: , It is a great joy to know that the things
1 , that bring us the representations of heaven
are an substantial. Some people tell ns
Ihat heaven is a state, not a nlaee. What
then did Christ mean when He said, “I go
to prepare a place for von.” and what
again when He said. “In My Father’s
bouse there are many mansions?” What
i the doctrine of the resurrection? Ts it
that only the spirits of men are raised?
- This is not our teaching. There must he
some place for the resurrected body. When
Christ went out with T]is anost’es to Retb
nnv and a cloud received Him out of their
fight. He arose bodily from their presence.
It is certain, absolutely certain, that heav
en is a place.*
Perhaps some may question, at first, the
meaning of the text, and yet I am verv
sure if we only had the mind of the Spirit
wc would find in it much of beauty, sweet
ness and power.
WHAT IS HEAVEN?
It is a place of overpowering brightness.
Everything that ever came from thence
tells us so. Chariots so bright that the
only thing to which they could he likened
was fire. Angels with faces shining so that
men must veil their eyes before them.
Moses and Eiias so surrounded with glory
that the three disciples were overcome
with the vision on the mount of transfig
uration. The walls are like a great jewel,
the street -of pure gold and every single
gate a pearl. You know the brightness of
> one little gem as it sparkles on your
, finger, but 01 the wonderful thought that
[iSj every gate is a pearl, and the day will come
when we may go sweeping through the
gates if we v.-di. Cod has done everything
that He could do. and our entering in now
rests upon ourselves. But the brightness
cf heaven, aside from the presence of
Christ, is not due to the gales, nor to the
..Trails, nor to flic streets, bat to the pres
ence of those who have been redeemed.
I have been to'il that the deeper the
water the larger the pearl. Whether that
he true or not I can not tell, but 1 know
that from the greatest depths Cod fame
time! takes His brightest jewels. It is no
cause for discouragement if you have been
a prrat sinner. Paul was a persecutor,
Bunyan a blasphemer, Newton a libertine,
and yet they shine to day as the jewels of
Christ.
Geologists tell us that the diamond is
only crystallised carbon, charcoal glorified.
This book tc-lls us something better than
that, that “though vour sins be as sgariet,
they shall be as white as snow, though
they be red like crimson, they shall be as
wool.”

