"What wall It weigb?" said the friend. "Eighty-tive stone la stone is fourteen pounds), live 1 weight," was Jack's reply. Further, Jack ventured to ,say that it would fetch twenty-four pounds (l.ngtiab money) If E. J.

The amazing thing is that, though Jack• Jefferson had 001 before seen the beast, knew nothipg about 1te weight, and bad mol been in touch with suetloueer or the owner, that steer did weigh just eighty-four stone. It was sold for twenty-four pounds, and E. J. Heine was the auvtioneer who knocked it down.

Paul wrote this letter to Philemon for the express purpose of getting him to forgive his servant Oneelmua and retrive him back lovingly.

The beat way Ito secure the doing of any signal act of Christian generoelt,, such as Paul wished of Philemon, Is to abow abso- lute confidleoce that It will be done, because it is In accordance with what we know of the doer's character. •It's a shame to tell Arnold a Ile: be always tritsta us,' the Rugby boys used to say. Nothing could so powerfully have swayed Philemon to grant Paul's request aa Paul's graceful mention of his benedeence, which mention 1s yet by no means conscious d'plontacy, but Instinctive kindliness." After honest and affectionate praise of Philemon, Paul now ap- proaches the main purpose of his let- ter. But even now he does not blast it out at once. He probably aoti- c•ipated that his friend was justly an- gry with his runaway 'lave. lie be- seeches where be m'gbt command. "Fur love's sake"—not merely bis to Pbilemon, nor Philemon's to him, but the bond which unite, all Christian souls together, and binds them all. to Christ.
