Cobb—Good Sized Congregation at Church of The Good Shepherd—Five Churches Unite for Services. At the Church of the Good Shepherd | on Tuesday evening was held the sec-, ond of the unfon services for Holy | ‘week In which five of the churches in | the center of the city are uniting. | There was a congregation of good | proportions present and the sermon ‘was by the pastor of the church, Rev. ! J, F. Cobb. Participating in the ser-: vice also were the pastors of the other churches, including Rev. E. S. Worces- ter of Proadway_ _ Congregational | church, Rev. H. J. Wyckoff of the Second Congregational church, Rev. Dr. .J B. Slocum of the Cenrtral Bap- | tist church and Rev. F. W. Coleman of | Trinity Methodist Episcopal church. Rev. Mr. Cobb spoke upon the theme | A Saviour Sought by the Nations, | taking as his text the verse Sir, we would see Jesus. He referred to the Biblical accounts showing that men of all classes, Jews, Greeks, Samaritans, as well as people | of ali classes of society, desired to see | Jesus, who at first proclaimed that he | was come to the lost sheep of the house of Israel, but later widenkd his mission to take in all the world. - | The preacher went on to say_that this Jesus is the author of ihat religion which is to become world-wide, and capable of assimilating that which Is the best in the spiritual thought and experience of each succeeding age. There is a threefold cord that will draw the whole worid to God; this cord Jesus the Christ possesses. The first strand of that cord 1s power 1o nform | men as to their real status, to eniighten the world, to declare the iruth, all the | truth that is needful for moral guid- ance and spiritual uplift. The second strand of that cord is power to supply motive, to generate & passion for rightejusness, to make men want to do what they have been taught they ought to do. The third strand of the cord is power to increase strength, to restore the spent vitality, to recrown the wili power, and enable a man to do what he wants to do and ought to do. As knowledge saves from ignorance, | and truth from error, therefore Jesus | gave that knowledge of truth tiat | would banish error and ignorance, ! hence sin. He would tear the mask | from hypocrisy He was a contr to enlightenment, “the prophet of teiligence and a patron of research.’ In his thought the principal thing “to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness.” This kingdom he set himself to in- troduce, in its nearness and glory, to the apprehension and aspiration of men. tor It is this Jesus who can satisfv the need of the soul. We mention briefly four ways in which he sausfies the noed of the soul. The first Is that men have always, when they have come to a consciousness of the enslaving and ruining power of sin, sought some way of deliverance. One way is open, and that is through Jes Education is £ood, but not sufficient, for an educated bad man is a terror to his own community and his race. Morals are good, but not whoily ade- quate: Jesus sald to the moral young man: “Ye must be born agaw.” D i tion is good, but is not of supreme jm- out | | l | | portance, for devotion from a he of harmony with God is mocke: Jesus whom the people asked to see and wished to know, removes the ob- stacles that come in the way of man's coming to God and brings him into harmony with God’s will and purpose. Secondly, men need a positive stand- ard of righteousness, and this need is satisfied by this same Jesus who is the | Christ. He shows men how to work out a redeemed life. Man may see hin ag yielding up his life on the cross for him, but he may alSo sce him as a human Lord who helps in daily life, for there are temptations to be over- come, a character to be builded, a des- ! the Christ reve: | fluenced _every | rica, tiny to be wrought out, and the soul of man in its better moments longs for goodness, righteousness and truth. For these Jesus sets the standard. In his heroic life, iived amid the strife of temptation, he conguered. And men through the ages since and even today longing for the mgnest and nobiest life have found it in Christ only. The third way in which the Christ satisfies the soul of man is by giving sympathy in sorrow. There is human sorrow_on every hand among all peo- ples. But this Jesus gives sympathy. No burdened soul ever appealed to him in vain for sympathy. And as of old he brought the sweet balm of consola- tion to the grief stricken, so today he brings to the sorrowing soul the sym- pathy of his own compassmonate hear. The fourth way in which the Christ satisfles the scul of man is by giving assurance of eternal life. As those of old heard, may not the people of today hear those sure and certain words of this Jesus, the Saviour of the world: “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it abundant- ly. Iam the resurrection and the life; he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; and he that liveth and believeth in me shali never This is the voice of one having authority who speaks to the perplexed and longing soul the certain words of eternal hope. This Jesus when death was nigh, al- though when the words of the tempie were spoken there were only three days before he would be lifted up on the cross, @id not allow his faith and hope to diminish. As he had previously said that the doing of his Father's will was more to him than meat, at this time he said it is more to him than life. Down through the ages since then there has been a desire to have Jesus d, and this is now through his' gospel, through ) has touched and in- land and every clime.

