We also think of the man in John ix, who was born blind, and remember the Saviour’s reason why. May we see in all difficulties an opportunity for God to work and be willing to be the material. When the people saw the miracle wrought through Paul and Barnabas they were ready to worship them and could scarcely be restrained, even after Paul assured them that they were only men of like passions with themselves and that the healing of this man was by the power of the living God, who was thus seeking to draw them to Himself and away from all the lying vanities of their idolatry. Note how the Thes- salonians. turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God and to wait for His Son from heaven (I Thess. i. 9. 10). godly in our daily life We would have more fellowship with our Lord in this matter, according to F1221. i. :33. At Iconium they spake so boldly in the Lord, and the Lord was so manifestly With them, working signs and wonders by their hands, that a great multitude. both of J ews and Greeks. believed, and they abode long time there preaching the Lord Jesus (verses 1-6). Persecution sent them on to Lystra, and there they preached the gospel. In Paul’s estimation there was nothing else worth doing, for this be counted all else as dross and determined to know nothing but Jesus Christ cruci- fied, risen, ascended and returning. :SUNDfiY Sfifififli. __-_. This chapter completes the story of Paul’s first evangelistic missionary tour to Jews and gentiles. and is spoken of in verse 26 as “the worl; which they fulfilled” Being driven from Antioch, they came to Iconium: persecuted there they fled to Lystra; their persecn- ’ tors followed them. and at LyStra Paul a was stoned to death. but the Lord re- 2 vived him, and then they went on to] Derbe, everywhere preaching the gos- ‘ pel, telling the glad tidings and sufi'er~ i ing for it. but winning souls and thus ' adding to the Lord the members of His I body. From Derbe they returned ’ through all the places where they had } been, and from Attalia sailed to Am: i i i l i l 3 y E l l l tioch, in Syria. from whence they had set forth. and there rehearsed to the brethren all that God had done with them, opening the door of faith to the gentiles. After preaching the gospel in every place, when they returned they con- firmed the souls of the disciples. en- couraging them tq continue in the faith, ordaining elders. praying with them! and commendhig them to the Lord on ' whom they believed. One thing they insisted on was that the believers must not count suffering a strange thing. for | only by the way of tribulation can we l I enter the kingdom (verses 21-23). When we receive the Lord Jesus we become children of God and heirs of the king- dom, but then the conflict with the world, the flesh. and the devil begins and will continue while we stay on earth. Even our Lord said. “In the world ye shall have tribulation.” But He also said, “Let not your heart be troubled,” “See that ye be not trou- bled” (John xvi, 33; xiv, 1, 27; Matt. xxiv, 6).

Mr. R. A Bringle, K.C., and Judge D. B. Mc'l‘avish, the two commission- ers appointed to inquire into the fire which destroyed the Parliament Build- ings, reported “that there are many circumstances connected with the fire to lead to a strong suspicion of in- cendiarism, especially in view of the fact that the evidence is clear that no one was smoking in the reading room for some time previous to the outbreak of the fire, and also to the fact that the fire could not have occurred from defective electric wires. Your commis- sioners feel very strongly that it might be possible at a later date to obtain evidence which they cannot reach at present time, which might establish beyond question whether this fire was incendiary or accidental, and would humbly suggest that this report be treated as an interim report, and that the commission be left open.” Stevens for $10,000.

Yoakum, stockholder in the American Ammunition Company. who with Cadwell and Busick negotiated the 2,500,000 fuse order from the shell committee, admitted that, in addition to the agreement between himself, Bussicl: and Cadwell for the distribu- tic: of the million dollars, there was a “gentleman’s agreement” between himself and Col. Allison for equal shares in Yoakum’s portion of the million dollars’ commission. As Yoak- 11:21 was to get $475,000 of the amount, Col. Allison's share was nearly a quarter of a million, or exactly $237- 250, less expenses. Some of the amount already has been paid. t appeared that allowing for deduc- tions Allison's share was reduced to $197,000. , Evidence given at Friday’s sitting of the Royal Commission was of a somewhat sensational character.
