I OUR WORK GOES ON It la ftttlne; thai we should recognize the comlortlug fact that each ono leaves bis owu littles bit of work on the great edlllce which Ood is rearing through the centuries, and which Is to be at lait fur Ills own ushliatlon through tho Spirit. ... In the words of the appropriate Inicilptlun on the monument to the Weslcys In Westminster Abbey, "Ood burled Ills workmen, but carries on His work." When Moses dies, Uod has Jo.-iua fully trained to Inl.e his place; when ICllJuh steps into the chariot that is to take blra to glory, Oud baa Kllsha there In readiness to receive his falling fall-ing mantle; when Stephen la atoned to death, I'aul Is prepared by Ood to tni.e up his mission. Thus, though the man iliaappeara, his work Is carried forward, and la. through the energising energis-ing influence of O'ifl's spirit, mads operative op-erative all through the agos. William M. Taylor.
