"Then 'drew near uteto WM all the
pethlicane, and -innerz foe to hear.
"—Lulte xv 1•
That the Church and the 'World aro
drawing further apart is' a common re-
mark. -
We do net belieite that the schism is
4 as wide as many Uinta nor. do we be-
ef Iieve that it ,ds growing. The church,
beyond all:- denial, is exerting a pro-
found influence upon the' age, and" the
world is no ,slower to -day than ever to
respect religion that bears the marks
of sincerity.
Nevertheless, it is true that there is
far more of such an alienation; than
...there should be. Our text shows that
Alie ease was not such with the founder
of the Christian religion. There was
nothing in His /Winner, or words r
life that repelled the multitude. But,
:says the inspired historian, "Then drew
near unto Him all the publicans and
sinners for to hear Him:" And these
were the very ones who most needed
HIS DIVINE COUNSELS!
Let us ask, then, why it is that the
(aural too often seems to „fail in getting
-into such living touch with the world
as to transforrn it as it should.
First, because of- the attempt to secu-
larize its message. This ise the aerie°
tof pulpit charlatans and •sensational-
Ists. In order' to draw the world they
e pare off all the distinctive marks of the
church. They withdraw' the claim of
:divine authority for its teachings..
.They repudiate the supernatural in its
;origin and history. They sceuere all its
-tettets with a narrow reason, so that
;there is left no sphere for the larger
texercise of faith,. If the world wants
, anything it wants the real gospel, the
lword of life.
•I. Another reason, no doubt, is. the fail -
01 church members to illustrate the
'religion they profess. Very true, the•
World is too exacting here. It forgets
that church people may have many in -
amammilimommoism.
'consistencies and In Many respects
show the ,oento WealuitesSe,s .as others
and yet bo sincerely pious. "
Still, religion must radically "change,
the nattete. It mut malte One a iaetv
creature. It must give one a new was,
ter Motive. And, whefl L10 deur& doee
not show itselt a nursing another of the
graces , of love andl humility and .un-
selfishness and brotherhood the world
has a right to question its elating.
A third and chief reason for too fre-
quent alienations is an incorecce and
unjust presentation of religion. ' To
many spheres of life which the world
rightly regards as innocent the chorea
is often made to take
A HOSTILE ATTITUDE:
A chasm is forced between piety and
the ordinary ways of life, Temperance
is confounded with abstinence. Liberty
Is labeled with the tag of license. The
spiritual life is divorced from the na-
tural. To come to the church men are
asked te deny what Is justified by their
common sense. One-sided religionists
overlook the fact that a man can legi-
timately love and enjoy .life, art,
beauty, pleasure, without loving pod
the less, bOt only the more.
Nor do these austere notions truly
represent the historic church. In her
true, worldwide character she has al-
ways been characterized by broad,
liberal, rational and joyous concep-
tions of that piety which is pleasing to
God, who is love, and who as a Father
rejoices in the happiness of •His chil-
dren. -•
,,Let, then, "tire children of light be
wise in their generation" toward the
worldly and unsaved.. And let the
world abandon itsmisconceptions and
prejudice's as to genuine piety 'and, the
world and the church meeting together,
religion will prove to be that benign
power for righteousness, joy and son -
ship of God which it was meant to be
by its eternal Author.

way a total of 150,000 deaths from tub-

Prof. Albert Robin has established
from the statistics of 1901, 1902, and
1003 that tuberculosts increases in en
almost regular proportion to the density
of population. In Paris, for example,
the percentage of deaths from tubercul-
osis is 45.2; in cities ;if 100,000 to 492,-

table, 'the first portion ,of Which we

visit to the home of one of the chiefs of
the Pharisees belongs, as we noted in
our last lesson, to the period of the
Perean ministry, probably some months

very similar to this one, namely, the
Parable of the Royal Marriage Feast
(Matt. ,M 1-10). The parable in Matt
thew is a comment "of Jesus on an at-
tempt to arrest him, and tells of rebel-
lious subjects of a great king put, to
death for insulting and killing -their
sovereign's messengers; the parable in
eeur present lesson is a cerement of
'Jesus on a remark made by, another

forfeit the good things to which they
