The Fruit of Faith By Rev. James M. day, D. D. Daw el Meed, Bill Isaaam, Cekase TEXT Therefore belna Justlded by faith, wa have peace with God through our lArd, Jeaua Christ. By whom also wa hava screes by faith Into this arace wherein we stand, and re joice In hope of tha alory of Qod. And not only so, but wa alory In tribu lations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience. And patience, experience; and experi ence, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed: be cause the love of God la shed abroad In our hearts By the Holy Ghost which Is given unto us. Romans 1:1-11. I. The first fruit of faith is justifi cation, which means not only that the ' believer la forgiven of his sins, but that ha Is regarded In Ood'a sight aa though he bad never sinned. Captain Dreyfua, the French officer, waa pardoned by tha president ot the French repub lic, and aet at lib erty, but ha sought another trial In oraer to secure Justifica tion in the eyea of France and the whole world. He demanded it, however, on the ground of his Innocence, while tho Christian believer receives It aa an act of free grace' on the ground of Christ's work in his behalf. Peace With God and the Peace of Qod. II. "Being justified by faith, there fore, we have peace with God." Tbla Is the second fruit ot faith. The apos tle doea not aay we have the peace "of" Ood. The one la condition, the other an experience of that condition. The moment a man accepta Jeaua Christ aa Ma Saviour, he comes into a state of peace with God, where all enmity is put away, and be is no long er abiding under wrath or condemna tion for his sin. It may take him some time to realise or apprehend thla through the wes.kness of his faith, but It Is a fact nevertheless, and the sooner be graspa It by faith, the soon er will he come to experience it, and know the peace of God which passetb all understanding. III. But as the remit of being justl ded, the believed not only has peace with God, but "access" unto God, as the apoetle says. Sometimes when we "make up" with a man after being at variance with him, wo try neverthe less to keep him at arm's length. Not so in the case of God's reconciliation to ua. Ho permits ua to come Into the closest friendship and fellowship with him In Christ. Reasons for Rejoicing. IV. And not only have we acceas, but "rejoicing." There are three thtnga for the believer to rejoice In. In the first place, be rejoices "in the hope of glory."1 That la, In the hope of seeing God'a glory In the face ot Jesus Christ when he shall be re vealed again, and the hope of enter ing Into that glory and partaking of It as one of the redeeiped ones. In the second place, be rejoices "In tribulations also," because a the apos tle teaches, the tribulation through which a Christian passes enlarges his experience of God . aa hia comforter and deliverer; This experience assures him ot God'a love for him and contrlbutea to the quickening and atrengthening of his hope concerning the greater com fort and deliverance that Is to come, t am a millionaire and promise you a hundred thousand dollars at a certain time, and also promise to help you out of every financial crista which may overtake you In the meantime. Now such financial crises come to be re garded by you aa blessings In dis guise If I keep my promise every time. In other words, the fulfillment of the minor promise on each occa sion furnishes an additional evidence of the ultimate fulfillment of the ma jor one.. This is the meaning here. V. Finally, the true believer comes to rejoice In God himself, for to the verses of onr text we may add the thought of verse 11, which teaches that truth. Thla Is the acme of the ex perience of the justified state, when we ara no longer occupied with the gifts, but the giver. Tho love of God (or us is so shed abroad In our hearts aa more and more we trust In him, that we ara no longer absorbed In the blessings he bestowa so much aa w are absorbed In him. We come to love him at laat not for what he gives hut for what he Is. These are some of the blessed fruits ot our faith In Jesus Christ Who would not covet them If they are realT Who would not dealre to be right with God, to be at peace with him, to have conscious access unto him, to rejoice in relationship with him every dayf But why not try If they are real? Why not "taste and see that the Lord la good?" Why not In the quiet of your heart just now, ! receive Jesus Christ aa your Saviour, and aak God to 'give you his Holy Spirit to make these things real t Cod will hear this prayer aa you keep asking him, for ho lovea and wants to bless you in his Son. , Love for the Brethren. Our real spiritual attitude toward our brethren - always pre-arrangea God's attitude toward us. "Whatso. ever ye do to the least of these, ye do It unto me," said Jaeua. Onr vol, untary relationship to our brother la our relationship to Jesus Christ; and our relationship to Christ Is God's re lationship to us. We have no divine license to harm our earthly broths:, or add one sorrow to bis Ufa, or throw one shadow on bla path unnecessarily If men are mean enough to Impart unnecessary pain, and feel . pleasurs at beholding the pain or