The surly reluctance he had exhibited upon his last appearâ€" ance was absent. And when they wheeled and came back to the starting barrier there was the big chestnut in the next to outside position placidly waiting for the word. ‘"Well, I‘m hanged!" Owen said unâ€" der his breath. ‘"There‘s something doingâ€"what is it, Barwick?" And strangely enough Barwick‘s words were true. The long line of horses had filed out, a beautiful streamer, a ribbon, with the little men decked out in blue, and gold, and green, and crimson, sitting atop the graceful, deerâ€"like creatures; and alâ€" most at the very end, No. 9, was Red Devil, as quiet, as wellâ€"behaved as an ‘‘Well, jus‘ take a look at the hawse himselfâ€"there he is at the postâ€"an‘ see if there aint something doin‘.

An‘ I don‘t need anybody to pass in judgment on my claimâ€"I‘ll leave it to you." As they sat down something of pique caused Owen to say: "Mr. Barwick, don‘t you forget that if Red Devil wins you‘ve got to make good; before you rake down you‘ve got to prove that you had something to do with his winning, see? Aint that Fright?" Then he hurried to the ring and put the money over, a hnudred at a crack; some at 12 to 1, some at 10, and some at 8 With the betting tickets in his pocket Owen joined Andrews and Barwick up in the Stand to watch the result of this psychological experâ€" iment.

Owen looked at Andrews, and Anâ€" drews looked at Owen. It did just seem the craziest thing any sane man had ever gone up against. ‘*Xou do as you like, Mr. Owen," Andrews said; "this hawse is fitter to run than ever he was in his life, an‘ if he don‘t dog it he‘ll win." "Never mind where I‘ve been," Barâ€" wick snapped. ‘‘We‘d best go an‘ get that bet down." "There‘s the hawseâ€"‘" Andrews jerked his hand toward Red Devilâ€" "d‘you want to look at him, or anyâ€" thing ?" "No, siree, I don‘t; we just got to put the money downâ€"that‘s all." (Omitted last week) The three men‘s attention was disâ€" jointed from this calamity by the appearance of the Man from Olds, who arrived somewhat precipitately. ‘"Where you been?"

First of all because they can get new subscribers anyâ€" where for any of our papers for a period of from 3 mos, to 3 years, or renewals for a like period. Second, because the contestant in a scattered community in a strictly rural section will have less competition then the ones in the towns, because of fewer entries in the immediate neighborâ€" hood. Third, because every district is sure of a prize. No one district can carry off more than one Grand Prize. That is to say, suppose a young lady in the Port Credit District secures the greatest number of votes in the camâ€" paign and thereby wins the Ford car, that fact would eliminate her district from the other Grand Prizes. Then again for example, say a contestant in Mimico is the highest in the remainâ€" ing Districts, he or she would â€" be awarded the Willis Piano and so on right down the list. Read carefully the article on the full page announceâ€" ment ‘"How the prizes will be awardâ€" ed." â€" While this competition â€" covers the whole territory it is also a conâ€" test in each district because no matâ€" ter how many votes the different conâ€" testants get in the same district, every district is going to get a Grand Prize and the person with the largest numâ€" ber of votes in any district is a sure Grand Prize winner.

"I ain‘t askin‘ nothin‘ but a fair deal," Barwick retorted. ‘"Red Devil won that race, an‘ all your boodle, jus‘ | cause I‘d got his psychology down fine, an‘ I‘m goin‘ to prove it right now. In ‘the first place I discovered he‘d got to _have a lightnin‘ fas track." c The Man from Olds tipped his head closer(to Owen, and, lowering his voice, answered: "I‘m the man that took the nut off the axle of that watâ€" erâ€"cart." that?" to where the waterâ€"cart had damped the track. Then I see him win easy over at Fort Erie this summer, an‘ it was the day the waterworks played out an‘ they couldn‘t use the waterâ€" cart. The track was like a plank road. I got his psychology right there. When he saw the track wet he threw back to the quicksand muskegs, an‘ got feared. That‘s how I knew he wouldn‘t win the other day, an‘ that‘s how I knew he‘d win toâ€"day when the track wasn‘t sprinkled. That‘s what made him winâ€"See?" ‘"Hold on, Barwick," Owen objected; ‘"that was an accident. You said you‘d make the horse winâ€"that was your bargain. Where d‘you come in on "Sure you did.

