"I wonder if Bobby's money has anything to do with Gladys Charteris warm welcome?" said Helen to me. "Don't get: cynical, Helen," I has- tened to admonish her. 'Take your friends for just what they give you, and remember that time erases ev- erything." "Everything, but prejudice, said Helen softly. "It sometimes softens even preju- dice," I insisted. "You -know the old saying that the only changeless thing in this world is change." "Then why should we clirg to the old things. Why not accept this die tum of incessant change and make the best of it?" a am going to try to," I answer ed. "That's a brave resolve," was He- len's comment. "Guess I'll do the same. 1 suppose it's just a case of not being able to eat your cake and have it, too." "A man would say, Helen, 'What is cake good for it not to eat?' " 5 oo Sours on the World. "Yes," laughed Helen, "and a wo- man says: 'I'm going to save mine for some future day when I'm hun- grier for take than I am now." Then if it gets moldy and hard in the keep- ing, she mourns the loss and sours on the world."

"Would youse ladies like to hf' ma cha' by de day?!" The little darky's white teeth glepamed. He had evidently enjoyed our laughter, too. , "Yes," Helen answered quickly, as she handed him a tip. "We'd like to have the use of your chair by the day while we stay. You can come to the hotel at 9 o'clock in the morn- ing and we will give you the orders for the 'day."

When she came out of her room and we met in the hallway, I saw her tucking away the envelop of a tele gram in her low cor while a tender smile hovered about her lips.

"Oh," exclaimed Helen, "they will just complete your costume. I am not sure but that John's way of expregés- ing his loneliness is better an Bobby's." [ Again I let her think that John had sent the flowers, although I was more than sufe that I knew whence they came. I really did not want to wear them but I had no way of refusing to pin them on my gown because Helen, thinking they were from John, would mentally accuse me of being cold or unforgiving. The flowers, dear innocent things, did 2dd much to my costume, and Helen and I had the satisfaction of knowing that we created rather a sensation as we entered the dining room, Surprised to, Happy. The food tasted the best to me of any 1 had had since my illness, and I was quite surprised to realize how happy I was and how little the state of affairs with John affected me. A man friend of Helen's and Bob- by's made his way to our table and asked us if we would accompany him to one*of the hotels to dance that evening, He said' Bobby had sent him a long telegram that day, asking him to look out for us. "I didn't know how much Gaylord was putting me in his debt," he said, with a courtly bow. "I shall be the most envied man in the hotel," he added. It was so long since I hed heard the }ittle flatteries of polite society that my spirits leaped at the sound. "I will be happy in spite of any- thing that life may hold," I whisper- ed to myself---an unconsciously car- ressing hand straying among the fragrant white violets at my belt.

Whenever we sing "The sands of time are sinking," with its refrain, "In Immanuel's Land," we should recall that it is only an echo from Rutherford's sea-girt prison, Most of us are shut in by some sort of imprisonment or other; some of us settle down o the deadened life of convicts; whereas God means ug to be free, in spirit, if not in body. Only-a morbid soul can de- light in bars. Resignation is not the first of the Christian virtues; it be- loggs far down on the scale of faith, below courage and initiative and dili- gence. You may be sure that Peter was the sort who did not stop to argue with the angel about the spi tual benefits of imprisonment; he was feady to go free at the first touch of the angel's hand. The obedience and co-operation of Peter with the angel was fairly military, A Man as an + At the time of the famous so- called "conspiracy cade," when one hundred and twenty-five Korean Christians were in prison, a Korean inissionary was at dinner in the home of an Auuerican newspaper man. She recounted the whole story vividly, and then said, with some degree of concern, "And, do you know, those simple-minded believers really expect that God will send an angel to open their prison doors, just as he did for Peter?" x That evening, upon retiring, the newspaper man said to his wife, "I'd like to be that angel" Thereupon be began an elaborate and far-reach- ing propaganda which really freed the rist ; although only a few persons know the inside story of Low world opinion was brought so over- whelmingly to bear upon the Japan- ese Government that it surrendered its plans respecting the Korean Christians, That incident illustrates the prin ciple made clear in the lesson story, that God never sends a celestial an- gel to do what a human servant can} nad as well accomplish.

There is a direct | connection between these supplicat- | ing .saints .and the freed apostle. | Prayer reaches farther than. even faith can. imagine. ~~ Mightier than spiritualistic mediums in command- ing supernatural Yesources is the simple prayer of faith. The person who is tempted ta go to a medium better go to, his knees. All barriers, of tine and sense, are crossed by the prayer of faith. Julia A. Baker has put the thought into verse: "Thou goest*thy way, and I go mine, Apart, yet hot afar; Only a thin veil hangs between The pathways where we are, 'God keep watch 'tween thee and me,' This is my prayer; He looketh thy way, He mine, - And keeps us near."

The assembled ristians could not at first believe that their pray- ers were answered, They were like that man who said his faith was so gre that it could remove the neighboring mountain. He shat his eyes and prayed for its removal, and opening them, said, "There it is -- just as I knew all the time it would! be" How amazed most of us would | be if our prayers were as actually and promptly answered as those of the Christians in the home of John Mark's mother in old Jerusalem!
