J. F. Kerb. Local Agent. When men recognize that all havoono oom-mon father and that all havo common reason to guide in soarohing out God and that between man and his God thoro is something in common by which God takes hold of and man takes hold of God, then when man thus lookB upon God is ho on the highway that leads to truth.

Such was tho view of the old Greeks In their untiring search for truth. Such was the belief of Socrates. Ho thought all to to children of one father, Ho believed that there wna a common bond between God und man. And through this bond ho was so linked with the divine that there was a divinity within himself which restrained him from evil and encouraged toward the good. By snrronding himself to reason Socrates peno -trated farther into the recesses of the human soul that any man of Greeco unaided by othrt who blazed rut the way.

Plato nnd Aristotle gathered up "11 th" homing of their times and named it, ii own respective moulds in such a way lhat ti-i formed two rival schools, dividing the church in after centuries into Platonic and Aristotelian. The old Greek philosophers in their searoh for truth laid the foundation for aU modern thought. Truth is the gold. The philosopher's stone which turns everything it touches into gold. Truth is the most glorious thing; the least filling of this gold is Truth is ancient! its gray hairs may make it venerable it comes from him who is the Ancient of Days.

Truth is unerring; it is the star which leads to Christ. Truth is pure. It is compared to silver seven times. There is not the least spot on truth's face. It breathes nothing but sanctity.

Truth is triumphant. It is like a groat conqueror when all its enemies lie dead, it keepB the field, and sets up its trophies of victories. Truth may be opposed but never quite deposed. In the time of Diocletian, things seemed desperate, truth ran low; soon after was the golden time of Censtan. this, and then truth did again lift np its head.

When the water in the Thames is lowest a high tide is ready to come in. God is on truth's side, and so long as there is no fear but it will prevail. The heavens being on fire shall be dissolved but not that truth that came from heaven, company, OF ENTERPRISE, KANSAS. Union EASTWARD. No.

Here was a new source of that which had been thoiobject of search by the Greeks and ltomans. Here was the Tory thing for which Pilate longed. Without waiting to hear the response of the marvelous prisoner before him he gave expression to the longing of hie own soul in the clear ringing qnestion: "What is truth?" Away he went to the hypocritical Jews outside and declared: "I find in him no fault at all." Here was the inquiry after truth addressed to Truth Himself by a man who expressed the longing of his soul but waited not for truth to answer. There are two kinds of truth-relative and absolute.

Relative truth is that which is true for the individual or species. Absolute truth is that which is true for all intelligent beings everywhere. We can conceive things true to us in our present state and circumstances which would net be true under other circumstances. With our present sense of eight the heavens are a blue vault showing the sun the sole monorch by day while at night Tiie same vault is studded with thousands of sparkling eyes.

WELLer, Central College, Enterprise, Kansas, June 5, The Search for Truth. "What is John xviii 38, Pilate was tho ltoman Procurator of Judea, sent out by tho Roman government to control the affairs of the Jews and collect the revenues through the publicans or tax gatherors. The very presence of the ltoman ruler was an offence to the Jews a sign of his submission to a foreign power. Being continually in authority over those who hate a man will blunt his finer sensibilities and make him slow to accept their language or religion. Such was the hardening influence upon the ltoman Governors of Judea The Jew hated tho Koman and as a hater of tho man he conld not reach his heart and win him to tho roligion of the Bible.

The keen ready eye of tho Koman was ever ready to see any new turn of the Jews against his nation. The governor had Been so many cruel revolts and murders that his estimate of tho Jewish re. ligion could not be high, Pilate no doubt thought of Christ and his disciples as a sect of the Jowish religion. The governor cared nothing for the difference in the sects of the Jewish religion except as they might tend to harmnoy or discord in tho Jewish nation. When a man sent out by Home could control his province well and avoid tumults he retained his position, When he allowed tumults to arise he was in danger of loosing Ms position.

Pilate's chief care was that he might please the Jews and thus by having their confidence control them successfully for the llomun government Hje sharod with tho rest of the heathen world in ipe search for truth.
