And weeping follows laughter; Though little to praise in life be found, A long sleep cometh after. Oh well, for the heart content to wait, With a constancy unbroken, Till the hour dawns, or soon or late. When the farewell word is spoken. The world goes round, the world goes round,
 And sunshine follows rain; The rainbow gleams OCT grief's profound And gladness conquers pain. However the years may cheat us still And the goal fade out of view, Iris better to strive with a dauntless will Than to die as the weddings do
