;:eBEU NEWTON ON TRUE IDKAS OF GOD.
The Rev. R. Heber Newton, preached at
A'l Souls' Church, in West Forty-eighth
.’ "The Scientific Idea of God and the
o,,ritual Vision of a Heavenly Father” wai
n- Then e “It seems to me,” said Mr. New
‘ ' "that a true idea of God ought to
. able to verify itself in the general
o s iousness of man. This is the conclusion
rhich science reaches as Mr. Abbott inter-
‘ tt her thought. 'Because, as an infinite
.reanisni it thus manifests infinite wisdom,
■ower and goodness, or thought, feeling.and
vdl m their infinite fullness, and because
hesc three constitute the essential mauifesta
ous of personality, it must be conceived as
nfluite person, absolute spirit, creative
iiurce, and eternal home of the derivitive
n e p.-is ma'ities whi h depend upon it. but
ire no less real than itself. * * * What
.th but infinite beatitude, infinite benign
tv. infinite love —the all onibracing father
ibod and motherhood of God.’
•Let me tell you how, in a very simple
a h on. I reach this bles-ed assurance. From
he un ty of nature it follows that all forms
liein" are ; artial manifestations of this in
to.- and eternal eneigy. That which is es
.ntially human is undoubtedly what we, for
a, k of a better term, call personality—intel
igenoe conscious of itself, free in the power
>f will, owning the moral law. If we do not
Ind personality in the cry stal and the beetle,
md but, a dreamlike personality in the dog,
md if we do find such personality in man,
which fact are we to trust as the better ex
pression of the infinite and eternal energy
that, is in us all ? The answer of evolution to
this question is unmistakable. The
higher forms of life must more
truly express thejnature of the infinite and
eternal energy than the lower forms can pos
sibly do. Over a muddy creek a willow
hangs and tries to image its soft flowing lines
in the waters below, how vainly! Above the
clear crystal water of the mountain tarn, ‘the
sacred pine’ stoops and sees its noble form
faithfully mirrored in the lake. Each finer
organism is capable of reflecting a finer
image of the face which broods over ns, seek
ing to mirror itself. Man is the mystic flower
of the great tree Igdrasil. I must interpret
the dim, shadowy outline of the Infinite
Power which these lower forms trace for me
by the clearer, nobler form which comes
forth in my consciousness. My consciousness
yields as the essential human fact the idea of
personality. lam a man inasmuch as I am
an intelligence conscious of itself, free in the
power of will, owning the moral law. I am
obliged then to look up into the face which
bends down over life seeking to mirror itself,
and trust the reflection which comes forth in
my nature of the personal power whom I
must call Father. The Divine Being is not
less than personal, however, much more than
personal He may be. He cannot be uncon
scious, since unconsciousness in nature is the
lower form of being which opens into con
sciousness. He cannot be unmoral, since
nature, as it strains toward man, passes out
of the calm indilTerentism of the brute into a
hungering and thirsting after righteousness.
God cannot be heartless, since the very mea
sure of man lies in the heart.
"Because of what I am, as a man, I am
obliged to think of God not lees than man but
only more than man, not subhuman but
superhuman, essentially humanity, lifted
higher and breathed out to larger form. Evo
lution goes on in humanity. Climb now to
the very topmost crest of humanity, the
supremely good one of earth. What mons
trous freak of madness could equal a creation
capable, through slow, orderly progressive
development, of unfolding such a human
flower as Jesus of Nazareth without having,
below this climbing growth, a life in which it
roots, infinite and eternal, the source and
spring, the type and pattern, of this flower of
nature! We overheard the soliloquies of his
soul telling the vision mirrored in the calm,
clear waters of his soul, as the sun’s face is
caught and held in the blue mountain lake.
Over the face of Jesus, th l face that bends
ami broods, is a greater human face—One
in whose image he saw himself to be made.
Renan confesses: ‘The highest con-
sciousness of God which ever existed
in the breast of humanity was
that of Jesus.’ This granted, the con
sciousness of Jesus becomes thesuprem ■ vord
of God, a word in which wo are to trust im
plicitly, not as a something wholly apart
from our own cons-iounsess, but as the artic
ulate utterance of the thought that struggles
for expression in ourselves, the clear vision
which in the ordinary man is but shadow
and cloud. Spinoza declared Jesus to be the
temple of God, in which God most fully re
veals himself. The revelation of God
in Christ is the consciousness of God in
Jesus. The blood of the Eternal beats them
m our veins.”
THINKING THAT LEADS TO UNBELIEF.
Dr. White, of the West Twenty-third Street
Presbyterian church, took his text from He
brew xii, 15-16. He said in part: “Men from
intellectual pride sell their birthright by
turning away from God and professing to
find ag< d among the philosophical idols of
the day. The temptation comes in this form:
It I wish to prove my intellectual vigor i
must, not accept anything upon trust. I
must, demand that everything be explained
so that its mysteries be cleared up; then I
must not accept anything ms true that cannot
lie proved by the successive steps of logic or
d emonstrated by the exhibition of scientific
experiment. The old faith of my fathers is
very simple and very comforting, but I must
not be misled by any unexplained instincts
ol my nature, n >r deluded by any pretended
reflation from the unseen world. To be
sure thousands of women and children and
" , ■ uple-minded men have accepted this
tile in Go,l aud Christ without any very

