A NOVEL RACE. Sunday Discourse by Dr. Ciapman, the Noted Pastor-Evangelist. Wealth and Power Will Not Avall the Sinner on Judgment Day — Two Ways late Heaven. NEw York City.—The Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman, the popular pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian Church, whose reputation as sn evangelist is second to none, has pre pared an interesting scrmon upon the sub ject, “A Novel Race,” which is preached from the text, Proverbs 14: 12, “There 1s a way which seemeth right unto a man; but the end thereof the wavs of death.” Some time during last summer the Joseph Parker, the pastor of the Temple in Boston, was asked to take editor's chair of the London Sun He » given full | pr just what are wished in th aper or to keep out columns what in judgment { conducive to make an ideal paper.

Psalm 51: 5, “Bohoid. 1 was shapen in iniquity, and in did my mother conceive me.” This is a Bible statement, but ¢zperience proves the truth of it and history empha wizes it in every particular. However men may rebel against the doctrine of original sin, and speak of it as an injustice and all of that, nevertheless, this we know to be true that we are born with a bigs to sin, and aleo that if we were to spaak honestly we would say that from the very first it has been easier for us to do wrong than to do right. We have been in a great com: pany in this experience, for even the great apostle suid, “When I would do od vil is present with we.” 1 do net for a mo ment imagine that we ure guilty, auy of ue, of great sins, but the existence of little mins will prove the existence of a aininl nature, A famous ruby was offered for ssle to the English Government. The report of the crown jeweler was that it was the finest he had ever seen or Weard of. Fit that one of the “facets,” one of the Littl: cuttings of the face, was slightly {ractured. The result was that that almost invisiie flaw reduced its value by thousands of pounds, and it was rejected from the re galin of England.

Once more, in the story of the WB struggles of the elder Herschel. while he was working out the problem of gigantic telescopic speculs, you will find that he made scores upon scores before he got one to satisfy him. A scratch like a spider thread caused one to be rejected, although it had cost him weeks of toil. 11. The race.

There are almost ag many versions of the stork legend as there are of the original creation, but one that com bines the familiar features of that pretty fiction with cabbages is certain ly unusual, Such a version was recently told to an East Side kindergarten teacher by one of her Italian pupils. Jugt before the morning exercises began che was sitting at her desk. and the children were standing in groups about the room animatedly discuseing their various important af¥aire. when sudd-nly the teacher caught the fol lowing scrap of their conversation “But they are bern in cabbages; | tell you 1 know they are.” The spesker was a bright-eyed little Italian boy, who had for his audience a little Sicilian girl. “You don't belizve that, dc vou, teacher?” she queried. turning round “Believe what, Carlie?” was the in quiry. “Alberto, he say born in cabbages.” “Why, teacher, of course you be leve it, don't you?” inquired Alberto excitedly. The teacher was rather puzzied To say “no” was to shake the child's faith in his mother's pretty fable, so she temporized. “1 don’t really think 1 ever heard of their being,” said she—~New York Tribune that babies be Nat His Experiones “No,” said the convict, “there's some things in the prayer book I can't believe, though I'd like 10.” prison visitor, ‘We are here today and gone tomor- row.’ "” Ver Money tines Parthen New Extravagant Wife-~Now, Jack, I'm sure 1 can make money go farther than you, Distracted Husband — Great Scott!
