He had baen sleeping in tha streets, but the services had touched bun and he came to Christ. He became an honored member of my own church. He was a professor of mathematics, and had been slam by the power of strong dnnk. It wa» my custom to hold • service every Sunday morning for men in that church, and one morning I told them that God had cast their sins as far from them aa the east from the west Then 1 tuned to this old professor and asked him if he cou.d tell me how far that was. He instinctively reached for his pencil and his note book, then suddenly burst into tears, saying, "It can't be measured.

It U possible for one to so constantly neglect God's appeals that after a while his heart will become like a stone. It is said that the little birds that build theu nest in the Trinity steeple scarcely lift their bead: when the chimes ring out, because they have become so accustomed to the ringing of the bells. An one may beso accustomed to Christ and Hu tbit he rosy hear it with perfect m-

Men decide to come to God by the way of reformation, or by the power of resolution, but this profits nothing, for reformation may touch the .present, and may possibly avail for the future, but it cannot touch the past. If a man is in your debt *1500 and comes to tell you that he lias decided never to go into debt again, you may tall him that he is making a fine resolution, but you will not tell him that hu good resolution pays

I said to them I can give you the secret of getting almost any amount of money, and their bees in-, stantly were a study, for the most of them were m prison for trying to get money in their own wav. But this is the secret I gave them. Take a piece of paper and write down npon it the amount of money

The wedding gown may be of silk, satin or crepe de Chine, these materials being appropriate ai this season, it should be high in tbe neck, and if made with a yoke of lace which may be detached It can be altered afterward for evening entertainments., One or two evening dresses might be desired, and If one is of | black net or lace It will be very useful.

An evening wrap would be necessary. Haveyou A plain, tailor-made cloth gown for b^otifni. * traveling, shopping and street wear; ' '
