His breath came in apoplectic gasps and. his face was livid with rage. “She’s out of it J3 fer as I’m concerned. I did every~ thing in the world fer her, an’ it wasn’t no use.” He turned to his daughter as he hurled out his anger and disappointment between his gasps for breath. “I was ready to stan’ by you to the end, and’ what do I git fer all my schemin’ an’ planning’ fer you? Nothin’ but glum looks an’ harsh words. If yer goin’ away, go. I dis- oWn you. I cast you ofl.” The .girl did not quail beneath his bitter words. They only inflamed her to announce the decision she had al- ready made. Her lip curled with scorn. her eyes snapped, as she looked at her father. “You disown me! You cast me off!" All the contempt she could muster she threw into her voice. “What right have you, who would barter me away as you would a horse or dog? No, it’s I disown you!” THE! DAUGHTER OF DAVID KERR Wright walked over to her and sought to take her hand gently in his, but she drew away. She would stand alone. Like a blind old bear David Kerr semed to grope his way to the door. There he turned to gaze once more upon the wreck of his latest schemes. His rage was still hot upon “I found you in thisâ€"this adventur~ er’s room. I leave you here. Look to yerself. you are no child 0’ mine.” The door banged behind him and Gloria Kerr knew that they had met for the last time. The girl, feeling so miserably alone in the world, turned to find bent upon her the tender gaze of the man whom she had once sworn to follow to the end of the world. For them love was dead, she knew, and now life would be for her only a suc- cession of weary days. “No, I’ll not stopâ€"there‘s mcre to say. Here, within this hour, Mr. Wright asked me again to be his MIL. “I thought all but my body died that day we spoke of love to find it but a dream,” she acknowledged sadly, “yet there was one cup still more bitter 1 had to drainâ€"and this was that cup’s dregs.” “Oh, Gloria, believe me, out of un- happiness happiness comes.

The man who would sell his own daughter is capable of anything!” “Please, Gloria, stop,” Wright en- treated. “I’m not accustomed to have any one else fight my battles for me. I can take care of myself.” ‘fHow selfish you are, Joe. All your fine sermons are going for naught. You’ve preached of your duty, and yet at the chance to show your devotion to that duty you’re wanting to give up the fight. I'm not worth it, Joe, really I’m not. Think of Belmont. A gen- eral doesn’t desert his soldiers after a victory, just because he knows the, enemy has sent for reinforcements. That would be cowardly, and it isn’t like you, Joe. The brave general doesn’t give ground, he advances. Don’t follow me; I would hate you. .I know how Belmont needs you.” She looked at him in wonder, then slowly shook her head. “No, you can’t leave Belmont, Joe. You’re not a coward. I’m going, but your place is here.” "But I need you, Gloria. And what is more, you need me and I can’t let you go alone. There is a world else where, even other Belmonts where we can live and labor and love. I didn’t know till your father referred to it that you were at Noonan’s that day. Can’t you see how I need you for my guardian angel? How did you happen to be there?” The girl looked at him with the faintest of smiles battling with her settled melancholy. He was border- ing on melodrama. and she was re- garding him with the same gentleness a loving mother exhibits toward an un- reasoning little child. Briefly she detailed the visit, min- imizing her part in saving him. None the less he was able to see that it was to her he owed perhaps life itself. He listened in silence, letting her tell her story in her own way. “Gloria, I’ve .come to a decision.” She 'looked at him aumthn'lnal? «v... Continued from page 6. 'le I Garlic For Wasp Stings.

At last she looked up at him and smiled. “Yes, Joe. our place is here. and our happiness. Right in this room all my old pride died.

