But though the east side of No*
York city may be the home of the
poor and, in many places, of the so-

seen- upon the streets a most re-
markable funeral. That day 15,000
human heart§ were etching. At least
800 men were walking in lino behind
that hearse. There were sixty Oen-
bearers, every ono of whom to more
or less extent was indebted for his
health or life to the man whose
body was then sleeping in the •cae-
ket. "Who is this man about to h0.
buried," asked an eyewitness, "a
king or weeder, a statesman, an
orator,: a governor, -pity official?"
He Was a plain, simple phy-
sician. He was a ,Dr. Aronson, who
had given' sip his Whole life to work
among the poor, He not only cared
for the sick body but also for the
sick soul. He had inherited a small
fortune from his father, and when he
entered the homes of the destitute
he would leave here a little and there
a little along with his preccriptions.
While he lay sick hundreds and thou-
sands of poor people whom he had
befrieaded came to inquire at his
door. They knelt by hundreds in
the street about his house, praying
to God to restore to them their
good physician. When he was 'dead,

HIS LAST RESTING. PLACE.
Dr. Arenson was only a beautiful
type of Luke, "the beloved physi-
cian." Paul would never have writ-
tenso tenderly about him unless Dr.
Luke had been that kind of a man.
In imagination I can see Paul com-
ing to his room at night and say-
ing: "Where is Luke? Where is Dr.
Luke?" 'Men some ono would an-
swer, "Paul, after you had finished
preaching to that great audience
this evening and Luke had closed the
seraice with prayer, some one told.
Dr. Luke about. ail old Christian
saint who was sick and could not get
out to the service. Then Dr. Luke
immediately said, 'Why, I will go at
once and see her.' So he took along
his medicine bag in one hand and
his Bible in the other. He told me
to tell you not to sit up for him. He
did not know when he could get
back." "Yes, yes," half disap-
pointedly answers the missionary;
"that is just like Dr. Luke. I never
seem to be able to have him at all
for myself. He is always calling
upon some one that is poor and sick
and in trouble. My, how tired he
must get!" Then some morning I
see Paul wake up. He looks over
to the other side of the room, where
a bed is all mussed up and yet with-
out an occupant. "Well," says
Paul, "I. guess Luke is off again on
one of his calls. I do hope he will
be back in time to take ship for

PHYSICIAN'S OPPORTUNITIES.
But as I go on showing to you
young medical students the golden
opportunities of future usefulness
which the consecrated, ten talent
doctor can wield 1 must here and
now halt. I must stop lorig en-
ough to show you that great .oppor-
tunities for good always imply
great opportunities for evil. Some
two years ago I attended one of the
Rosh inedical classes and heard
there a farewell address given to the
graduating class by Prof. D. R.
13rower, a distinguished specialist on
nervous diseases. It was a brutally
frankand direct address in• many.
ways. ' Its blunt statements again
and again evoked derisive laughter
through taearaised tiers of seats All-.
ed with students. But as .I went
home I said to myself: "Dr. 'Brower
is right. An honest, skillful physi-
cianis one of 'the noblest works of,
God, but an unprincipled phyaician
is one of the most despicable, loath -
seine and cowardly recreants who
ever breathed the . breath Of life,"
When the hand bonefielerit in healing

you not to , prove false to your

ders into year caro the life and the

Physician.- I once heard of a re-
formed drunkard who was supposed
to be dying. The physician by. his
bedside said, "The only medicine
whieh ca,is . cure you is alcehol."
Then the wife., who set near and
had lived through the horrors of be-
ing a drunkard's wife. turned to the
physician and said: "Doctor, if the
only medicine which can save him is
alcohol, then 1 refuse to let hien
live. Yes, let him die sober rather
than live drunk,"
MEDICINE'S CHIEF TRIITaffP1-1S.
But the purpose of the medical
profession is not only to Make the
sick well, but also to prevent the
well from getting sick. We are all
ready to agree that , the chief duty
of the good lawyer is to keep his
clients out of court. Why should WO
not be remiss' to confess that the
chief puipose of the doctor is to
keep his patients as long as possible
orielioin?

That the chief triumphs of the me-
dical Profession •have been Won dur-
ing the last century its the 'preven-
tion of disease rather than. in the
cure there is no doubt. Haw have
the groat plagues, which used to
,sweep over Europe..been halted? By
the power of the sWorri? • No. By
the pelwei of the bacteriologist's

