Th Manner of God Lev.
We know that when He nhall appear,
we ahnll ha like Him for we snail aee
Him aa He la. I. John. t. 2.
Very tenderly John speak to his
friend about the Advocate we have
with the Father. Five time In that
beautiful aecond chapter of his first
epistle he call them "little children."
Once he speaks of them as brethren,
and once he makes the distinction of
father and sons, but Immediately
goes back and directs hts words to
the little children he evidently has so
In mind. Then all at once, as If an
overwhelming sense of God's good
ness had coire rushing over him, he
crlea out: "Behold what manner of
love the Father hath bestowed upon
us!" But what is this wonderful
manner of love? John stands for
a moment aa If thinking It over,
and then with voice all full of the
emotion the thought brings to him ho
whispers, "That we should be called
the Bons of God." We. the unworthy,
60 stained by sin; we who have so
many times turned away from him.
wasting the store of affection ho has
lavished upon us; we, who more times
than we can think or know, have
closed our hearts to every appeal and
gone away Into the wilderness to live
In rioting, we are still the sons of
Cod! It seems as If John knew all
the weak places in man's henrt, for a
little while before he says, "If we say
that we have not slnne.l, we deceive
ourselves and the truth is not in lis."
Even John, so tender and true, the
be'oved disciple, In whom we rhould
not expect, to find any of the deep cur
rents of evil which played such havoc
with the other disciples, even he
understood all about the deadly
forei s of sin.
I!ut is he discouraged that sin foes
so abound? Oh. no. "If we confess
our Rlns he is faithful and Just to
forgive us our Fins, and to cleanse us
from all unrighteousness." And this
not because of any goodness of ours,
but because we have an advocate
with the Father. Jesus Christ, the
righteous." But grand as this thought
Is, It is not all that Is In store for
God's beloved. For the moment we
are filled with Joy at the thought that
In spite of all we have done to grieve
the Father, he Is yet ready to take
us back as sons if we confess and
return; but John sees still greater
things In store for us. Still' greater
blessing for us? Yes. "Beloved,
now are we the son of God; ant It
doth not yet appear we shall be like
him, for we shall see him as he is."
What glorious heights this thought
carries us to. Sweeping away b?yond
earth and sky, all else forgot, we are
to be like God. How can we ever
understand this? Is It not too much
for our poor minds to grasp, that
we shall ever rise to the dignity of
character that dwells only with the
Heavenly Father? Surely, some great
things must be expected of us In re
turn for such divine gift. Here John
has not left us In doubt. He says
"Every man that hath this hope In
him puriflctb himself, even as be Is
pure." He will want to do It he will
be ashamed not to do so. Then John
says, when we come to realize the
blessings In store for us, we will abide
in God. We will do righteousness;
we will love the brethren; we will
lay down our lives for the brethren,
keeping the commandments and fully
believing In the name of Jesus Christ.
These are just what the loving heart
whl want to do. There will be no
thought of hardship about It. We will
long to do all this, and whatever
more may come In our way to do.
And this Is the manner of God's love.
How boundless; how Incomprehen
sible; how divine! God help us to
rest on this love and makes it forever
ours. Edgar L Vincent.
Peace For th Heart
To a sin-burdened, depraved soul,
worldly prescriptions are not of
much account. How can It console a
person who has wandered far from
God to go off on a tour, far from home,
where every new an strange scene
only tends to increase his melan
choly? But, give that wanderer re
lease from his compunctions of con
science, and then the privileges of
travel, and he will veritably revel In
the delights of new scenes and new
associations, every one of which will
remind him of the bounty and loving
mercy of God In permitting bless': nee
and privileges. The truth Is, man is
a wayfarer on earth, and he never
finds his true home until he reposes
with a tender trust la, God. In mo
ments when be most feels his es
trangement from his Maker, ho can
not be consoled by the world's pro
visions for the flesh, He wants a
higher comfort than can reach him
through sense, faculty or nerve. The
thing that really ails him Is not with
in the range of mental or physical
Influence. Ho Is sin-sick. , His soul
craves Divine food, even In the hid
den manna. All else Is husks and
trash, whethfr he thus treats it or
not. God alone can satisfy his own
Oioral handiwork. The Image of God

anything less, Is only as dust In place
of water to a thirsty traveler. Yoti
may soothe the outward surface, but
you cannot calm the Inner spirit with
fun and folly, when the most serious
and Rolemn work of sin eradication
la needed and craved. In the secret
and solitary chamber of every unfor
given heart there are agonines and
longings that no earthly power can
satisfy or stifle. When a human

