PRAYER 0 ' Lord, we have a busy world about us. Eye, ear and thought are needed in all our work. May our spiritual life hold on its course, when our mind cannot consciously turn to Thee to commit each particular act to Thy service. Hear this our prayer for our Saviour's sake. Amen. Thomas Arnold. S. S. LESSON FOR FEBRUARY 2nd Lesson Topic—Putting God's King- dom First. Lesson Passage—Matthew 6:5-13, 19-21, 31-33. Golden Text—Matthew 6:33. "When thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are; for they nave to pray standing in the syna- gogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men." Right things may be done in a wrong way, and so may lose their value. It is right to give, right to be done in a wrung way. We do not understand whet is meant by these words, "long prayers, vain repeti- tions, and much speaking," though sometimes we characterize a prayee as long when it extends to twenty minutes; but that was not the meas- ure indicated by the words of Jesus Christ. It had come to be in his time a matter of settled conviction among certain people to whom he now defin- itely refers, that if. they only prayed times enough, kept on saying the same things over and over again, they -would purchase heaven as a matter of right, as we purchase an article by haying down a certain money value for it on the counter. Jesus Christ, having reference to this mechanical piety, said, "They think that they shall be heard for their much speaking." He cautioned them against this and told them the all -seeing God "knoweth what things ye have need of 'before ye ask him." Following this Jesus gave them a prayer which w'e to -day call "The Lord's Prayer." Verses 19-21. In this passage there is, first, an exhortation, and, secondly, a reason for it. The exhortation is, "Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth;: lay up for yourselves trees- " tires in heaven." The reason is, 'For where you treasure is, there will your heart be also." Christ's one anxiety is about the condition of the 3seart. If it be right, the whole out- going of the life will be right, but if the heart be wrong, then all the ac- tions that make up • the sum total of •the duties and exercises of life will also be wrong. There is; however, in •Chmist's wards no exhortation against acquiring and laying up property. 'The world must have property, and 'the more that .property is in good hands the better. The more there is in the hands of the man whose heart is right towards God the more the poor get, the more the church has. A second exhortation and reason rare given in the words, "Lay not up for youeselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt." 'In Christ's time property consisted largely of linen' and embroidered 'goods. To have great stores of these was, the Jews' great notion of wealth. So Christ's exhortation to beware of the north rwas a very practical one. Then the treasures were largely hid- den in the earth or in the mud hous- es. Men would dig deep pits in the field and hid their most valuable posses- sions and there they would be in dam - ger of rusting. To the builder of a mud house Christ said, "Beware that thieves do not break through and steal." There is always danger to be guarded against so Christ said and still says, "Riches can be stolen, can perish, can fly away, therefore, look out for treasures that are not subject to these vexations and haras- sing contingencies." Paul in his epistle to the Colossiains voices Christ's admonition to the disciples, using these •words, "if ye then be risen with Christ seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth at the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth." Verses 31-33. In these words, "Take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink- or, Wherewithal -shall we be clothed?" we do not get at the Saviour's meaning in this English word "thought." When this transla- tion was made, the word thought meant anxiety, restless, caarking care. It is against such that Jesus Christ warns his disciples. If we want to be free. from anxious thought our re- ligion must be that of trust; love, faith—a resting in the Lord and wait- ing patiently. for Him. WORLD MISSIONS Lighting Candles. Fifty and five years ago a candle was lighted which was in God's provi deuce, to have a greater radiance than those who saw its first beams could know. In one sense they were unconscious of the dark places of de- spair and suffering to which its light would penetrate. This was not of men, but of God, for He lighted that candle. The current year is but nine months ord, but these months have contained unusual encouragement. The year began with men and women literally clamoring for admission at the doors of our homes in India and the East. Theirs was the importun- ity that knew no denial. It was no easy task to decide whose need was greatest. One of our honorary mis- sionary superintendents confesses to emotion when the selection to fill eighteen places in an already over- crowded home meant that he was con- fronted with fifty-three applicants all actually needy. Our encouragement lies in the fact of generous response to our appeals for more accommoda- tion. The gratitude of those admitted is the thanks we render to all' who have made it possible to receive and to relieve those in distress.. Candles of love and sympathy have thus been lighted, and those overtaken on life's way by the darkness of disease and sorrow have taken courage and pres- sed on though faint with weariness. —From Without the Camp. A Mending Hint. Do your husband and children wear sport stacks? If they do, you have no doubt discovered that with all the various shades of darning silk and darning cotton there is simply none that matches the mixed colors that you find in these socks. I find that by threading a strand of gray and a strand of 'blue, for instance, in the same needle, I can get so nearly the same effect in a blue -gray heather mixture that my husband, who is fastidiot,Ii'a, to the "nth" degree, does not even notice when they have been darned. Removing Rusty Screws or Bolts. Screws or bolts that cannot be re- moved because they have become rusted in place should be heated by applying a red-hot iron or heat from a torch. The expansion and contrac- tion of the metal will loosen them. HOUSEHOLD HINTS If your rocking chair creaks, rub the under side •of the rockers with soap. Sandpapering them slightly, and then rubbing them with a little floor wax is just as efficacious.

