Short Sermons FOR A Sunday Half-Hour
CHRISTS SUMMARY OF CONDUCT BY THE REV. AMOE R. WELLS. And he opened his mouth, and taught them saying, Blessed are the poor In spirit: for'’theirs Is the kingdem of heaven^—Matt, v, 2. The Sewnon on the Mount has weH been called the programme of Christianity. Looking over those three chapters of Matthew to gain a comprehensive view of Christ’s plan of life, the first feature that strikes the student is Ms splendid unselfishness. Self is barred from ft altogeth«,Tbe beatitudes are not for those that get, but for those that give. Christians are to be salt, giving out health; and light, spreading sunshine. Their treasure is not to be on earth, but in Heaven. They are to take no anxious thought about their food or clothing. They are not to resist evfl nor expect a return for good. They are even to love their enemies. They are to live in other's happiness. They are to find their reward In the joy of the world.
The next outstanding feature of this picture of the Ideal lite Is Its insistence upon Inward realities as opposed to outward shows. It is the pure tn heart that sees God, the poor in spirit and thp meek that Inherit Heaven and earth. Hunger after righteousness shall be satisfied, and there is a petition, but no promise, regarding material bread. The lustful thought is held equivalent to the foul deed; the angry word, to murder. Alms are to be In secret, prayer is not to be paraded on the street corners, fasting is to be hidden behind a smiling countenance. “Out of the heart,” our Lord insists, “are the issues of Itfe."
And yet with equal clearness a third feature of the picture stands out, namely, Its practical character. We are, what we are within; but we are known by our fruits, by the outward showing of what is within. Thia showing te inevitable,- but it is none the less essential. It is not hearing that wins HJs commendation. It is not saying "Lord, Lord,” or even prophesying and casting out devils, that gate an entrance Into the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is doing the will of the King of Heaven. And Christ’s directions are perfectly plain, straightforward, practical: be a peacemaker; swear not; give freely; love your enemies; forgive; do not worry; do not judge harshly; pray trustingly: These are His commands, uttered with absolute authority. It is a gospel for the daily life. If one begins at any point in this programme of Christianity, and begins sincerely, he will not end till he has passed through the entire experience of it. Being meek, being pure in heart, being a peacemaker, thirsting after righteousness, enduring persecution, loving one’s enemies, giving one’s self to the needs of the world —these all hang together. For any Christly deed one needs Christ, and all of Christ Therefore it matters nothing that the Sermon on the Mount is not systematic, nor is it necessary to study it in a systematic way. Read it, line by line, till you reach a point where your quickened conscience condemns you of disobedience. Then go forth and in the Master’s strength do in that one point the Master’s will. Thus at length, and only thus, will you make your own this discourse of the ages.
Sin and Social Reform.
In a recent noteworthy address, Mr. Frederick Bogers, the secretary of the National Committee of Organized Labor, laid great stress upon an Obstacle which frequently thwarts those who are working for the amelioration of social evita. To that barrier to progress in righteousness, which is no mere product of modern conditions or modern life, we did not hesitate to give Its plain name of sin. Theories of “imperfection" and "evotatkm" will not make it anything else than it is, though they may label it with finer titles. Mr. Rogers holds tha* What man was in the days of the Pharaohs, in the days of Homer, In the days of Christ, that in essentials be is today. * ♦ • The greatest enemy to social reform is individual atn, and no reform worth working for wfH ever come to any society which ignores or misunderstands that Wjonflnsi Christian.

WOMEN'S ACTIVITIES.
The day’s news shows women e» gaged in a variety of strenuous activities more associated with masculine than with feminine endeavor. A woman aviator rescued two men from drowning in the Delaware River, and another passed the severs qualifying tests on the Hempstead ayjatlon field and with the distinction of being the first of her sex to receive an air diploma. A girl polo-player by her good playing won a victory for hee team, and another swam the mile-and-a-quarter stretch from Bailey’s to Hazard’s Beach at Newport in 38 minutes. A New Jersey girl risked her life to save a girl ahum who had fallen into a cave, and a Newark wo man of a practical bent achieved local fame by laying her own sidewalk. Meantime women of more serious ideas have not been idle. One ha* given her sex a new prestige by winning at Paris the coveted Prix de Rome sos sculpture, and another ap pears before the public eye as examiner of mints and the highest salaried woman In the Government service. A Newport girl acted as counsel for he® chauffeur, arrested for speed-law violation; and have not women been sitting as Advisory Judges in the Tacoma courts? ....... . ....... From the polo field to a Judge’s seal is a far remove, but no wider than the range of feminine activities in the era of “emancipation.”
