^HHHHEGULAR SUNDAY SERMON ^^^^^Fowerful Appeal For the Higher an: ^HHKetter Life We All Should Lead. Brooklyn, X. Y.?In Memorial Presbyterian Cliureh Sunday morning the pastor, the Itev. T. Calvin McClelland, Ph.D., preached on "What Is Christianity?" The text was from Acts xix: 23: "And the same time there occurred no small stir about that wav." Dr. McClelland said: The name Christianity is not in the Bible. Before the religion of Jesus was molded into a creed or organized into a church it was called simply the Way. That was the name given it by * its frieuds and its foes. After Jesus died the young men who had been His students were asked and they asked themselves ? what had Jesus given them? He had given them wonderful words, but lie had done something more than set them to learning precepts to be repeated parrot-like. He had formed them into a circle, but the gift He had left thei# was not a society. He had given them?not something to believe j nor something to join, not a creed nor /a CDurcD. nut just a way 01 living. And so they called Christianity the Way. In a little book called the Acts of the Apostles we have pen pictures of > the lives of these first Christians, and these pictures show a likeness in their Way of living, and tuat Way they had is marked by four characteristics: First. The first Christians lived as servants of .lesus. Second. Those first Christians lived by the strength of Cod. Third. Those first Christians lived t in devotion to the common duties. Fourth. Those first Christians livWi with men as brothers. Let us study these four points. The first Christians had a way of living as servants of .lesus. That is. they took Jesus' word as law. They called themselves His "slaves;" their favorite name for Jesus was "Lord;" that means simply, master, director, chief. It was their passion for Jesus which won for tlieni their first nickname. The heathen called them "Christians." that is, the party controlled by Christ. This was not the name they gave themselves. Their common name for themselves was "The Brothers." But more than their love for one another, their subjection to Christ impressed their pagan neighbors, and so they came to be called Christians. Why did they call Jesus? They had no theology of His person. You hunt the Acts of the Apostles from begin ? ning to end without finding any speculation about the second person of the Trinity, or the deity of Jesus. These speculations came years after. At first Jesus was an absolute Master, ami He was a Master, because though He had been crucified. He had risen from the dead. Jesus had passed through death into life; they had not expected it. and in their Exuberance over it what was there to do but to make themselves slaves of the man who had given them this brand new reality? "He delivered them. who. through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage." And so they made that empty grave a throne and the risen Lord sat upon it So the first characteristic of the Christian way was?it lived in subjection to Jesus. The second characteristic of the first Christians' way 0f living was. they be1* lieved they lived by the strength of God. They talked about themselves as being possessed of the spirit of God. the soul of God. The Holy Spirit, the Holy Soul, spake through their lips, moved in their hands, dwelt in their hearts. This was a remarkable consciousness. this consciousness of God a9 being concerned in every detail of being and doing. The birth of this consciousness. the descent of this Holy 0^..? U in /xnonlnrv rxf ouui, 19 |/uivcu 1u lur v[/cutiin u&. hiv story as the most memorable tiling about the way. Every individual, even the common people, who took Jesus ^ for their Lord, felt that their life and jjod'^ were all of one piece. The working of "TBis soul of God. this Holy Spirit "was felt everywhere and in everything. By His power they preached, taught, healed and ordered their outward and inward life. Everything the first Christians said or did was said or done by the strength of the Father-God. The third characteristic of the first Christians' way of living was. they laid emphasis on the common duties. The immediate followers of Christ believed that their first business was to do their duty. "The fruit of the Spirit," they said, that is, the immediate result of this subjection to Christ and this union with the soul of God, "is love, joy. peace. long suffering, gentleness. goodness, faith, meekness, selfcontrol." The lives thut they lived ill subjection to Jesus and by the strength of God they lived in the midst of men. Now this characteristic of the first Christians' way of living is all the more remarkable when you remember that these men were for the most part Jews. They had been brought up to believe that religion was summed uj.i in exact observance of ecclesiastical lorms. A Jl'H > It'llgiuu tviui.^iru the offering of certain prayers in a certain way, at certain times of the day, of various washings of the hands, ol prescribed visits to the temple, with prescribed gifts for each visit. To perform these and a thousand other ceremonies was to be religious, and the performance of these things took pre cedeuce of all else. For instance, il was granted by the Jews that it was a duty to honor father and mother, but since the commandment requiring thi was the fifth, it ranked not so high as the first, which required of man thai he should sacrifice to God. Therefore if oue had only enough to buy the pro per sacrifice for God, he was war ranted in letting the parent starve auc to gain the temple offering. Now il was men brought up on this idea of re ligion who suddenly turned the tables and laid the emphasis on common duty It were better to be charitable than t< have the gift of prophecy, aye. bettei Mr than to have a faith that could TeiiK>v< Wr mountains. When the feeling of the lordship o Jesus and the union with God's Spiri got on the nerves of the new convert! and let them into extravagant other * worldliness; word came front a grea leader warning tliem that pure rcligioi and undefined was summed up in vis i iting the fatherless and widows and ii * ?j- i rr?t.? keeping themselves nnspoueu. iui: new way was one of lift', of the