Keeping Friends.

Friendship is worth taking trouble
about 1t is one of the things about
which We should remember the Apostles
command, Hold fast that which is
good" Thoreau said: The only danger
IN friendship is that it will end" Cor
respondence and conversation and social
courtesies are the ways in which we
throw guards around our friendships
lest they end. A man who loses a friend
for want Of a letter now and then is
like a man who loses his money for lack
of a pocketbook. He is losing a very
precious thing for lack of very little
expense and trouble. How carefully
Jesus selected the close circle of his
friends, and how watchfully he guarded
their mutual friendship after he had
selected them The friend who sticketh
closer than a brother is always one who
has taken some trouble in the matter OF
his friendships. Let us be careful that
we do not go through life with holes in
our pockets through which our friend
ships Slips. S. Times.

pipe organ in a cathedral
When the last note ebbed tears we're

D UT perhaps, like Caleb and Joshua

not because of your own failure, or un-
belief, or rebellion. You are the inno-
cent sufferer for others wrong doing.
Does it not seem hard that theA1 shree
great men of faith and obedience should
have had to suffer so? 1t max seem
hard and unreasonable to you to have to
suffer because of what others have done.
but Moses and Caleb and Joshua were
needed in the wilderness, and so, too,
there may be a mission for you in the
wilderness. There are two reasons, l
believe. why these three men were glad
10 go back into the wilderness: First
of all, because the Lord led the-Way and
was to be found only in that place, and
second, because it was the place where
they were needed most. Think you that
these three faithful servants of God
were idle during those forty years of
wandering? They had to encourage and
help and strengthen the people all about
them who had not SO much faith as they
had, who had not the patience which
they possessed, who had not the cour-
age and perseverance with which they
were endowed. And you, dear Christian,
may be in the wilderness with weaker
Christians all about you with a similar
mission to perform. The plan OF God
is larger than any two or three Chris
