Dr. Hlncks Speaks on the Terri .denciee and Dangers of Luxury of Modern Days “Luxury is a form of int'emperance. ""‘it is a form of excess which becomes a- morbidity, whichabecomes a morbid concentration :8n’one's own private pleasure," said; Bev.iDr."W. H. Hincks, Toronto,‘inva sermon on "Luxury; Its Tendencies and Dangers " Luxury, the preacher said, breaks down the moral fibre, and the man indulging in. . ,it goes to pieces from his own ex. He claimed that that luxury [of which they had forms in every city in the old nd new worlds was the! most insidious disease from which our modern civilization was suffering. He mentioned types 'of the luxury-loving classes of all ages, so that they might see what a selfish thing luxury be came, what a heartless thing it might become, and the price those people vere willing to pay solely [for sensua ‘.easures. That was the-particular ' curse of luxury. The whole western world was. clamoring for more com- fort to-day Therule was that. the average successful man degenerated through luxury. The first thing he did was to provide himself with a luxur- ious establishment, which took the place of a home, with luxuries of the table, which took the place of a simple diet, and with luxuries of clothing, locomotion and every form of comfort. .It was more difficult now to get soldiers for national defence, or sailors to man .our myriad ships, than ever before. Luxury was sap- ping the "nerve of heroic enterprise; it was cutting out the Sabbath day as a day of rest and worship, “and 'when you weaken the Sabbath day, ;you can say‘in truth that you are lay- ing the axe to the root of the common-V ' wealth," said Dr. 'Hincks. . ,“And wherein lies the cure?" he asked. “It is only to be found in re. generation, in a revival of living. It will not be found in legislation. The parliament cannot do it. The Church alone can effect a cure; the Church alone‘can save us from the downward. :drift that follows living for the senses .alone. Ministers have a great respon- sibility resting on them. They must make plain statements of how luxury is cutting out men‘s better lives," he said. ‘ The luxury-loving classes, infinitely detestable, infinitely dangerous to the: world’s progress, were succeeding the older classes of landlords in the old country. "Please yourself; gratin your own desires," wasLcheir cry. .___Aâ€"_â€"__â€"_â€".-â€"â€"___ â€"_._.________â€"_. ‘ wrem'astwrrwm'“ ’ :".".£:.”I‘"f.~‘...§"’- “.9. ullmnmium ' , 3‘ i "l ‘f . 5" "III" "I" _:I l l khâ€" ‘ . > ;.. ill“ Nowadays people are giving more attention to the interior decoration and furnishing of their homes than they ever did before. The standard of living has been raised. What satisfied us a few years ago will not do now. The Sherwin-Williams Co. has given particular atten- tion to the making of finishes for the interior decoration of the home and they have succeeded so well that their ‘ finishes are used for every purpose in the most elaborate mansion, and also in the most humble cottage. The walls of your home can be finished with Sâ€"W Flat-tone, a. durable flat-drying oil paint, absolutely sanitaryâ€"can be washed with soap and waterâ€"or Sâ€"W Phone 13 There was the danger. If the simple peasant, the backbone of England, was acquiring the land, was going l'back to the soil, with his love of sim- plicity and low: of God, that would save the _ commonwealth. But the moneyed business man was stepping in, and his sole purpose in purchasing land was to increase his pleasures‘and give a wider scope to his luxuries. "Promise yourself.’f he continued, “thatyou will accept no luxury that will make you a more uninteresting man or woman.