"I guess not," Barwick answered, ignoring this bit of facetiousness, "It‘s up to me to make good, seein‘ as the hawse has made good." Owen held out his hand to Barwick, saying: "Some psychology, pard.

The b‘o'y Hadn't moved on him as he rushed past the Judge‘s Stgnd, winning by six lengths» a sneer; but there was no strain in that tawny face; it was the face of a seer who knew. It had ceased to be a race, for the che§tnut was being eased up, he was They were opposite the betting ring now, and there was no lowering of the chestnut head, no boring outâ€"just that straight onward rush. And he was away out in front, all by himâ€" self. Andrews stole a glance at Barwick. There was a grim twist on the latâ€" ter‘s lips that might be a smile or Three length to the good he swung into the stretch, and the green jacket, lying so flat over his wither, with nevâ€" er the flicker of an arm, showed that the boy had not moved on him. Would he keep it up, Andrews was wonderâ€" ing; he was going so easy. Would he curl up like a hound just opposite the betting ringâ€"would he dog it? For the big chestnut seemed to lope around the lower turn with the easy grace of a child skipping a rope. It wasn‘t struggle, it wasn‘t strain of fierce endeavor, it was the poetry of motion, of power in excess; it was beautiful. And always the space between the chestnut and the nearest horse was growing wider. "He won‘t toâ€"day, Mr. Owen; not by a jugful he won‘t toâ€"day. See him nowâ€"just seâ€"eâ€"e him!" answered, "and then curled fourth." up and ran Love should go out to all, not mereâ€" ly to friedd and neighbour, but to the enemy as well. The man who does everything in his power to undermine us, to blast our reputation, to curtail our influence, should be the object of our kindest consideration. When othâ€" ers curse us, we should bless them; when others hate us, we should do them good; when others persecute us and despitefully use us, we should pray for them. The more people there are to persecute us, the more there are for whom we will have the privâ€" ilege of praying. In this way perseâ€" cutions becomes a means of unalloyed blessing, a stepping stone on which we step higher into the life of Jesus Christ. â€" Happy is he, indeed, who takes these words literally. We will have no more anxiety from persecuâ€" tions, and lies and slanders. By lovâ€" ing our enemies, we shall ourselves be sons of God, for the son is like his father, and this is the way the heavenâ€" ly Father acts: He returns blessing for cursing, kindness _ for hate; He maketh His sun, with all its healing, fruitâ€"giving power, rise on the evil and the good. That is a very suggestive phrase, "HIS sun,." When you look at the glorious sun again just say, ‘"That is HIS sun, and He gives it to me." To love them that love us is no indivation of grace; even the pubâ€" licans do the same. The last verse is very wonderful, holding up the perâ€" fection of God as our standard. It is really a promise more than a comâ€" mand, ‘"Ye theregore shall be perfect, even as your heavenly Father is perâ€" fect" (R‘ v.). "The immediate refâ€" erence is to perfection in love, loving enemies as well as friends, bad as well as good (cf. Lu. 6:â€"35,â€"36)" But it is clearly implied that in all things God‘s character is our standard (Eph. £:â€"13% II, The Law of the Kingdom Reâ€" garding the Treatment of Enemies, 43â€"48. __ | great question that man is ever askâ€" is ing, How to be happy. Jesus points out eight classes whom God pronouncâ€" ie es happy. They are not those whom ‘" | the world esteems happy. Indeed they are in part those whom the world esâ€" E | teems most unfortunate. But time has & | justified, and eternity will more abunâ€" 3 dantly justify the declarations of it Christ. (1) The first class are "the d poor in spirit," i. e., the lowly in heart, ~| those who recognize their need and © | are contrite and humble in spirit * ! (comp. Ps. 34: 18; 51: 17; Prov. 29: 23; Isa. 57: 15; 66: 2; Phil. 3: 3). € | Theirs