THE PULPIT. A SCHOLARLY SUNDAY SERMON BY THE REV. G. H. EGGLESTON. Theme: Unconditional Service. Brooklyn. N. Y.?The Rev. Gurdon H. Eggleston, pastor of the Greene Avenue Church, preached Sunday morning on "Unconditional Service." The text was from Luke 10:60: "Let the dead bury their dead; but go thou and preach the Kingdom of God." Mr. Eggleston said: We turn our thought to a verse of Scripture thai leaves in many Christian minds a wrong impression, or seems to be entirely meaningless: "Let the dead bury their dead; but - - U T, iflou arm preauii me am5uvui v.i God." As we think of these words we must beware of of reading into Christianity an unnaturalness that savors not of a loving God "full of compassion?and plenteous in mercy." The Christian religion, of which Jesus is the personification, does not repudiate one single human emotion. Its demands are not thus harsh. It does not demand the renunciation of home life and human relations in order to be pure and good, as the monks and nuns of old asserted. Not in cloisv**!! All frnm /?liriniTC IC1 CU I_lO.ll, OCVluutu F is the holiest life lived, but out in the busy world, bearing a 6hare of Its burdens, meeting its temptations, vet withal living a life that is pure and good. The nun in her seclusion and much prayer is not more righteous than the Christian housewife with her many duties and less prayer. Nor Is the Christian business man living a less noble life than the cloistered monk. Christianity is not for seclusion. It is for the every day life which you and I are living. It Is to lift common life into the divine. It does not ask us to be unnatural. It does not deny us any legitimate relationship. It does not require neglect of any earthly duty, for the Gospel of Jesus is a religion for this life. Crtmo -nrrmM maVp the text mean simply that we must not entangle ourselves with the affairs of the world. This is likely to misrepresent the Gospel of Jesus. The true Christian has a duty in this world, nor is he to be separated from it. He has a part in the work of redemption. His the obligation so to enter into the varied phases of life that he may help to lift it to higher ideals. Business, politics, professional life, should not be unrelated to Christian principles. Each needs more men to carry Christian principles into those departments of life for their purification. When ******* t?V?r?1T V qttq crrocnoH t Vl At". XUCU OUHii UUT V, ?,* ? every part of their life is related inseparably to their religion, and that the man who is a Christian only when he is inside a church is not a Christian at all, then will a mighty stride be made toward the realization of the Kingdom of God in the hearts and lives of men. If it is true the words do not mean the repudiation of natural affection, if it is true they do not mean separation from the world in order to be a Christian, what, then, is the message of these words from the lips of Jesus? Two words suffice to state the proposition. Unconditional service. "Let the dead bury their dead" voices the urgent demand of the message of Jesus on the soul of men. The occasion for the seemingly strange words of Jesus was a season of excuses. He had been talking to His followers concerning the kingdom of righteousness. Attracted by His personality, many gather to hear His words._ To them Jesus said, "Follow Me." But tney Degin wun one accora to make excuse. They would like to follow Jesus, but they are not willing to pay the price. Unconditional service. Their loyalty is tempered with conditions. Jesus says, follow Me now, this instant, ere I depart. But one young man feels he must first say goodby to his friends. While he is gone to his native village to say goodby Jesus would have left the country. ! It would be too late to follow. His goodby would have cost him his fellowship with the Master. Therefore, i Jesus said to him, "No man having put his hand to the plow and looking back Is fit for the Kingdom of God." We cannot believe Jesus had any objection to the young man's goodby to bis friends, if at the same time he could have followed. Another young man must needs first go bury his father. Eut Jesus said to him, "Let the dead bury their dead; go thou and preach the Kingdom of God." The performance of these duties, whica were perfectly worthy in themselves, would have separated them from Jesus. Then when they were - ready to follow, Jesus would have been far away. Participation in the funeral rites would, according to the Eastern custom, eutail a ceremonial uncleanness of seven days. Seven days it would have taken to bury the father. Before the funeral is over Jesus would have been far away, and the young man might then be unwilling to follow after Him. By this stange answer, laden with spiritual meaning, Jesus taught that young man, and is teaching this age, that His claims are paramount; that obedience must be instant and absolute. It may be the path to hell is paved with good intentions; but of one thing we may be sure, the way into the Christ life is not paved with excuses. He who would be a follower of that Perfect Man, the Son of God, must render unconditional service. Tlie same tree does not bear the true and the false, the honest and the dishonest, the pure and the impure. The way of righteousness and the way of evil are two roads which lead to opposite conditions. Would man walk in the way of truth, he must even be willing to let the spiritually dead bury their nead. If the dearest friend a man has in the world would keep him from righteousness and jurist, liipu il uiuat uccua uc as jcsua raid that a man must disregard the desires even of his father and his mocher. How often in life we see the counterpart of the sad story of the young woman who would follow her Master in a life of service fof the suffering, but who met with bitter opposition from a godless mother who desired nothing better for the daughter than the useless life of a society belle. She was forced with sorrow to forsake the mother, to leave the parental roof, to let the dead bury their dead, while she did the work of the Kingdom ct