basis of right practise. Love accords
to every porno his rights and does
even more than is ordinarily rogurded
re giving to others their rights. Love
leads its possessor to be kind to those

Christian's duty to refrain' from
avenging himself. His practise must
be uniformly kind and helpful to
others. He must be peaceable and al-
ways considerata Even his eneznies
have claims upon him. He owes them
kindness and helptulness. He will be
going in the direction of winning his
enemy if he shows him. love and char-
ity.

This chapter breathes the spirit of the
Sermon on the Mount. It is rich and
benign in practical exhortation. Devo«
don, fellowehip and disciitline are its
characteristic features. In present-
ing the general and comprehensive
principle' of practical Christianity as a
spiritual renewal, 'beginning with the
centre and spring of man's being,
Paul adopted a manner. of gentle and
affectionate persuasion toward the Ro-
mans. He declared that the presenta-
tion to God of themselves was the one
great act in which all specific acts of
obedience were summed up and in -
solved Hie language implied that
compliance with his admonition was
not an optional or indifferent matter.
He regarded justification as an initial
step which must be followed by a "go-
ing on to know th,e Lord." Since they
only who hal obtained mercy could
present a living sacrifice, Paul embod-
ied the whole of Christian life in that
one master word sacrifice. Human
character and life is treated as some-
thing to be formed and fashioned by
the pereonal will ander the Spirit of
God, the mightiest of all powers to
transform. The foundation. of .all
transformation of charaeter and con-
duct is shown to be laid down in a re-
newed mind, from whichmthe inevard
life shapes the outward conduct,
where inward consecration is mani-
fested by outward sacrifice, the sacri-
fice of the whole man in the dediea-
don of himself to God, thue including
the activities and energies of the body,
soul and spirit. By "the world" is
meant everything In it which is an-
tagonistic to the truth or the life of
God in the soul of man. It is fallen
humanity acting out itself in the hu-
man family, moulding and fashioning
the framework of society in accord-
ance with its own tendencies. Christ-
ianity addressee Itself to man as he is,
a citizen of the world, having wOrk in
the world to do. Instead of unfitting
a man for a place in the world, trans-
formation enables him to live in it,
appreciate the Worth of it and exercise
an influence over it.

Toronto Report.-eOlitario's mine
prodUction for the first nine months
ebis year shows a gain of approxi-
mately 37 per cent., as compared with
last year. The Cobalt district silver
mines have definitely establishee their
supremony of the eources of the
world's supply of this mineral, Not-
withstanding the war, welch Ilas
closed the keiropcan inareets, the
shilnliente et Cobalt oxide were much
greater. both in gnatitity and value,
than in the rirst nine Months of 1015.
It Will be observed that metallic Cobalt

The eittreardinery rise in the priee

Tho entire Belgian population, the
narrator said, is terrorized, because
the people realize they are entirely
helplese. Crowds of hysterical women
and children gather at the railway and
recruiting stations, and many women
at Jemappee threw themselves.on the
rates to prevent the departure of a
train of emigrants, and had to ,ba for-
eibly removed by German soldiers.
The men are frequently loaded into
cattle cars, and spend one or two
days on the journey, They are etrong.
ly determined to refuse to work, be-
lieving that it they are employed
in military works they will be cone -
pelted, to replace Germans, anti be
forced to work, directly or indirectly,
againet the Relgiatt arntY and its al-
lies. The deportee men in trains Pees-
1ng through Liege are declared to
have been heard singing the "Mamie.
'else," and other patriotic airs.
The newspapers report a case near
Valenciennes et sixty Frenchmen wbo,
impreseed by the Germans, refused to
work, and are declared to have been
tied to posts for 48 hours, until half
of them fainted from hardships and
hunger.
Many prominent Belgians are re-
ported not to have hesitated to risk
their liberty by the strongest of pro-
tests to the German authorities
against the deportations. Various of -
tidal bodies have drafted resolutions
of protest, and the Senators and Dep-
uties of Antwerp and HainauIt prov-
inces have taken especially strong ac-
tion in the premises, and are said to
be daily expecting deportation.
Neutrals in Belgium, especially the
Ministers, are receiving many appeals
to try and induce their Governments
to intervene. The newspaper La
Libre Belgique, which has maintained
a wide circulation throughout Belgium
for more titan a year, despite the al-
leged efforts of the Germans to die -
cover it authors and suppress the
sheet, has published a special number
containing an appeal to the neutral
nations. •
Ing worked. There are dressing plants
at Renfrew and Ottawa, the latter op-
erated by the Dominion Mines Depart-
ment. Ferro-molybdenitenum is also
being made at Orillia and Belleville.
The supply of molybdenite throughout
the British Empire has been reserved
as a war measure, and a price of 106
shillings per unit fixed for concen-
trates .delivered at Liverpool. This
approximates $1 per pound.
The mines at Cobalt continue to
produce, though on a slowly dimin-
ishing Bath,. The number of five
ounces contained in the fillipMent of
the nine months was 975,538 below the
figure for the same period last year,
but owing to the much higher prices
Out( have prevailed for silver the re-
turn to the mining companies was
719,571 greater. Oliver started the
yea? at 46.76 cents per ounce and rose
to a maximum in May of 74.27 cents,
when it ieceded to 63.06 in Julymatch-
Mg 68.51 cents again in September. In
1915 the 'monthly average was 49.75
cents per ounce. From the gold ores
treated during the period 66,347 ounces
of silver were obtained, and from the
copper ores 607 ounces.
