e-in/nth Chuech, Brooklyn, N.Y., preach-
, ed from the following text: "Be not
righteous overnmeli." — King So!omen
in the Book of Proverbs,
Last week a liandsome youth, built
like a giant, and known c,n Iwo cootie
sienis for his medals gained in athletic
contests, was detained at Ellis island,
with' all the probabilities toat he would
be deported to his old homo 111 freland.
Murphy 011ie to New York OA a 11081 -
cabin passengim. and brought with him
his silver cup that ho W011 to the walk-
ing race, the model he reeeived for a
running contest, and various totems
that published his career ne an athlete.
But, strangely enough, when the youth
passed the examining physicians there
was something In les pallor and walk
that attracted the etlenlion of the United
Stales Marine Physician, who ordered
young Murphy to be scot to Ellis Island
for careful physical exemination.
.The Board of Physicians reported
that in over -developing his heart and
his speeding modes he had atrophied
tiae other muscles of his body, and
worn the heart out by compelling it to
force the blood through the groat,
thick bunches of muscles in the legs
and arms. It seems that there is a
type developed called 'Lite over -athle-
tic type."
His excees ruined him. By foreing all
the blood and food to one part of the
body he slowly robbed the other
organs. Yel all the time Nature was
storing up her penalties. Al last the
retribution has eoine; the sword of
Damocles ho fallen. Nature whispers
"too much." The two -hundred mile run
has ended in a hospital. That is a
brief resting place in sight of the grave-
yard.
ALL EXCESS FATAL.
The world is full ol examples of ex-
cess. Men over -emphasize a good thing
until it becomes an essential evil. The
wise man said even of goodness : "Be
not overmuch righteous." Moses saw
that it was a good thing to keep
the Sabbath for brooding. song, prayer,
worsbip. family love. Being a good
thing. the old Hebrews straightway be-
gan to extend the law, until they would
not wear shoes on Sunday lest they
thresh out the grass seed in walking
across the lawn. They would oot kindle
a fire to warm the broth for a dying hi -
valid, lest they break the law of work.
Moses said to a man who had stolen
sonic sheep that it was a good thing Lc
sacrifice one of his own lambs as an
outer sign of his inner sorrow, and
also to send home all the sheep he had
stolen. But, It being a good thing for a
bad man to sacrifice a lamb to show
that every sin costs something, in a
little while the Hebrews became so
overmuch righteous thin one day a
Hebrew king killed 20,000 sheep and
burned them. and every time a rain-
storm came up ihe Hebrew farmer be-
gan to soy: "How many lambs must
I kill to keep God from sending a cloud-
burst to the hillside?" Prayer was a
good thing in reviewing the events i1
the day, 60running lo an.excess, the
Pharisees began lo make long prayers
on the streets and carry around a cane
on which they cut notches every time
they said a prayer an hour long.
Finally Ihe religion of outer sign and
sonmel had developed illip a complex
system of rules and sacritices, and
kneelings end risings that broke faille
down by iie very hulk. In outer ob.eer-
vanes they ',coil, over/mot righteous.

Jesus versus Pharesaisas—In his
journey southwardtoward acruselem
Jesus was in almnst constant conflict
with the Pharisees who had long since
taken a decidedly hostile attitude to-
ward him and his work in public.
Shortly before the events of to -day's
lesson he had in strong and unmis-
takable language artninged as hypo-

MAN DItteSSIVIAKER OP PARIS.
flis Methods of Wor- k—How He Gets
an Inspiration.
The dressmaker is a slim young man
with a long nose and big, winsome
eyos. \Veering a grey Crock coat and
patent leather shoos—corseted and pow-
dered and perfumed—he is more than
O man; ho 1 a dressmaker. He is
saturated with dandyism. It is not of
an offensive kind.
IPs mannees are a strange mixture
of humility and insolence, for he is at
once a salesman and an artist. And he
talks, talks, talks—bending his slim
body into polite curvos—gesticulating
with bis thin white hands—rolling his
eyes In their painted orbits, the while
he fumbles silks and velvets and satins
and lace and wool.
The mere man who comes into Et
dressmaker's shop of an afternoon—in
Paris no one goes to the dressmaker's
save only ire the afternoon—begins by
sneering at this fantastic creature.
That mood does not last long. Con-
tempt gives way to admiration. There
is something marvellous in the way
lids lord of lace and ribbon dominates
the women—the royal highness as well
as the spoilt actress.
He is charming; he is frivolous.
Then of a sudden his face darkens; lie
becomes serious; he stares at her royal
highness, studying her from hoad to
fool ; he smiles his brow and cries de-
spairingly,:—"No 1 no 1 I can't see you
in that gown—to-day. I can't see you
In any gown—I will study—an inspira-
tion will come—you must wait.". And
royally goes away flattered, she knows
not why.
SURGICAL MARVELS.

wound In Um wall of his heart, causcd
through the lad falling ort a hay fork.
Carefully following the course of the
wound, the surgeon sewed up the pone -
