' THE GROWTH OF CHRISTIANITY The Christian 411eligion • IS • Mightier To- day Than It Ever Was Before -Ins - fidelity Is Not Half So Blatant in Into Present Day as It Was in the Days of Our Fathers. • Washington, July 7e-A1theiugh Dr. Talmage was hinderiA from attending the great . ammo], meeting of the ChriStian Endeavor 'Society at • Cin- cinnati, his sermon shows hina to lea in 'sympathy with the great. movea ment; text, Amos ix, 13, '13ehold the days come, saith the Lord,. that th.e plowman shall.oxi;ert ake the reaper.' Unable becattse' of other important duties to accept the invitation to lake part in the ;great convention of Christian Endeavorers at Cincinnati, begun last week,.

Or., to turn to the agricultural figure of my text, more than a 'million reap- ers are overtaken by more than a million plowmen. Besides this, there are more people who believe in the Bible than at any time .in the world's existence. An Arab guide .was lead- ing a French infidel across the des. - ere, and ever .and anon the; Arab guide would get- 'clown in the Sand and pray to the Lord. It dis,gusted the French infidel, and after awhile, as the Arab got up from one of; his prayers, the infidel said, "How do you know therals any God?" And the Arab guide said: "How do 1. know that a. man. and a Camel pass- ed by our tent last night? I know it by the footprint in the sand. And you want toknow how I know whe- ther there is any God? Look at the sunset. Is that the footstep of a man?" And by -the- same process you and I have come to understand that; this book is the footstep of God.