N•ewt'Liskeard„ Ont., Jan. 30.—(Spe- cial).—"I have used Dodd's Kidney Pills for Kidney trouble and severe backaches and find them very good,' ,writes Mrs. M. Bonley, a well knowr. resident of this place. "I would not be witheut them. We always keep a good'eupply in the house, so that if any one of us get any aches, we know what to take. It's the Dodd's Kidney Pills everytime." Dodd's Kidney Pills have become popular all over the country because people have tried them and found them gpod. They are purely and simply a Kidney remedy.' They help Rheumatism, Backache, Urinary trou- bles and all ailments arising out of faulty Kidneys. Dodd's Kidney Pine have restored sound health tonhousands of troubled women and men. They can be obtain- ed from all druggists. There Also Should be a Box of Baby's Own Tablets. 'To keep her little ones well is the constant aim of every mother and to help her in this task she should al- ways keep a box of Baby's Own Tab- lets in the home. These Tablets have saved many little lives when illness came on suddenly. The majority of troubles which af- flict little ones are those which arise from a disordered condition of the stomach and 'bowels. It is in quickly correcting these disorders that Baby's Own Tablets show their value. They 'banish constipation and indigestion; correct colic and diar- rhoea; break up colds and simple fevers and allay teething pains. Concerning the Tablets Mrs. E. Rob- erts, Cap aus Os., Que., writes:—"' always keep Baby's Own Tablets in the house as I know of nothing to equal them for little ones." The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' ,Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. CONDENSED LIFE STORY OF EDGAR WALLACE Edgar Wallace, the English writer, whose books have acquired a vogue rarely equalled by those of any other author, has written almost as many as Dumas, pere.• His has been a very colorful career. Possessed of great power of observation, he has stored away in the treasury of his brain,in- r.umerable incidents that will supply him with material for many future stories. There are but few writers capable of such continuous and pro- ductive work. It has been asserted that he dictates not fewer than 6,000 words a day, a tremendous feat when it is considered that he has been writ- ing for an extended period, and that his American publishers put out a new book on the 13eh of every month. Four years ago Wallace was a serial - journalist, writing for $15 a thous and words; 30 years ago an illiterate half -cockney; at 10 an associate of burglars and receivers of 'stolen goods; at nine an orphan destined for the work -house. His range of experi- ence is astouding, As a young medi- cal orderly he worked on a handyman with ice anti cold sponges, to bring himout c lirium tremens, to per- form an execution the next morning. A private soldier one moment, collab- orating with Kitchener; the next, on a journalistic stunt to get more gen- erous terms in South Africa. The first money that he earned by writing was from a comedian will paid him $20.00 for a lyric that he had written for him; he was at the time in South Africa and wrote a weekly column for a paper in Cape Colony, for $7.50 an article. He also for six months sent a copy weekly to two other papers, and wrote headlines for the Cape Times. Wallace was an indefatigable worker and practiced condensation, tackled long articles, heavy reviews, studied histories, works on economics and encyclopedias. When told by the commanding officer that he was making too much money and that it was subversive of discip- line, he borrowed $100 and bought his discharge. Through an error of a girl ,who, instead of sending his art- icles to his agent, sent them to Lon- don, he was brought to the attention of the London News which engaged him. Arriving in London he found himself already known, and received an appointment as chief correspon- dent in the Boer war His most mas• terly crooks• are not more masterly than he. Finding that it was prohib- ited to send news from the front, he arranged with a Jew to have his bro- ther, who lived in London, receive his messages and, deliver them to his paper. When the censor refused to pass his message reading, "Peace ne- gotiations begun, representativeg in Pretoria. Alfred Milner has gone to secure basis of negotiationf," he wir- ed.