A PILLAR IN THE TEMPLE.
one F- Ih-ice, of the Madison Ave-
5 atlonal church: “ ‘Him that
f inv c Sh ’ 'ZIl 1 m* ke a pillar in the temple
fool is v " e classify men as wise and
miserable, grasping and
?\ b - ut lhe classification is on the
‘ their attitude toward sin—are they
1 i
yielding to it or struggling against it! Many
Who s niggle fall b ■cause they have no
abiding place. A stone built into a temple is
fixed. it is necessary where it is and useless
anvwh >re else. Tue day when it was hewn
is f'lrgot en. Men and women are coming iu
and going out of the temp! ' daily a-king
strength from God and then hurrying back
into the world to use it for their own selfish
en !s but th .‘pillars of the temple remain.
Tney came iu to stay, and they go no more |
out. There are men who love their country
because of the advantages she gives them,
and others for her own sake. The latter
class are the patriots. Their names go down
in history, never to be lost or forgotten.
Some study solely for the advantages
whi b education will give them, others for
the sake, of truth alone. These are
enrolled as the great -cholars of the world.
So those who serve God for His truth's sake,
who strive to fulfil the end for which they
were created, they are those who are pillars
in His temple, and who go out then -e no
more: they must first le hewn out. and fitted
tothi-ir places by contact with the world in
, the • truggle for life. They often feel the
blows of the hammer fitting them to become
stones in the temple, shap.sl by toil and suf
fering into the likeness of God, perfect and
everlasting. And upon the stones of the
temple shall be cut three inscriptions, that
all may know that it is the temple of God;
‘The name of my God, the name of the city
of my God and my new name.’ ”
RELIGIOUS LESSONS FROM THE OREGON.
The Rev. C. B. Smith, of the St,
Janies Protestant Episcopal church: "The
ship is the most human work of num and
equally the divine work of God. The most hu
man b-cause it is so like the human Imdy. But
how were its parts so perfectly combined in
two ways: by man, who during long centu
ries studied the physical laws of the Creator,
and by God subtly guiding man. The many
overlook the fact that ships ere as distinctly
the works of God as trees or rivers or oceans.
Man has simply be.-n doing what God planned
for him to do. Now, there is something in
that sunken Oregon like the generations of
the past. Every present generation is brought
into its mh -ritance in the arms of the genera
tion vanishing. Reformers making it better
for ]x>sterity to live, and then as their work
is done vanishing. The Son of God in sav
' ing the world leaves the world. But look
not only at the dark side but also at the
bright side. See Christ’s willingness to do
so long as He lived to see the redemption of
mankind. Look at the joy of parents as life
abbs away if only they see their children
nappy. This is the parable of the sinking
ship. There is also the parable of the saved
traveler. We sail on the sea of life Our
bodies are the ships in which our souls are
passengers. God brought every one safe to
shore from the sinking Oregon. The ship
alone was lost. Shall it be so with you, my
brother?”
THE JUST DEMANDS OF MISSION WORK.
The Rev. Dr. J. N. Fitzgerald preached in
the Central Methodist Episcopal church on
the subject of “Missions.” He said in part:
Many jiersons, when asked to contribute to
missionary work, consider that their dona
tions are to be expended entirely in foreign
missions, and say that there is plenty of room
for all their donations and labor at home. If
that is a candid remark, a fair hearing should
be accorded to it; but if it is merely an ex
cuse to get out of making a contribution to
the work, it should not receive the slightest
recognition. This society, in the Methodist
church, reaches to all classes of people at
