George i , Currie, D. D? preached in Holy Trinity Church Simdav morn ins to the con- | gregations of Holy Trinity and St. j Aim's. Dr. Currie's subject was "Growth,if and he selected for his text II. Corinthians. v:4: "Not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon.'' He said: These words of the epistle express , the important principle that wherever there is vitality life not only adds to itself continually, but at the same time never throws away, never entirely loses the essential elements that it has once , succeeded in acquiring. That is to say. that all the time- that life is putting on raiment, as it were, or being "clothed upon"?say. in the flowers, or bush or insect or man, for that part?all that time it keeps the essentials of whatso- ] ever it has invested itself with. And ] it is never perfectly unclothed of its . fundamental gains: "not unclothed but , clothed upon." These principles hold good in relation to life of every kind and under all conditions. It is one of the great keys of nature that have been furnished to us, and its universality springs from the fact that the universe is fundamentally similar ] in all its parts. I mean to say that the universe is constituted in such a manner that the different plans of being, , the physical, the intellectual, the moral, j the spiritual, all correspond to one an- 1 other. So that whatsoever is true in on? is true in all of them. Mankind. f in fact, has an instinct to that effect. ( Our ordinary words that we use in ( talking, for instance, for physical things are mostly the same as those used for intellectual or spiritual things. The word, "right" means straight, and ' "straight" is constantly used by us in . a moral sense; the word "wrong" means twisted or corrupt, and "corrupt" often means dishonest. The things that are seen are, that is to say, | divinely created pictures of the things , that are not seen: and it is a great satisfaction that we can have a trustworthy picture of spiritual things that , p;-. * we can see. Our blessed Lord talked , in parables, not because parables are , simple, but because the truths ex- ( pressed by parables (as the loaf of . bread or the raiment or the water from ! the well, or the sparrow having his , food prepared for him, or the lily get- 1 ting its raimeut without worrying . about it) are not merely physical ( truths?you must not fall into that 1 blunder?they are truths that reach*all : the way up inrougn all the plans to the eternal kingdom. Our Lord talked in that way because He saw the whole 1 of the plan, from the top to the bottom, and He talked in no other way : to the people at large: "without a par- ' able spake He not unto them." The j plans, intellectual, moral and spiritual. , 1 are represented in the physical, and all j r ^ of them are fundamentally alike. That is why He talked in parables. I Now coine back to the general prin- ' ciple before us, "not unclothed, but ( clothed upon," and let us see to it that ; we have the physical and material idea distinctly in our heads. Here, for in- , stance, is the stump.of a tree with the , different rings of wood of . which it is ' composed. Year by year the tree has ] put on new growth, which you can see in the successive rings. -But all the ' time that it has been putting on the ] new rings it has never completely let ; go of the old ones, and the first ring of ' ail is_ rigor in me ceuire au iuc umt. Let me gi'oe the little folk a simple il- . lustration, that they may take it away ' with them. Children, yon turn an ap- \ pie on its side. Cut it down in the cen- , tre through and through. Then you have two halves, have, you not? Well, ( cut off from either half a slice, very thin, the thinner you cut it the better. Then hold the. slice up ,to the light. Now, what do you see? You s?e in the centre, distinctly, the dark outline of . the original blossom that was on the apple tree in the springtime. Now, take some examples of this , principle. There is the Blhle, for in- , stance. It is a living book. I mean by . that it was not flung down from the sky, like a meteorite, so as to laud like ! Joseph Smith's Bible somewhere in a j . valley all made up aud ready. It did not come that way; but it grc-w in the j | world like an oak or pine tree; and. ac-: j cording to what the Saviour says about j the Holy Ghost continually teaching in j I the word in successive ages, the Bible. | ] which is God's truth or the word of ; God, is, in a manner, still growing. Do you know that? It is coming out in parts. It is life from beginning to end. J It unfolds, not a single period of man's \ history only, but successive stages in 1 the growth of-the human mind. There- 1 ? fore it contains, like a tree, successive ] rings, as it were, greatly contrasted j ore with another, widely differing one . from another. In one ring, so to speak, . it is "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth." Literally, exact justice. In 1 another ring it is, "If a man strike thee ] on the one cheek turn to him the other also." In the one ring, vengeance; in ( /vfLov r>rv vonoron r-o Tho "Rihlp fiR I * IJUr ViUtl, ii\/ ? V1?5?V?IUVV. AMV . I said, thus unfolds to us successive ] ages in th? spiritual growth of man. \ Some of its stages, or rings, such as i I polygamy, we have left behind us long ! * ago; seme we have not yet reached, j J The Sermon on the Mount especially ] stretchf* out and away to the future! ? perfection of the race, when a nation ' J like Russia will be an impossibility., 1 At the present time, you know, all na- j tior.s take brute animals for their rep-! resentative coat of arms, because they j all have the brute in them. The time i will come when the bear and the hon ! i * and tije bird of prey shall all be ground ' < out of humanity, and the work be ful- j ] filled when he that is struck 011 one j t cheek will turn the other also, and the j c race will become, as it never has be-' < come. Christian. And yet whatsoever i j has been true remains true forever. ; While the Bible gives us the story i t ' of the Gospel, it continues to ret am ! ] the law in the Book of Deuteronomy. t Calvary does not blot out Sinai. They , i are related to one another. You must r know the law before you can know the r Gospel. You often hear of people bo- 1 ing extremely willing to forgive. What t is their forgiveness worth? It is not i worth anything, because they have, t never suffered from the indignant; s wrath of a iust and noble a user. Xo. i ( forgiveness is not worth anything ex- r cept where the anger restrained is the I J ring inside of it. Another thing, (led continues to clothe mankind, as He did it the tirst. He clothes the human race with ideas. Where do you think the ideas come from? Did man produce them? They come from outside, my friends. Or. rather, from