another, that fact ia proof ot their depravity la nature and extent ALCOHOL CAUSE OF DISEASE Doea Mora Than Anything Else to Render People Incapable of With standing Many Ilia. One of the many prominent physi cians and chemists who ara now wont to take opportunity to frequently pronounce against the use ot alcoholic drink la Dr. O. Sims Woodhead. pro fessor of . pathology at Cambridge university, England. Dr. Woodhead's latest summing up la clear and strik ing, and Is set forth aa follows: "Alcohol Is perhapa tbe most Im portant factor In the production ot disease. It does more than anything else to render people Incapable ot withstanding disease. Alcohol pre pares tbe human body for the attacks ot disease, Just as did the extreme heat of tbe past season, tbe strsw for the engine spark to aet on lire. It can be proved that alcohol taken In comparatively small quantltlea Inter feres with the blood. It alters the Holds very slightly Indeed, but certsln substances become lesa active and are unable to do their work so well aa usual. Tbe fight between disease and these substances becomes unfair, the germs make use or their opportuni ties. Invade the body and aet up dis ease. Take, for Instance, tbe scoursgs of tuberculosis. During tbe last ten yeara tho death rate from consump tion haa been declining. In London the decline was 19 per cent; In Paris S per cent It Is significant In regard to these figures thst In this country (Great Britain) the drink bill has during the same period dropped from 122.30 per head of the population to $16.65 per bead, whereas In Frsnce It is very different In this country with the decline of the consumption of al cohol has come a lower death rate from tuberculosis. We do not say this waa tbe aole cause, but we do remark that the two things have gone on to gether. Better bousing, clothing, education, feeding, and conditions of life generally have had a great deal to do with tbe fall In the death rate. At the bottom of all, however, we have the gradual diminution In tbe amount of money spent on drink. This la a tremendous gain to the nation. "We, aa medical men, have to do all we can to point out to the people that there la a very direct connection between tuberculosis and the amount of alcohol consumed. To get rid of tuberculosis, we must of course, get rid of the tubercle bacillus. The ba cillus can only do Ita work when placed In favorable conditions, and al cohol baa the faculty of tilling and preparing the ground for Its growth. Were no alcohol in tbe soil, the bacil lus would fall on very atony ground. By taking alcohol tbe human being renders himself more open to attack by diseases of varloua kinds, and Im pairs bla faculties often to a slight de gree, but sufficient to Interfere with his powers of doing good work. Alco hol we are satisfied Is tbe doctor's worst friend because tbe doctor wants to get his patients well. The total ab stainer will get well more quickly than If he takes alcohol, and a great many doctora believe It now. Mora are coming to believe It every day." GREATEST CURSE OF THE AGE Rev, Father McCory Makea Strong Arraignment of Rum Traffic Standa With Majority. "I arraign tbe rum traffic aa the greatest curse the age baa known. Its pallor la on our nation and Ita blight Is everywhere...': "Too may ask where do I stand. Tou have a right to know. "Creep up close to tbe heart of God, who hatea every evil thing. . Ask him where be standa, and put me down on that aide. "Or If that la too much trouble, go to the poor, pale-faced woman, tbe ragged and half-starved children, the Innocent victims of the accursed traf fic , Ask them wbere they stand, and put me down there. : : "Or If that Is too much trouble, go out to your cemetery, and, creeping in among the gravea of tbe victims of the demon drink, ask yourself aa you contemplate their, ruin, where In the name of all that la holy, a man should stand. When you have your answer, put mo down there, "I stand here , tonight giving no quarter and aaklng none, conaclous that I am sustained by Heaven, . en dorsed by every good woman and ev ery honeat man. But if 1 ahould stand alone here, I aball atand, conscious that one with Ood la a majority." Rev. Father McCory. Alcohol la Injurious. Prof. G. Slma Woodhead, M. A., M. D., Cambridge, says: "I believe that every man and every woman, no matter whether he or she be healthy or unhealthy, is better of abstinence from tbe use of alcohol aa a beverage. A man who haa tb do. brain work pt any, kind cannot do hia best If he takes alcohol. It waa my experience, and I believe it la the experience of others, that a man who doea not take alcohol -la alwaya In better training for athletlca, other things being equal, tin the man who takes alcohol." Sclentlflo Conclusions. Prof. 81ms Woodhead, In "Scientific Conclusions." speaks of alcohol's "power of repelling the leucocytes, the white cells ot the blood, the police men and acavengera of the blood, and so helping to drive them away from pua-formlng organisms that may make their way Into tbe body;" and, more over, tella na that "the child of an al coholic mother must come Into tho world with an enormously diminished Immunity to disease."

