TO GEI OUR REWARD
DR. CHAPMAN'S SUNDAY SERMON
He Shows to us the Oreat flercy of J
Christ Who Grants us a Reward;
For Faithful Service.
Xf.w Yobk City. --The distinguished
and well-known evangelist, the Rev. l)r.
Wilbur Chapman, has furnished for publication
the following sermon entitled
"Rules of Service." It was preached from
the text: "No man that warreth entangletli
himself with the affairs of this lite. |
that he may please him who hath chosen
him to be a soldier. And it a man also j
strive for masteries, vet is he not crowned, i
extent he strive lawfully." 2 Timothy, ii: I
4. 5.
It is not er.on~h simply to perform what
^ight lie called good deed*. in the estimation
of the world, for u:i" might receive the
applause of men. and miss his reward at
the hands of God. Neither is it enough
that nnc should be so given to service that I
lie might win the applause of people everywhere
There is no special promise in
God's word written for the man who is
simply faithful in outward service. Paul
must have had this in mind when he said:
"Vet is he not crowned except he strive '
lawfully."' It is a good thing tor the Christian
to square his life, both public and private,
his innermost thoughts, and the hidden
tn.an of his heart, by the word of God.
to see if in any point he is falling a way
from God's nlan and the lloly Ghost's
guidance. When John, in Revelation,
wrote. "Ix-t no man take thy crown." he
presented what to my mind is one ot the
mosi solemn subjects in all the Bibl^?
namely, that one might be saved, have hfs
-ins forgiven, stand before (lot! justified,
be perfectly sv.rc of being ultimately rereived
into Hi- presence. and be -.1 ved
throughout eternity, and yet mi? his reward
ami lose his crown.
This chapter is a note of warning ami a
heart orv tr> people everywhere to search
their lives, aided by the Spit it. to u.?k tlod
to deal very thoroughly with i h'-nt even
though this dealing nu.y in can ilie cutting
oft or some w:y much loved -in or the gitin?
uj> in some long cherished plan.
1. AH -trvicc- rau-t he prompted by
right motives.
It is not so much how tin* work appears
outwardly that commends it t.? Hod- 111
this His judgment is given differently irotn j
that of titan, hut it is alt-i^v!her a question 1
as to what, hack of it a'l. prompted the j
-orvice. Tite giving of <he widow's mite
and its' lteariv acceptance by oar Ma-lcr !
is an illustration of thi- tact, for in lite sir- 1
sire that prompted the gift *>.ts found i
that which was of ten thon-aud times J
more \alue than the gift itself.
One might, preach the gospel and win (
hundreds of sou'.- for t.'hri-!. and the motives
that prompted lite preaching he
wrong. One might sup.uint-.-nd .1 Sundayschool
with much success, he a t -.u-h?r ot
acknowledged ability, lead the young people's
work iti the church, he a cno-cn lead- j
cr of the mission work, and upon all these
position- have the seal of the approval 01 J
nten ayij the plaudits of the limitilmle he- j
cause of acknowledged success, and yet '
miserably fail at the great day 01 awards !

fishnets and carried 0:1 in pride. It was
not done for the glory of God. hni. rather
for the glory of man. One might build
chimhu*. and lor his supposed generosity
be highly esteemed of men. and yet receive
v. rebuke from?^he lips of tin* ji->en
Chritt. One might endow schools which)
God would use tor the betterment of kocity
and. for the accomplishment of His
own purposes or the working of His own
plans, and yet have no recognition on the
great day of awards. One might, give his
money to clothe the poor ami leed the hungry;
he might 1* known wherever the
Knglish language is spoken. lor his charitable
works, and when the great dav oi
awards should coine might hear the Master
say:
"Depart, for I never knew yon."'
His soul is saved, hut his life is lost. All
of these things are true, because, while
outwardly the service was wondei ml and
the success great, the motive that promoted
it all .was selfish. Jesus Himself has
said that there would l>c ?.?ntc who
should *iy: "Lord, have we not prophesied
in Thr name, and in Thy name done
many wonderful works?" Thus the teaching
becomes more intense and the lesson
more startling, for one might even think
that lie was shaping his life according to
Hod's plan and yet most terribly ntiss the,
reward.
When Paul wrote bis ,'lr-l loiter to the
Corinthians he said: "For other foundation
c?n no man lay than that is laid,
which is .lesu- Christ. If any man's work
shall is' burned he shall suffer loss; but
he himself shall be saved; yet so as by
ire." This is very clearly, to my mind, a
lesson to Christian workers in general, but
ir. in tPirfiMil.'ii* The fnmtii 11 iun
is the same for us all Jesus Christ, hut
the superstructure may be very different.
It i? a most solemn thought one of the
most solemn I know that when the float
day of tire shall eorne every man's work
shall be tried, of what sort it is. The ministry
of the man whom the world honored
hall be touched by tire. The service of
the Christian worker, ironi the first effort
made for Chiist to the last, shall certainly
be tested. The teaching of the Sundayschool
teacher, throughout his or her entire
Christian experience, -hall !>< brought
beneath the searching light of the Son of
Cod. The testimony ol every Christian
in every land thall be searched through
and through. The life in the home, in the
place of business, in the streets, at home
or in foreign lands. l?v day and bv night. j
shall be tested l?y the fire of Cod. If the I
work is burned, the man shall suffer lo>?. I
but be liiuwlf be saved, though a- by 'ire. j
It is a tremendously solemn nivs?ag?.

trir.c- of separation in the Old Testament
for the priests is for us in the New Testament,
for Peter tells u? that believers are
priests unto God, every one of us. The
Old Testament doctrine has, however,
heen intensified by the teaching and the
touch of desus Christ.
"And thou -halt put the mitre upon his

