Because of the controversies throughout Christendom the air is now like an August afternoon about five o'clock, when it has been steaming thot all day, and clouds are gathering, and there are lions of thunder with grumbling Yoices and flashing eyes coming forth from their cloudy lairs, and people are waiting for the full burst of the tempest. I am not much of a weather prophet, but the clouds look to me mostly like wind clouds. 1t may be a big blow, but I hope it will soon be over, In regard to the Battle of the Creeds, 1 am every day a-ked about it.

You go up to that old Methodist Church, which has, through her revival, sent millions to heaven which we would otherwise have added to our popula tion: the church of Wesley and Matthew Bimpson, against which we have an especial udge, and get them so absorbed in discuss. ing whether women shall take part in her conference that they shall not have so much time to discuss how many sons and daughters she will take to glory.” What amazes me most is that all INIsNOons i turn people time all over Christendom is satanic, Many of the infernal attacks are sly and hidden and strategic and so ingemious that they are not easily discovered. Bat here is a bold and uncovered attempt of the powers of darkness to split up the churches, to ministers to take each other by the throat, to make religion a laughing stock of earth and hell, to leave the Bible with no more t or authenticity than an old almanac of 1822, which told what would be the change of weather six months ahead and in what quarter of the month it is best to plant turnips. In a word, the effort is to stop the evangelization of the world, It seems to me very much like this: There has been a railroad accident and many are wounded and dying. There are sevurd) drug stores near the scene of casualty. Al the doctors and d ta are needed and needed right away. ndages, stimulants, anmsth bh Seti of fast.

I say there were too many drops of landanum in it, and this other man says there ware too many drops of camphire, we must get this ques. tiou settled before we can attend to the rail- road accident.” And one doctor takes another doctor the collar and pistes him back against the sufferers hy tha accident, and in that drawer, easily ovened, are bandages and solints for the lack of which fifty people are dying outside the drug store, Befors | cation.

Save the bottles by all means, if you cannot save any- thing else, Now, what part shall vou ani I take in this controversy which fills all Christendom with clangor? My advice is, take no part. In time of riot all mayors of cities advise good citizens to stay at home or in thelr places of businass, and in this tims of relig- ious riot I advise you to go about your regu- iar work for God, Leavas the bottles on the higher shelves for others to fight about, and take the two bottles on the shelf within easy reach, the two bottles which are all this dying world needs; the one filled with » potion which is for the cleansing of all sin, the other filled with a potion which is for the sosching of all suffering.

On that quilt many a wounded man had lain and suffered died. But one morning the h tal nurse saw a patient under the blanket kissing the figure of aleaf in the quilt, and the nurse su he was only wandering in his mind. But no; he was the son of the mother who had made the quilt and he recognized that figure of a leaf as of a gown his mother used to wear, and it reminded him of home. “Do you know where this quilt came from?’ he asked.
