Every good man should react ln anger anc fierce resentuient in the pires- ence ai injustice, cruelty anc wrang. The blographer of P'red W. Robertson, the famous prea. cher of Brighton, tels us that onc day he ground his teeth and fel! into a paroxysm of rage, when he passed a man whom. he knew was bent on destroy- ing an innocent girl. a Lord Chemnwood, in lus life iof Abraham Lincoln, tellsaus -that General Ulysses S. Grant it was a man of habituai self-pas. Be session and good teniper. But Ï"cruelty ai a driver to aninuals n in bis supply train, heartless * neglect in carrylng out Uic air. *' rangements he 1usd made foi -the comifort of the sick and wounded" would make hlm ex- n cecdingly angry. n Abrahanm LincolIn, whcii 1 twenty-two years ai age, visit- ,e ed New Orleans with two coin- n paniions. There they saw ne- i groes chained, maltrested, whipped and scourgcd. They Icame upon a slave auction, where a fine inulatto girl was y' being pinched e.nd prodded and Strotted up and down the rooni -like a horse, ta show how she rmoved. Lincoln feit bis beari 'burn with fiercéc anger, and he tsaid: "Boys, let's get aayfroni )t tis. f eer Igeta chnceta nhit that thing, ll hit it bard." In due timne, as President af the United States, he led the war against the beartlcss traffic in human beings, and, et lest, set the slaves af America free. There are many things today that s'hould stir men with an- ger and indignation. On every hand there are social evils which are destroying the hap- piness, peace and souls of men and women. Anthony Comstoclc of New York, ini 1872, was shocked ta discover that there was an organization ai wicked men, who clandestinely publisa- ed and sold most obseene and immoral books and pictures. Some ai bis yaung companions were ruined by these panderers ai vice. He was iilied witb righteous indignation and henceforth he devoted bis ilie for forty yeams, ta the iestruc- tian af this vile business. Jesus was angry on more than ane occasion, lut his anger was without inl. He was filled with a burning indignation, when ho found the Temple pro- faned by the merchiantsasnd money-changers, who were ply- irg their business in that holy place. With blazing cyes and a whip ai corda, lhe drove thern out. One Sabbath day he en- tered a synagogue and beheld a sufierer with a withered hand. The heartiess Pharisees weme crai tily watching to sec if he would heal the man an the Sabbath. They camed more for the punctilaus observance ai the traditions oi the elders, than they did for the relieving of tihe distress ai a fellowman, and we are told that Jesus "looked round about. on them with anger, being grleved for the hardness ai their heerts." Nothing is more needed ln our daily life than an enlarged capacity for moral indignation and righteous enger, but we mnust be careful not to fal into sin. How can we tell whe- ther aur anger is sinful or nat? Anger that has any self in it Is sin. If it leads us beyond self- contrai it is always ain. Ifan- ger makes us feel like hurtlng another, we have sinned. Anger la sin when it ia due ta a sense o! wounded pride or self-love. Righteous anger will aiways be kind end inspired by love. Indifference ta wrong doing is always a sign of moral deter- iomation. The man who is in- capable ai anger is morally in- sensitive, and therefore impo- tent. He lacks the moral atani- ina ta stand up for the right, and ta do the right, at ail times. Most ai us need ta pray for a larger capacity for moral in- dignation, and the anger ai the saints.
