A despatch from Brussels, via London, says: The Germans sus- pended the bombardment 'of the Liege forts on the right bank of the river and concentrated all their efforts on those les the west of the town. Fort Ponesse and the neighboring forte resisted extreme- ly well the fierce Germae attack, The Germans have been trying to rush Pontisse by main force, no longer relying upon siege artillery. They have beee unable, however, to get beyond the glacis of the fort, where they have been, mowed down by the Are of the defenders. The besiegers weee provided with bun- dles of wood and mattresees with which to fill up the ditches about the fort, but they were unable to make USD of them. Fort Lie, which is just west of Pontisse, has lent effieacious assistance to the latter fortification. The object of the Germans obviously is eo seize the forts on the left bank of the Meuse, which. in the hands of the Belgians would be terrible weapons against them. On, the other hand, these forts in the heads of the Ger- mans would serve as a base for ac- tion directed againet the Belgian centre or for defence against the Belgian attack. The atteck is de- veloping great fierceness, the Ger- mans being mowed down at every attempt' to carry the fortifications. Terrible German carnage resulted froni the last attack.

In so far as -the attractions are :con- cerned, the ,eplendid bill announced earlier still.stands, the only change being that the Grenadier Guards Band will necessarily be absent. However, its dates have been filled by the engagement -of a number of the beet American hat -isle, and there will still be a dozen band concerts daily with the famous Creatore featuring the bill.

Ali his trans- gressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him :in his righteousness that he hath done, he shall live." --Ezekiel xviii., 21, 23. There are few moral injunctions which are snore important than this which ishere laid dawn by the pro - *het Ezekiel, and few also, it must be added, which are less frequently observed. God perhaps May be able to pardon abundantly, but man seems to Seel that he must ever hold in memory the transgressions Of the wicked. What is more impossible, fox example, than a girl who has "gone wrong" to rehabilitate her- self 7 What is more difficult for a man who has had a prison record to 'win and hold a position of trust? If a girl has taken a single misstep her character is gone -forever; and if a man has been guilty of a single misdeed this most remain a perman- ent blot upon his 'scuteheon. It makes no difference -how long ago the offence was committed, or how irreproachable he been the record since this one unfortunate moment of weakness or revolt. The sin is here and its atonement must be a matter Not -of Tittle Rut of Eternity. Now, it is in denunciation of the injustice and cruelty whicli are in- volved in such an unforgetting and unforgiving attitude as this that Ezekiel lifts his voice in our text. This prophet, like all the prophets af ancient Israel, was moved al- ways by a high sense of justice. He believed it to be,as right as it was inevitable that no sin should pass without retribution, and no sinner escape from the wrath of the Most High. Indeed, his whole philosophy both political and religious, was founded upen no principle more deeply than "the way of the uegod- ly shill perish." And it was just becanse of this high sense of justice, and not at all in spite of it, that the prophet inveighed against the ten- dency of good men to forgive and forget noehing in the life of the of- fender. For what can be more un- just' thae to force a man to pay the penalty of his crime not once but a thousand tim-es? What can he more eruel than to foebid him all oppor- tunity. of trust because he has once gone wreeg What, especially, can be more inhuman than to "men- tion" a man's transgressione "unto him," when he has long since turn- ed irons his sins and is -doing his ut- most to keep the ."statutes" of Gall If a man deliberately sows the wickedness, 11 ±2 only just that he should reap the harvest of his sowing. But it is aleo only justs when this harvest, has been reaped to its last dread tare of misery, that the account should be elosed and A New Page Opened. Right is surely greater than any , wrong. One good deed must cer- tainly be able to outweigh a nsyriad transgressions. "Have I any pleas- ure at all that the wicked shall die," saith the Lord God, "and not that he should return from his ways and live?" Such is the law not merely of mer- cy but of justice -such the rule net merely for God but for men! First, the evildoer shall be given the op- portunity to turn from sin and "do that which is lawful and right." Secondly, if he uses ;'se opportun- ity, he shall not die in his sin but live in his righteouseess 1 "So long as men work for evil," says a great leader of our day, "smite them with the sword of the Lord and of Gide- on. If they change, and prove by their actions the sincerity of their conversion, then work with them, lotting bygones be bygones." -Rev. John Haynes Holmes, Two Meanings. The different. meanings that a simple turn of expression can give a worci. are often Curious and some- times Demising. An anecdote of Charles Lamb, the famous English author, illustrates this very pleas- • On a wet, miserable, foggy day, in London, he was accosted by a beggat with: "Please, sir, bestow a little obes- ity upon a tmor, destitute woman. Believe me, sir., I have seen ,better days."' "So have L" sind Lamb, handing the poor creature a shilling, "so have I. It's a miserable day, even for London.'' 'A similar illustration is of the man who saw some mischievous boys carrying off his fruit from his or, chard. "Whet are you about?" he pall, ed "About going I" called one of them, as the marauders disappear- ed over the fence. No man can talk quite so elo- quently as his money, The trouble with some people • is they. have their work in one place and their thoughts in another. .....racnaueomecestreamswearmllemtcremilmaza IS MILD, PURE, APPETIZING just the Beverage for the busy man: - rests the nerves and ensures sound sleep. 11 not sold in your neighborhood, write JOHN LABATT, LIMITED LONDON - - CANADA irtW' Special arrangements for direct shipment private consumers.
