Summer's vacation having como to an end ,
the Sunday school children of the Central
Unlteil Presbyterian church were rallied to
gether at the church yesterday morning that
they might bo enlisted In the work with re
newed vigor and Interest and that the par
ents might bo awakened to the Importance
of becoming an aid In this Instruction ol
their children. There was a special program
for the morning service , Including man )

the children , The pastor , Rev. Alcxandei
Gllchrtst , took for his subject , "Bows and
Arrows , " and Illustrated It throughout wltl :
articles mentioned In the topic. He had va
rious kinds of bows which he likened to the
dlffercnts kinds of parents , and numerous
arrows which wcro to represent the chil
dren. These ho Introduced as he progressed
with his Ecrinon , applying them to points lu
made , the children repeatedly showing tlieli
Interest and understanding by exclamation ;
of joy or llttlo ripples of laughter.
In the course of the sermon , Dr. Gllchrlsl
Bald :
Wo can't know each other's name , but W (
can know what we are. God says we arc
n arrowp. Why does He call us arrows ? Bo-
caUBo arrows arc used to do something
which wo cannot do ourselves. The flrsl
rcfercnco to an arrow In the blblo Is when
an old man wanted some venison and
was unable to go out and get It himself. II (
called his son to him and told htm to Uakc
his bow and arrow and go out and get tht
venison. The old man was Isaac and th (
boy was Esau. Esau took his bow ant
arrow and killed a deer , which he brough
to his father.
Tomorrow morning mother may wani
some butter and shu will Kcnd on arrow
after It In the person of her lltjle boy , 01
she may want to send word to Aunt Jam
and use another arrow In her llttlo girl. GoO
saya wo are arrows In the hands of stronj
men. The parent Is flic bow. With a gooi
bow and arrow and some ono who knowi
how to use them the arrow can be scnl

The huntsman flnds the mark , takes goo <

should go and then try to send It there.
This arrow has a point. That Is to matti

Some people think that one arrow In tin

The quiver ought to be full of arrows am

AVOMAN'S DAY AT IinT
SCX'H Superior IntclllKoncu nn He
Hpc'U'iI liy > irr\lct' of Churi'h.
At Beth-Eden Baptist church yesterday
In accordance with a custom , the morntni
service was ono especially appropriate ti
woman's day. Rev. C. B. Allen , jr. , took a
a text for his sermon verses from the Bcrlo
turo which served the two-fold purpose o
describing the character of a Chrlstlai
woman In the time of Christ and slgulfyliij
Christ's wish regarding the treatment o
woman , as revealed In the Instructions o
his disciple , Paul. They were from Paul'
Epistle to the .Romans , 1C:1 , 2 :
"I commend unto you Phoebe our sister
which Is n servant of the church which I
at Ccnchrca ; that yo rec-lvo her In the Lon
as becomes saints , and that yo assist her 1 :
whatsoever business she liath need of you
for she hath been a succorer of many ain
"myself. "
Woman's achievements In the past , ho
obligations morally and socially , an
woman's sphere of Influence , were the mat :
Ideas , the foundation stories upon which the
structure of the sermon was built. Rev.
Allen said In part :
The condition of woman at the dawn ol
the Christian era watt pitiable. In Rome
and Rome was a miniature of the civilized
world all women were suppressed and de
graded ; they were accorded no rights whjch
men could respect. If a woman allowed
the aspirations of soul to assert thi'mEclves
It wus considered to her elinmo rather than
to her credit. With the coming of Christ
came the emancipation of woman. From
the beginning woman has been the most de
voted follower of Jesus of Nazareth and
well she may , for to Htm she owes nil.
I wish this morning to call attention to
the work of women In the church and the
world. In the days Immediately following
the tlmo of Christ women were spoken of aa
workcro In the church of God. In the Now
Testament there are frequently allusions to
them , and coining down through subsequent
ages there are conspicuous exr.nutles of
women In religious matters. There were
many , but most prominent wcro the mother
of the Emperor Augustus , the mother of
Bernard and Helolw. In some cases their
Influence was direct , but often they wcro
only the "power behind the throne. "
In the many churches I have been priv
ileged to know , all the Important work
was done by women. You have heard It
said In a spirit of scorn that there are more
women members of churches than men , that
this Is true for the reason that women
think less than men.
Let mo give you two examples that will
point out the truth of the matter. Imagine
n room In which a score of men are sitting
the air dense , blue with tobacco smoke.
Thcro men lire sitting with chairs tilted
back , heels upon tables or divans' , they
are talking politics and prize fights. Im-
aglno another room where 300 women sit
with bowed heads and with reverent lips
repeat prayers or listen devoutly to les
sons taught by the ministers of God. Now ,
which Is the sign of greater Intellect , of
more thought ? To mingle with such a
gathering of men as I have pictured or to
sit and listen to the.pennons of a Beecher
or a John Hall ? More women than men
attend church because women think of bet
ter , truer , nobler things than men , because
they appreciate more than men the benefits
shed upon them by the shed blood of Je
sus.
Woman has always been a vital power In
politics ; the pages of history attest to her
Influence In this sphere In all ages. She
has attained to eminence In the literary
world and there are no names moro Illus
trious In literature than George Eliot. Mrs.
Humphrey Ward and Harriet Beecher Stowe
In reforms , Clara Barton , Florence Nlghton-
gain and Frances Ward are names that
will live forever. In work of a social na
ture woman Is the peer of all , but she bur-
lea her talent and ( lings' away her scepter
when she enters the domain of other la
bors and God made It to. Men are bread
winners and they ought to be. They arc
kings of the business world. Women are
queens of homes ; hers Is to cheer the heart ,
to make a homo that will bo a haven of
rest from storms of temptation In life.
Whether women will ever vote or not I
don't know. There Is a big outcry regarding
woman's suffrage , but I don't know that It
would bo n good thing. I don't believe It
and I'll tell you why. I don't believe that
woman's greatest power Is to be able to cast
a vote , but one thing I am cure of and that
Is that woman can be and Is a tremendous
power behind the ballot of men.

