Two Types Of WEAKNESS.
The words Of Jesus suggest weari
ness of two types, which may be de
scribed as active and passive. Somi

George Whltefield was so oppressed
by sense Of guilt that he lay fol
hours at a time on the floor OF the
public house where he worked; and
John Bunyan has pictured himself In
the "Pilgrim" with the great bundle on
his back.
But, no matter what form Of weari,
ness may trouble us, Jesus offers rest
to "all" who labor and are heavy
laden.
First he says, "Come unto me
end will give you rest" This we
take to refer to that rest OF con-
science which he bestows as a gift
on all who come to him. This settles
their position eternally and they are
"safe in the arms Of Jesus" What n
great boon this Isl John Wesley
found It only after he had been an or
dained minister for years. He was on
his way to Georgia as missionary to
the Indians when a dreadful storm
arose. He was frightened, but found
some simple Moravlan Christians sing
ing through the storm. Even the wom-
On and children were not afraid to die.
Wesley discovered they had learned
the secret of peace by trusting in
Christ alone for salvation, and he be-
came a seeker for the same rest Of
soul. He found it at last, and as the
result the Evangelical Revival was
born. To come to Christ is to believe
on him, to trust him (JOhn $780, To
all who thus come he gives rest Of con-
science.
But many who have this gift are
still oppressed from day to day by the
cares of life. To them Jesus speaks
again, saying, stake my yoke upon
you and We shall find rest unto your
souls.r This deeper rest, which Is
found by taking his yoke, is well
worth our attention.
1t may be well to ask the question
what is q yoke for? The answer II
found in the reference Of the text t
a burden" The yoke is to enable
an animal to draw It's burden. More
over, the burden Will be flight" onl!
when the yoke is "easy." It is Jus
as when, amongst us, the horses col
lar is rightly adjusted and vel
padded: the animal then finds 1t eas!
TO draw its burden, but otherwise it
shoulder is CALLED and 1t refuses to pul
the load.
Here now we are coming to the prac
teal point. Jesus tells US the YER
things we need in our yokes to max
them easy so that the burden Of If
| viii be light. "Take my yoke upo
you" he says, "and learn Of me, for
am meek and lowly in heart" Il
because we lack meelmess and low
Iiness that the yoke gals and th
burden Is heavy.
Yokes are made for two and thos
who wear Christ's yoke may assur
themselves that he himself win joul
ney beside them, contributing his grea
strength to drawing the burdens thG
oppress them.

When General logan propos-
ed to take certain funds and de-
vote them to education on the
basis of the illiteracy Of the sew
eral states Senator oseph L.
Brown of Georgia proposed that
thse funds be divided to the sew
eral states and left to their dis
posal without limitation. That
meant simply this IN Georgia;
Spend larger amount on Off
Gals, make a large donation 10
the State University or college,
establish a normal school, and
let a pittance, perhaps, reach the
common masses. Such unholy
work God must condemn. and it
exasperated all good men.
There are no such chances for
education TO the poor boy and
girl in the South as in the
North. The states containing
one-thifd of the population of
this union contain also more than
two-thirds of its entire illiteracy.
The crying need of the South was,
education. The worst phase Of
the picture was that while the
rich men OF the North had learn
ed that the education Of the
masses benefits the rich them
selves, the rich Of the South
would not recognize this fact and
act upon it.
The education Of a people af-
fects materially their religion.
An ignorant and debased people
are apt to take forms and feelings
for the essence Of religion, in
stead of heartfelt experience
and the practice OF morality
And vice versa may say that
the religion of people great
ly affects their education The
higher, the purer the religion.
the better, the brighter, the
grander has been the education
Of the people. The baser the
more false and superstitious the
religion, the deeper the people
have sunk in ignorance, degrade
ton and misery. Both Of these
statements are pointedly Illus
trated. Here religions teachers
for generations advocated and
defended slavery as scriptural
and right A religion that could
tolerate, let alone defend, this
wrong, lacked very much IN pu-
rity, and must fail in properly
educating the masses. 1t led.
naturally, to class distinctions I:
to the education of the ruling
class and the degradation of the
rest Then, reflexly, the unedu-
#eated are naturally superstitious
aud take superstition for relig-
ion. They take outward express
sion, noise and shouting, for re-
ligion. a very religious negro,
according to their IDEAS Of relig-
ion, could steal chickens.
Nc one could expect that the
teaching Of two hundred and ff-
ty years could disappear in a
day. Large numbers of those
apparently converted this year
have TO be reconverted next,
Other results are wild excesses,
eccentric actions and strange eX-
pressions in religious services. A
great revival is often an anus
ing occasion, and a clown IN a
circus would moi do more anus
ing things than may here be
done in the name of religion.

