In an interesting resume of a Whitsunday sermon, the preacher appears to have discriminated between the joyous atmosphere of the early Christianity, when the church was full of life triumphant, and the modern clerical visitation of the sick, in which the minister of religion, who has been called in after the doctors have done all they could, must not come to the bedside as the agent of the life-giving Christ; all energy in that direction having been abdicated in favour of the "cranky followers of Mrs.

Our reverend critic loses sight of, or else is not aware of, the fact that Christian Science is based fundamentally and absolutely upon the Bible and the teachings of Jesus Christ, who demonstrated by his works his knowledge of the power of the divine Principle to destroy sin and pain, and who commanded his followers not only to do likewise, but "greater works than these.

"REAL STRENGTH"

In every movement, whether it be religious or otherwise, there is a tendency to gage its success wholly from the material standpoint, that is, to measure its importance by its numerical, social, or financial strength; and this all too common tendency, so far as it has a bearing on Christianity, is recognized and rebuked in a recent issue of the British Congregationalist, from which we quote the following paragraph:—

"SINCERITY AND TRUTH"

The apostle Paul directs thought away from creed and ritual, even from that which meant so much to his coreligionists, namely, the passover, with its unleavened bread; and he tells them of a better way to keep the feast, which is to get rid of the "leaven of malice and wickedness," and to partake of "the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

GROWTH

The lowly floweret growing at my feetLifts trustingly its face toward the light,By sweet reflection groweth ever brightAnd brighter, and its breath more pure and sweet,No eye beholds it in this lone retreat;From all save One, its beauty hidden quite,As hides yon beaming star the cloud of night;Yet smiling on, it lives its lifetime fleet.
