i 8 CHARLOTTE DAILY OESf AwER, OCTOBER 4, 1D03. OX -rV "rr rv AS IT-SEEMS-..fOME . . , 1 B1 A WUSOJTKR OF HOPE ! r , ' ' ' There - oomn - to ' the children ot ,. men somewhere between . the begin ning and the end,, on less these be set very near- together, - ' time ot awakening, it la when 'you ' ait own 'with your soul an 4 acknowledge your self hopelessly 'disappointed in the world.; Th la U not a Ht of the blue .. nor an attack ot hysteria. It ia a facing of naked facta.. To this stats sve are brought by a shock. These hocks 6 have many ; names, such a .'.'dispensations ot : .' (Providence. . "national afflictions," "unavoidable calamities." Names are ' nothing. We are thinking now of the 7: awakening aad the shock: that ; brought It about. To you it ia a tre- jnendrously important event; to the ' ethers It is one of many incidents. To you it is high tragedy; to the others It is a sort of serrlo-comlc situation. The term world means , so many things. The use wo have for It now is to express the manifestations ot hu r naa nature) and the relations ot these ' t us. Wo are not disappointed in the : splendid earth itself. That ia all right But the roeeole who make our world-r- :i't- mm IkAro1! H raKI It Mmt tA ma' that the trouble is quite simple in Its! (dingnOiis, but alas, how difficult In its I cure.. We do not know our world. We , are asleep in it till somehow the awakening comes. J There is no other heart-breaks : v v quite so hard to bear as bitter, hope . ' . less disappointment. To And out . In v :, .'' one evil hour that you were all wrong, " to realise your 'great need and to -.if -lnd nothing anywhere to supply It. This is 'When you think you have lost - . ; your faith in human, nature. You are disappointed In your friends, it Is for you an epoch making period. Tou feel as it you should like to go and sit out the seven doleful days with Job and his throe misguided friends. You positively envy the grand old poet'e l v neckcloth and ashes and covet his .. V privilege of sitting on the-ground and j walling out his woes after this ma 4 tilflcent fashion: i: '- ' "Oh, that t were as in months past, jA in the days when God preserved me; ' When his candle shtned upon my head. And when far his light I walked through darkness. Oh that my grief were thoroughly weigh d And my calamity laid In the balance to gether. for now would It be heavier than the sand of the sea." , ' That was Job's awakening. He went ,.- at his mourning with a splendid en ' orgy . and did it superbly. And through it he gave to the world a matchless poem. But you must grieve In modern fashion. This oriental ex travagance is denied you. There is nothing but the bare, naked fact taring at your soul. The world Is not i f . what you believed it to be. Tour friends are not what you thought they j ' were., Human nature ta a blank fail ure and living Is not worth while. - V Tou are not morbid, you are not bil lions, you are awake. Now It seems to ma that before this hour came you were dreaming. Tou were living in two worlds. One was ", this selfsame bare eld world of ac tual realities and naked facts, and ,' . . the other was a dreamland world of your own. In the one you lived stib - consciously, in the other consciously. , The world that you knew about aad ' ; " ' thought real was a mere mirage, a picture In the air. Tou peopled it with ideals aad gave to these the names f your friends. Suddenly this fairy land of yours vanished like Alad din's palace, and there you were, Uke the mystified Sultan In the nne - old story you rubbed your treacherous - ryes and looked again, in the agony ' of your great need you caught at the goodness and beauty that had alwajy oeen surocientiy suosianuai, out nom- lng 'was there.. The slender towers and terraced gardens were thin air, There was only the real world. In it ' you were not at home Its ways were hard and now. Ton .were a stranger, When yon needed what you thought - your friends had been, when all your heart went out toward thorn, there "was nothing to meet your want. Per haps you found yourself sobbing: e"My brethren have dealt as deceitfully as brooks And as the streams of brooks they pass away." The desolate loneliness of It! To . . meet the eyes that have been In them ' no understanding of your great need, to miss from familiar voices the ring , of sympathy that you expected, to re alise that your sorrow is only a pass- ' Ing cloud in the serene blue sky of - your friend. There is no one with you in this hour of desolation. They are tired ot your sorrow, wearried with your grief, unconscious of your agony, .' Indifferent to your disappointment. It is then that you eome to believe that -, those friends of yours are not worth 'While.. They have failed you. Their In terest has not held out Their sympa thy wa not large enough to extend v more than a little way along the ' turbulent current ot your distress. Again you envy the ancient Job who ; v &t and groaned with three friends to "-hear him. What a man be must have been to have retained so many! Three! 1 And where have you even one? To be ante the three together failed to un vv derstand, but they sat there. Tou find '- that nowadays they hardly do so ? much as that tiaugh and the world laughs with you, .'. (Veep and you weep alone." The woman who wrote those lines f ia very wide awake. She is a priestess 7 at me aitar ox common sense, a rare -. spirit wise In . the wisdom that Is Truth. But she, too, came to her gar - den ot sorrow even as you and I. She fought it out bravely without visi . t sackcloth and ashes, she made ' hr way from the Dark Places ; and J.