Gods Demand of Men.

What God asks of men is to have
repentance for their rebellion against
him and his authority ana to have
faith in his son, whom he sent as a
ransom for the sins of the world. Re-
pentance is that sorrow for sin which
will cause one to turn from it. 1t
means turning from evil to good. This
is clearly duty. He gives you space
in which to perform that duty. And
he tells you how.
BY faith in him whom he hath sent.
Repentance and faith go together
Repentance is the earthly side Of
faith, faith the heavenly side Of re-
pentance," or Repentance is the tear
in the eye OF faith"
The space given for these things is
the present. The time for the sinner
to stop and turn about is now. The
space to repent is limited in duration.
Your now" will go on forever. but not
your opportunity to repent. The time
is rapidly coming to all or which it is
written:
He that is unjust, let him be I'M
just still; and he which is filthy, let
him be filthy STILL and he that is
righteous. let him be righteous still:
and he that is holy, let him be holy
still"

4SPACE TO REPENT"
Gods Definition of Time Of
Greatest Significance to
Mankind.


to repent" This is its greatest i'm
portance and significance to mankind.
We are wont to speak of time as the
measure OF duration. God calls It "a
space to repent" Is II not wiser to
accept a divine lexicon rather than
human one? According to Gods def
milton man is not here primarily to es-
tablish a home and fortune, but ito re-
pent."
God Is the great gfver But as
Fenelon said. ITO show us the worth
OF time. God, most liberal OF all other
things. is exceedingly frugal in the
dispensing OF that. for he never gives
us -wo moments together nor grants
us a second till he has withdrawn the
first, still keeping the third in his
own hands, SO we are in perfect I'M
certainty whether we shall have 1t or
not. The true manner for preparing
for the last moment is to spend all
the others well and ever to expect
that. We dote upon this world as II
It were never to have an end, and we
neglect the next as II It were never
to have a beginning"
How we trifie away our brief and
uncertain space to repent" Though
1t Is brief and uncertain the period al
lotted is sufficient II we will use it,
else God would not have given it, Its
brevity and uncertainty is Gods APP
peal against delay. Had the space to
repent been fixed and sure for long,
definite period would any give the
matter thought until near or at
the last moment, and the whole pur-
pose of life thus be defeated? The
life is more important than time But
we have no fixed and definite space in
which to repent.
Now Is the Time
Thou canst not delay" said Rich
ter. for a single moment the flight
OF time, and thou complainest that
time is a continual overdropping OF
moments. which fall down one upon
the other and evaporate Above hangs,
unchanged, the future, and under
meath grows the past, and becomes
| always larger the farther it flies back
And thou askest. What remains
with me?' The present. / answer.
However much time may fly away
from you, the present is your eternity
and never abandons you. Time is the
chrysalis Of eternity"
The space to repent" is bounded
upon every side by now" You can
| not repent in the past or in the fu-
ture: for you will never be in either.
You are ever and always in the pres
ent.
You have space to repent 1t is now,
Just now. To-day If we will hear his
voice." etc. Now is the accepted
time" Come, for all things are now
ready"
Delay not, delay not. o sinner, to come,
For mercy still fingers and calls thee to-.
day:
Her voice is not heard in the vale of the
tomb
Her message UNDECIDED will soon pass
away.
Delay not, delay not, the spirit OF grace
Long srieved and resisted may take his
sad flight,
Ard leave thee in darkness to finish thy
race
And sink in the vale of eternity's night.

Finally she had an idea, although there

street and traffic for 20 minutes. Why?
A lady was fixing her automobile. Miss
Wilbur having had the idea mentioned,
put it into operation she drew three hair
pins from her hair and getting under the
machine, again deposited them some

motor began to hum. In a moment

mond Murphy, another prominent farmer
near fredericksburg, went to his death in
the same way when he shot himself
through the head with a 80 calibre re-
volyer at his home last Friday, Novem-

BY the family Physician, Dr. ]. R.

children survive his loss.
Frederick Howard, a paint and oil
salesman for Steelman & Archer, of
Philadelphia, met with a very painful
accident while enroute to his home on
Pine street in his automobile last Friday
afternoon.
The town was having cement crossing
laid and had stretched a heavy rope
across the street stopping traffic on that
part Of the street, Howard while whirl-
ing around the corner near his home and
not noticing the rope, the twisted grass
came in contact with his wind shield of

splinting the glass which cut and scratched |

his car to a stop, had grabbed him under
the chin and with such force as to render
him unconscious for awhile. 1t was first
thought he was seriously injured.
About a dozen people on the public
road on the East side of the town yester-
day watched Miss Agnes Wilbur repair
her electric coupe wife a hairpin, after it
had quit outright and refused to bulge
for more than an hour. miss Wilbur