In the Egyptian department of the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art may be studied pictures and sculptured reliefs portraying th® princes of the House of Ramese® 3,000 years ago patronizing the dance® and dancers of that epoch along th® Great White Way of the Nile. Th® hieroglyphics on the obelisk and elsewhere take account of this devotion to the ancient muse Terpsichore. Now we are informed that the Russian dancers who in the last two season* have won such sensational popularity in both European and American capitals are actually presenting revival* of these steps, pantomimes and posturings that are as old as the Pyramid®, They are setting the hieroglyphics to music—-“converting a section of th® obelisk or a few yards of Luxor fries® Into the living poetry of motion.”
The sad plight of an old couple driven from the home they had given to their daughter is pitiful testimony to the heartlessness of children who are humored, petted and pampered into selfishness by indulgent parents. The daughter who turns her aged parents into the street is like the husband who borrows his wife’s girlhood savings and spends, them on other women. In each case the fault Is in fathers and mothers who permit their children to grow up selfish. Barents and wives who are tempted to sacrifice the little substance which guarantees their independence should beware. Love is blind, and there is danger in intrusting, common sense to a blind guide. Under the headline: "The name is a good one,” a writer in the Prague "Presse” says: : “The latest news from Stockholm leaves no doubt as to the award of at least a part of the Nobel Peape prize to Alfred Fried, the founder of the German Peace Society, and a writer for over twenty years on the subject of peace and disarmament Fried is only forty-seven years old. Some years ago an article on peace signed ‘Fried’ —German for peace—appeared in a magazine, in the same number of which there was an article op war by Gustav Krieger—warrior.”
Charitable associations in Frankfort, Germany, operate lodging houses, restaurants, eating rooms, canteens, etc., for the benefit of the poor. They are conducted on strictly business methods. Dinner —soup, meat, vegetables—4s provided for a fraction more than eight cents. Until the recent increase of prices for foodstuffs the meal was given for less than eight cents. Lodging is provided at from 38 to 60 cents a week. f
The new woman in China, Instead of following the example of her English and American sisters in railing against the tyranny of men, has revolted against her relatlons-in-law. One of the women’s clubs in Shanghai proclaims as its object “rebellion against mSther-ln-law.”
The proposition for a closed season for minnows may have a bearing on the supply of sardines. As “almost anything*’ is codfish that is marketed In dry salt, all small fish that are sold tn cans pass as sardines. The city of Breslau maintains club bouses for young people for sociability, amusement and other recreation, with playgrounds, reading rooms, assembly halls, shower baths, and so on. - We do not find it difficult in tho least to think of things that would bo more pleasant than being caught In an airship by a sixty-mils gate, .

Adorning a Tale.
In the “Autobiography" of Albeit Pell, that fine old English gentleman whose whole life was devoted to the reform of the English pooriaws and to the genes?} rtftinir and taiprev* meat of th? Wffltfon. mochi, sochf and potttfoai, of the English agifeub torsi laborer, it is related that one of the first well-known men whom he met as a small boy was Wilberforce, who used to stay with his father, Sir Albert Pell, tn the country. When one of Pell's friends was an infant in arms, his nurse was wept by an election mob to the very foot of the York hustings at a famous contest for the county in which Wlß'erforce was one of the principal actors. With all the earnestness and vigor which distinguished him he was pressing his beneftcient views on the abolition of slavery. Carried away by the depths of Ms convictions and enthusiastic inspiration, he reached over the balcony, and snatching the baby from the arms of its astonished nurse, held It up over his head in the face of the e*claiming: “See this and hear my peophecyi Before this chDd dies there will not be a white man in the world owning a slave.” My friend, adds Mr. PeH, survived the Civil War In the United States, and virtually Wilberforce's propbocy was fulfilled. ,
