Tie is not the faith- ful dog, or the intelligent and affec- tionate dog, He is looked upon as a mean, treacherous brute, suffered to ran wild in the streets of a town for the service he may do as a public scavenger, But she said, Yea, Lord, She ad- mitted the justice of what Christ had said, but eagerly enrught it up and pressed it into service as an argu- ment for her side. For even the dogs eat the crumbs whichfall from their masters' table. It was the custom dur- ing the meal for the guests after thrusting their hands into the comm- on 'dish to wipe thein on the soft. white part of bread, which having thus used, they threw to the dogs. Then Jesus answered and said unto her. He answered "those wonderful words—perhaps the most pathetic words in the whole Bible—so, full of humility, of reverence, and yet with a certain archness, almost playfulness in them, as it were, turning our Lord's words against hint;" 0 woman, great is thy faith. "Our Lord had a very quick eye for spying faith. Be it done unto thee even as thou wilt. "She wanted only the • crumbs—she is invited to sit up as a banqueter." And her daughter was healed from that hour. She went straight to her house (Mark 7:80,) acting on her faith, and found her daughter cured. THE MIRACLES AND FAITH. And .:Jesus departed thence, and, cameni Tit g unto the sea of Galilee. Leaving the neighborhood of Tyre, our Lord and His disciples went still farther north to Sidon, then east- ward through northern Galilee, then southward along the eastern side of the Sea of Galilee through the reg- ion called Decapolis, or Ten Cities, because ithad ten cities of consider- able size. And He went up into the mountain. Some portion of the moun- tain range that extends east of the lake. And sat there. Thus indicat- ing His intention to teach, as that was the ordinary position of a tea- cher, And then carne unto Him great multitudes. Gadara was one of the Ten Cities, and the people had not forgotten how Christ had accomp- lished the wonderful cure of the two terrible demoniacs of Gadara about nine months before. Having with them the lame, the blind, the dumb, maimed, and many others, and they cast them clown at His feet. They laid their sick at Jesus' feet as if to let their manifest misery speak for them.; and indeed the Great Physi- cian needed no other entreaty. And He healed them. Think what an out - rush of power this involved—all these varied diseases, of the most terrible nature, thronging upon Hiin without pause! Insomuch that the multitude won- dered, when they saw the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, and the lane walking, and the blind seeing. `Christ's art of doing good to all was by doing good to the particular persons whom He met, and this too in the particular ways which they could appreciate. at e. An d His ministry was eloquent to them of heaven be- cause it was full of sacred pity and.. respect for their earthly pains and sorrows. So far from overlooking their frail and brittle bodies on the plea of caring more for their souls, He sought to beguile and lure them nto spiritual health byministering to their bodies." --Henry Norman Hud- son, And they glorified the God of Israel. Thus they showed that the healing was born.of their faith as well as of Christ's power. It was in the name of God that they had approach- ed the Son of God, and they gave God the glory, as Jesus would have them.

Mark says that she was a Greek, that is, a Gentile in religion, probably speak- ing Greek, and of Syrophoenician de scent, coining from the stock of the ancient heathen tribes whom Joshua drove out of Canaan. And cried saying, Have mercy on me, 0 Lord, thou son of David. Christ was'not I travelling about the country, but stay- ing in a house, for He did not want it known that He was there; My dau- ghter is grievously vexed with a de- mon. In the Greek of Mark's gospel it is "little daughter," and the afflic- tion was especially sad when it fell upon one so' young. But he answered her not a word. ,k That was indeed strange in Jesus. Who was always so courteous. And His disciples came and besought Him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us. Eastern women understand the art of persistent entreaty. To gain their case they will press it with a Passionate insistence far beyond any- thing known in the colder Occident. But he answered and said, I was not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. That is, our Lord's first mission was to the Jews, the Israelites. But she came and worshipped Hine. She prostrated herself as a suppliant in the Oriental fashion, kneeling down and touching her head to the ground. Saying, Lord, help Inc. She had been twice rejected, once. by His silence, and again by His apparent denial of interest in any but the Jews; yet her faith remained firm and her persev- erance invincible.

