QUITTERS AND CONTINUERS The International Sunday School Lesson for Oct. 2nd Is: "Paul's xd Missionary Journey; Paul in orinth."'--Acts 18:1-23. By Wiiliam T. Ellis. Ih the ~heyday of the Laymen's Missiona tily rem this upri may eit ced, "My concern about ng of laymen is that they down too soon." His fear has been justified in large part. Most, "rising young men" likewise too qui cease rising. A major- ity of uising careers" end in promise. w movements and enter- prises appear from time to time-and then collapse or become a mere scrap of machinery whereby a few men griha out a livelihood. Where are the writers of whom twenty years ago we expected so much? And we look in valn for the fulfilled pro- phecies concerning scores of brilliant young men and women from whom the world was one day to hear. The theme is a depressing one, with illu- strations on every hand. Apparently, few persons are able to utilize their highest powers to their greatest end. They can spurt, but they cannot stick, To continue greatly to the farthest goal is the last and greatest test of character. We are studying in this lesson a man who had the grace of continuance; one who 'kept everlastingly at It." Somehow the subject is most easily illustrated by contrasts, As we look upon graduating classes to their lofty ambitions and resound- ing words we scarcely like to think that most of them will quickly be- come commonplace money-grabbers, their dreams forgotten and discard- ed. Recently it was announced that a conspicuous figure in the religious world of the United States, a man often acclaimed as a "prophet," has '"'gone into business." The cynical French epitaph recurs to mind: -- "Born a man: died a grocer." Some Modern Instances, To start something good and big is easy; to keep at it to a success- ful end is a proof of real quality. Almost any enthusiast can make one missionary journey; it takes an apostle Paul to make three and four. We al] know the type of person who goes through life talking about his one foreign trip, his one serious ill- ness, his one adventure, his one | ABRAMSON'SSATURDAY WEEKEND SALE ~ Bargains not on this or that, but every Saleable at give-away prices.

Antioch or Jerusalem, | retailing old stories and disparaging | men with fresher tales. It seems a law of life that no man may inter- rupt the exercise of'his higher | powers without deterioration, I know | a man who was once a useful mis- | sidnary in India. He returned home | ami took to platform work--and the | platform is more dangerous to a man's mind and soul than the jun- gles of Africa--where his mission- ary fervor outran al] bounds, but greatly increased his own income. His oratory eventually became too hectic and unreal for even the long- suffering church folk, 'and he got an educational job. He held that. only a short time; and the last the edu- cational world heard of him he was impaled upon a phrase by a profes- sor of psychology as "a hyper- moron'! Yet had that man stuck to the actual performance of his missionary work, he might have been a real factor in the coming of the kingdom of India, Once there was a young mission- ary at work in a remote Moslem fleld, doing remarkable and con- structive service. It is the foolish way of Christians to pull up every man 'who is conspicuously produe- ing fruit as a preacher or a mis- sionary and make him a secretary or an itinerant speaker. So this real leader of Christian forces in the Moslem world was set to talking in the homeland; and his best friends have been most grieved to watch the gradual atrophy of his real powers of judgment and scholarship and | Christian statesmanship. He should | have been permitted to continue to grow in the stern climate of hard service, Even the Apostle Paul did not dare trust himself to be free of his harness betimes. 3 A Job's Real Reward. What a man does by his work is matched by what his work does for the man. Who are the sound think- rs, the constructive citizens, the real statesmen? Are they the loung- ers in the clubs, the loafers on the corners, the social idlers and critics? Far from it: they are the busy, bur- dened workers of the world. Some- how our tasks have a habit of stabil- izing and clarifying our minds. Idlers rust and become 'queer'; workers "bring forth fruit in old age." We make our work and our work makes us. Rare is the man who comes to his highest powers outside of some real task. As we behold the ardent spirit of { Paul, faring forth to new adventures, {we are reminded that it was these | very experiences that developed his | peerless powers. In the travail of | journeys and labors and sufferings, ! his mind matured the great convic- | tions which are today the Scriptures lof civilization. Without the Pauline | missionary journeys, thers would have been no Pauline letters. Had the mighty missionary not been thrust again and again into the furn« ' ace of affliction, his understanding ot God's great truths would not have been refined and clarified for the en- richment of the centuries, Paul | "found himself," his best possible self, in his hardest service. We do | wrong to our noblest capabilities | when we fall to give them for de- velopment the essential school of toil and self-denial. Washing the Dishes Again! | Every Housewife has had her mo- ! ments of rebellion against the end- lessly-recurring task of washing dishes. Nobody would mind doing {it once; but three times a day, through all the years, stretches this uninspiring task. So it is with cook- ing and sweeping and dusting and 'sewing. The dead monotony of it has broken the spirit of weak wo- men, who have not risen to an un- derstanding of the truth that scarcely anything in life. is ever done for all, to stay done forever thereafter. All of us are busy with a repetition of the humdrum. Have you heard of the Frenchman who committed sui- cide because he grew tired of tying his shoe-laces? The small boy wearies of washing his face, even as father complains of having to shave daily. : | What bas all that got to do with Paul's | third missionary journey? | Bverything; it is the same principle at work, Paul evangelized the cities on his first journey; and then ald it all over again on his second ana third journeys. He not only enter- ed new flelds but he also went over {the old. Repetition is the way of {learning and of life. Paul taught | his converts the Way; then, patient- {ly and lovingly, by repeated visit and letter, he made clear how they |Xbould walk therein. This is tne | pri significance of that third ! great journey--in eome ways the | greatest, of all--about which we {shall be studying for some weeks to come. We are not to grow weary jie well-doing.

