Jesus points us to the common
flowers of tho Mild and urges us to
consider them, for they have a mes-
sage for the soul of man. Through-
out the ages since Jesus spoke these
words, Clod has boon. planting ITis
garden in the fields, and the fragrant
blossoms, as they lift their bright
faces upward to receive the sunshine
and tho rain, have been in their own
sweet way bringing to man God's
Message and helping to interpret His
written word, What a picture our
text brings before us, Jesus seated
on the green-carte:led slopes of the
hillside, the gooup of faithful dis-
ciples wheel He has boa just formal-
ly chosen to fellow Him in His min-
istry, standing behind Hiin, while be-
fore Him and on either side the
eager, attentive, expeetant multi-
tudes press to hear Him. And Jea-
ns, looking out upon that multitude,
sees the anxious, careworn and
hungry -looking faces behind which
010 starving, unsatisfied souls were
keeping their vigil. He feels the
throb of that restless life; He lcnows
the anxious thought and trouble
which follow relentlesely at the
heels of those people like an evil
Nemesis; He understands the work
and struggle which go on day after
day -the anxiety for the necessities
of life and the fretting for tho V100.-
81/308 and luxuries. And that Jew-
ish multitude gethered about the
Saviour in tho -Galilean hills was no
different from. the multitudes of to-
day. There are the some anxioes
end careworn faces; there are the
803110 hungry, unsatisfied looks
breaking forth from the starving
soul; there are tee same worry, tho
some discontent, the same feverish
pursuit for the perishable things of

which ouo' text brings before ns, and

heart, wonld have broken. In that
human need and soul -hunger before
Him there was naught to cheer His
hear1 or bring glacfness to the Di-
vine eyes. But that was not all Ilo
saw. The grass and the lilies of the
field were there. Ho saw them, and
they spoke their sweet message of.
(locl's faithful care as the Creator
and of their glad and humble faith
nnd trust as the dependent creature.
But the multitudes did not see.
Ruthlessly and thoughtlessly they
crushed the grass and the scarlet -
robed lilies under their instiess feet.
They were pressing forward for they

alone to drink in their ,beauty and
to .fin the passing moment with fra-

simply to admire them and raptur-
ously gush over their graceful out-
lines and their extplisite colorings.
Not to examine 'them witli the scieli-
tine eyo and regard them an so many
more specimens for the collection.
Slot to regard them as the boentifia
model to 13e painted into the land-

Not any of those, Jesus was not

"Consider the lilies of the fielcl,"
because they speak of God's faithful
care, because they reveal a sweet
faith, a humble trust, a willing obe-
dience and a glorious iniselon. Clod
tlio Creator on His part giving to
the little plant all it needs. And
the created thing on Its part pa-
tiently, trustfully, humbly waiting
within the circle of the Divine will,
there to be made glorious and beau-
tiful; whother dt is sunshine or
storm, whether it is the chil1 and
dankness of the night or the scorch-
ing heat of the day. And "if 008
cloth so clothe the grass of the field,
which to -day is, and to -morrow is
cast into the oven, shall He not
much more clothe you, 0 ye of little
faith?" There Is vital and intimate
relationship between God and the
lilies of the field, but between God
and man there is the barrier of lin-
belief, of disobedience. of
WILLFUL IMPATIENCE.
Between God and nature there Is a
cordial fellowship, but between God
end man that fellowship has been
severed through man's forgetfulness
of God and his mad, eager rush after
the things of this life. And do not
think the lilies are speaking to your
heart God's message as you think
beautiful and sentimental thoughts
of God and nature and prate about
God's care and love universal. The
lilies speak a heart-searching mes-
sage. It is one man does not like
to hearts it is one which his heart is
not seneitive to tinderstand. Think
you that you have heard the mes-
sage when you rush back to the city
and plunge with greater eagerness
than before after the material things
of this life, anci worry and fret be-
cause they do not come faster, or
become discouraged and morose be-
cause of the misfortunes and priva-
tions of life? Think you that you
have lieard tie message wlien, the
fields behincl you and the paveineat
of the city's streets beneath your
feet, you forget God and the lilies
and seek first man and mammon, and
care not so much about method as
that the coveted goal is reached?
The proof that the message bas
been heard and understood is fauna
in the seeking first the Kingdom of
God and His righteousness, and
proving the truth of God's assertion
that all else needed for this life shall
be added. And as the beautiful
dress and fregrzinco of the lily which
God so freely gives it make it a
creation of exquisite perfection, so
man 111 character and life would be
as •beautifully clothed nnd provided

His righteousness first and nian's de-
sires and seeming interests second.

A STRAIGHT TALK TO YOU.
Why Your Past Life Ha.s Been. a
Failure.
If you are the victiin of failure,
and are wondering why you have not
succeeded as well as many of your
acquaintances, R. might be well for
you to cast a retrospective eye over
your past.
It is, of course, more agreeable to
la3*. the blame of all your misfortunes
upon Fate; but yom future will
stand a better chance of being brigh-
ter if you discover what part of it
lies in youreelf, and learn how to
overcome circumstances, and change
environment.
Perhaps yog have begun ten things,
and novor finished one, and have for-
med slipshod methods of thought and
action, which aro the real cause of
all the failures. You can do twenty
things after a fashion, and nothing
well. Yet .you wonder why you have
never found your place in the world,
and why your many capabilities have
suet with such lioor reward.
Or, still worse, you may he a vic-
tim of the By and by" and "rime -
enough" mottoes. Alas for the poo -
pie who are always "going" to do
things! If you have an ambition or
PurPose in your mind, act upon it
at once. There is not an hour to
waste. Do sometheng towards begin-
ning. Rouse yourself from the leth-
argy of dreams, and make a start 00
facts.
It is wonderful what power comes
of that beginning. The road to suc-
cess lies olong the path Deoisive, and
up the hill .of .Endeavor, and across
the bridge of Patience.