"And he that is the high pr.e*i annaig

lu the olden times, when the
priests or the peonle were in touch with
sin. the ashes ot the red heifer were
sprinkled upon them for cleansing, and

In the New Testament a better provision
is made?Hebrews ix: 1.1, 14: "For if

Recognizing all this liie lVunsyivaulu
State Orange proposes to urge upon the
next Legislature the passage of a hill
for road improvement, ihp expense 10
bo mot by a spe"iai tax of 0110 mill on
corporate ami personal property. li is
estimated that this, would yield a revenue
of $2,001 M.KMi, ample for the purpose.
Fortunately titer, is no need of an increase
of taxation to the amount of
SI f< r mind roads. There is now lying
in about Bin banks ami lirniu-ial Institutions
nearly Sb.uyo.tKMi to ilie credit
.of the Slate Treasury. Of this money
S2.Ooo.ooO. or more if necessary, can
be expended mi good roads without
fiscal iiieouveii:?:.ee to the t'omuimiwt
a lib.
In order to thoroughly accomplish
this work it lias been suggested thai a
State Bureau of l'ublie Highways be
created. with an experienced civil inglneer
for Superintendent and with
deputy superintendents fa No to he civil
engineers) over conveniently divided
districts. But the work of good roads
can be accomplished without the creation
of a pew bureau of the State
government. There is the Department
of Iuterual Affairs, with an ample
equipment of clerks wlmse liine bangs
heavily on their hands. It Is requisite
only to apply this department to the
purpose for which it was intended by
the trainers of the constitution. I'y
providing for a Superintendcney of
ltoads as a bureau of the department,
under a skilled civil engineer assisted
by a sufficient number of district d? ptttios,
to lie appointed under civil service
rules, the official force would be
complete.
It cannot be- denied, however, that
srnte formidable obstacles stand in the
way of establishing a system or goou
roads throughout the State. There ts
first the disposition to ?-lii:vr to the antiquated
and Ineffectual system now existing.

and its labor commutations of road

For tlie Grr*t llisbwiir.
Western enterprise Is proverbial, but
the Secretary of the New York and
Chicago Itond Association was not prepared
for the bunch of applications
that the members of the Chicago Automobile
Club sent iu to him. 1 'resident
R l>ounld and other members are
earnest iu their efforts to make the
project of a continuous highway a success.
The Chicago contingent will devote
every energy toward securing the
co-operation of every one possible
along the line between Toledo and the
metropolis on the lake.
The secretary is in receipt of several
letters from people somewhat removed
front the route proposed. It was expected
that sontc feeling might arise
regarding the road, and then-fore the
course was not arbitrarily tixed. exfr
? tr..nor<tl u-av OwlliC 1o the
'fleet of the coal ilisturhanees and the
elections, nothing except routine business
will be done by the representatives
of the association.
Already a movement is under way
1o arouse the members of Congress to
a realization of the necessity for good
roads. A few Senators and Representatives
have Been interviewed, and
they were more or less familiar with
the subject and ready to consider any
argument in favor of legislation toward
building good roads. The movement
toward securing a continuous
highway from Xew York to Chicago is
advancing rapidly, and only requires
the combined efforts of the good roads
worker to bring it to a successful issue.
Not a dissenting voice has been heard
regarding it.

The Movement in Roanoke, Va .
Ti i? irmtifviiti? to learn lhat the good
roads movement begun in Koanoke
County .soino weeks ago has not died
the death that generally befalls similar
movements, hut that it is being vigorously
pushed, resulting, we believe, in
a direction that must hear fruit. The
committee composed of tive gentlemen
from each of the four magisterial districts
of the county, held a special
meeting at the eourt house last Monday.
at which a resolution was passed
calling upon the supervisors of the
county to appropriate from the road
levy a sufficient suui Jo employ a competent
engineer and necessary assistants
to make a general survey of the
different and respective ro; ds in the
county; to make a diagram of the
same, tbeir grades ami curvatures, and
to suggest any changes deemed desirable
or necessary in the location of tJie
respective roads, and to furnish diagrams
of such proposed changes; to
recommend a necessary width for all
of the said roads.
There is 110 doubting the fact that
this is the proper Initiative. When the
roads of Roanoke are platted by a competent
engineer there will be shown
a condition that, for crookedness, narrowness.
and unusual grades, would
put to shame a less civilized country.?

request for exemption was granted
forthwith.

' I -wish to give my testimony to j
the efficiency of the Cuticura Reme- '
dies in what seems to me two some- i
what remarkable cases. I had a
number of skin tumours ? small |
ones ? on my arms which had never
given me serious trouble ; but about [
two 3-ears ago one came on my i
throat. At first it was only about ak j
large as a pinhead, but. as it was in |
a position where my collar, if not i
just right, would irritate it. it soon s
became very sensitive and began to
grow rapidly. Last spring it was
as large, if not larger, than a beau.
A little unusual irritation of my
collar started it to swelling, and in
a day or two it was as large as
half an orange. I was very much
alarmed, and was at a loss to de- ;
termine-whether it was a carbuncle ,
or a malignant tumor.

' About Ave or si* j*ears ago my
sister had u similar experience. Shehad
two large lumps come under'
her right arm. the result of a sprain.
They grew rapidly, and our physician
wanted to cut them out. I
would not listen to it. and she triedthe
Cuticura Remedies (as I did aa
few months ago) with magical effect.In
six weeks' time the lumps had
entirely disappeared,end have never
returned.
' I Lave great faith in the Cuticirr?
Remedies, and I believe they might
DC Ji? cuicaciuua iu .Mjuuar cases
vrith other people, and thus gave
much suffering', and perhaps life. I
have derived so muon bencllt from
the use of them myself that I am
constantly advising
