Y. ? Preaching at the Irving Square Presbyterian Church on the theme "The Faultless Christ," the Itev Ira Wemmell Henderson, pastor took an hi.s text Luke 2.'': 4, "I And no fault in this Man." Ho said: This honest answer of Pontiutt Pi late to the statements of the lying multitude is the testimony of all men who study, with insight and under standing, the career of Jesus Christ. Put to any test and Judged by whatso ever standard you may will, the Mas ter of us all will bo found without flaw, fault or spot. Measured by any rule you may suggest, Jesus tnoets requirements to the full. Hoes your ideal of manhood demand more than mortal men reveal of virtue and of worth, there the Saviof stands to supply your soul's desire. Do you ask for weight of mind or depth of thought, who. can outmatch Jesus? Do you seek for clarity of. vision and for spiritual force?there is none like Him. For downright manliness and for that hallowedness of heart which marked Him ?as divine, none can compare with the Son of (Jod. Each of us must declare Him fault less, all of us must admire and should imitate His perfectncss of life. Pontius Pilate pronounced Jes us free of guilt aftet a limited dis cussion of Jesus' regal claim. In this day and hour millions of men, after careful analysis and close scru tiny of llis life and claims, glory in Ills perfectness and hall Him Son of God and saving Lord. Shall we not do honor for a moment to this self declared Messiah, whom we have crowned as King? To the faultlessness which Pilate ascribed to Him let us add .he testi mony of St. John, who has preached Him as the fulness of truth and grace. Faultless, I he possessor and the re verter of divine truth, powerful In His wealth of grace, so was our Lord. For Ills excellency in these three winning virtues let us pay lliin hmn age now. "Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to Ihe people, I find no fault in this Man." Fauitlessness is perfection. To he without fault is to free from defect. As the Ital ians would phi'ase it, to ho faultless is to he lacking in nothing. Jesus was a faultless man?only such could have been the mouthpiece of the convincing oracles which the Savior brought from God. Faulti nesa, which is hut another name for falseness, was apart from His na ture. Jesus made no pretensions. He was just what lie claimed to he. Sincerity, rang from I lis every word and made eloquent Ills every deed. Deceit and decept ion were not in I lis line. Often the Lord sent His truth home veiled with well chosen words. But at no time did lie usa deceit to gain His ends. True enough it is, that plain statement of the truth made Him so many enemies at times, that it is a wonder that, now and then. He did not. pare the truth to save Himself friends. But no, the Christ was not on earth to trim or to cut the truth to suit those whom It hardest hit. His mission was to preach t.hrt truth, the whole truth, and nothing hut the truth, as com ing from tlie mouth of God. The Savior was no trimmer. Oftentimes His words laid bare the soul secrets of the men to whom lie spoke. Now and then, lie cut them to the very quick. But because their hearts were hard <fras not. His fault. His was the blameless, faultless ilfe and theirs were the hearts that were dead in sin and to shame. Without guile and without guilt is the judgment of our minds and hearts upon this man In whom I'ilate round uo lauu. John tolls ua in the verse which wo Just read that Jesus was full of grace. Grace is graciousness, loveli ness. Coming to us as thy dispenser of the love of Cod freely bestowed upon men in sin Jesus exemplifies in His own life that gracious loveliness which *He preaches. Pure, gentle, noble, upright, kinjl and true, Christ is a joy to eye and soul alike. To gaze into His face must have been to walk with Cod to t hose who under stood. And those to-day within the unhindered influence of the Master may bear upon their own faces the marks of inward loveliness of life. The power of transforming grace \vill change not only the spiritual nature of a num. but. also will re moid and transfigure the very feat ures of his face. A countenance that is hard with sin will mellow into gentleness and peace through the yielding of the sonl to the Savior That quiet charm of manner which must have been our Lord's, and which is the badge of Godly living, which many Christians bear, may be the possession of each of us. do we want it. You know the gracious cast of countenance I mean. That quiet, holy, saintly look which fills the faces of many nu n and women in whose hearts the ; pirit moves. Who does not want it? Graco is kindness. Malthie Bab cock pnl. it well when ho :;aid "kind ness is recognising another's kin ship." Jesus saw the same ances try in other nun which made Him a Son of God. Seeing the need of dy ing men. His kinsmen, our Lord yearned to give them life forever more. Not His own convenience, but their need, moved Christ to ac tion. Personal ambition crept into His sou 1 but once, only to be~savrl flcod forthwith to human need. Sa tan offered power, but Jesus hun gered after souls. Satan preferred money, the Savior chose men. Kind ness proved the inner grace of Christ. And a Chrisily kindness exercised by each of us will not only makes us friends, but will also cause us to grow In grace. Grace is good-will. This is not {o Imply that we are nu rely to i.avo a hopo thnt lite matt next to us may gain success through the expend it tire of hio own effort. Good-will that counts for anything gets behind the? working brother and helps him ahead. It is the spirit of assisiaace, not so much the roar of applause, that we want. Good will becomes concrete and an aid moat when it re eolves 11b?- 1 f into loving helpfulness. A good round of applause may put heart into the Christian who is work ing hard for Christ, but ready assis tance from the brethren who watch so sympathetically the progress of his toil will !