In distress of mind and body, the great missionary labored in Corinth for a year and a half. So difficult was his task there that he may even have had to face the possibility of the existence of a people for whom Christianity had no message. There seem such even to-day. A young man told me yesterday, concerning an admirable family that he knew, "Religion doesn't seem to mean any- thing to them at all. All churches, in their opinion, are alike, except as one may be more aesthetically at- tractive than another, But the Bi- ble and Christ and spiritua)] realities apparently have no significance for them." Yet as Paul found in Cor- inth, after being reassured by a vis- ion, there were those with ears for the Word; so in every modern com- munity and' family there are bound to come times when people answer to the call of Christ. Reports indi- cate such a spiritual turning in our own day. If the ways of heathen Corinth have seemed to have a vogue in the modern world, there is coming a new day and a new mood, when the Pauline message is to be heeded, in all its transforming power; THE LATE MRS. GARRISON, An Aged Resident of Moscow Who Passed Away Recently. Napanee, Sept. 27.--The late Mrs. Mary Asselstine, widow of the late George Garrison, and whose parents were Jacob, Asselstine and Hannah Benn, was the eldest of eleven chil- dren, four of whom are living: George Asselstin®, Moscow, born 1835; John Asselstine, Collin's Bay, born 1838; Huldah Vanluven, King- ston, born 1830, and Melissa Miller, Kentwood, Louisanna, the youngest, born 1846. Mrs, Garrison was born November 26th, 1828, and was mar- ried to the late George Garrison February 22nd, 1848.. Both were descendants of the United Empire Loyalists, and two of the first to clear | the forest and settle on their farm at Varty Lake near Moscow, living in a small log house for eleven years. Afterwards they built, all' by hand- work, one of the best farm houses in that district, where they toiled and prosperously lived till the death of her husband on November 5th, 1909 | Mrs, Garrison remained there one year after his death, when she went to live with her eldest daughter, Mrs. A. C, Warner, in Colebrook, re maining there until the breaking up of that home two years ago, when she went to live with her other daughter, Mrs. F. S. Wartman, Na- panee, Mre.

She was a Methodist in religion, to which church of late years she was a gen- érous contributor, also contributing largely to the Red Cross and other worthy societies, and devoted all her time during the war to knitting socks for the boys at the front. Even the day before she was stricken down with the summer grippe, She Juli a foot of a sock, and was apparently 2s well as usual, She was always of a cheerful disposition and had won- derful vitality, never even using glas- ses to read with. She was always the last one to bed and the first one up in the morning and never laid down in daytime. She never missed a meal, and retained her faculties to the last, praising her children and those in attendance at her bedside. She was confined to her bed ten days, when she passed away at the vener- able age of ninety-two years, nine months and seven days. The funeral was held at the home of her daughter, Mrs. F. 8.
