SENTENCE SERMONS.

It is easy to stir up a storm in a
puddle.
Many men give themselves away
when they try to save themselves.
The Good Samaritan saves his ser
mons until after the work of succor.
When all men wish you with the
angels you may be sure you're far from
them.
Smooth people who hope to slide
into heaven find that the skids run the
other way.
If you try to do all the good that
needs to be done you will soon lose
heart for doing any good.
If you set your heart on gold you
can get it. but you can never satisfy
your heart with it.
Some preachers who delight in hurl-
ing anathemaS at heretics wonder why
a teamster should want to swear.
The average saint is apt to look to
the average man like a decrepit old
gentleman rebuking boy for climbing
a tree.

New Mown nav in a Church.

A custom which has existed at Old
Weston (Huntingdonshire) England,
from time immemorial has again been
observed. The church is dedicated to
St. Swithin, and on the Sunday near
est st. Swithin's day the edifice is
streWn with new mown hay. The ira
dition is that an old lady beuueathed
a field for charitable purposes on con-
dition that the tenant provided the hay
to lessen the annoyance caused by the
sQueaking OF the new boots worn by
the villagers on Feast Sunday. There
are other explanations-one that it is
an offering Of the first fruits of the
hay harvest and another that it is a
survival of the custom of strewing the
church (when the floor was only beat
en- earth) with rushes, these being re-
newed on the festival Sunday.

lisp its haunting phrases and wisest
scholars exhaust their resources in
praising the unique merits of the
Scriptures. The simple fact that in
the Sunday schools of the world more
than twenty-five million persons study
this book weekly is worthy of long
pondering. jeremiah and his fellows
have been vindicated by time.
When Truth Goes InOt the Flames.
The enthusiasm which any friend
of the Bible has a right to feel now
adays might not have been shared by
jeremiah, as he learned of the con-
temptuOus way in which King Jehoai-
kim received and burner his precious
roll. By this time the Bible has
grown well used to this procedure.
Kings and councils and popes and
churches have tried to destroy this
book. UncOunted thousands of copies
of its precious pages have gone into
the fire; but only to make a beacon
that lights up the world more and
more brightly. The burning of Bibles
has been as beacon in the progress
of the race. There are no fires yet
discovered that can consume the
truth.
Men are still trying it. DR.. Ferrer
is executed in Spain, students are i'm
prisoned in Russia, and their litera-
ture conf1scated. India's government
suppresses the good along with the
dictionary period, in an endeavor to
force the new wine of the awakened
nations intellectual life into the, old
wine skins Of idolatry; but every
where and always this effort is so
futile as to be absurd. A high Japan
ese official told me that the govern
ments course is "idiotic" which is
perhaps stronger word than a for
eigner could use in poiiteness. Yet
1t needs d vigorous adjective to char
acterize properly the long procession
of authorities, from Jehoaikim down
to today, who have tried to suppress
or destroy truth.
Men in their madness may destroy
themselves upon truth, but they can
not destroy the truth. The familiar
adage, ''The truth is mighty and must
prevail" needs to be here driven in
to the hearts of all Sunday school
scholars as life conviction. 1--WE can
do nothing against the truth, but only
for the truth ''The word Of our
God shall stand forever" Jehoai-
kims may slash and cut and burn for
their little day but the only result is
TO promote the production of a larg-
er, cleaner statement of the truth.
Baruch's quill is mightier than the
kings penknife.
Out of this ancient story should
emerge for our own day a new and
holy passion for the truth The glory
of suffering and dying. if need be, for
the truth-and all truth IS Gods truth
lis to be held aloft as the highest
lot and privilege of mortal. The fam
ing martyr spirit. the jeremiah spirit,
is a better possession than a great
store of dollars.

had heard any reasons. Molly Elliot
Seawell realized the truth of this OBJ
servation. and though known hereto
fore as a writer of fiction. she entered
the new field with eagerness and pro-
ceeded to give some reasons. An ar
ticle of hers appeared in the Atlantic
Monthly some months ago and aroused
wide discussion, which was in the
main SO favorable that she has once
again gone into the subject, this time
more in detail. In THE Ladies' Bat
tle," which has recently been publish
ed by the MacmiIlans. she presents
several arguments against woman suf-
frage which will require all the in
genuity of those who disagree with her
to make even a show of answering.
and 1t is much doubted whether any
counter arguments can be given which
will be as strong as those advanced by
Miss Seawell.