Th Power of Lov.
The power for work Is love. It
was love that moved Ood to all His
work In creation and redemption. It
was love that enabled Christ as man
to work and to suffer as He did. It
Is love that can Inspire us with the
power of self-sacrifice which seek
not Its own, but Is ready to live and
die for otners. It Is love that gives uj
the patience that refuses to give up
the unthankful or the hardened. It
Is love that reaches and overcome!
the most hopeless. Both In ourselvei
and those for whom we labor, love la
the power for work. Let us love at
Christ loved us.
The power for love is faith. Faltb
roots its life in the life of Christ Jesus
which Is all love. Faith knows, even
when we cannot realize fully, the won
derful gift which hasibeen given Intc
our heart In the toly Spirit shedding
abroad God's love there. A spring

stopped up. Until It Is opened, the
fountain cannot flow out. Faltb
knows that there Is a fountain of love
within which can spring up Into eter
nal life, which can flow out as riveri
of living waters. It assures us thai
e can love; that we have a Divine
power to love within us. as an Inalien
able endowment of our new nature.
The power to exercise . and show
love is work.. There is no such thing
as power In the abstract; it only nctt
as it Is exorcised. Power In repose
cannot be found or felt. This if
specially true, of the Christian graces
hidden ns they are amid the weak
nesses of our human nature. It If
uily by doing that you know that you
have: a grace must be acted ere we
can rejoice In Its possession. This if
the unspeakable blessedness of work
and makes it so essentiul to a healthy
Christian life that it wakens up and
strengthens love and makes us par
takers of Its joy. Rev. Andrew Mup

Children of Light.
Vnlk as children of llRht" (Kph. v. 8),
We cannot too often be reminded ol
the fact that it Is not so much whal
we say as what we are that Impresset
others with a true sense of the religion
of our Master. The boy grows up and
forgets all that his mother taught him
the books she read to him, the pray
ers and hymns she trained him to re
peat In infancy; but the meaning ol
what his mother was, her life of loving
self-denial and usefulness, that Is Ira
perishable, the engraving as of an Iron
pen and lead In the rock forever.
Hence the Importance which St
Paul attaches to walking not mere
talking as children of light. It Is bj
our lives that men of the world will
jdge of the sincerity of our profes
sion and the genuineness of our relig
Ion. The Christian is the world's Bl
ble, and, alas! often the only one it
reads. Let us walk circumspectly,
then. If we wear habitually a look ol
fretfulness and discontent, it will be
useless to preach to them of the joy
of God s salvation. If w e are known tn
be aeLlsh and worldly in our public oi
private dealings, It will stultify om
message on the self-sacrifice of the
Cross and the power of religion to con
quer besetting sin. In short. If we are
un-Christllke In our own life and walk,
we are no fit witness-bearers for the
truth as it is in Jesus.
But let us not be discouraged. II
Christ be In us His life will appear
In ours, however dimly and Imperfect
ly nt first. He not only gives His peo
ple light, but He makes them lumin
ous. "He glveth power to the faint."
He can transform us by His spirit, en
able us to rudiato His light and truth,
assimilate us more and more to His
own Image and likeness, and help us
to become at length children of tho
light and of the day Dr. Balgarnia
Forget Your Troubles.
The worst condition of life possible
U the habit of brooding over troubles.
Under careful nursing tho slightest
difficulty may develop Into a great
overshadowing sorrow. We have no
riuht to ho dishonest to ourselves
and others by giving a larger place to
our troubles than they deserve. Turn
our thoughts toward the needs of
other. Be occupied with the things
of Cht'ist. Will to think of the purer,
brighter things. Refuse to think of
your trouble, and soon It will fade
away until It assumes Its right pro
portions. The Christian's Hope.

