In the text we have chosen for our con- sideration this morning we have the ex- pression of the line of thouizht, or be ter 4tlll, the line of feeling which had produc» ed in the religious section of the Jewish race. what has been well described as the “greatest revolution which the human mind had ever experienced," the revolu- tion by which man had come to consider or suspect himself to be Immortal.

This is the argument by which our Lord now meets the rutionallstlc Sadduceana and is in principle the same argument. which has made almost every thinker a believer in immortality.

Still as ever the tragedy of death In with us. henrt-brcnklng pitiless tragedy- Whilc from'tJre depths of desolatcd soult' anguished and bereaved of all tin-y cared for, rises amid the surging sen f sorrow and the vain strife of hope anr fear the old unanswered question: If a man dic shalllrcllvc arguinf In all other depart- ments of knowledge the thoughts of men have been widcncd by the process of thc ~uns until the world has been tr-arrsfornr ed, as it is today, into .1 veritable theatre of wonders. We turn however to the magnificent work of science in modern times. and from all her laboratories comes the universal declaration, “The grave is the goal of existence." “’3 consult the oracles of philosophy and with equivocal tongues they fuller. "There may be a life after [Hill] has thrown oil the muddy venture of decay."

llo'igiou however offers its supremo consoirtliuus llllii speaks forth her bones of a glorious resurrection in a life that In immortal. and human life rolls on as if thc tragedy of durth had never been llrrs the light wax or wnne upon God's more! Have we any certainty, or only the lengthening shadow over the sacred plnr-es \vhcro ourdend lie'f We stand In bill! presence of it great mystery where a r't-t'crultﬁiiclice is golden and where Wl‘ daw- not douurntise.

The light, however, that prompted the word, .“lle is not the God of the dead but the (ind of the living," which lifted out of -|r-spnir the pious Jew, is with us still. It. is not. the light, of science with its onlcu» lotion :rnd demonstration. It In from above—“the light that never was on sea or land." The sense of God bequeathed from the beginning, inherent In the con- ~t.l ution and developed into the connclous- ncss of huumn uillnily with the Divine through the revelation of Jesus Christ, is tlrc unc wnrrnnt. we can have for the life that cannot die. “1 shall not: die but live," is not. the produce of reason with its ai-tzuuwntativr- powers but is an intuitive conviction. There is but one satisfactory fortification for the hope that is within us. “(iod lives- in Tire and I in ltitu"~the soul passionatrly longs for Irnrrrortalit-y nvttl believes that the Everlasting Father has bestowed Ir.

[In is not the God of the dead but the God of the living, and rrjolcimz In tbls, Faith and Hope ckultant rlse into the deuthlessllfc. It is this that. prompted the. familiar lines of the Christian poet:— I falter where I firmly trod

And falling with my weight. of cores,

Upon the world's great altar stairs, That slope through darkness up to God,

I stretch lame hands of Faith and grape And gather dust. and chaflaml call

To what. I feel is Lord of all And faintly trust the larger hope.

Irifc would indeed be a. mockery, empty. meaningless, if death cndcd all. For us however the intuition of life eternal—the living God In a. man abldlntr—is at once a rcnllty and an Inspiration.

Our text teaches us that. It In Inconcelv- able that a being who has once been deemed worthy to hold communion with the unseen and universal should really be the mere crurture of a day. A being honored by the distinct consciousness of bcinr.r In the presence of God has the strongest evidence ofzzimmortality and must'surrly be rrscrved for some higher rlrsliny than It more going down into silence.

“ l‘hnu urtJusi: Thou wouldst not leave run in the dark.“

The inadequacy of the present life to untlsfy thctlcmnnds of moral conscious- ness the incrrtdicublu aspirations of the human spirit, not. only or chieﬂy for happiness but for knowledge and holiness —tbc enormous contrast between the capacities with which human nature has been endowed anti tharmengre realisation which can be glvantpthem w'lthln the span of this earthly life~tha energy. with which reason affirmb thatjuatlce ought to prevail In the aﬂ'nl'ra of man when con- trusted with the equally emphatic mob inn of experience thntJuatlca does not as yet. prevail; all no to show that life In not. complete here. It In but a fragment. Surely II. In incompatible with the Justice of God that It should remain so. Our strongest evidence for immortality lies not In our perfoctlona but. In our Imperfec- Lions. We cannotbelleve that tho soul reaohrs with faithful effort, and thrilled with Dlvlnc hope the mountain peak, only to topple over the precipice Into nothing- units. We dare not dimer-ace the clear- uraa nmldeflnllenesa which In added to our Iontrlnrra after Immortality by the be lief In Christ's risen and eternal life, sym- bollned itan attested by the vision of the Apostle. The love then manifested In the love that still pursues an as In strong-