Pia ,for increased capacity and for t complete remodelling of some of t harbors ars being carried out, an the next few years will 'see st greater steps being taken. The i provements now under way are Ino than necessary,. for in sixteen ye Canada's trade expansion has f surpassed the most'optimistic es mates.: During 1928, imports at t port of Montreal reached the stupe dons figure of $246,617,698 as con pared with $145,629,791. in. 191 Exports for 1929 were .$234,267,99 while. for 1918 they were a me $73,157,247. Through Canada's fiv Principal gateways, . Montreal, V couver, -St. John, N.B„ Halifax, N.S and Quebec goods valued at $378 846,792_ were brought into the coun try, Meanwhile, the balance trade in favor of the Dominion, total of $480,824,204, was shippe out, according to an article in th Star. Naturally, with the tremendou improvements necessary to bring th Canadian seaports up to their props place, expenditures have loomed u very importantly. In 1928, a total $14,000;0.00 was voted by Parliamen for harbor .commission in Quebec, St John and Haliir�x. Quebec receive $8,500,000 of that own, while $b, 000,000 went to. St. John and $500, 000 to Halifax. &i1 this money i not yet spent, but is being expende upon programs of improvement an enlargement. More recently. $27,000, 000 was `voted, of which $8,000,00 Is for Vancouver, $10,000,000 to Montreal; $5,000,000 for Halifax $2,000,000 for Chicoutimi.. Tw years ago this last port received $2, 000,000 for improvement. Programs have been drawn up for the expenditure of these moneys, bu it is clear this will by no meanss carry out the. complete plans, and each year further appropriations will have to be made to provide for the handling of increased traffic. '< At Montreal, the greatest program of expansion in history is now under way. Before the 1980 season opens the east end of the harbor will be completely changed. Three new piers, larger than any at present existing, will be constructed. Three shipping berths will cost •$2,000,000. The electric railway system in' the harbor limits will be extended at a cost of the same amount. Grain con- veyor systems, berthing facilities, and other improvements will cost in the neighborhood of $4,000,000 before they are finished. Already 16,000,- 000 6,000; 000 bushels of wheat can be stored in the tremendous elevators which form an imposing skyline but still more additions are planned. Quebec has ceaselessly sought a greater share of the handling of gen- eral -Canadian business and has agi- tated for a revision of the railway aril which it felt discriminated. against it. In the fall of. 1927.the Board of Railway Commissioners re- medied this condition by according Quebec the same rates on grain for xport from Georgian Bay ports as to Montreal, and on' all traffic from To - onto ,and points nt westfor p export. As result, a decided improvement has sen recorded in recent 'years. klle ators there now can accommodate ,000,000 bushels, with conveyors, marine towers and grain galleries. iu ddition, a cold storage warehouse, f half a million cubic feet, and a sh house equipped for the .freezing. f one million pounds of fish, has een constrructed. By fall of this ear, four berths for the largest type 1 passenger steamers, two additional erths for large; ocean freighters, and wo berths for canal -sized vessel, will e completed.' Canada's principal Winter port on. he Atlantic, St. John, ranks third Iter Montreal and Vancouver in the otalyolunte of traffic. Fifteen coast- ise linea and twenty overseas steam - lip companies operate from the New iunswick city. Direct steamship ser - ices from Canada.to the British est Indies has contributed a eou- derable share of the traffic. Among le improvements scheduled are the onstruction of a grain conveyor gat ry; a grain jetty; a pier equipped ith fireproof sheds and shipping of - nes; one grain elevator of 2,400,000 isftels capacity; and the necessary 1lway track, roadways, sewerage id water supply. Halifax has increased its shipping Image by 100 per cent., and that the last five years. Out of the let - t appropriation, a million bushel 'ain elevator will be built. The natruction program is one of very neral ' nature, and some sorely eded improvements are planned.