- with clear bead and steady band she has marked out a route for all who follow. - :. - : - Tou believe that roar friends have ' ; failed. They are made ot commoner at off than you knew.-They are vn worthy the love lavished upon them. . The whole thing has fallen flat The people whom you had placed a little - lower than the angels are only a poor sort after all. There Is nothing worth while anymore. It seems to me that there Is danger of never getting any farther- than this. I am afraid that pernaps some of as atos lust at this ' juncture and, remain la the gall of bitterness sma the bond of iniquity to the horror and distress of the un fortunate beings whoso hard lot - is cast with ours. I can think t nothing more depressing , than one of these HOW IS YOCB PIGE8TIOX? Mrs. Wary Dowling, of No. 2 Eighth evenoe, aa Francisco,, recommends a jeiwdy fur stomach trouble. 6he says: ' Jratitud or the wondorful. effect of : ctric Is, (!' In a ease of acute tndiges 1 n. prompt : testimonial. I am fully . nvmced t. .-.t for stomach ' snd '.' llwer 1 Electric Bitters la the best'rem- 1 y on the r. srket to-day. This great r ar.d : j.iiv mediciue invigorates "m. : . the b)(Xd and is 1 ' n all lirmt of female) - : t W. U. J i and at I'o.'a I self -Just! fled pessimists." They are 'so Immovably secure in their convictions. But you aad I ho, I trust, are not quite hopelessly -settled in gloom. might bo able to think the matter over and come,, at last, to a rational I believe that no .thoughtful per son escapes this trrae .of awakening unless the thoughtful person,' being loved ot the goods, dies very young. It Is a sort ot settling down from a fools paradise of must exalted Ideals to a commonplace . . world . of stern reelltlea, Nothing la- so immovably un compromising as. a stern reality. We fairly quail before them. No wonder you are lost m despair. But without knowing it you have always lived In this same practical world, and your subconscious self Wars record of it. From your intellectual storehouse where much treasure lies hid from you,, there comes Into your conscious ness the lines of a grand old poem "The earth Is' the Lord's, and the fullness thereof. The world and they that dwell therein." The Lord's! This .world of hard facts, these people, these friends! And you had been ready to cast them off! Weak, selfish, unfriendly, vain and careless they certainly are. Tee. They are human. They are full or iauns and Inconsistencies, but along with you they belong to the Lord. They are really worth whilt. This is the thought that occupies you for a long time. And you ar one of them. One of these very same people. In nature and purpose you are precisely like them, just as one of the postoak leaves out side my window is like all the other postoak leaves In the world. To be sure no two leaves are ever alike In the little Irregularities that maka Identity. Bnt in the main they aro the same. We are all alike. That is the thought that startles ou If you aro alone in your dark place as I am sup posing you to be. Alike? Have I then neglected and hurt and wounded and failed the friends whom I should have comforted and helped and sustained T It is here that we need to be perfect ly honest. For we have not known our selves. We have always Kdmlred cer tain graces and , exalted certain vir tue and stood for certain principles. We have imagined ourselves possess ed of these qusllties. Every woman believes in herself. Every man has faith In something that he thinks he is. Perhaps we are not Just what we think wo are. Perhaps the ideal that you think is yourself Is not perfectly clear to other eyea. Mas your darling friend turned wearily from you now that you have no Joy to share? It may be so. And was there some one who needed you. some one you forgot to can upon. Some one you neglected when your path wag flower-strewn and the other set with thorn? I think bo. The hardest truth to get at Is the truth about yourself. We blunder all around It and never know. It is not easy to quiet self-love snd see right through self-deception and look squarely at the ugly facts. Of course we all speak Quito frankly of our imperfec tions and bewail our tendency to wrong-doing. But it I should single out a grave fault and say quite can didly. "My friend, that fault Is yours, take It home with) you." I should, not bo able to get you to touch it with on of your dainty finger. Tou would believe the fault to be one of mlna straying about. . or the next door neighbor's slipped ot of Its place: But I should know and your neighbor would know better. It is difficult to get the idea that we aro just exactly like the other peoole. Variety Is merely a matter of trimming. We are all alike. Some are a little more faithful, some a trifle more faithless. Some of us break the small commandments, fondly hoping that they were Inserted to make out the number, while others make a sort of wholesale wreck of both tablets. But It is aU the same In principle. We are just alike. The small differences are matters of environ ment. The man that is tempted too far sins no matter where he was when the tempter found him. It Is the test that tells. Most of us are never test ed. The primary instincts do not vary. When you ret this idea there IS a steading of head and heart If you are no better than the other people. It follows naturally that they are no more than you. That is sound