Infallible Remedy.

We are not to be unmindful that there
are enemies lying in wait to retard spirit
ual development and we are to guard
against them even more strenuously than
against the dangers in the way of physi-
cal progress. Important as perfection in
physical nature is, it is far more impor-
tant in the spiritual life, as eternal
things are superior to the temporal. Yet
how common it is for men to be con-
cerned about the body more than the
soul.
How eagerly men seek for every nos
trum to alleviate and cure the infirmities
of the body, who pay little or no atten-
ton to the far greater infirmities of the
soul!
The remedies that can be found for the
bodily ailments are never certain, but
those freely offered for soul sickness are
infallible,
1t is always a question about the re-
covery of the bOdy's illness and about it's
reaching maturity of vigor. God has
made known no specific for the earthly
body. In it are planted the seeds of de-
cay and death. But there is never a
question about the recovery of the soul S
illness and it's attaining the maturity of
perfection if the remedy God has provided
is applied.

remain in session for eight days. This
Detroit meeting marks the close of the
first five years Of the convention. a body
formed for the purpose Of co-ordinating
and co-relatng all Baptist effort. In
this effort home and foreign missions are
the largest single factor, although Bap-

religious bodies. the Methodist probably

many unions it has proved happy and

Features of the convention will be the
union of the two Women's Foreign So
cieties, with former headquarters in Bos-
ton and Chicago, and the mapping out OF
plans for larger efficiency of organiza-
tions of men. This efficiency has been
sought in the past by making common
district secretaries, something more than
twenty in number, and authorizing them
to represent not one interest. but all.
Still farther amalgamation is to come In
the great task of reducing the machinery
and its cost and in increasing the product

crease the benevolent gifts Of northern
Baptists to $3.OOO.G00 a year. Steady
progress is making toward that figure,

young Christian must be fed on the milk

Observe that the apostle says: THE
sincere milk of the word" 1t must not
be adulterated with the maxims and
sophistries of men. There is nothing SO
pure as the simple word of God. 1t af-
fords the adequate nourishment for every
hunger of the soul. 1t is the food, when
rightly partaken Of, that insures to the

he grows old in the new life he will not
depart from it. but find it more and more

we accept and believe the statement that,

Manhood's Stature.

From the spiritual birth, through the
earlier years of experience in the new
life the faithful and obedient Christian
grows up to the mature stature of the
man of God
This maturity and ripeness in the
graces of the spirit come through our
appreciation and exercise of the gifts
which belong to the spiritual life AS IN
the physical life the child must have the
proper food and exercise to develop into
a strong and vigorous manhood. so in the
spiritual life the child must have the
right spiritual food and spiritual exercise
to grow into a strong and vigorous spir-
itual manhood. For the natural child is
the common bread and exercise of the
physical and mental gifts to attain manly
strength and vigor, and SO for the spir-
itual child is the mama, the bread from
heaven. and the exercise of the spiritual
graces and gifts. to grow into the power
and stature of the mystical body.

cording to the measure of the gift of
Christ
This same child who COMPOUNDED the
lawyers and doctors at the age of twelve,
after He had finished His earthly min
istry, assembled OH high and, having re-
sumed the Almighty power that had been
His from eternity, He gave gifts unto
men.
And He gave some, apostles: and
some, prophets; and some, evangellsts;
and some. pastors and teachers; for the
perfecting Of the saints. for the work of
the ministry, for the edifying of the body
of Christ"
It is in the acceptance and faithful ex-
ercise OF the spiritual gifts freely offered
that it is possible for one to grow up
unto the measure of the stature of Christ
not that we can here reach the stand
ard of a perfect man. We Will have to
wait for the perfect man until we reach
the perfect world. The best that can be
hoped for is ito be Christians of full
maturity and ripeness in all the graces
derived from Christ's fullness.'

Childhood of Christ.

In the childhood of Christ in His human
existence we find illustration of spiritual
growth. 1t affords a lesson not only to
the young in years. but to the old who
are young in Christian experience.
From the evangelists we learn that
Christ's spiritual faculties enlarged in
proportion to growth in His physical
nature. He grew In mind as He grew
in body. and early arrived at the pos
session of heavenly wisdom. His earthly
parents were poor and His opportunities
for education were. SO far as we can
gather from the evangelistS. limited to
the instruction that His parents gave
Him. as required by the Jewish law. His
disadvantages were overcome by His SUI
pernatural abilities, that in His boy
hood years He displayed wisdom to as
tonish the doctors and eXpounders of the
law So in like manner, but not in like
degree, the Christian may grow in wisdom
and knowledge.

Those who are born again do not re-

into a measure of the stature of the full
ness of that life from whom it is derived.
Paul said: When l was child, | spoke
as a child, understood as child; but

ish things
And so in another place he enjoins:
THAT we henceforth be no more chill
dren, tossed to and fro, and carried

slight of men and cunning craftlness,
whereby they lie in wait to deceive; but
speaking the truth in love, may grow up
