' SCHOLARS AND SAINTS The deep things of God cannot be found by unaided reason. “Eye h ath no t seen.” N either are they to be ap­ prehended by artistic vision. “E ar h ath not heard .” N either are they to be dis­ covered in th e discussion of philosophic schools. “N either h ath entered into th e h ea rt of m an.” Even poetic insight cannot discern them . All common lights fail in th is realm ; There is but one illum ination— th a t of the Holy Spirit. He it is who is offered to us “ to make known to us th e things th a t are freely given to us of God.” And th is is the reason so many uncultured people are sp iritually wiser th an many who are learned. They lack talen t, bu t they have grace. They lack accom­ plishment, bu t they have th e Holy Ghost. They lack th e telescope, but they have the sunlight. They are not scholars, b u t they are saints.— Selected. THE BEST PRAYER BOOK Grow very fam iliar w ith Bible pray­ ers, those terse sentences pregn an t w ith meaningJ-^“C reate in me a clean h eart, O L o rd ;” “Keep th e door of my lip s;" “ In thee, O Lord, do I p u t my tr u s t;” “ Be thou to me a strong ro c k ;” “ Con tinu e thy loving-kindness unto them th a t know th e e ;” “Send out th y ligh t and thy tru th .” I should like to con­ tinue these quotations w ithout number. The Bible is very rich as a prayer-book. If we linger much among such peti­ tions, hab it will again come to our aid, and the Bible words will rush in upon us when we pray before others.— Rev. F. B. Meyer. The though ts you get from the Bible, if given out, are th e more pos­ sessed. In d iv id u a l Cups Every church should use. Clean and sanitary. Send for catalog and special offer.
