IV. An Example of Sins Forgiven.

bo an Interruption of Jesus' "discourse
wan beautifully turned by him into tin
illustration and enforcement of his
teaching. "When Jesus saw their
faith." The faith went far deeper
than a hope for buddy healing. This
may be one reason why Jesus took the
course that he did. He showed (1)
that redemption from sin was worth
mere than redemption from disease:
(21 that only hy being saved from sin
could the bodily i lire be permanent or
most valuable: CD he held up before
tli. -pi an object lesson of faith, su that
they could see what faith was, how it
saved and how It was manifested.
There was always danger I'nai the out
ward healing would absorb too much
attention. It was good indeed, but of
f.m all value unless it led to better
lives and renewed souls. "He said

"Tli If! man thus speak blasphem
ies?" To blaspheme Is to slander
God, to speak evil, impiously, of God.
In thin case it wa i arrogating to him
self what belonited only to God. thus
making God like a mere man. Blas
phemy Is practically uttered treason
against God. ' Who can forgive sins
hut God only?'' Sins are against God,
ami therefore only God can forgive
them; for in the nature of things only
he against whom the offense lias been

give the evil done to myself, but I
cannot forgive Hie evil done to my

The miracle was the signature of Cod

It was unite as essential that the
man himself should know, as for the

pended on It.

I. like adds. "They were filled with

men ever feel in Hie presence of a
great ami tnysierii us power. Here
was one also who hail unlimited pow
er; what might he not do to them?
Had they secret sins ur.forglven '.' Hut
I hey also saw the goodness of God;
his forgiving love: his readiness to
help; a:id this. too. for the sinful and
helpless. This was the most amazing
thing of ail. This was like tho an
gels' song of - Teace. good w ill to
men." It was tin- proof of the bn
mortal revelation that "God so loved
the world that lie gave b's only be
gotten Son that whosoever believetll
in li I in should have eternal life." "And
glorilled God." I. like adds, "saying.
We have seen strange things to-day."
They ascribed the lienor and glory K
God, as the source of this benellcent
power. The good iheds of God's chil
dren honor God. and lead (lie souls of
nun toward him (Matt. ":lill.
VI. A Stiitly of the Forgiveness of
Sin. The Heart of the Lesson. As
exemplilied in the healing of the pgr
nlyttc. First, the Need of Forgiveness lies
(II in the fact that all have sinned.
No "flattery mirror" can so deceive
the soul as to make one believe that
his moral portrait Is that of a perfect
nian.
Forgiveness does not remove all the
consequences of sin. It cannot bring
back the slain. It cannot remove the
fact of sin. It cannot Immediately re
move the scarlet letter, as in Haw
thorne's romance. It leaves certain
marks and scars on thp soul. And
this is the warning against sin. It is
folly to sin. imagining thnt it is easy
to recover from its effects.
It does remove the penalty of sin.
It does bring back many hlessings
that sin has forfeited. It does restore
the outward expressions of God's fa
vor. We cannot conceive of a pardon
that goes on punishing the same tis
before. We do not forgive another if
It makes no change in our actions to
ward him. We do not forgive a debt
if v.e continue to press for its pay
ment. How can the Cain mark be removed
from our souls? Will not the black
past lie forever present, forever scent
One simple illustration has brought
comfort. I have seen a black coal by
the roadside, the very essence of
blackness. I have seen the sun shine
on that black coal and I could no
'oiigc:- see the blackness because o
the sun's radiance rellected from it.
It wa; no longer a black coal, lint a
star of glory. So when wo gel to
heaven, the wondrous love ami wis
dom (.!' God nnd of his Son Jesus ill
Having such sinners as we have been
will make ourselves and every one
force: the sin In the shining of re
di'i'iiii'ig love. And even here Hie
splendid light against sin. the glorious
victory over it. the good that has been
wrought in ns by overcoming ii, will
put the sin in Hie background, ami its
blackness will be hidden by the light
of Hit- it",ory. The dust and smoke of
the battle will he forgotten in the
shining of the morning star, the re
ward of him i h:it overconieth.
Forgiveness is chielly restoration
to the family and favor of God. And
this Is a far higher blessing than the
lemoval of suffering. Sin lias set us
in opposition to God, so that we dn
aot feil at home in his presence. For
giveness brings us close to the heart
of God. Into oneness with him. It
gives us a new start In the spiritual
life. It gives a new meaning to tho
love of God, a new vision of righteous
ness and tender mercies and loving
kindness.
Forg.veness, therefore, is remission
of sin, :t deliverance from the love of
sin. a heart that hates sin.
In the laird's Trayer tho condition
of being forgiven is that we forgive
those who have trespassed against us.
For no one can be truly penitent, or
li'ted to receive forgiveness from God,
unless he has a forgiving spirit to
ward his enemies. Compare thp par
able of the two debtors.
Forgiveness comes through Jesus