J ' ? A CITY OF GATES.
There is something significant in the fact
that heaven is a City of gates. The idea
must be that there is some special way td
get in. We can r.ot live just as we please
and at the last enter heaven; we might if
it were not enclosed. The Bible tells us
that we may cOme in from the north, the
south, the east and west, but we are
obliged to pass through the gates, and it is
not always easy. “Straight is the gate and
narrow is the way,” one might be liable to’
miss it. “Strive to enter in,” says the
Billie; so one must lie very earnest. Christ
said, “I am the way. the truth', the life:”
“I am the door.” and again. “No man eoni
eth unto the Father but bv Me.” Some
people think that God is so merciful that
-after awhile they, may stand til His pres
ence but Hd is just as, well as.merciful;
and He has provided the war ,bv which
every one must enter heaven. It is through
the gate. Reformation will not do, mora’-
ity can not answer; it is giving up yourself
to Him. putting your hand in His and lct
timr Him lead you all the journey of life,
until von pass through the gates. A
child, dying said to his father; “I
wouldn't be afraid to cd if mamma
would eo with me.” “But.” he said, “littld
or.e, she can’t go.” Then the child said,
T want you to go,” and he said, “my dar
ling, I can’t go.” Then when the child
had prayed to Him who had promised to
walk through the valley of the shadow,
after a little whi’e he said, “I am not
afraid now. for Christ has said that He
will ha with me. and He will.” Lift up
your heads, oh, ye gates, lift them up, for
the time is coming when with Jesus wo
shall pass through!
GATES OF PEARL.
I am sure that there is some meaning in
the fact that the gates are of pearl. Do
you know the history of pearls? Humanly
speaking it, is a history of suffering. When
discovered it is at the risk of the pearl
fisher's life. It is said that pearls are
formed by the intrusion of some foreign
substance between the mantel of the mol*
hisk and its shell. This is a source of irri
tation, suffering and pain, and a substance
is thrown around about that which is in
truded to prevent suffering, and thVis the
pearl is formed. Do you begin to see the
significance of the fact that the gates are
of peart, and not of gold? There was a
time when there was no entrance into
heaven for us; sin had closed it: man had
grievously sinned, he had broken every
law of God. and there was no hope for him
at all. Then it was that the Babe was cra
dled in the manger, became a youth, grew
to manhood, endured thirfv-lhree years of
suffering, culminating in the agony upon
Calvary, when in the tremendous tension
His heart broke. Then it was FTe died,
the just for the unjust, the innocent, for
the guilty; then it was that He arose from
the dead, went out unto Bethany, ascended
into heaven to swing wide open the gates.
And tlni3 it is thev are onen to-day, and
one never hears of the gates of pearl but
he must realize in some measure what sal
vation cost, not eo much to you and to me,
but to Him—-humiliation, sorrow, suffer
ing. death, and' do you realize that every
one who refuses allegiance to Him is ar
rayed against Him. for He said. “You arc
cither for Me or against Me, there is no
middle ground?”
TWELVE GATES.
How full the word of God is! In its
teaching beauty and sweetness come from
it with every touch. It is a rock; you
can not touch it but the water of life will
come forth. It is a flower; you can not
come near it, without being blessed by its
fragrance. There is something to mo-even
in the number of heaven’s gates. The
twelve gates were twelve pearls, three on
i very side, and the city lieth four square.
Ia this not nfl that God has
made abundant provision for our entrance
into the city above? It is man who has
narrowed down the way. The Bible iuvi
tetion is, “Whosoever will, let him come."
The provision is abundant. No one can
stand at the judgment and nay anything
but this, "Lord, I might have entered, but
I would not.” Twelve gates, and if von
are not in it, it is your fault alone. God
has done alt that He could do. The Trin
ity has been exhausted, almost, on a sinful
world, and He will do no more; it is for us
ourselves to choose to enter in, it is very
easy to be saved.
In one of the schools of a great city by
the falling of a transom a cry of fire was
started. The children were panic-stricken,
nud the teachers as well. -In rushing from
the building many were injured; some
were killed. When it was found that the
alarm was false, returning to her room one
of the teachers found sitting at, her desk
a young girl who had not stirred. When
asked the reason for her braveness, she
• aid. “My father is a fireman, and he toid
me if ever there was an alarm of fire Tn
thy building just to sit still where I was
and lie would save me. My father is a fire
man and he knows, and I just trusted
him.” That confidence in Jesus Christ
would bring salvation.
Said a man in Glasgow to a distinguished
evangelist. "I am very anxious to be
saved; what must. I do?” The evangelist
quoted many passiges of Scripture to him,
among them John iii.. Ifl: “For God so
loved the world that He gave His onlv be
gotten Son that whosoever believeth in
Him,” and when he had gone this far the
man stopped him, saying, “But I do be
lievo.” Then the evangelist quoted the
sixth chapter of John and the forty-sev
enth verse, Christ’s own words: "Verily,
veriiv, I say unto you, he that believeth
mi Me hath everlasting life.” The man
saw it in a moment and cried put rejoic
ing. “J have got it, I have got it.” That
kind of acceptance of God brings everlast
ing life. Twelve gates, and every gate a
pearl, and every gate exactly alike, so af
ter all there is only-one way.
THE GATES ARE OPEN.
I am so glad that the gates arc open to
day. Wc read that they shall not be shut
at all by day. and as there is no night
there the conclusion is that they are open
constantly. They are open now. Some
h ire been going in since we have been
speaking-; at every tick of the clock a soul
- , i ♦-• away. I wish that I might go as
did Alexander Cruden. seventy years of
age, giving to the world his concordance,
dying in want because he had given so
freely to others. Going into his room
they found him kneeling, his face buried
in the Bible, his white hair falling down
npon the chair, his spirit gone, the very
a’.ice’s filling the room where he had been.
T wish that I might, go as did Daviif Liv
in -stone. They looked into his tent door*
and slid one to another, “Keep silence,
the great leader is in prayer,” for he was
o-i hi knees. After a little while they
• r.me back, and he seemed to be still pray
ing; then half an hour later again, and
ben they touched him they found that
Livingstone was dead. The. chariots of
God had halted while he prayed, and Liv
ingstone. entering in, was caught up into
trie skies. Ob, (he joy of such an entrance
into heaven!
Dr. Pierre, returning to France from In
dia afier a long journey, said that his men
when they came in sight of their native
land were unfitted for duly. Some of
them wistfully gazed upon the land they
loved. Some of them shouted, some
prayed, some fainted, and it is said that
when they came near enough to recognize
their friends on shore that every man left
bis post of dutv. and it was necessary for
help to come off the land before the vessel
could be anchored in the harbor. Oh! the
iov of thus entering heaven. Welcome
v roa the gates, welcome from our friends
long cone, welcome from every angel in
the sit es. The jov, the joy of one day
sweeping through the gates!

Britons Play Too Much.
After the Englishman remarks com
placently: “It will come ont all
right,” he is apt to leave his office for
the rest of the afternoon and go to a
foot ball or cricket, game. While he
works he accomplishes as much as
any one can, but, at most, business
hours limit his endeavor. Ho will not
work night and day, as many Ameri
can wealthy men are In the habit of
doing. He does business, but he
doesn't mean business. He is not
eager for the “joy of achievement.”
He throws his heart into the play on
the ball field rather than into the work
at the office. Mr. Kipling’s lines about
the “flanneled fools and the muddled
cats” struck the center —somewhat
harshly, perhaps—of a great truth.
The newspapers arc full of the latest
news about the royalty. These wor
thies are usually at the race courses
or the games in the afternoon. They
are at the theatre in the evening, and
if there is a choice between a ballet at
the Empire and “Faust” at the Ly
ceum, they are likely to pass Irving
by for the ballet. The newspapers
have a way of publishing what they
call “stoppress news," news that is im
portant enough to stop the presses to

or offensive odors as a means of pro

warns his readers against regarding
animal etimoiogy too much from the
human standpoint. Because animals
