Reeve Kylie said that if a sewerage system was adopted the property owners might want to put in a. different style of drain to the one proposed now. The place in question is one of the worst in town and the cellars along; the route are all wet now. Coun. Touchburn pointed out that the drain under discussnm would be complete in itself, not connected at either end with any other drain, and he would oppose all grants of a similar character unless the town derived a benefit. Reeve Cmndell urged delay and the adoption of some system. He was a firm believer in tiling and considered that our streets would never be in proper condi- tion until they were well tiled. In the past private parties had done the work as best suited themselves and he express- ed the hope that a proper system Would be adopted without delay. ()oun. Head favored the report, but wanted a. definite system of action adopt- ed, at once, for the future. Conn. Touchburn said that it 'as Well knuwn that the place spuken of was about the worst in town and the Work should be done at once. Coun. Mallou thought the grant should not be made until after the trip of the street and bridge connnittee. which body could see just what is wanted and recmn- mend accordingly. At present Kent and other streets are in a. dangerous and deplorable condition and as the town had no money to spare, only those things absolutely necessary should be done, until after the annual inspection by the committee.

DSAY, THURSDAY, APRIL 27th muyur 87 out Of WILS Religion is two-sided. The com- ‘plete law is supreme love to God and then love to your fellow-men. Many there are who separate these two; some think that all of religion consists of exercises of worship to God and forget their neighbors and the love due to them; such religion is one-sided. Others there are who say ‘my religion is to love my neighbors, to do to others as I would have them do to me,’ and yet forget that they are withholding from God the love and veneration which it is His right to claim. From a. God who crowns their life with blessings and who gave His Son to die for them they withold their love, they even treat Him with indifl'erence and then say .-..-.. , u 0 rich young ruler, once came to Christ with the same question ‘What must I do to inherit eternal life.’ He had more earnest~ ness of spirit, and Christ answered him accordingly showing the path of self- sacrifice that led into the kingdom. Another man, a teacher of the Jews, Nicodemus by name, came one night to seek information on the same great sub- ject. He came humbly, with earnest desire to know the truth. Beside him Christ sat down and simplv and plainly told the gospel of the love of God and the provision of lite in the Son of God. So it ever is, the spirit in which you approach ‘Christ determines the response you will ‘receive. Come to Him as a critic, as m caviller and you will go from Him as the scribes who thus approached Him ever went from Him, discomfited, defeated, angry at your own littlenesa. Come to Him humbly, with a heart broken under the burden of sin and anxiously seeking rest and light and He will with infinite love and patience teach you the things concerning Himself and throw open to you the whole store of heaven’s light and love. “Have you ever noticed how differently Christ met and answered those who came to Him asking even the same questions ? This lawyer came asking ‘Master what shall I do to inherit eternal life '3’ He wanted to draw Christ into a theologies. discussion; he came tempting Christl Christ: answered him in his own Spirit, he led him on to answer his own question and to see his own littleness. Another man, a l A POWERFUL SERMON, DELIVE {ED IN BLO- QUENT LANGUAGE, BY A POPULAR PASTOR, TO A LARGE NUMBER OF THE MEMBERS OF THE ORDER AND A CROWD- El) CONGREGATION. On Sunday last the Rev. Mr. Johnston delivered the annual sermon to the mem- bers of the I.0.0.F. at St. Andrew’s church. The centre seats were reserved for the brethren, of whom about one hundred, including a number from Man- illa, were present. The Spacious edifice was filled to repletiot . and the effort of the popular and eloquent minister was one of the best ever heard in Lindsay. ‘ “'OR [)8 OF WELCOME. Before commencing his sermon Mr. Johnston said “Allow me in a word to 'weleome to our service to-day the lodge of the Independent Order of Oddfcllows. , lour society is one, gentlemen, which Calls for commendation in many ways.

