Before I get through that you fight in an around which in galleries above each all the kindling eyes and all the sympathetic hearts of the and at every victory gained there comes down the thundering applause of a great multitude that no man can Being compassed about with so great a cloud of On the first elevation of the ancient on the day of a cele sat Tiberius or Augustus or the reigning So in the groat arena of spectators that our struggles and in the first divine gal as 1 shall call sits our one On his head are many The Roman emperor got his place by coldblooded but our King hath come to His place by the broken hearts healed and the tears wiped away and the souls The Roman emperor with folded indifferent as to whether the swordsman or the lion but our Kings sympathies are all with unheard of condescension I see Him come down from the gallery into the arena to help us in the shout ing until all tip and down His voice is heard Fear not I will help thee I will strengthen thee by the right hand of My power They gave to the men in the arena in the olden time food to thicken their so that it would flow slowly and that for a longer time the people might gloat over the But our King has no pleasure in our for we are bone of His flesh of His blood of His Once in the ancient amphitheater a lion with one paw caught the combat ants sword and with his other paw caught his The man took his knife from his girdle and slew the The sitting in the gal said That was not The lion must be slain by a Other and the the the the the way up to the all the way up to the all the way up to the forti Every place is Immensity of audience sweeping the great cir The the con has A lloman official leads forth the victim into the Let him get his sword with firm grip into his right The sit breathlessly I hear the door at the side of the arena creak Out plunges the halfstarved his tongue athirst for and Svith a roar that brings all the gal leries to their feet he rushes against the sword of the Do you knowhow strong a stroke a man will strike when his life depends upon the first thrust of his blade The wild lame and his wasted strength he comes up with fiercer eye and more terrible roar than only to be driven back with a fatal Awhile the combatant comes in with after stroke until the mon Bter is dead at his and the 000 clap their hands and utter a that makes the city Sometimes the audience canae to bee a race sometimes to see gladi ators fight each until the peo compassionate for the turned their thumbs up as an appeal vanquished be and sometimes the combat was with wild To one of the Roman audiences of people Paul refers when he says We are com passed about with so great a cloud of The direct reference in the last passage is made to a race elsewhere having discussed 1 take now Pauls favorite idea of life as a The fact is that every Christian Inan has a lion to Yours is a bad The gates of the arena have been and this tiger has come out to destroy your It has you with many a iYou have been thrown by it time and but in the strength of God you have arisen to drive it I believe you will I think that the temptation is getting and You have given it so many wounds that the prospect is that it will and you shall be through brother Do let the sands of the arena drink the blood of your soul Your lion is the passion for strong You may have contended against it for 20 years but it is Btrong of body and thirsty of iYou have tried to fight it back with broken bottle or empty wine that is not the With one horrible roar he will seize thee by the throat and rend limb from Take this sharp and up and get it from Gods sword of the With that thou mayest drive back and conquer But why specify when every man woman has u lion to fight If be one here who has no beset ting lot him speak for him frave i If you have pot fought the it is because you let the lion out you This very moment tho contest goes Trajan where gladiators fought and wild were was not so terrific H struggle as that which at this mo ment goes on in many a The combat was for the life of the body is for tho life of the That with wild beasts from the juu this is with the roaring lion of Mi Men when tho contend an evil that they have fight it all NQ They in the center of au immense circle lions were turned and the poor victim You cry Shame shame at such But the King in this case is our and He will see that we have fair He will forbid the rushing out of more lions than we can He will not suffer us to be tempted above that we are Thank God The King Js in the gallery His eyes areon His heart is with His hand will deliver Blessed are they who put their trust in I look and I see the angelic There they are the angel that swung the sword at the gate of the same that Ezekiel saw up holding the throne of and from which I look for the splendor is Here are the guardian That one watched a patriarch this one protected a child that one has been pulling a soul out of temptation All these are messengers of light Those drove the Spanish armada on the This turned living host into a heap of Those yonder chanted the Christmas carol over Bethlehem until the chant awoke the These at creation stood in the balcony of Heaven and serenaded the newborn world wrapped in swaddling clothes of And holier and mightier han is the To command an earthly host gives dig but this one is leader of the 000 chariots of God and of the times I think God gives command to the and the archangel to the and the seraphim to the until all the lower orders of Heaven hear the command and go forth on the high bring on your lions Who can tear All the spectators in the angelic gallery are our He shall give His angels charge over to keep hee in all thy They shall bear thee up in their hands lest thou dash thy foot

mixing in companionship of those who on earth could not Thero is Albert Barnes and around him tho presbytery who tried him for hetero doxy Yonder are Lyman Beecher and the church court that denounced him Stranger than there are John Calvin and James Who would have thought that would sit so lovingly together There are George Whitefield and the ministers who would not let him come into their pulpits because they thought him a There are the sweet singers Charles Isaac Watts and If heaven had had no mu sic before they went they would have started the And there the band of talking of China redeemed and John of India saved and David of the aborigines evangelized j and Adoniram Jud whose prayers for Burma took heaven by violence All these Chris tians are looking into the Our struggle is nothing to theirs Do we in Christs cause suffer from the cold They walked Greenlands icy Do we suffer from the heat They sweltered in trop Do we get fatigued They faint with none to care for them but Are we persecuted They were And as they look from their gallery and see us falter in the presence of the lions I seem to hear Watts address ing us in his old only a little changed Must you be carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease While others fought to win the prize Or sailed through bloody seas shouts in his old hymn Tour ye trembling Down from the willows take Loud to the praise of love divine Bid every string While Charles the Metho breaks forth in words a little varied A charge to keep you A God to A never dying soul to save And fit it for the sky I look and I see the gallery of our Many

The culture of celery has spread over all the United Originally it was a mere garden being grown in very small its culture has so extended that it may be considered both a gar den and a field It is

uplands is frequently of better The time of seed sowing depends when the celery is wanted for To get an early crop seed can be sown in the house as early as The soil is kept moist and the boxes away from When the plants begin to appear they should be gradually ac customed to the It is better to transplant them once or twice before removing them to the open The soil must be made if good results are The plant foods most used are nitrogen and When the plants are about ten inches the celery that is wanted for fall use should be banked up to blanch and this operation should be repeated as the
