Certainly with the church rising up to its full duty, no Chris will be filing to bring less than three souls into the kingdom of God. I hope and pray Almighty God that I may bring more than three. I know evangelists who have already brought 50,000 each for the kingdom of God. There are 200.000 peo pie whose one and only and absorbing busi ness in the world is to save souls. Whan you take these things into consideration, and that the Christians will have to average the the bringing kingdom of only three souls each into ot our Lord, all impossibility vanishes from this omnipotent ernsade. Why, I know a Sabbath-school teacher who for many years has been engaged in train ing the young, and she has had five differ ent classes, and they averaged seven to a class, times and they were thlrtv-flve all converted, and live calculate. seven are as near .03 I con So that she brought her three Into the kingdom of God and had thirty-two to spare.

It is proved be¬ yond controversy, by German regions and American the scientists, that the arctic were first portions of this world inhabitable; the world hot beyond human endurance, those regions were, of course, the first to be oool enough for human foot and human lung. It was positively proved that the arotio region was a tropical olimate.

It is the Divine Warrior, the Ooramandendn-Ohlef of the Centuries, the Champion of Ages, the Universal Conqueror, the Son of His God, Jesus. You will take the spoils from friendship, hand or sever take them at all. Have His and you may defy all'time and all eternity, but without it you are a pauper; though you had a universe at your command. We are told in Revelation that Jacob's twelve sons were so honored as to have the twelve gates ot heaven named after them—over one gate of heaven Napbtali, over another gate of heaven Issaohar, over another Zebnlon. Dan, over another Gad, over another Christ's over another Judah, and so on. But name is written over all the gates and on every panel of the gates, and have Hts help, His pardon. His intercession, His atonement. I must or be a forlorn wretch and forever. all who My Lord and my God, make me, bear me this day. and all to whom these words shall come, Tby repentant, ransomed believing, sworn, consecrated and followers forever. What a day wonld'rise it will Its be! This if entire assemblage to feet you oould realize It, the day In which Christ shall, In fulfillment of my text, divide the spoil. It was a great day when Queen Victoria, in the midst of the Crimean War, distributed medals to the soldiers who had eome home siok and wounded. At the Horseguards. in presence of the Boyal family, the Injt ured men were carried in or came on erutoh es— Colonel Trowbridge, who Sayer, lost who both had foot the at Inkermann, of and Captain leg off Alma, ankle joint his right shot at and Captain Carre, his disabled limb sup¬ ported by a soldier, aud others maimed and disfigured and exhausted—and with her own hand me Queen gave each the Crimean medal. And what triumphant days for those soldiers when, farther on, they received tbe French medal, with the imperial eagle, and the Tnrklsh medal, with Its repre¬ sentation of four flags—Franoe, Turkey, England and Sardinia—and beneath it a map wheel. of tho And Crimea what spread rewards over a gun are suggested to all readers of history by mere mention of the Waterloo medal, and the Cape modal, and the Gold Cross medal, and the medals struck for bravery in our American ware! But how Insignificant all these compared with the day when the good soldiers of Jesus Christ shall eome In out of the battles of this world, aud in the presence of all the plied up galleries of the redeemed and the unfallen. Jesus. ou»King, shall di¬ vide the spoil! The more wounds the greater the inheritance. The longer the forced march the brighter the trophy. glorious The more terrible the exhaustion tbe more the transport. Not the gift ot a brilliant ribbon, or a medal 'dt brass, or silver or gold, forever but a kingdom iiMvhlch we are to reign and ever. Mansions on the eternal hills. Dominions ot unfading power. Empires everlasting of unending love. Continents ot light. Atiaatio and Pacific Oceans of billow¬ ing joy. It was a great day when Aurelian, the Roman emperor, came baok from his vic¬ tories. Iu the front of the procession were wild beasts from all lands, sixteen loads hundred gladiators and richly dad, presented wagon by conquered of crowns trophies the oapttves Syrians, Egyp¬ cities. Among tians. Goths, Vandals. Samaritans, Franks, and Zanobla, the beautiful captive queen, on foot in ohains ot gold that a slave had to help her carry and jewels under the weight, of which she almost fainted. And then came the chariot of Aurelian drawn by four ele puants In gorgeous caparison, and followed by the Roman senate and the Roman army, and from passing. dawn Rome Jill day in the all procession her his¬ was tory never saw anything muoh more greater mag¬ the nificent.

The Great Strain on n Man's Nerves Safi, dent tn Itself to Wreck Him in a Short Time—The Experience of • Well-Known Motormnn. From the Cincinnati, Ohio, 1Vnt/uirer. The life of a motormnn is not a bed of roses. He is subjected to many hardships, es¬ pecially in the winter, when ha is exposed to the cold and snow. Even in the summer he must bear the intense heat which beats down upon him. Considerable nerve and self possession are necessary In a good motorman, for the lives and limbs of his passengers are at stake One of the b#st known electric motormen In this city is William Frazer, who is at present running a ear on the Cumminsvtlle electric Hne. He is not only well known to his fel¬ low employes bnt to the people who travel on his car. Mr. Frazer ia a young man about twonty-six years of age and resides with his wife and child at 144 Betts Street, Cincinnati, O. About a year ago Mr. Frazer was taken with serious stomach troubles. He bought several kinds of medicine which were rec¬ ommended to him, but none ot them seemed to give him even temporary benefit An en¬ thusiastic admirer of that famous for remedy known as Dr. Williams’ Pink Pill Pa'e People told him to try them. Frazer was almost discouraged, but took the advice. To a reporter “I of the Enquirer recommend he said: Dr. Will¬ oan most heartily all that Is iams’ Pink Pills. They fact are they advertise claimed for them; in medloine themselves better than any I ever saw. I was seized some time ago with a bad attack of indigestion. My stomach hurt me nearly all the time and I could not digest my food. The pain was almost unbearable and I found nothing that would give me relief. I confess tbnt when I bought the first box ot Pink Pills I hadn’t much confidence in their efficacy because I had tried so many things without success that I was almost dlsoour aged. Before I had taken one box I was de¬ cidedly better. Two boxes cured mo entire¬ ly. While I have been under the weather from other oanses my indigestion has never returned. If it ever shouldj know Just what to do. I have so much confidence in the oT floaoy of Pink with Pilis that disoj-der it I I shall ever get sick again any use of thmn. It Is a pleasure for me I you to testify Pills. to the excellent only qualities of these Pink They not tone stomach but regulate the bowels and as a mild cathartic.” Mr. Frazer’s testimonial means something. He speaks doubts from personal received experience the and benefits one who that ha stated can easily verify the assertion by ing on Mr. Frazer or seeing him some while he Is on hla car.

' Tabules in the Louisville Courier Journal, and believing it was the remedy I needed, I determined to j get some of the Tabnles. There wag no name attached to the advertise¬ ment, so I wrote to the publishers of - the Courier-Journal and Fas referred to the Rlpano Chemical Co., ! 10 Spruoe st., New York, from whom I obtained a box for 50 cents. I had been greatly troubled wltb slok headache, but since I secured Ulpaua Tabules, whenever I begin to feel symptoms of slek headache or sour stomach, I take one or two Tabnles , ' and escape all the terrors of a • ', splitting hood ache. Ono taken after aldod digestion and ’ eating has my mado me feel like a different person, I find I now oan get the Tabules from a local druggist. (Signed).
