tence involving both qmilliy and qmtn-
tlty. The <]iisi lii ,v 1

Lite Is Knowledge.
Life lias been defined as the func-
tioning of an organism with its envir
onment. All life therefore is a form ]
of knowledge, and is high or low, i
broad or narrow, in acetirdanee with
the environment that is apprehended. !
The worm has a low order of life lie-1
cause ils environment is simply the |
soil. The worm knows nothing lint
mud, and that by the one sense of I
touch. Bird life is higher thaii worm j
life. The hird knows the earth and
the air, the sky and the clouds, and
has de!l«ht In the fellowship and song
of Its mates. Man's life is the highest
of earthly creatures, because his range
of knowledge Is the widest. Tie knows
more about the earth than the worm,
and more Mhout air and cloud and sk.v
than can the bird. He apprehends the
conditions of liis own country and age
and then sweeps in thought the con-
ditions of other lands and times. He
multiplies Ills seienees until these em-
brace the multiplied facts of earth anil
air and sky. He forms his philoso-
phies dealing with the mystery of ex
lstence. Man's life Is thus the highest
of the earthly ereatiwi because the
wiliest In knowledge.

tality has the supporting irflii'-n e of
the flowing stream. Let timer vital-
ity he impaired. « r let the stream'run
dry, death ntit^i follow. In tike milli-
ner man has a political life when bis
soul interests lire awake to political
surroundings, and when these sur-
roundings minister to a eon I i titled In-
terest. Let there lie a change toward
indifference in the soul of the man. ot
some separation from political sur-
roundings, and there is nil end of
what we term political life. Alan's
spiritual life has in It the element of
the eternal because his fellowship i*
with the, eternal God. Through regen-
eration the soul of ninn Is ntitile alive
by the life of God. In Christian liv-
ing the soul of tnan abides in contact
with the living God. The conditions ot
an endless existence are therefore fur-
nished. The redeemed soul bus in it
the life of God ntifl has for Its envir-
onment -God himself the eternal one.
The conditions for both a happy ami
:tti endless experience are therefore
furnished through the Gospel of ,lesti«
Chris'
Knowledge That Is Life.
The knowledge of Ood which con-
stitutes eternal life is u personal
knowledge. God may be known me-
ehanh-nlly through his works just as
men may be known through the build-
ings they have erected. Men tna.v be
known biographieally in the story of
their accomplishments-, hut this is nof
the same as ,-t personal acquaintance.
To know Abraham Lincoln (ls the au-
thor of the Emancipation Proclama-
tion is a way of knowing hiin, but he
was known in a better and personal
way by soldiers who received his par
don when through excessive weariness
they fell asleep on sentry duty. To
know God is to rejoice in his father-
hood and to feel the thrill of sonship
through faith in Jesus Christ. Immor-
tality involves an endless blessedness
in the knowledge of God. Human pa-
rents are powerless to prolong the
lives of their children. The eternal
God is Lord of life. The risen Christ
will never withdraw his supporting
life from the redeemed soul. "Hp that
hath the son hath the life: he that
hath nof the son of God huth not the
life." no matter what else he may
have in world knowledge or culture.
Cannot Live for Self Alone.
So mysteriously are we linked with
others in this world of mystery that
we eannot fall In our duty without
harming others, nor bear ourselves
bravely that others e not benefited.