morality We're divorced; YET The

South is better than the North.
There are few deists, no atheists,
and the scriptures are generally
accepted as authentic. The main
trouble is with their duties to
man. Here they fall short here
education is needed. Education
and better form Of religion
will make a wondrous change.
Among the most prominent re
ligious denominations are the
Baptists, Methodists and Presby-
terians. This is their order in
numbers. The Baptists are diyid
ed into Hard-shell, Missionary
and Free-will Baptists. The
Hard-shells preach against sing
ling schools, Sunday schools, edu.
cation, temperance, the support
of the ministry and the sending
ont Of missionaries. They believe
most heartily in all the old Cal
whistle doctrines.
Numbers of the associations OF.
the Missionary Baptists were al
most as bad. j know this 10 be

lijay, IN July, 1877, for murder
committed while drunk, said that
he did not know that it was
wrong to drink whiskey, for the
ministers often stopped at his
lstill-house and drank with him.
There were ministers who owned
still-houses.

deacons tried to force Daniel 10

refused. and left for fear they
might overpower him. Deacon
Walters became so drunk he
could no longer stand, when Rev.
Pickett held him up while Dea-
con Smith poured more whiskey
down him to sober him This
same Rev. Pickett was so ignor-
ant that he could not read a pas

PATIENCE MD STRENGTH

Among the ten war commandments for the women of America proposed by the womens committee of the Council of National Defense is this one: No matter how long the struggle may last await victory with pat fence and strength"
 Wise counsel is this and timely. We must not only conserve our strength but we must increase it. We must consume no part of our vital energy the tfng things which divert attention in peace times but we must con- centlate on the big and little things vital to the winning of the war.
 The counsel applies to men with the same force that applies to the women to whom is addressed and to big boys and girls also Upon every American engaged in any activity there has been imposed the duty of eX crng strength to the endthat victory shall be achieved How this may best be done for each individual to deter mine but all American strength must be unified for the exclusive purpose of winning victory and nothing should be permitted to interfere with the eXerton of this unified strength.
 Patience must be learned and the learning is not easy Relatively few of us are endowed with the quality ofpatence probably rarer quality in our own land than in the other countries Patience spells perseverance it is exalted hope and we need to cherish it. Let every loyal American engrave on the tablets of his memory: No matter how long the struggle may last await victory with patience and strength"

WELL. ARE YOU!

Are you civic mendicant receiving the meQuaed benefits of American citizenship without giving anything but the taxes forced upon you? Are you civic winner always complaining about the way they who govern you do things despite the fact that "they is really you?
 Are you a civic coward afraid of losing worthless friends or of interfering with business if you call atten ton to inadequate school administration the street cleaning or in other portion of the public service?
 Are you civic sneak trying to avoid just taxation by evasion downright dishonesty and thus putting upon your neghbor part of the burden which is yours? Are you civic waster considering that the water supply the food and fuel you buy the service of collecting garbage and refuse the cityS parks and in general the community service for which you pay do not pay to be used less carefully than not related to the present needs of the fighting world?
