When Herod, following in the foot- steps of his grandfather would afflict the church he selected James as his victim. Stephen was the first Chris- tian martyr and James the first of the Apostles to suffer efor his faith. We know nothing of the good works and brave deeds and powerful sermons he devoted to his Master's cause. We are told simply of the death by which he glorified God.

For instance, John and Hugh Huntington were two Englishmen, brothers, in the tar and gra roof- ingvel business in Cleveland. Rocke- feller employed 'them to put gravel roofs on a large number of oil tanks, and after the work was done, having more stock than cash, offer ed the stock. Eventually they decided to take part stock and part cash. The brothers did not agree with each other as to who would take the stock, but eventually it was wished on John. He permitted his stock to accumulate, taking his share of in- crease whenever there was a stock dividend, until at his death he left a fortune of a good many millions. The other brother remained in the died in and 'ness buss gravel roofing _ moderate circumstances. Similar occurrences were frequent as Rocke- feller and his associates continued to buy up the smaller refineries. Some refiners would insist on cash. Others would accept stock. Those who took a few shares of stock usually became may sit, one on Thy right hand and one on Thy left hand in Thy king- dom"—how that prayer would be an- swered, and yet answered it was. To the one son, James, was granted the one post of honor. He was made to sit on the Master's right hand, for he was the first of the apostles called to enter into Paradise through a bap- tism of blood. While to the other son, St. John, was granted the other post of honor, for he was left the Longest upon earth to guide, direct, and sustain the church by his inspir- ed wisdom, large experience, and apostolic authority. Herod, seeing that the Jewish auth- orities were pleased with his zeal, de - `ermined to proceed farther in the work of repression. He arrested an- other prominent leader, St. Peter and cast him into prison. Verses 5-17.—A Divine Deliverance. Once before Peter had been con- signed to prison and had been mir- aculously delivered. He was there- fore more closely guarded, being 'r"ated after the Roman fashion. He as delivered to sixteen men, four •vetching at a time. Over against his strict guard the church set con - ^`ant. prayer. Their Master had told `hem to pray, and had promised to ^nswer sincere prayer, so they gath- ered themselves into a continuous tr ayer service. The crisis was a terrible one. The mother church was hreatened with extinction; the life the greatest leader was at stake. Pete- had many a long year of • +ive 1•ah"r before him so it was fit - 'e n the+ God should send forth a • -°n'y messenger to rescue His `prvent and to prove to the unbe- lieving Jew, to the haughty Herod, and to the frightened but praying disciples, that He exercises special care over His church and people. "When Herod was about to bring him forth, the same night Peter was sleep- ing between two soldiers, bound with two chains; and guards before the door kept the prison." Peter was sleeping between two soldiers; one chained to each arm, so that he could not move without awaking them. By a sudden mysterious interposition, Peter was snatched from his perse- cutors. He himself must have relat- ed the circumstances to St. Luke, for he relates the inmost thoughts that possessed Peter's mind: "He wist not that it was true which was done by the angel, but thought he saw a vision." Then again after the angel departed from him we are given the thoughts which passed through his mind when he found himself once again a free man; "when Peter was come to himself, he said, now I know of a truth that the Lord hath sent forth his angel, and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews." When he came to fully realize where he was he set out for the home at which he had been a frequent guest and, on arriving, he knocked at the door of the gate. A young woman answered the knock but, "when she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for joy, but ran in and told them Peter stood before the gate." They were gathered praying for Peter's release, but so little did they expect an answer to their prayers that, when the answer did come, and in the precise way that they were asking for it, they were astonished, and told the maid -servant, who bore the tidings, "Thou art mad." We pray as the primitive church did, and that constantly; but is it not with us as with them? We pray in- deed, but we do not expect our pray- ers to be answered, and therefore we do not profit by them as we might. After being admitted Peter related the circumstances of his deliverance and told them to carry the news of it to James, the Lord's brother, and to the other Christians not there pre- sent. He himself :withdraw for a time to safe retirement; while Herod was left to wreak his impotent ven- geance on the unconscious quaternion of soldiers. --(Condensed from Coma mentar3r). drt„ t v.� s6 lover •v� v 'courteo also assure Wit. ;an service Ho xio robed for withdrawals and chequing privileges are allowed.

