But it has got something to do with Miss Nor ris. And Miss Norris--" He broke off suddenly. "What about her? : Antony knocked out his pipe and got up slowly, "Well then, let's find the way from the house by which Miss Norris came." Bill jumped up eagerly. "By Jove! Do you mean there's a secret passage?" "A secluded passage, There must be." "I say, what fun! anyway. 1 love secret INCH BY INCH HIS HEAD WENT ROUND THE CORNER. passages. Good lord, and this afternoon I was playing golf just lke an ordinary merchant! What a life? Secret passages!" They made their way down into the ditch. If an opening was to be found which led to the house, it would probably be on the house side of the green, and on the outside of the ditch. The most obvious place at which to begin the search was the shed where the bowls were kept. There were two boxes of croquet things, one of them with the lid open. Antony tapped the wall at the back of the shed. "This is where the passage ought to begin." "It needn't begin here at all, need it? sald Bill, walking round with bent head, and tapping the other walls. He was just too tall to stand upright in the shed. "There's only one reason why ft should, and that 14 that ft would save us the trouble of looki where else for it." Antony began to feel in his pockets for his pipe and tobacco, and then suddenly stopped and stiffened to at- tention. For a moment he stood listening, with his head on coe side, holding up a finger to bid Bill listen, too. "What is it?" whispered Bill Antony waved him to silénce, and remained listening. Very quietly he weat down on his knees, and listened again. Then he put his ear to the flor, He got up and dusted himself quickly, walked across to Bill and whispered in his ear: ; "Footsteps. Somebody coming. When I bekin to talk, back me up." Bill nodded. Antony gave him an encouraging pat on the back, and stepped firmly across to the box of bowls, whistling loudly to himself, He took the bowls out, dropped one with & loud bang on the floor, said, "Oh, Lord!" and went on: "1 say, Bll 1 don't think I want E : i g ! § | f : i thy ih ; i Bt 5 § i gf i it i} i if ef f "Mind you, I think he's right, I think it's what any of us would do, I shan't give it away, of course, but "Mutdered him?

"Well," he began deliberately, "the whole point is that I know Mark. Now, Mark--" But Antony was off the seat and letting himeelf gently down into the ditch.

A lecture entitled "Christian Sci- ence: The Religion of Fulfillment" was given in the First church, King- ston, Monday evening, by Judge Samuel W. Greene, C.8., Louisville, Kentucky, member of the board of lectureship of the Mother Church, the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts. In introducing the lecturér, the first reader of the local Christian Science church, A. Victor Gilbert sald: "It is a pleasure to welcome you to one of the semi-annual lee- tures which this church provides so that all in the community who wish may learn the truth about Christian Science and how it heals sickness and sin." > Judge Greene sald that Chris- tian Science is indeed the new-old story of Life and Truth and Love.

In a far larger sense God being ai- vine: "principle," infinite, unfailing, is everywhere present, able te solve man's every problem provided man understands Him and the availabil- ity and application of His power, Was not this the thought of the psalmist when he sang: "If I ascend up into heaven, thou are there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right band shall hold me" (Psalms 139). There is no problem, no condition, that can come to us but God's power is ever available for its satisfactory solution. } Continuing this same thought of the multiplication table, ask a scheolboy how long he thinks, eight times eight have been sixty-four aud ten times ten one hundred. Doubt less his answer will be 'always." How long he thinks it will remainso? Answer--"always." And that Is cor- rect. As idea of "principle" does not change, so the multiplication table, as idea of principle of mathe- matics can never change. Principle does not change no does its idea or image. Likewise divine "principle" taught and proved and practised by Jesus of Nazareth nineteen Jhundred years ago. It embraces just the f"me thought, that through the un- uerstanding of the ever-present love and power of God, humanity is heal- ed not only of sin but of all the re- sults of sin--sickness, sorrow, un- bappiness, death. Perhaps the term "principle" as used for God in Christian Sclence has more tharf'any other word arous- ed an unusual inquiry in the aver- age orthodox thought, for men have thought of God generally as just a great superman, a power to be faar- ed rather than understood and lov- ed, sitting upon a throne waiting to judge men, and sending both good and evil. 'The world needs to get away from this view of God. It needs a larger concept of God, which is embraced in the use of the term "principle." In an eastern city after a lectures A woman came to me in seeming mental distress and said: "I want to know how your God can ;be every where at the same time." I was grateful then for the thought of God being *prineiple," as it afforded a ready answer to her inquiry, In con- sidering the principle of mathemat- les manifest in addition, sabstract- fon, multiplaction, it is easy to see that this princple can be everywhére at the same time.

Principlé Is mot moved by the breath of praise or flattery, or by entreaty or threat. In the thought of God being "principle" Christian Scientists ' have gotten away from the old belief that God interferes in the affairs of men bee cause they are asking Him to do this that, or some other thing, or that God causes the unnatural or supernatural happening ¢n the lives and affairs of men. It teaches that God's work is already perfect and complete. Indeed the Bible Bays that "God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good." The mission of scientific Christian- ity is to reveal the perfectness and completeness of God's work, to en- able us to overcome in our own lives and experiences - everything and every thought that is unMke God and His creation. | thought bring us back to that rule of conduct which Jesus gave, that we should do always the thing that is in accord: with the Father's will? - I ------ Old Resident g At Wellington Sarah Garratt, was in her ninet & member of the Two sons, Ralph Demorestville, daughter, Mrs. Seburn vive. em
