Faithful are the wounds of a

Four out of five with their

the world and is bringing her down
to the level of the ungodly; and
as a satisfaction for all this we
are making a great deal out OF
Easter and Lent. 1 believe in
Lent from the top OF my head to

that is through faith in Jesus

it was non-essential for Jesus to

Suppose by your friends, you
mean every man and every woman
who will defend your character

you haven't very many friends that
win double their fists and tell that
fellow he is a black-hearted, de-

Surprising by education, mean

neighborhood Of so odd million of

And so the world goes. Oh! it is
not more men or more money, or
more women, the church needs, it
is more people that are right with
God that the old world needs.
The trouble with the church to-
