The Herald, 1907-06-21, Page 3Congregation Delighted by Novel Easter Address. Easter Sunday morning was celebrated at £bcllester Parish Church, .Newcastle - on -Tyne, by the unusual form of a ser- mon preached in verse. In a series of ,Spenserian stanzas .the rector, the Rev. Dr. J. George Gibson, discussed the text, "In the garden of a new sepulchre," and created something of a sensation in his congregation. The following are the first stanzas of the sermon: How sweet the phrase each burial ground that calls • A. "cemetery" that is "Sleeping -place!" Where, out beyond the noisy city's walls, Our dear one's rest while, past their earthly race, They bask in presence of their Father's face, Waiting the summons of the Judgment When Da theyand we shall once again em- brace, And re -unite life's closest bonds for aye! Ah, who sueh meet.i ;reek most warmly —we or they': While speeds the city on its reckless course, The Cemetery rests in peace profound. While yields the city now to fraud, now force, The Sleeping -place is always holy ground Where're appears the tiny grass -grown mound, The coarsest nature feels a sense of awe. The birds appear to sing with softer sound, 'As if the symbols of repose they saw. This reverence for the grave is Nature's solemn law! Not far from Calvary's ill-omened slope, Were gardens, and in them a rock - hewn cave, Where wealthy Joseph had indulged the hope That he himself might one day find a grave, The Sacred Form from contact rude to save, He laid itreverently there to- rest, Now let the rough world round about Him rave! The secret convert had achieved his best, And Christ, as sang the seer, lay 'mid the wealthiest. The sermon was very closely and at- tentively followed by the delighted con- gregation. Prayer. Our Heavenly Father, who in ancient days didst lead Thy people like a flock and didst deliver them from the wrath of their enemies, we also would commit ourselves to Thy guidance and protee- tiort. When the road is dark and we know not how we should go, send forth Thy light and Thy truth and let them lead us. When barriers lie across our path which we are not able to overcome, make Thou a way for us, as Thou didst part the sea for Israel. When our faith grown weak and courage fails, speak to us words of cheer, sustain us by Thy promises and by the touch of Thy gra- cious Spirit, that we may go forward ac- cording to Thy will and may follow wherever Thou dost lead. Finally, when we stand face to face with death, let Thy presence still be with us, that the fear of the last great enemy may be taken away, and that we may pass ppeeuueefully and triumphantly into the land of promise. Hear our prayer for Jesus' sake. Amen. i.4:.I13Lf 'tatantat :ayrn:;n If Ye' 9fll Do The, Painting Yourse get .nmS-EIVs slat' I you intend to have ft insist that the painter ilnen • g� .a It ora'sa They; -,-6'•0 farther --last 1o3ger—hold heir freshness and beauty longer—and. cos' less in the end ---than any. other good paint you can buy.

