"But that family is- définitely far below our social level," said Mrs. Jones disdainfully as she sipped the last of her tea. "Yes", replied Mrys. Smith, "but if we are going to be Christian around here, that shouldn't matter." Just then the group were called to order, I'he president read to'dav's lesson. When the devotion- al exercises were over "Mrs. Jones turned to Mrs Smith and said, "You are right. We actually - think more of Jesus because lle chose onc of those despised Publicans to he one of His twelve disciples. And I think it was perfectly wonderful of Him to go to Matthew's home and meet all his old friends. If our ministry in this community is going to be worthwhile, then we must lift up the down-trodden." Jesus changed Matthew and used Him for kingdom. Later Matthew -wrote the gospel hearing his name - "Business is business," said the store owner as he removed a dozen oranges fromthe crate being taken to the hospital. "One has to put in a low bid to get the business'. | there, and it has to be made up' some way." The employee didn't like the apparént dishonesty. In- wardly he resolved,."I'll get a job "in a siore=where the owner is a real Christian, Some day I'll have my © own store and I'll prove as many others have, that you can be a Christian business man." Jesus didn't patch up the legalism of the Jews. lle gave men power to live a new life in accordance with the law of love and the golden rule. He still gives Himself to men. This is the only religion that teaches that the leader or one worshipped dwells within the individual's heart, and of whom he can testify.

Can you do anything to make it last longer? Yes, just remember these few pointers: 5 Lift the skirt of the coat when. you sit .down so your movements ' do not strain 'the seams, A fur coat is a flaitering luxury, whether it is muskrat or mink, and it's not intended to be pushed into' or-pulled out of a car many times each day. Shake out.-furs "that have been 'exposed to rain or snow. Hang them up to dry--away from radia- tors or heat. : Ask your furrier to replace: skins when cuffs, pockets, and front edges first show signs of wear. If that is impossible or too expensive, he can trim. the cuffs or hemline to get the fur needed for the neces- sary repairs. Carry your handbag by the han- dle or ovér the wrist. Constant fric- tion from under-the-arm or over- the-shoulder bags breaks off the hairs or gives fur a ruffled 'and un- tidy look. : " Wear 'jewelry "with furs but not on them. Pins pierce aud may rip the pel, A Spray perfume from an atomizer if you must wear it on your furs, but remember that fur takes on its own interpretation of a scent. Store your coat in cold storage _ as early as possible to preserve the fur, protect 1t from moths, and to keep the skins soft and pliable. Beware of warm 'closets--those built next to chimneys are slow drying-rooms for your furs. Your fur coat may look -well on the out- side but once the skins begin to stiffen, harden; or crack, the fur cannot be restored to its original lustre, : Hang your fur scarf on a hanger specially made for the purpose. Beét-- ter still, keep it folded in a drawer. Hang fur coats on padded hangers curved on the natural shoulder tine, -- TEE be pa : Furs do not yearn for constant - petting. To preserve: them, keep hands off 'and let a reliable furrier do the cleaning and treating your furs demand. Real Best Sellers » The boom in Mickey Spillane thrillers has broken all records.