Love. The call of Jesus Christ to serve is unqualified. Excuses do not pass muster. Whatsoever hinders service must be rernnnppri. if men would follow. Nor is this a harsh demand. It does not require that we be unnatural. It does not ask the man to be less a man, or the woman to be less a woman. But, on the other hand, no earthly duty or relationship can be pawned as an excuse for neglect of duty to God, righteousness and the cause of humanity. Forgetful that excuse should have no place in Christian living, many a one to-day who has heard the call of the Master. "Follow Me." like the young man of old, has bribed the conscience with excuses. Many of current excuses are far less plausible than those of the men who would first- say goodby to the friends and bury the father. Eack of* every life to-day that is not Christian, that is not living for righteousness, there Is a reason, perhaps an excuse, certainly that stands !n the way 08 following Jesus, which cross-examina-j tion would reveal. It may be indif ference. Indifference to the moral and spiritual claims of Jesus Christ upon the life is not commendable. It may be some pet sin hidden away from the knowledge of the world within the secret places of heart and life. To offer the love of a pet sin as the reason for not following the Mas;er is a sad confession of weakness. We recall the words. "If thy right hand offend thee cut it off and cast it from thee." The excuse may be that men think themselves not good enough. But the purpose of Christianity is to make men good; not to take them after they are good. It may be cowardly fear of criticism stands in the way. But the true man does not fear criticism when doing the right. "Go thou and publish abroad the Kingdom of God" was the message to the young man who excused himself. It tells the nature of the service. That service is essentially and primarily personal. The first requirement is. "Follow Me." That means to believe in Jesus as a personal Saviour from sin. It means to live the principles of the Christ life in our daily life. Whatever hinders the tangible expression of that Gospel we profess must be cast out. Is there a secret sin? It must go. Is there a trick In business that does not square with honesty? it must go. Is there a pet jealousy or envy that does not weigh well in the scales of love? It must go. Is there even a desire in the heart that is not pure and true? It must go. The outward appearance judges not the man, but the motives and desires of the heart, they are the judge. Time was when a man was deemed good if he committed no overt act of wrong. It mattered little what he thought, or what the lusts of the heart might be, so long as he did no wrong. But the searching truth of Jesus reversed these values. Not an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth, but render thou good for evil, "If thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out and cast it from thee; for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell." Nor is this strenuous ideal enough. It is not sufficient that the actions of the life conform to the laws of morality and righteousness. Listen to the words of Jesus in which He states the great Ideal: "Ye have heard how it was said by them of old, thou shalt not kill; but I say unto you that whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. Ye have heard that it was said by them of old, thou shalt not commit adultery. But I say that whosoever desireth thus to sin hath already done the sin in his heart." It is the noblest ideal that has ever been given to man. It demands the purification of the motives and desires of the heart as well as the actions of the life; for from the heart proceedeth all sin. It strikes at the very centre of wrongdoing. Thus is service to Christ made first of all a matter to the heart. The heart must be right. Then, it becomes a matter of the life. The life will be righteous if the heart is right. Follow Me, said Jesus. Get the heart and life in harmony with noble ideals. Then, "Go thou and preach the Kingdom of God." Thus j?.sus transfers the nature of service from the narrow limits of the personal into the great world-wide field of the social. The ultimate ob jeci. Decomes not one s own muiviuuai salvation, but the Kingdom of God, which is also the brotherhood of man. Jesus did not say to the young man. Let the dead bury their dead, but go thou and save thine own soul. But He did say, Go thou and save others into life, publish the message of love. In that work for others in the name of Gcd, he would save himself. There is no other way. He who seeketh to save his life shall lose it; but he who sacrifices his life for My sake, the same shall save it. The which is to say a man cannot save his own soul without seeking to save the life of a brother at the same time; a man cannot be a Christian and care nothing fnr tV>o reiieinnHnn nf thp> wnrlrl intn the Christ-like life of ligiit and love. Just Said About the Bible. The first book that was given me was a Bible, and in those far off gypsy days, as a little nomad, a little stranger, when I could not tell A from B, I used to open the book under a hedge or a tree, or in the corner of a field? and very often it was the wrong way up. But that did not matter; it was all there, and I used to kneel down beside it and pray this prayer: "Oh, God, I cannot read Thy book, but would You fill ray heart with its spirit." And the Lord heard that prayer long before 1 could read a letter; and I should not have been where I am to-day if I had not kept up that sort of attitude, and I have tried to cultivate the art of living in a a atmosphere of talking to God. And, men and women, you will have to get there if you are going to be of any service to God and humanity.? Gipsy Smith, in a .ecent address at Brooklyn, N. Y. "Thy Will; Not Mine." The more thoroughly an individual or a community is convinced that Jesus is Lord and Master and we only His servants, and the more His holy will is sought to bs ascertained and carried out, the better and more effectually will His kingdom be extended.

