patience, self-denial, obedience to author.
ity, are great virtues, and, given man
at the start--and what can you expect
in any circumstances without your man
given man, the soldiers life is EN-
inently fitted to call them forth. The
most belieyeng men Jesus found in all
Israel was the Roman soldiers. Peters
first Gentle convert, was a Roman SOL
der; men have no doubt, far better
and for more use in that Jewish land
than its own priests and rulers. If ii bad
not been for one of them, Paul would
have been torn in pieces by the fanatical
populace of Jerusalem. Christ knew
and told them that the best thing they
could do was to pay tribute to-Cm8ar.
He who desires the soldiers office in this
day Of war, desires a good work; only
remember that the best may be perver-
ted into the worst.-REv. RUFUs Ellis.
