(:or. vii., 21. The religion that will not stand the strain of modern business May have been good for some other age; but it is 4 alueless in this one. The test of your piety is not peace m the pews of the church, but power and direction in the stress of the market, Its adaptability to y our acleities as well as your medita- tions. Religion is guilt for business. The only creed that Ls worth a rnomen: s thought Is n working creed, that is, one teal gets into action. Religion is not the mere acceptance of a speculative philosophy of this and other wotSds. It consists in principles, ideals, and mo - fives which dominate conduct. It is more concerned with the kind of a world you are staking here than with the con - C. ptions you may have of a world be- yond. Religion is more than an institution; it Is a course of life. It has to do with the church only in so far as the church serves its purposes. It is more concern- ed with what a man pays Jtis employes than with what he puts into the plate at tho collection. The man who can put all his piety into the prayer meeting and the servlces of the church never has enough seriously to embarrass hits UNDER ANi' CIRCUMSTANCES. If for your religion you have adopted principles of high living; it you have set tho worth of the soul stove all other things; if you have determined lo franie your life acceding to the golden rule of the great teacher, and. with him as hero and ideal, are seeking to do good to others and Snake this world a better place for us all with less of sin and sor- row and more of joy and love, you will Blake your business as well as your praying the servant of the ends.

They ore entirely yield explanation, and would be be/0 belief if they rested upon mere asset. lion; but as all of us, unfortunately, have tested lltenl by' our o\fii senses, we accept them with wonder, and with some show of resignation. Take an important branch of house- keeping -cooking. Dow inexplicable aro some of the results of culinury study. A certain woman had kept house for thirty-five years, anis had never had a servant, and had during That Time, as she informed us, "baked twice a week regu- lar." Consequently, to get Into the sta- tistics of the mutter, bread has been baked in that eetablishrllellt 3,6tt) time.. Deducting 250 for occasional sickness or absence of the mistress (a large allow- ance. for she was healthy, and seldom went from !Nene), and we have 3,400 limes That this woman had made and baked bread. She used good flour, and yet her bread was invariably damp, sticky. and no Christian stomach could possibly digest it with comfort. Nov, surely, this was a wonderful thing. Br what methods could she have avoided in thirty-five years' practice learning how to make good yeast, how nluctl to work the dough, how long it should stand to get light, whit Temperature the oven should be, and the proper Ieegih of lime to hake it? Dow could she help doing it right the three thousandth four hun- dredth lisle? It would seem that a vast amount of lator would be necessary to d;, it badly. She was a woman of aver- age sense, and no doubt conscien- tious. Another woman, now over 50 years of oge. has cooked, more or less, since she was 12. Sho has a special liking for lamb chops, and has cooked Mem very many times. And to lies day, she serves up liver -colored chops, fried, and swim- ming in a greasy liquid. Merely looking at them will give a right-minded person the dyspepsia. This woman has ellen lamb chops elsewhere, cooked according to 1110 best civilized methods, and has praised them, but (itch lime she return- een:nely to her frying pan and grease. Now. upon what hypothesis can llsLs 1e explained? Can it be possible that there are human beings so constituted that (heir Minds and bodies act independent- ly, so that the sensation of taste has no mental effect whatever? For in these instances the rcults were not the results of carelessness or indifference -They both thought their hdrrid abominations were feasts for theg tds And not he least curious thing in these casts is, That these poor moles have sharp eyes for the faults 'of the butcher and the baker.
