The forces for and against Christ are gathering in new line of battle. The” good increasingly triumphs. Christ is today exalted as never before. The world’s welfare is continually advanced, “Yet there remain sins, evils, woes which, in themselves, are more than enough to make the whole head sick and the whole heart faint. Multitudes of souls are under the divine condemnation. Light has come, yet they love darkness rather than light. Society is marred by wrongs and rent by strifes, which the full presence of the Kingdom would remove. Nations are largely in the bondage of selfishness and bitter pride, They are far from the universal acceptance of the Golden Rule. ‘The whole world, though moving toward the promised day, still groans and travails in pain. ~~ “Let us, therefore, unitedly, earnestly, penitently plead “with God for the hastening of Messiah’s reign. Let us plead forthe saving of souls, for the Christianizing of the nations, and forthe doing of God’s will on earth as ‘it is done in heaven, If we are of one accord before the throne of the heavenly grace, praying by both deed and word, God will hear our prayer.

It is not improbable that the {dea comes from combinations of barrooms and restaurants, in the latter of which of course coffee is sold, but to our mind nothing seems more absurd or more emphatically marks the modern disposition to follow blind custom than sticking up on the window where only beer, liquor and wines are sold the word “coffee,” and that in a foreign language.

two-fold assurance that true prayer is needful, and that such prayer will be favorably answered. “There are manifold and measureless incentives to the intercession which thus prevails, The conflict of. good and evil visibly increases in intensity. The forces for and against Christ are gathering in new line of battle. The” good increasingly triumphs. Christ is today exalted as never before. The world’s welfare is continually advanced, “Yet there remain sins, evils, woes which, in themselves, are more than enough to make the whole head sick and the whole heart faint. Multitudes of souls are under the divine condemnation. Light has come, yet they love darkness rather than light. Society is marred by wrongs and rent by strifes, which the full presence of the Kingdom would remove. Nations are largely in the bondage of selfishness and bitter pride, They are far from the universal acceptance of the Golden Rule. ‘The whole world, though moving toward the promised day, still groans and travails in pain. ~~ “Let us, therefore, unitedly, earnestly, penitently plead “with God for the hastening of Messiah’s reign. Let us plead forthe saving of souls, for the Christianizing of the nations, and forthe doing of God’s will on earth as ‘it is done in heaven, If we are of one accord before the throne of the heavenly grace, praying by both deed and word, God will hear our prayer.

The term means coffee, or a place. where eoffee is sold, and what relation there is between a coffee shop and a place where Mquors are sold we are at a loss to know. It is not improbable that the {dea comes from combinations of barrooms and restaurants, in the latter of which of course coffee is sold, but to our mind nothing seems more absurd or more emphatically marks the modern disposition to follow blind custom than sticking up on the window where only beer, liquor and wines are sold the word “coffee,” and that in a foreign language.
