Excuses for Not
Being Saved
By REV. JAMES M. GRAY, D.D.
Dean of the Moodv Bible Institute
of Chicago
TEXT-Lord I will follow thee, but-"-Ltike
9:C1.
This Is what a good many pcoplo
arc saying In their hearts If not with
tholr Hps. Thoy
know the Gospol
plan of salvation.
Thoy know thoy
must beltovd on
the Lord Jesus
Christ In order to
bo saved, and
thoy know that
when thoy do be.
Hovo ou him with
their hearts they
will follow him In
their lifo and con
duct.
T h o latter ig
something thoy
do not wish to dq
becauso it means
a turning away from things In whicV
they now find profit or pleasure
Thoy do not reckon on tho fact tha
when they truly bollovo on tho Lord
Josus ChriBt thoy will recolvo a clean
heart and havo renewed within them
a right spirit. When a man is thua
regenerated ho no longer wishes to
do tho things he Used to do and finds
it easy to follow Christ.
In their struggle to put off the day
of decision they frame various ex
cuses, liko tho man of the text who,
when our Lord Bald unto him: "Fol
low mo," replied: "Lord 1 will fol
low thco, but let mo ilrst go bid them
farewell, which aro at my homo."
Ordinarily thoro could bo no objection
to a man's doing that, but on this
occasion tho command of Christ was
peremptory, and tho man's action
would determino at once whother ho
preferred his family to Christ. Thoro
comes a time in every man's lifo whon-
ho must decido this question, and de
termine in the presence of his own
soul and in tho prosenco of God
whether God comes first or not.
Hypocrites in the Church.
1. Somo say there are so many hyp
ocrites In tho church, forgetting that
thero aro many hypocrites in tho
business or profession by which they
earn their livolthotd, and yet they
do not renounce that business or pro
fession. ,
A good way to meet this objection
is to nsk whether' thoy think hypo
crites will go to heaven? Ab they
will certainly answor, no, then it
might bo asked whether thoy them
selves can go to heaven without
Christ. As thoy must roply to this
question, as well as to the other, in
tho negative, they will bo brought
to seo that they must dwell with hypo
crites throughout eternity unless thoy
become saved.
Tho inquiry brings to mind tho caso
of a certain man who wa3 always giv
ing this reason' for not accepting
Christ. And yet his faithful wlfo
heard him cry In the night more than
once: "God, bo merciful to me, a
sinner." It is a sad thing for a soul
under conviction of sin, to cast away
tho hopo of salvation for so flimsy a
reason as tho presence of hypocrites
in tho visible church.
Giving Up or Taking On, Which?
2. Others hesltato to accept Christ
because they think thoy will havo so
much to give up. 13ut they aro ig
norant of the fact that tho Christian
life is from every point ot view a gain
rather than a loss. You glvo up sin,
but you take holiness. You give up
sorrow, but you take Joy. You give
up death, but you take life. You give
up self, but you take God.
D. L. Moody used to toll of a soap
manufacturer who was under convic
tion of sin, but hesitated to accept
Christ. Ho pressed him for a rea
son, and at last he said It was his
business that kept him back. "That
soap," said he, "will do everything 1
claim for It, but tho fact is It will de
stroy tho clothes. Now if I accept
Christ, I must glvo it up."
Hero was a plain issuo which many
another man has had to faco, but
what folly it is to hesltato a moment
which way to decido! Moreover,
many a man has given up his business
for Christ and found afterward that
Christ had a great deal better busi
ness to glvo him than ho had over
dreamed of; for, as the HIblo says,
"Godliness Is profitable unto all
things, having promise of tho lifo that
now la and of that which is to come."
3. "I am afraid i won't hold out,"
la anotllcr vory common oxcuso. Hut
tho mistake hero lies In tho fact that
tho man ia thinking of his own
strength instead of. to strength of
tho Savior.
Thero is a Latin motto on tho
facade of a Y. M. O. A. building In
New England that sots this truth be
fore us vory tersely and beautifully.
Tho words uro "Toneo et teneor,"
which means, "I hold and am hold."
It suggests tho picture of a strong
man with a child In his arm ascend
ing a dangerous c"ff. Tho child Is
clinging to tho man, but it is becauso,
the man is holding the child that the
latter makes tho ascfint with safety.
In like manner tho faith of tho believ
er causes him to cling to Jesus Christ,
hut it is Jesus Chulst that keeps and
saves him to the end.
Let us not bo afraid to accept him
as our Savior and follow hlil' as tu.'
Lord.
One of the surest keys to surecss
lies In thoroughness!. No mutter how

tho mixture into buttered gem pans;
let riso lfi minutes and bake 'quickly.
Thoy will not need to bo warmed
over.
Canned Poas With Fresh Carrots.

