Rer." Benjamin Young. D. D., pastor of

and hit text "was t Cor. v:4. "Let

v "The evolutionary philosophy has
tmade us acquainted with such words as
law. 'species' and types.' Natural scl
, ence emphasises certain ideals or types.
' From the tlms of - Cuvler. the animal
'kingdom has been divided In a similar
' rnsuner. ' jnanxina is tnui oiucreniioKu.
Not only In ths biological realm do ws
meet with these forms but also in the
moral domain. Different oharacterlctles
attach to different men and make possl
ble our classification. We Bpeak of the
stole or of the epicurean, meaning- tnere
' by a type of character. Morally the
' race comes under many kinds of types,
j To appreciate this It is but necessary to
.- compare the orient with the Occident or
pagan with Christian civilization.
Progress comes through the destruc.
; tion and evolution of type. In certain
parts, of the west are great fossil beds
from which scientists bavs dug many
strange petrified forms of pre-historic
f life. These huge bones and uncouth
skeletons which have been uncovered
"speak volumes as to life and environ
ment in by-gone ages. In strength and
bulk there-la an apparent superiority
over the forms of later ages, yet In
reality they represent Inferior types.
The mere ponderosity shows the lack of
brain power and delicate mechanism, the
; concomitants of high intelligence. The
' past is strewn with dead and useless
types. That there was purpose in their
existence cannot be doubted; nelthercan
ws question the evidence of plan re-

behind and nature has dug their sepul
chres and performe4 their funeral ob-
lnoveruent upward toward man. Ths
Bible and science unite In the affirma
tion that it costs something to make a
man. Man represents something more
' than a mere waste of mud. Tennyson
says, 'Men may rise on ths stepping
stones of their dead selves to higher
things.' Nature has risen on stepping
stones of her dead typ to higher
things. There la such a thing as the
ascent of man.' -
Moral Types Improve.
"If you- will notice the history of
Israel you will see how truly this has
been the order of development. Some
things were permitted in the infancy of
Israel which could not be tolerated in
J the more mature life of tha nation, be
cause of the hardness of their hearts

Moral types continually improve and
become mora rigid. Jesus Christ is the

One' of the most Interesting sermons
delivered yesterday In " the Portland
churches was that of Rev.. J. Whltcomb
Brougher at " the White Temple. -.His
theme was "The Golderl Rule Applied."
upon which Dr., Brougher dwelt to the
effect that much of the strife between
labor and capital is due to a misunder
standing of tha motives and miscon
struction of the actions and words of
each other.--. Dr. Brougher favors clos
ing stores at noon Saturdays ana eariyi
in the. eveninv throughout the weekX
Hl icrmon in n&rt follows; .
-Most or me anncuuies xoaay- Be
tween labor and capital, employer ana
employe come through misjudging one
another, simply because motives ' are
misunderstood and words and actions
are misconstrued. I heard a young
workman say the other oay; 'At one
time I thought mv employer a fiend In
carnate, but when I became thoroughly
acquainted ,wltn 1119 man ana under
stood fullv all the circumstances con.
nected with his life and -work I found
lie was a. Christian gentleman.' If the
golden rule were "brctlcedVr w-would
seek to know each other better sad
cease to pass harsh,' unkind, cruel and
Injurious criticisms upon each other.
- "Application ot the golden rul j would
lead to a higher appreciation of man
hood and womanhood.' 'This would be
especially true as respects employer and
employe. rune-wouia. respect 'no man
hood of, the other.. Capital too often
looks upon ths laborer as a machine.
and not as a man. It consider him a
hand,' without any thought of hie soul.
Let the golden - rule be pra:tleed and
character would be placed above ash.
The laboring man of . character would
he given the recognition that character
demands.'-. He would be the equal in
manhood tof the capitalist of eharacter.
He would be the superior of a capitalist
who lacked the equalities f a manly
character. The laborer is a man, and
labor .la . something more than-a com
modity. .. There must be a mutual rec
ognition on the part of labor and capi
tal of the true value of character. Many
a manufacturer gives greater care to
his machinery than he does to hie men.
If you break machinery you will have
to pay for repairs, but If you break the
hearte ot men van can get more men
for nothing. The o-oldun rule would
lead us to put the stmt value upon the
souls and bodies of other men snd
women that ws want them to put upon
ours." -' ,

"The betrayal of Christ does not be
long to that day. In similar strains

What a low, coarse type of character
this Isl That type means the stifling
of the voice of conscience and the
blackening of the soul- with all the
blackness of the pit. 'Take heed ana De

Two Prominent Types.
"There is the pessimlstio type. Hs Is
a man who la alwaya expecting trouble.
He is. alwaya busy picking flaws in
things. He has quite a taste for that
which Is unsymmetrlcal and awry. He-
sees the mauormationa in nature There
is no beauty -in lif s - for him.- Every
thing is bad and there is never a song
in his heart. The prayer-bells never ring
in nis soui. . aa never starts on a jour
ney on Friday. He knows the omen for
every day. -He knowa a good deal about
rain and can tell you the sign for the

enough we all know, so may 1 the Lord
deliver us from the vicious, mean and
selfish pessimist -
"To be able to see the beauty of life,
to revel In Its glory, to catch the In
spirations which abound on every hand,
to open the heart to the sunshine, to
breathe the atmosphere of hope, to be
lieve In the upward tendency of things
and to have faith in God and some con
fidence In man that means much to any
man. May we covet this type. Gt In

'Back to tha Tower of FUhM." vn
the burden of a speech made last nlarht
at th First Presbyterian church, by Its
pastor. Dr William Hiram fc'oulkes,
'Tangled Tongues; Babel or Pentecost."
was tne auDject of Dr. irouikes' talk.
He referred to the heresies advocated
by present day members of the Apos
tolic faith ks a counterpart of the con
fused promulgation of the historic
tower. Dr. Foulkes said In part:
"I take my ttwrne tonight f rosa a
small but vlgoroua sect called the "Tan-
?led Tongues," who are not content to
ollow In the usual way to obtain sal
vation, but who go into spiritual ecata
clea over their religion. They have an
idea that ' In doing this they are being
fitted to be missionaries. A number of
them have been sent across the water

their ravings, would. te intelligible to

FORM BOYS CHARACTER.
Fundamental Truths Mast Be Taught
In the Home.
Rev. J.'T." Ghormlev In his sermon
at the Central Christian church last
night emphasised the necessity of form.
lng the character of bovs in the home.
and the unwisdom of depending upon
legislative' enactment " to bring about
great 'moral reforms. At the aame
time, ne saia, tlie ciusen has a duty
to perform as a cart of the state In
securing tne nest possible laws.
. Environment is largely determined by
the state, said the speaker, and this Is
a. queaiion mvoivea in tne coming elec
tion. That the- saloon is a national
blight and crime is settled, and to make
the environment of the boys what it
