Make a rough guess at the height t erf the tree, and mark a point that g00t distance away, and on as near a level 2x4 with the foot of the tree as possible. som, Accuracy depends largely upon this. four At the point selected set firmly upright a rod of known height?for con- jnch venlence call it seven feet above the ground. The operator must now ob- an(j tain, if he does not already know it, tber the height of his eyes above the ground. For a man of five feet ten and a half inches, let us say, this measurement is likely to be five feet si* inches?that is. four and a half inches less than the height. But if a tape is conveniently at hand it is bet- i ter to make an individual and accur- ' ate measurement. Now let the "surveyor" lie flat on his back with his heels close against the bottom of the pole. By "sight- j ing" over the top of it, he must bring JC2 the top of the tree in direct line. In order to do this it may be necessary to make one or two experiments by setting the pole forward or backward. Care must be taken, however, not to force the alignment by -any stretching or "scrouching" in order to bring Fig. the eye in the desired plane. inch When the proper point is found, as evei indicated in the figure, the surveyor thei will see that he has furnished himself Aft with the two similar triangles ABC the and A D E.

AN ELOQUENT SUNDAY SERMON BY THE REV EDWARD NILES. Theme: John's Second Epistle. Brooklyn, N. Y.?Sunday morning the Rev. Edward Niles, pastor of the Bushwick Avenue Reformed (White) Church, corner of Himrod street, ! preached from text in Acts 2:46: "With one accord in the temple, and breaking bread," as illustrated by ) John's Second Epistle. Mr. Niles s?id: We read aloud this entire book of ' the Bible in four minutes. Shortest ' of all the sixty-six, it is easily written i on three pages of lady's note paper. ; The most precious goods comes in ! small parcels. A vest pocket full of gold buys coal enough to heat and , light this church for years. The thir- ; teen verses of Second John are more : precious than the thirty-six chapters of Second Chronicles. Especially interesting is this letter I to every woman?and to every man whose dearest friend is a woman. . Pew are outside one or the other cate- ( gory. While nine of the twenty-two . New Testament letters are directed to , ihurches, four to Christians in gen- . sral, two to the Jews and five to in- ; lividual men, this is the only one sent to a woman. The writer was John the aged, her ; spiritual adviser and intimate friend. Dften entertained at her home in . Ephesus, he often thought of her tvhen out of the city. I believe we are right in giving her i name. The word translated "la-<*y" in the English text, in the margin is , 'Cyria." Like "Martha" in the He- , ?rew, "Cyria" means "lady," but was iust as much a girl's name among the ' Greeks as "Flora" with the Romans . >r "Grace" with us. Cyria, then, was a well known Christian with no less than four chilJren. At?least two were young men whom John had just found to be steadfast disciples in the town where , le was holding evangelistic services. ' rhere, too, was the home of Cyria's ? ~ ?} ?J on cnma I ' ULcUTlCU &1SIC1, AO YTCU ao vri. ouuiu lieces and nephews. With them the tpostle probably stayed. Cyria was a vldow of means, leisure and inclinaion for good works. Not long before this time, Petronus. Nero's "arbiter of elegance," a jrominent character in "Quo Vadis," jublished his "Ephesian Widow." It s a satire upon silly women, liviag or pleasure, devoted to dress, so evil ninded and foul mouthed that its ranslation is prohibited our mails. The contrast between that typical leathen widow of Ephesus and this ypical Christian widow of Ephesus ipeaks most eloquently of how the Jospel transforms womankind. The motive of John's letter is twoold: To commend the widow's chilIren whom he has seen and to warn he widow lest the children still at lome be contaminated. Only a pastor fully understands Tohn's delight at writing with a clear onscience, only a mother fully underitands Cyria's delight at reading with eating heart, "I rejoiced greatly tha": * ; have found some of your children J valking in truth." Archimedes eaped out .of his bath shouting ] 'Eureka! I have found it," when he j here discovered the long sought ! jroof of his pet theory. John cries 1 >ut "Eureka!" with even more joyful y. ntensity when he finds' in Cyrix's j ihildren proof of his and Peter's the- ; >ry propounded at Pentecost, "the { iromise is unto you and your chil- 1 Iren." When boys could go away 1 rom a Christian home and, in the ( nidst of paganism, live pure, Christ- ' ike lives, John's preaching had ' jassed beyond the experimental j stage. 1 A shadow falls over even this joy. ] Some of your children indicates :hat the cup of happiness was not full ;o running over. Rumors had reached John that Syria's hospitality was being abused sy plausible counterfeits of Christian ministers who were circulating the jlasphemy that Christ did not really live on ear.th in flesh and blood. It was only an appearance. So these men were later known as "Docetists." j rhose children were in imminent dan- ' Her of being led into perdition by the ( tieresy which asserted that only Jesus ( 5f Nazareth was crucified; not the Messiah at all. Divinity, they ilaimed, could not be subject to humanity. Matter is essentially evil. ] A.11 sin comes from the body. The i passion story is drama, not history. Nothing is real but mipd. They i sailed themselves "advanced think- 1 srs," because they wanted Christian- i ity to keep pace with the times and s nfuse itself with the popular Oriental s mysticism. ''Progress" was their i watchword. In reality, says John, it [s retrogress, for they "go onward by 1 lot abiding in the teaching of Christ." The glamour we are inclined to < cast about the early church is not i justified. Its members had the same failings as ours. Its vagaries are strikingly duplicated now and here. Theosophy, Free Thinking, Christian i Science flourished in Ephesus. "The ; leacning or me iweive Apostles, a church manual probably written before John died, warns believers against many who went into evangelism for what they could make out of it. It lays down this very practical i test of genuineness: "If he stays more than two days he is false. If he teaches the truth and doeth it not, he is false. Whatsoever shall say in the spirit, 'Give me silver,' or anything else, ye shall not listen to him. If he tell you to give for others who are in want, let no man judge him." Let us apply this test on the present-day professed improvements upon the old faith: How much do they charge for their text books? What is the price of their treatment? Do the poor have these substitute gospels preached to them? The central thought of this miniature epistle is the same as in all of , John's writings, love. Faith is love's basis. When belief is false, lovo disappears. The disciple whom Jesus loved was now a hundred years old. Although his handwriting was tremulous with age. he was still a Son of Thunder. His conception of love was not an invertebrate sentimentality, but a discerning reasonableness. He ever emphasized the need of an actual, incarnate Christ on whom to focus affection. So he hurled his thunders at whoever would emasculate the love-religion and stirred Cyria to guard her family against them. Shortly afterward. John is sa?d to have returned to Ephesus, so w.-jak he needed to be carried to the Christian meeting place on young meu's shoulders. Unable to stand up and preach, Sunday after Sunday he spread his hands over the worshipers, using the same five-word sermon. "Little children, love one another. When asked why, he replied, "Because that is the command of the Lord, and nothing can be done unless this is done." The word "Cyria" has still another meaning. It is "what relates to the Lord," and hence "church." From It , comes the Scotch "kirk," the Dutch PJi "kerk" and the German "kirche." ca: Some think it should be so rendered in this epistle, and that this lady is St the Ephesian Church personified, her , slater the church where John was set holding services at the time, her chil- q, dren the sorely tempted Ephesian Co converts. fin If so, the significance simply broad- la ens from the family home to the *h? church home. The lesson was and ^ remains appropriate to both. Neither * at the house nor in the church do we jgj need a new theology, nor additional ( commandments. In both places we ] need the Pentacostal spirit inspiring act is "with,one accord to continue steadfast in the temple; with gladness and singleness of heart breaking bread at ^ home;" in church, in the house, on the street constantly reiterating, thoughtfully contemplating, logically ag applying the duplex commandment of love- ta' Such a widowed saint as I have , ' imagined Cyria, when a boy I was ar privileged to know. Her time, too, *? svas spent in helping otherfe. One du c>iq cfnnnorl ma nn tho and said: "My boy, do you remember bow Nero wished all the Romans had ' one neck, that he might wring it? Well, I was just wishing that all the Christians of York had one neck, that [ might hug it." Her life, whether gm worshiping at the temple or break- gri ing bread at home, approved her ne wdrds. What a warning is John's "Look to pourselves that ye receive a full reward." Religion is more than a < means for gaining heaven or escaping va hell. In neither place, any more than cr< upon earth, are rewards and punishments meted out with stupid and in- fb iiscriminate uniformity. foi In the future life remorse will not W t>e localized. Some among the saved barely squeeze through the gates, ^ alhers have an abundant entrance. to; Inside, many are unadorned at all; the crowns of others are plain circlets; some heads are wreathed with stars. While rejoicing in their re- T1 iemption will not multitudes regret in :heir empty-handedness? I j0 To be first at school, in games, imong business men, is a lofty ambi- ' tion.