ters lengthwise, then in plecos an inch
long and ono-fourth inch wide. Lot
simmer with barely water to cover;
add peas that havo been reheated to
the carrots, season with sugar, salt,
butter and lemon Juice.
Baked Milk. Baked milk is a deli
cacy often recommended for Invalids.
Put milk In a stono Jar, cover closoly
and let It bake Blowly for several

somewhat like Devonshire cream. It
may be served as a custard or In com

together two cupfula each of cooked
asparagus and shredded lettuco with
a tablcspoouful of ollvo oil and a tea
spoonful of vinegar. Mix with a boiled

the peelings. Bake until tender, then
peel them; place In a covered dish

sauce with butter and thin cream and
flour for thickening, season well and

ELECTABLE SWEETS.
Many times a dessert is mora
appealing because of its daintiness,
rather than becauso of
its nutritive valuo, so a
light dessert Is much
better for tho averago
diner, as ho is usually
apt to cat too much.
Tho following dessert,
however, Is quito nutrl
tolus, Italian Cream. Mix a
pint of rich cream with
a cupful of milk and sweeten with four
tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar. Add
half a cupful of extract of bitter al
mond and a gill of rose water. Beat
theso well together, then stir In an

cake in slices, spread with different
kinds of preserves or Jam and put
them togethor again. Place in a deep
glass dish and pour over enough fruit
julco of any kind to soak tho cako
well, then cover with apricot or straw
berry Jam. Mako a rich custard of
a pint of milk, a pleco of cinnamon,
and rind of lemon, and four eggB;
cook until thick, not forgetting to
add salt and sugar to taste. When the
custard is cold pour over tho cako
and cover all with sweetened whipped
cream, flavoring with two tablespoon
fuls of marlschlno and garnish with
tho cherries. This Is truly quite
elegant and elaborate.
Milanese Ice. Mako a quart of rich
boiled custard, making it quite sweet,
add a tablespoonful of softened gel
ntln and when cool turn into a freozor,
stir, and as soon as it becomes thick
stir in a cupful of stoned raisins, soft

WHOLESOME RHUBARB.
Though a vegetable, rhubarb Is used
In every respect as a fruit. It Is stim
ulating, refreshing
and acts as a too
to rheumatism nnd
gout; It is also a
complexion beau
tiller. As a medi
cine Its valuo Ib
well known, for
fow havo escaped
a dose of tho bitter root. Ono of tho
simplest of ways to servo rhubarb as
a dossert Is to place slices ot buttered
bread in n baking dish, alternating
with finely cut rhubarb and sugar
with n dash of nutmeg If liked; baka
until the rhubarb Is soft.
Rhubarb Sponge. Line a mold with
slices of spougo cake, fill tho mold
with stowed rhubarb, not too moist;
cover tho top with slices of cako and
cover with a plato with a weight for
a few hours, when tho Julco of tho
rhubarb will all be absorbed. Turn
out vory carefully and servo with a
custard.
Rhubarb Jelly. Wash and cut Into
Bhort lengths one pound of rhubarb.
Stow until tender with six heaping
tablespoonfuls ot sugar and tho thinly
pared rind of half a lemon. Hub
through a slcvo, add threo heaping
tablespoonfuls of golntln, dissolved
in ono cupful ot boiling water, a few
drops of red coloring, mix well and
pour Into n mold. Turn out when llrm
and serve with sweetened whipped
cream. Tho red color will not bo nec
essary to add If tho rhubarb has n
pink skin. Leave that on wlillo It is
cooking.
Rhubarb Ice Cream. Put a quart
of rhubarb Into a saucepan with ono
cupful of water and six tablespoonfuls
of sugar or more as It seems best; al
low it to cook until tho rhubarb is
tender, then rub through a slovo. Add
one tablespoonful of ginger extract,
and a llttlo red coloring, mix with a
pint of whipped and sweetened cream,
or a custard may bo added Instead of
tho cream. Freezo as usual.
Rhubarb Compote. Wash and cut
the stalks into live-Inch lengths. Mako
a rich sirup of sugar and when boiling
drop in the rhubarb; cook until ten
dor, then remove carefully to a glass
dish and pour tho sirup over. Each
length should be unbroken. Serve
cold with lady fingers and cream.

When making chicken pie a slice of

The Effects of Opiates.

other narcotics to children by any but a physician cannot bo too strongly

SCHEME PROVED A FAILURE
right-Fisted Old Gentleman More Than
Met His Match In Shrewd
Physician.
A tight-fisted old man, feeling vory
sick, asked n friend to recommend a
physician. The friend named a cer
tain specialist.
"Is he very expensive?" asked the
sick man.
"Well, not so very. He'll charge
you four dollars for the first visit and
two dollars for each one after that."
Tho old fellow soon nfterwnrd
walked Into tho ofllce ot the physician
named by his friend, and upon being
admitted to the consulting room
plunked down two dollars, remarking:
"Well, doctor, here I am again."
Tho physician calmly picked up tho
money and put It In a drawer, which
he locked securely. The sick man
looked on expectantly, awaiting tho
next move.
"Well, I'm ready to bo cxnmlned,"
ho said nt length."
"I don't think It's necessary," re
plied the shrewd specialist. "There's
no need to do It again. Keep right
on taking tho same medicine. Good
day, Blr."