SKIJ.Erta. Director of Even ln Department, The Moody Bible In stitute of Chleago.) LESSON FOR APRIL 14. .... i THE Una OF THE SABBATH. MCBRON TEXT Mark l:M to t:a (lOLl)KN TEXT "The Batibath was made for man and not man (or tho Bab- bath,"-Mark 1X1. That the Christian Sabbath la to be a Boon and not to be a Burden la tbe gist of the teaching of Jesua upon that subject. For what Is tbe Sabbath aet aalde and to what use shall we put the time thus set aside, are and have been through the years very live questions. That God had so ciological, physical reasons for setting aside one day In seven as a day of rest and recreation has led some to advocate what we know aa a "Con tinental Sunday" one grven over to pleasure, games, . sports, auto rldea, drives, etc., and an over emphasla upon tbe fact that God meant us not. only to test but also that he "hal lowed it," has given us the Puritani cal observance that Is akin to a wor ship of thla aeventh day. Which la right T - As we study these two Incidents in the life of our Lord, the plucking of the gralrl and tbe healing of the with ered band, both of which occurred upon the Sabbath, we can surely find guidance as to what shall be our ob servance of thla day. These two events, and the principles that un derlie are ot sufficient Importance as to be recorded In all three of the synoptic gospels. Let us look at the first . Passing through tho Held the hungry disci ples plucked some of tbe ripened grain, and sifting it In their bands, tbey ate it to supply their hunger. Mind, there waa no reaping and gath ering into bams for tha profit of the owner, but simply the gathering of sufficient to relieve the needs of tbe moment The ancient Jew waa cum bered with a- ceremonial observance that was oppressive, yet their own priests In tbe temple performed the necessary daily duties and were held guiltless; and the great David had once entered that holy place and taken of the ahew bread from off the altar and not only ate himself but gave to tboae who were with him. So it is that the life ot a manw la of greater Importance than the punctili ous observance of tbe Sabbath day. How Jesua Spent Sabbath. Passing on, Jaaus enters the syna gague and there found a man having a withered hand. Again the ever watchful PhaHsees observed him "that they might accuse htm." Jesus, knowing their growing antag onism, their attitude of distrust takes advantage of the helplessness of the man to teach these Pharisees the les son of obedience yes for once in scorn he rebukes tbem; snger and grief struggled in the heart of Jesus aa he commands the sick man to stretch forth his hand, and with the command went power so that the man stretched forth his hand reatored to its full strength and usefulness. Is It lawful to do good or to do harm, to save a life or to kill on the Sab bath? Once again Jesus takes the law from ita outward application and reveala the spirit the heart motive that must apply it wa are to truly love and serve Ood. Is It not sufficient that aln makea strange bed fellows, as for Instance, the Pharlseea consorting with the Herodlans, two parties aa opposite as possible and bitter in their antagon ism, taking counsel how they may destroy- thia young Galilean. The fact waa the disciples had violated no law of God, but an ordinance of man, and it has always been that we are more jealous of such than to really know tbe spirit of God's commands, and thereby to govern our actions. What irony of Jesus' tones as he asked them "did ye never. read?" The complaint of a Puritanical Sabbath was never raised, by one who has a loving familiarity with the Word of God God. gave us the Sabbath, It did not come by accident The heart hun gers to know him and ita demand Is for time to worship and to serve him. It is only those whose hearts are blinded by the God of this world who swing to the opposite extreme. God will surely reckon with those corporations and individuals who de mand, aa ahown by the social surveys of some of the steel towns, for Illus tration, aeven days labor each week, or who In their Individual Uvea are so engrossed in business and In pleasure as to deaden and starve their aoula, which are all the time crying out for God..- - : V'....; Jesus' anger waa at the hardness, and hia compassion for this hardness bf the hearts of tha Pharisees. Let us avoid the wrath and be Subject to the compassionate pity of God. Last Sunday we studied the resurrection of our Lord. Let us remember thst tho Christian Sabbath is a weekly remind er of that great fact . . : Prlnclplea Make Christiana. Rules make Pharlseea, principles make Christiana. It la not "thus aalth the priest or the council,", that Is to govern our actions, for that method haa alwaya aerved to deaden our con science, hence It is that Jeaus aald, I desire . not sacrifice but mercy. My kingdom is not to become a burden) I came to free men from the burfeo ot ceremonial observance, t desire mercy, therefore, if whenever tbe op portunity cornea for you to exercise the principles of true religion, to visit tho sick, to relieve the widows and the fatherless, to relieve human need, to direct men'a tboughta to mo In wor ship, if It be Sunday or not, ydu ought to do It In glad recognition that tho Son ot Man came not to be mTnla tered unto but to minister. Church members will have a good deal to an swer for In lending support to open thops, and extra labor . upon trans--wrtatinn facilities on tbe Sabatb lay. - ;'''.

Because, Willie, the chicken don't know how to create a hard-shelled egg unless it has some food with lime in it So chicken-raisers often provide limestone gravel, broken oyster shells or some other form of lime. Let the chicken wander free and it finds its own food and behaves sensibly. Shut it up and feed stuff lacking lime and the eggs are soft-shelled. Let's step from chickens to human beings. Why is a child "backward" and why does a man or woman have nervous pros tration or brain-fag? There may be a variety of reasons but one thing is certain. If the food is deficient in Phosphate of Potash the gray matter in the nerve cen tres and brain cannot be rebuilt each day to make good the cells broken down by the activities of yesterday. Phosphate of Potash is the most important element Nature ' demands to ; unite albumin and water to make gray matter. Grape-NuU food is heavy in Phosphate of Potash in a digestible form.
