Mr. Coleman is well known in I'nion County, having resided in the county for a number of years. He is a good man and a sincere, <xtrnest and e msecrated worker. The Manning Timet?'has the fol1 wing to say of ^fr. Coleman: "We letprn that Mr. .1. I'. Coleman, y.olport' ttr yf the Manning Jiapirist ehureh, has tendered his resignation and he expects to move / away shortly.

Kphesians, v. 33: "Lot the wife 1 see that she reverence her husband." The Ib visecl Version has "fear her husband." In the Expositor's hi11** CI (1 Pinillntr linu CAlYlifc Uk\ y \J \ V V* 1 IIIMIUJ IIIIU ?v? ?X- | comments on this verse, that are | well worth reading. "The Apostle alludes to submission as the wife's duty, for she might possibly be tempted to think this superseded by the liberty of the , children of Clod. Love, he need not enjoin upon her; but he writes. "Husbands, love your wives even as Christ also loved the Church, and j gave up Himself for her. "The danger of selfishness lies on the masculine side. The man's nature is more exacting; and thesclfforgetfulness and the solicitousafTec- ' tion of the woman may blind him to his own want of the truest love. Full of business, and with a hundred cares and attractions lying outside of the domestic circle, he too readily f nans habits of s?*lf-alworption, and learns to make his wife* and home a convenience,from which he takes as his right the comfort they have to give, * imparting little of devotion and confidence in return. This lack of love denies the higher rights of marriage; it makes the wife's submission a joyless constraint. Along with this selfishness and the uneasy conscience attending it, there supervenes sometimes an irritability of temper, that chafes over domestic troubles, and makes a grievance of the most trilling mishap or inadvertence, ignoring the nntirnt. jifTrction and nnxictv " ??' - r"%* ? - , v to please. Too often, in this way, husbands grow insensibly into family tyrants, forgetting the days of youth, and the kindness of their espousals. "There are men/' says Bengcl (on this point unusually caustic), "who, out of doors, are civil and kind to all; when at home, toward their wives and children, whom they have no need to fear, they freely practice secret bitterness." The Apostle wrote his words of instruction to husbands and wives, in a Roman prison, more than eighteen hundred years ago. Bengel lived in Germany, two centuries ago. Dr. Findlay lives in England today. The dangers ..jnhich PjvuI A vvucwttct? ?r"Ties. Many a happy, appreciated wife may read the caustic words of the German preacher, and say, "My experience does not prepare me to believe this. Toe man whom 1 am expected to reverence and fear does nothing like that." Here and there a busy husband may happen to see the passage, and he will frankly and boldly feel like saving. "I do remember mv faults this day. 1 haw. too often,in my haste, spoken words that must have wounded her who would die for me. I will do so no more." Still, all husbands, even, the ten derest and most considerate, may read with prolit othov'weighty words of the Comnieirtator. He will lind ki them if standard to whieli he has not-yet fully reached. "Love your wives, even as the Christ loved the Church." What a glory this confers upon the bus* hand's part in marriage! His devotion pictures, as no other love can, the devotion of Christ to llis redeemed people. His love must therefore he a spiritual passion, the love of soul to soul, that partakes of Cod and of eternity. Of the three Creek words for love ?eros, familiar in Creek poetry and mythology, de- ( noting the tlamc of sensual passion, is not named in the New Testament; ( phila. the love of friendship, toler- | ably frequent, in its verb at least; I hut agape absorbs the forn e , ai d t anseends both. This exquisite word denotes love in its spiritual | puii'y and depth, the love of God and of Christ, and of souls to each other in Cod. This is the specific Christian affection. It is the attribute of Cod, who "loved the world, and gave His son, the "onlybegotten"?of "the Christ," who "loved tin; Church, and gave up Himself for her." Self-devotion, not self-satisfaction, is its note, * * * From verse 20 we gatlu r ti.nt ?i... i??

It might lead them to walk mo-o worthily, and to seek higher religious attainments, if they considered that the shepherding of at least one soul devolves upon themselves, that they are unworthy of the name of husband without such care for the welfare of the soul linked to their own, as Christ hears toward His hridc, "the Church."