the Hod. who is within us. and inspires the whole. He clothes the human race with ideas. You open the wardrobe, as it were, and there, hanging up. so to speak, are Genesis and Judges and Jeremiah and Isaiah and the (Jospels, the successive garments for man's successive mental purpose?the child's clothing, the boy's clothing, the young man's clothing, the matured clothing, the perfect ness of the fulness of stature, as in the Beatitudes, here and there, in JEpistles. in the Apocalypse, but above all in the deep mystical sense of the Bible all through?the true mystics, that we do not get from hearsay, that we know by intuition, but which, of course, to the mass of men are absolutely unknown and invisible. So far as the Bible is concerned the principle is true, "not unclothed, but clothed upon?'' You cannot make anything grow that has not roots. It is curious, but \ou cannot. Whatsoever it is sooner or later it will wither. In order to grow it lias got to grow out of something. Ideas ire precisely like plants. As I told >ou, ill thA nlnnts of the universe are aiike: growing flings are all alike, whether ideas or anything else. It is of absolute necessity that they shall have roots. Thus, for example, love, joy, peace, gentleness, goodness, truth are ideas. Nobody can complain of them, but of what conceivable use would it be to stand 011 a pillar and call out to mankind, "Be loving, be joyous, be peaceful, be gentle and good and true." if you had nothing more to say to them than that? What conceivable purchase would those principles have in the world without the spiritual reasons out of which they grow and on which they depend, namely, the facts of living religion^ The blunder of planting ideas without roots is as old as the hills. Every scholar, every student of history, 4s up 10 his knees, up to his chin, in withered sects, withered religions, withered kinks and notions of this and that sort, every one of which had a good side to it, but all of which have died for want of roots or continuous p'ower?evolution. I do not like that word, but we will use it now. Now, as opposed to both of these people. those who give the world no new truth and those who give the world nothing but new truth. The Christian church at large represeuts the laiest truths, as well as the lirst truths, and the first as well as the last. There is no fault to find with these new doctrines. Of course not. On the contrary. For instance, the dynamic power?that capital and most useful thing, Hio /Ivnomfp nnu-pr r?f tile forces Of nature?a prayerful desire for the healing of the sick. All right. The power >f altruism, sacrificed for the healing of the sins of societj\ All right. My stood friends, they are plucked straight from the branches of the tree of the gospel. There is no fault to find with these. On the contrary, it is for the sake of their production that we insist that they be taken in connection with the tree that has grown them? lesus Christ and His sacrifice from which they sprang. Every institution springs f?om some root or other. There is the font at the door of the church. Well, it represents baptism, and somebody says it is a good thing to have i conventional symbol of purity or improvement. But do you suppose it would be there at all if it were only a conventional symbol of purity or improvement? Why, my friend, that font reaches down and down through nil the strata of history; through the darkness of the Middle Ages, down to the first Christian centuries; down to Jewish rites; down to the ancient pagan and prophetic mysteries; all of which had their thought, or what answers to it, under the direction of Him who lighted, not merely Jews and Christians, but "every man that Cometh into the world." This baptism is a reality in the unicerse forever, because it lives by its roots. I might prove the same thing, if I h$d time, with regard to the cross Dr the altar, wliiqb goes down through the centuries, back to time -and space before the foundation of the world, rheso, wfth other Christian doctrines? illustrate the Divine method, which is continual progress without any loss, tn other words, as the apostle says, 'not unclothed, but clothed upon." The principle is equally true of ourselves rnd our whole existence, for apparently there is never a real break in the urocress of humanity. The Christian s never ripe, he is always ripcnipg. blven in the moment of death he is still Trowing. Obscurely, but just as steadily as when he was a babe. When passing by death through the blessed Tate like the new-born infant he is being "clothed upon" with new senses, new power and understanding, new ?rays of looking at things, so that having died, as we call it. he stretches out the arms and'limbs of his being and is 'clothed upon" like a tree# in springrime. Life is worth living. Aye. indeed, it is. Don't you ever imagine tor a minute that it is not. Life is ivorth living to a degree you have no conception of because the glory tha: is coming upon us. that is to be put upon is, may be measured, by the highest j standard the world has ever seen, the sacrifice of the Lord .Jesus Christ. Nothing is ever lost: it would be conrary to the laws of nature to suppose >ucli a thing, but it is glorified to a derree that passes understanding to con eive: "Not unclothed, but clothed lpon."

Representative Littlefield tells of a "bad quarter of an hour" he recently experienced in New York. He was on his way home from Washington, accompanied by his wife. They stopped over in New York for a few hours, and, having completed their shopping. ' aev stepped into a restaurant for o light lunch before going to their train When they had finished, and the wait er had presented a check for sixty cents, Mr. Littlefield felt tor his? pocketbook. It was gone, and not a cent did either of them have. He tried to telephone to friends whose places of business were in that section of the city, but it was a public holiday and none of them were in. He told the cashier his situation, explained who he was and how he came to be there without money. The cashier was glad to see him, etc. But that made no difference?he would not charge any more on that account; the lunches were sixty cents, and hurry up, please. Mr. Littlefield offered to leave his watch as surety, but the cashier had no use for it and wanted the change. Finally, leaving Mrs. Littlefield as security during his temporary absence, he went out and found a pawnbroker and spouted his valuable gold watch for $10 and cleared up the difficulty. Fortunately the railroad tickets were safe and they got home without further adventure. Later on, Mr. Littlefield received his pocketbook and its contents intact, it having been found by a New Jersey man in the car, and returned to the address found with it.?Lewison (Me.)