Why is the longevity of the human
race being increased year by year ?
13ecaupe people do not drork ,as hard
as they used to work ? Oh, no. An
average man to -day goes through
niore hard work and nerve exhaus-
tion and excitement in a. week than
his grandfather did in a whole year.
The longevity of the human race is
increasing in spite of -the strenuous
life We lead. It is increasing be-
cause the doctor, year by year, is
telling us how to eat, how to dress
and in what kind of houses we
should live.
Young men about to enter the
medical profession, you are soon to
bo one of the great band of teachers
of physical hygiene. Can you not be
a leader in spiritual hygiene also ?
Your calling opens for you the door
of many homes. It not only opens
for you the front door, but also the
closet door, in which hang the
bleached bones of a family skeleton.
You are to bo the recipient of the
heart's secrets as no one else in the
conulinnity. You will. have your
finger upoa the pulse of a cosnmun-
ity ancl. Wilaultimately know whether
it beats • sinfully fast or sinfully
slow. Will you not say the right
gospel word to that young man who
is doing what ho ought not to do ?
Will you not speak a warning word
to that wife, that a mother, that
child, who may be drifting into sin ?,
They will gladly take Christian ad-
vice from you, which perhaps they
would not take. from a minister.
They may say, "A minister is mere-
ly working for his salary," but they
will know that you aro disinterested
in speaking the name of the Lord
Jesus. In Christ's name will you
not try to prevent sin as well as to
cure sin alter it has already come ?
But, though you may declare that
since you have •entered the medical
school you have not lived a Chris-
tian life, yet there are still two or
three
TREMENDOUS FACTS
that, I think, ma.y work a change
in you, two or three facts by which

sician. In the :past place, I • know
That you came' faoin a. Christian

homes., As soon as a father and
mother become converted their chief
desire seems to be to give their
boys a liberal education. so that
they can make the most out, of their
lives for Christ. Thus, young man,
no matter where you go or what
you do, you can never get away
from the many parental prayers
which have been offered in your be-
half. They are always tugging and
pulling you toward a better lite.
They are pulling your heartstrings
now toward Christ.
In the next place, you are not a
homeopath in a spiritual sense. You
may be a disciple of Hahnemann, as
many of you are, but in a spiritual
sense you are not. In the realn of
the higher life you do not believe
similia similibus curantur, that
"like curet like." You do not be-
lieve that "sin cures sin." Oh, no.
You know and you feel only the

ourer and holier life is dawning
upon you. I feel that all the good

LONDON FOG.
and Marshes Help to Keep
the Air Cold.
London clay and Essex marshes
are two factors which help to keep
the soil and air of East London
cold, and so to condense the vapor
in the air till it turns to fog, says
the London Spectator. But as fog
requires particles 'Of dust to be a
nucleus •for each vaporation, the
smoke and soot which in the still
weather that always accompanies
fog cannot be wafted away provide
such a fine "vehiale" for the water
to condense on as to give London
the very first place among fog -ridden
towns, though the centre of a good
Leeds fog is, if anything, rather
stronger in bouquet and fine keeping
quality.
We certainly have net -in -the- least
improved away any portion of our
London fogs. Consequently it may
be guessed that we do not • know
everything that is to be known
about the story of the mist. While
no one can give.a proper explanation
of the remarkable way in which a
fog helps to fill a pond, raising the
water inches in a night, it can hard-
ly be expected that the movements
and, if 'we may say so, the shapes,
of fogs should be fully accounted for
either. Fog will come across a bright
sea like a solid upright wall. Oc-
casionally it does so in London, too,
though, as the city is mainly cut
up by streets and we are walking in
each 'at the bottom of a- kind of
crack, the march. of the fog wall is
seldom noticed before it is over the
observer. Last winter such an ad-
vance fog was seen in Hyde Park,
with great distinctness, It was a
sunny afternoon. with a gentle
southeasterly breeze, when the wind
changed to the east, temperature fell
and a 'sena black wall smile -thou-
sand feet. ,high was seen coming up
and advancing along the Serpentine
as if someone had hung by a black
blanket, and was sweeping it for-
ward, held up at each corner by in-
visible hands, like' the veil in some
Hebrew prophet's vision. There was
ice on the lake, though not strong
enough to skate on, and the bottom
folds of the fog blanket were seen
curling up and rolling like a pull of
dark smoke. It travelled fast and
soon overtook the onloOlsere with
its partial eclipse. This "steepness"
accounts for the local character of
fogs. It may be black in the Strand
and sunny in Cavendish Square.
EXPENSIVE SALT -CELLAR. '
No less than $15,000 was paid at
Christie's, in London, for a stand-
ing salt -cellar. It is the finest
known of its kind, and dates from
the time of Elizabeth. Of silver -
gilt and rock crystal, bearing the
London hall -mark of 1577, each of
its three parts is engraved,em-
bossed, moulded with xnasterly pre-
cision, and a fine sense of beauty.
Each part is in the finest state ' of
preservation. The , salt -cellar turns

