-One," others, stdeath," other:4 "de-
spair." But to -day 1 warm to. call
the attention to another word, whieh
I. think is the saddest word ever 'ut-
tered by mare , It was that which
King Agrippa, spake te Paul when
on the .Ilotnan tribunal of Caeserea,
Philippi lie said: • "Almost! Almost
thou persuadest me to be a" Chris-
tian." Ah, yes, King Agrippa was
ao near the kingdom of Clod .that
just, •one • Step - forward would ha ve,
changed him from. a pagan int()
humble and repentant follower of lhe'
..°;azarene. But that -one step Was
never• taken, I<AUg Agrippa Was "ale
-most" persuaded to be a Christian!
but his "ahnost" never brought hiil
into safety and eternal life,
.To -day I am going to try to' help
some of you to overcome thate sad-
dest of all words, "almost." 1 am
going to fehoW some of you that.4ike
the scribe of ,my text', who canor to
question Jesus, you are "no!. far -
from the kingdom of Clod," but I
am also going to show ,you that to
be "almost" saved and yet not saved,
is to be lest completely and utterly
lost. As the Man whirling dowo the
rapids of Niagara, who just misses
ler one inch the rope which is thrown
for his rescee, so. you who miss by a
hale the offer of redemption are as
utterly lost as if you had never heard
the offer. Nay, there is in your fate
the enutterable sadness of being so
near salvation and missing it. after
all. The loss of your soul is like the
- loss of life to the hunter whose* rifle
ball just misses the heart of the
tiger that is lea.ping upoo his defense-
lese body. It is to be lost. just as
inuelteas were the poor fellows who
were imprisonea a few o'eors ago in
the iron hulk of the steamers burn-
ing at the- wharfs of Iioboken, in
• New York Harbor. Frapticolly they
'stood at the barred pertheles. Fran-
t•icelly they stretched •forth their
ateUs through the iron gratings. They
could sec the blue waters of the
harbor, They could hear the calls o f„
the woUld be rescuers hard at, work,
But they Were lost, entirely lost„
though there was "only one step' be-
tween them and perfect safety.

'lir Philip Frill:Beim at Cards.
Francie, the Sir Philip Francis whom
many ingenious critics have, in defi-
ance of probability, .trisisted on identi-
fying with the author of the letters of
Junius, was an inveterate gambler.
Cards dominated over the wbole Anglo -
India* society of Calcutta in thoge
days, and many' a crime inflicted on
the unhappy uatives had its origin In
the looses at the gaming table of their
alien rulers,
When in India, it was the habit of
Francis to spend every night in this
amusement, and he found an able co-
adjutor at the card table in the wife of
his colleagues, Lady Anne Illonson,
who was reckoned "a very superior
whist player," Good fortune generally
shone on the plans of Francis! About
1775 be was visited with "am ettraordi-
nary run of luck," so marked indeed
that be had "actually won a fortune.
Rumor, which sometimes exaggeratee,
went so far as to estimate his gains at
30 Ines of rupees.

The British empire occupies about
one-fifth of the surface of the babita-
ble globe and consists of the United
Kingdoxn, with Its attendant islands,
and about forty-three dependencies un-
der separate and independent govern-
ments varying in size from Canada,
which is thirty times the size of the
United Kingdom, to Gibraltar, the area
of which is two square miles. Thus
the area of the British empire is nine-
tyleight times that of the Unked King-
dom, while the area of the self govern-
ing colonies alone is nearly sixty time0
as large as that of the mother country.
