The peril of sunstroke typif1es the
danger of worldliness. A father toll
ing in the field of business. professional
life or politics learns to control the
fierce passions of selfishness that seethe
around him, in winning his way to sue
cess; but the son, trying to enter his
fathers field without first learning the
lesson of self-control, is soon con-
sumed by the passions of selfshness
and greed and appetite. and too often
the result is fatal, and he becomes a
drunkard, a criminal, or suicide.
The summer heat is to the body what
worldliness is to the soul. With many,
religion grows cold as the days grow
hot. 1t is so easy to lapse into indif-
ference during the heat of the summer
so easy to neglect the means Of
grace-so easy to drop into habits Of
conduct looser than the conscience
would sanction during the vigorous,

spiritual efficiency suffers. and spiritual

thousands. The sums that all Protes-

of $4,000, 900. If worthy ministers and

REV. HOWARD |. STEWART ACCEPTS
H. CALL TO SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH
Warren, Pa Pastor Announces Determination to
Takes Up Local Work Early In September.

Rev Howard I. Stewart of Warren,
Pa, has accepted the recent unanimous
call to the pastorate of the Second

CARNATIONS of the Columbia Assocla-
ton of Baptist Churches
Mr. Stewart will in all probability

The pastor was born in Kansas in
1877, the greater part of his life having
been spent in Pennsylvania. His ia
Their was a Baptist minister and held
pastorates in both of the states named.
Mr.. Stewart is a graduate of the
Pittston, Pa, Academy: Bucknen Uni

at Lansdale, Pa. where he succeeded

Dog Day Dangers.

Heat, whether natural or artificial,
produces power which will benefit or
harm. according to the purpose to
which it is put. and the manner in
which it is applied. Those who are
compelled to labor in the fields in the
heat of the sun, know how to take
precautions so as to avoid suffering
sunstroke. Those who toll in the cities
know that the heat reduces their physi-
cal. mental and spiritual efficiency to
the lowest degree, and the summer va
cation Is becoming more and more uni
versal. The man who boasts that he
has not taken vacation in twenty-five
years is no longer regarded as hero,
but rather as a prize foolishar''
The worst of it is that those who
most need the relief from perils of
summer heat afforded by vacation at
the seashore, in the mountains or in
the. country are those least able to af-
ford and obtain it: and this fact makes
the heat-peril community danger, and
puts upon the more fortunate the re-
sponsibility of providing the less for

able them to avoid the heat-periD and

Dover of Beautiful Feathers.

The bird of paradise, which has such
dover of exquisitely beautiful
feathers, cannot fly with the wind; If
it attempts to do SO, the current, be-
ing much swifter than it's flight, SO
ruffles it's plumage as to impede its
progress, and finally to terminate it; it
is therefore compelled to fly against
the wind. So the Christian must not
attempt to go with the current of a
sinful world; if he does, it will not
only hinder but end his religious prog
ress; but he must go against 1t, and
then every effort of his soul will be
upward and Godward.
John said: Love not the world,
neither tie things that are in the
world. " any man love the world, the
love of the Father is not in him. For
all that is in the world. the lust of the
flesh and the lust of the eye and the
pride of life, is not of the Father, but
is of the world. And the world passeth
away, and the lust thereof; but he that
doeth the will Of God abideth forever"
Paul said: BE not conformed to this
world-use this world, as not abusing
it; for the fashion of this world passeth
away" And Jesus said: THE cares Of
this world, and the deceitfulness of
riches, and the lusts of other things,
entering in, choke the Word, and it be-
cometh unfruitful."

The Grand in Christianity.

The supreme fact of Christianity
the corner stone of its superstructure-
is disclosed in the words: who gave
Himself for our sins"
The heart of Christianity is the self
dedication of Christ to the moral res
toration of man.
1t Is the love on which Christianity
Is based that makes it of such infinite
value to the world. Love has made
wonderful gifts.
1t was love that gave the universe
love that created the world; but the
greatest gift of all is expressed in
Pauls words: HE gave Himself" BY
this we are taught that self-sacrifice
should be the animating spirit Of life.
Christianity is doing the most for
the world in teaching that none should
live to himself, and in exempnfying
that the most virtuous and blessed
life Is in losing self for the cause. of
humanity and the claims OF God.
Then how grand is Christianity in its
purposeI He gave Himself For our
sins. that He might deliver us from this
present evil world Not the natural
world, but .the immortality that is in it.
The purpose Of Christianity is to de-
liver us from what Is selfish, carnal
and devilish in the world.

Ito redeem us from all iniquity"-from

and the penalty of sin. .- ....

Christianity came to take the place
of superstition and establish in its
place a religion founded upon the
worship of the one only true God.
To do this. God in the person of Jesus
Christ appeared among men and thus
revealed Himself as the one and only
one worthy of worship.
In this revelation a new hope was
given to the world: and in that hope
the world has steadily grown brighter
and better.
