the apostles to do? Five thhgs-preach the
kingdom Of heaven; heal the sick cleanse the

were to do this az they went, become itnerant

the same theme as that Of John the Baptist and
OF Jesus (Matt. Iii: /; iy: ID, the ushering in
Of the new dispensation, and the proper prepar-
alton for it Mark vi: 12). In unfolding their

ability alone. There was a demand for an in
crease of workers. He knew that men are to
be saved through the instrumcntality of men.
But what kind OF men and how shall they be
qualified? His method was the one that ought
to be followed. He asked the disciples to pray
over the subject. He would have the prompt
ing and guidance of the Holy Spirit for men
who go out. The missionaries must go in the
spirit. prompted by Divine impulse (John 1;
o. If ever men might go without prayer that
was the time for Jesus, the head Of the church,
was there, and His word was all that was need

have assembled to unite their petitions, or,
what is more likely they separated each finding

ANOTHER WATER STRIKE.

For many weeks the Electric Light
company has been patiently drilling for
water beside it's plant on Dundaff
street. Yesterday flow filling an
eight-inch pipe was raised by pump
and now the company is independent
Of the Consolidated monopoly. The
water is said to be of excellent quality.
With the loss of such large consumers
as the light company, Bendrick and the
silk mill, together with the influence
of the Reynshanhurst project, the
Consolidated is gradually losing ground.
