LESSON THOUGHTS.
When our Christian service seems to
lead us into great privations and self
sacrifice and hardships, it will make our
burdens light to remember that Jesus
suffered infinitely more for us, and that
he is able and willing to give us the same
strength for endurance that he had.
The hero of missions is hero of faith.
Heather lands in themselves offer very
little prospect of success; but in the face
OF heather opposition he goes ahead,
looking to God in faith for guidance and
success.
SELECTIONS.
dare not work my soul to save
That work my Lord has done;
But will work like any slave
For love OF Gods dear son.
Difficulties are no proof in themselves
that one is on the wrong road. Not
only hardships, but discouragements in
Christian work, have been the lot OF
many that were unquestionably answer
ing the call of duty. The lives of Carey
and Moffat and scores of other mission
airy pioneers are full of illustrations. 1t
is not to be thought strange, then, if like
surprises come into the life OF every
follower of Christ.
We cannot have the graces ofChristain
life without the means that 60 to the
m aking of those graces. We never shall
have faith that is strong il we can always
see every step ahead; it is of little use to
pray for patience, and then chafe under
each trial of patience; we never learn the
depth of love when our love has no occa
sion to reach out to those that do not
love us.
SUGGESTED HYMNS.
Conquering now and still to conquer.
Young men in Christ the Lord.
Speed away, speed away
Onward, Christian soldiers
Throw out the life line.
Am soldier of the CROSSE

have her face dis6gured by pimples or
any form of eruptive disease. 1t makes
her morbid and sensitive, and robs her
of social enjoyment. Disfguring erup-
tons are caused by impure blood, and
are entirely cured by the great blood

blood the poisonous impurities which
cause disease. 1t perfectly and perman-
emily cures scrofulous sores, eczema,

The status of the Coal Strike.

No change appears in the situation at
anthracite mines. Large operators are
making no concessions, and the offering
OF better terms by small producer was
accepted by employees, but the union re-
fused to allow any men to resume until
all did SO. Forces are being gradually
increased, but the output is insignificant
compared to the urgent demands. With
the approach of cold weather retailers
are able to secure fancy prices for such
small stocks as they still have on hand.
A little relief is looked for as imports
increase. 1t is a curious coincidence that
$4,000 miners in Scotland have accepted
a reduction of Ga per cent in wages

New Hampshire Republicans COmprO-
mise.
The New Hampshire republican state
convention held at Concord, Wednesday,
nominated Nahum J. Bachelor of An
dover, the head of the state grange, for
governor on platform which carries the
license question to the legislature
pledges the party to electric roads where
ever the people demand them; tavors
forest protection, life tenure for judges of
the supreme court, legitimate combina-
tion OF capital which will reduce the price
of necessities, but condemns those which
throttle competition by tyrannical
means; liberal pensions and indorses
President Roosevelt's administration.
The convention was the largest in the
history of the party, 778 OF the possible
80 delegates being present. The con-
test was wholly on the local option ques-
ton. The resolution adopted on this
issue is compromise and was drafted
by the leaders in conference. 1t was
strenuously opposed in the convention
by advocates of license, composed largely
of delegates from the cities and by the
prohibitionists, headed by ex.United
States Senator Henry W. Blair and by
State Senator Daniel c. Remick OF Little
ton. The license people offered substi-
tute plank committing the party to a
local option law. Mr.. Blair offered one
demanding the rigid enforcement of the
existing law, and Mr.. Remck third,
submitting local-option law to refer
endum of the legal voters in 1908. The
compromise men, under the leadership Of
Gen. Frank S. Streeter prevailed. D. w
Perkins of Manchester then withdrew
Gen. Gale, the license candidate for gov
ernor, with the statement that he could
not stand on the platform, and Mr.
Bachelors nomination was secured by
reclamation.
