How An Agent Sold a Gas -Burner -to Mr. Mortimer. I 'Have a Yoke, Jesus Said,, Which Will Enable, YOU to Stand Any Strain, Do Any Work, A tall, thin man, clad in shabby garments,• suddenly appeared in Mr. Mortimer's study. Then, as Chambers's Journal goes' on to say, he cleared his. throat. • "I have ventured to call to lay before you one of the most aston- ishing inventions of modern times," lie began, impressively. "A gas - burner, sir:" Mr. Mortimer with busy arrang- ing some papers in a corner, and having both hands full, with a pen held crosswise in his 'mouth, he was for the moment quite at his visit- or's mercy. "Perhaps, sir, you are aware that in the case of every kind of burner except the one I now show you, gas gives off a noxious effluvium, hav- ing a peculiarly ruinous effect up- on the eyesight." By this time Mr. Mortimer had emptied his hands and mouth, and was advancing. The agent started back in distressful sorrow. "How you have suffered al- ready !" he exclaimed, fixing: his eyes upon Mr. Mortimer's. "Your sight; sir, wound not last six. months longer. This must not be," With a nimbleness that rooted Mr. Mortimer to the spot, the agent. glided to the table, 'th'pped off the commentators r , to se the; untied near the northern end of the Dead Sea in Old Testament times. 4.

Instantly, with. that ready compassion for distress which was 'so characteristic of His. nature, the young .man leaps to the panting animals and quickly points -out to their troubled driver that the yokes\are badly made and in part. defective.

Just -how such a "yoke" as this can fair- ly be described as "easy" or such a "burden" as "light" has been answered with as little adequacy as the parallel question as to how such a "yoke" or "burden" is to bring "rest" to the person assum- ing it. - If we would really understand just what Jesus had in mind when He uttered this saying lot us return in imagination to the days of His young manhood, when the Naya- rene was a carpenter.
