THE CABPET BALL MONEY

Stratford weaver, found in a ball of

ven into a rug has been paid over to-
Henry Doerr, of Auburn, less $25'
which Mr. Doerr asked Mr. Asquith
to retain as a reward for his honesty
in reporting the find.
There was
the money, a Kitchener woman who
claimed to be a daughter of the late
Mrs. Doerr. She wrote to Mr. As
quith asking that the money be sent
to her. Upon hearing from her Mr.
Asquith put the money in the bank
deciding that he would wait to learn
the rights of the matter before let
ting anybody have it. However, af
ter conferring with Mr. Doerr he was
convinced that the latter was the
rightful owner of the money and
paid it over to him. Mr. Doerr said
he did not know the Kitchener wo
man and had never heard of her un
til her letter was shown to him by
Mr. Asquith.
then, and the next day was brought
before the highest Jewish council,
the Sanhedrin.
His brief address there, testifying
to the hope of Israel and the resur-
rction of the dead, threw the coun
cil into a turmoil, and they would
have had Paul killed had not he
been rescued again by soldiers of
the chief captain.
The Lord Jesus Himself appeared
to Paul the next night, reassuring
and strengthening him, and coven
anting that he should bear witness
of Him at Rome,
Then more than forty Jews made
a solemn covenant to eat no food
until they had assassinated Paul;
the plot was disclosed to the Roman
•officer, and he sent Paul under
heavy military escort, up the coast
to Caesarea.
Thus -he came before the Roman
Governor of the Province, Felix, and
after a few days, when the high
priest and the elders, with a profes
sional prosecutor, came and brought
their charges against him, Paul made
another defense before the Govern
or.
Felix was profoundly impressed;
he refused to release Paul to the
Jews, but kept him in bonds, hop
ing for a bribe to set him free. Thus
Paul spent two years in technical im
prisonment at Caesarea, but with
personal liberty; and a new Govern
or, Festus, came into office.
Another plot of assassins was
made against the missionary’s life,
but Festus kept his prisoner safe,
and again the Jews had to come
from Jerusalem and bring their false
charges “which they could not prove

saying, “I appeal unto Caesar.” This
meant that his case must come into
the courts at the capital of the Em
pire, Rome.
Finally King Aigrippa came to
Caesarea, and when the Governor
had told hm about the unusual case
the King expressed a desire to hear
the man, and this was arranged with
great pomp and ceremony. Paul’s de
fense before King Agrippa is one of
the classics of literature and Chris
tian history.
Respectfully, -courteously, with
true dignity, Paul addressed the
King as one exceptionally familiar
with the customs and teachings of
the Jews. This was Herod Agrippa
II, a -great, grandson of Herod the
Great, who had tried to take the life
■of the babe Jesus.
Paul appealed to the known facts
concerning his entire life as a strictj

'Then he told of his early mistaken
zeal against the Christians, and of
the miracle of his conversion, when
a light from Heaven, brighter than
the sun, struck him to the earth,
and the risen and glorified Lord
commissioned him to carry .the Gos
pel to both the Jews and the Gen
tiles.
“Whereupon, O King Agrippa, I
was not disobedient unto the Heav
enly vision.” And for this season
the Jews wanted to kill him! Yet
Paul had continued for almost thir
ty years his obedient testimony to
his Lord, witnessing and “saying
none other things than those which
the -prophets and Moses did say
should come: that Christ should suf
fer, and that He should be the first
that should rise from the dead, and
should shew light unto the people',
and to the Gentiles.”
King Agrippa interrupted, telling
Paul he was beside himself. Paul re
spectfully denied this, and asked the
King: “Believest thou the prophets?
I knew that thou believest.”
Then came Agrippa's immortal
word: “Almost tliou persuadest me
to be a Christian.”
But -when the King and the Gov
ernor were alone they said freely to
each other: “This man doeth tooth

And Agrippa said to Festus: “This
man might have been set at liberty,
if he had not appealed to Caesar.”

“With the Washington administration still bent

least one Canadian bank has had applications for deposits rang
ing as high as $;500,000 from individual Americans seeking a
haven for their menaced wealth.
Commenting on this phase of the situation, one leading fi
nancier made the pungent observation recently that with United
■States capitalists taking every precaution to protect themselves
against the threatening invasion of their wealth, they were only
presenting further evidence of the historic fact that when money
is attacked the poor man, not the rich man, is the loser. Long
before the attack takes place, the holder of wealth has made pro
vision to protect himselves in one manner or another. The real
sufferer is the poor man, who is unable, either through lack of
knowledge or through lack of means, to build the necessary
hedges against the depreciation of his hard-earned dollar.
•Speaking of the present financial (Situation in the United
States The Guarnty .'Survey has this to say:
“Perhaps never before,” it states, “have Americans been so
completely mystified by the actions of their government. Their
surprise arises, apparently, not so much from the fact that the
gold policy has failed to raise prices, but from the fact it was
ever expected to have that effect. Why the purchase of gold in
foreign financial centres, by the United States Government
should raise commodity prices in the United (States seems to be
beyond the comprehension of the average citizens. It is a form
of monetary manipulation that hds no exact parallel in financial
history,”

Ask Any Man in Whom
You Have Confidence,
About Life Insurance
T <
The more successful a man is, the more he appreciates the
benefits of life insurance, . . . For this reason we suggest that
you ask friends, in whom you have confidence, what THEY think
about Life Insurance. They know . . . they have seen the com-
, fart and happiness that it has brought to so many of their friends.
For example, by means of a Confederation Life Endowment
Policy you can make provision for dependants until they become
seif-supporting. You can also provide that, if through accident
or illness, you become totally disabled, your premiums will be
waived during the period of your disability and you will receive
a monthly cheque to replace, in part, your lost earning power.
And, finally, when the policy matures, you will receive the entire
proceeds of the Endowment in a lump sum, or you may take it
in the form of a definite Monthly income for life.
The Confederation Life Association will gladly send you par
ticulars of this most desirable form of Endowment Policy, if you
fill out and mail the coupon below. Do it now. It is well worth
your while.
