Secondly, they have had unlimited and
enviable experiences which provide them

link which will bind them closely to
their American associates.

she thought Of US. Il am Of the opinion
that the American mind Is especially in
ventive. You excel the world in wonder

capable along that line than in art.
You are SO quick. SO alert: you see
to the heart of things at once. On the
personal side, your sincerity reinforces
the expression of this quality. On the
professional side it causes you to ex-

DISTINCTION WITHOUT A DIFF
FERENCE

The cry among the ants in Pennsyl-
vania at the present time is "Down
with Penrose and Penroseism.' A
few years ago it was "Down with
Finn and F1innism.' But now that
Boss Finn has been purified by hav-
ing been declared the leader of PRO
gressiveism'' in the Keystone state,
he has become a highly exalted, re-
spectacle Christian gentleman, in
whose mouth butter will not melt.
While there may have been cpl
sodes in the political career of Senat-
or Penrose that are justly subject to
criticism, he certainly has never de-
scended to the depths of pothouse pol
itics as has the ~unspeakble Finn.
Notwithstanding the fact that Gift
ford Pinchot has been injected into
the senatorial race for the express
purpose of defeating Penrose, the
chances are in favor of the latter S
reelection. Pennsylvania, of all the
states Of the Union, suffers most from
free trade, and Senator Penrose, what
ever his faults, is a staunch protec-
ZIONIST.

CALIFORNIA RETURNING TO.
RTAsON

Notwithstanding the fact thai the
Sacramento Bee confidently claims the
re election Of Gov. Hiram Johnson,
next to Teddy the Biggest Buii Mooser
in the country, it is not altogether
clear upon what it bases its claim. 1t
is probable that every citizen Of the
state of California who intend to vote
for johnson has registered as a Pro-
gressive, while it is equally certain
that every voter who has registered
Republican is opposed to his re-elec-
tion.
According to the latest tabulation
of registration returns from 81 coun-
ties of the state recently given oat
by the secretary of state, the totals
are as follows: Republican, 1867
Progressive, 153,O59; Democrat, 145,-
321. 1t will thus be seen that the Re-
publican registration is nearly twice
that of the Progressive, and e~nearly
equal to the Progressive aud Demo
cratic combined.
It would seem that all the Republic
can party in California need do to
win at the coming election is to put
up a good ticket. It's success will
mean the end of "Progressiveism' in
California, one of that party's princi-
pal strongholds, which viii go a long
way towards its elimination in the
presidential campaign of 1916.

Why DO you SAY rRED-LETTER
DAY?

A red-letter day is not the solemn
occasion it was few hundred years
ago-in fact, any day of merrymak-
ing is likely to be marked on the
modern calendar in rubrics or red let
tiers .
But when the world was younger
the church fathers wrote the names
of great feast days in the service
books in red letters, and these sacred
days were known as red-letter days.
Like. many another graphic express
sion, ''red-letter days" has come
down to posterity with an entirely
new significance.

The third IN that strange and yet won
derful inward process by which some
times. apart from investigation or In
struction. the mind apprehends the truth,
that which we often describe as intuition.
a truth entering the heart.
Now the things Of Gods redemption OF
man cannot be discovered In either OF
these ways. They can only be appre-
hended a. the spirit makes them known
directly to the soul.
The realization of this fundamental
truth at once gives us to understand the
only method by which 1t IL possible to
proclaim these things to men. This can
not be done with excellency Of speech or
Of wisdom-that IL. not by the perfected
expression and unaided activity of hu-
man intelligence; nor by. persuasive
words of speech-that Is, such arguments
a. VIII illuminate and convince Indeed.
the proclamation of these things demands
on the part of the preacher q sense OF
weakness and fear and trembling con-
corning himself, and an entire depend
ence-upon the demonstration and power
of the spirit-that is, upon the spirit to
make plain and to bring conviction.
The Teaching.
The teaching Of the lesson Is perfectly
patent. The things Of Christ. which are
the things of human redemption. cannot
be discovered or understood by unaided
human wisdom. The central and sum-
Client illustration Of the truth Ii that OF
the inability Of the human mind to form
ulase the philosophy Of the atonement.
These things Of necessity God knows. His
spirit alone 10 able to reveal them. and
VIC therefore must receive them Is re-
veeled by Him.
Yet again, we cannot show them to
others. In the work Of proclaiming these
things we must depend upon our own ina
bility, say the things He gives us to say.
rest assured the spirit will demonstrate
them to those who hear. and .energise
for obedience thereto.