Tho Revised Version says in the

Margin says, "We for Mini." The
Revised Version says in the second
part concerning the Son. "Through
whom are all things, and we

lesson, "Christian Self' Control,"
suggests that a 'Christian ie one
whom Christ controls and not self.
Itt the first place, a Christian it a
sinner wbo has been washed. sancti-
fied and justified in the name of the
Lord Jesitili, by ills precious blood,
the Spirit having .coavinced -of sin
and reyealed Christ (vi, 9-11), All
such are to recognize that hence-
forth they are not their OWa, but
have become by His purchase tem-
ples of the Holy Ghost, and are
now to live unto Him whose we are
and' whorn we have been redeemed to
serve (Acts • assail, 28; /I Cosa v,
15). We have no greater enemy,
next to the devil, than the sinful self
that remains IA us oven after we
receive Christ, and many do not
seem to learn that lie who delivers
us from the Wrath to come is able
also to sae us from our sins (I
Thess. 1,10 ; Matt. i, 21).
• 7, S. But meat commerideth its not
to God,for neither if we eat are• we
:the better, neither if we eat not are
we the NirOS0'.
The only. gods whom the heathen
know are such as must be, propitiat-
ed with gifts, and many Christians
seem to have no better idea. of the
living and...true God. That we must
give God something in order that
Ho may do spmething for us or that
We must refrain from something in
order to win His favor seems to be
such a common thought, but it is so
unscriptural. it is trite that God
accepts Our loving service and is
Pleased with gifts that -come from
loving and grateful hearts, but we
must first see that He gives us all
things freely in Christ before He
expects or can accept anything from
us (Rona. iii, 24; viii, 32; Eph.
3). As to eating or not eating, our
Lord Himself taught that not that
which goes into the mouth, but that
which comes out of the mouth, de-
files the man (Matt. xv, 17-20).
9. But take heed lest by any
means this liberty of yours become
a stumbling block to them that are
weak.
Many things that are lawful for us
may not be expedient (1 Cor. vi, 12;
x, 23), for none of us Bereth to him-
self, and no ogen,aietia- taliaineeale
ikntlawa-mussraim neater to be nor
to put a stumbling block in an-
other's way (Rom. xiv, 7, 13). Yet
if all who refuse to consider the wel-
fare of others are to be classed as
children of the wicked one the num-
ber to -day is 'very, very large and
, would include the names of many of
I earth's great ones, for the man who
gives "the other fellow" much con-
sideration is considered rather weak.
This is not to be wondered at
'Among the people who live only for
this world, but it is most unChrist-
like when seen in Christians who
should ever be found seeking the
welfare of others rather than their
own (Phil. ii, 8, 4).
10-12. Through thy knowledge
shall the weak brother perish, for
whom Christ died, but where ye sin
so against the brethren and wound

There are many weak ones easily
offended, and those who are strong
must her the infirmities of the weak
arid not please ourselves .(Rom. xv,
1, '2). Christ died for all, and His
redemption is sufficient for the whole
world, but becomes efficient only to
those who believe or truly receive
Him. 3.1 the inconsistencies or un-
Christlikeness of a believer turn one
who is somewhat interested away
from Christ instead of drawing more
fully to Hint, that would seem to
illustrate verse 11. But it is well
to consider also a perishing that is
spoken of in chapters iii, 15; ix, 27
-the perishing of one's works or
service while the person is saved -
.saved as by fire, scarcely saved (I
Pet. iv, 18), escaped with the skin
of his teeth (Job xix, 2a), the flesh
destroyed by Satan, but the spirit
saved in the day of the Lord Jesus
(I Cor. v, 5). There is only one
foundation, Jesus Christ, and who-
ever is truly on that foundation can
never perish (John x, 27-29; Phil. i,
6); but every believer is a builder
and is daily building that which is
comparable to gold and silver and
precious stones or to wood, hay and
stubble, the former being uninjured
by fire, while the latter perishes. A11
that Christ does in us and through
us will stand, but all that self does
Will prove wood, hay and etubble.
Paul knew that his soul could not be
lost (II Tina i, 12), but he also
knew that his works Melt be dis-
approved of or rejected, and this he
desired to avoid (1 Cor. ix, 27).
18. Wherefore if meat make my
brother to offend, I will eat no flesh
while the• world standeth lest I
make my brother to offends
Or 'as in Rom. xiv, 21, "It is good
neither to eat 'flesh nor to drink wine
nor anything whereby thy brother
sturnbIeth or is Offended or is made
weak." The chief business of the
Lord's redeemed is not eating and
drinking, but ia right relation to
God, our . neighbore and ourselves,
righteousness, peace and joy in the
Holy Ghost (Rom. ails, 17): As
Christ 'came to give life, and to give
it more abundantly, so we must not
be content with merely having life
through :His blood, but we must be
filled with His spirit as a tree is fill-
ed with sap and as the body is filled
with blood, every part permeated,
and seek the same far others (John
X, 10; 1,101..v, 18; 1 Tim. vi, 18).

Sir Henry Campbell -Bannerman,
tho leader in the House of Commons
of the Liberal party, ' is an excep-
tionally good French scholar. It is
reported that he has probably read
more French novels than any other
gentleman in the British Legisla-

ever, Sir Henry can be taught very
little respecting the writings of a
number of his fellow -countrymen, in-
cluding Sir Walter Scott and Robert
Louis Stevenson. •

During recent years Mr. Joseph
Chamberlain has, in his public
speeches, made many quotations
from the works of Dickens, proving
that the author of tke "Pickwick
Papers" holds a high place in his

a close follower of all printed mat-
