D.D.. LL.D.. preeched In Christ Chock, bis first visit to Brooklyn cince his election to his high oflloe, Sunday morning. His subject was. "Standing Before the Master." He cboee hla text from IL Kings t2S: "He went in and stood before hla Master.** Bishop Greer said in the coarse of hla sermon: Yon will recall, perhaps, the connec tion In which these words wore spoken. Elisha the Prophet had cored a man of hla leprosy, who wanted to giro the prophet some suitable reward, but the prophet refused to take it. and aald: "As the Lord liveth 1 will not receive It" And the servant of the prophet Is not of the same mind, apd when the man departed be said to himself: "Now I will go and take somewhat of him.** And so he did. and then when he had stored It away In some secret place, ^s he supposed, he came to where his master waa and went In and stood be* fore him. And as he came, my friends, so we must come to another prophet of Israel, another and a greater one. who. although of Israel born. Is the Master of us all. to whom all hearts sre open, before whom there Is no secret, and before whom we must stand. This Is my subject for a little while this morning, "Standing Before the Master." There is a great world straggle going on to-day, which although it assumes many different forms is yet the same. It is a great struggle for freedom? a straggle which, to be tare, has been goin^ on to some extent in every age, but which in this particular age ap pears on a larger field of action with a greater number of actors partici pating in it more conspicuously per haps, and which Is carried on now as never before with an earnestness more earnest, with a purpose more resolute, and Its pitiful effort at times, with a pathos more pathetic, human life is trying to set Itself free from misery and from bondage, and to become sov ereign lord of Itself. This it is trying to do by various means nnd methods, by weapons of war on battlefields, by bullets and by ballots, by social agi tations and by political discussions, by great material and industrial advance ment and enrichments, widening out , and expanding and thus broadening more nnd more its scope, its poiyer. its dominion, and, through it all, its free dom from bondage and control. And within certain limits that is good and right, and much to be desired. But freedom is like fire. When guard ed, restrained and kept within control, it is good for service and performing many useful offices and tasks; but when It is not controlled and becomes a conflagration, then it is no longer useful and serviceable, but injurious and destructive. And are there not some signs appearing here and there, sporadically, in spots in our modern life, which show that the freedom fire to-day is getting beyond control, be coming a conflagration, burning and consuming, not only some of those old and obsolete traditions which stand In the way of progress, but some of those old and pure and good and eter nally true traditions 'without .which there can be no progress at all. A young man in this city. In the Bor ough of Manhattan, a young man of culture and refinement and position, and the graduate of a leading univer sity, remarked to me not long ago: "As long as I can manage to keep a reputable outward appearance, and contrive to live so as not to lose tho favor and good will of public opinion. why should I not live to-day precisely as I please? Am I not free? Am I not the sovereign lord and master of myself? And If I find In me certain natural tendencies, instincts, proclivi ties and passions which I love to In dulge, which I can indulge, why should I not Indulge them? Am I not free, the sovereign lord and master of my self? Whose business is It but my own, nnd what, indeed, shall hinder? Public opinion? But I am assuming that public opinion will not know any thing about it. Religion? Why, who knows anything about religion to-day? The Bible? Well, this is the twentieth century, and the Bible is on the shelf. Am I not free to do precisely as I please as the sovereign lord and master of myself?" That speech, perhaps, was to some little extent typical of a growing con dition, freedom's Arc becoming a con flagration, burning down and consum ing some of the old, true, eternal, fixed and established human religions; some of the old, true and established social restraints. And if we look at our modern society very closely we see it not only appearing here and there among the young men and the young women, but also among some others that are not yet so young, too much freedom, perhaps, among the old, if you please, when they throw aside the old fashioned feminine graces, modesties, proprieties, too much freedom In de meanor and deportment, hoping thus to show, perhaps, that they are eman cipated. But, as some one has rcmaked, such freedom is not the result of high er education, or culture, or advance ment, or progress, but of a dull and stupid Ignorance. It is a reversion of the lesson of Peter's vision, and always to call all things common and un clean. Thus to-day we see here ar.d there beginning to appear abuses of this magnificent human freedom, a dispo sition upon the part of many of every ago to push and set aside whatever seems to interfere with the freedom of their lives, with tlio full and free expression, Indulgence and gratifica tion of their desire to live and do pre cisely what they please. Aud so the children noon wander ofT to do as they please. Why not, are they not free? And the husband wanders off to do an he pleases? Why not. In ho not free? And the wife waiTders off to do as she pleases, and the marriage tow wanders off. Why not, is It not a free age? And like a house that rests upon the shifting Hand, the home breaks up and falls, and great is the fall thereof, for It pulls soclcty down. Ah, my