in the political and the mechanical

Paul in his epistle to young Titus
advises him to beware of eel:eh frivo-
lous Curiosity. When he tells him to
avoid foolieli questions he is not cir--
cumscribing the intellect of this young
xnan by telling him not to think and
not to investigate. He is laying down
the broad, principle which you and -I
would do well to heed when he said,
"Avoid foolish questions and genealo-
gies and .contentions and strivings
about the law, for they are unprofita-
ble and vain." In other words, avoid
those foolish questions and conten-
tions which have nothing to 'do with
pressing home the great, purposes .01
the gospel. Live only for those dlynee'
truths and self evident Sects which
will draw us nearer, and mares to the
creeps of Jesus Christ.
Paul is eaying, "Titus, my son,
study the spirit of the Scripture in-
stead of the letter of the law." We
should not be among those Bible stu-
dents' who are spiritually nearsighted
and hold their eyes so close to the
sacred pages that they can only see s;
sentence or ti word at a time, and they
do not realize that some of the pas-
sages of Scripture had spedal and
exclusive reference, to the finites in
which they were written and tat the
geographicalconditionsof the Writers.

and its measurements unimpeachable,
but we should miss the spirit and the
-tender associations of the place that
would make us feel that we saw it as.
Irving saw it. And yet some men
seem to school themselves against
studying the spirit of the Bible. They
-read merely the letter of the book.
By reading the letter only they lose
the true purposes for which the Bible
was given as a guide to lei through
this world to the other., '
This fact was conspicuously illus-
trated in the -persecution of the physi-
cist and astronomer, Gallen You are.
familiar with the story of his life. He
was not the first inventor of the tele-
scope, but he was without doubt the
first intelligent user of it. He focused
his eyes upon the kheavens and began
tnefollow the movements of the heav-
era-, bodies. He went on in his inves-
tigations until at last he found out
that the earth *moved around the Run.
"Absurd! Absurd !" cried the Church
of Rome. "The earth does not move
about the sun; the sun moves around
the earth. Does not the Bible tell as
that Joshua halted the sun above Gid-
eon and the moon in the valley of
Ajalon? Away with the heretic ! Away,
away!" Then the scemalled literalist
priests placed the heavy hand of the
law upon Gentlel and would have tor-
tured him to death had he not signed