FORCED RECIPROCITY
WILL GERMANY ATTEMPT
TO
PUT ON THE SCREWS?
In Such an Event We Should Have
to Consider the Consequences of
Unfair Tariff Discrimination Against
Great Britain, Our Best Customer.
There are Intimations that the Ger
man ambassador to the United States
will return to his post of duty this
year, bringing with him a plan for
reciprocal trade relations between
Germany and the United States. This
suggeston is apropos of the fact that
about March 1 of next year th new
German tariff policy will go Into ef
fect, and under It provision any
country that has not completed re
ciprocal trade agreements with th
German Empir will be subjected to
th highest rates Imposed under th
new system of tariff exactlona to b
put In force by the German govern
ment. It Is well known that before
his departure for the summer Am
hansador von Sternberg Informed
President Roosevelt and Secretary
Shaw of the Treasury, that he hoped
to be able to present a plan for recip
rocity which would be acceptable to
the United States and which would
have the effect of giving to this coun
try the benefits of the lowest possible
rates of duty upon our Imports Into
the German market. While neither
the president nor his secretary of the
treasury has said anything publicly
regarding their views In respect to
this suggestion by the ambassador. It
Is expected that President Roosevelt
In his annual message to congress at
the beginning of the session In Decern
ber will fully diHcuss that matter.
There is every reason to believe
that the comments of the president
and the coming on of the time when
a change Is to take place In Ger
many's tariff policy will have the ef
fect of giving renewed Impetus to- tho
agitation for extension of the recip
rocity policy of this country. Atten
tlon has already been called to tho
danger which lurks In concessions to
Germany along lines which It Is as
sumed will be. If they have not al
ready been, suggested by tho German
government through Its ambassador
to the United States. Great Britain,
France, Russia and other leading com
mercial nations are not making such
demands upon tho United States
and it is. practically certain that If
It were proposed that the United
States should grant to tho manufact
ured products of Germany better ad
vantages In the markets of this coun
try than are now asked by any other
commercial nation it would be accept
ed as an affront by Great Britain. If
that is a fact. It should be borne In
mind that the trade of the United
States with great Britain is of such
vastly greater Importance to this
country than is that of Germany that
the people of the United States would
better reflect carefully upon the pos
sible consequences of granting more
liberal concessions to Germany than
we may be willing to grant to Eng
land, or to any other of the leading
commercial European nations.
The fact Is not to be lost sight of
that the proposed German tariff
changes will affect only a compara
tively small percentage of the aggre
gate annual sales of American prod
ucts in the German markets. Of
course. It is Important that no part
of our sales shall be affected, if that
result can be avoided. It is especial
ly unfortunate that the proposed Ger
man tariff policy hits with particular
ly discriminating force certain farm
products of this country, and notably
our live stock, meats and breadstuffs.
It Is the opinion of careful students
of the situation in Germany that a
large part of the Increased burdens
of customs taxation intended to be
Imposed by the terms of tho German
tariff law will fall upon the German
people themselves; in other words,
Germany, being a purchaser of a largo
percentage of these requisite food
products In the markets of the world,
must stand the burden of tho added
datles, rather than be :.blo to shift

