Bloodof Christ.
A deapatch from Washington says;
De, Talmege preached from the
following text ;--"Anal the priest hall
command that one of the birde be
killed in an earthen vessel over run-
ning water. As for the living bird,
he shall take it, and the cedar -wood,
and the ectirlet, and the hyssop, and
shall dip themeand ,the living bird in
the blood of (-bonnier] that was killed
over the running water ...and he shall
sprinkle upon him that is 'to be cleans-
ed from the leprosy seven times, and
shall pronounce him clean, and shall
let the living bird loose into the open
•field," Leviticus xiv. 5-7.
;The Old Testament, to very many
eople, ea a great, .slaughter -house,
e aewn with the blood, and the bones,
and horns; and hoofs of butchered ani-
mals. It offends their sight; it dis-
gusts their taste ; it actually nause-
ates the stomach. 13ut to the intelli-
gent Christian the Old, Testament is a
magnificent. cOrridor through which
Jesus advances. As he appears at the
ether end of the COrriclipT WO can only
ea the outlines of .His charaeter ;
owning nearer, we can descry , the
feature.s. But When, at las t, he
istepe 'upon the platform of the New
Testament, amid the torches of evan-
gelists and apostles, the) orehestras of
'Heaven announce Him with a blast of
minstrelsy that Wakes up Bethlehem

plunged for cleansing in the Saviour's
blood. There is not enough water

As this second bird of the text Wa3
plunged in the blood of the first bird,
50 we must be washed in the blood of
Christ, oe go polluted for ever.
I notice now that as soon as this
second bird was dipped in the blood
ot the first hien, the priest unloosen -
edit, and it was free—free of wing
and free of foot. It could whet its
beak of any. tree -branch it chose. It
could'peck the grapes of any vineyard
it c oset was ree, a type of our
souls after we have washed in the
blood of the Lamb. We can go
where we will. We can do what we
will. You shy, "Had you not ,better
qualify that?" No; for I remember
that in conversion the will is chang-
ed, and the man will not will that
which is wrong. There, is no straight
acket in our religion. A state of sin
s a state Of ilaveiy. A state of
pardon is a Eitate of emarempation.

Why is not a mao free whon he gots
• rid of his sins? The sins of the
tongue gone; the sins of tiction gone;
the sins of the Mind gone. All the
transgressions, thirty, forty, fifty,
„seventy years gone—no more in the
soul than the natilaria, that floated in
the atmosphere a thousand years ago;
for when my Lord Jesus pardons
roan lee pardonShinai and there is no
half -way worle about it.
- The next thing I notice about this
bird, when it was loosened, and this
is the main idea, is, that it flew away.
Which way did it go?'When you let
a bird loose from your grasp, which
way doe a et: fly? Up. Wha t are
wings for? To fly with. Is there
anything in the ,suggestion of the di-
reetion taken by that • bird to indi-
°ate which Way we ought to go?
I wish, ray friends,' that we could
liee in a higher atmosphere. If a
man's whole : life -object is to make
dollars, he will be running against
thosewho are making dollars.' If
hisvViaole object is to get applause,
he will be running against:
those who are seeking ap-
plause. But if he rises higher than
that, he will not be interrupted in his
flight heaveuward. Why does that
flock of birds, floating up against the -
blue sky so high that you can hard-
ly see them, not 'change ita course for
spire or tower? They are above all
obstructions, So we would not have
so often to change , oar Christian
course if we lived in a higher atmos-
phere, nearer Christ, nearer the
throne of God. ' -
Oh ye who have been washed in the
blood of Christ—ye who have •been
loosed front the hyssop-branch—staet
heavenward. It may be toasome of
you a long fight. Temptations may,
dispute your way; storms of bereave-
ment and trouble may earik.e your
soul; but God will see- Yon through.

fections on things in heaven, -not on

ASYMMETRICAL FACES.
"One of tile prinoipal obstacles in
flf:e way of successful portrait photo-
graphy," said an old time expert, "is
the asymmetry of the average human
face. The features_ of ninety-nine peo-
ple out of a hundred are undeniably
asymmetrical— in other words, the
right and left sides are different in
size, shape and general contour. We
don't notice this variation unless our
alltention is attracted to it, but it is
there all the same, and for spree rea-
son that I am not able to explain. it
is generally emphasized by the -camera.
