to have a part in. I was reading the
other day the history of the forma
tion of the London Missionary Socie
ty. I ran up against something I
was surprised to see. It was that
Rowland Hill, the founder of this
Church, was the founder of the Lon
don Missionary Society. We say
“Thank Cod’”—but listen, has it ever
occurred to you that that fact in it
self brings this Church under the most
tremendous obligation in all the world.
I submit to you that the formation of
the London Missionary Society, with
the one thing in view, the evangeliza
tion of a lost world, was more in keep
ing with the idea of a Christian than
even the foundation of this local
Church, great as this was in the pur
pose of God. What a responsibility
it puts upon this Church to be a For
eign Missionary Church. Every one
of us saved this morning is brought
under obligation to somebody that has
preceded us to the beyond, who is
looking down, saying, “Oh, be faith
ful that piece of work which I start
ed. I do not care how you do it,
but be faithful to that bit of work
which I started to help bring on the
Kingdom.” I hear them talking like
that to me this morning all over heav
en, for I am under obligation to so
many people and they have gone and
God, in His providence has let me stay
here.
We owe it to those who are going to
follow us.—There is no such thing af
ter all as a man dying. Science tells
us that all sounds we hear the rat
tling of wheels, the blowing of horns,
the crying of children, the shrieking
of whistles, the shouting of soldiers,
everything that makes sound is gath
ered up and wafted on, and out, by
those invisible currents that they may
ramify the atmosphere, and that fi
nally they are gathered up in nature’s
great conservatory of sound,. and
blended into one glorious harmony. I
sometimes fancy the orchestra of
heaven will be made up of the con
flicting noises of earth, blended to-
SAGE AND SNLPHUR
DARKENS GRAY HAIR
Brush This Through Faded. Lifeless
Locks and They Become Dark
Glossy, Youthful.
Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifelsss, is caused by a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made up
a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to
keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
daik shade of hair which is so at
tractive, use only this oldtime re
cipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
a 50 cent bottle of “Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy,” which dark
ens the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. Besides, it takes off
■dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall
ing hair. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, tak'ng one small
atrand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears; but what de
lights the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage
and Sulphur is that, besides beauti
fully darkening the hair after a few
appTcations, it also brings back the
gloss and lustre and gives it an ap
pearance of abundance.

gether. So life, and all the days of
our life, goes on and on, every little
tit giving a little further shove.
Now. what about our work? We
are handing down to somebody a job,
and they have got to tackle it, and
it behooves us as honest, conscienti
ous, Christian men and women to be
so perfect in our work, that when
they come to follow after us there
will not be anything needed in the
way of a change, save to adjust it
to the times in which they live.
I am thinking this morning of a
man yonder in America. One of our
best preachers. He was a lawyer

happened to pick up a volume of
Spurgeon’s sermons, and that led to

stops itching scalp.
Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of a neglected
scalp; of dandruff —that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair
of its lustre, its strength and its very
life; eventually producing a feverish
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die —then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderine
tonight—now—any time —will surely
save your hair.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton’s

surely can have beautiful hair and lots
of it if you will just try a little Dan
derine. Save your hair! Try it!
