In the same discourse of which
the above quotation is the con-
clusion, Jesus had denounced
the most honored orders of the
Jews half score of times as
hypocrites, blind leaders, whited
sepulchers, etc, for which they
killed him soon after. Had the
temporary editor Of the Citizen
been on hand, he would no doubt
have said it was wrong for any
man to expose the evil conditions
of the great city, and when Jesus
gave the signs by which the
christians should know when to
leave the town, he would have
said it was wrong to publish
scurrilous articles, and he would
have declared it was one of the
most prosperous an moral towns
in the whole country, and, no
doubt, he would have been one Of
the crowd that cried, Cruelty
him, cruelty him. He holds up
our sins to the public gaze" Had
the city of Jerusalem listened to

Day after tomorrow Margaret could
go cheerfully back to her proofread-
ing. In the meantime this wretched
holiday obtruded its grewsome pros
pect of loneliness.
o, well, she would make the best Of
It. Tomorrow morning she would
spend reading her beloved Stevenson;
in the afternoon the matinee, and
after that dinner at the cafe down the
avenue, where the linen was snowy
and the coffee had delicious flavor,
She would keep up sort of forced
cheerfulness and forget she was alone.
She angrily brushed tear from her
cheek.
AS she did so the bell in the hall
whirred noisily. She went to the
speaking tube and called dispirited
Hello
"HellO,' came the cheerful response
"That you, Margaret? Merry Christ
mas! Kindly unlock the door and III
ascend"
She opened the hall door and waited
on the landing. Presently from the
semi darkness of the place Jack Carl
ton appeared, putting prodigiously.
'Hello!" he puffed Long flights,

an elevator to move me up

Don't be silly she said weakly.
Look here he said, "by your own

you a Christmas present that will rid
you of them forever-that is, if you'll