home and abroad. In the home mission one
may specify towhatparticulardepartmentof
;it he desires his contribution to go. To the
Indian, or to the Chinese, that race which
has responded to the proverbial saying:
“Uncle Sam has room enough to give us all
a farm,” have come to this country, and have
been tyrannized and brutally treated in a
manner the like of which has never occurred
before in a civilized country. Others want
their contributions to go to helping the work
of iai-ing up th" blacks; others to the Ger
mans; others to th-i Swede, Swiss or Scandi
navian. In all these branches of home and
foreign missions this society has workers.
But if you cannot decide upon which particu
lar department in which you wish to put your
money, place it in the general contribution,
and a little will be sent to help the worker in
all parts of the world.
WHAT TRUE LIBERTY IB FOR MEN.
Dr. Hall preached in the Fifth Avenue
Presbyterian church on “True Liberty.” He
said: There are various kinds of freedom.
We may think of it on the social and politi
cal plane, and then we may have freedom
from tyranny. Or on the moral plane and we
have freedom from bad habits of living. Or
on that of spiritual life, and we have deliver
ance from sin and from the fear that hath
torment. We are citizens of the United
States, and it is common to say we are
free. But we know that there are forms of
bondage that are entirely compatible with
our free institutions. We know how a
ring may worm itself around a community
and put it under bondage. A judge may
manage to get himself into a place from
which it is difficult to dislodge him.who may
be bribed to defend the guilty ana oppress
the innocent. If men are slow to acknowl
edge such bondages as these, it is not strange
that they will not acknowlede their state of
moral bondage. It is through Jesus that true
liberty comes. There are spurious forms of
freedom. A young man throws off the re
straints of home life and even of society, and
travels over the world with no check upon
the indulgin ■ of his tastes and of his lusts. Is
he free? Is he not rather a slave to his pas
sions? A man makes money getting his ob
ject and throws off the straints of honesty. He
is not Everything that is good has its
counterfeit. Never confound the counterfeit
with the reality. We hear a good deal about
the region of law. No matter how good you
are socially you are in the grip of God’s
law. He is infinitely just, and if you are not
¥ enitent. His law of death will be enforced.
he spirit of life in Christ Jesus can make
you free from the law of sin and death.
A Last Will.
When I was a boy I heard of a lawyer
who was called up in the middle of a
winter’s night to draw out the will of
an old farmer who lived some three
miles away, and who was dying. The
messenger had brought a cart to convey
the lawyer to the farm, and the latier in
due time arrived at his destination.
When he entered the house, he was
immediately ushered into the sick room,
and he then requested to be supplied
with pen, ink and paper. There were
none in the house ! The lawyer hail not
brought any himself, and what was he
to do? Any lead pencil? he inquired.
No : they had none. The farmer was
sinking fast, although quite conscious.
At last the legal gentleman saw chalked
up on the back of the bedroom door
column upon column of figures in chalk.
These were milk “scores” or “shots.”
He immediately asked for a piece of
chalk,, and then kneeling on the floor,
he wrote out concisely upon the smooth
hearthstone the last will and testament
of the dying man. The farmer subse
quently died. The hearthstone will was
sent to the principal registry in London
with special affidavits, and was duly
proved, the will being deposited in the
archives of the registry. I may mention
that the law does not state upon what
substance or with what instrument a
will must be written.— All the Year

