K Disciple of Jesus Christ The
President's borne life was Ideal, nnd hla
loyalty as n disciple of Jegds Christ was,
notable Itev. D. McLeod, I'resbytcrt
an, Washington, D. C.
'A Christian. Above all, SIcKlnley
was a Christian, exemplifying In hi
dally life the sublime power and excel-,
lency of tbe principles of Christianity,
Rev. Dr. Chapman, Methodist, Wash
ington, D. C.
McKlnley's Deathbed. Tbo hcrole
spectacle of that Christian deathbed Is
an example for all tlmo of bow a Chris
tian man may meet tbo Issues ot life
and death. Her. C. J. Young. Puritan,
New York City.
Truo to All. He Is dead, but he live
In the Uvea and In tbe hearts of all de
cent people as a man who was truo to
his God, his country nnd to nis man
hood. IteT. a L. Twlng, Episcopa
lian, Brooklyn, N Y.
Anarchy I Atheism. Tbo slmplo
truth Is this, anarchy is atheism. It Is
the denial of any overruling Providence
and the refusal to rccognlzo anjr God
whose' will la law. Itcv. Dr. Hunting
ton. Episcopalian, New York City.
Order and Civilization. The doctrno
that humanity could exist, that order
and civilization could bo malutalued
without law nnd order, ns the disci
ples of anarchy assert. Is one of tho
wildest notions. Rev. Dr. Dracbman,
RabbL New York City.
Unselfish Service. To know Christ
and Christianity Is to have tbo vision
extended and tbe Insight deepened nnd
to have selfishness extracted from tbe
work of life. Unselfish service Is the
Master's example. Rev. Dr. Moore,
Methodist, San Antonio, Tex.
A Gospel Force. Whatever makes
character, whatever works brotberll-
ness, whatever develops strength, la a
gospel force, conscious or unconscious.
The forces that work consciously for
good are too many to name. Hov. Dr.
McAfee, Presbyterian, Chicago, I1L
Loyalty. The Christian should show
bis loyalty for what the church stands.
Let him show that bis religion Is not
for one day, but for tho seven days in
the week. Tho world Is ready to listen
to religion of the heart. Itev. t'nnnlo
Austin, Unlversallst, North Dona,
Mass.
Christianity. Christianity la a life.
and the consequent Christian life Is its
unanswerable argument. Tho church
to-day Is weak because thero Is so lit
tle difference between tho lives of Its
members and the lives of those who are
not members. Rev. J. W. Allen. First
Christian Church, Chicago, III.
A National Grief. Thero is n nation
al grief, nnd there must needs be a un-
tlonal lesson. What Is tins uoruo
which finds n harbor among us, nnd
who, to further their own principles
and Ideas, strike at the Inuocout ami
lay them low? Tbey are n class with
diseased minds, on evil bent. Rev. R.
M. Kemp, Episcopalian, Now York
City.
Tbe Price of Disobedience.
In oue of tho campaigns Frederick
tbe Great of Prussia,, to prevent bis
whereabouts from being betrayed to
tho enemy, ordered all lights to be ex
tinguished at u certain hour. The pen
alty of disobedience was to be death.
The king occasionally passed through
the camp at night to nscertnln wheth
er his order was strictly attended to.
Ouo night ho observed a light In one
of tlfu tents, and on entering It, found
an ofilcer sitting at a tablo closing a
letter. Asked how he dared thus ills
regard the klug's command, tho olllccr
replied that ha had been writing a let
ter to bis wife.
The king ordered him to open Ms let
ter, to take bis pen, and to add these
j iufrn iblu Inline rnnrhoa vnne
i words: Beforo tuts letter rcaciits your
hands I shall have beru shot for diso
beying an order ef tho king."
