We must not be elated by suc- cess nor discouraged by failure. We need the preparation of prayer (Luke 0: 12) and the enduement of the Holy Spirit (Luke 24: 49, Ants 2: 4). We must be on the watch ..for souls (Joint 3: 5; 4: 7). Failure soiiitiines results from lack of furnishing. A than who had been in the Arctic region engaged in whaling, landed at Dundee. Wishing to bear the gospel, he entered one of the ehurc'hes. Coming out a mate ased hint, "Well, .Tar,,. dr ee did you lie the ser- mon?"

Courage. To sandertake what God commands with absolute fearless- ness (Ezek. 2: 7). Not only to draw with drachms gospel invitations, but to drag with earnest warning. Not only to life up the cross, but to show the looking glass and cut with the sword. 3. Knowledge of our craft. (1) Knowledge of salvation. To be able to say with a happy face, "Now are we the sons of God" (1 John 3: 2), there must be no doubt of our diseiplesls]p, (2) Knowl- edge of our guide book. Because it will thoroughly furnish as for our work (2. Tim. 3: 17), and enable Us to teach in all wisdom (Col. 3: 16). (3) Knowledge of men, their haunts, their occupations, their prejudices, their arguments. Tlie timid, the careless, the defiant, each need different methods.

Par twenty centuries the secret of the wonderful balms with which the gladiators and charioteers of Ancient Greece and Rome healed their wounds lay undiscovered. Zam-Bok 's the modern counterpart of these balms, and owes"lts great success to the same root cause -it is purely vegetable. Since'its discovery Zarii-Buk has been welcomed in mansion and cottage, i, The reasons for this trl"umph of science are simple and few. Taking a lesson from the Ancients, the pro- prietors of .Zarn-Buk first of all wisely decided that the ideal balm .must be purely herbal and contain not the slightest trace of rancid animal fats or poisonous minerals.