eterna kind of life, but it was living the etcr nal kind of life in the midst of time living it in subjection to Jesus by tin strength of God. t The fourth characteristic of the firs Christians' way of living was. the: treated men as brothers. This was tin one thing which, next to their cheerfu servitude of Christ, most imnresset the heathen world. "Behold," said tin pagan, "how these Christians love on< another." From the very first the: walked in the love way. They did no look upon other men as mere tools foi selfish gratification, as mere means foi , one's pwn ends; they worked for others n-jfu. ; i interests. they found joy in their sue? cesses ami pain in their reverses. The Christians' first mime for themselves was "The Brothers." And so [ full of this idea of brotherhood were tiny that, first off. they went daft over . it and thought it involved communism. Kacli man sold lus possessions and pooled the proceeds and let die apostles distribute the fund as each brother had need. "Not one of them said thai , aught lie possessed was his own. but they had all things in common." It did not take them long to find out that brotherhood involves no senseless levcli itig down of everything and everybody, j that it involves elder and younger. stronger and weaker. larger and ; smaller. But. though they had abandoned this experiment, they conserved the fundamental principle of mutual service and brotherly anion. They i lived a way which had as its motto. I "Bear ye one another's burdens." : Christianity meant walking in the "Road of the Loving II -art." These, then, were the eharncteristics of the Christian way as the tirst Christians understood it?it was a life of subjection 10 Jesus, a life lived by the strength of God. a life of devotion to duty, a life of love to brother man. And this is Christianity, and it can be nothing else?living your daily life at the call of duty in allegiance to the Lordship of Jesus, with a personal consciousness of God as a Father and fellow man as brother. A day came to Christianity when it meant more than this. The day of inquiry earn?, when Christianity was brought into conflict with other eults, and then Christianity got itself a creed. The day of systematic . vangelization came, when Christianity had lost her tirst leaders and had to make new ones out of the ravr materia! found among the new converts, and then Christianity got itself energy and organized itself into the church. But tirst and fundamentally was what its Founder left it. whof n??fh4in/lni?o moilo u way of living the daily life in allegiance to the Lordship of tue risen Christ, with a personal consciousness of (lod . as a Fat a or and one's fellows as ' brothers. And this is the first and fundamental way in which Christianity must lie presented to and unbraced by every real life, if it is to )e a teal and vital religion. It must be, first of all, just a way of living the daily life. A man begins to have it and conI tiuues to be a possessor of it when, in j his home, in the street ear. in the hotel ; and shop and legislative chamber lie makes himself the subject of Jesus aiul feels himself to be tlie son of (lod and the brother of every last fellow mortal who has a claim on what (lod has given him of health, wealth, education, friendship and spiritual life. To every man who lives in this way there may eonie a creed. There comes a time to every man when he inquires j 01 the solemn face of life, and (lod ; and Christ what they are. And the answer which comes to his own inmost soul through his personal experience will be this man's creed. And to every I earnest soul who lives in the wav there i will com? a cburcli. As he seeks the conditions of his own best way of living, as ho reaches out to help his brothers in their pilgrimage, he will discover that there is power in association. a dynamic in organized fellowship anil thus ho will rejoice in the glorious company ami will enter Into operative fellowship with all who own the risen Lord. But with all the erord and in all the cdiumunity with other believers, religion will still be this and this onlyliving one's daily life of common duty with Jesus as a Master, with (?od as a Father and with men as brothers. Tho creed and the church will \?o the outward expression aiul tools of the thing, but hot the thing itself. The man who lives in the way will see how a man may be able to give assent to the creeds of Christendom and yet be out of tlie way. He will realize that a man may be baptized into the faith of Rome, | or confirmed in the Episcopal denom! ination. or received into the Presby I teriau church, and yet be forewnudeml | from Christ. And he will discover how. though a man be unable to subscribe to any formula of faith, and J though he be disallowed the privileges i oT church membership, if he followed in the way. if he live his daily life with Jesus as a Master. God as his Father and men as his brethren, he is still a friend of the risen Lord. What is a Christian? A man who doth the same things as other good men. but with a different motive, a different method, a different aim. The motive is devotement to Christ. The method is by the strength of the im! manent God. The aim is for the love ! of brother matt. For the Quiet Boor. t "If any man say that he .us no sin. lie deceiveth himself and the truth is not in him.*' i Attachment to Christ is the only se' : cret of detachment from the world.? i A. J.

Charles E. Tefft. the 5 N'ew York sculptor, was the lucky fishi ?rman. * He had whipped the rapids l.elow i Bangor dam all the afternoon and had x i begun to think he had wasted his 5 ! time, when, just at dusk, there came 1 1 a sudden flash, a vicious strike and - he had a big salmon fast. Being inex ! perieneed in salmon fishing. Mr. Tefft : had neither gaff nor net, and there i was no shoal water near. He had in . the boat a small target rifle, and. after playing the big fisb for ten min1 utes he succeeded in holding the rod 1 in one hand and pointing the rifle with 2 the other. Although the boat was ? tossing about in the rough water, fe '* hilled the salmon with the first shw. r the bullet passing through its head. r The salmon weighed twenty-two , pounds.?New York Sun.

