the law of our owu being we will not sın. The more we study the life of Christ the more we will learn the law at our own being and be inspired to live up to it. Again, Jesus became the true standard of manhood by the fact that He overcame difficulties and rose above the conditions by which He was hemmed in socially. He rose above the obstacles which came in He sur- His way from poverty, environment and the selfishness of the Jews mounted all obstacles, and with no fam- ily prestige. no social standing, no in- struction from voted rabbies and no po- litical influence, He pushed His way up- ward to the perfect life with the same persistency that the plant forces its way through the hard ground into the light of day. He also became the standard of true manhood by choosing as supreme in His life the highest possible principle of action, viz , love, and by so adhering to this principle as to give to the world the highest example of heroism ever known. He might have made a selfish choice, but He spurued all false inducemeuts and re- mained firm to the highest principle of right moral actiou. He was the one matebless hero of bistory. Tbe pilot of the Galilean lake so piloted His life that it knew but one direction, it had but oue compass. it sought but one end. George Macdonald has said, "God never gave a man a thing to do concerning which it were Irrevereut to ponder how the Son of God would have done it." As Dr. Sbel- don puts it, "What would Jesus do?" In seeking true manhood He is our stand- ard. With His teacbing aud life we can approximate the true manhood be pos- sessed, if we will but try.

Gov. Taylor of Tennessee Effectunily Ended the Interferencr of Legislators,

Gov. Bob Taylor, of Tennessee, was just exactly opposite to Gov. Allen, with as tender a heart as a woman, and the way he pardoned out con- viets was something awful. He waa waited upon by a committee of the legislature, who very flatly and in no uncertain way told him that this "wholesale pardoning must stop."

"Gov'ner Boh" looked at the com mittee, tapped a bell, asked for bis pardon clerk. and when he came, said: "Make out pardons for every man in the penitentiary."

The clerk bowed and withdrew. Then the governor looked at the com- mittee, who were staring as if they thought he was going mad.

"Gentlemen," he said, finally. "I am governor of Tennessee, and if this committee or any other ever again seeks to interfere with my constitu- tional right to pardon I'll sign every one of those pardons which the clerk Is making out. Good morning."
