'THE WAY TO THE FATHER First Learn to Assist the Helpless, Help the Needy and Comfort the Wronged. "First be reconciled to thy brother end then come and offer thy gift." --Matt. v., 21 Men in the days of the great teacher were as we are to -day, prone to com- pound fur the neglect of defies near at hand by the adoration of spiritual de- lights far off. They talked about getting right wile (',od while they continued to d., %•ring to men. The problem of tete hypocrite who is so thrilled with the de- lights of heaven jhat he scorns earthly duties and decencies is not a new one. How easy it is to substitute syllogisms foe service, to think that we do our duty by describing it, so to exhaust oneself in pleasant and seductive dreams of a dis- tant heaven that we have no power left to apply to the problems of a needy pre- sent day world. The mockery of religion to -clay is that men and women are going to the churches, singing themselves into ecsta- tic complacency and imaginary harmony will' their God while their greed is crush - leg the hearts of the helpless and they are blinding themselves to the world's gloom and pain that unhindered they may enjoy spiritual delights. Things cannot be right in ot.r rela- tions to the Father of spirits until they are made right in our relations with OUR BROTHERS IN THE FLESH. In Christianity social righteousness is basic to spiritual blessing. The ideal kingdom waits for -ideal conditions and relations amongst its subje"ts. The way to tite Father lies through the Brother. if you wot,ld learn to love God —and how indefinite and idealistic that seems to most of us --the leeson is sim- ple, first learn to love his other children, especially the helpless, needy and wronged.

The revival wo ►Host of all nerd today is a revival of the social conscience, the recognition of the fact that w -e can offer no gift acceptable, in the temple of wor- ship or the place of prayer, unlit we have washed our bends from the blood of or.r fellows, that we can pay nothing to God until we have in earnest set about pay- ing our debts to men.

Many n elan is going away and coin- ing away empty in heart ; perhaps he his given np any hope of finding solnco in religion, who would find, as it were, the windowe of Heaven opened up if he should give himself for an hour to mak- ing some other helpless lives happy, to righting some wrong er bringing some joy to lives embittered and oppressed. We have been insisting on the church, the altar, the ritual, and all the forms of religion. asking hearts hungry only for things and spirits swept by winds of covetousness to enter the plane that be- longs to the pure in heart and the lowly in spirit. What shall it avail those who car, see nothing of God In their fellow men made in his likeness to try to find him in FORMS AND CEREMONIES, in architecture or furniture? The happiest people in this world have not been those who have shut them- selves off from this world that they plight, in quietness, seek gut the source of the soul's life and see the face of God for themselves. They are those who seemed to turn their back on oratory and temple, and, burning wide a passion of love kir men, found heaven as they sought to bless earth. The pathway to God is a plain one, strikingly lacking in romance, with no l attendant visible angelic choir. It is the 33.

Temperance --The lesson Setting.— The word "temperance" means literally self-control, self-restraint, or moderation, and this is the aense in which the great New Testament writers have used the word in many different passages. Thus the translation of the American Standard Revision makes AcLs 2.1. 25 reed : "And as he ;Patel) reasoned of righteousness, and self-control [King Tomes Version, temperance?, and the judgment to come, Felix was terrified" (compare also 2 Pet. 1 6). The practical experience of man- kind. however, has dernonstrated the fact that alcoholic liquors in every form are a most treacherous beverage their influence on the physical organism, even when moderately used, being to create a craving for strong drink. The element of risk, therefore, even for the moderate drinker, is greater then prudence war- rants one in nssuming, and the only safe course, as experience has abundant - Iv proven is to be found in total absti- nence from the use of alcoholic drinks. Ileuce the word "temperance." so far as alcoholic liquors ere con- cerned, has corse to mean "total ab- stinence." The apostle's nrga.ment in ..ur lesson passage is tench profounder and bleeder than a there attack upon the roils of strong drink, touching, as it done. both the philosophy and practical value of self-restraint and moderation in alt Things which pertain to the carnal nr physical men. 11 we: the apxostte Paul himself who tial !minded the church in (:nrinth, the ce r,g:regation consisting ]pertly of Jews and partly of Gentiles. As was natural in a Grecian city, runny of the members of the church had been but recently con- verted from idolatry and heathenism. 1' was natural, therefore, that many gt,esliouis should arise on which the Jewish and the Gentile members of the church would disngree, and else that Some disorders should creep into the practice of the church. Reports of these disagreements and disorders reaching tete apostle after his del allure from .(i-u•inth, prompted hire to write n letter of admonition and council to the Corin- thian converts.

Disastrous Effect of War With lapan— Cliinese no Lonj'r Ilonor Russians. Russian plan of reconstruction in the Far East now appears to be based on fear of China. Notw•ittistanding a lack of money, Russia is endeavoring to greatly strengthen her Siberian borders. The effect of their loss of prestige with the Chinese, especially the Manchuri- ans, and the breaking away of higg!h mandarin beneficiaries, despite tt►eesub- sidies paid then!, together with the lofty attitude of China, now that the Japan. ese are regarded ns hectoring% and te.w•beating Them, powerfully impresses the Russian people. All the Russians forrnitly employed cin Saghalien hove abandoned the .tap anese there, though they tyre needed In variou.; industries. The frontier line Ai Saghalien and Corea is strictly milt- tnry. Russia's contentions regarding the fisheries have been disregarded and the negotiations for joining the Russian and Japanese rnilways al Kwang; Cheugtsu have failed the Japanese con- ducting both along their own lines. The Russians declare their inability to com- bat Japanese advances or Manchurian interests. NUT ON WORKING BASIS YET.

The tenure of Government rnilways and other peaceful methods used in tha pest to csteblish Russian trade or meet the new conditions in Manchuria, has forced Itussian vested interests stere to nppeal for the introduction of foreign enterprises. which it is expected, will constitute a harrier to the Japanese. INDEFINI'T'ELY POSTPONED. in Siberia, the double -tracking of the railway has been indefinitely postponed and the Government is devoting itaaelf solely to correcting Russia's original strategic lines on ttie frontier, as shown by the re -survey of the Arnur Railway north of the Amur River. It is plan- ned to connect the Amur and Baikal roads, giving protected communication le Prirnorisk in case of accident to the exposed Trans•13nikal Railway or the loss of the indefensi.ne Manchurian ltailn•a}'. The itussier' Ministry of War Is in- augurating a generous policy of explor- ntion In Western Manchuria, Mongolia find the Amur 'basin. but the Govern- ment is subsidizing business in Mon- golia only onside of the Japanese sphere, its purpose being to strengthen !tussis against newly inspired Chinese aggression. ---'sr Ninny o WO rnan lin been cowed b_ the milk of human k:neli e.ss.
