fort me, or Il go to prepare a place for
you, and where l am there We may be
also"
And one more word to the young man
who would p. an his life on large scale.
What think We of Christ? I DO not pre-
sen Him merely as the highest type OF
man, but rather as the hi hest type of
the Sor of God and Savior of the
world-as He presents Himself when lie
says, Il am the way. the truth. the life"
Do YOU have difficulty in believing in His
Divinity? II is because you have meas
ured Him by the rules that apply to man
Take Him out OF the man class and put
Him in the God class. and then it will NOT
be difficult TO understand Him.
Measure Him by the task which He came
to perforn-it was not a mans task
Measure Him by the records He has made
Why. If He was but man. has not our
civilization produced another of Ills kind
Why are even His enemies compelled to
admit the magic OF His name and the
woodworking influence OF the philoso-
ply He taught? Why are His words a.
potent today as when the fishermen o.
Gafflee became His discipies-as conyinc-
ing as they were when the com non
people heard Him gladly upon the Mount
Of the Beatitudes?
Are you in doubt about His power 70 per
form miracles when He walked among
men? He is performing them today The
Christ who can today open the eyes of
young man. who sees nothing but the
body and knows nothing but the pleas
ures that come through the fiesh-the
Christ who can open the eyes of such "a
one to the larger vision OF the spiritual
life could have opened the eyes OF the
physically blind. Do you question His
power to raise the dead? Go into any
rescue mission and hear the testimony OF
those who, after years of dissipation and
of crime. have come under the influence
OF His grace and have been born again
behold the change-the Christ who can
take a man from the gutter one who has
fallen so low that even his own fes n and
blood have abandoned him, and lift him
up. cleanse his heart and all IL with a
passion for service-such a Christ could
break the bonds Of the tomb

upon your mind the Importance
Of planning a life upon a high plane and
upon a large scale. / have accomplished
my purpose. But / shall be happier still
II among YOU there Is one young man
whom I have been able to help-ons
who has been made stronger to resist
temptation and whose conception of LIES
has been enlarged, for one
life. filled with love of God and devoted
TO the welfare of his fellows, can bring
blessings to a community, a

BLIND MAYS SIGHT RESTORED
TranspIanted, Is Hailed as fri umph of Surgery.

The French Academy of Sciences an- rounces the success of an operation on blind man, performed seven months aga and watched carefully ever since.
 A workman had an eye burned by quicklime, 80 that the cornea had be- come opaque. It mas long been the dream of scientists to transplant the cornea from animals to man, but so far this has been tried without success.
 This transparent cornea is one of the most delicate parts of the human organism. Very soon after death, or after the removal of the eye from a living person, for that matter. it be- comes opaque and begins to break up
 Rut M. Magitot has found way to preserve it's transparency In the case in question it had been kept week before a piece of it was fitted into the depression made by removing . quar- ter-inrh square section of the cornea of the blind mans eye.

Sicriiized Coal.

Cral in the mines is ore of the things freest from germs. Old-time doctors used to notice coal miners wounds healed fast, thoug'-. begclmec and besmeared with coal dust. For a long time it has been thought that breathing in coal dust caused lung dis eases in miners, Some experts find fresh coal is as good as sterii'aed, and say miners have lung trouble because they do not take the trouble to l'ut off their damp and sweaty clothing be fore going from the mine to their homes, thus taking cold in the open air walk. Experts say our miners Ought to put on warm and dry clothes at tie mouth of the mine. But 1t seems the miners have minds of their own, and although the coal companies in some places fixed up hot and cold water baths and dressing rooms at the mouth of the mines the men would not use them, but went home to wash and dress, as had been their custom, Sor xe1seatlons.
