"Billy" Sunday preached laat night on
The Moral Leper," taking his tet.
"But th Man Wss a Lrper " The raa
gvlist aaid:
I hav sometime tried ta Imagine my
self In Damascus on wlfw day. and
have seen a man riding on a hnra richly
caparisoned with trappings of (old and
silver, and ha himself clothed In gar
ments of the finest fabrics and th moat
costly, but with a faoe ao aad and mel
ancholy that It would cause the beholder
to turn and took a second and third time
And a man unaccustomed to aurh went
might have been heard to make a re
mark like Una: "How unequally Vod
aecma to divide hla farorat There la a
man who rides and othera walk; he I
clothed to Crtetly garment: they are al
moet naked while ho la welt fed," and
they contrast the difference between the
man on tha horse and the othera. If we
July knew the breaking hearta of the
poil we envy we would pity them from
the bottom of our sou la.
I waa bring driven through a suburb
of Chicago by a real estate man who
wanted to aell I no a lot, lie .waa telling'
me who lived here and who lived there,
and what an honor It would be for me
and my children to poaeeea a home there.
Wa ware driving part a home that muat

I pity that boy or girl from the depth

to pay for It. There waan't much In It;
I could load It In two furniture vane,
