my interest is aroused. l am always
hearing about this-shall l call it fab
ulous ?-sort of mine, which at present
makes no figure among the big mines,
but which looks as if, when developed
1t might take place with the very
greatest.
Mines of the Future.
And there really are such mines
perhaps six or eight at present known
over the whole wide area of the world.
There are three of these about which
know, and their undoubted great pos
sibilities have fired my Imagination.
These are the Dos Estrellas in Mexico,
the Santo Domingo, belonging to the
Inca Company in Paris, and the Red
jang Lebong in Sumatra. The elements
of greatness belong, top although on
more modest basis, to the Tasmania
mine in the island of that name ana
to the Oriental mine in Corea. These
names are hardly known to the vulgar
throng and the mines do not rank with
the great producers, but the Dos Es-
trellas is valued by it's Mexican owners
at millions of pounds The Santo Do
mingo was last year producing SOW
ounces a month with FIVE stamps; the
Redjang has an ore chute 1000 feet
long, II feet thick, worth e6 a ton;
the Tasmania, now wrestling with an
immense flow of water has at loo
feet a lode of almost similar value and
size. md the Oriental has 200 stamps
at work i'm the Corean forests and over
million tons of ore blocked out.

figure standing in the doorway.
1t was not a mans, it was that of
Laura Treherne 's-Mary Burns.
Not one of them around her noticed
any difference in her smile or guessed
why she dismissed them SO easily and
naturally. She did not even march
straight for the door, but making a
circuit, gradually reached the hall.
Pale and calm and self-possessed as
usual, the strange maid was waiting
for her.

voice was scarcely above a whisper.
"Has-has he Gomez"

Lady Bell almost snatched it from

"You did right" she said.

the envelope, not noting that it opened
easily as if it had been tempered with,

Lady Bell looked at the few lines

and she started.

Lady Bell called to her.

reply, conservation of the body, soul
and spirit. The Lord demands the
whole life of the being. He not only
wants us to trust Him to save our
spirits in heaven, but he wants us to
use our mental and physical powers
for him here and now. The church
needs minds to think as we'll as hands

most of the thinking as we'll as most

should be a personal conservation

of God. We should regard ourselves
as stewards of the Lords substance
and faithfully render portion of the

all the world to proclaim good tidings
to others. We should therefore sup

WHAT CHRIST INTENDED IN
HAVING A CHURCH IN
THE WORLD.
Rev. j. r. Lamb Discussed on That
Subject at mberand Presby-
terrain Church Sunday.

At the First Cumberland Presbyter-
the pastor, occupied the pulpit and
delivered an able address. His theme
was, What Did Jesus Intend That
the Church Should Do in the World ."
Il am not sure that people gener-
in having a church in the world.
feel quite sure that if His purpose, as
set forth in the new testament, were
generally understood and obeyed, the
progress of the church would be much
more rapid and the whole world
would soon be evangelical. To get
a clear idea of His purpose we need
but refer to a few familiar scrip
lures. In the sermon on the mount
He said: We are the light Of the
world 'Ye are the salt of the earth,
thus indicating that His people are to
disseminate the light of truth, and
and their presence was to be for the
purpose of saving from the corrup-
ton of sin. In the parable of the vine
and branches ONO. 16:1-S) he teaches
that his people are to be part of
himself, and. depending on him for
life, they are to produce fruit from
him and of him. In the parable of
the vineyard Matt. 21:33-43) he
teaches that the church is like a vine
expected to cultivate it and render a
return of fruits to the proprietor
Failing to render these fruits they
We're to be dispOssessed. In his teach
ings concerning the general judgment
Matt. 25:31-46) he clearly shows
that men shall be held accountable
for having failed to bear fruits of love.
mercy and righteousness and in the
great commission to his disciples he
commands them to preach the gospel.
tell the good news of his love, to all
mankind. From these and many 9TH
teachings, I think we can find what
the Saviour and Head of the church
intended that it should be in the
world. We can state this briefly in
four points, viz: Cd To contain to
maintain and to propagate spiritual
truth and life among men. CD That
its membership, to further these ends,
should live pure and bIameless lives
keeping themselves unspOtted from
Christ must live to help others and
not for themselves. Cd They are to
spread to gospel SO that all may have
an opportunity to hear it. These du-
ties, as | understand them, are in
separately connected with the Christ
ian life, and the performance of one
duty helps us in performing others,
while the neglect of any of them les
sens our power to do gooOd and fill
the Saviour's purpose in planting his
church in the world.
How may the church fulfill her
fOurfold mission as suggested? This
is an important question. for its solu-
ton has an important bearing on all
other questions affecting the welfare
Of men. Let us bear in mind how
ever that there is no royal road to sue
cess for the church except the road
made royal by loyalty to Christ. The
Saviour wrought his mission in hum
bic, helpful service to his fellow men
and we should bear in mind that the
servant is not better than his master
nor the disciple than his Lord There
