The key to that subtle profit-and-
loss text that fell from Jesus lips on
this occasion is the double sense in
which the term life is used. Who
ever makes it his supreme concern to
conserve the profits of the natural
life shall be bankrupt spiritually; but
whose discounts the bodily life for
the soul shall enrich his immortallife.
And in the last ANALYSIS, the soul is
everything. Who can name its pur-
chase price?

were seen again, probably killed by
the paddle wheels. Thomas Dunn, an
expert swimmer, was hurled with such

for her, but she sank before he could
