tho prayer meeting has not . een so dull
as to drive out nil rxeept tf. .o eonenrn
lni whom it was foreorU tied from nl

s'i :h as a man rives when he tells nf hu
Taullne conversion how he was knoi-ked
senseless, and then had a vision and heard
vole s, and after a certain number of dnvs
of horror got up and shouted for joy. All J
nun niscouriigcs me.ior i was never Kiiocke.l i
senseless, nnd I never had Mich a sudden
burst of religious rapture that I lost mv
sxpillibrium. Hut after nwhlle a Christian
man got up in some meeting and told us how
ho wius brought up by a devout parentage,
and had always been thoughtful about re
ligious things, nu 1 gradually the peace of
the gospel pnme Into his soul like the dawn
of the morning no perceptible dilTerenee
between moment and moment but after
awhile all perturbation settled down Into a
hope thnt had consoled nn l strengthened
him during all the vicissitudes of a lifetime.
I said, "That Is exhilarating; that was my
experience." And so I was strengthened.
In another prayer meeting a tnau got up
and told us how he once hated Ood an I
went through nil theroun I of inlouit until
wn.werenllon nettles lest he should go too
much Into the particulars, but one nay he
was by some religious power hurle I flat and
then got up a Christian ami hal ever since
been going a round with a x or UiMe with
large tla s under his arm. a limiting evange
list. Well, under this story many are not
helped nt all, for they know they never bated
Ood, and they were never ilKs dote, lint ni
ter uwiille some Christian woman arises and
savs. "I have nothing extraordinary to
tell, yet I think the earcsuf life.tlie anxieties
about m children, nml two graves
opeuc 1 in our family plot tan I me feci the
Hee l of O id. mi l weak and h'dt'b'ss and
heart' Token 1 Hung myself u;ioii His un rev,
nnd I feel what the lilble calls the 'peace of
iod which piissi.fii all understanding.' and
I iial: your prayers that I may live nearer to
the Chrit who li is d ine so ' much for me.''
I declare that before that woman got through
wo were all crving, not bitter tears, ru:
tears of joyful emotion, nnd in three days in
that neighborhood all the ice ha I g .ic out
vf the rlv t jn a snriugtiuie freshet of salva
tion. "Let the redeemed of the Lord say so."
I have but little interest lu what j.eyplo
say about religion as nu ahst ration, bur I
have illl nitaUc interest In what people siy
about what they have personally felt of re
ligion. It was an expression of his own
gratitude for personal salvation which led
Charles Wesley, after a season of great do.
ttpondency about his soul mi l Christ bad
spoken pardon, to write that Immortal 1
bytnn:
Oh, for a thousand tongues to sing
My great liedeemer's praise!
It was after Abraham Lincoln lia 1 been
comforted In the loss of Til l, the bright boy
of tho White House, that hosal I, "I now see
as never before the preelousnes of God's
love In Jesus Christ nnd how we are brought
near to Ood as our Father by Him."
What a thrill went througu the meeting in
Portland, Or., when an ex-Attorney-Ueiieritl
of the Unite 1 States rose nnd wild: "Last
lilglit I got upuhd n.-ked the prayers of Uod'
people. I feel now perfeely satistled. The
burden is rolled off nud all gone, and I feel
that I could run or My into the units of Jesus
Christ."
What A record for nil tlmo and eternity
was made by (leilaenis, the play a 'tor. iu
the theatre at Hellopolis. A burlcsono of
Christluulty was put upon the stage. Iu de.
rision of tlieordinar.ee of baptism a bath
tub tilled with water' was put upon the stage,
and lino! her actor, in awful blasphemy,
dipped Oellaclus, pronoiu.ciiig over lntn the
words, "1 baptize thee in the name of the
Father, of the Hon nml of the Holy Ghost."
Hut coming forth from the burlesque bap
tism he looked changed and was change I,
and hu cried out, "I am a Christian. I will
die as a Christian." Though he was draggu I
out and stoned to death, they could not
ilrowu hu testimony mndo under such awful
ciraumstniiPi's: "i am a Christian. 1 will
die as a C'liirstinn." "Let thu redeemed of
the Lord say so."
What continuation would come if all who
bad answers to prayers would sueak o.it; if
ll merchants in tight placet because of liar 1
times would tell how lu response to supplt
catiou they got the money to pay the note;
If all farmers in time of drought would tell
how lu answer to prayer the ram came just
lu time to save the crop; If all parents wuo
prayed for a wandering sou to come home
would tell how uot long after they heard
the boy's bauu on thu latch o( the Iruut

bsmuol Hlek, au English Methodist

the next dav forty ami from that time to this,
for over thirty-eiirht years, everv day, H'ib

Let til" same outspokenness he einnloved

planned f r your levt Interests nil these
years. They may sometimes, their nervous
system us.nl up by the cares, the josses, ihc
disappointments, the worrine-nts of life, be
more irritable than they ought to be, an I
they probably have faults which have be.
pome oppressive as the years go by. Hut
those eyes, long before "they took on spec,
fades, were watching for your welfare, and
their hands, not as smooth ami much more
i" 'ply line. thnu ouch, have done for
you many n good clay's work. Life has been
totlietnmore of a struggle than you will
ever know about, and much of the struggle
has been for you, ami how much they are
wrapped up iu your welfare you will 'never
appreciate.
Have you by word or gift or behavior ex
pressed your thanks? Or If you cannot quite
get up tosay It face to face, have you written
it in some holiday salutation.' The time will
soon pass, and they will be gone out of your
sight, and their ears will not hear, ami their
eyes will not see. If you owe them any

In conjugal life the honeymoon Is .vn

of dp 'ndeucs. Inpatient words sotn-times

Tnls chapter from which I take my text
mentions several classes ot persons who
ought to be outspoken, amoug them all those
who go on a journey. What au opportunity
you have, you who spend so much of your
time on rail trains or on shipboard, whether
ou lake or river or seu! Kprea 1 tin glory of
God's goo dues and your own redemption
wherever you go. You will have many a
long ride beside some one whom you will
never see again, some one who is wailing for
one word of rescue or consolation. Make
every rail tralnand steamer a moving palace
of sa veil souls. ' Casual c nver-atlou have
harvested a great host for God.
'I here are many Christian workers In put
pits, in mission stations, sabbath schools, in
unliear I of places who are doing their best
for God and without any recognition. They
go and come, ami uo one cheers them. Per
haps all the reward they get Is harsh critic
ism, or rep llse, or their own fatigue. If you
have ever heard ol any good they have done,
let them know about it. If you tin I some
one betiellted by their alms, or their prayers,
or their cheering Word, go nu t tell them.
They may be almost ready to give up their
mission. They may be a l most in despair be
cause of the seeming lack of resists. One
word from you may le nn ordination that
will start them on the chief work of ibeir
lifetime. A Christian womau raid to her
paston "My usefulness is done, I tin uot
know why my life is spared any longer, be
cause I can do no good." Then the pastor
replied: "You do me great good every Sab.
hull)." Khensked: "How do I do you any
good?" and he replied: "Iu the llrsi place,
you are always in your seat lu the church,
and that help n,e, nnd in the secou! plu 'u
Vou are always wide awake and alert, look
ing right up into my face, and that helps me,
and lu the third place I o.'teu see :enrs run
ning down your cheeks, nml that helps nic."
What a good thing he did not wait until she
was dead before hu said so!
There are hundreds of ministers who have