Rev. Samuel G. Anderson of Toledo , 0. ,
who Is hero visiting the exposition , occu
pied the pulpit of the First Presbyterian
church yesterday , morning and evening ,
During the morning service ho discoursed
on the value of having "A comprehensive
view of life. " The key to the thought he
had in mind , he said , he found in the
tlneo prepositional phrases of the text ,
"from the Father , " "into the world" and
"to the Father. " Jesus Christ In this
connection he likened to a "typical man"
and Ills outline of Ills own llfo compre
hended a divine origin , an earthly mission
and a heavenly destiny. His sermon , the
preacher explained , was more to the young
people , as It was Sunday school rally day ;
so ho advised them thus :
Jesus Christ had a comprehensive view ol
Ills life. So you should have of yours.
Get It early and hold on to It late. Life to
most of us Is a puzzle and we get lost In it
early. We should llvo in a large circle and
realize that the days are all linked to
gether. You will never get along If you
lose your lesson of yesterday and your hope
of tomorrow. Wo need to get a grip en the
whole. Some days are like the eccentric ol
nn engine. The eccentric Is the most un
gainly piece of the mechanism and we ask :
Why should wo have it ? But the Great
Engineer made It so and put It there , and
it is the ono wheel that more than all the
others ( loea the direction of the whole. Life
Is crooked if you llvo it in a small circle ,
but live it In a large circle and though
every day may seem straight It will be nn
are of the great circle. Like the captain ol
a Georgian bay vesncl say , "I have a map
of the whole and I Ball each knot by the
compass. "
Jesus was the/ typical man moro popular
than Kossuth. more beneficent than Gari
baldi or Lincoln , Bubllmer In His disap
pointment than Ruskln or Dante , more
tragic In the end than that of Socrates or
Savonarola , wiser than all the sages of all
the ages. Ho taught His disciples a great
truth when Ho pointed to His divine origin
and this thought lent power 4o Ills earthly
life. He thought about heavenly things-
wont up to the mountain lop to communi
cate with heavenly beings. So you can have
heavenly thoughts angels all around you.
1 Unless I am greatly mistaken the Father
i has done very well with this earth. He
knoweth we have need of all things for our

