"But in the sight of God the differ ence Is vastly in favor of the former. It is full of love and life and charity. The other has a name to live and is dead.

Prayers of Thousands Aaked for Sueeesa of National Campaign. B1 ELIEVING in the power of old- fashioned prayer, the leaders of the Laymen's Missionary Movement are asking thousands of men and women to pray for the National missionary cam paign, which opens the first of Its 75 great conventions for men in Chicago on October 14. Individuals in private, families at their family altars, pastors in their pulpits, attendants at church prayer meetings and groups specially organized are requested to offer per sistent prayer for the campaign and ail who participate in It. The call to prayer, which has been issued, says the opportunities aa well as the difficulties of so great an un dertaking as the projected campaign of missionary inspiration and education, including the organization of 75 con ventions in the leading cities of the L'nited States, constitute an unusual challenge to the faith of Christian men.: Therefore prayer is regarded aa the1 going to disown it. "I k-iow thy jyorks. that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So be cause thou art lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, 1 will spew thee out of my mouth. And as "a living dog is better than a dead lion" so is a little church full of love and good works better than a great big cold church lacking every evidence of spiritual Hie. Yosis Republic Better Nation. 4. An Insignificant republic with free institutions and face towards the rising sun is better than an old. cruel, tyran ieal. outworn, oriest-rldden monarchy. whose greatness is all in the past and whose history for the centuries gone proclaims it the unchanging foe of liberty and . progress, tne malignant, enemv of the rights of man." There is some future for Cuba, for Porto Rico, for the Philippine islands. There is no future for Spain, tiha is a dead Hon, or lioness. I believe the work done by America in delivering the oppressed from Spain's withering grasp will stand out In his tory as one of the noblest and most un selfish political acts ever done on this earth. In behalf of civilization, freedom, and of humanity. I believe it will be applauded by the right-thinking and the right-feeling of every land and clime, and that posterity will award it the palm for purity and disinterestedness of motive and aim. New nations were born out of our little skirmish with Spain- New gov ernments, filled with, liberal ldeaa and most- important means of- preparation for the .hard workof the.campaign. Seven subjects for prayer include the campaign as a whole, the mission boards participating, cities in which conventions are to be held and the com mittees appointed to organize the con ventions, the convention speakers and the delegates to the conventions. An effort is to be made to obtain written pledges from large numbers of men in each of the 75 convention cities, as well as men In other parts of the country, to pray daily for the success of the campaign. A promise to pray, which is to be signed In duplicate, is part of the call tOi prayer which has been issued, the duplicate to be re turned to the mission board with which the signer Is affiliated or to the Lay men's Missionary movement.

Adn however weak and insignificant the down-trodden seem now to be, and incapable of self-government yet will we find that the future has In store a fresh demonstration that "a living dog is better than a dead lion." And who will deny that America, with its free public schools and churches, ita flourishing arts of civil ization, its lofty principles of freedom and- humanitarianistn, is better than European countries with their age worn customs, enslaved citizenship, antiquated militarism. - and crowned kings and queens trying to enforce by the sword the heathenish principle that "might makes right?" Their holocaust of war, if they don't watch out, will prove a prolific pro ducer of dead lions, if indeed, in some cases it has not even now done so. They are all mortally wounded.