Some things which we may wish for ourselves we may have to give up for the sake of those who look to us. for example, and who will be greatly in- fluenced by what they see in us. Try to Influence Them for Christ.— This should bo the final aim of all our relations with the youth of our homes and our churches. This should never be out of mind. All that we do for them should have this for its ultimate goal. It is a crying need of our cnurehes that the young are too much neglected. They are committed to the tivaday school and the Junior Endeavor, while the church authorities give them little or no attention. Yet they need the ten- derest care, the most careful nursing, that they inay he saved while 'young from the burdening effects of indiffer- ence and pracrastination, and bo influ- enced to give themselves joyfully to Christ. 'Put Yourself in His Place."—This motto, good for all classes, is especially applicable to children. Too many act ;as if they had forgotten their child- ' hood. They seem to have little syn- ' pithy or patience with children and youth. But both are essential to help- ing the young. One cannot have the confidence of the young who does not : sympathize with them; and without their confidence little help can be ren- dered. In order to sympathize with them, it is necessary to enter into their state of mind—to realize the value of their trials, their sorrows, their expecte- !tams, their disappointments, and what- ever else may befall him. He who does tale may Hope to be of real service to ' the young., None else can. Teach Them Right Views.—Children must learn, and they are susceptible of ',, being taught. It is of the utmost im- 'po9tance that they be taught correct views of God, of themselves, of the no,- . tura of sin, of duty, of the Christian life, and the way to live it. Too many are left to absorb their notions from others, who are illy prepared to in- struct others, because of their own de- fective knowledge. It would be a bless- ing to every church if the younger ones were collected into classes for specific instruction in the fundamentals of the Christian religion and of Christian life. :Such training would be of incalculable avalue for the future of every such eon- gregation. It would make it easy to !secure the children of the church for 'Christ end His services when young, and prevent those long delays and uncertain- ties incident to many of them. Set Them a Good Example. Teaching will go a very little way unless backed up by the right sort of example. "Teach= ing by example" is the best way to :reach anyone, especially the young. l Here is a field in which every Endeav- orer may find something to do. Let • him be careful that what he does puts . no stumbling -block in the way of some younger person. If eve have the con- fidence of the young, the more easily Hear:. we lead then, in paths of righteous - nese by what we are, by the path in Our Best. There are some who shrink from un- dertaking work which the roaster gives them to do. They are not worthy; they have no skill nor power for the deli- cate duty. But to all their timid shrink- ing and withdrawing the Master's gen- tle yet urgent word is, "Do your best." They have .only to kneel in lowly revere enee, and pray for the beloved Master's sake, for skill and strength for the task assigned, and they will be inspired and helped to do it well. The power of Christ will rest upon them, and the love of Christ will be in their beasts•. And all work done under this blessed inspiration will be acceptable to God. We have but truly to lay* the living sac- rifice on the altar; then God will send the fire. We need to get this matter of conse- cration down out of cloudland into the region of actual, common, daily living. We sing about it in our religious meet- ings, oft -times in glowing mood as if it were some exalted state, with which earth's life of toil, struggles, and care had nothing whatever to do. But the consecration suggested by the living sacrifice is one that walks the earth, that meets one's actual duties, strug- gles, temptations, and sorrows, and that falters not in obedience, fidelity or submission, but follows Christ with love and joy wherever He leads. No other consecration pleases God—J. P.. Miller, D.

I tbougnt I was in the King's treasure house, a large and ample place. Men in authority were present and servants acting their part. Large vases stood in rows, tier above tier. At one end I saw a wharf with shipping, and all was busy. flags of different nations were flying at the masthead, with all the bustle of a busy port. All seemed busy but one, and he ap- proached and seemed willing to com- municate. I inquired about the con- tents of the treasure house and the im- portations. "I am not permitted to know all. Indeed, but very little, but these massive vases have a history whirl. is very precious: Go and look in- to one of them." The fragrance was that of a garden; which the Lord had blessed, "You must not reckon by the bulk, but by the excellency of the con- tents. Gold. well refined, the most pre- cious potent factors in the universe.." The rarest, most costly jewels may not compare with their value; their worth is beyond computation. Each golden bowl or vase has a distinct history, and a name is attached to each, though you do not see it. The refining of these contents is a marvellous performance. Yea sec that fleet at the wharf.

When the Psalmist said: "It is good for axe that I have been afflicted," he was not talking cant. He had reach- ed the point in his earthly career at which he could look back upon the pre- ceding years and see them—much es God. sees them—ns a tWhole. He could appree3ate the atter of the temptations which he had met, and the necessity of sharp warnings at this point, and of actual scourging of the soul at this point,in order to prevent his straying, or to rescue him, already strayed from the way of safety. 5aele aa, retrospect of life is granted to oath of us at times, and it is full of instruction. It teaches as a tremendous truth, the need and rise of unhappiness.

