M. Stearns. . . 1. "And as Jesus passed by He saw a man which was blind from hia birth." In Acts ill, 2", we see a man lame from his birth who was healed though Peter and John. Theeecases of Infirmity from birth are suggestive of the truth that we are all sinners by birth, by nature-the children pt wrath (Eph. iL 8). The oases of Infirmi ties which come after birth are suggestive of the after manifestations of the sin that W born In us. - ) : And . His dlsciDles asked Him lr Master, who did Bin, this man- or his parents, that he was born blind? . The reasoning of Job's friends is brought to mind "whoever perished being innocent," and many such like words (Job Iv, 7), but when the Lord summed up the matter He said that these men had not spoken of Him right things (Job xlil,' 7). While It is true that whatsoever a -ic an soweth that shall he also reap, yet we cannot judge from seeing one sick or suffering that therefore they are reaping from some sowing, for whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth, and if we endure chastening God dealeth with us as with sons (Heb. xll, 6, 7). . , ... , 8. Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned nor his parents, but- that the works of God should be made manifest in him." This man's blindness was not the suit of any special sin on the part of his parents. . This is what our. Lord says.f He aoes not say that his parents were not sin ners needing a Saviour, but He does say that this affliction of having a blind son was not a judgment upon Jthem, but rather an oocasion for God to be glorified. There are many nowadays who think that a blind or lame or sickly child Is an affllo tion upon the'parents for some ein against God. : : , v, " ,4 !'I must work the works of Him that sent Me while it Is day. The night oom eth when no man can work." A.-oarpen-. ter wants material on which to use his tools and show his skill, a doctor or a sur geon wants patients, and the worse or more hopeless the case the more credit to the physician for, bringing a cure and health. Our Lord'often repeats the truth that all His works are commanded by and wrought by. the Father who sent Him, and more than oncost., is written that as the Father Bent Him'so He sends us.- : It Is equally true that as- God wrought in Him so God works in us, for while we are com manded - to work we are also told in the aanie connection that it is God that work eth in us both to will and to do. It was His hand which-prepared all the good works we are to walk In. - - : 6. - "As long as I am In the world I am the light of the world." This is oft repeat-, (chapters 1, 4, 9; vlll, 12; xii, 46). And in the Sermon On the Mount He said to His disciples, "Ye are the light of the world." We must remember that the life is the light,' and the life is that which men see and read.

One of the northern Mehodiet Advocates has much contempt for tho -oW reivaltinethods of bis own church, including the class meet: ing and the 'mourner8 bench." It proposes instead "a spirit of con secrated ingenuity, of zealous in quiry, of holy zeal, which will de-' vise fresh methods of securing con versions; modern revival helps and appliances adapted to the spirit and life of' today." If the old were in use as formerly the things soughtjn this paragraph would be realized. Itis like talking of the higher Christian graces and sanc tified power without the "work of the Holy Spirit in the bou! in re generation and sanctification. It is astonishing to see a paper of the kind a pooh-poohing of the means that have proved-so wonderful in the Jast hundred aud fifty years in building up the Church of God and in leading so many immortal souls in, the way of life. But the new doctors propose new quackery and scoff at the long tried old remedies that cured houdreds of thousands f sufferers. .Some newthing is sought after, and the "old-time machinery," that is repudiated by that particular northern Advocate is sent into the lumber , room and new fads and new plans are resort ed to. . :And the old; song" -runs, "old time religion is good enough for me." That writer eays the old revival methods are - "obsolete," and out of touch and are not ."the to right means to be nsed." Perhaps Responsibility for .Wrong-Doiii. In the absence of other explana tion, it is generally assumed that some men are of & "criminal na ture." -that they inherit their crim inal proclivities, but this leaves out of account altogether the good men who go wrong, and they are not an inconsiderable number of those who engage the attention of the courts and of social scientists. The good man who goes wrong has not, so far as is known, inhejiWd more than fair to recogniza that the man may bare been tempted to his first offenses by IbB . neglect to maintain proper safeguards abnt bim such safeguards as auditors of accounts and eiaminera are sup- ! posed to proiJ.
