whero the harpoons went down,
There is where tlio lino of battle ships

oh, how much more solemn if we had an eye

Christ came down in their awful eatns
troplie.puttitig out for their souls, "spreading
forth His hands as a swimmer Kpivudctii
forth his hands to swim;" but they thrust
Him iu tho sure heart, and they smote His
fuir check, and tho storm and darkness
swallowed them up. I nsk you to lay hold
of this Christ ami lay hold of Him
now. You will sink
Him. From horizon to horizon not
0110 sail In sight. Only one Htroug swiminor,
with head Hung back and arms outspread. I
hear a great many in the audience saying:
"Well. I would like to be a ChristaSiu. "I ni
going to work to become a Christian." My
brother, you begin wrong. When a man u
drowning, and a strong swimmer comes out
to help hiui, he says to him: "Now be quiet,
l'ut your arm on my arm or on my shnuldur,
but don't struggle, don't try to help your
self, and I'll take you ashore. The more you
struggle aud the more you try to help your
self, the more you impede 1110. Now be
quiet and I'll tuko you ashore." When
Christ, the strong swimmer, comes out to
save a soul, the sinner says: "Tliut's right.
I am glad to see Christ, and I am going tn
belli linn in the work of my redouuitlini.
I am going to pray more and that will iieip
Him; ami I am going to weop extravagantly
iver uiy siuj ami tuut wiu uip uuu." Qi '.
my brother, It will not. Stop your dols,
Christ will do all or none. ou cannot lot
nn on nee, you cannot move nn inch, in thu
matter of your redemption.
This is the dimVnlty which keeps til nisnnoa
of souls nut of the kingdom of heaven. It is
became they cannot consent to let Jesus
Christ begin and complete the work of their
redemption. "Why," you soy, "then is
there nothing for me to do"" Only 0110
thins have yon to do and that ' is to
lay hold of Christ, and let llim achieve
your salvation nnd aeldevo it all. I
do not know w hpfher I make the matter plain
or not. 1 simply want to show you that a
man cannot save himself, but that tho Al
mighty Son of Uodcnn do it, and w ill do it. if
you nsk Him. O, fling your two arms, tho
arms of your tru.it and love, around this
omnipotent swimmer of the crohs.
That is a thrilling time when sonio 0110

Washington says: A feature of army lifo
that Is attracting some nttention out-ide of
tlio ranks, nnd which has the approval of tho
War llepnrtmcnt, is what is known as the
"Canteen." it is best known in the Kngiisn
army, nnd has for its object tlu providing
lor soldiers nf fmsl, drink nnd amusement.

the past fow years the business of tliep.st
Irmler was prolltablo, but with the growth
of new towns nenr the posts his business fell
off, until now his r.'Veiiue is derived Inrgely
Irom his liiviiMi to sell beer mid wine. Iu
limnyrases It Is said that tho post traders
nbiise the privileges thus grantoil mid dis
ponso to the soldiers a poor ouality ot w hisky
und briindy. Tho traders' il-aliniis aro thus
often prejudieal to goinl order mid disciplino
nt tho post. It is this fact, proluil.lv inuro
than nuy oiler, that has led to the adoption
of the canteen system. The cauteu is con- 1
t ruled by a voluntary association of the sol- '
diers. The supplies are purchased and sold
ns by tho post traders, but no spirituous
liipiors are sold, an I no lienors of unv kind 1
to uitoxieate l iMTsoiis. Hy this nivalis tho
sol. Hers themselves lend their aid to thnoill.

to which the oiliis'is, look for the Is-st result!