living for a wash woman with several chil

nev. Newton Mann , castor of the Unit ;
church , will return Tuesday from Boston
where ho has been fllllnc the pulpit o
the Unitarian church of that city for th
last two months. His home congrceatloi
listened yesterday morning to Hev. A. M
Judy of Davenport , la. , whoso subject wa
"God In the Light of Modern Thought. '
He said In part :
It Is not Oed as an objecl , but God n
supreme thought that man craves. Wo wan
to llvo face to face with God as wo live fnc
to face with man. This Is what moden
thought demands. How now shall God b
found ? I bellevo that scarcely hnd mai
begun to say "I" than ho began to sa'
"God. " When ho began to bo consclou
of a controlling power In himself ho recog
nlzed a controlling power without. The sun
shine , the mountain and the plain spoke t
him even as his neighbor spoke. Was h <
right ? Religion stands or falls on th
answer to this question. By religion w
do not mean mythology.
Mythology Is only n play of the fancy. Th
gods are ouly symbols. It does not follo >
that because man has used symbols tha
the experience does not exist. Columbli
and Undo Sam are the mythology of ou
patriotism , but our patriotism created them
They did not create our patriotism. Thongl

yet through them a soul has spokei
to a soul. Does not a man rcMd htmsel
Into the soul of another man when he find
there n soul ? Ha flnds movements or art
of benevolence In which good will expresse
Itself ; ho finds skill In which reason ex
presses Itself ; ho flnds art In which a sen's
of beauty expresses Itself. Then he look
at nature and contemplates Its movement'
Ho sees a sunset , the majesty of the flow
ing rlvor and the beetling summit of th
mountain or gazes with awe Into the Starr
vault. Can he say that they do not also ex
prcis a soul ? Sc when the host of humai
beings behold the pageantry of nature It 1
Impossible for them not to have n sens
of the soul that shines through It all. Th
answer is inevitable that it means God
After 10,000 posltlvistlc philosophies hav
been written with their denials of the son
the beauty of the world will still speak t >
man of God. What Is the literature of th
world but the reflection of this conviction
It Is the constant thcrno of Dante , Shake
speare , Goethe , and Hugo.
What Is there In the soul that Imparts t <
It that sense of awe ? Sin has had a terrl
bio awe upon the human foul. Is this sens
of sin something Into which mankind Iia
been tricked ! There have been hosts o
tricky priests , but they did not create th
sense of Bin. There is no notee or languag
In the conscience , but something tha
crowds on us constantly. Not In the sky
the mountain or the sea can man escap
the presence that urges to the right am
restrains from the wrong.
If you could sco God and hear Him s'peal

All people have longed for such a demon

In human form Ho could not Impress w

demonstration that could Issue from a flnlt
embodiment could equal the demonstrntloi
that is berne in upon us from the Infinite
Correct thinking makes it plain that whei
we say "perron" we do not mean body
"I" does not mean hands or feet. It can
not take body form , but there is nothlni
so real to us as ourselves.
God exists in the Infinite. Ho has in
likeness no body Ho Is love. Why thlnl
that reality can exist only in ono way
If our souls are not real we have no reapai
to believe in God's existence. But we be
llcvo in the reality of our souls and In th
constant pressure toward the right God I

Into a state after death that soul may de

will be no more real than now.
When there como to us visitations fron

there can never be some proof that Gdi

that Tennyson is right when he says
"Through the ages one Increasing purpos

The annual memorial service at the Tern
plo of Israel last evening was one appropri
ately commemorative of Atonement eve. Ii
a sermon that held his congregation In rap
attention , Rabbi Leo M. Franklin paid ai
eloquent tribute to the Illustrious dead of th
nation and the church. His subject wa
"Memorial Thoughts. " He said In part :
Turning tonight , on this most solemn cv
of our most Eolcmn festival , from the bus ;
activities of striving , strugglingllfo t
thoughts of these who rest In the sllcn
cities of the dead , there come to us with al
the stirring force of their deep pathos th
poet's words born of his vision of all men'
mortality. Speaking of the dying man , hi
muses : "All that breathes will share fE ;
destiny. The gay will laugh when thou or
gone , the solemn brood of care plod on , am
each ono as before pursue his favorite phan
torn. Yet all these shall leave their mlrtl
and their employments and shall como am
raako their bed with thee. As the long trail
of ages glide away , the sons of men , th <
youth In life's green spring , and ho whi
goes In the full strength of years , matroi
and rnald , and the sweet babe , and the gray
haired man , shall ono by one bo gathered t
thy sldo by these who In their turn shal
follow theo. " What a true picture , frlende
of that only truth which with equal fore
comes home to the great and the lowly o
the earth Is hero presented us the destln
of rvery living thing to die. Yet this Is i
truth which needs not poets' dreamy raus

