THE PULPIT.
A BRILLIANT SUNDAY SERMON BY
THE REV. W. H. M’MASTER.
Theme: Spiritual Awakening.
Brooklyn, N. Y.—The Rev. W. H.
McMaster, pastor of the Embury Me
morial M. E. Church, Lewis avenue
and Decatur street, preached Sunday
morning on “The Spiritual Awaken
ing of Man.” The text was from
Luke 9:32: “When they were fully
awake they saw His glory.” Mr. Mc-
Master said:
The common yet strange phenom
ena of sleep and waking provide us
with a significant simile. The state
when the body is dormant, the senses
are stopped and reason is absent, be
comes the symbol of inaction, ob
livion, unconsciousness, death. The
state of waking comes to represent In
our language, action, awareness, re
sponsiveness, life. Sin is said to put
the soul to sleep in moral night.
Christ is represented as the awakener
of those asleep, the lifter of those
dead into newness of life. A sin is
represented by sleep and death, life is
represented by light and’ glory. The
basal suggestion in the word “glory”
is that of dazzling brightness, of efful
gence, and it will gather a deepening
content as the wealth and wonder of
the spiritual life are unveiled.
Religion has as its subject matter
not the morbid, erratic and abnormal
things of dreams and nightmares, but
the normal visions of the awakened
soul. When the soul is most normal
and when it has most nearly attained
the Ideal state, then its sight is clearest
and its vision greatest. When Peter,
James and John, on the Mount of
Transflgurat'jn, were heavy with
sleep, they saw nothirng and heard
nothing, but when they were fully
awake they saw Christ’s glory and the
two men who stood with Him. The
non-religious mind is asleep and dead
to the all-enveloping realities of the
unseen spiritual world. Having ears,
they hear not the upper harmonies,
having eyes they see not the tran
scendent glories. The awakened
mind, on the other hand, has come to
spiritual consciousnes's. He responds
to spiritual stimuli; he feels the lure
of moral beauty, his faculties have
found a sphere of blessed action and
his ’"hole personality is awakened to
a spiritual sensitiveness which catches
ravishing glimpses of the divine
glQry.
jv’Tile world of spiritual reality is all
around us. It inspheres us as an at
mosphere. It is underneath and im
minent in all material forms. “In
God we live and move and have our
being.” Our real selves are unseen
and spiritual, the body being the
earthen vessel of the unseen gift of
life. Our words are visible or audible
signs of spiritual ideas. Our draw
ings of lines and angles and circles
but visible representations of purely
ideal relations, our books and li
braries but means of concreting and
preserving that spiritual thing we
call literature. We are asleep and
dead to all we are ignorant of. If
we are aware of the treasures of lit
erature we are awake and alive to
them. If we are conscious of the un
seen and spiritual things we are
awake and alive to them. Because
we do not see these spiritual glories
does not argue their non-existence,
but only our dead condition. Those
who see them are the prophets, the
seers, the men of spiritual authority
and leadership. Christ was just as
divine and just as glorious down in
the valley healing the demoniac child
and restoring him into his father's
arms as He was on _Mount Hermon
when the disciples saw His garments
as white as snow. The only differ
ence was that on the mountain “they
were fully awake and saw His glory.”
The waking of the soul is a process.
The true object of education is to
awaken and arouse and develop the
powers of the personality. The
growth of the bodily powers is largely
conditioned by well-directed activity,
hence calisthenics and gymnastics.
The development of the mental facul
ties is conditioned by stimulating
thought activity, hence systems of in
struction, and teachers and courses of
study. The awakening of the moral
nature is conditioned by doing the
Will of God, hence prayer and
churches and ritiu^ and preaching
and religion. TheWWect of religious
instruction is to awaken the sleeping
conscience, the dormant feelings, the
inactive will and enlist them actively
in the spiritual love and labor, of
Christ.
The history of religion when
written from the standpoint of pro
gressive development will be the
story of the awakening of the soul
to spiritual things. Professor Bourne
Asays: “When there is little mental
or moral development the religious
instinct can cling to a stick, or a stone
or some low and hideous animal.
