Ilas prpyer any power? Docs 1l pro- duce and resultb Hew can m weak dt ? t y petition or even my tears change the course of nature? The philosopher will always ask such questions. Men may have no ready answers and yet, in days of heartache, of emptiness of lite, of great sorrow and need, they will pray again, and find refreshing in their pray- ing. Ile whose teachings have led the fpot- sleps cf humanity Into the paths of peace, whom we all acknowledge as supreme In the moral and bpirttual realms, taught t.s bow to pray and hiin- eelt as a man set us the example of prayer. No one has accused hint of hypocrisy; but everywhere, in every creed and in none, we join in the prayer ho taught us. There is a seeming contradiction about this whole matter of prayer. Men al- ways have prayed; they pray in every religion; honest, open-eyed men of busi- ness and affairs, free from delusions or superstition, pray today. Yet wo know full well that natural laws cannot be changed, that though all men should pray that this night never might fall dnrknees would set in just the same. There ere even more serious difficul- ties about prayer than the natural ones. Can we oenceivo that a great Father, INFINITELY \VISE AND GOOD, watts for his children to pelit.on him to take care of them, waits for tis to pester him into doing good? if it were so would not the act of prayer be gaining au immoral advantage over these who might lack either time, knowledge, or disposition to pray? Power in prayer even has come to mean the ability to persuade the Al- mighty to do unjust, cruel and wicked things, to win him as an ally in an un- worthy cause, to secure for ourselves the immense advantage in the world's busi- ness and competition of having Omnipo- tence move crops and control mighty affairs for our profit. So pang as ,nen think of prayer only as petition they will fall into such errors. The keynote to all prayer is the SMOKING FORA PIANO. Record Broke in a Curious Contest in { London.

The power of prayer is not the power to secure earthly benefits tat hen t�y de -mules; it is the power thoughts and the will, the whole life, over into the atmosphere o! things eter- nal and spiritual. The effect of prayer Is seen, not in things obtained, but in transformations effected in tile charac- ter that breathes the air of heaven. Men always become like the tidings of which they think most. When prayer is the outgoing of the thoughts in aspira- tion, in contemplation of thin which is high and noble, a reachtng after that which surpasses the flesh and the pre- sent, a recognition of things infinite and divine, its efficacy is seen In the outer life. THE POWER OF PRAYER ;s not in I -ringing heaven down, but M lifting awn up. It Wellies a !acab's ladder on which the soul ascends lc heaven instead of lying prostrate at its feet. It serves to remind us, when we would be engrossed trill the things that aro but temporal, that there are things eternal. It is the inner life breathing and eating. Prayer is the directing of the life to- ward what is best. It is like the corres- pondence wo maintain with a dear friend, not because we would obtain favors from that friend. but because our hearts are hungry for friendship. So is the heart of man hungry for that which ices beyond bricks and business, for that which age cannot whither end death cannot affect. 1f we live only for the bread that per- ishes and for the things that are seen, how noon wo become of these things, the heart turns to clay, and the hcnvenly light dies from the yes. But to live to- ward the ideal, to seek the truth, to recognize and reach after the world greater than that of things, this is to pray and thus to be changed by the power of prayer into the glory of a greater life.

World's Temperance Sun- day. Golden Text: Rom. 14. 13. THE LESSON WORD STUDIES. Based on the text of the Revised Ver- sion. The Epistle to the Romans, -The ori- gin of the Christian Church al Ronne is not positively known. It was probably not founded by any of the apostles. but by Jewish Caristlans who came from Asia Minor or Palestine to the Roman capital. At the time of Paul's writing his epistle to lite Roman church this was already well established, consisting of a mixed Jewish and gentile membership. The time and pinr•e of the writing of the epistle are more easily determined than i'1 the case of 'sonic of the other New Testament books. Paul is writing from C,erinth, and Intrusts the bearing of the epistle to its destiny to one Phoebe, an native member of the church et Cench- rem, the harbor sectk.n of Corinth. The house in which Paul at this time is stay- ing is the meeting place of the Corinth- ian church. andbekongs to Galles !Rom. le 23; 1 Cor, 1. 14). One Erastus. des- eribe<I as lire "mconemits," or treasurer, 1 the city, also sends greetings through Paul to friends at !tome. The mention et these names and other similar definite indications point to the lime of Paul's visit to t:orintIi mentioned iii A•.ts 20. 2 and 3, which. according to the most probnble reckoning, occurred early in A.D. ee. The occasion for Paul's wrtt- ing. a•s explained in the intro(tuelien to the epistlg itself (11ont. 1. 1-15). was an letcnsoe desire on the part of Paul to (erne into communication with the Christian Church in the imperial city, and if possible to visit that ehtereh soon and preach the glorious gospel et sal- valion at dome also. The purpose un- derlying the writing of this partieula' kind n letter taevident. Nubtlcss, a povldentinlreason to l.e taken into account, 11 was part of God'e plan that such n letter should be written for the admonition of Chris - tons in niter years. But in all proba- bility there wits a more iniumedinte rea- son also. The apostle Paul certainly nwsl have had some real 1•:n`;wledge of the character and needs of the Roman church. whose faith had been already "proclaimed throughout the whole world." Ile longi to eonlribete some- thing to the spiritual upbuilding of this tnilhful company el disciples, and to lend them lute a deeper knowledge of spiri- tual truths and Christian experience.

