Now, my brother, if you believe In Jesus Christ and hope some day to be saved by him why is it that your belief does not affect your life? Why are you not man enough to go and work in his vineyardV Your slothful, lazy habits, in a spiritual sense, ought to make you despise yourself and have utter con tempt for your past actions in reference to your church. You know it is ingrain ed in every manly man to despise a shirk. If a party of us should go hunt- %bitago, Aug. 2.

If one of the men refused to do it we would never take him out upon another camping trip. We would say to one another: “That man is no good.

He molded them, as I believe no modern Christian minister was ever able to mold them.

But I would like to speak a word before I close to the good, moral, Chris tian man who believes in God and yet is not a church member. You are ready to confess him in private con versation and yet not willing to public ly confess him as a church member, though in that way you might help the women who are laboring in the gospel. In spite of orthodox doetrjne I shrink from the thought that you will ever lie ultimately destroyed. But this I do know—your actions in refus ing church membership may be the means of destroying scores and scores of immortal souls. That church membership is a mighty help to every man in his struggle to lead a truer, purer, nobler Christian life there is no doubt. Every true Christian is a better Christian when he, gives his alle giance to some one church and allows his name to be placed upon the church roll yet not a church member.

Four centuries and a half have passed since it came into the mind of Pope Nicholas V. to make the Vatican the largest and most beautiful palace of the Christian world, says the New York' Herald. He planned to include Night Was Iter Terror. “I would cough nearly all n'.ht long,” writes Mrs. Chas. Appleg of Alexandria, Ind., “andcould bhr ny get any sleep.

It was the common soldier, who broke into a run and swept up to the Spanish block house. "And if,” said Colonel Uoose- life's blood of their human victims.” The Shirk In Religion. Now, if you despise a shirk in pleas ure and despise a shirk in business, how Is it that you are willing to be yourself a shirk in religion? You. my brother, believing in Jesus Christ and hoping some day to lie eternally saved by bis blood, ought in common hon esty to fully realize that your actions toward the church are Just as despica ble and contemptible as the shirking characteristics which you despise in others. You are practically saying to yourself: “I want to some day reach heaven; but in the meantime I want my wife, my mother, my sister, my daughter, to do all my praying and working in the church. When 1 am in my last sickness I want their minister to come and fix tilings all up for me in a spiritual sense. And when I am dead I want their minister to state over my casket that 1 have repented at the eleventh hour and have been saved all right. In other words.