mm mm. n upon ins setters m ,

which are the United State. Not only
Is this statement true, with all that
It implies, and it cannot but have an
Important effect In determining the
question of the long continuance of
tho new German trade policy, but It
Is equally true that so small a per
centage of our exports to Germany
are to be affected by the increased
rates that It will be wise fur the
American people to make haste slow
ly In conceding what the German gov
ernment will ask In the proposed read
justment of the trade policies between
the two nation.
The real point to be borne In mind
Is that there Is a possibility that In
the wild clamor of the "reciprocity"
agitator for speedy concessions to
Germany, out of fear that great dis
aster shall come upon the trade of the
United States with that country, our
people may be rushed Into the adop
tion of a policy which. In efforts to get
away from the slight real or imagin
ary dangers of the time, will be cer
tain to bring greater harm to Ameri
can trade and lndusty in other direc
tions. The Impression prevails that Pres
ident Roosevelt has practically con
eluded his message which will go to
the coming congress. It is known
that he will have another word to of
fer on tho subject of government con
trol of railway rates; that he will re
new hts former recommendations on
the subject of enlarging the scope of
government control lu Interstate mat
tors to Include, in some degree at
least. Insurance companies; that he
will again touch upon the Importance
of this government taking a positive
stand with respect to the relations ol
all the powers toward the Insular re
publics of the Caribbean sea region
but It will be a surprise to those who
have watched the course of events II
he shall have anything to say In the
direction of urging upon Congress the
making of Changes In the tnriff sched
ules at this time. On the contrary,
those who have observed closely the
trend of events are Inclined to be
lieve that President Roosevelt and bis
Immediate advisers have concluded
that It will be well to "pass up" the
question of tariff ehane s until the
people have had a ohaf e to express
their opinions on tlnj mibject in a
formal way at the neif general elec
tions in tho fall of 1m. li. The reason
for this course is the fact that tho
claims, even among Republicans, sen
ators and representatives are so diver
sified that the President has not
found anything like unanimity of sen
timent favorable to his plans for se
curing modifications In the tariff. The
fact Is constantly brought to his at
tention that the coming House of Rep
resentatives was elected upon tho Is
sue of "letting well enough alone."
Tlfat was the issue emphasized by the
leaders In the Republican campaign,
and Speaker Cannon, tho foremost
spokesman for his party in the Con
gressional elections, made that the
burden of his argument, to tho electors
In many states. With an Increased
Republican majority returned to the
House on Issues thus presented, . it
Is not regarded as timely or proper
for anybody to claim that the coun
try has commissioned the coming Con
gress to enter upon a policy of chang
ing the revenue laws. It will be time
to try out that Issue fully and fairly
before the people In the elections of
next fall when a new House of Rep
resentatives Is to be chosen.
It would be more gratifying to the
Republican representatives If Presi
dent Roosevelt were to devote a large
part of his forthcoming message to a
vigorous demand upon Congress for a
reduction tn general expenditures.
Here Is room for a genuine reform.
The House of Representatives In the
last Congress made a. vigorous move
In that direction, nnd accomplished
some excellent results. The pressure
for Increasod appropriations by tin
coming Congress will be so strong.
however, from nil directions that It
will require !he best efforts of both
branches of the legislative body nnd of
the executive, acting in unison and in
real earnest, to bring about tho need
ed reforms in that direction.

LLUAN BUYS HER OWN TICKETS

Lillian Russell Saturday took mat
ters Into her own bauds to solve the
problem of the ticket speculator. At
t o'clock she whizzed tip to the front
of Proctor's Twenty-third Street the
ater nnd, as she alighted from the car.
the most persistent of the speculators
sidled up to her nnd thrusting a bunch
of tickets upon her, ;ald:
"I've the last twenty good seats In
the house. Give you the best two
for 13. Can't get any at the box of
fice." Miss Russell took the bunch of
tickets as If to look them over nnd
makes her selection and walked rnpld
ly toward the box office. The specu
lator, who had never had any tickets
taken from him before by prospective
purchasers, pressed close upon her
loudly demanding a return of his tick
ets. Miss Russell stepped to the win
dow and handing the twenty tickets
to the treasurer, said:
"Here aro twenty Ml-cent seats. This
peculator tried to sell two of them
to mo at $1.50 apiece. Give him $10
for them." and with a smile entered
the theater and proceeded to her
dressing room.
The speculator frothed at the mouth.
Ho demanded his tickets back, but
the treasurer, standing uKn the legal
rights of theatrical managers estab
lished In the courts to .the effect that
tickets are not transferable nnd that
they have the rlgnt to revoke the en
trance and return the money for those
transferred to persona offensive to the
management, refused.
"I bought those tickets from you,"
roared the speculator.
"You certainly did not." said the box
office mnn. "I have never sold a
ticket to you and never will. I know
you too well. Yon have been thrown
out of this lobby a doen times with
