Other words drive, but this beckons. All moods of feeling hath that word "come.‘" Sometimes it wesps and sometimes It laughs. Fometimes it prays, wometimes it terapts, and sometimes it destroys. It sounds from the door of the church and from the seâ€" raglios of «in, from the â€"gates of heaven and the gates of hell. It is confluent and accrescent of all powâ€" et. It is the heiress of most of the past and the almoner of most of the y future. "Come!*" You may proâ€" nounce it «o that all the heavens will be heard in its cadences or proâ€" nounce it «o that all the woes of time and eternity shall reverberate in its one syllable. It is on the lip of saint and profligate, _ It is the mightiest of all solicitants either for good or bad. ‘ Toâ€"day 1 weigh anchor and haul in the planks and set sail on that great word, although I am sure l{ will not be able to reach the farther shore. _ I will let down the fathomâ€" ing line into this sea and try to measure its depths, and, though I ; tie together all the cables and cordâ€" | age 1 have on board, I will not be ; able to touch bottom.

What raultiâ€" tudes of us are alive toâ€"day and in good health and buoyant in this jourâ€" ney of life who would have broken down or died long ago but for the susâ€" taining and cheering help of our holy religion! So we say, "Come!" The well is not dry. The buckets are not empty. The supply is not exhausted. There is just as much mercy and conâ€" dolence and soothing power in God as before the first grave was dug, or the But the word "come" applied â€"to those who need solace will amount to nothing unless it be uttered by some one who has experienced that solace. That spreads the responsibility of giving this gospel call among a great many. Those who have lost property and been consoled by religion in that trial are the ones to invite those who bave failed in business. Those who bave lost their health and been conâ€" soled by religion are the ones to invite those who are in poor health. Those who have had bereavements and been "come." It will take all eternity to find out the number of business men who have been strengthened by the promises o&% God and the people who have been fed by the ravens when other resources gave out and the men armed only with needle or saw or ax or vardstick or pen or tape or shovel or shoeâ€"last, have gained a victory that made the heavens resound. â€" With all the resources of God promised for every exigency no one nced be left in the lurch. What we ali need, whether up or down in life or half way between, is the infinite solace of the Christian reâ€" ligion. _ And so we employ the word swamp full of annoying insects. On the other hand, the unfortunate classes have their struggles for maintenance. To achieve a livelinood by one who had nothing to start with and after a while for a family as well and carry this on until children are reared and educated and fairly started in the world, and to do this a‘mid all the rivalries of busiâ€" ness and the uncertainty of crops and the ficleness of tariff legislation, with an occasional labor strike and here and there a financial panic thrown in, is a mighty thing to do, and there are hunâ€" dreds and thousands of such heroes and heroines who live unsung and die unhonored. story of the wrongs, or rages and deâ€" famations that have come upon you as a result of your success.

Y., "a lady now past thirty years," wants to get married, and has written Mayor Harâ€" rison, Chicago, to help along her amâ€" bition. _ This doting woman, who says she might be able to "love with alt her heart and soul," doos not ask something for nothing. She declares sho is willing to pay the Mayor for "his trouble." She writes : "I am a lady now past thirty years of age, and thus far I have been unâ€" able to find a husband. Now, Mr. Mayor, I thought you might b> able to help me fiad one. Regarding myâ€" sell, I will say I am 5 feet 5 inches high azd weigh 135 pounds.

That cha occasion. penting! that God and year archs an ets and ; tion of a can anyc welcome At vact When Russia was in one of her great wars, the suffering of the soldiers had been long and bitter, and they were waiting for the end of the strife. One day a messenger in great excitement ran among the tents of the army shouting, "Peace! Peace!" The sentiâ€" nel on guard asked, "Who says ‘peace?""* And all up and down the encampment of the Russians went the question, "Who says ‘peace?" " Then the messenger responded, "The czar says ‘Peace."" That was enough. That meant going home. That meant the war was over. No more wounds and no more long marches. So toâ€". day, as one of the Lord‘s messen gers, I move through these great encampâ€" ments of souls and cry: "Peace beâ€" tween earth and heaven! Peace beâ€" tween God andâ€" man! Peace between your repenting soul and a pardoning Lord!" If you ask me, "Who eays peace?" I answer, "Christ, our King, declares it." ‘"My peace I give anto you!" Peace of God that passeth all understanding!" Everlasting peace! As the one word "come‘" has someâ€" times brought many souls to Christ, T will try the experiment of piling up into a mountain and then send down in an avalanche of power many of these gospel "comes." "Come thou and all thy house into the ark;" "Come unto me all ye who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest;" "Come for all things are now ready;" "Come with us, and we will do you good;" "Come and see:" "The Spirit and the bride say ‘come,‘ and let him that heareth say ‘come,‘ and let him that is athirst come." â€" The stroke of one bell in a tower may be sweet, but a score of bells well tuned and rightly lifted and skilfully swung ?in one great chime fill the heavens with music almost celestial And no one who has heard the mighty chimes in the towers of Amsterdam or Ghent‘ or Copenhagen can forget them. Now, it seems to me that in this Sabba’.hl hour all heaven is chiming, and the voices of departed frineds and kindredl ring down the sky, saying, "Come!" The angels who never fell, bending from sapphire thrones, are chanting, "Come!" Yea, all the towers of heavâ€" en, tower of martyrs, tower of pro-I phets, tower of apostles, tower ot, evangelists, tower of the temple of the‘ Lord God and the lamb are chiming : ‘"Come! Come!"

Man alive, you are going to let all the years of your life go away with you without your having this great peace, this glorious hope; this bright expectancy? Are you going tc let the pearl of great price lie in the dust at your feet because you are too indolent or too proud to stoop down and pick it up? Will you wear the chain of evil habit when near by you is the hammper that could with one stroke sumap the ehackle? â€" Will you stay in the prison of sin when here is a gospel key that could unlock your incarceration? No, no! "But," you say, "there are so many things I have to believe and so many thiny in the shape of a creed that I have to adopt that I am kept back." No, no! You need believe but two thingsâ€"namely: that Jesus Christ came into the world to save ceinners and that you are one of them. "But," . you say, "I do believe both of these things." Do you really believe them with all your heart? "Yes." Why, then, you have passed from death into life. Why, then, you are a son or & daughter of the Lord Almighty. Why, then, you are an heir or an heiress ot" an inheritance that will declare diviâ€" ; dends from now until long after the stare are dead. Hallelujah! â€" Prince of God, why do you not come and take your coronet? Princess of the Lord Almighty, why do you not mmount your throne? Pass up into the light.

After all MGodhubeen,doh‘tor-hmm and years, sometimes through patriâ€" archs and sometimes through prophâ€" ets and at last through the culminaâ€" tion of all the tragedies on Golgotha, can anyone think that God will not welcome your coming?. Will a tather‘ at vast outlay consetruct a mansion for his son and lay out parks white with statues and green with foliage &nd all aâ€"sparkle with fountains and then not allow his son to live in the house or walk in the parks? Has God built this house of gospel mercy and will he then refuse entrance to his : ’children? Will a government at great’ expense build lifeâ€"saving stations all along the coast and boats that can hover unhurt like a petrel over the wildest surge and then, when that lifeâ€" ! boat has reached the wreck of a ship , in the offing, not allow the drowning to seize the life line or take the boat for the ehore in safety?