OVER SEA HABIT
Difference on This Side the Water.
Tho persistent effect upon the heart
of caffeine in coffee cannot but re
suit in the gravest conditions, In time.
Kadi attack of the drug (ard that
tmar.B each cup of coffee) weakens
the organ a little more, and the end
Is ul u ost a matter of mathematical
demonstration. A lady writea from
a Western state:
"I am of German descent and It
was natural that I should learn at a
very early age to drink coffee. Until
I was 23 y ars old I drank scarcely
anything else at my meals.
"A few years ago 1 begnn to be af
fected by a steadily Increasing nerv
ousness, which eventually developed
Into a distressing heart trouble, that
made mo very wenk and miserable.
Then, some three years ago, was add
ed asthma In Its worst form. My
sufferings from tbeso things can be
better imagined than described.
"During all this timo my husband
realized more fully than I did that cof
fee was Injurious to me, and made ev
ery effort to make me Btop.
"Finally It was derided a few
months ago, to quit the use of coffee
absolutely, and to adopt Tostum Food
Coffee as our hot table drink. I had
but little Idea that It would help me,
but consented to try It to please my
husband. I prepared It very carefully,
exactly according to directions, and
wus delighted with Its delicious Sav
or and refreshing qualities.
"Just as soon as the poison from
the coffee bad time to get out of my
system tho nutritive properties of the
Tostum began to build me up, and I
am now fully recovered from nil my
nervousness, heart trouble and asth

for tho first time In years, 1 enjoy

MARVELOUS CROP RETURNS
Tho Increase In tho crop returns of
the Canadian West, In tho past seven
years has approached tbo marvelous,
and thero Is no reason to believe that
a corresponding. Incronse will not re
sult for many years to come. The In
crease has been particularly noticeable
In what was formerly known as the
Northwest Territories, but which, on
September 1st, 1905, became the prov
inces of Alberta and Saskatchewan.
From the official returns we find the
following results In the acreage sown
to wheat, oats nnd barley, In the
years mentioned, nnd a more favor
able showing rnnnot be pointed to
In any .other country durlng a like
period. '

1903 S37.2.14 440,002 0S.974
1904 9113,549 623,034 98,154
The yield has been uniformly good
every year except 1900, when there ap
pears to have been a slump nil along
the line. This, however, was more
than compensated for In tho following
year, when tho bumper crop In Wi'ieat,
oats and barky put tho returns ot all
previous years completely In tho shade
and gave an Impetus to settlement In
the west which has prevailed to thd
present, as tho following table by
bushels will show:
Wheat. Oats. Barley.

1904 ..10,875,537 10,3o2,551 2.205,134
It will be seen that tho number of
ncres sown to wheat, oata nnd barley
in 1S9S was 429,749, and that this had
Increased In 1904 to 1,587,337. Tho
total crop In the cereals mentioned
was 9,033,297 bushels In 1898, and In
1904 It had grown to the magnificent
total of 35,413,522. In tho year just
closed the "forwnrd movement" in
the agriculture of the west has been
the wonder and envy of the world.
Now sections of the country have
been placed under tribute to the plow
and harrow, and the grain area has
been largely Increased. This Is par
ticularly the case where It has been
demonstrated thnt "Alberta Red" win
ter wheat may be successfully grown,
and along the lines of the new rail
way! towards the centre of the coun
try, where mixed farming prevails.
The future of the Canadian West
Is assured, and for years to come It
is bound to be the laud of promise to
the agriculturist of every nation and
ot every clime, nnd the land of oppor
tunity to every settler within Its
bounds.
