who lay great stress upon the fact
that they firmly believe so far as
the first division of our text is con-
eerned, but seem to stop there. 1t
seems that they have failed thru
inattention to details to see the
glorious beauty of the life teach
ings of this individual. There be
others among us who give very
meager attention to the story of the
miraculous conception, the revers-
ais of the law of nature, the resur-
rection and ascension, but delve
down deep into the great moral
truths of this great teacher.
The question naturally arises
which of these classes Is saved?
In order to determine this question
it becomes necessary to inquire into
what saved means From rather
careful reading of other texts IN
connection with this I am per-
shaded that it means not salvation
from perdition but from sin. The
that hearty, serious. rational be-
lief which prompts the believer to
accept Christ as an ideal and to
make it the business of their life
to initiate the life of Christ and to
adopt his teachings as rule of ac-
ton. He who processes a belief in
the Christ and yet leads life OF
cold, calculating selfishness de-
ceives himself and is blinded by the
god of unrighteousness.
This view of the matter is ra-
tional and fully fortified by the
teachings Of the Nazarine.

FROM THE FIELD.


Go We into all the world and
preach the gospel to every creature;
he that belieyeth and is baptized
shall be saved. and he that beliey-
eth not shall be damned Accord
ing to one of the four books pur-
porting to give the history of the
conception, birth, lifes work, ar
rest. accusation, trial condempa-
ton, death, burial, resurrection, re-
appearance among men and ascen-
sion the words of our text was
part of the valedictory address of
the lowly Nazarine.
The word gospel, in significance,
comprises the complete history of
the stirring life and tragical death
of Jesus Christ, his resurrection
and ascension.
should one undertake to unfold
to an audience unacquainted with
the story of the cross, the plan Of
salvation it would require the divis-
ion of the gospel into two distinct
heads. The method of procedure
would be according to the habits OF
thought of the teacher. One would
proceed by induction to relate in
the form of a narrative the story
of the life and acts of an individual
Emphasis would be especially plac-
ed on those miraculous manifesto
lions of power not possessed by any
other individual known to history.
The first step being to produce all
the proof at hand to show that such
an individual had been on earth,
then the teacher would adduce all
the evidence, direct and circumstan-
tial. tending to prove that this in
7ividual was not an ordinary NOR I
al. but was one imbued with au-
hority on high, A close reasoner u
you'd not neglect to enter into the
lost minute description of the more a
alient features of the career of the VI
idividual He would exercise care II
answer to the full satisfaction of Oh
S hearers all questions. Having as
lily established in the mind of his ~
ditor the fact that Christ was eA
ID, that after his death he arose no
d again appeared among men, all
1t he assembled to Heaven and be-
n ascending gave utterance to OF
words of the text the first di- Wh
ion of his subject would be fully 4
posed of, This auditor by that act
q would have become believer the
Christ as a character in history. BUS
after this teacher has progressed ~

1t is there when the second d.
vision Of the subject is reached
that we come to the meat of the
text. Our teacher would there ex-
lain that this individual spoke as
nan never Spake. tie Would enter "
ITO a full discussion of the great tS

Free Sport.

An angler was fishing cOntentedly IN
stream near an insane asylum when
one of the inmates appeared upon the
scene. Sport had been poor. and the
sportsman was overjoyed when at last
he landed beauty. He was gazing
with pride ut his catch when the visi-
tor asked:
DO you sell them fish. mister?'
"Sell 'em?" responded the angler
mo fear. I'm sportsman. not a fish
monger. i fish for the sport of catch
ing EN-
''Oh. you do. eh?" remarked the visi
tor as he kicked the capture back into
the water. We'll, now you can have
some more sport catching that one

Gloves and Thimhles

"One of the hardest things for shop
pers to learn is that the size of gloves
and thimbles does not coincide" said a
Sixth avenue salesman. If the wo-
man who wears No Il glove asks her
husband to buy thimble for her she
tells him to get No. thimble. If he
takes that size the chances are it will
only stick on the tip of her little fin
ger. She needs a No. 8. OF course
there are exceptions to the rule. for in
thimbles. as in gloves. there are great
differences in the make. and Il great
deal depends. too. upon the pecuiiari-
ties Of the hand. But. as Il rule, Thin
bles run about two sizes larger than
gloves."-New York Times.
