Their old, familiar carols play :
And mild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good-will to men .*

And thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along
The unbroken song

The ringing, Hinging on Its way,
The world revolves from night to day,
A voice, a chime,
A chant sublime.

SHOOT FOLLY AS IT FLIES.
Two Sermons ? The I?reaelier"N and
the 1.flyman** Idea.
We once heard of a Baptist Brother who
said that be eoatd not see why some people In
golmc to hell preferred to go through the
the Church. This rather vigorous expression
' Is Just the summing up in a few words the
life-long conduct of some people. Judging
irom their actions they have no special dread
of that place, for they live a life that the Bible
says very plainly will lead them there. They
do not seem to regard the judgment threatened
against liars, and swearers, aud drunkards.
ariniiAmre hut thev much prefer to be
guilty of tbese things in the church than oul
of it. It may be that some think that being
in tbe chuch will somehow shield them from
the consequences of such sins or lessen them
their galit. They spem to think that It is a
- good thing to be a member of tbe church,
even 1f tbey don't try to live as church members
ought An ignorant confidence in chnroh
membership Is perhaps the cause oi some
men's living lives of sin in tbe church.
Others keep up tbe outward forms of religion
from regard to the opinions of men. They
are careful about tbe appearance of religion
but not abont tbe reality. The judgment of
Qod for sin seems a small thing to them If
they have the approval of men. Tbey are not
much concerned about walking in tbe broad
road, but they don't waut men to think that
of tbem after tbey are gone. They nave uo
dislike to living in sin, but tbey want to do it
respectably.
But there are others still who come into tbe
cbureb because their consciences fire not at
rest. Tbey have no real intention or even
strong desire t<f live a Christian life, bnt tbelr
minds are not at peace, and in the hope of
finding peace they join tbe church. And in
many cases church membership, without real
faith in Christ or change of heart, does in a
measure quiet the conscience. For this reason
tbey prefer to live their lives of worldliuess
and sin in the church rather than out of
it. Tbey can travel tbe broad road with more
t ease of conscience. Willing to take tbe risk
or future torment, but tbey want present ease.
?Associate Reformed Presbyterian.
Taking the above sermon for a text, a laylay
would remark ou tbe same:
All that I Lie esteemed oromer says is irut.
What he says 1b not only true, but is well
ana forcibly wild.
Ak is usual, however, with most eminent
. preachers, our good brother speaks of "liars,
and Hwearera, and drunkards, and adulterers,"
as if they were the great and chief sinners on
' earth, or;in the church.
We all know that theseare not tbechlet sins
or the only sins to which our people are addicted.
There are not many of the brethren who
are notably distinguished above for their fellows
as "liars." ^ ..j.
Hy "swearers" we prgsugyoqrjrood brother
referred to the use. Al-1

of conscientiousness-<to' take the name of]
the IiOtd on their.I^ps^a.nd they .do not do so
?*ver,y time with reverential awe. .
We hear the Name- used more'frequently, |
with irreverence, In tbe'.pulpitT than elsewhere.
The average Christian brother 1q the pulpit
may sometimes take the name of the Almighty
on his lips one hundred or more times 1
lu forty minutes.
That is oftener than we hear It on the pub4
square from non-church members In six I
months.