There is rather a better tone to whole- sale and retail trade in some lines. In- drygoods, However, the cold wet spring has done considerable harm. The millin- ery trade has been particularly affected and nothing but the speedy arrival of hot weather will save many retailers from losses on lines of light blouses and such goods. The hardware and the gro- cery trades have not been affected to any great extent. In the case of the former the demand for all lines contin- nes exceedingly heavy. The activity in the building trades throughout all the country and also in general lines of man- ufacture anufacture will keep this branch of trade brisk indefinitely. As an aftermath of the 'longshorenxen'a and carters' strikes here work at the port is being rushed night and day. Toronto—There is no doubt that at last the late spring is beginning to have a marked effect upon the dry goods trade. The retail trade has been suffer- ing all slung, but wholesalers have not had so much reason to complain as they have been busy sending out delayed ship- ments of goods. The continued bad wea- ther, however, will represent consider- able loss to the wholesalers of this cen- tre. It is reaeonable to expect the sort- ing satisfactory, notwithstanding Pie backwardness of warns weather. There is no sign of apprehension regarding the business of next fall and whiter. On the contrary, ordering on that account hes been exceedingly heavy. Some dry goods houses report the .f. all business already booked as fully 100 per cent, better than that, of last year. This confirms. what ,nae been stated to the effect that the end of the winter found retail stocks of goods light in all parts of the. country. Values of textiles and general lines hold firms. The grocery, trade is active and in both this line rndustres of the Pro- rime centimes unabated and orders for almost all lines of goods are heavy. Hamiltou—Spring and summer trade is quiet in all lines of dry goods but in other branches of trade the movement is active. The demand for hardware and groceries is particularly heavy. Collec- tions are fair. London—R?hile :some lines of trade are affected by the backward spring general conditions are mostly satisfactory. All brancheeef local industry are exceeding- ly xceedingly active. Country trade' is fair and col- lections moderately good. Ottawa ---'.Che late spring 18 responsible for the slow movement of many retail lines. Country trade has also a quiet tone. Collections are in some cases at lit - tie slow.

In reply to our reporter, Mr. Hata' ris related the early stages of thee s attack and subsequent suffering l which he experienced, and while befi did not court publicity, decided that.; in the public interest he would release* the circumstances of this wonderful J cure. About fourteen months aegee Mr. Harris woke up ono morning Witch a stiff neck; try as he would., and age; ter applying all the remedies external ally that he could hear or think of, 10 was unable to get rid of it, The stifles -sena moved to the spine and shoulders, thewsa to his hips, until it ' made almost a cr-; ple of hien, and it was with extreme dna Y fieulty that he could get out of bed sal', all. As for walking it was out of that 1 question with him. The attack becanwe so bad that he was unable to put oaf either his coat, vest or hat. From tirndr to time he called in various medicnli ;nen, none of whom were able to gi5'*0 1 him much relief. It was almost impo' i sible for him to raise his feet from tassel floor, and all pronounced his a severe' ease of muscular rheumatism, giving referee little encouragement as to his ultirasteef recovery. However, one medical genic y man finally recommended the baths, alai?! an a last resort Mr. Harris deciderlt sen; follow his advice, and went to Motet. Clemens, Mich, As is customary 'wit:'s ! all patients, Mr. Harris bad to under ;ur a thorough examination in order to ire' , termine if the system can stand •t'hi's rigorous treatment. After several ewe,' aminations had been made as to agree Harris' condition, the physicians tames; finally decided that he was not sufferf13g: from muscular rheumatism at all, but that his ailment was• of the nerves, and: told him that the baths would do hive! Tittle or no good; that he required alto , goner different treatment. Mr. Hannan placed himself in the hands of one of then physician; there, and what seemed tut,' strange to ]rim, they did nothing for te3$ts l but administer medicine in the shapes eat i pills. Shortly after he commenced *hkr' treatment he began to improve perter, tibly, and his appetite greatly impro-reele He began to walk around slowly at flaaraee but soon was able to get around newts , than he could for a year previous..Iilds was able to put on his coat and. vest mat began to feel like his former self. Bis• improvement was so rapid and peree pt' .tible not only to himself, but to ethane that he was plied with all sorts of Teen - tions as to his wonderful recovery. Ti§w medical attendant was questioner a ;r} to the nature of the medicine which ease, being administered. Much to the surrrieet' of Mr. Harris and other patients them,. he was told that it was a well know Canadian remedy, Dr. Williams' Pink' Pills, and was advised to continue their use for a time on his return hone. Mr -- Harris is load in his praise of the vran•' derful curative qualities of Dr. Willianre Pink Pills. and consented to make nice case public in the hope that he might', benefit others similarly afflicted.