dreadfully reckless. Senator Van Wyke

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS.
Prof. Baird says that a fair estimate of
the annual product of the American fish
eries would not fall short of one million
dollars.
Hatching fish artificially has com
menced at the establishment of the
National Fish Culture Association, South
Kensington, near London.
From his studies of the Krakatoa
catastrophe Verbeek is led to maintain I
that part of our globe remains still in a
molten state, and he disputes the theory
which has been advanced that the heat
of the volcanic furnaces is entirely due
to local chemical action.
Dr. C. E. Saunders states that as no
outbreak of cholera has been known to
occur in a aew locality in less time than
it would take a man to travel the dis
tance from the nearest place where the
disease already existed, it is pretty con
clusive that human agencies rather than
climatic causes are responsible for the
spread of the disease.
Successful experiments have been made
in joining and restoring the functions of
divided nerves, even nerves of different
function being used to replace those
partially destroyed. It is thought that
even sight and hearing may be restored,
after injury to the nerves on which they
depend, by bringing other nerves into
service by artificial union.
An Irish physician, Dr. Henry Ma
caulay, has made the unique suggestion
that the intense heat of the sun in tropical
countries be used as an agent for cooling
buildings. He would use Mulchot’s sun
engine for pumping cold air into factories,
dwellings, etc., as in this way the
temperature of the rooms may be reduced
from 100 degrees to 60 degrees. This
plan is available only where ice may be
obtained.
M. Ballaud asserts that flour kept in
sacks for two or three years is unwhole
some, because alkaloids are formed in
consequence of the acidity of the old
flour during the transformation of gluten
under the influence of the natural ferment
of wheat. When such flour is treated
with ether and the product evaporated
on a sand bath, there is found a fatty
matter which has an acid reaction, ex
hales a disagreeable odor and has an
acrid taste.
To determine how far off the moon
actually appears from the eye the late
Mons. Plateau devised an ingenious ex
periment, which may be repeated by any
person. Looking steadily at the full moon
a few moments, he turned suddenly
round toward a wall, and noted the size i
of the dark accidental or complimentary
image when projected on the wall.
When, by moving forward or backward,
this spectral image is made to assume the
size of the real moon, it must appear to
be the same distance from the observer’s
eye; and Mons Plateau found his distance
from the wall to be about fifty-six yards. |
In a similar manner Mons. Stroobant
proved the sun’s apparent distance to be
about fifty-three yards.
Longevity.
In order to live a hundred years, it has
been announced that you must breaths
all the out-of-door air possible, and
breathe it deeply, and that you must tako
your sleep as nature indicates, eight or
nine hours in the early part of the dark,
which will allow you to be up anill fully
refreshed at sunrise. In addition to
these important items of sleep and
breath, it is further declared that yo«
must not permit yourself to get angry or
to fret or worry; but that, if you must, al
once take a bath and some immediate
slumber: that you must eat more vegeta
bles and grains and fruits than meats, I
and dismiss wines and spirits, coffee and
tea; that you must bathe often, wear
loose clothing, and keep warm; and that
you must control your appetites and pas
sions, cultivate cheerful serenity, and be j
governed by the advice of your physician.

Drinks for the Voice.
Tea, coffee and cocoa are three admis
sible drinks, but none in excess. For the
voice cocoa is the most beneficial. It
should never be made too strong, and
those cocoas are the best that have been
deprived of their oil. A cup of thin
cocoa, just warm, is more to be recom
mcned between the exertions of singing
than any alcoholic beverage. Tea must
not be taken too strong, nor when it has
drawn too long, for tea then becomes
acrid and has a bad influence on the mu
cous membrane that lines the throat.
There is always a dry sensation after hav
ing taken a cup of tea that has been al
lowed to draw too long. A vocalist had
better do without sugar in tea and only ,
take milk with it, or if an exhilarating
drink is needed, mix some claret with
the tea, putting in a slice of lemon and
some honey.

Justice Field tells how his pride had
a fall. When he was a young man he
was particularly proud of his erect form
and fine, curling hair. Walking one

resulted in permanent lameness and a
consequent stoop in bis shoulders. Af
terward hard study produced brain
fever, and a fly-blister cured the fever
and destroyed his waving locks.
Gladstone, as a young man, was not
overestimated by Disraeli, who wrote in
a letter in February, 1845, and now first
published, that Gladstone’s address was
dull and ineffective, and that he might

think so. He also writes of a dull din

was present; but there was an excellent
