Come, let us try to solve the greatest of all problems, "What shalt it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?" Satan comes to a. man who in all probability will not live over five or teit or perhaps twenty years, and he says: "bfy friend, you give me a mortgage on your eternal soul, to be foreelosed at your death, and 3 will give you a life interest in the world. I will give you more food then you can eat, .ntore clothing than you can wear, more houses than you can live in, more Money than you can spend, and at your earthly demise I Will not care for your money or your stocks, but I will only denaand and take your immortal soul." Come now. let us reason together. Are you, an inunortal man, with a soul which shall live on through the com- ing ages, with a soul that shall stand by- the cradle of -unborn mil- lenniums, with a Soul:that shall yet witness this earth gasp and die of old age, to enter iato such a con- tract? Read the simple statement of the proposed agreement. Ask yourself this momentous: question: "What shall it profit a Man if he Shall . gain the whole world and lose his own soul?" and exercise the common sense Gal has"given you.

Corning Jus missioa to the gentiles. 48. Aod when the gentiles heard grow up through the common. Could happiness demand any greater op- this they were glad and glorified the portunity to exist than these op- word of ,the Lord, and as many as portunities which are given by nee were ordained to eternal life be- te ell his children whoeobey him ? I would that we all might go back more contented to our everyday duties of life, no matter what these duties may be,: Whether they are in the store, the office, the pelpit, the parlor, the nursery or the kitchen it matters not. I would that we would all go the more cheerfully, because the harder our lot in life the nearer these troubles can bring us to God. When wo are -friendless and poor and helpless, then God Is, al- ways ready to pour out the measure- less wealth of his affections upon us, his suffering children. A NOTED LONDON pnriacirrat was delivering his sermon in an open neld. Upon the.:outskirts of the audience there halted the car- riage of a famous family. Lady Anne Erskine (2 or that was the name of the occupant) became an absorbed Hotelier. Suddenly the minister turn- ed and, facing thie aristocratic beau - Ly, began to sell her soul, entail:Mei' she was On tho auction block ,and he Was the auctioneer.

"No," glory of themhave vanished hae lieved. The gentiles gave heed to the message, and by receiving the word of the Lord they glorifiedit and were ima.de glad In Him whom they thus received. In this ago not all are given to Chritt, but all who are given shall come, and whosever will may come, with the assurance that none who come will be east out (John via 37; Rev. Jodi, 17). This is the time of salvation for the elect church, after which shall ,come the salvation of all Israel and then of all nations. 49. And the word of the Lord was ptublished .throughout all the region. This is the -work and the privilege of every redeemed oile, fOr it is written, "Let him that heareth say come." Arid if we have received the gospel for ourselves it is not for ourselves only, but we have been in- trusted with the message that others through us may hear it also, arid to all who have not yet heard we are debtors arid 'should say, "As much as in me is I am ready to gi've them the gospel" Rev. xii, 17; I Thess. ii, 4; Rom. i, 14. 15). 50. But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable Women and the chief men of the city and raised persecution against Paul and par- nabas and expelled -them out of their coasts. Was it for this the Spirit sent them forth ? Did 1 -le know that they would be taus rejected and ill treat- ed ? Yes, perfectly did Ile know it all, and even our Lord Himself told them before Ile died that they would be put out of the synagogues and killed for His sake, and they inuet not be offended nor afraid (John ,vi, 1, 2; Matt. x, 28). 51.

THE ROYAL PINCER -GLASS. It is said to bo.a point of etiquette that when a xnember of the Royal family dines only the :Royal guest itt supplied with a finger -bowl. The ori- gin of this custom is perhaps gener- ally known, and is both curious and interesting. In the early days of the present dynasty it was a matter of doubt who was loyal, and, when. the toast of "The King" was given all the Jacoryites, as a, matter of con- science, secretly passed their glasses over any water that happened to be near --generally the finger -bowl. This action signified that the person so doing drank his toast to "the King over the witter"---the exiled, Stuart. When title became known the court made a decree that; no water was to be Within reach of any of the guests, and Singularly enough this rule holds still to -day, 4 - TILE WDUND8. OF A PIUEND.
