The Lords Day, like the Jewish
Sabbath, is a memorial day. 1t is
reminder of divine things: II
points above, like the church spires.
Taking man from the grind of six
days labor. II calls him aside TO
, worship the Risen Christ and the
Rather who set apart one day as
an occasion TO be remembered In
His honor.
THE Sabbath was made for
man." declared Jesus--for the best
that is in man. and not for the
worst. They who would make the
Lords Day merely an occasion for
the indulgence of mans lower ma
ture rather than for the cultivation
of his higher spiritual self, can get
little support from the example and
teaching of Jesus.
Much Of the perplexity which
many persons feel over the observ-
ance of the Lords Day arises from
confounding IL with the Jewish Sab
bath. or worse, with the Sabbath OF
the Scotch and English Puritans.
The extra-legalists among the old
Jews read into the beneficent Sab
bath observance matter Of minute
regulations. These burdens. too
lgrievous 10 be borne, Jesus summar-
lily threw aside. Therefore He was
regarded as a Sabbath-breaker: and
" Is curious that whenever Jesus
appears in connection with the Sab
bath question. 1t is usually as a
violator OF the existing laws. He
taught liberal view OF the day.
His conduct and words stressed the
truth that the letter killeth. The
Sabbath was never meant to be q
burden to man; much less the
Lords Day which has succeeded II.
The Lords Day Is to be kept in
the Lords Way.
Probably Pentecost fell on the
first day OF the week. Certainly the
Spirit church early came
10 set aside this day as the Lords
Day to be kept rs sacredly as the
Sabbath had been kept by the
Jews.
One great hymn or poem commit
ted to memory each Sunday would
store the mind with priceless treas.
ures. and tinge all of ones ambi
lions.
Like q mountain peak. the Sab
bath Is a place OF outlook. II Is an
opportunity for enlarging the souls
horizon. The educational uses OF
the day are enhanced by every
thought given to the distant realms
where Sabbath is kept by brethren
OF many colors, climes and condi-
tons.
A different day Is desirable. The
first day OF the week should be as
unlike as possible to the other days

LITTLE STORIES FOR BEDTIME

~ THORNTON w. BURGESS.
Peter Rabbit stared across the
pond of Paddy the Beaver. Then he
rubbed his eyes. Once more he
stared and then again rubbed his
eyes. Then he turned TO Paddy and
said in very low voice: DO you
see any one out there by your
house?"

to make sure that there was nothing
wrong with my eyes"
Suddenly Peter kicked up his
heels in the funniest way and then
began a mad dance on the shore Of
Paddy's pond. Paddy stopped eat
Ing and watched Peter with puz-
zled look. When Peter stopped for
breath Paddy spoke. Say, Peter"
he drawled, "are you taken this way
often? You act to me as IL you
were a little light.headed, little
crazy"
"I'm all right, Paddy" replied
Peter. 1--WE found out secret.

secret?' he demanded.
Your cousins; the secret Of Jer-

wouldn't tell what had become Of
Mr. and Mrs. Quack and he knew

"Of course he did. He sent them

"Of course you won't mind If tell

Mrs Quack shook her head de-

We are sc grateful TO Sammy Jay,

outgrow Sunday clothes" and the
other little signs which mark this
day set apart. A Sunday treat"
for the children Is the usage OF
many families. Even the oft-de.
bated Sunday dinner which gath.
ers the whole family about the
board fo- a festal meal, serves a
Sabbath ONCE, as the old Jews rec
ognized. Reading should be diff.
ferent, and music and exercise.
Whatever will signalize this as a
day set apart for singular and ga
cred purposes Is to be cultivated
assiduously.
That Sabbath Is best kept on
which we gain new thoughts about
God. AS we grow In the knowledge
OF the Lord we grow in grace.
The quiet and rest and solemnity
OF Sunday should lift our hearts
nearer to heaven, and make more
real and close TO us the endless
Sabbath in the new home. This IL
one of the good things that each
returning rest-day should bring us
"a clearer understanding OF, and
greater love for. the heavenly life
and the heavenly world.

we have helped make profitable for
