The old adage toile us that "Satan

indolent male hunts the devil."
Therefore, my brother, the easiest
way to overcome the temptations
which. besot the commercial traveler
during the long, lonely hours of the
Sabbath day is to worship God
while away from home in the same
way you would, or rather ought to
yoa were at hozne.
This expectation, my YOU friend,

trate-a this common tendency of the
bumatt rote to bo worse away from

tireside in the quaint and pointed
answer which sbe gave to the Primo
of Wales when. visiting Queen. Vic-
toria, some years ago. The then heir
apparent to the English Gnome ask-
ed her what she was most impressed

the English people are so refined told

vout in their own homes," sbe re-
plied. "One would never have guess-
ed it from the spechners X have seen

An average man eau cominit as a

when he is traveling alone, in a rail-
road train, or stopping alone in a
hotel, or living itbone with strabg-

But , though the swift moving cur-
rents of daily influences in a com-
xnercial traveler's life are apt to
flow in the wrong direction when he
is away from home, yet that is no
valid excuse tor nis yielding to
temptation. In the first place, God
has 'distinctly declared that he will
never allow any temptation to come
nigh us sehich is greater than we
can bear, if we will only throw our-
selves upon. his mercy and plead and
continue to plead for divine strength.
Mighty as are the temptations the
commercial traveler meets with
when he is away from home, the
divine power which is at his dis-
pbsal infiritcly stronger. It can
tritanph over every .opposing force.
But there is still another reason
why the commercial traveler should
not yield to the temptations which
he meets away from. home. The
modern knight of the grip is Sia-
ntlirally a `stronger man, mentally',
morally and physically than the.
aVerage man ivho is compelled to
stay at home and work. It takes
brains, and lots on brains to be able
to sell goods away from home. The
time is past when thb great mer-
chants think that any drunken,
gambling, blaspheming ehiploye is
good enough to go upon the road.
The employers to -day demand that
their commercial travelers be men

DEMANDED. 13Y PROPRIETY.
A lady tells an amusing story of
her cook, a buxom young woman
from the 'Emerald Isle, with more
than her share of the Celt's humor
and readiness of retort. The cook,
like most of her kind, had designs

frequently enticed him into her kit -
ch en with tempting dainties.
This state of affairs went on un-
heeded by the mistress for some
time, but one night a circumstance
arose which nrompted her to remon-
strate with Bridget. In persging
along the lobby the Mistress hap-
pened to look -into the kitchen, when
she saw noCone, but two, gentlemen

much. Next morning she interviewed
Bridget.

policemen sitting in the kitchen last

spreading her features. ''yez wouldn't