' I, Galilei, have abjured as above with
my own hand."
The same bigoted stupidity Of the
mediaeval church we can find in the
ohureh ..of the eighteenth and nine-
teenth centuries. The scientists went
on in their investigations, and they
proved that this old planet Was not
(treated 5,000 or 6,000 years ago. It
has been developing during thousands
r non thousands and hundreds of
thousands of years. The Bible, by the
way, does not fix a date for the crea-
.tion. It merely says, "In the begin-
ning." (The dates on the margin are
three of Archbishop lissber, who lived
III the sixteenth century A. D.) The
geologists went on in their investiga-
tone and found eras an1 epochs and
eels, perhaps a million years apart.
Not only. did science prove the im-
mense age of the earth, but that the
&Veen -lent was slow process of
acn. Tbey brought these facts to the
church and said, "Come and see and
efeely." The church thr'ew up ite
hti d in horror. ''What will become
or our Bibles if you prerve those state-
ments true?"- they .exclaimed, "Does
r ot the Bible declare that God made
On earth arid the heavens in six days?
No more and no less," "But," said
Pientific theologians, "perhaps.
the 'day' of God's creation meant itn
ers, not a day of twenty-four hours,"
nit betel cried.the church. "Ansurd!"
A cLy means a day of . twenty-four
home and' nothing else." So the
eta: ren fought the investigations of
f•;oiereci. They fought them t on arid
fo-.7.rdit them, on. The th.eologeans said
- toe eheren, members "Ifl you be -
:Jere tins heresy You are not a Chris-
tian." The result was thet church
(en:tip-Lied to read the first' chapter of
PimefliS as literal history until it
made itself absolutely ridiculous:
They overlooked the essential fact
tleeet the "cite," of the creation is not
a day of twenty-four hours. "One day
is -xith.the Lord as a thousand years
and a thousand' years as one day",
(TT Peter iii, 8).
Now, there is the same disposition
to clay as there was in the mediaeval
church and in the church of the 'nine-
teenth century. Some church members
to -day are trying to stir up internal
rta:Ife by reading .the letter of the Bible
instead of the spirit of the Bible. They
are trying to take certain Bible pas-
eages and twist them- out of all sem-
blance 'of their true meaning. They ele
tbis with the assumed air of great
spiritual erudition and gospel sanc-
tity. When they quote these passages,.
they look at us in a very condescend-
ing way', 'ae much as to say: "Have
you not forgotten such and. such- a
passage? DO you not wish you knew
as much about the Bible as I do?"
We should read the spirit of the Bi-
ble. More than that, we should never
try to solve the unsolveble mysteries
of God an his work, which can never
be solved this side of the grave. Now,
it is a wise men who is willing to re-,
cegnize the fact that there are certain
limitations 'to his mental and. spiritual
facniti,es. It is a wise man ,who is
willing to confess that there are cep-,
tain things he does not know and nev-
er will be able to know this side of
heaven. When you and 1 eome to that
glorious condition of mind and soul,
we shall open our minds and hearts
. to the full enjoyment of the gospel
life. And, my brother, I never Want
you to sit at the feet of any religious
teacher unless he is first willing to
confess that in! his gospel investiga-
tions there are certain mysteries' so
high that he can never scale theme so
'deep that he can never fathom them,
so:wide that he can never Cross them.
We come to our pastors and friends
and ask just the same kind of fooliph
s 0Stions that the disciples asked
Christ of old. We come to Christ, for
instance, and ask : "Jesus, here is a
marl who has :been married two or ,
threeetimes on earth. When he gets to i
heaven, s that Malt going to be a '
Mormon and have two or: three
wives?" Then we begin to make.1
a i
pant remarks about how man s go- .
ing to get along in heaven with two ,
or three wives. You know this is the
question which the Sadducees pro-
pounded to jesus himself. Or we be-
gin to try to solve the resurrection of
the physical body, or we go into a
long and elaborate study of where
Chriet spent his time between the
crucifixion and the resurrection, or we
try to solve the mystery of the Trin-
ity, And i
instead of going ahead n a
brave, noble Christianway, doing the
work which God gives - us to do and
accepting the atonement of the cease,
we fritter away our gospel peace_ and
usefulness by, asking impossible ques-
tions and in trying to solve impossible
mysteries. Now, my friend, why can-
not you follow the advice of Paul?
Why do you not concentrate ail your
faith on Jesus Christ? Why not ex-
cept .hinn at his word and go rth and
work in God's vineyard? Is there to-
day shy_ doubt or raystery in your
mind which caneoutweigh the infinite
fact that Jesus was born the Son of
Gni, that he died to save you and -
-Bible' should net. epat us -from
the love of God, why- ahould the great
divine mysteries neep one Christian
church froroe working in. gospel fel-
lowship with other Christian churthes?
Because one Christian church put$
special emphasis upon one of God's
attributes in its oreeker nractiee
that any reasbn why Other Christiau
churohes which lay stress on apotber
of God's attributes should not affiliate
with that body of Christians or co-
operate with it? Because one goepel
church loves to siag the old psalms
and another loves to use a liturgy
1,rid another church loves to put em-
phasis upon immersion and another
eburch makes the sermon the chief
part of its service is it any reason
whY all these 'Christian. churches
ehoeld not be united in working for
the ,same- ma'am: and for. saination by
the same diyine blood?
When you look over the ogclesiasti-
cal history of the world you will no-
tice one striking fact -the church is
apt to degenerate when it beco es
prosperous. After the crucifixion cine
the dark days of persecutionJ.ut
the growls' a the whin Innate while
crunching the bloody bones of the
Christians' in the Roman coliseum,
only welded that Christen church
closer together. The firese of persecu-
tion only purified it The Christian
church began to grow. Its founda-
tions became stronger.. Aa Ilse early
chureh grew it was not only able to
resist and drive back its persecutors,
but it became stronger and stronger
until at last it was able to lay claim
upon the tempora i as well as the spir-
itual life of the nations. Then the
Catholic pope became the acknowl-
edged spirituit exiler ev,,Attm world.
Then what happened? AS the Ronaan
Catholic churgh financially prospered
did it spiritually prosper? Nay, The
Vatican became a cesspool of sin, The
Bible was a closed book. The torture
cha,inber was the holT of holies. Fla-
grant sin was ev,erywhere in the
church. Then came the divine mission
of a new church.
The reformation came to its birth,
Martin Luther led the fight in Ger-.
many, Sohn Knox in Scotland and
John Wyclif in England. The grasp of
the pope was shaken off, but soon in
the English church came laxity and
in.difference. Another refermation was
needed, and John Wesley and George
Whitefield began to preasis, and Meth-
odism and Congregationalism began
their mighty work. Still later William
Booth has stirred the stagnant waters
with his Salvation Army. So as the
need has arisen God has unfailingly
raised up men to do his work.
Wherever the churches, growing in
numbers and -in financial strength and
power have drifted from God and
turned their Master's templeinto
places of merchandise, **Fever their
preachers have become unlilte the
num.ble Nazarene, then there have
come a spiritual rebirth and a new
church. And to this new church, this
humble church, has 'fallen the task
of spiritually leavening the old church-
es of the world. And, my friends,
11 you do- not believe that what I
Say is true I would like you to an-
swer me one question. If Jesuit) Christ
were to come upon earth to -day, where
do you believe the lowly Natarene
would prefer to preach -in the gor-
geous Vatican of a pope, with his
spotless robes, in the chancel of a
great cathedral and be paid the $75,-
000 a year as its archbishop, or in
some fashionable Protestant church
whose wealthy members sometimes, sit
stolidly indifferent to the great suf-
ferings of mankind? Or do you be-
lieve Jesus would feel most at home
as a street preacher, working with the
humblest workers in the slums? There
can be but one answer. There is but
one self evident reply.. '
Thus I have tried to show you that
you have only one spiritual duty in -
life. You are here and now to grasp
the great doctrine of Jesus' love.
Cease from sectarian differences, stop
frittering away your time and go to
work in his dear name. We can all
be one in unity for the cross. I re-
member many years ago, when in our
seminary we were discussing the sacra-
ments, I said to our professor: "Doc-
tor, iyou say that we must use wine
and limn at the Lord's supper. Sup-
posel were on an Arctic expedition.
SuPpiesing we were caught amid the