LIFE IS BARREN WITH UNBELIEF. Says Rev, J. H. Strouse at Y. M. C, A. Shop Meeting. Rev. G. H, Strouse spoke at the . M, G, A. shop meeting Tuessday noon held in the International Silver company. On the subject Sin of Un- bellef, he said in part: Last Sunday was Palm Sunday and we thought of the royal entry into Je- rusalem. It i{s sometimes called the triumphant journey, but it had little of triumph for Christ. A triumph that lasts but a few hours isn’t worthy of the name. In flve days Jesus was going to die. That journey was but the prelude to his death. During that brief day of seeming triumph Jesus wept as he saw the city of Jerusalem in all its external beauty and prosper- ity. Why did Christ weep? Because he didn't see some things he wanted to see. And onme of those things I'm going to mention today. Sunday night was spent by Jesus in Bethany. Monday morning he started for Jerusalem. Christ was hungry. He was human as well as divine. Way in the distance he saw a fig tree. The tree was covered with leaves and at a distance its green mantle seemingly touched the tree. Jesus looked for fruit. There was none to be found. Some of last year’s fruit might be hidden away beneath the leaves. There was none. On some trees in Palestine the fruit appears before the leaves. There were leaves on this tree, but no fruit. None of last year's fruit and no hope of any this year. With one command from the lips of Jesus: “Let there be no fruit from thee hence- forward forever.” “And immediate the fig tree withered away Monday passes after a busy day of teaching and Jesus retires to Beth: Tuesday morning with his dis s Jesus starts again for Jerusalem. On the way they pass the fiz tree. Peter says to Jesus: “Master, behold the fig tree which thou cursest is withered away.” Notice = w! Jesus said: “Have faith in God The fig tree was beautiful and ex- ternally made a spiendid show. But in’ reality it was dead. What use is a V. tree was the type of a great nation. Year by year they went up to worship in the temple. BEvery feast was ob- served and externally the nation made a fair show of righteousness. But there was no real life. No faith in God. Therefore its barrenness. At last God had sent Son_to gather the fruits of his vinevard. But the fruits of righteousness were sadly missing. Men, jt's difficult to name a sin mora displeasing to God than unbelief. If we haven't any h in God there i=n't any real living. And the awful re- of unbelief is a barren life. WIRELESS EXPERT. Percy B. Smith Now at Bethel—Sent Aid from New London to Steamer Onta Percy B. Smith, the telegraph oper- ator at the railroad station at Bethel, is an expert in wireless telegraphy and passes his leisure hours evenings in listening to messages which he picks up on the apparatus which he hi in- stalled at his home at the Putnam house. Mr. Smith was emploved as wireless operator on a number of ships and at land stations. previous to coming to Bethel. and is thoroughly conversant with the continental code, reading it with as great ease as the Morse or wire code. While in charge of the land station in New London, March, 1911, he caught the “S. O.'S.” or distress cail at three o'clock one morning.

The ravages of catarrh will in time wreck the health of even the strongest person. Besides catarrh is 50 unpleasant—it malkes your life mis- erable and annoys your friends. At the first catarial sympton surely use Hyomei. It's the right-to-the-point remedy—you breathe it—no nauseating drugs to upset your stomach. Hyomei is a combination of anti- septic oils that you breathe into the nose, throat and lungs in the natural way. Just put a few drops into the inhaler and breathe it in. The germi- cidal fumes mix with the air and at once penetrate to all nooks and crevices | of the mucous membrane. It destroys the dangerous germs that may be lurk- ing in the delicate tissues, and imme- diately soothes and heals the raw and inflammed membrane. The Lee & Osgood Co. sells Hyomei with an agreement to refund the pur- chase price to anyone who is not bene- fited. You surely can afford to try it on an offer like this. All druggists have it.