near tnucn 01 ui? biu ui m uuncuuc .
We bear absolutely nothing as asalnst the
habit of tippling, from which habit drunkards |
develop.
On the subject of "adultery" and virtue, our
preachers seem to be dumb an oysters, except
in a general way when a pious brother seeks
to make vulgar insinuation against tbe purity
and respectability of those woo dance.
To be sure the evils of which our good brother
speaks should be remedied, bat tbe greater
and more common sins need not be overlooked.
NOTABLE SINS.
We ought always to be careful that we do
not
"Compound for sins we're not inclined to
By damning those we have no mind to."
The sin of uncbarltableness is a common
one, and perhaps tbe greatest of all tbe sins.
Tbe sin of oppressing tbe poor, and drlvlDg
h good bargain at the expense of the belpless,
Is not an unknown one.
The withholding ot pay from tbe honest
laborer Is a sin.
The bubltof speaking evil of an unfortunate j
brother should be slopped no matter whether i
be is striving for higher attainments or is I
recklesly drifting with tbe tide, to a great un- (
known and unfathomable sea of destruction.
WHY MRS JOIN THE CHURCH.
These are some of the reasons that prompt I
men to Join the church, anil there are very |
lew who are not moved by one or more of!
these reasons.
RKWARD FOR JOINING "OUR CHURCH." I
Because it helps hlin in his buslnesr, no matter
In what directioh he may expend his eu-|
ergles.
Many church-members make it a rale to '
trade with their brethren.
This is used as a standing premium or re- J
ward lor Joining "ourcburch.-1
THE IIESI' STEPPING STONE.
Pecause it adds popularity, ami, Incase of
popular election never fallB to influence votes.,
The church is the best stepolng stone to political
preferment.
SOCIAL ADVANTAGE.
Because it helps in a social way.
The humble citizen is always glad to be a I
member ot a fashionable organization.
Such membership Insures more or less re- '
cognition from the higher class, and then the |
. higher-class art* given a quasi-official opportunity,
without compromising themselves, to j
patronize people whom they could not other-;
wise afield tp notice.
. -' GRATIFYING VANITY.
Because vanity may be ultimately gratified !
by election toacburohly office.
Some people are pleased with very small
things.
Wiitbout offices and without officers, the
State, the Church, the Sunday Schools, the !
Masonic order, anil the Temperance organlzalions,
would soon disintegrate.
IT HELPS IN MARRIAGE.
Because, If unmarried, ltadds tothe chances
ui uu .au?.6wm?
no amount ok kki.icion necessary. j
Because the chances at some or alt of these ;
advantages may be Had by a Very trifling ef-,
Jort.
Jt In only necessary to refrain from profane I
swearing, unci avoid vulgar <Jru likeness, while
presenting to the outside world a reason- i
ably lair exterior.
No amount ol' Kincere religion is necessary, I
tun! to be allowed to bit high up in thesyu-j
ngogue, there need be no wueteof money in
> paying honest debit*.
There need be no bell-denial in the way of
oppressing the poor aud making a good barguin
oil of their necessities.
The evil word need not be withheld from
those who incur their displeasure.
By censuring evil Id others unmercifully,
we make the implication that we are ourselves
fautless and sin not.
t. .
charity.
Because it is not necessary to exercise char-1
ity-and by charity we do not menu the giving
away of one's subsUioce?but we meau that \
charity which is a little lenient to the faults
of others; that charity which would apologize
to a cold and nn.feellng world for the J
short comings of a struggling brother; that
charity which can see'the worthy qualities
In another; that charity which is not so sell
conceited as to dame every one who cannot
> come up to all the requirements, K measurer]
*hy their owe standard.;;, that charity which
would sjieak an encouraging word to the
falut-hearted; that charity which would
raise up the fallen and inspire in them new (