Memory Verses. 34-36â€"Golden Text, Matt. xxvi, 41â€"Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Lesson lll.â€"Fourth Quarter, For Oct. 18, 1914. Wholly forgetful of Himself and His approaching sutferings, in a way that We cannot understand, He comforted that little band with the incomparable words of John xiv. xv, xvi and pray- ed the prayer of John xvii, such a prayer as was never prayed on earth before or since. Then they sang a hymn and went out into the mount of 'Olives (verse ‘26)." He went forth over the brook Cedron. because His son Israel had turned against Him and would not have Him (Ex. iv, :22; Ps. lxxxi, 11). We cannot but think of His father David going forth over the same brook because his son rebelled against him (11 Sam, xv, 23), but as truly as David returned and reigned when the rebellion was over, so shall the Son of David return and reign when Israel’s rebellion is over. As to His own experience in the garden we may be quite certain that He was not shrinking from death on the cross, nor was He asking to be de- livered from that. We know that the devil tried to kill Him as a babe in Bethlehem and by His own townsmen at Nazareth and possibly in the storm on the lake, but he could not, for the time' had not come. My own convic- tion concerning His agony and bloody sweat in Gethsemane is that it was an- other attempt of the devil to kill Him before the time and thus prevent His great sacrifice for sin on Calvary. The key to it is found in Heb. v, 7, “He oflered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto Him that was able to save Him from death and was heard.” It is the rec- ord of His third weeping. He prayed to be saved from death. and He was heard and therefore saved from death. the death in the garden which seem- ed imminent An angel came to Him and strengthened Him that He might gu «m to the cross and finish the great atonement fur sin which He came to make. Yet He was willing to leave His work unfinished and die in tin me «~an it His Father should so will it. Having entered a garden in Geth- semane (John xviii, 1), He said to His disciples, “Sit ye here while I shall pray,” and. leaving eight of them, He took Peter and .:lunes and John and went a little farther and began to be sorrowful and ve13 heavy (verse 33; Matt. xxvi, 37). Putting the three rec- ords together as well as we can, it seems to have been like this: He was withdrawn from the three favored dis- ciples about a stone’s cast, saying to them, “My soul is exceeding sorrow- ful unto death. Tarry ye here and watch with me." Then He went for- ward a little and kneeled down and tell on His face on the ground and prayed, saying, “0 my Father, if it be possible let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not my will but Thine be done.” And there appeared an angel unto Him from heaven, strengthening Him. And, being in an agony, He prayed more earnestly, and His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. (Matt. xxvi, 37-39; Mark xiv, 33-36; Luke xxii. 41-44.) What shall we say of the favored three who were also with Him at the raising of the ruler’s daughter and on the mount of transfiguration and two of them honored to bring to Him the ass' colt and to prepare the Passover? What about their sleeping at His transflguration (Luke ix, 32), as well as in the garden, and the fact that neither glory nor suffering can keep such mortals as we are awake? What about the boasting of Peter and then his not being able to watch one hour? Oh. the loneliness of it all on His side! “No man knoweth the Son save the Father.” How can He continue to love such as we are and ever hope to make anything out of us? May His patience with us make us more pa- tient with each other. It is clear that He prayed three times, that He found them three times sleeping, that He sweat, as it were, drops of blood, that an angel strength- ened Him, that after His agony He was able to rise up and go to meet His enemies. He went away and prayed the third time, saying the same words. Then He came the third time to the three and said, “Sleep on now, and take your rest, it ls enough, the hour is come: behold, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.” Then He returned to the eight and found them also sleeping for sorrow, and said: “Why sleep ye? Rise and pray lest ye enter into temptation.” This at- tempt at a conservative story of that awful night in the garden may not be quite correct in every detail, but it is helpful even to try to do it. Do it for yourself, and you will be blessed in doing it. Then He came to the three and found them asleep and saith unto Peter: “Si- mon, sleepest thou? Couldest thou not watch with me one hour? Watch ye and pray lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” He went away the sec- ond time and prayed the same words, and returned and found them asleep again, and they did not know what to answer Him. .uâ€"â€".

When Joseph Henry Lumpkin was chief justice of Georgia a case was brought up from Columbus in which a wealthy citizen asked for an injunc- tion to prevent the construction of a planing mill across the street very near his palatial residence. His grounds for templaint consisted chiefly in the propo- sition that the noise of the mill would wake him too eariy in the morning. “Let the mill be built." said the chief justice in rendering his decision. “Let its Wheels be put in motion.

Thus it there were a man in the moon and if he were like the men on the earth he would be able to leap over a three storied house with as much ease as an ordinary jumper springs over a three toot fence. in consequence of the forces of attraction being much less at the moon’s surface than at the earth’s. An elephant there would be as light footed as the deer here. A boy throwing stones might easily land them in an adjoining county. On the other hand. the reverse of all this would happen in Jupiter and Saturn. They being so much greater than the earth. their attraction would so im- pede locomotion that a man would scarcely be able to crawl and large animals would be crushed by their own weight.

Insurance came from medieval Italy. It is believed to date from the six- teenth century, and at that time it was known in Florence. The Romans did not know insurance. The nearest they came to it was the practice of a com- pany supplying the army to require a guarantee from the state against the loss of ships. But this was soon aban- doned. because damages had been col- lected for sunken ships too worthless to float.