friends, freedom Is a mag nificent and glorious thing, and It Uas? Its great and magnificent uses, and it has Its great and malevolent abuses, and In spite of ail our solemn declara tion papers and Magna Charta claims human life Is not free, except with that freedom which la the sacred moral sphere, for rich or poor, or young, or old, from moral lending comes. Free dom which comes from elsewhere Is not freedom, but bondage to our pas sions, as more and more wo give gratl* flea t Ion to tliein; bondage to our cir cumstances as more and inoro we give multiplication to them, ami, worst of all. bondage to ourselves, our own Im perial selves, and from our own prison selves unable to escape. There Is no such thing as true and nndoubted freedom for human life, freedom for the human conscience, freedom for the human heart, freedom I for tho ?oni. wwmt m we lenra to-day to stand before MB* great eternal Lord. Where to the neater who, as we come and stoad before him. and enter Jnto hie ;rmi? to receive our freedoaa, can fMAm to us, who Bret of all can gift what >00 and 1 need, caaodien to freedom. The Muter ante whem a? hearts are open, from whom no eeereto are hid. who knows It aH ? the whale story of oar life, the eocrot do and ehame. con cealed perhape from ethers, bat not concealed from Hlaa, from whom no secrets are hid; the Master who. like oo one else, can fire conscience acquit tal and atart us aflrooh Sn life, grant oa pardon of the eoaoctence. of sin and wrong. Men hare always wanted that forglveneea, and to Jeeas Chrlat they hare found It. and they Had It In Him to-day. The poor outcast sinner upon the streets of the city goes to stand before Him. not like the servant In the story of the text, to condone snd ex cuse his sin. but to acknowledge his fault and to receive forgiveness. And that voice speaking to man. rinsing down through all the ages, is speaking to them to-day. eaylng. "Go in peace." and to the sinning woman. "Neither do I condemn thee, go and sin no more." With us ordinary and commonplace persons. la there not some little spot in our hearta where, in loneliness, we dwell; where the heart cries out for sympathy for aome one to stand be aide it; and It la not until It learns to go and atand "before Him, unto whom all secrete are known-Jesus Christ the Master?that this sympathy and fellowship is found. Conscience free dom giving, heart freedom giving, and then soul freedom giving, where tbe soul seems to reach the home to which it belongs and to find its greatest lib erty in the bosom of the Eternal. When once we come upon the limita tions of a person, some one has said. It is all over with him. Has he knowl edge. enterprise, ability, it boots not; no matter how attractive he was yes terday. bow great an inspiration, be seemed like a limitless sea; but we have found his shore, and found It a pond, ami we care not it we never see him again. Not so with Jesns Christ. We never find Him out. He Is alwaya beyond us. and the nearer and closer we come to Him, He is still beyond us,, like some great path of golden llgbt shining down upon us across tbe face of tbe dark and troubled waters from some far off horlson line where eartb and heaven seem , to meet and where the soul finds Its true liberty. Its free dom. its true dwelling place in Jesus Christ the Master. Is it not so? Let human experience testify and answer how it Is that Jesus Christ has seemed to raise up tbe soul that Is cast down to Its freest fellowship in Cod. That is true human freedom, nnd not until we find it there will we find It anywhere? not until we ko in and stand before the Master. Thus you nnd I, if our Christian life is to have sincerity nnd honesty of purpose. If It is to have growth and development in it? yea. more, if It is to have peace and power and freedom in it, that is what you and I must try to do. day after day. through all our life on earth, until at last, when tbe day of life is over and the bnsy world is hushed and the evening shades come and the twilight gathers around us and lifts us into the cloud to be seen of men no more, then If nny one sboukl ask: "Where Is he? Where did he go?" the answer will seem to come: "He went in and stood before his Master." V?an Vrnl!, Tt Is when our faith In God the Father, Son and Holy (ihost is quietly expressed in daily action that It can and doe* hear fruit in and tell upon the faith and life of other men. The man who should definitely regulate his re ligious life and devotion with the thought mainly before him of how he will thus by example be influencing other people is, I think, approaching the whole question from a wrong side, and is in grave danger of doing positive hntui first to himself and then to otb ers. Bnt it remains true that in Ibis, as in other matters, "No inan llveth to himself," and that the attitude he vis ibly and hsbltuaily takes in religious matters must, whether he wishes it or not, tell, for good or ill,' upon those about him. How infinitely that en hances the importance of what every one of us believes and does!? Arch bishop of Canterbury. Thwarted Plans. It la on evJl thing and bitter to be unhindered In one's life by God. It !s no gift of freedom promised, but n curse bestowed when It is said of Kphraltn, "Let him alone." It Is, the final word of doom when the Lord says, "I let them go after the subborn ness of their heart, that they might walk in their own counsels." When the prayer was offered. "Suffer us to go Into the herd of swine," we may be sure the request was granted solely because offered by demons. Ours be the Joy that our wishes are opposed. It is proof we are sons of God. Let us rejoice we are not visited with the contempt of divine indiffer ence. Let us write it on onr hearts this day as one of the gladdest prom ises of God's Word.