MANY MILLIONAIRES MADE BY ROCKEFELLER In a series of stories about John D. Rockefeller, which Fred C. Kelly is writing for the New York World he tells several incidents of men becom- ing millienaires because through chance they happened to become as- sociated with Standard Oil in its early days. At the time of the Civil War and after it Rockefeller was going about getting his company establish- ed, and buying out smaller oil pro- ducers when he could. raise the money. At the same time he. was carrying on a grain business with George W. Gardner, who died recently. The two men were doing pretty well, but John thought of nothing but business, whereas Gardner now and then showed his sporting blood. As a youngster, he had sailed before the mast and had a fondness for the water. He had an ambition to own a yacht, and therefore was keenly interested when one day a friend came to him and showed him an advertisement of a yacht for sale. She had cost $20,000, but could be bought for $3,000. Eventually she was bought for $2,000 by Gardner and three friends, and they enjoyed their sails in her. One day as Gard- ner was leaving the office he noticed his partner poring over accounts and thought that he looked fagged. So he suggested that Johns ton in the party for a sail. His suggestion was one which produced the only outburst of wrath he ever saw in his long association with Rockefeller. He shouted: "George Gardner— you're the most extravagant young man I ever knew! The idea of a young man like you just getting a start in life owning an interest in a yacht; you're injuring your credit in the banks—yours and mine. Everybody will be looting upon you as a spendthrift, and" the first thing you know you'll be wrecking our 'business here. No, I won't go on your yacht. I don't ev- er want to see it'." "John," Gardner observed quietly, "I see that there are certain things on which you and I probably never will agree. I think you like money better than anything • else in the world, and I do not. I like to have a little fun along with business as I go through life!' Gardner did not come to poverty despite Rockefel- ler's opinion of him, and one of his greatest pleasures was yachting. He died recently when past eighty, and he and Rockefeller kept up an affec- tionate intercourse until the end. It was only a few months after this quarrel that Rockefeller, being refus- ed a lean from an Ohio bank, remark- ed to the officer who refused him: "Some day I'll be the richest inan in the world," were not numerous. Miss Nichols does not believe ,that the play is any better now since it has earned millions for her and has proved the most popular play ever written in the United States. From the first she had the idea that the plot of the play was a "sure fire" winner. Recently she said , with be- coming arrogance, "You can he lways count on the public liking nat- ural and simple things of life. They don't want to be talked down to. an coos spending cannot keep they don't give a snap about being j geous I don't think there is suchfrom being a millionaire.

For the past two or three years there have been half a dozen companies giv- ing this play, each of them adding its weekly hundred of thousands to the bank "Account of Anne Nichols. The New York company earns a weekly average of twelve thousand dollars. The play has made its author a millionaire. It has proved one of the greatest money makers in theatrical history, and that is in comparison with plays that have been popular for a generation or more. Miss Nichols is said to be worth five million dollars. Less than four years ago she was broke, She was in debt, and if "Abie's Irish Rose" had net proved a hit she would have been bankrupt, and a bankrupt without much prospect of success. The play has not yet gone into the movies because Miss Nichols says the movie rights are worth a million dollars. She put a value of $100,000 on her play "Just Married" and remarked that her name on a play was worth that, no matter what the play was like. From an appreciative sketch of her career in the New York World by Alice Rohe we learn that Miss Nichols, who has been seen in the flesh by many Toronto people, is not yet thirty-five years old and is good looking. She was born in Georgia, her mother being a Pennsylvanian, and her father a man named Nicholas, in whose veins ran Rus- sian blood. When she was still a young girl family misfortunes forced her to work, and she became a laundress to thrust poverty aside from her mother and sisters. Later on she became fired with the ambi- tion td go on the stage and suffered poverty and a hundred rebuffs with a good heart, and an all -conquering de- termination to succeed. "Thank goodness I've never been afssid," she said. "Even when I didn't have a cent in the days of job hunting I learned that if you haven't hadexperience you can't get a job."
