If geologist* are right—and I believe they are—there has not been a moment oi alienee since this world began it* travels, and tbe craahing and tbe splitting and the uproar and the hubbnb are ever in pm grew. But when among the ropemala a voice cried. ‘Hiuh'" and for halfau hour heaven wa* sullmilencc was honored. The full power of Wcr.cc many of us have yet to learn. We are told that when Christ was arraigned “He answered not a word.’’ That silence waa louder than anv thunder that ever shook the world. Oftentimes when we are asiajed and misre presen tea th* mightiest thing to say is to say nothing, and tbe mightiest thing to do is to do nothing. Those people who are always rushing into print to get themselves set right accomplish nothing but their own chagrin. Silence! Do right and leave the result, with God. Among tbe ‘ ‘

Among tbe grandest lessons the world has ever learned are tbe lessons of patience taught by those who endured uncomplainingly personal or domestic or political injustice- Stronger than any bitter or sarcastic or revehgeful

answer is the patient silence.

. The famous Dr. Morrison, of Chelsea, achieved as much by his silent patience as by hi* pen and tongue. He bad asthma that for twenty-five years brought him out of his couch at 2 o'clock each morning. In my text heaven spared thirty min- , utes, hut it will never again spare one minl Mt*. In worship in earthly churches where there are many to take part we have to counsel brevity, but bow will heaven get on rapidly enough to let one hundred and forty-four thousand get through each with hi* own story and then one hundred and forty-four million and then one hundred and forty-four bilHon and then one hundred and forty-four trill-