But as life unfolds and intellect is
clarified and conscience becomes reg
nant in ourTeligious thinking, it then
appears that there are certain condi
tions that must be met by any religion
that is to command the assent of de
veloped humanity.” All races have
worship <nd religion. The aweken
ing of the mind, as evidenced in the
progress of education, has made wor
worshlp and religion. The awaken
ing of the sense of the beautiful, as
evidenced by the progress of art and
esthetics, has made worship more
beautiful. The awakening of the
moral nature, as evidenced by ethical
systems and ethical emphasis, has
made worship more ethical. When
men are fully awake they will see the
glory of Christ, for He is the truth for
the mind, love for the heart and
power and guide for the will. No true
development of the human personality
will exceed the glory of Christ, nor
go so high that He shall not remain^
its ideal and its good. We can think'
of nothing in the moral and spiritual
scale beyond or better than Jesus
Christ.
Christ is not onty the ideal of this
spiritual awakening, but He is the
great cause of it. He is the inspira
tion of the modern scientific research
for truth. His challenge was “Come
and see.” He exalted the child mind
of inquiry, of openness to the truth,
as the type and by taking that atti
tude toward nature man has come
into possession of her truth. By
obeying nature man has come to con
trol her. By getting down humbly
to learn from her, she has exalted
man by her treasures and Tret secrets.
The mind of Christ, which obeys,
which is open to the truth, which
challenges investigation, which sub
mits the aailprlnts to the most doubt
ful scrutiny, Is the instrument of
progress in knowledge. So also in
the moral* realm, Christ is the great
power I 'to quicken the conscience, pro
duce repentance and win the moral
nature to the highest standards. He
has developed the moral nature to
the place where no man can hope to
be religious beyond the extent that
he is moral, and no corporation repre- •
sents Christian things beyond the ex
tent that it incorporates the ethics
of Christian love in all its business.
Christ is leader in' the great intel
lectual and moral awakenings of our
times. He has led us to this mount
of awakening and we, like the favored
apostles, when we are fully awake
will see the glory of Jesus Christ.
Christ is the most powerful force
in human life for the awakening of
the intellect in search for truth, or
the quickening of the conscience to
repentance and faith, and for swing
ing the soul with all its awakened and
aroused powers into service for men,
even to thq point of free and glad self
sacrifice.
As men follow Christ, He has re
habilitated their faith in the spiritual,
and broken the illusive spell cast over
them by the material, the false and
superstitious views of God lose their
hold on their minds and fade away be
fore the sun-like doctrine of the di
vine Fatherhood. The selfishness of
men’s hearts is softened into brother
ly good will and the old religions cast
aside their crudities and sink them
selves in the more effulgent light of
Christianity, the basis for the final
and ultimate faith of mankind. Who
shall say what greater glories await
to surprise the more fully awakened
powers of man’s soul! When we are
fully awake we shall behold His
glory.
Discoverers of Opportunity.
It is a peculiarity of human nature
that we do not readily respond to op
portunities for doing good unless we
discover them in ourselves. There is
something in the self-disbovery of op
portunity that carries with it both In
spiration and the sense of responsi
bility. Tell one that the chance con
fronts him of doing this or that, show
him the human need, and show him
also the way to supply it, and he will
thank you—but how seldom he will
follow your well-meant but more or
less officious advice!
On the other hand, let one discover
for himself the thing that ought to be
done, and most likely he will go and
do it. The very discovery of human
qeed is an incentive to human help
fulness. One is ripe for the joy and
inspiration of service that begins with
his own initiative.
Is not this one of God's wise pro
visions for keeping us alive to the
constant presence of opportunities?
He gives us great joy in the personal
discovery of them, and the personal
response to them, whereas an oppor
tunity discovered and pointed out by
another is a kind of'lifeless and re
mote thing, that we respond to, if we
respond at all, perfunctorily and with
out enthusiasm. At such times we
feel as if we had been cheated out
of the best part of the joy of doing
good—the doing it upon our own in
itiative, with the glad heart that is
alert to opportunity’s call. Wisely
has it been said that “the value of an
opportunity largely consists in having
seen it for one’s self. ” —The Watch
man.
One Sure Thing.
