There is moral design in all creat ion. The earth is a great university for the moral training of mankind. Reason-saya-that-our world.is the best world., God ; could make for us, because if he could have made a better one he would have done so. If the world waii made for a place to accumulate wealth, or to have pleasure,. I think I could make some improvments myself, if I had the power to create. But as the world is a school room for character building ,1 it is impossible to conceive cf anything better adapted to that purpose. • ‘ ‘ Gdd could have created all the product of all the labor of all the men of all the ages in a moment. But the fact that he htB not done so but proveB that there is m moral end in labor. We obtain material wealth by toil, but the chief ond of all wor|c is moral influence. This world is so arranged that we choose between honesty and dia- honesty, truth and falsehood, purity and impurity, charity and greed. In fact we have to daily so ehoose. If we lose wealth or pleasure or, position by choosing the,, right we thereof gain a thousand ¡fold in moral treas ure. If we gain material blessinga by. choosing,,the. wrong, we lose everything. God measures everything from the moral standpoint and ho has so ar ranged the world that it is impossible for one to’pass, through it, without possessing himself of all the true eternal - riches'',pcii&ible for him to appropriate to himself, though he may lose even his life in his struggle l or the right. We measure all true worth of men i j their moral influence. Luther, Wesley, Knox, Washington, Lincoln are ell great bocause o f their moral influence in the world. The Christian is the only man who can exert a positive moral influence in society. The man who ia not. mown as a true Christian, who does not belong to and attend church, who does not work to adyance the inter ests of Christianity, whatever else he may be, is not a positive power in the world moral. What a power for good Is an active Christian lawyer, physician, teacher and business man. What an influ- enco for good is an active Christian, intelligent and refined woman. Women, are naturally religious, but if she neglects the development of her reljgious nature, she can not take the place in life she was de signed to fill. I know an infidel in Oregon who told his neighbors that he wished his wife was a Christian as she would have a better influence over her children. Think of a man living without any moral influence in society! It was said to me the other day that such and such a family are absolutely without moral influence in the com munity. ’ ‘ ' i have known o f the coming of a family into a community to mean the coming of a moral revolution in that place. The presence’ o f some people in a town means the presenoe of an immoral influence there! I read in a book’on statistics that in Peoria, 111 ., there are more arrsata for 'crime ac cording to ’ the population than in any othercity In 'America. A few vyeelcs after that I ’remembered that Peoria was the floiqe o f fngersoll. iiorthfield, Maas., is known as a model town. You can find thera no sjgh of any of those 'evil institutions that are degrading so many o f our towns. Theye is a/sch o o l for young men and a college for girls. . All the churches'' are prospering, There is a high social, intellectual and moral tons in the town. Wa all there yet. A plow is attempting to clear tho-irack. o f snow, which has tilled all cuts and made traffic nearly impossible. The Washburn road north of of Moody and that,his influence there Bismark is snowed in completely, made the place a model community. No attempt will bo made to send It is also impossible not to believe out a train until the storm abates, that the home o f Ingersoll in Peoria * Reports-received from along the is the dread cause of that town in the line of tbat road states it is the fair state o f Illinois having more ar- worst storm of the season.
