These facts about publicans enable us to it' *v.~t:.nd the incident -of Zac chaeus retter. He was “the chief among ; ie pu Beans, and he rich’’ —a grauvr or grafters, a master mind among the corrupt publicans. Small of stature, he ran ahead of the crowd as the Lord Jesus was passing through Jericho, and actually climb ed into a sycamore tree, to see Him,’’ Why was Zacchaeus so eager to see the Lord? We are not told. It may have been mere curios a wonder-worker; or have been touched by heard about the Lord have been a longing jn his life for something better, a hope that this wonderful man might help him. At any rate, the Lord “knew what was in man" (John 2:2'5), and when He came to the tree where Zaccha eus was He looked up and him. It must have been a word to the mercenary, but very wealthy publican, eus,” said Christ, “make haste, and come down; for toda/Sr I must abide at thy house.” Tjiere has been no more wonder ful word spoken since " '' ' gan! Yet the Lord same word to all who Him. No wonder Zacchaeus “made haste, and came down, and received Him joyfully.” This wonder-worker was doing for him what He always ’does: “exceeding abundantly about all that we ask or think.” (Eph. 3: 20.) Instantaneous conversion is a fact, whether the worldly wise believe it or not. Men are born again from above by faith in Christ in the twink ling of an eye. As Zacchaeous faced the Lord in his own home, he ex pressed a faith that would have sat- For’a Jew to be a re--isfied even practical Jesus, who in- , if it hath not and! works, is dead” (Jas. 2:17.) For were Zacchaeus .said to Christ: “Behold, was!Lord, the half of my goods I give to ; and if I have taken any thing from any man through false accusation, I restore him fourfold.” And this from a publican! It was no little restitution. It* must have meant that Zacchaeus was parting with, the equivalent of thousands of dollars, corruptly gained. It is evident that Zacchaeus was telling the Lord of a new resolve he had just made; not that it had been his practice ever to do this before, but that he was going to do so now —and the only .reason for it was a revolutionized life, in which Christ was supreme. The Lord’s answer ■settles the matter: “This day is sal vation come to this house.” Faith that is- real brings instant salvation. The onlookers, Jews that had no faith in Christ though He was their Messiah, murnrureo as they saw the Lord said, with that from Heaven dent closes with His answer: the Son of man is come to seel to save that which was lost."

Grace is God’s loving goodness to the un deserving. Except for such grace no sinnei* could ever be saved. In ten verses we are given a little biography of a little man; but this little biography is big with God’s blessings. It is the life-story of a publican. A publican was one of the lowest, most contemptible of men. “Racket eering” of the twentieth century may not have been known then, but the publican was the racketeer of that day; fie held men up for their property in a cruel and conscience less way. The Davis Bible Dictionary tells us: “In place of appointing revenue officers to raise fixed taxes from the community, the Roman and their deputy princes, like the Herods, were accustomed to put up to auc tion the privilege of farming the public revenue." Those wealthy men or organizations that bid in these rights .at auction would prom- ies to pay a given sum into the Ro man treasury; they in turn sold the right of “farming” parts of the rev enue to subcontractors or agents, who actually collected the These last were publicans, collected more than they over, ,and kept the difference them selves; therefore they gouged the individual taxpayers as heavily as they could. F publican was still worse, because hejsisted that, “faith, "raised taxes for a foreign ~ ............................ heathen Government. They not admitted into society; it considered disreputable for any ohe! the poor; to be their friend or associate." The Gospels .show us that the Lord unsparingly condemned the publican as-a class. (-Matthew 5:46-47; 18- 17). And because they were so low down in the scale of decency, so completely in the bondage of sin, the Lord Jesus Christ loved to res cue them. The publican, condemn ed by the Lord, was lifted by th.e Lord, to an exalted place in history and in personal experience. One of the twelve apostles, writer of one of the- four Gospels, was '.a publican; Levi or Matthew. (.Matt. 9:9; Luke 5:27.) The Lord was condemned for eating with publicans. (Matt. ,3.: 11.) He answered: “I am not come to call the righteous, but sin ners, to repentance." Another pub lican has an immortal place in his tory and literature in the record of his prayer: “God be merciful unto me, | sinner” (Luke 18:13), where by his confession and humility and faith made it possible, for God to justify him, save him, and exalt him above the proud Pharisee who was praying in hypocrisy at the same Post Office phones HouseOffice S4w Office closed every Wednesday , day) until further notice.

Early maturing sorts like Wealthy and Gravenstein can hardly be kept past Christmas, so that later McIntosh, Northern and Baldwin, should be selected for this purpose. All bruised fruit, cr scabby, should be discarded and only perfectly sound specimens utilized. If those are wrapped in oiled tissue or in ordinary tissue paper, keeping is greatly facilitated. Storing in bush el boxes is perferable to large con tainers and these should be kept in a cellar where the temperature does not go much above 40 F,, ajid does not fall below freezing. The av erage cement cellar, with a heating plant, is not satisfactory for apple storage. The best ,type of cellar is an ordinary dirt floor cellar with out any artificial heat.

Older Ontario has more to gain from the extended use of New On tario's vast iron wealth than the north country itself, declared James 1V> Curran, publisher of the Sault 3te. Marie, Ontario, Star, before the Toronto Rotary Club. *>Mr. Curran predicted a big, prosperous future "or the province in the development Of the iron ore resources, The day was at hand, he said, when Ontario’s Iron would pour province. Mr. Curran said Canada had been wealth into the for several years importing .an av- erage of between - $300,000,000 and $400,000,000 worth of iron and its products, and estimated the country had been losing $160,000,000 year ly in wages to Canadians. At present not a pound of iron ore was being mined in Canada, he said. Yet On tario ore was more accessible to the United States plants than that of their own fields. Algoma had enough iron ore already in sight to last for many years and there were infinite wafer powers; also coal pos sibilities. “What we want in American capital, not Mr. Curran. In the development iron resources Mr. Curran visualized a vast new industry that would catch the imaginations of men, build new towns; extend railroads and be came a permanent industry-more portajit than any now' within provincial borders.
