8 a patriotic, economic and relig
one, than which there is none
e practical. The problem before
church is to set the lame man on
feet so that he can make his own
in things of the heart and become
mtributor 10 the moral health of
world. Let us observe how Peter
John faced the problem. First,
[ faced it squarely. They did not
re it. They were not too anxions
It getting to the temple. While
kip has its supreme place in the
pus life of every man, there is
Kbiug else. They did not criticise

^ne, and they did not feel the
1 >o( the limitation either; they
Kaey could solve the problem
it It. The silver and gold in the
J sphere are not good and con
surroundings, congenial work
good advice and ideals. The Chrisphurch
does not stand merely for
sophic help and the gospel of
surroundings. Peter and John six
ihs before would not have been
Uy equipped to face this problem;
did not then possess God nor did
possess them. They were com
flHkms of Christ, out tney uia nut
^kees His spirit. But now tbev were
^Hly possessed by the Spirit of God,
^Vthat was tbe first step toward the
^Btion of the problem before them.
^H/jt is the first step to-day. You
can never help the lame man
^BLy/e not only possess God but are
^^ed by Him.
^^Hker element in the solution of
^^Brolem was that the two were in
^Hect accord. Six morths before
^K;r had forsaken Chri6t, while John
^fte ran the gantlet in the terrific
^Bt of passion In the city of hate,
but Peter never again shirked his
fluty. John had been ambitious for
the supreme place among the apostles,
but now he had grown in grace
ami lost the passion for promin^ftce.
Friends, the same conditions are necessary
to-day in solving the pro'tlem of
the morally lame on the part of the
Church of God as were manifested on
that day.
The love of prominence must go,
whether it be of individual or church,
or denomination. Passlcfc must cease.
One of the reasons wfcy the church
of God is not omnipotent is because
there is still this lust for prominence
on the part of individuals, churches
and denominations, and instead of self
abandon we are absolutely too selfconscious.
every one of us. Again
they solved it in giving the power of
Christ to the man: "In the name of
Jesus Christ rise up and walk." The
communication of ideals will never
save men from moral lameness. Ideals
must live in personality. That is the
difference between Christianity and
everything else. It is the communication
of power, the tonch of God?the
touch of divine power in the heart.
Let us feel it this morning. "In the
name of Jesus of Nazareth, rise up
and walk." Let it .touch upon your
weakness. It is -'here. Let it do for
you and me what it did for that lame
man.
It breaks the power of cancelled sin,
And sets the prisoner free.
That is what Peter and John did.
Think of it! There was the lame man;
there was the critical public; there
was the memory of their own past
failures, and there was the power of
Christ. It conquered them all, and
the man arose, and stood up. Not
only did he stand, but the solution of
Ibis problem included every other. He
can earn his own living now, and
needs not assistance. Every problem
of life is bound up in the problem
of the lame man being straightened
and strengthened. It is smooth sailing
after that. Lastly, tJbe man became
a benefactor and praised fiod.
He inspired the faith of men. Before,
his very presence created pessimism;
now it was faith and praise. The atmosphere
of the man became a factor
and-an asset in the progress of the
world. We are either contributors-to
or exhausters of the moral life of the
world. Which is it? My subject
gathers round these two.points: Fifst,
the lame man, and, second, the men
+Via instrumentality of

Jesus Christ cured him. We as
Christians stand in the apostle's
place. Let us, under Christ, cure the
lame, and if -we stand in the lame
man's place Christ will make us
whole. May we, like Peter and John,
help the lame man to praise his God
and inspire our fellow men for Christ's
sake!
The Upward toot.
"It is of no use to tell me to look
forward," said one in. great trouble,
the other day, to a friend. "The worst
of my trouble, I know lies ahead. Tc
look back upon the past, before this
shadow came, simply adds to my agony.
I can only sit in the darkness,
and-shut my eyes to everything, and
bear as best I may."
"There is always one way left," said
the friend, gently. "When we cannot
r ??/j ho/ifrnrnr/?. Wo pan look

upward. I have been in every whit as
hard a place as you, and I sat a long
while in the darkness before finding
the way out. Try the upward lookit
is meant for just such sorrows as
this, which seem to shut in the soul
inexorably. If we look up, we never
look in vain."
"Time alone can help such 6orrows
as yours," said a woman who called
herself a Christian, to a bereaved
friend lately. There was no upward
look suggested there. A heathen could
have said as much. Time only can dull
the edge of pain; the upward look robs
suffering of its sting surely and lastingly.
It is always possible to lift
our eyes to the sky; and though at
first, perhaps, we see only the clouds,
we shall find it true before long that
"Over all our tears God's rainbow
bends."..

Strange Credulity.
When Napoleon Bonaparte was once
listening to a very improbable story
related by Marshal Duroc, an avowed
infidel, who protested that the story
was true, the emperor quietly re
marked: "There are some men whe
are capable of believing everything
but the Bible." This remark fr/ds

The following letter should bring
hope to suffering women. Miss Luella

" Wash., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham
"About two years ago I was a great sufferer
from a severe female trouble, pains and
headaches. The doctor prescribed for me and
finally told me that I had a tumor ou the
womb and must undergo an operation if I
wanted to get well. I felt that this was my
t death warrant, .but I /jpent hundreds of dol'
lars for medical help, "but the tumor kept
growing. Fortunately I corresponded with
an aunt in the New England States, and she
advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, as it was said to cure tumors.
I did so and immediately began to
improve in health, and I was entirely cured,
the tumor disappearing entirely, without an
operation. I wish every suffering woman
Would try this great preparation."

cured of the troubles enumerated in
her letter, just so surely will Lydia E.
