On Paul's journey from Miletus to Jerusalem there were several delayer At Tyre they stayed seven days while the ship's cargo was being unloaded. They found some Christian friends there who seemed persuaded that Paul's life would be in danger should he proceed to Jerusalem so they tried to turn him from his purpose. An- other lengthened delay took place at Caesarea. Here again efforts were put forth to keep him from going on to Jerusalem, prophets and prophetes- ses alike foretelling what would hap- pen should he continue his journey. Paul was adamant in his purpose and reproved them for trying to dissuade him. All that a man has will he give for his life but Paul would give life itself for the name of the Lord Jesus he told them (verse 13). So they continued their journey and reached Jerusalem where the bre- thren received them gladly. The next day Paul paid a visit to the res- ident Apostle James, and to him and all the elders present he declared what God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry. They re- joiced with him and glorified God but at the same time they drew his at- tention to the large number of Jews which had become believers. This would be as gratifying to Paul as his news about the conversion of the Gen- tiles was to his hearers. But they also told him how zealous these Jews were of the law and how disposed they were to think ill of him because of his teaching the Jews which were among the Gentiles to forsake Moses. They, therefore, desired Paul to show by some public act that their charge against him was false. Paul consent- ed to do as they urged, for it was his avowed principle as we read in 1 Cor. 9:90. To the Jews became I a, Jew, that I might gain the Jews. Verses 27-30.—The Outcome. When we see the beginning of a trouble we cannot tell how long it will last nor how it will end so it was in the case of Paul. His action in join- ing himself to the Nazarites was mis- interpreted, and a riot occurred and his arrest followed. It was not the Jews resident in Jerusalem but they who had come up to the feast who stirred up the city, crying out that Paul was both teaching and doing things against the ceremonial law of Moses. The temple was surrounded by var- ious areas and the very outermost one was called the Court of the Gentiles and into it alone was it lawful for them to enter. For a Gentile to enter the temple proper was to defile it and no more tffective appeal could be made to the passions of the people than to indicate that Paul had brought an Ephesian into the temple. The whole city was roused, Paul was seiz- ed and they were about to kill him. Verses 31 to 39,—The Authorities In- tervene. During feast days military posts were established at various points in the city and it soon became known that a disturbance had arisen. The commander of the Roman garrison, by name, Claudius Lysias, was noti- fied. He took officers and soldiers and went at once to the temple. When they were seen approaching those beating Paul, ceased. The com- mander ordered Paul to be removed and bound with two chains and thus was the prophecy of Agabus, deliver- ed when he met Paul at Caesarea on his way to Jerusalem, fulfilled. Claud- ius assumed that Paul was a criminal and inquired who he was and what he had done. He could get no certain information from the crowd for one cried•one thing and another something else, so he ordered Paul to be taken into the castle. The fury of the mob was so great that the soldiers had :much difficulty in getting him there, having indeed to take him up in their arms and carry him to safety. When the people could not reach him they cried after him the very words that were spoken to Jesus: "Away with him." Paul appeared to be the most com- posed of them all, for he addressed the chief captain and asked if he might give some account of himself, seeing the multitude had failed to en- lighten him as to who he really was. The (thief captain had his mind made up that Paul must be that Egyptian Who had been the ringleader in a re- cent insurrection and who, when his followers were killed, taken prisoners or scattered, had escaped and who en returning to Jerusalem had been re- cognized and mobbed. He was there- fore surprised to have Paul address him and, after explaining who he really was, a totally different person from the criminal Claudius Lysiva suspected him of being," he humbly asked for permissionto speak to the' people before he was taken to the castle. Paul's friends both at Tyre •and Caesarea had tried - to dissuade him from going up to Jeittalent, feeling sure if he did they *Mild' netear see hint again, hitt by his being made a prisoner at Jerusalem he.,,was goon af- ter returned to Caesarea and although kept a pilled& be was allowed to dee his friends, e6 that the eleurch there had Much -mere ef his atiMpanY and halt) far to years than it otherwise possibly could MI6 hat• he cbfag Ifrittstt4af tilte`Chrigiality gt* ti t4altofhtsv ACCIPAGfil5.0. all cases to do the will of God, even in apposition to his own will and de- sires, whether he is called to act or to suffer ( Rieger ) Blessed- is he who submits to the will of God; he can never be unhappy. Men may deal with him as they will; they may expose him to death by fire or by water, may confine him in a dungeon or release him, He is with- out care; he knows that all things work together for good to him, Rom. 8:28. (Luther). WORLD MISSSIONS It is said that the needle of a mis- sionary's wife was the simple instru- ment God Used to give access to Or- iental Zenanas. A piece of embroid- ery, wrought by her deft fingers, found its way to the secluded inmates of a zenana; if a woman could do such work as that, other women could learn under her instruction; and so, with the cordial consent of the hus- band; this Christian woman was wel- comed to the inside of his home and as she taught his wives the art of em- broidery, she was working the "scar- let thread," dyed in the blood of the Lamb, into the more delicate fabric of their hearts and lives. Rev. Arthur T. Pierson, D.D. HOW TO RELIEVE CHILDREN'S COLDS Avoid Serious Results by Using Baby's Own Tablets. When a child shows the first symp- toms of a cold, such as sneezing, red- ness of the eyes, clogged or running nose, prompt measures for relief may avert serious results. Mothers should always have on hand some simple, safe and (active remedy for imme- diate use. • ' . Baby's Own Tablets act quickly, contain no opiates or narcotics, are tasteless and harmless. Mrs. Joseph Cadieux, Holyoke, Mass., says:—"I have used Baby's Own Tablets sfor my children and find them a very satisfactory medicine. When my lit- tle tidy had a cold I gave him the Tablets at night and he was well next day. I give them to the children for constipation and they always do good. I think Baby's Own Tablets are much easier to give a child than liquid medicine. I recommend the Tablets to all mothers who have small children and believe they should always be kept on hand." Baby's Own Tablets are sold by all medicine dealers or will be sent by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. THE PELICAN ATE THE PIGEON An astonishing thing happened in St. James's Park, London, the other afternoon. Some people were throwing bread on the green to attract one of the big pelicans there when a. greedy pigeon came up with great audacity and snatched a morsel. This was too much for the pelican, which flapped its wings, snapped at the pigeon, and to the consternation of everyone, NERVES AND FAINTING SPELLS Sent Woman to Be& Great Change After Taking Lydia E.