] ?ouI.
| lu this he is different trom those who Join j
j from mercenary reasons, and who, like the1
' I'oiiceman, must wear a badge on their coat,
j or proclaim It from the housetops.
Their actions never suggest, or give a hint,
j as to their piety or church-membership.
j THK WAV MKN* SH01TI.II HE Jl'lKJKD.
Every man should be Judged by the highest
: known standard?ttiat is to say, by the money
standard.
At) honest man is the noblest work of God.
Maybe you hold up your hands In holy
horror at the idea of such a measurement.
If so, your horror and your fear are well I
founded. I
There are comparatively few who cau stand
the test.
Anybody can be a church member and offer
long prayers in public, but it takes a man
?the highest type of man?to be hottest.
Honest, in thought?honest in speech?hon-1
est in action.
| No man is true Christian who is not honest.
Honesty Is the basic principle of all true religion,
and of every worthy effort. So to
! speak, honesty is the foundation stone upon
which every good edifice is built. Without j
honesty there Is no truth. Without truth
there Is no true and sincere religion, it there J
be no true and sincere religion, there is no (
true and living God. j
i tie presumption ?, mr?v u??Ci.
constructed on h theory of honesty.
If it were not so, does anybody suppose
that pearls would have been put In the gates,
on that the streets would have been paved
with gold ?
If the average church-member were to get
there it would not be three months until the
pearly gates would be robbed, and the last
paving stone on the golden streets would be
taken up.
There are church members whom we would
not trust with a little stiver, to say nolhlnp
of tempting them with great quantities of
pearls and golden paving bi iek6.'
! Turn a lot of dishonest church members
loose in heaven and it would be impossible to
employ enough policemen to protect the goldI
en streets and the pearly gates.
i yo; the Lord God Almighty never comtem;
plated allowing dishonest men to enter the
! kingdom of beaveu.
The hypocrit may bring alms to ttie church
; and he may lay stolen gilts on the altar ot the
, Lord.
| For doing so he may receive praise from his
I brethren, but the world knows a thief.
! Any able bodied man who canuot secure
| credit for a few dollars In a store, should with!
draw his membership.
The world has found him out.
j No man can long sustain a good place In the'
j sight of men who does not pay bis debts, and
I vet our good and pious preachers have very
! little to say of a sin that will certainly under- J
| mine and break down me dusi cnuracier 111
j the world.
i STEALING UNDER THE GUISE OK A CON.
TRACT.
| Many most excellent and well meaning
men may dare t lie dangers of commerce, and,
t irom no Intentional fault of tlielrs, become
i <ieeply Involved, and yet preserve their good
! name and their character for integrity; but
j the man who does not pay bis current or ordinary
expenses has no right to church-membership.
| While he may not be a vulgur every day i
tbtef he may be shrewd enough to steal his,
1 oelgbbor's goods or money under the guise of
j a contract.
The moral wrong Is perfectly plain.
| The thief in this Instance, has not only
I abused the confidence of a trusting neighbor,
but has added to tbelt that other debasing
I crime?lying.
1 When a man canuot stand before men? |
i when his word is not good for a mess ot pot
tage?then he has no right to assume to be a
; sanotitied child of the Father.
If a man is not honest, he has no right to ,
claim the name of Christian.
A Christian Is the perfect man?a well
rounded character?and every member who I
does not observe the rules of common honesty j
detracts from the church by his presence In ;
tlio / hnr^h. *
He must provide things honestly In the
?lght of all men, or else he sh><uid not assume
to come into the holy sanctuary Vm entering
which even good men should take oft their i
shoes. 1

Sweden and Norway have achieved them?
Sweden aud Norway that ten years ago had
the name of being the most drunken countries
in tbe world. Now they are models of
sobriety compared to even the United States.
The change has been wrought by the new
liquor law under which a city government
takes charge of the sale of intoxlcatfng
drinks. In Sweden "no man can make a
cent" from liquor selling. The city government
buys at wholesale liquors of guaranteed
purity, designates tbe places at which they
shall be sold and the hours, and then puts a
tnan in charge on a salary. Tbe less whisky
tbe man sells tbe more succesful he Is considered
to be as a business man. He must be
one of the most reputable citizens of the town,
or he wilt not be permitted to have charge of a
.tniuuu.
The saloon Itself 1b a plain, four walled I
room. No pictures decorate it: no warm |
stove sends out genial comfort. There is not
even a chair to sit down in. A man may buy j
whisky by the drink. He drinks it and is
sent off about his busiuess. He may not have !
another drink of spirits <under three hours.!
The liquor shops are not opened till So'clock j
in the morning. They are closed at the noon I
nour and closed at 7:30 In the evening in
winter and 6 in summer. On pay days the |
saloons are shut before the workmen get
money, and the day before a holiday they
close at noon. The result Is that drunkenness ,
in Sweden and Norway is decreasing per- i
ceptibly and steadily.