is the kingdom of heaven. The ‘e goods of this present evil age belongs * | to the selfâ€"assertive and selfâ€"esteemâ€" C ing; the good of the coming age beâ€" T longs to the self-renouncing and selfâ€" abhoring. The door of the kingdom is _" only open to those who realize their ~ | utter moral poverty and humble themâ€" "| selves in the dust (Jas. 4: 9, 10; 1 Pet. [ 5°06; th. 18s: 14; 1: 43). The spirit *l.of the twentieth century is utterly opposed to the‘ very poverty in spirit ° | here described. (2) The second beatiâ€" § tude sounds equally strange. The € world‘s estimation is "blessed are ° | those who are not called to mourn ; **! those who have no bereavements and ‘ | no sorrows." "Not so," says Jesus, ; | "‘deep sorrow is one of the greatest ‘ | blessings of the life that now is." . Ail ‘ | who have learned to know the deeper ‘ | joys that are in Christ, have been led into them through great heartâ€"aches. ‘ | The reason why those mourn are hapâ€" ‘ | py is, because they shall be comfortâ€" ‘| ed." It is "the God of all comfort‘" Himself who comforts them (2 Cor. 1: ; 118 4). (3) . The: third class who are | happy are the ‘"méeek," i. e., the ‘| humble, , gentle and mild as distinâ€" guished from the selfâ€"assertive and | contentious and harsh (1 Cor. 4: 21; f 6: 1; Eph. 4: 2; 2 Tim. 2: 2: Tit. 3: i 2). The world‘s thought is that there is no chance for the meek man in a selfish, hustling age like this; and | that his gentle voice can never be heard amid . the universal clamor. JESUS says, "they shall inherit the earth" (comp. Ps. 37: 11; Isa_57: 13). (4) ‘"Blessed are they that do hunger, and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled." There are few sweeter promises in the Bible than this. How dissatisfied God has made some of us with our present attainâ€" ments in holiness! How we ery to God for something more, something higher, deeper, more perfect! _ How we long to be perfectly like Him, beâ€" tween whom and ourselves we see so | . wide a difference! Jesus says, "you § shall be FILLED." (5) "The merciâ€" ful." . Mercy is that genuine loving kindness toward the needy that leads to helpful action in their behalf. The man who helps others in their distress will be helped by God in his own disâ€" tress (Lu. 3: 68; Ps/ 41: 1).. On the other hand, he who has a deaf ear to the cry of the needy will find that God has a deaf ear when he cries to Him (Prov. 21: 13; Mat. 18: 23â€"25). (6) "The pure in heart." Theirs is the supreme blessedness, ‘"they shall see God." The joy of beholding the greatâ€" est masterpiece of art, the most wonâ€" drous landscape, the face of most matchless beauty, is nothing to the joy of gazing into the face of God. A sinful heart makes a blind eye. The pure in heart already see God (Jno. 14:19, 21. 23), but. ‘"in a glass darkâ€" ly," but in the coming day ‘"face to face" (1 Cor. 13: 12). (7) "Peace makers," their blessedness is because "they shall be called sons of God" (R. V.). The God of the Bible is "the God of peace" (Rom. 15: 33; 16; 20; Phil. (4: 09; Heb. 13: 20). Surely then the peace makers are justly called His sons. (8) Upon those who are perâ€" secuted for righteousness‘ sake, twoâ€" fold happiness is pronounced. While the world looks with pity or contempt on the man who is persecuted for righteousness‘ sake, and while the weak Christian shrinks from such | _ treatment, Jesus pronounces them twice happy. This is the path "the prophets, and the apostles, and Jesus Himself, trod to glory. No man will ever enter the kingdom in any other way (Ac. 14: 22). Men _ consider themselves most fortunate when "reâ€" ; proached‘"‘ and "persecuted" and "all manner of evilâ€"said against‘" them for Christ‘s sake, but Jesus says that is the time to ‘"rejoice and be exceeding glad." These things are the cost of "great reward in heaven" (Rom. 8: 1. 181.3 Cor. 4: 17). & 1â€"10 WHAT THE KING REQUIRES Golden Text.â€"‘"Ye therefore shall be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.‘"‘ Mat. 5: 48.