have the communion of the Lord's
supper with the men of the ship, and
supposing the only food WS had left
was smile hard tack and some soup,
could I use the soup for the wine and
the hard tack for the bread?" The
professor looked at me a moment xn
surprise. Then he said: "Under such
a condition the soup would be as ac-
ceptable to God as the wine and the
hard tack as the bread.. It ie uot the
wine and the bread that we lift to
the lips vehich make us consecrated
to the Saviour, but the spirit of the
yielding of our own hearts to his di-

The old professor was. right. It is
not by 'ecclesiastical forraulas that you
and 1 are going to come to the cross,
but °illy by consecrating _guy lives to
Christ's will. Friends, you may have
been quibbling in the past. You may

lieve that Jesus is diviiie? Do you
believe that he died bp save you? Will
you accept his offer oi salvation? Will
you here and now consecrate your life
to save men and women by Christ's
blood from sin and death and hell?
"Yea, yea!" you answer. Then pledge
yourselves to him. Having given your-
selves to him and his cause, join with
brethren of any name in work for him
and, following the apostle's advice,
preach Christ crucified and avoid

HAS EYES LIKE OWL.
Daylight Is As Darkness to This Cana-
dian Woodsman.
Because he has eyes like an owl and
is unable to See during the day, Sae -
mice Lombard, of the Lake St, John
district, Quebec, is compelled to do
ali his hunting and trapping at night.
He is the wonder of all the men in
that district and Many doubted the
story until a fur trader named Jep-
son, who was never known to tell an
untruth, went to see the man with
the "night eyes."
As 'Lombard has never visited a
hysician, the cause of his affection
s not known, but it is believed to be
due to an ultra -sensitive retina. What- I
ever may be the- reason, it is certain 1
that ,be cannot stand ordinary light, '
while at night he is able to see well.
The extent of his vision may be judg-
ed from the fact that he shoots ac-
curately at two li'undred yards and
can find a pin dropped among leaves
when the night is so black that an
ordinary man would be forced to
grope his way through the forest. The
darker' it becomes the better is the
; trapper's vision, inoonlight nights be-
ing less suited to his work. When
light is entirely absent the pupils en-
' large so as to seemingly cover the en-
tire iris, while at noon on a bright
day the pupils are the size of pin
points.
Sltortly before jepion visited the
- trapper Lombard was forced by dr-
- cumstances to subject his eyes to
strong light, and the tins were great-
ly inflamed. But this condition disap
peered after he had remained in a.
dark room twenty-four hours" To him
the TOM was light until a lamp was
introduced., when, as he expressed it,
darkness radiated from the lamp.
Tehis explanation brought out the fact
that the flash from a rifle appeared
to him to be a black streak, momen-
tarily clouding the atmosphere, TO
his eyes a searchlight would darken
all objects touchen by its powerful
rays, and the letters of an electric
Pigri would spell in black.

and he can observe their habits with
his own eyes. He has a cabin at. the
°idiot of a small lake, which fame
the source of the River Croche, lying
due west of Dablon. Here Lombarct
sleeps during the day, and commences
his duties at night. His traps are
strung for three miles along the lake
and in the forests adjacent -to it, and
the rounds of them are made while
other trappers are asleep..
While Lombard's Me has been par-
ticularly free -from woodland mishaps,
he has 15.ad some exciting experiences
with wild animals, and on several oc-
casions has been. slightly wounded.
His hurts have never been seriouse
and hie physical health has been al-
most perfect, His one ailment has
• been chills and fever, wlaich come
when the neavy dews appear in the
spring and sumer.
The trapper never lacks for meat,
for he is able to take sleeping birds
without effort. When it comes to cap-
turing partridges it isn't even neces-
sary to use a gun, They can be knock-
ed on the head witb a stick. In fish-
ing he isn't so Successful, as trout sel-
dom bite at night, and even on cloudy
days the light is too strong for him.
Deer are nocturnal, as are moose, but
Lombard says they Ivo easily shot at
,night, as it is then they come to wa-
ter to drink and feed on My pads. In
the daytime they hide' and take their
reat.
Sepson's story differs from former
reports in that the trapper has pos-
sessed "night eyes"' since birtheForm-
erly it was understood that Lombard
had been partly blinded by the ex-
plosion, of a pan of gunpowder and
that therea ter he was sensitive to
I;
light Howe er this may be, itis true
that the tra per's sight is better now
than it was ten years ago. He is about
forty years old, and is thoroughly Con-
tented with his lot, Apparently he has
no inclination to have ins eyes treat-
ed, although he has been told that he
