Celebration of Louisiana l'urchase. Preparations are already well ad- vanced on the project for celebrating In 1902 the one bundredth anniversary of the Loulsian purchase, whleb may be regarded as one of the half dozen most Important events In the history of the United States. The event will be celebrated with an exposi fon at St. Louis, which, while a world's fair In the seuse established at Philadelphia. Chicago and Poris, will derive its dis- tinctive feature from exhibit> illustrat- Ing the progress and prosperity of the states carved out of the semicontiuen- tal wilderness acquired by Jefferson from France only 100 years ago.

Future of Young l'eople. Early associations and friendships almost sutely determine the future of young people. Rev. J. R. Miller, Pres- byterian, Philadelphio.

Salvnilon of a Sonl,

What saves a sutl is the application of truth to human bife und character lu such a way as to create righteousness and irtte holiness. Rev. Madison C. Peters, Baptist. New York.

Progress of Vunkind.

Mankind i> under the faw of evolu. don. Whether he will or not, hr must progress. The world Is getting better In spite of the omitious prophecies of the pessitulsts. Rev. Kranskopf, Rab bi, Philadelphia.

Vew Idea of Christ.

The new Idea of Christ Is that his Itte should permeate the very Ilves uf wen; that he is the emhodlment of God's conception of what man Is to become,- Rev. R. Heber Newton. Epls- copallan, New York.

Value of the Better Life. If we want a better press or a better edttrational system or better politics or whler and truer charities, the church must first errate the better life mut of which these may spring. Rev. W. e. Madison, Methodist, Denver.

Valne of Jeans' Example.

Jesuis' example keeps fresh and allve the enthusiasm of our early Ideals and makes us dare to trust find and right wheu worblliness and unworthy ambi- tions tempt us with their gilded prizes. -Rev Richard E. Sykes. Universallst. Denver

Compassion of Christ.

Our age needs most of all the Christ spirit of compasslon that would not senil the multitude nway hungry, but would open all the great rtores of plen ty. of culture, of liberty, of justlee, of humanity, that every soul might be fed. Would you know the life, the peace of God, open your bearts to the compassion of the Christ .- Rev. Dr. H. W. Thomas. People's Church. Chicago. Life In Paradise.

The paradise life will be one of sin- lessuess. The condition immediately following death Is not a preparation for a higher life In the sense that saints are to be kept there until they are pre- pared for a better life.