One thing is sure, my' friends: If
God is going to forgive us our sins,
we have got to repent of our sins and
turn from them. “Let the wicked
forsake his ways.” Not only must we
forsake our sins, but we must bring
forth fruits meet for repentance. I
don’t know who the young man was
w’ho went to his employer the other
morning and said: “There's the
money I took from you some years
ago,” but that was bringing forth
fruits meet for repentance. We have
not only got to forsake our sins, but
if we have injured any one, if we have
slandered him and caused him to
suffer, we must make restitution as
far as we can. And when we bring
forth such fruits, men will have confi
dence in our Christianity. I have
heard of a man who had four of his
neighbor’s sheep stray in among his
own, and he took the marks off them
and kept them. When he was con
verted, these four sheep troubled him.
Don’t think that you are going to
have peace with God if you’ve got
four sheep that belong to somebody
else, or have put somebody else’s
money into your pocket.—Moody.
Why It Pays to Conquer Sin.
It is better to conquer temptation
than to be freed from it. Therefore
God does not, at once, take us out of
the world and beyond the reach of
temptation; He does better than that
when He keeps us here and offers
us His omnipotence for the defeat of
our enemy. A victorious, sin-beset
man has more to be grateful for than
an undisturbed angel. For every vic
tory over sin brings two notable re
sults. It increases our own power
against temptation, and it lessens the
effectiveness of that temptation in its
next onset. So God actually helps us
to get freed from temptation every
time we use His strength to defeat
temptation. It may not always ap
peal’ so, for temptation dies hard; but
it is so, and we can prove it if we
will fight on in undiscouraged as
surance that it is a one-sided conflict,
after all, and. God and we are on that
side. —Sunday-School Times.
Teaching Nuggets.
They who fear the Lord do not need
to fear.
A crooked life cannot lead on the
straight way.
A good life is no small contribution
■ to any man’s logic.
To be true to the best is the best
we can do for truth.
The welfare of any people is de
termined by their worship.
All His love in the past calls for
our loyalty in the present.
Present consecration is the best
corrective of past crookedness.
Much moral astigmatism is due to
pressure on the money nerve.
Many an ill of the heart would be
cured if the hands were kept clean.
There is nothing that will help you
to lead others more than being able
to look back over a right life your
self. —Henry F. Cope, in Sunday-
School Times.

An Early “Good Road.”
The. desire to speculate a hundred
or more years ago was apparently
as great as it is to-day. An example
of this is shown by the organization
of a company in 1792 to build a turn
pike from Philadelphia to Lancaster,
Pa., a distance of sixty miles. The
charter was secured, and in ten days
2235 subscribers made application
for stock. As this was more than
the law allowed, the names were
placed in a lottery wheel and 600
w'ere drawn; with these subscriptions
the work began. The road builders
of that day knew little or nothing re
garding the construction of high
ways, and the ridiculous mistakes
made m this occasion taught them
some valuable lessons. The land was
condemned, the trees felled and the
roadbed prepared. The largest
stones that could be found were
dumped upon it for a foundation,
and upon this colossal base earth
and gravel were spread: then the
work was declared complete; but
when the washing raivs came deep
holes appeared on every hand, sharp
stones protruded from the surface,
and the horses received scratched
and broken limbs as they sank be
tween the bowlders up to their knees.
The gigantic error of the road build
er was then made plain. Indigna
tion meetings were held, at which
the turnpike company was con
demned and the legislature blamed
for giving the charter. Had it not
been for ah Englishman who offered
to rebuild the turnpike on the mac
adam plan, as he had seen roads
built in the “old country,” improved
road construction would have re
ceived a severe blow. The English
man’s proposition was accepted by
the company, and he was successful
in completing the Lancaster and
Philadelphia turnpike road, which
was then declared to be the best piece
of highway in the United States—
“a masterpiece of its kind.”—G. E.
M., in the Indiana Farmer.
The Price of Bad Roads.
In reducing the good roads ques
tion to the dollars and cents basis,
the Department of Agriculture has
handed the farmers and country tax
payers generally an argument which
they ought to find irresistible. The
department’s figures are based on
careful and exhaustive tests. They
demonstrate that the actual cost of
hauling, per ton-mile, is sixty-four
cents over dry, sandy roads, eighty
nine cents over earth roads of the
usual muddy and rutted variety, 11.9
cents on broken stone roads in ordi
nary condition, and eight cents on
broken stone roads in good condi
tion.