The Duty of At a u. Every true man knows that his wife is not as useful and active a member if the Christian church when she goes to church alone as she would be if her husband were ready to go by her side and help her In her Christian endeavor to spread the gospel. The marital^ties are very sacred. They unify in more ways than one the twain who once stood at the nuptial altar. After a husband and a wife have been living together for many, many years they straining influence of church member ship? Do it without a public profession of Jesus Christ before the church al tars? Being able by the grace of God to persuade a good, moral, upright man to j publicly profess Jesus Christ in a church aisle was the means. I believe, by which I have accomplished my greatest single work for good in the gospel ministry w That man was one of the leading millionaires of Pittsburg. velt, “I had not charged the enemy at rigious faith without lifting a hand no t only begin to think alike, but also Every one who knew him was ready tc a dead run I would have been run down by my own men, who were run ning after me.” It was the "man be hind the gun” who captured San Juan hill, and he should have his share of the glory, which belongs not to Theo dore Roosevelt or any other officer alone. Tilt* AVoiuitu Behind the Gnxpel Gap. But, though in military parlance we may talk about the “man behind the gun,” we cannot in the church mili tant. It is the “woman behind the gos pel gun” who for centuries upon cen- 1#ries has borne the greatest brunt of religious strife, it is the “woman be hind the gospel gun” in the luime, in the church, on the street, in the coun try, in the city and in the foreign missions who has carried the name of Jesus Christ all around the world. If is the “woman behind the gospel gun” who has won the greatest gospel vic tories for our churches in the past. Therefore the purpose of this sermon i|| to make a manly plea to tin* fathers and husbands, brothers and sons, of the families of our churches to take their positions in religious work beside their mothers and wives, sisters and daughters. Nearly every man in my audience today is a believer in Jesus Christ. It is so with other churches. Infidels and agnostics are still numerous, unhap pily, but they are not in our churches, aud the voice from the pulpit does not reach their ears. My ministry so far as preaching to Infidels and atheists and agnostics is concerned is practical ly ended. Theodore Cuyler, the grand old man of the Brooklyn pulpit, lately declared that in a ministry of over sixty years he had never yet preached a sermon upon the divine authenticity of the Scriptures. He believed that almost every person with whom his work came in contact was not only a believer in the Bible, but also in the divinity »f Jesus Christ. I believe that Dr. Cuyler is right. 1 believe that ev ery man in church today is not only a believer in Jesus Christ, but that he also expects some day to receive Christ as his Saviour and to lie redeemed from sin by the atonement of the cross. Chrlnt’a NuvinK Power. You show the fact involuntarily, al most automatically. I can prove to you in very few words that you are a believer in the saving power of a divine Christ. How do you act? What do you say in a crisis? Supposing you were swept off tin* deck of a transatlantic steamer like Captain Courageous in Rudyard Kipling’s story? What would be the first cry which would involun tarily come to your lips? Would you not call out at the top of your voice, "My God, help?" Supposing you were caught In a blizzard upon the western prairie. After you had for hours been floundering around aud around in the ever deepening snow, would you not, with your benumbed faculties, moan: b "O Christ, save me! O Christ, save " me!” When we were climbing over the Johnstown mins a few days after the awful Concmangh flood, Rev. Dr. Beale told me that during the pande monium of death a saloon keeper, us ho was sweeping by, ennght hold of his church’s steeple. As he hung there he was heard again and again to beseech God for ids life. Mr. Moody said that when he was returning from Europe on the last trip of his life the steamer for a whole day was every moment ex- 4 peeted to go to the bottom. Then he heard men everywhere publicly pray ing to God for help—men who, perhaps, had not publicly or privately' prayed to God for years. Their prayers at that time proved conclusively that most men do believe in Jesus Christ; that most for Christ, without doing one stroke of work in the Master’s service.” Oh, my brother, such a statement as that is so mean and despicable I do not believe you have ever fully realized what your gospel shirking lias signified. Come, man, and be a true man in the spiritu al as well as in the temporal way. Come and take off your coat in holy enthusiasm. Do not compel the wom en folks of your families lo longer bear the brunt of the gospel struggle. At It in the name of the Jx>rd Jesus! At It now! At It all the time! Hear the plea of the manliest rhristiau man who ever lived. This plea he made to men: "Help those women! Help those women!” Help them now. A strong, robust, manly man compels tin* admiration of other men. There is a popular theory abroad that a manly man can never fascinate the mascu line world as a beautiful woman can. Rut I do not think that that theory is true. I know it is not in my own case. I also know it is not true with many of my gentlemen friends. Often, when walking through the crowded thor- oughtares of Chicago. I have hud a member of my family say, "Did ynu ever see a more beautiful face than that?” “Who? Where?” I would ask. “Why, that beautiful woman who was walking there with that man.” "Oh.” I would answer. “I did not see the woman, but I did see the man. I was watching him very closely. My! He w;us a strong man. There was a some thing in the look of his eye, in the set of his mouth, in the strength of his shoulders and in his well poised, self confident walk that proved to me he was a leader among men. I did not see the woman, but what a fine sih-cimen of a man he was!” I believe that the fascination which a strong man has upon me is the same fascination which he has upon all men exisirt those men tal weaklings and masculine nonenti ties who think that the chief purpose for which a man was created was to eat and sleep, to dress and undress. If a manly man is to have such a great influence upon other men, who will he able to do your Christian work unless you are willing to do it? There arc persons and spheres which you. aud only you, can reach. The women who have labored with I’aul In the gospel cannot do it. Your mother, wife, or sister, or daughter cannot do it. You know that there are today dowm in your store some clerks whom no human being can touch for Christ as you, their employer, can touch, if you will. Would you not be a Christian mer chant like William E. Dodge, or a Christian statesman like Governor George N. Briggs, or a Christian soldier like General O, O. Howard or A. W. Reilly, or a Christian physician like Charles Jewett, or a Christian lay president of a college like Msrk Hop kins? These men had great influence in the financial, or the professional, or the political realm. Their greatest and most fur reaching influence, however, w r as when, ns earnest, oonseersted Christian leaders, they stood tx fpre the young men of this world as living ex amples of faith in Jesus Christ. They were manly Christians in the busy marts appealing to#men. True Courage. Would you not like to be a Christian scientist like Henry Drummond? Borne people are foolish enough to suppose that his greatest work was In the l»c- tures on natural history, which'be first delivered before ids classes in the Free Church college of Glasgow. But I tell you that the greatest of all the work Henry Drummond did in his life was done when he stood before the young university men of Edinburgh, gathered to grow to look alike. I have again and again noticed the similarity of looks which are seen upon the faces of aged husbands and wives wd>o have long lived side by side. They have un consciously absorbed parts of each oth er's physical as well as mental person alitles. Ho when a husband is an ir religious man. a noneburebgoer, a scoffer, a ridiculer, his sneers and shortcomings have a marked evil effect upon the life of the Christian woman who at tlie marriage altar has pledged to him her love and lier life. She may fight against deterioration as she will, but in spite of herself she cannot be as good a woman as if she hud married a good Christian man, who has lioen consecrated to the service of the lA>rd Jesus Christ from the day that he left his mother's home. Husbands, in view of this tremendous fact, are you ready today to curtail testify that he was square through and through. Ills word was as good as his bond. He was the soul of honor. Yet year in and year out he went among the business men of the Smoky City as a good, moral man and not as a Christian man. The young man said: “Well, if I can be as straight and true ns Mr. So-and-So, that is all 1 ask. I guess my chance for heaven will be first class.” I^heard of such remarks made by the young men. I made up mv mind I would carry them straight rt „ ^ . , , ‘ ^ The special w north line of the Leonine wall. Alexander VI. constructed what is known as the old palace, called the Appartamenti Borgia, and to this part Sixtus IV. added in 1174 the Hixtine chapel. The Belvedere was erected by Innocent VIII. in 14‘J0, and Julius II. united the Belvedere to the palace by the celebrated loggie. To Julius II. the Vatican is indebted for the be ginning of the museum, and its founda tions were laid in the gardens of the Belvedere under ids initiation. After his death Loo X. completed the loggie. employing Raphael to direct the work. By 1000 tin* section of the palace was completed which includes the ordinary residence of the pope.
