LACK OF LIFE IN

Notes of General Interest.
Kov. K. .!. .Morris, of Wllkes-iJurrc,
occupied the pulpit or tho Plymouth
Congregational church lit both services
yesterday, and preuchcd two excellent
sermons. In the evening he spoke from
the text found In the second chapter of
the acts of. the apostles, unci the forty
seventh virHO.
'The speaker contrasted the difference
between the church of Christ's time
and chinch of today and noted the
progress, hopefulness and growth of
i elision In those days anil the lack of
lire and Interest In Christ's work to
day. The secular pursuits of modern
times he yah', are a long: the line of ad
vancement and expansion, but he feared
that the church of today Ik not re
ceiving the support and encouragement
It deserves,
"Progress Is every wheie 'l.e apparent,
he said, but the church Is slumbering
at the present time. The Lord has still
the same Interest In his people and
cause, but the people have not the same
Interest In the T-ord Jesus Christ. It Is
the will of God that His word should
be pleached to all the 'world,' and His
good will Is the same today as It was
In the time of the apostles.
People now days are attracted by
anything new, and it may be argued
that the gospel was new in the time of
the apostles, but It Is the same yester
day, today and forever. It can and
should be made new to unbelievers to
day, and there are muny who have not
yet known the newness and power of
the gospel of Christ. Some may know
the texts and scriptures, but the gospel
has never really come to them in its
true light.
""It is not new to lnir about God. but
It Is new for people to live In dread and
terror of Him, for without a sense of
the reality of God you have lived with
out Him. One must be touched by the
real gospel of Christ If It is to be made
to them, for the revelation of the love

The more we take hold of the gospel
the more wo learn of It, and If wo
want to know the gospel we must
think more of It and leant more of It.
Another clement of God'ii purpose Is
the entire singleness of aim In Christian
work,
Many people ate engaged In Church
work who have no time for Purist. All
thnt Is needed Is to accept Christ and
live for Hhn. The gospel must be ac
cepted thoroughly and truthfully, It the
purpose Is nttalned. We must all bo
co-laborers with Christ, to win sinners
for Him.
Wo must make It our business to help
Christ, and our dally lives must be
saturated with the spirit of Christ, and
live In the fear of Clod. Do what you
can for Him nnd appeal to Hint for
assistance. More real living faith Is
needed In the church today to accom
plish God's purpose.

THE USES OF MILLIONAIRES.
They Are the Busy Bees That Fill
the Hive with Honey.
The bees of a hlvo do not destroy the
honey-making bees, but tho drones. It
will be a great mistake for the com
munity to shoot the millionaires, for
they are the bees that muke tho most
honey, and contribute most to the hlvo
even after they have gorged themselves
full. Hero Is a remarkable fact, that
the masses of the people in any coun
try are prosperous nnd comfortable
just In proportion as there are million
aires. Take Russia, with Its popula
tion little better than eerfs, and living
at the point of starvation upon the
meanest possible fare, such fure as
none of our people coulfl or wouia eat,
and you do not find one millionaire In
Russia, always excepting the emperor
and a few nobles who own the land,
owing to their political system. It is
the samo to a groat extent In Germany,
There are only two millionaires known

"Woll." said Mr. Evarts, "I do not
know about thut. My experience us a
New York lawyer is that, somehow or
