On Friday night, October 10, the
beauty sleep of the good people Of our
little village, was disturbed by the cry
of fire" ringing out through the clear,
warm night. In few minutes q num-
Der of people in various stages OF negli-
gee, were hurrying toward the village
store, from the roof of which the red
angry flames were already bursting out.
The building was owned by Robert w.

Son, dealers in dry goods, groceries,
shoes and the thousand and one things
usually found in well stocked country
store. Here were kept the postoff1ce and

located in the basement. W. Whittle-
sey, boekkeeper for the firm, had ton.

was open during the evening. The fire
is supposed to have started there, as it
was raging furiously in this part OF the
building, while the remainder was COM

goods we're saved, but the building and
most of the goods were entirely destroy

fortune of keeping the fire confined to

This exclamation from the lips of Gid

are pleased to call the age of miracles
Indeed, at this very moment, II we are to
take literally the words of the passage;
Gideon was talking with an angel of the
Lord, with ono whom the historian con-
siders and tells US was heavenly mes
senger to his life; we should think that

doubt. The chapter says that this angel

on's father, and that thus the angel Of
the Lord appeared unto Gideon. And
yet this woeful plant from his lips;
"Where be all the miracles which our
fathers told US Off" Alas for Gideon
that his eyes were blinded; glorious
thing was it for Gideon, and would it be
for us all, when the eyes are opened, and
he saw and understood the wonderful
thing Of the Lords, which was right
with him when he was uttering his COM
plant. Now we do not know at all who
this messenger of Jehovah, that appear
ed unto Gideon might be; that he car
ried Jehovah's message was very clear
that Gideon did not at first recognize in
his presence anything wonderful or sup
ernatural Is also very clear, or he would
not have uttered suc;. complaint. In
deed, it might seem that this messenger
this angel of the Lord, came to Gideon as
well known friend, as common coun
seller of his life, from the simple way In
which his presence affected the man, ant
the unastonished manner in which hi
words were received. There was M
special wonder In this visitation evident
ly to Gideon; he saw no miracle in thu
visitor or the counsel, until it was al
past. Then he perceived 1t to be in truth
what II was, wonderful work, mira

back, discerned the wonderful presence

nothing wonderful. We cannot but
think then, as q passing lesson, thatre q
inspiration can discern for US, and for
this age, that thing to be miracle, a
woodworking of God, and thatp erson

darkened eyes, we think only common
things are happening, and only well

lesson there is in that, what.a word for

spoG III Tie IiIe, IOr all his LOucnlnHS are
for our healing. When we sit down
alone with our burden, or our discourage
ment. or our despair, when our heart is
troubled within US, then may The Lord
open our eyes to see that the angel of
his counsel is drawing near to US. In
the heaviest burdens, and in the most
trivial worries and troubles and labors,
In them all Gods wonderful counsel is
given to US. His angel stands at our
side to deliver us, and to send US on our
way, or to our duty.
In these new sayings of the Lord
Jesus which have just been unearthed at
Oxyrhynchus, place of the dwelling
of early Christians in Egypt, this is one
amongst them, and its word for US is
true. whether the sayings prove to be
genuine or otherwise; the word is this
"Jesus said raise the stone, there thou
shalt fiad me, cleave the wood there l
am" Whatever be the labor, In other
words, am not with theeP Have not l

again from the avery life of the Lord.
You will remember that bltterest day in
the life of Martin Luther, when abso-
lutely alone, with seemingly none to
help and none to deliver he went up be-
fore the emperor, and the prelates, and
the mobiles to answer for his faith-alone
and no man seemed to understand him,
or to dare to help him then it was that
God sent his angel in rough and peculiar
guise to speak the word of
strength and help unto him. As he
walked up 1.-THE aisle of the great diet
hall, George Of ..Frondsberg, q soldier of
the German wars touched his shoulder
and whispered to him "Little monk,
little monk thou hast before thee a
battle such as we whose trade Is war

and if thy cause be just and thy faith

fully like the word to Gideon was 1t not
God will be with thee, has not he sent
thee? And 80 has
THE WORD OF THE LORD LIKE MES.
| SAGE FOR EVERYONE OF Us,
no matter where we stand, nor how the
hour darkens and the burden wakes
sore upon US. 1t may be he will fad
some voice at this hour to speak it in
your ear this word of his consolation
if you need consolation, of strength and
inspiration if you have need or are ready
for such on ward headings. Have not
sent Thee? Whatever 1t Is into which
or through which you are laboring, the
Lord has sent thee, and his blessing will
go with thee, whether the belp of some
friend gives the word, or the heart with
in is it's own and only councillor, the
place wherein thou even now standesI
has its angel of the Lord beside you, its
word of Jehovah spoken to your soul
and for your guidance.

Ii does not have to be In startling ways
it may be in very ordinary and simple
fashion. and by very familiar friends OF
in common place duties, but God does
come to see US, TO cheer us, to inspire us,
as He did Gideon, even while Gideon
was grumbling about his absence. The
miracles are not all finished; there is
one most wonderful, for this very dsy,
and for your soul. it is the miracle
of Gods presence which Is over You, of
Gods word which speaks unto You.