Another example: The Kaiser is Bunting in Upper Silesia. A man of fifty, a great landed proprietor, one of the gentlemen of his household, ap- pears among the guests. In front of ell his other guests, male and female, the Kaiser greets him: "What, you old swine, you, too, have been invited?" A day at Kiel: The King of Italy lands ata H'oltenau dressed in Prussian hussar uniform out of compliment to his German imperial host. Steps lead from his yacht to the sea-wall where he is to land. The steps are some- what steep for his short legs and. he goes down very carefully. "Look, children," said the Kaiser to those around him, "Look how the lit- tle ape climbs down the steps." One of those in the crowd thus ad- dressed is the military attache of the Italian embassy in Berlin. He speaks and understands German perfectly. Naturally, he reports to his king a- bout the incident. The Triple Alli- anee gets its first earthquake crack, to be made deeper a few years later when Italy leaves the Triple Alliance and fights against it in the World War. A last picture of Wilhelinian tact- lessness: Edward Seventh, the King of England, comes on an unofficial visit to Hamburg to pay a last sa3 call on his dying sister, the Empress Frederica, mother of the Kaiser. The latter meets him as he is stepping down from his private car and hitting him on the stomach, says jovially: "Well, little uncle, how goes it?" Never at any time, says the author bitterly, did the Kaiser ever have the instinct for the right thing. He con- trasts this with the famous example of the old empress. On November 9, 1918, Wilhelm wired to his wife that he thought of leaving Germany- She wired back as fast as she could; "You stick to your post and I will stick to mine!" Wilhelm had no such lofty inten- tions. He ran away to safety, leav- ing his army in the lurch. The author recalls a famous inci- dent in the life of Frederick the Great, the ancestor about whom Wilhelm was always boasting. Frederick had sustained a severe defeat at Hoch- kirch. He was discussing it with his friend, Catt: Said Frederick: "My friend, I am a poor, defeated man. That is the worst possible misfortune that could have come to me. That was a sur- prise, a blow that we must make good. My troops fought with the courage of heroes and, truly, I have also not spared myself." Catt: "Your majesty exposed him- self too much." Frederick: "The danger was too great for me not to takg my share in it. I had to stake my very life." Then Frederick showed Catt a lit- tle gold box, saying it contained all that was necessary to end his trag- edy. Catt counted 18 opium pills. Frederick: "If a new misfortune hits me, I shall certainly not survive the break-up and destruction cf my fatherland." The author, with adds: "When Wilhelm on November 10, 1918, arrived in the afternoon in Amerongen, Holland, his first word to his host, Count Bentinck, was:— "W1 at do you say to this affair? Well, prepare for me now a genuine Eng- lish afternoon tea." The misfortunes 'of Germany, brought about by the Kaiser and his clique, the author says should have made a real royal gentleman share those misfortunes, the poverty, the want, the suffering. "Instead of this," says the writer, a big chateau with a park is purchas- ed, a comic opera court is constituted, and a second and younger wire is chosen. No, Kaiser, let's say it straight, through you and for you over a million of the best men in Germany fell. You have no more the right to happiness and joy." The exile's would-be pompous cele- bration last year of his 70th birth- day is made light of. Attention is called to the fact that only four for- mer reigning princes of Germany put in an appearance: the former King of Saxony, the former Dukes of Hes- se and Mecklenburg -Schwerin and the ex -Duke of Brunswick, who is a Bon- in -law of the former Kaiser. ' The list of those who stayed away is far more significant, including the Crown Prince of Bavaria, the Grand Duke Albrecht, of Mecklenburg, Prince Max of Balden (now dead), the Duke of Anhalt, and a score of other former reigning princes. Taking up the Kaiser's family, the writer says it is remarkable that a man who tried to be active and busy in so many ways, never made a ser- ious attempt to rear his own sons. They were left largely to tutors and governors and even his own personal wishes were transmitted through a third hand. The former crown prince, he says, not only criticized, but disliked his father. In many ways he saw things more clearly than the ruler. It Was he who told him the truth about Har - den's exposes of court scandals. It was he who, during the close of the war, wrote sharply to Wilhelm: "Even the long suffering of a brave, patient folk like the German people has its limits." But the book has small patience for any of the ex-kaiser's sons. Of the former crown prince, it says that here is a man, wed over. 25 years, father of grosvn sons, who flaunts his flirts and ernouts to the world, so thatev- en convinced monarchists feel them- selves offended. None of the ex -Kais- er's sons has consistently sought to do any work since the war. They live the life of drones in a counter where everybody should 'work to upbuild the shattered structure of Germany.. Ile 'contrasts their conduct.,with that of rrnee Ernst.'of.

