No doubt tho most unpromising theme may be made fruitful of good, as surely as the dullest preacher may teach us patience. pa-tience. Hut there is too much of the "variety of attraction spirit iu the notices of Sunday services and sermons. We cannot can-not pass along the street without seeing see-ing placards announcing the sensational sensation-al topic of next Sunday's sermon or the distinguished artists who are to form the principal attraction in buildings build-ings which were once thought to be houses of prayer. I recognize tho gen-trosiiy gen-trosiiy ami kindness of those who thus leud ttieir talents and gifts to the promotion pro-motion of some good object. Far be it from me to suggest that any gift may not be consecrated to the service of (iod aud to the highest good of mankind, man-kind, lint for all that the modem development de-velopment of sensationalism in church appears to me to have a larga admix- tore of the flavor of Bdvcrtis-liieut.and suggest the desperation whicfi clutches at a cheap aud shallow success of (in a bad sense) a popular service, instead of the calm earnestness which seeks to beuelit the people and the church of God. Here we may, perhaps, reach what may pass for a definition. The scope of tho preacher's work is to bring l lie heavenly into tho earthly to bring the divine near to the human, lie thus can become the restorer of a sort of poetry to life. The world may be too much with us, but ou the Sunday at least the preacher will remind us of the light w hich never whs yet always is on sea am! or. land. To fa. I to put this divina touch upon the weal ted and wandering lives of men is to fail In preaching. To send people home amused a ad interested is not an aim. ti-itrucWsad teach if you will; interest them if you can; beguile them from the overmuch sadness of life, if you think well; but strive above all to let them return to their toil with the deeper conviction of the eternal realities, a profotinder sense of tho spiritual education of this life and a more tender and unwavering persuasion of the nearness of Him in whose uresis ures-is fullness of joy aud iu the knowledge of whom is denial life.