er than death. They ala who find a "wit

The light which shone on Christ's tomb In the light that litl-tclh t-vcrv limit that coureth Into tho. world. brougbtalrout the resurrection of Christ Wll‘l only the perfect working of n law thatoperatnsin all of us. To those who ﬂnrldifllcully ln acceptan the resurrec- tion of Christ. owing to what they deem unsatisfactory replies to historic, critical or psychological problems, we say: Do not surrender your faith in n glorious Immortality. Better by for to any we believe in immortality because we believe in God. The argument of our text lru— plies that one great supposition, Belief in God;conscquently they who share Christ's own faith In God as the common Father of the whole human Time—the race whose moral capacities have been illu~l.r'rtled by the saints and heroes of all time, up

mo~t of all by them on whom we look Il‘l something more than saint or hero, can- not believe that rules to have been destined fnralifc so poor and so rnrnnlnglees as this life actually is to many. \Vc are, not. only because we are in God and part. of Ills being, our personality held in His personality. That. which Is in God's eternal being cannot perish.

Belief in God and belief in immortnllly must stand or fall together. There or some, it In true, who believe in God, who recognize, as has been wr-ll said, that conscience Is more than n. commotion of the diaphragm which somehow helps in the struggle for existence, who justify the world which we see around us on lbc supposition that there (inn be no existence beyond the grave. ’l‘herc rtrc others who

lateness of the whole rimttcr, the result of clinging by rll curtom or otherwise to belief in God and immortality, but who have no real pleasure or interest in their belief, on whom it produces no result. This want ofvitul faith in due to it moan conception of their own moral nntule following ona mean conceptinn of God‘s moral nature. Cowper, one of the finest souls that ever breathed." died refusing comfort to the Inst. I feel. he said. when asked how he MI: “I feel unuttemble despair." A prominent. member of the Presbyterian church In this province greeted the unseen with the momentous expression “All is dark." Such results have been produced by the citrirn'ures ‘0 which the doctrine] of lmutortnllty ll‘lﬂ been exposed—by the lnnllequrtc intel- leciunl and moral conceptions of God—dry the false gospel which makes the hope of heaven and the fear of hell the sole motives of human duty. This Is only a travesty of the Gospel of the' grace of God. The gospel that appeals to the soul is the fatherhood of God and the int- rnortu‘ity of the race in him. This it. is which gives us cndlesn'uaplrutlon after unrenched, even unconceived perfection. and, mingled with this cry of unconlent with anything that earth can give, it stern demaan todo our duty here on carth.l.ivn In and for the present, It cries, butncverbe antisilcd with It. I’ul'ow the averrntrentlng ulenm; pursue Ideals which can only be realised in immortal life. This Is in keeping with the morality of the New Testament which is summed upln the word love. The love that Is Haiflall in no love at all and the gospel of universal selfllsbncss, nrtmcly, duty for the sake of reward—life here and here- after for the sake of pleasure- in n gospel that drrrrnden. In leaving this part. of the question we need not hesitate to admit. that goodness and sin can with great dlf— flcully be the some things to the man who believes thatln a few years It will make no difference to himself or, to any of those whom his conduct. may nﬂ‘ect, as they are to the man-who seen In his own life and in the lives of those around him in. stage in the development of Immortal souls. Thé best. work of the world has been done by men who recognised that, llfe was but: the spring of which the harvest. would be reaped In the eternal years—men in whose hearts llved the vision of the everlasting day.

In the hours of weakness and desponrl- ency to the poor and the afﬂicted. the suffering and the unfortunate, the much tempted and the tried, the marvellous value of the doctrine of Immortality no tbseource of personal support and en- couragement, consolation and inspiration, ls far beyond our power of ‘exproaalon. To all It in the one condition of that hope- fulnosa without which few min have the atrangth to llvo effective liven. '

One whose. professed pbllmohy was that of pleasure has said. "When a man passionately refuses to believe that the wages of virtue “can be duawi It In often less from any private reokoat a about his own wages. than from a Ialntereeted aversion to a universe no fundamently Irrational that good for the Indlvldnnl Is not ultimately Identified with universal good."

H Ventilating Oven that Ventilates.

There is only one practical way of ventilating a range oven and that way has been adopted in the Pandora—is an actual. positive, work- ing feature and not a mere talking point.

Fresh air is drawn from the outside through small vents into the oven while the odors and cooking fumes are forced by the fresh air out through small ventsinto the smoke fines, and up the chimney.

Roasts cooked in a Pandora oven retain their syLeet, natural ﬂavor, entirely free from cooking odors, absolutely unmixed with any foreign ﬂavor. Puddings, cakes, bread, meats, etc., are always light, fresh and free from mixed odors 'or ﬂavors.

In the Pandora range you get all that scientiﬁc study, practical experience, skilled workmanship and an immense and ﬁnely equipped plant combined, can produce—the highest possible attainment in range perfection. '