The financier who backed him bought a paper after peace had been declared and made Wallace its editor at a salary of $7,500 a year and a share of the profits. Wallace made $60,000 speculating in the market and lost $100,000 in three hours. When he left South Africa, he had $400 and arrived in London with •75 cents. Northcliffe then erliegen' him as a special reporter and sent him on a trip around the world. He scored one against his rivals with the news of a verdict in an important case through having noticed that a jury that con- victs a murderer never looks at a prisoner. 'H"e discovered that t h e language of expression and gesture is universal. Resource, invention, know- ledge, an eye for copy and character are the secrets of his amazing out- put. He starts with the denouement and works backward and finds the job of getting a story into words compar- atively easy. His play of "The Ring- er" made him. He wrote it in three days and suddenly everyone wanted "Ringer" plays, and Wallace was the only man who could satisfy the de- mand. He had been selling serials for $1,000. After the boom started a great newspaper paid him $50,000 for the first serial rights in a thriller and spent $250,000 advertising it. He drinks oceans of tea. His passion is horse racing, in which he loses a great deal of money. He is absolute- ly unspoiled by success, quixotically generous and says money does not matter, if you have good health and those whom you love are well. He finds short stories easy and writes articles in 20 minutes. GERMANY EXPOSES THE RUN- AWAY KAISER The German Republic has endured now for over ten years, with German monarchist crown on the one hand and the Communist gang on the other seeking to bring it down. The Nationalists, of course, hope to restore some sort of monarchy, with all of its old rotten privileges for the Junker crowd. The Communists dream of a nice heaven for themselves and their pals. But so far, the republic has over- come both attempted monarchist and Communist "putsches." But the re- publicans have gone farther than that. Arms in hand, they have fought armed armies. Pen in hand, they have with books and pamphlets re- plied to all printed attacks on the new German Reich. In their fight on the Junker crowd, the republicans have mainly concen- trated the fire of their books upon the head of the runaway Kaiser, and have left hardly a shred of reputation to the one-time autocrate. The great publishing house 'of -Carl Reissner, of Dresden, has just issued one of the bitterest of all these works under the title of "Wilhelm Second and Hermine." Its author has preferred to remain anonymous. But his book has already achieved large circula- tion in Germany and has stirred up a regular hornet's nest. The author plays in all keys on the oft -repeated stories about the kaiser leis unwillingness to take honest advice, his hedging himself about with a wall of men who told him only flattering things, his indecision scud cowardice in the last critical hours of the war, his greed for money, his brutality, his cheap "romance" with Hermine, whom he married a very short time after the death of his old empress. The writer asks: • "Was Wilhelm Second always roy- al, 'a gentleman translated into a king,' as Bismark said of his grand- father. With fear in their hearts, the monarchists 'ask the question. The answer is never—never in small things, and never in great. He only played the role of a kaiser. He never possessed the tact of a king. Then he gives a few examples of the kind of thing this one-time mas- ter of Germany thought gentlemanly and funny. The time is a hot summer's after- noon some years before the war. On the garden terrace of the New Pal- ace at Potsdam tea is being served. Mtn Lame Horses!

He Bays the only one -in the whole royal outfit belonging to the former kaiser's house who is worthy of any respect is the ex -crown Princess Ce- cilia. As an examle of her spirit he says a great woman's organization sent her •a message of sympathy. She replied proudly: "I need no pity. I have the finest task that can come to a German wo- man—to rear my sons to be good German citizens." Constant fun is made in the book of the so-called romance of Wilhelm and Hermine. It tells of how insig- nificant in rank was the princely house of Reuss from which she sprang and intimates that she set her cap in most 'business -Pike• fashion for the exiled ruler. While the Empress Au- gusta never had much influence with Wilhelm, the new snouse has him well under her yoke, Nobody whom she dislikes or whose influence upon the ex -Kaiser she fears is allowed to go to Doorn. Only those are tolerated who call her kaiserin and majesty. He says she truly wants to see her husband back to the throne so that she can be a real kaiserin. Then with savagery the -writer asks: "Is she a lady translated into a queen?" .He replies by asking what Prussian queen or German empress would have told the innermost secrets of her woo- ing and married life for American dollars and English pounds sterling the way Hermine did. And in this money -chasing game, he says, the ex - Kaiser is not one whit behind. It was up to him to be silent. But in- stead of that for "money he wrote. books and special articles. He even sold his picture to the journals for a a special price. And this, despite the fact that he is the richest German its the world to -day, having saved from the wreck of his country a huge for-. tune of $102,000,000. And this is only through the gen- erosity of the German people them- selves, for it was the Reichstag which voted that their deposed princes might retain their royal possessions. The richest German, thus, richer by far than even the war-time•and post- war millionaires, is the Kaiser, wine ran away and left his people to shift for themselves, amid the ruins of his own fallen monarchy.