>*? most a benefit to tlu? harvester of souls. I.ove for men in sin, and words iof approval for thoso who are brcaklnK Satan's shackles from off their lives, are all well enough so far as they ko, but unless the love and approval are expressed in willing ai<f, th<;y are not most of use. God always felt and always does feel for men, the Father ever has a good word for those who aro leaving sin behind, but the tflft of Christ to point to us the way, and the sending of the spirit who shall send us on ahead toward God, are more necessary and grateful to our hearts than all Jehovah's words of praise. Approbation, applause and approval are good; well wishing* ami godspeeds are full of Incentive to any man; but that good-will which assists and aids and helps to clear the way to material success or to God Is the good-will which most brings us cheer. Good-will Is willing helpfulness. Faultless, truthful, graceful was the Lord of our lives. And It is be cause lie was without spot or blem ish or reproach; because lie was the incarnation of divine virtues; be cause He showed grace that Is suf ficient unto our salvation, that wo crown Him King. Had the Christ not been without blame; had He not been the living expression of the truth that He was; had lie failed to evidence a helping grace, our hearts could never hail I-Iim as divine. The first appeal of Jesus to our minds is His faultlessness In the dis semination of the truth or God; the next appeal is the absolute consisten cy of His actions with His words. The spiritual facts which Jesus brought to men deserve and fasten their attention. For depth in philos ophy, for insight into the furthest reaches of human life; for clearness of application of divine truth to the needs/of men; for explication and unfolding of those words of wisdom which point us to a fuller life in God, the Master is incoinoarable. Many of the teachings of Jesus were not new in substance, many of His ut terances may he paralleled in tlie writings of the OM Testament and in the teachings of not a few philo sophic leaders of the world's {jreat. faiths. But Jesus magnified and sanctified all the old material that lie touched, by the way lie spirit* uali/.ed it and turned it up toward God. Many of the more prominent of Jesus' thoughts were not new in sub stance to the men and women of His time; most of them felt and admit ted the force of 11 is message no doubt, so far as they went with Him; but the central facts are these: that Jesus breathed new life and impart ed new meaning to their old beliefs; and then lived entirely the life He prcacncu. Jesus was faultless, full of grace and truth. 11 is faurtlessnoss implied no blame at all. His was the fulness of grace; that is to say, IIo not only brought men assurance of ills power to save, by word of mouth, but also proved by deed His potency and ef ficiency. Full of truth. He lived that life we should expect. He demon strated the worth of His own teach ings by His own allegiance to them. Believing that sin was shameful. He lived a blameless life. Preaching free forgiveness and the possibility of a richer life through the grace of God. He proved His own possession of the grace Ho claimed to be the need of men. To IIim truth is eter nal and is to be obeyed. Claiming to know and to reveal entire truth Jesus never balks His own best words. , How different are we. We hate sin, we want grace, we love truth is fact. And we who have tried truth. But yet we hug the wrong; we shut the heavenly glory from our hearts; we block and balk by action the truth we try to preach. Jesus is faultless. His grace is real. His truth is fact. And we who have tried the power of His grace to reform our lives and to renovate our souls are sure that only as we live His truth are wo able to be found without a fault. Full worthy was our Lord to be our Savior and to receive our trust and faith. The beauty of 11 is mes sage and Ills life are past compare. Nowhere do we find another such a man. On His divine side He is su preme. As a man He is the manifes tation of tlie humahity of God. Christ not only spake things but lived them. The spirit of adoration that bound the twelve to Jesus should make us learn to love Him more. Entering into union within Him we may pro gress into faultlessness and grow in wealth of grace and the knowledge of the truth. l)r. Parkhurst lias said a true word when he calls attention to the fact that. "Christians grow by addition, not by subtraction." When first we think upon it the statement seems to lie but half the truth. l)ut do we consider for a moment we will Hud it fair. The accretion by the Christian of spiritual power will drive sin out. There will he no room for evil. The life that is drawing close to God has no need to subtract sin. Lot the heart pay strict attention to the work of soul culture and ;Jatan will sub tract himself. Most of us spend so much time in subtraction that we never learn to add. Keep increasing the measure of soul force that, is yours and sin will make itself a minus quantity. Try to do what you know you ought to do and you will find the problem of how to escape sin i.s lightened of itself. All things in the last analysis must be brought to the test of Jesus Christ, lie is our Savior and our one example. Mo is the tost of our fit ness and the pattern for our faith. His grace may be ours: the appropri ation of His truth is the business of the Christian. The vigor of our grace a:.d truth is the measure of assured success. Our faultlessncss will be judged of men and Cod l>y the sam ples wo are of the iniluenoe of the life and word, the truth and grace of You Are Sufficient.

The best cleansing preparation for brushes is A solution mode by dissolv ing one pound of washing soda in a quart of water.