WHERE THE BIGGEST INSURANCES ARE EFFECTED. Mostly Engaged In Marine Insurance- The nsuranceThe Meaning of the Term "Underwriter. Very ellen the expression "Al at Lloyd's" is heard, but few people ere aware of the reel significance of the phrase. Most people know that it is a term used in connection with shipping, and that Lkyd's has something to do with shipping. As a matter of fact, it Is impossible to think of our mercantile marine without Lloyd's Actually Lloyd's Is a combination of people interested in the insurance of shipping, and this powerful corporation exerts a very great influence. Lkyd's is really the headquarters of alt those engaged in marine insurance and simi- lar matters. Its peeper title is 'The C(.rporation of Ltovd'a," epd there are tranches in every part of the world. Lloyd's, of course, is not an insurfnce company. It is simply rt coumbinatkn of Individual members, each member trans- acting his own business, but being bound by the ooromon rules. In other we:rds, Lloyd's does not insure as a lx•dy, all biedness being transacted by individual members. These members divide the risk, each member taking A SMALL. PORTION ONee. Thus, in the cast of a policy for £1,000 it is quite probable that the risk would be split up between ten members. Each of these members would sign the policy, elating the amount of risk itnderloken. As the signatures are written on the pol- icy one under the oilier, the meaning of the tern "underwriter' becomes appar- ent. In the case of a large policy there may be columns of names, and so it would happen that should a vessel be ship- wrecked no Individual person %wild be responsible for the whole loss; in the case of disaster no member would have to pay more than the amount under- written by hien. It frequently happens that the fractional risk taken by an underwriter may be underwritten again ly other people. who will thus share his leas, if u h occurs. \\ Lloyds 1s mostly engaged in marine insurance, still every kind of risk 1s undertaken; practically the members wail insure any person against any imaginable risk. Sea insurance, by the way, is by far the OLDEST FORM OF INSURANCE; fire, and life insurance are comparatively new compared with the form of insuring against the perils of ttto sea. The combined capital of the under- writers of Lloyd's amounts to some mil- lion pounds, and tt is the boast of the ceeporalton ,that it leis never refused lo pay a genuine elate). oven In cases where it has not been legally responsi- ble. In order t0 oopOluct Its business, it Is convenient for 11 ikcyd'8 to cltasify and register ships. Ships in the flirt class are denoted by the well-known mark Al, the "A" having rekrence to the quality of the ship, and the "1" to the quality of the equipment. Only the beat ships are classed Al, and they only re - lain the mark •o long as they are in a Rt a pepper condition. Lled'a fines all manner of other slgne; thug, iron ships have a numeral affixed to the Al. There are other signs when a vessel is built of heavier plate than the rules require, when It has been built under a spectal survey, end in NUMEROUS OTHER CASES. AlltR,DO( JGNIT PISS VilfIS Tl� TRIM OF litIORWAGAMVTEeti. Mina el Biros Furnish Thema With Goth's--1'ke Unknown --Only Few Hundred Lett. Dr. George B. Gordon, curator of the University of Wxtnsylvania's archasologi- cat department, who returned recently after a six months' expedition through the wildest restore of the tar North- West, announces the disoevery of a new race Living along the Koskokwlm River, lit Alaska. Dr. Gordon brings back a strange tale of this new race, which had never be- fore seen a white man, and which differs from all other tribes of Alaoskan Indians. Dr. Gordon heard rumors of the race in 1905, and after innumerable hard- ships he reached lite territory in which these aborigines live in Adamic sim- plicity. They are called by the Eskinus "K►iskwagaunutee," and show strong traces of Mongolian ancestry, Crime and vice are utterly unknown among theta, and their religion is natural pan- theism. LIVE CLEANLY AND MORALLY. They know absolutely nothing of cor- ruption and degeneracy with which the whites have infected the Athabascan In- dians and Eskimos. Dr. Gordon lived fcr several inonths among them. "Though they are dying out," Dr. Gor- don said, "they are strong and clean physically and intelligent. They have retained ft to most ancient characteris- tics of dress and speech. In clothing, instead of wearing funs, they sew skins of birds into robes, using the breasts of kon and various species of ducks which abound In the river." Of their clothing, utensils, arms, etc., Dr. Gordon gathered collections, and when they arrive he and other ethnolo- gists will try to discover whether the tribe is of Asiatic origin or whether it migrated from Lower California. This new tribe is the only ane in Alaska which makes pottery, Dr. Gor- don says. All tho others are basket weavers. Dr. Gordon believes the race to be of ancient Asiatic origin, gradually driven by Athabascan Indians and Eski- mos to its present quarters, which is u natural fortress. They represent, per- haps, the most ancient dwellers of Alaska, who made their way down there from Asia. ONLY A FE\V HUNDREDS LEFT.

A Traveller In Japan Took a Bath in the Drinking Water. While Journeying In Japan, the au- thor of "Kakennono" had an amusing experience which, but for the good na- ture of a Japanese family, might have proved most unfortunate. Having cho- sen a good silo In a corner of the tea- house where he and his companion were to spend the night, they proceed - ea to unpack and wash. Just outside stood n iargc water -butt. Having been directed to wash outside, 1 slopped out. The tub was half -full of water. and looked very like the ordinary bath -tub of Jnpnn. It was the first time 1 bad seen a bath outdoors, al- though they figure so largely in travel- lers' tales; still, there was nothing else, sc boldly 1 phmged the top half of my- self into the water. A simultaneous scream from the man, the wife and the boy brought me up, dripping and bewildered. What hail I done? Not sinned agnlnst their moral code. surely? No, worse! Washed in their drinking water! Of course what 1 ought to have done was to unearth a brass pan, tucked away behind the tub, take down 8 bam- boo dipper, dip water into the pate, and wash in that. Quite simple, after it was explained. The amiable man remained amiable even after this calaalrophc, and the In- different wile had not been shaken from her indifference save for the apace of one brief scream; while the small boy, at such an exhtbllton of curious man- ners on the part of the Yin San, grew more inquisitive than ever, and we fried ham, ate tinned tongue, and cut slices et bread under a close and exhaustive series of comments and questions.