A society which‘in a single year in Canada has spent about ‘ seVenty thousand dollars in relieving Widows. in educating orphans and in hear- ing the expenses of long illnesses is one that deserves many good words to be spoken of it. I am not a strong advocate of societies, in striving to be faithful in the discharge of duties in the two societies divinely establishedâ€"the home and the church, 1 find abundant opportunity for the exercise of all my energies. Christ said that the children or this world are wiser in their generation than the children of light and there are matters in which the church might, I believe, learn from members of mere human organizations. t Especially do I wish that members of the a Christian church were as loyal to the church as you gentlemen are to your a society; that loyalty I admire in you and " would fain see it practised in other quarters. And now, gentlemen. while I h would have you loyal to your society while you are members of it, I invite you to become members of a better societyâ€"the C church of Jesus Christ. We offer no ti temporal benefits in the ordinary sense of w the term. but yet, even for this world you tl are promised what nothing else can give. h To those in trouble or distress the Grand n Master Himself,Jesus Christ,promises his u: presence and His aid, ‘When thou passest through the waters I will be with thee, and through the rivers they shall not overflow thee,’ and for the world to come too the members of this society are prom- , ised by their Lord and Master joys eternal ‘with Himself.

Mr. Johnston for his excellent sermon, t3 the trustees for the use of the church. to the choir for their services and to the visting brethren for their attendance. Do you admire the good Samaratan ? Would you possess his spirit? Thatspirit of love springs up when we get a sight of the love ofGod for us. There is a deeper mean- ing to this parable than that which I have given it here. Who is the traveller fallen among thieves but the sinner who leav- ing Jerusalem, the city of holiness, has on his way to J erico the city of sin been beset by enemies and left wounded With sin, ‘ robbed of his rightousness, and ready to perish. The law and the ritual of sacri- fice pass him by unable to help, but Jesus his need and in love raises him from his ‘ fallen estate. He purges away his sin, he iclothes him with His own righteousness. He becomes poor that the sinner may be rich, he provides him with grace for all his need, and all this He does in compassion and love for the needy soul. My friend, if you have seen Christ’s work for you and have realized the depth to which His love stooped to reach you, it will seem a small thing for you to go out and help even the man who has injured you. Look to Christ then as your true Helper, accept the help that He brings to yr 11 and then go out to live in the world the life you have seen in Christ Jesus.” At the conclusion of the service the “111‘ II . -.-.--........-u .- LLU 1:3 ”It man whom the Jew when he met him hissed at and spat upon; the man who was cursed publicly in the synagogue; the man for whom the Jew prayed that he might never enter into the resurrection of life.

What does it mean 13 Let us ask this Samaritan his reasons for so treating the man who of all others was his chief enemy. ‘Is this Jew any relative of yours ’2’ No. 'Is he a member of your synagogue ?’ No. l ‘Dces he belong to your lodge ‘2’ No. ‘Was he not your enemy 13 ‘Yes, I believe he would call himself such.’ Why then did you help him ‘2 thy, the poor fellow: was in. ma]. Ah 3 how the gospel of Christ lifts us up above the petty restric- tionsof human organizations. “Help those who help you. Why the publicans do that, the heathen do as much as that. But to help the man who hates you, to do a kind- ness to the very person who has done his utmost to ruin you, this is the spirit of the Gospel of Christ. But this is against human nature, you say. It is indeed, it is quite contrary to human nature, and if you would possess such a spirit it must be by the casting out by God’s Spirit of the human nature and the implanting in your heart the divine nature which comes from God; ‘ye must be born again.’ How the traveller’s heart throbbed with joy when he saw the priest approaching.

And this is how the religious man has treated him 1 This is what all his praying and fasting and psalm-singing is worth. Well, let him get well and they shall know what he thinks of them and all their services. I can fancy him cursing the religion of which the very representative would pass him by in his suffering and leave him to die in his blood. How easy it is to follow the priest’s exampleâ€"how easy to pass those by whom we might help ! Have you ever known a young man come to town and fall amongr thieves who have stripped him of his good habits, his character, his morals, and have you though you knew of it said ‘it is none of my business, I cannot look after everyone who wants to go to ruin? Have you ever known aénmn to fall among thieves who have stripped him of his property, his business, his prospects and have left him a wreck, ruined in fortune and in charac- ter, and have you passed by saying ‘it is none of my business, there are others who should try to help him '?’ Ah! where is the priest 720w .’ Do not speak too harshly of this man who lived so long,r ago lest in your words you condemn yourself. that they are treating others wuuld be treated.