Half of the householders in Great Britain are in a panic, and all of them are frantically insuring themselves against liabilities of which they know nothing except that they are bound to be bothersome and may be overwhelming. The cause of their precipitate anxiety is an Act of Parliament that came into force on July 1. The title of the act looks harmless enough. It is called the Workmen's Compensation Act. We have had many such acts before and they have not disturbed the peace of the English fireside. But this one is both more stringent in its provisions and far wider in its scope than any of its predecessors. When I say that for the first time in the history of British industry it makes householders legally and financially responsible l'or any accidents that may befall the domestic servants they employ I have said enougn to account iur LUC tional alarm. It is not. often that legislation touches the home, or that the average man, still less the servant woman, is affected in any vital and personal interest by what Parliaments may do or undo. The principle of employers' liability is an old and familiar one. But hitherto it has scarcely ever made itself felt outside the spheres of business and industry. A man could forget all about It when he reached home, and as for women, there was virtually no occasion for them even to think of " i1?A 1 ? "Ktr *fhfa 9 nt it. All II1UL IB uuau5cu uj i.u.s Every one who employs a servant is now doomed to study the beauty of employers' liability in his own household, and will count himself lucky if his experience of how it works does not make vast inroads on his balance at the bank. And what applies to men applies equally to women. The mistress of the household suddenly finds her responsibilities incredibly enlarged. Hitherto they have revolved mainly round the problems of food, furniture ana feminine "help." Food and furniture will continue to make their appeal in the future as in the past, but from now onwards the servant question is enormously complicated and expanded. Not only has the mistress of the household to find servants, engage them and keep them, but to be prepared at any moment to find herself liable for any accidents they may meet with in the course of their employment. That is something abr solutely revolutionary. No act, indeed, in my time has affected anything like so huge a proportion of the people of this kingdom as this act promises to or has affected them bo intimately and unescapably and with such impartial comprehensiveness. Naturally for months past every householder in Great Britain has been "making a wild rash for cover. The insurance companies have never done such business. Whether it will prove to be profitable business no one as yet can say with any certainty. There are very few data to go upon. No statistics that I am aware of have over hoon rnmnilpfl nf the number of accidents that annually occur in domestic service. The insurance companies in fixing other premiums are frankly plunging into the dark. Everything about the act is for the present hidden in obscurity. You will hear a dozen different opinions of what its clauses mean, of the effects they are likely to produce, and of the classes of labor that come or do not come within their scope. Some people think that when the people realize by concrete experience the results of the act they will rise in great wrath and sweep the government that passed it from power.? Harper's Weekly.

Yes; respiration in plants is a scientifically established fact. All the parts of the plant breathe, and chemically this process differs in nothing from animal respiration. Until recent times k was supposed that the secretion of oxygen in the assimilation of carbonic acid was the only process of this kind taking place in plants. Today we know that plants, in the same way as animal organisms, assimilate oxygen and exhale a like volume of carbonic acid. By day, when assimilation and respiration proceed simultaneously, It is difficult to establish the process. By night, however, when assimilation Is interrupted, the exhalation of carbonic acid become perceptible. An everyday proof of this phenomenon is furnished by the corruption of the air due to the presence of plants in sleeping rooms. The reason of this corruption of the air is only and solely the fact that breathing plants, even like human beings, exhale carbonic acid.?Neft York Tribune. A Missouri Delicacy. "Craw-w-w Dads?
