ignorance of his bank account, says the

Loyalty is characteristic that we
admire. Loyalty to the country of our
nativity. to our city, to our families
and to our friends, is the evidence Of
strength Of character and unwavering
allegiance. The same characteristic in
our Christian life makes us of more
value to the cause of Christ and fills
our own hearts with the realization of
our privilege in being allied with such
a kingdom. Loyalty to the vows we
make In our constant endeavor to live
up to them, loyalty to the life we pro-
fess to live, In our dying unto sin and
living unto Righteousness, loyalty to
the church, with which we are associat-
ed in our efforts to strengthen and
maintain it, loyalty to Christ as our
Master. as well as our Saviour, that
His will may be ours, is not only
duty, but privilege of the Christian
Presbyterian.

A good story comes from Irvine way.
which may be taken with pinch of salt.
On one of the vessels in the harbor there
is young son OF Erin who acts as cook,
etc. The crew is not large and evidently
of frugal turn of mind. and in conse-
quence the cooks duties never varied
since his arrival month ago from the
work of cleaning and cutting herring, at
least so the story goes. The skipper.
when up town. decided on change and
purchased a quantity Of sausages. These
be handed over 10 the cook 10 prepare.
and the crew waited with impatience on
the dinner. AT last il was ready, and the
boy. proud Of his efforts. served up the
dainties. The captain looked for the sau-
sages. bat the pan contained only a mass
of skins. The boy, following his usual
custom. had treated them the same as
herrings. Evening Times.

Come unto me-" O hear the words of Jesus,

Words that are full of peace and consolation;
Go claim the promise while the Lord is near.
Believe His words and seek, and you shall find
Him.
Walk where He leads you, for His way is best !;
II you are weary of life's heavy burden,
Go to your Saviour, He will give you rect.
ASK and receive the fullness Of His mercy,
lie now is waiting, pardon to hestow.
Come as you are believing He can save you
He'll wash your garments whittier than the
snow.
Deny yourself and take the cross and follow,
Though rough the path and thorny all the
way;
II you will trust Him leaning on His promise,
He'll surely bring you to the realms Of day.

may be more systematically distributed.

Portable circumstances should add to her list Of

only afford articles of clothing, in some cases

who can never afford pretty collar or necktie
for herself, bulb or plant 10 the invalid who
cannot enjoy Gods sunshine, out VINO would be
given many happy hours In watching the
growth, budding and blossoming of plant.
IL each society or order in every town should
devote a small sum to general benevolence and
send trusty committee upon the blessed err
rand of good will. no shGt-in or destitute one

Topic For the eek BEGINNING Dec.

Torrc.-Imperialism Of Christianity. ii,
a, IS.
Imperialism is 'the spirit of empire"
An empire consists of a number of
kingdoms united together under one
government and one ruler. usually call
ed an emperor. The confederation of
the German states is called the German
empire and the title of the ruler en-
peror. Though the British ruler is
called a king-the king of England
yet the government of Great Britain,
including. as ii does, many kingdoms
and states under it, is justly called the
British empire. In these senses Chris
tianity has 1.-THE spirit CT empire" and
is an Imperialism Though the word Is
not a happy onel in character. The
kingdom of God in this world embraces
all peoples, nations, kindreds and
tongues and is ruled by God Himself.
Gods kingdom is to be an everlast-
ng kingdom. "And in the days of these
kings shall the God of heaven set up
kingdom which shall never be destroy
ed" The kingdoms of this world are
temporal. They rise and fall. They
wax and wane. Egypt, Babylon,
Greece, Rome, are names of empires
that, though once they were great and
powerful, have long since lost their
glory and their power. Citizenship in
them was once a coveted privilege but
today it has no attractions. Not so
I,s,A h. LII - 81
Gods kingdom is eternal in character,
and the value of citizenship in it will
only increase with the passing of the
ages.
Gods kingdom is to be a worldwide
kingdom. 1t is to overcome all opposi-
ton to it by winning or destroying all
nations opposed to it. 1t "shan break
In pieces and consume all these king
doms," and its head "shall have do
minion from sea to sea and from the
river to the ends of the earth" Citi-
zenship In so called worldwide empires
has always been greatly priced and es-
teemed. Roman citizenship was once
a most coveted prize, yet the Roman
empire included but small portion of
the earth, and the privileges it offered
to its citizens were as nothing COM
pared to those offered to the citizens
Of the kingdom of God. The desirable
tty, therefore, of belonging to Gods
kingdom should be apparent to all, and
we should allow nothing to deprive US
OF heavenly citizenship.
Citizenship In the kingdom of God is
free and accessible to all "Wbosoeyer
win may come and enroll himself
under the banner of the cross and take
the oath of allegiance to heavens King
and become subject of His kingdom.
Enrolment in Gods kingdom is volun-
tary. God forces none to come under
His rule. His soldiers are volunteers
By the gracious teachings of His word
and influences of His spirit He strives
to show us what is His will and for
our good in the matter, but the choice
is left with US. None should hesitate
In this choice. BY faith in Christ and
conservation of our lives to God we
should take our place in His eternal
and universal kingdom.