Such deposits in heavenly tjt vaults increase at compound interest de f we walk determinedly in the nar- Sa row path, abhor falsities, work no inworthy schemes, speak no unkind , words, are intolerant of our own sins, ^ tolerant to other sinners, make temples of our homes and homes of our temples. bu Erowning puts in the dying mouth h(! 3f its leader the cause of that post Pentacostal joy at church and at home: !

Many a Christian of good average standing really longs for spiritual w ,<ower?at times. When he hears it in said of certain rare individuals, as was said recently of a widely known j eader in the Kingdom, "Mr. Ives his Christianity so remarkably 8* :hat you are always uplifted by It " when he is in your house," he thinks t* ie would rather have that power, bo tt :hat people would talk that way b< ibout him, than anything else in the BT world. His desire is sincere, for the moment, but It does not last long ' ;nough. If it did, the longed-for jower would come. "Blessed are 111 ;hey that hunger and thirst after ighteousness, for they shall be w ailed." But they must care more for d: :he power of the Spirit than for any- c, :hing else in their lives. Which ^ means that they must be willing to i lay the price that the Spirit demands .'or complete entry into anyone's life, knd that is stern, rigid duty-doing it every point; absolute surrender of . self and all of self's Interests; the pj naking of the Kingdom and its interists first and supreme in one's life, [f this seems too high a price to pay, J? tve need not wonder that our lives d< ack the occasionally, languidly cov- i :ted power.?Sunday-School Times. i w "They Feared as They Entered Into T the Cloud." Many of the greatest and most up- ei lifting experiences of life approach in the guise of fearsome' clouds. Whether any cloud shall be changed O into "the Majestic Glory" depends upon whether it shuts in or shuts out I Christ. If He be within it, the vision j g splendid must soon burst forth to ! show the Master more radiant, more I le iivine than before. To those drawing consciously near I p, the close of their days this mount of | a] the transfiguration has its lessons of exceeding grace. It is not a pleasant i thing to anybody to grow old. To , to most men, despite all they say and j ^ the jests they maxe, age comes as uu- i expected and unheralded as a cloud tj drifting across Hermon's heights.