This means, concretely, that good
roads pay ample cash dividends, and
that the saving which they make
possible far overbalances the cost of
construction. A road of broken
stone . means consistently reduced
expenses as long as it lasts. It cost
the farmers 521,650,000 to haul the
wheat crop to the railroads in 1906.
This was an average price, for all
drayage. of nineteen cents a ton
mile. But where there were im
proved roads, the figures show that
the drayage cost was only ten cents
per ton-mile. Had all the corn,
wheat and cotton crops of 1906 been
hauled over good roads, the pro
ducers of them would have saved
$27,000,000.
How long will Virginia farmers
continue to pay the heavy toll of bad
roads? —Richmond Times-Dispatch.
, A Recent Decision.
A recent opinion by Attorney-Gen
eral Malone, of Massachusetts, is of
interest to cities and towns that have
adopted the plan of oiling highways
to keep down the dust. Mr. Malone
holds that there is no liability on the
part of the authorities for damages
resulting from the use of oil and tar
on roads. His reasoning is that there
is no more ground for holding a town
or city responsible for injury to
clothing or vehicles by oil than there
is for assessing damages when some
body is spattered with mud. Among
nearby places that have taken to
employing oil on highways is Yon
kers, where the splendid macadam
in North Broadway has been heavily
sprinkled with crude petroleum,
much to the satisfaction of residents
and motor enthusiasts.—New York
Tribune.
Gallantry.
Here is something that actually
happened at Bean Lake yesterday:
A young couple drove over from Atch
ison. They went boating, and the
girl took off her shoes and stocking
to paddle her feet in the water. When
she went to put on her stockings she
missed one of them. The young man
took off his socks and gave them to
her, supporters and all. She wore
them back to town, and he wore his
shoes without any socks. —Atchison
Globe.
A Trophy.
Two country youths were on a visit
to London. They went into the Brit
ish Museum and there saw a mummy,
over which hung a card, on w’hich was
printed, “B. C. 87.”
They were very mystified, and one
said: “What do you make of it.
Bill?”
“Well," said Bill, “I should say that
it was the number of the motor car
that killed him.” —Tit-Bits.

“I had an itching, tormenting eczema
ever since I came into the world, and I am
now a man fifty-five years old. I tried all
kinds of medicines I heard of, but found no
relief. I was truly in a frightful condition.
At last I broke out all over with red and
white boils, which kept growing until they
were as big as walnuts, causing great pain
and misery, but I kept from scratching as
well as I could. I was so run down that
I could hardly do my work. I used Cuti

Coffee Drinking on the Increase.
Coffee bids fair to become the most i
widely used beverage in the world. ■
Its importation into this country has
reached enormous proportions. New
Orleans is a close second to New York |
in number of bags received annually,
and these two ports almost monop- ■
olize the green coffee business of this
country. Roasters, and packers of
these two cities have an advantage
over those of the interior, in as much
as they have no expensive railroad
freight to pay on the heavy green I
coffee. There is a great difference |
in the coffee drunk in the North and
the South. In the North the coffee is j
roasted a light brown and is made
into a weak decoction resembling tea.
In the South the coffee is roasted a
rich, dark brown, which brews into
a rich, frothy liquid of pronounced ■
flavor and greater strength. Dealers '
all recognize the difference between ,
“Northern Roast” and “Southern i ।
Roast.” The best and lowest priced ;
prepared coffee for Southern people,
therefore, conies from New Orleans.
The most popular and satisfactory
brand is called Luzianne Coffee. It is '
a well known fact that this coffee has ' .
twice the strength of ordinary brands .
and is, therefore, very economical. .
Every enterprising grocer in the i
South has it for sale.

AND A WOMAN’S WORK
^^LYDTA E^pTnKHALI^
Nature and. a woman’s work com
bined have produced the grandest
■ remedy for woman’s ills that the
' world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days of
our grandmothers they relied upon
I the roots and herbs of the field to
| cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
I Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
' diseases that baffle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their pe
culiar ills, more potent and effica
cious than any combination of drugs,
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman’s ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 N.C. St.,
Louisiana, Mo., writes:
“ Complete restoration to health
means so much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women I am willing
to make my troubles public.
“For twelve years I had been suffer
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time I had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what I suffered, and at times I
could hardly walk. About two years
ago I wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
I followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re
stored health and strength. It is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women.”
What Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering women.