logic, is it not? It Is just as true as truth. Tou have failed others as of ten as others have failed you. Con siderlng that you were better born than some, better taught than others. is there any reason why you should feel yourself to be more worthy than any who missed the help you had? Tou know that in all your weakness tliere has been a great central desire to do the best thing. It Is about this best thing that we make so many pitiful mistakes l hold It true that everybody wants to do the best thine. The troubleall comes of not knowing what Is the best. The people who have so early dis appointed you are constantly disap pointing one another and you are dis appointing tbem. It is a way we have, a little unpleasant human habit But each one of these provoking persona has "a heart A warm human heart Some of the hearts don't show much, to be sure. Heartlessnese Is sometimes a disease, sometimes most times, an affectation, it is a thins that you need not believe in. The heart is there hurt or hidden, perhaps, always there; and if you aro watching; It la wonder ful how they do 'hob up, now and then. Of course ws are vain and fool ish, poor thing. W don't really know any tetter. If some of txt can't keep up, the others are sorry, but they can't be hindered ia their going. .Too remember how easy It was-for you, to drop the friend whoso weight began to tire you. It is just as easy for your friends to drop you when you hang heavily, That is the sort of a world ! this is. Tt 4a human natttrev Cruel? Why. nor - ; It is time you began to stand alone. That is what la the matter. Ton have been nursed and tended long enough, Ion are being set to -tne real lesson of actual living.

Tou are living now In-a new world. It Is the kingdom of the heav ens Tou feel strangely at home and perfectly at ease. To see dimly, day by day, how human nature may be cured of its ills. Tou are coming Into harmony with 1 truth. Before, you were your own master. Tour own will was the beginning and the end of the law. Tou know better now. Tou have unlearned so much that yon are quite Ignorant and simple -and the beauty of the Sermon on the Mount la new and very wonderful. Little unkind neases do not . trouble you, but you learn from them to be kinder. An oversight that used to hurt you is harmless now; it helps you ... to , be more considerate. The lack of sym pathy does not distress you; It is only a reminder that you must bo gentler and more sympathetic. An Injury calls xortn no resentment you aro only more careful to be just and full ot charity. Tou ars not so much con demned about how others treat you. If only you may do to them as you would like to have them do to you. Simple? Tea, simple as sunshine and as vital. It Is everlasting life. This ruls of life applies to all sorts and conditions of men. It fits everywhere. If your life is shaped by it you are not alone nor afraid. Life la sweet and good and you set a strange new value upon yourself because the Master has need of you. This is not sentiment, it Is not emotion; it is not imagination. I am not at all concerned adout the name you give It Call It what you will, it Is a power as real as electric ity and as imDOsslbls tA oxnlaln. t is tne marvelous influence of a man who lived nearly two. thousand years aso. It is not like the Influence of any other prophet or -teacher. It la the wsy into the truth it ia the truth. It seems to me that we might be very simple and honest about thla It is not a matter Of fear: It ia admoly a choice of the test There Is nothing mysterious about It nothing difficult. It Is as natural as breathing, as simple as loving. It la not a matter of faith, but of positive fact Was your moth er's love a thing to be believed In merely? Was It not rather a great, warm, beautiful, vital power that you felt as you feel the warmth of the home fire? Was It not something that you knew as you know the that the day Is light ana fair? it was not a mysterious hidden thing to be found out by the timid searching -of a half-hearted faith. Neither is the love of Ood, and tnat is what we have come to if we have found the way out of the dark- ne. All the bare facts and stern realities and bitter disappointments nave taken on a new aoDearanoe, They have been set in nlace hr One Who knows. That Is enough. It Is all right. Four little simple words Ml the universe for you now. They fill your life and quiet your soul. Four little words, but they have In them all tne joy of heaven. They are heaven, Thy will be done. That Is all. If you are strong and full of cour age you want to master the situation alone. Tou have learned to bo a little ashamed oft what you call religious anairs. xou oon t believe very much in churches and sermons and what we call Christianity. Well, let all that go for what It Is worth. These things are all able to look after themselves. We are not going to bother about what we think about them. The queatlon ia a personal one. Tou want restored to you tne joy or living. I know a great teacner wno understood the secret of finding it. And I have told you. Tou nave neard it an before a thousand times. Perhaps you looked Upon it all aa a preparation for death. It seems to me that we need never be afraid to die. The thing Is to know what to do to-day, to find a cure for all that hurts us. And the cure is the rule ot living laid down by the One Who spake as never man spake! That la the secret COLLEGE BIBLE 1X8TITCTE. Third Annual Conference Convened at University Friday Night With Rev.