When on this eve of memories our heart

The delights and dtngcra of city llfo wer >
brought out by ROT. John McQuold at th >
Flnt Methodist church last night. He Bali
In outlining the advantages of living In grca
centers of population that the highest Intel
Icctually Is Invariably found there owing ti
the presence of libraries , colleges and ar
galleries. The broadest charity Is also mo
with In cities , ho said , because the pcopli
there know more clearly on their own ac
count what suffering means. Mr. McQuolc
added that the deepest piety la also pfes
cnt In cities , for the reason that the ncare :
hell a man lives the better man he Is , pro
vlded ho was u good man originally for thi
gilt would bo burned In.
"It was the continual ambition of the ! &
raelltcs , " Mr. McQuold said , "to live In t
city. When their wish was finally gratlflei
they clung to Jerusalem with a love thai
remained long after It was lost to them. II
I forget thee , O Jerusalem , may my rlghl
hand forget Its cunning , and If I rcmcmbci
theo not , may my tongue clcavo to the real
of my mouth , was a sentiment that fillet !
the national heart , Jesus In his early man
hood shoso a city of learning and culture
not Capernaeum , the city of business anc1
trade. John , In bis apostolic vision , beheli' '
not a garden of paradlso but n wonderful
city. So Christians should feel at home mosi
of all In cities where they can both glvo ani
receive the most good.
"For cities are the scenes of the crises Ir
the lives of nations. Ancient history Is th (
history of Nineveh , Babylon , Rome ani
Athens and the history of Parla , Berlin , Lon
don and St. Petersburg is the history of the
nations they represent. Germany Is Berlin
Franco Is Paris and America Is Now York
Chicago and the other cities contained In It. '
Mr. McQuold then brought out the darl
sldo of city life , describing the selfishness
cowardice and misery found there. "Wher
Carlyle visited London as a young man , '
said the speaker , "ho was oppressed by tin
wretchedness of the reeking tenements , tin
squalor and the horrible destitution and hi
spoke words that apply to all largo cities
when he- said , 'It seemed to mo ono wild
chaotic den of discord. ' "
The saloons were described by Mr. Mc >
Quold In their Influence for evil upon th <
manhood of the land and another vital prob
1cm spoken of was regarding the great num
bers of foreigners gathered Into quarters s <
utterly low that children are not so mucl
born Into their surroundings as damned int (
them. Ho also spoke of the social evil
which , In his opinion , could be largely tracei
to the wretched wages paid to female labor
Among several hundred ruined women ques
tloned In an eastern city it was found thai
but 5 per cent of them had been earning a :
much as $8 a week and many of them nc
more than ? 2. "When all these hopcles :
lives of hopeless misery are contemplated , '
said Mr. McQuold , "It was no strange thins
that Jesus wept. Ho felt their wretched
ness In his own breast and His attitude
should be ours. If it Is a weakness to weei
at others' misfortunes , It Is a weakness ol
which only great natures are capable and
men should not allow dally contact to de
stroy helpful sympathy. "

"Harvest Homo Festival" services wen
held at Trinity cathedral yesterday morning
in the presence of a largo congregation. Tin
direct beneficiary of the service was the
Clarkson Memorial hospital , for a collection
was taken for Uio Institution , the prayers
were mainly devoted to it , and the sermon
by Dean Fair centered upon it. The choli
rendered a special musical program.
Disease Is a certainty , the dean maintained
In the course of his remarks. Some people
claim that it is but a delusion and that there
Is no such thine as pain and suffering. On
the other hand , there Is a class that exag
gerates Its Infirmities or feigns disease. Yet
It Is certain that disease exists , but the dean
Insisted that there Is as much of a certainty
that cure for It exists. Ho dwelt upon the
great work of a physician In relieving suf
fering and then dwelt upon the valuable
assistants that the modern nge has given him
In the nurse and the hospital. The former
has become Indispensable in serious cases
and the latter Is rapidly becoming consid
ered so. In conclusion , ho spoke of the great
place that the Clarkson hospital his obtained
In the city.
"You should all visit It and see what a
great work It Is doing , " he declared. "Hi
physicians are the best and the most skill
ful and Its nurses are tender. In case ol
serious Illness in your family , especially ol
the children , you should secure the advan
tage It offers , for , however much you may
dlsllko to have your sick taken from you ,
you cannot glvo them such treatment as the
hospital can give. "
