' Tbelr lot wa* anything hot pleasant their safety anything bnt assured. The Christians of those early days were commonly accused of being disturbers, innovators, mischief-makers, of being lawbreakers and traitors to Oseasr, of being atheists and blasphemers of the popular idolatry. Because tbe popular hatred of them they were compelled to meet secretly, to exclude outsiders from their plawl of worship, and this led to reports that they, indulged In wild, obscene orgies. Because of the phrase "drinking of the precious blood' used in connection with tbe common ton service, it was said that they killed Infants abd drank their blood In their private assemblies. They were under constant suspicion and sorvelllsnce. Their enemies were ever on the alert seeking to discover faults sod Inconstotendeo, to uncover them In some wrongdoing. Bt Peter hopes and believes that this close observation of the Uvea of the follower* of Christ may lead to the undeceiving of their enemies ss to tbelr true character, and that from this, better understanding there may come s disposition to investigate, to come closer, and, finally to embrace their holy religion.

We oftentimes have do with Christians wbo sre curt, crusty, severe, unkind and disagreeable In word and manner. We should not be surprized to hear the remark, and we cannot but aympathlze with It when made with reference to such cases: "If thto be Christianity, I pray thee have me excused. I want none of

It."

In order to do oar part there unis', be not merely a refraining from wbat to unbecoming and contrary to tbe Christian profess!01,. but there must be s positive showing and shining forth lu kindness and love of the divine life we feel within. Not only correct live*, bnt beautiful deeds. In accounting for what had Impressed and convinced and converted tbe world we must give high rank to beautiful deeds. Tbe history of the Chrtotton Church literally tc^ms with them. When tbe pagans deserted their near relations In a plague end left the afflicted ones to die like dogs. Christians came and ministered to tbe sick rod dying. When the pagans left tbelr dead unburied after a battle and cast tbelr wounded Into the street*, the Christians hastened to relieve tbe suffering and give the corpses decent Interment. We have had some very conspicuous and very sad examples recently of men Ugh In position and the confidence of the community, placed there largely because they were Christian In name and by connection, proving themselves to be utterly deficient In such a fundamental and necessary virtue ss common everyday honesty. Bank presidents and cashiers and even boards of directors have not hesitated to speculate with other people's money Intimated to their keeping and they hare been found out only because they bad lost all they could beg. borrow and steal.

He Intimates that tbe temptation to double dealing to such k case to hard to resist. Why If the Impression becomes general that a Christian is not to be trusted. Instead of breaking down the prejudice that exists to evil minds against Christianity snd the church.
