God would !not have lelaced the wonders of the heavens above us and the wonders of the deep beneath us and the woaders of the land about us if he had mot meant us t� explore them and to try lo make the works of his fingers part of pur lives. You never yet met an intelligent man or woman who was not contin.- ually asking questions and striving to understand the unknown. The in- disposition to investigate and the un- willingness to attempt the solution of the problems- of. life about us are al- ways the signs of an intellectual weak- ling. In the spiritual We, aswell as in the political and the mechanical and the philosophical world, the MO word which should be most often spok- en by the huninn lips is "Why?" We- sbould be continvally asking "Why thie?" and "Why that" and "Why the other thing?" The human- mind and soul cannot mark time.

IV the Semitic method they try to argue Cod and Christ and the Bible . out of the minds and hearts of, their fri,:nds._Aitli the intetrogatfon point ttiqy! Nvo-uld advertise to the world their tranecenclental reasoning powers when they are only advertising their t us endent al curiosity. 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. That, would be a very inadequate de- scription of the beauties of Shadyside, which avas limited to, an architeere specification of the details of the home of the father of Americans let. .ters. It . might be absolutely correct 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 this hemiliating recautstime"With s Ogneangratan, it t Itatk Ef.X.POSIT Can cure your Cough or Cold, no question about that, but - why go to all the trouble and inconvenience of looking him up, and then of having his prescription filled, when you can step into any drug store in Canada and obtain a bottle of SHILOH'S CURE for a quarter. , -Why pay two to five &hare when g twenty-five cent bottle of SHILOH whl cure you as Weiner? y not do as hundreds of thousands of Canadians have done for the _past thirty-four years: let SHILOH be your doc- tor whenever a Cough or Cold appear8t HILOH will cure you, and all druggists back up this statement with a positiveguarantee.

I abjure, dune and detest the said -er- rors and heresies (vie,- that the earth moven etc.), I swear that I will never in the future say or assert anything verbally or in writing which may give rise to a. similar suspicion against me. ' 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 icebergs and in all probability were about to die; supposing I -wanted to 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- ' '11." 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 htve been switching yourself off from the main spiritual issuecDo you be- 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 "foolish questions." me, that he will parden all our -sins and thet in him we may have ever- lasting life? • But.. if the areat mysteries of the ffn dn.

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. ' The tra rather ill work, as pelts he 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 might be helped, per s visual afflictionhas ed than interfered with. his ost of the animals whose eke are nocturnal rangers -Meefire.