The appearance of a bark disease among the Para rubber tress in cer tain districts in Ceylon during 1903 created some alarm among rubber planters, but prompt measures for its treatment were carried out under the adrice of the Government mycologist. Mr. J. B. Carruthers. the officer in questmen, states that the disease was due to a canker fungus; further de tails regarding its structure and treat ment will form the subject of a later paper. Phosphate rock Is of organic origin, largely derived from guano and decay ing animal matter which contains phosphoric acid. In rainless regions such as the Peruvian coast and some of the Pacific islands, the guano may accumulatc to great thickness without loss of soluble matter. In moist dis tricts, however, the phosphoric con stituents are dissolved out by per<-o latlng waters, and the solutions com ing in contact with limestone may con vert the latter into lime phosphate. The phosphate depostts of Florida are thought to have formed in this man ner. Principles of construction that archi tects have slowly worked out, Lord Avebury suggests, were adopted by plants millions of years ago. Some plant Stems are round, others are tri angular, others quadrangular, and so on, and it seems possible to give a me chanical explanation of the differ ences. Builders have adopted the girder as the most economical method of resisting a strain in one direction. Plants seem to have built on a like plan, tree trunks being round to re sist strain from nil directions, while plants with opposite leaves and strain in two directions linve two girders, giving a quadrangular stem, and tri angular and pentagonal stems may l?e accounted for as strengthening against like obvious strains. AN INGENIOUS CAPTAIN.: Skipper Mattson Used m Novel Met It oil of Stopping ? Leak in HI* Bo?t. Many liavc read in Mr. Hopkinson Smith's story of "Cnp'n Bob" who stopped up a hole in his ferry-boat with his own arm, and thus saved many lives. The London Daily Ex press describes a method of stopping a leak no less novel and ingenious than "Cap'n Bob's," and not so trying to physical well-being as that adopted by the heroic pilot. The Norwegian bark Flora, bound for Cape Town, ex perienced in the Bay of Biscay such terrific weather that she was obliged to lie to for six days. In the buffeting that the vessel re ceived she sprang a leak, and began to take in water at the rate of six inches an hour. All hands were kept at the pumps day and night without intermission. As the gale abated the bark drove before it into calmer seas. Captain Mattson found the leak was getting worse and set his brains to work. He constructed a great water proof canvas bag. sixteen feet long, six feet in circumference and two feet in diameter. This ho kept distended by the means of hoops. A window of glass was let into the side, five feet from the bottom. The captain stepped into the bag, and by means of tacklo was drawn under water so that he could sec the leak. The other end of the bag being open and above water, he had plenty of air and could com municate with bis men. Two sleeves had been made in the bag, and were tied tightly about his wrists, so that lie could work freely. In this way, looking at the leak through the inserted window, the cap tain worked steadily while the ship was hove to. The vessel rolled in a heavy swell, and sometimes Captain Mattson found himself from fceven to ten feet below the surface. At one time the chafing of his feet against the ves sel's side wore a hole in the bag, and the water entered and covered him. But he was drawn up In good time, the bag was repaired, the work con tinued and the leak stopped. The Kltnple Life Eipcnilre. And, really, the simple life Is fright fully expensive. At a reeent entertain ment in this city a great luxury in the serving of the second supper was the introduction of country sausage and buckwheat cokes with maple syrup. But the sausage came from the farm of the Lost and represented a small fortune, as the pigs from which the piece de resistance was made were Molded animals with pedigrees. The buckwheat was grown in special fields which cost ever so much a foot, and the maple syrup was taken front trees In the most expensive Adirondack pre serve. And thus can thousands of j dollars be spent on the simple life, while truffles, pate, terrapin and such other rarebits of a former generation are left for the tables of the middle classes with moderate means.?