In line with the elastic ease of the ( oyster shippers, cited by President Hedley of Yale University in liis book on Railroad Transportation, is the case of i the Aroostook potato growers brought by President Tuttle of the ^ Boston & Maine Railroad before the ^ Senate Committee on Interstate Commerce. Nothing could better show how ^ a railroad works for the interest of * the localities which it serves. A twain dependence of tlie farmers of the Aroostook region is the potato crop, aggregating annually eight to c ten million bushels which find a market largely in Boston and the adjacent thickly settled regions of New England. The competition of cheap water ^ transportation from Maine to all points ^ along the New England coast keeps a railroad freight rates 011 these potu- jr toes always at a very low level. n Potatoes are also a considerable out- n - % J- -i* ? ci j put oi tuo iruoK iarms 01 .mcuigiiu, *>. thoir normal market being obtained in ai and through Detroit and Chicago aud " other communities of that region. Not many years ago favoring sun and rains brought a tremendous yield of m potatoes from the Michigan tields. At pj normal rates and prices there would have boon a glut of the customary markets ami the potatoes would have rotted on the farms. To help the potato le growers the railroads from Michigan M n made uiiprccodentedly low rates on potatoes to every reachable market. t.| even carrying them in large inantiiics to a place so remote as Boston. The Aroostook growers had to reduce the price on their polalooa ami even then could not dispose of them unless the Boston ie Maine 11aiToad reduced its ^ already lor rate, which it did. By a means of these low rates, making possible I-j v.* prices, the potato crops of both Michigan and Maine w re finally marketed. Everybody tats potatoes, k and ti::;t year everybody had ali the potato: s l:e wanted. While the Michigan railroads math' P rales that would have been ruinous to E the railroads, had they heen applied to m the movement of all potatoes at al. j| times. to :< 11 places, tliey helped their I | I patrons to linti markets for them. The ' Boston & Maine Railroad sutiered a dccrease iti its revenue front potatoes, hut it enabled the Aroostook farmers ' to market their crop and thereby to obtain money which they spent for the varied supplies which the rail- L roads brought to them. If the making of rates were subject to Governmental adjustment such radical and prompt w action could never have been taken, P because it is well established that if a ^ rate be once reduced by a railroad P ' company it cannot bo restored through t' j the rod tape of Governmental pro red- tJ I tire. If the Michigan railroads and the ? Boston & Maine Railroad had been n subjected to Governmental limitation a they would have felt obliged to keep d up their rates as do the railroads of t France and England and Germany under Governmental limitation and let P the aotatoes rot.?Exchange. ? P Profits of the Packers. There has been a great t.eal of disppointinent because the Garfield relort shows that the profits of the packng industry only amount to about two tor cent, on the volume of business ransacted. There is 110 doubt, howver. that the report is correct. The census reports compiled by the Jovernment in 1000. before the agitaion regarding the "beef trust" began, brow considerable light on this quesion. It appears from the census that he packing industry is conducted on a mailer margin of gross profit than any ither industry in America. The gross nargin of profit of S71 flour and grist nills in Illinois, in the census year, vas nearly seven per cent, on the voluue of business. The gross margin of ifty-one wholesale slaughtering and neat nackintr establishments in Illinois vas only about one-third as large, or a ittle more than two per cent, on the oluuie of business. The millers have not been accused if lieing in a "trust." and coiubinaions would seem impossible in a busiless where there are several thousand nills in the United States competing ictively for the flour trade, but it aplears that the gross profits of the tuillrs are larger than the gross profits of he packers. It may turn out that the igitation regarding the packing Indusry v/ill show the same result as the [evil found In shearing the pig: '^.11 queal and no wool." A nice thing about marrying money everybody envies you so much more tan you do yourself. Why ? Why, when buying a book, are we inuenced by the author's name? Why by n artist's it we purchase a picture^ Why do wise buyers insist upon paving / reliable name on nearly everythin^they urchase? It is because the name attached is the afeguard of the buyer ? a protection 1 gainst the palming otf of inferior articles, i This "name guarantee" we all look tor in V he most important things we buy, and r riiat can be more important than our t ood ? Everybody knows that all intelligent ousekeepeis are very particular about the uying of things to eat and drink, and noody realizes it more than the up-to-date rocer, who caters to the wants ot his cusomers. For instance, every real grocer knows he reason for the universal popularity of .iox C'oiFKK. the leader of all package oftees. He knows that its uuiform purity nd high quality have made it welcome in lillions of American homes for over a uartcr of a century. .Realizing this he cannot but hand it out heerfully when asked for it. He knows hat the people accept the package as a uarantee of the contents. Vet there may be a few grocers left who o not recognize that the buyer?not the slier?has the right of choice, and they lay want to sell their loose coffee (who now* what it is, or where it came from*) astead of Lion Coffee, which the cusomer asks for, and the merits of which oth know.
