CHRISTIAN ENDEAvoR.
3opie For the Week Beginning Feb.

Eepie For the Week DeSinnine Feb.
]-Comment by Rev. 3. H. Doyle.
1osic.-Things that endwe.-Math. vii, 2l-22
SChristian Endeavor day)
Christian Endeavor is now 10 years
- ago 1t has stood the test of almost
. quarter of a century and is still
STRONG and powerful and possesses the
characteristics OF things that endure.
According to the lessons of the topical
reference, Christ's closing words in
the sermon Gu the mount. the things
that endure possess several character
istics: l. They must be divinely inspir-
ed, being the VIII of the Father" =.
They must be founded upon divine
principles. upon the rock Christ Jesus.
3. Their purpose must be divine. They
must be done unto Christ.
Nineteen years of Christian Endeav-
or have proved that it possesses these
characteristics Of endurance.
l. Christian Endeavor was divinely
Inspired. 1t Is the will of the Father.
The proyidential factor in Christian
Endeaver vas long emphasized, and It
should not be forgotten today. Its
rapid growth, its wonderful adapta-
bility to all denominations and to all
countries. it's marvellous work, all
pointed to the fact that it was a move
ment inspired of God. This is still our
belief. And. If divinely inspired. we
may believe that 1t will endure, be-
cause it was inspired to meet a need
that is ever present In the church.
2. Christian Endeavor is founded
upon Divine principles. The Chris
tan Endeavor constitution, the pledge,
the conservation service, the commit
tee work, are directly founded upon
the word of God, which is not to pass
away. 1t possesses this essential of
endurance. and that 1t may endure
these principles need more than ever
today to be emphasized. The pledge,
the conservation service, the commit
tee work. all need to be revived. A
new generation Of young people has
arisen who need to know about them,
and many who once knew seem to
have forgotten. Let us have a revival
fundamental principles, which are
founded upon Gods eternal word, and
We viii add much to the endurance Of
the movement.
9. The work of Christian Endeavor Is
divinely purposed. 1t is ''for Christ
and the church." Christ may say to
Christian Endeavorers, Eye did 1t unto
Me-" and therefore not only will the
movement endure, but the work that 1t
does will find an eternal endurance In
the life beyond this world. May this
anniversary day become an inspiration
to Endeavorers everywhere, and may
Christian Endeavor receive q baptism
from on high that will give 1t new con-
Adence In and new zeal for the future.

Dear NJ. B. Friends:

Dear NJ. B. Friends:
The ''Song Of Home" sent by Azeila has
reminded me of the difference there is In
the way homes are remembered by those
who 60 out from them. Some children
send a letter home every week and the
parents though growing old and feeble
fail not to send an answering response.
Then there are others who perhaps write
once or twice year, and sometimes the
time grows longer and the home ties grow
weaker rather than stronger, until 1t is 3
rare thing to receive a letter from the
absent son or daughter.
1t is mutual benefit to both parents
and children to exchange letters fire.
quently. The son and daughter may have
been absent from the old home many years
and may be crowned with the frosts OF
age, but to father and mother they are still
the boy and girl who played about the
door and grew to manhood and woman
hood under their care. The boy and girl
viii not go very far astray who never
neglect that weekly home letter. And the
parents hearts are made glad and life has
larger interests because the children re-
member them and send them regularly
news from the outside world.

A DETERMINED WOMAN

some from a Chicago traveller.
I had been greatly afflicted with
sudden attacks of cramps, nausea
and vomiting. Tried all sorts OF
remedies and physicians, but obtained
only temporary relief. As soon as
began to use the new food the cramps
disappeared and have never reap

been recommending GrapeNuts to
his customers and has built up very
large trade in the food. He sells
them by the case to most of the lead

prescribe Grape-Nuts generally.
There is some satisfaction in using a
really scientifically prepared food"
