.of'hla investigations. The wisdom, good

neat and powcrof God are written in More-
glyphloo all over the earth and all over the
heaven. God grant thatwe may have un-
derstanding enough to decipher thorn.
Thine are Scripturnlpassages, like my text,
which need to be studied in the very preo-
cnco of the natural world.

Habakkuk says. “Then lookout my feet
llkohlnd's feet,” ,a paeaagowhlch means
nothing sure to the man that know-s that
the foot df‘t’he red deer, or bind, are pecul-
iarly constructed, so that they can walk
among slippery rocks without falling.
Knowing that fact, we undorfiomd that
when Habakkuk says, “Then makea't my
feet llko blud's foot,” he sets forth that
the Christian can well: amid the moat
dangeroua and slippery places without
falling. In Lamentations we read that,
"the daughter of my people is cruel, like
the ooh-lobes of the wilderness, ” a pas-
sage that hue no meaning save to the man
who knows that the ostrich leaves its egg
in the sand to be batched out by the sun,
and that the young ostrich goes forth an.
attended by any maternal kindness.

 

, Knowlngthls, the passage is significant,

"The daughter of my people is cruel, life
the ostriches of the wilderness. " .

Those know but little of the meaning of
the natural world who have looked at it
through the eyes of others, and from book
or canvas taken their impression. There
uro‘tome fmo so mobile that photogra-
phers cannot take them, and the face of no-
turo has such a flush and spurns and life
that no human description can gather
them. No one knows the pathos of a hlrd’s
voice unless he has sat at summer evening
tide at the edge of a wood and listened to
the cry of tho whippoorwlu.

Autumnal Glorloot

There is today more glory in one branch
of sumac than a painter could put on a
whole forest of maples. God hath struck
Into the autumnal lcuf a glance that none
see but those who come face to face—the
mountdn looking upon the man, and the
man looking upon the mountain.

For acveoal autumns l have made a tour
to the far west, and one autumn, about this
time, saw that which I shall never forget.
I huvc soon the nut-ammo! sketches of Crop-
sey and other skillful pencils, but that
week I saw a mgcont 2,000 miles long.
Lot artist stood back when God stretches
his canvas! A grander spectacle was never
kindled before mortal eyes. Along by the
rivers, and up and down the sides of the
great bills, and by the banks of the lakes
there was an indescribable mingling of
gold and orange and crimson and mafia-on,
now sobering into drab and maroon, new
flaming into solferlno and scarlet. Here
and there the trees looked as if just their
tips had blossomed into fire. In the morn-
ing light the forests secured as if they had
been truueflgured. and in the evening hous-
thcy lookcd us if the sunset bud burst and
dropped upon the leaves. In more seques-
tered spots, where the frosts had been blu-
dered in their work, we row the first kin~
dllng of the flames of color in a lowly «pr-lg;
then theyrusbcd up from bro'nch to brunch
until the glory of the Lord submerged the
forest. Here you would find u true just
making up its mlnd to change, and there
one looked as if, wounded atovel‘y pore, it
awed bathed ln carnage. Along the bunks
of Lake Huron there were bllls over which
there scoured pouring cataracts of fire,
teased up and down and every whither by
the rocks. Through come of the ravines
We now occasionally u foaming stream, as
though it were rushing to put out the con-
flagratlou. If at one end of the woods a
commanding tree would set up its crimson
lumber, the whole forest prepared to follow.
If God's urn of wlora were not lnflultc,
one ewump that I saw along the bloomed
would have cxbmmlcd it forever. It seem-
ed as if the son of dlvluo glory bud dnshed
its ourf’to tho tlptop of the Alloghuuioo.
and then it land come dripping down to

Most persons preaching from thin text
find only in lto vein of sadness. lilnd
that I have two atrluga to this gospel burp

so young no I am now." I look back to
'my childhood days and remember when in

er. Although mocblng foul-adore yearn-of

and say, “Ills place will never be taken. "
But neither the church nor the state will
sufler for it. There will be others to take
the places. When God takes one man
away, he has another right back of him.
God is so rich in resources that he could
spare 6,000 Summernelds and Sourine,
if there were so many. There will
be other leaves us‘ green, as exquisite-
ly valued. as gracefully etched, as well
polntcd. However prominent the place we
fill, our death will not jar the world. One
falling leaf does not shake the Adiron-
dacks. .A ship is not well manned unless
there bean extra supply of hands—some
Working on deck, some sound asleep in

world very well. There will be other sou-
men on deck when you and I are down in
the cabin sound asleep in the hammocks.

‘ ,The Bond Loaves.

Again. us with the leaves, we rude and
fall amid myrluds of others. One cannot
count the number of plumes which these
frosts are plucking from the hills. They
will strcw all the streams, they will drift
into the cover-us, they will softcn the wild
boost's hair and fill the cuglo’s eyrlc.

All the aisles of the {most will be cover-
ed with their carpet and the steps of the
hills glow with a wealth of color and shape
that will defy the looms of Axminster.
What urn could hold the ashes of all these
(lend loaves? Who could count the hosts
that burn on thisfuucrnl pyro of the moon-
talus?

So we die in concert. The clock that
strikes the hour of our going will sound
the going of many thousands. Keeping
step with the foot of those who curry us
out will be the trumpet hundreds doing
the some errand. Ilotwccu 50 and 70 poo-
plo every day lie down in Greenwood. 'l'but

to the man at the gate, "Then, if there are
so many here, you must have the largest
cemetery. " He said there were two Roman
Catholic cemeteries in the city ouch of
which had more than this. We are all dy-
ing. London and Peking are not the groin;
cities of the world. The grave is the great
city. It hath mightier population, longer

If, lo the movement of time, some grout
question between the living and the dead
should be put and God called up all the
dead and the living to decide it, as we lift-
cd our hands, and from all the routing
places of tho dcud they lifted their bonds,
the dead would outvote us. Why, the mul-

Lastly, us the leaves fade and, full only
to rise, so do we. All this golden shower

It would be a horrible consideration to
think that our bodies were always to lie in
the ground. However beautiful the flow-
ers you plant there, we do not want to
make our everlasting residence in ouch a
place. '

I have with these eyes soon so nanny of
the glories of the natural world and the
radiant faces of my friends, that I do not
want to think that when I close them in
death I shall never open them again. It is
and enough to have a hand or foot umpu‘

had his band taken 03, he sold, “Goodby,
dear ‘old band, you have done me a great
deal of good service,” and burst lute mars.

“You can see lots of human nature in u
jewelers," remarked the mun who was ur-
mnging a tray of gems in the window so
as to give them their greatest ulluroment.
”One of the things I have noticed is thut
most people dislike to depend on their own
judgment. They don't appreciate any-
thing until they know its value."

Just then u young man came in and
asked to see some rings. He was not long
in muklng a selection, and, pulling out a
roll of notes, he asked the price.

“ Flvc pounds, " replied the jeweler.

The young anon put the money back
into his pocket.

“Is that all?” be inquired regretfully.

“You. I wouldn‘t be justified in charg-
ing any more. But it’s a handsome
ring. "

“ Five pounds doesn‘t seem enough to pay
for 1: ring for this young lady," the youth
rmunrkcd. “’l‘lmt's a pretty ring. and I
