When the Lord .lesns Christ shall at lat stand on' before the multitudes of the redeemer! ..f heaven and we meet Him face to face ami feel that lie was wounded 111 the head nn.l wounded in the hands nnd wounded in the feet and wounded ill the side for us, no thinks we will be over whelmed. We will sit some lime gning in silence until some lender amid the white robed choir shall lift, the halon of light and give the signal that it is time lo wake Ihe song of .jubilee, and nil heaven then will break torth into "llosanna! hosanna! Worthy is the l.anih that was slain." I calculate further the value of Ihe soul by the price that has been paid for it. In St. lYlcrxhurg there is 11 diamond I hat the (lorci nnient naid WiO.inii) fur. " ell." you say. "it must hate been verv valuable or the (.ovornniciit would not have paid tyiXVKtO for it." I want to see what the soul is worth nnd what your soul is worth by seeing what has been pain for it. I'or 'thai im mortal soul the richest blood that was ever shed, the deepest groan that was ever ut tered, all the grids of earth compressed into one tear, nil the sulKrings ol earth galhered into one rapier ot pain and Muck through His holy heart. Docs it not im ply tremendous value? I argue, also. Ihe value of Ihe soul from the home that has been lit led up for it in the future. One would have thought that a btreet of ndninuiit would have done. No, it. is a street of gold. One would have thought that n wall of grnnile would have done. No, it is tV" llame of sar donyx, mingling with the green of emer ald. One would have thought that an occa sional doxolugy would have done. No. it is a perpetual song. If the ages of heaven marched in a straight line, some day the last regiment might pass out of sight, ltut no, the ages of heaven do not mnich in a straight line, but in a circle around nbout the throne of tiod. forever, forever, tramp, tramp! A soul so bought, so equipped, so provided for must be a price less soul, a majestic soul, 11 tremendous soul. . If n man sell a bill of goods worth ."i000. nud he is cheated out of il, he may get 1."hH)() somewhere else, but a man who in vests his soul invests all. Sating that, hi; saves all. Jn the light of my text, it seems to me ns if you were olfei ing your soul to the highest bidder, nnd 1 hear vou uny, "What is bid for it, my deathless spirit? What is bid for it?" Satan says, "I will bid the World." You suy. "lirgoiie, that is no equivalent! Sell my soul for the world? No! ltcgone!" Well, there nre a great many people who say, "I will not kvII my soul lor the world. 1 liud the world is an iiusat islying por tion." What, then, tvili you do with your soul? Some one whispers here, "1 will gite my soul to l hrisl.'' Will you? That is the wisest resolution you ever made. t'ill you give it to Christ? When? To morrow? Xo, now. I congr.ital.ite you it you nave come lo such 11 decision. Oh, if the eternal Spirit of t,od would now come down upon yirt nnd snow you the vanity of this world and the iinnii'iiM! importance of Christ'; religion ami the in finite value of your own iiiiutorta) souls, what 1111 hour this would be! What a moment this would be! Do you know that I hrist has bought your soul? Do you know that Ho has paid an inlliiitc price for it? J)o yon know that tie is worthy of it? Will you give it to Hon now? 1 was rending lately of a sailor who hail just got ashore and was telling about his lust e.vperience at sea. lie said: "The last time 1 crossed the ocean we had a tcrrilie time. After we hail been out three or four days the machinery got disarranged, and the steuni began to escape, and the cap tain, gathering the people and the crew on deck, naid, 't'utcss some one will go down and shut oil that steam nud nrrango that machinery ut the peril of his life we muot all be destroyed.' He wan not will ing to go down himself. No one seemed willing to go. The passengers gathered ut one end ot the steamer wailing for their fate. The captain said: "1 give you a last wn riling. It there is no one here willing to imperil his lile and go down nud tix that machinery we must all he lost.' A plain sailor mid, 'I'll go, sir,' and he wrapped himself in a coarse piece of can v, is and went down and was gone but a few moments when the escaping steam stopped. The captain cried out lo the jmsHcngera: 'All saved! Let us go down below nnd see what has become of the poor fellow. ' They win down. There he Iny dead." Vicarious Mtlleriug! Hied for nil! Oli, d 1 you suppose that those people 011 the ship ever forgot, ever can forget, that poor fellow? "So." they say. "Jt was through his saerilice t lint I got ashore." The time came when our whole lace must die unless some one should en dure, torture and sorrow ami shame. Who shall eomo to the rescue? Shall it be onu of the seraphim? Sol one. Shall it bo one of the cherubim? Not one. Shall il be an inhabitant of some pure and uufall en worid? Not one. Tlieu Christ suid, "Lo, 1 come to do Thy will. O tjod!" anil lie went down the dark stairs of our sin nnd wretchedness nnd misery and woe, nnd He stopped the peril, and He died that you and I might he free.. Oh. the Jove; oh, the endurance; oh, the horrors of the sacrifice! Shall not our souls go out toward Him, saying: "Lord .lesus Christ take inv soul. Thou nre worthy to have it. Thou hast died to save il." Ood help you rightly to cipher out this sum in 'gospel aril Itiuetie: "What shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world uud lose his own soul?"

It is true, drink ing and over-eating overloads the stomach, but failure to assist nature in regularly dis posing of the partially digested lumps of food that are dumped into the bowels and allowed to rot there, is what causes all the trouble. CASCARETS will help nature help you, and will keep the system from filling with poisons, will clean out the sores that .tell of the sys tem's rottenness. Bloated by bile the figure becomes unshapely, the breath foul, eyes and skin yellow; in fact the whole body kind of fills up with filth. Every time you neglect to help nature you lay the foundation for just such troubles. CASCARETS will , , poisons out of the system and will regulate you naturally and easily and without rlpe or pain.