I suffered with fainting spells until I was no longer any good for my household duties and had to take to my bed. The doctor said I should have an operation, but I was not in a fit condition at that time. My neighbor said, Why don't you try Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg- etable Compound? I am sure it will do you good and ill save those doctor's bills.'

ROMANCE' CALLED we RUTH TABOR'S DEAT11 One would expect romance and arse events to be suggested by the name of Ruth Silver Dollar Echo Tabor, and one would not be disap- pointed. The beed•er of this curious name died in Chicago the other day from an accident. It was supposed that she pulled a kettle of boiling water over herself while in a frenzy of intoxication. She had been a fa- miliar figure in the underworld of that city for years, and it was from the underworld that enough money was raised to defray her funeral ex- penses. When this became noised a- broad by the papers, who knew her story, a relative came forward with the money and the subscriptions were returned to those who had made them. Ruth was the daughter of Horace A. W. Tabor, once a United States Sen- ator, and one of the most picturesque characters in the history of silver mining in Colorado. At one time, Senator Tabor was worth fifteen mil- lion dollars, but his own generosity and lack of business sense reduced him to poverty 'as swiftly as luck had raised him to riches. He worked on the streets of a city to which he had contributed hundreds of thou- sands of dollars; for despite his for- mer generosity there were few who sympathized with him. But in the end kindlier feelings prevailed and he was made postmaster of Denver. But he died in a few months, leaving his wife and daughters with nothing in the world except a dubious title to a mine. Later they got a clear title and the wife has been working the claim ever since. She has made only a bare living but she clings to hope. Tabor was born in Vermont in 1830, and in 1855 set out with his wife for Kansas in a train of covered wagons. He became a member of the Topeka Legislature, one of the many free states set up about this time, but the legislature was dispersed at the point of the bayonet by American soldiers, and Tabor continued his westward trek with the gold seekers. He arrived in California Gulch Color- ado, and in a few months washed up $5,000. It was far more money than he had ever had before in his life, and he quit mining and started as store keeper. In the next year or two he opened up several stores in Colorado mining camps. His wife was his faithful partner and when times were hard she took in boarders and washed dishes to keep down expenses. Tabor was not a good business man. He was an easy mark for anybody who wanted to borrow his cash or get groceries on credit. They lived in hopes of some day striking the mother lode, and so they battled along with adversity until 1878. In this year two tender -feet, shoemakers, named Rische and Hook, drifted into camp looking for somebody to grubstake them. Edwin Harrison, an old timber, agreed to help them, but when they called he .was busy with other mat- ters and they went to Tabor's store. He was too occupied at the time, but told them to take what they wanted and not bother him. The partners took about $60 worth of supplies, and made a memorandum, naming Tabor as their partner. They went to work on an abandoned claim amid the derision of the old timers, but in nine days came across something which attracted their attention be- cause of its weight. It was a black, greasy looking dirt, and none of the gold miners had seen it before. An assay proved it to be carbonate of lead carrying a fabulous value in silver. The discovery gave birth tb one of the greatest mining booms in history. In two years the popula- tion of California Gulch increased from 300 to 40,000. The name of the place was changed to Leadville, and in the first two years of the great boom nearly $400,000,000 of silver was mined. And it was hap- pily mined. A man who found the stuff could take it out with a pick and shovel and bucket. It seemed that everybody had a good chance to become rich, and undoubtedly many did become rich who never be- fore had as much as a hundred dol- lars at a time. Among them • was Tabor, whose $60 grub stake netted him $1,300,000 in the course of a few months, and in two years he had amassed $5,- 000,000. The night life in Leadville in those days was as near the night life of Paris as the citizen could imagine. Champagne was the fav- orite drink, and as many diamonds were shown as might appear at a gala night of the Metropolitan Opera. Tabor was drawn into the orgy of mad spending. He tired of his wife, who by this ime was mid- dle-aged and looked elderly. He di- vorced her, settling on her a million dollars and took as his wife "Baby Doe," a pink and gold girl, ex- tremely popular in the West. Her real name *as Elizabeth McCourt. She was a very pretty woman and Tabor was devoted to her, The first wife remained in Leadville,,helieving that sooner or later her former bus.. band would return to her.
