The One and Only Saviour.

God never duplicates his works. He
never overdoes. He never exceeds the
necessary and the sufficient. He never
repeats himself. There is only one
Isaiah, only one st. Paul, only one John
the Baptist. only one Cromwell. only
one Washington, only one Lincoln, and
there is only one Christ, only one risen
Christ. The world needs no more, and
as said before, God is the great econ
omist. he Is scrupulously exact and
lust in the use Of the eternal forces
The world needs only one Saviour, only
one Christ, and God has given us only
one Saviour, only one Christine riser
Lord, who was and is for evermore the
resurrection and the life.-Rev. DR.. .In

Gas


How many people, when
buying gas engines stop to
consider complications7Ther
are few. If they would only
investigate the different max
es before deciding on the pur-
chase. there would be fewer
repair shops over the land.
A spring here aud a gear
there, and loaded down with
q lot of inventions, most
people say, "That must be a
good engine. Well, they
buy it. In a little while, to
keep 1t going, they com.
mence to tinker, and the
more time and money spent
the more she gets out of
whack. Then they real
lie that it takes an expert
to do anything with 1t. Now
If they had only bought 4
simple engine. one that they
thought would not run be-
cause 1t did not have a lot of
fctures, they could have
avoided the expense and de-
lay.
Our advice to you Is to not
overlook the "Stoner" when
you are thinking of buying
an engine, as we can prove to
you that 1t Is the simplest en-
CINE built; and we feel salts
fed that 1t will give you but
very little trouble. Repair
shops all hate the "Stoner"
as 1t gives them but little
work.

child Of Mr.. P. l.. Mcpherson, 50

would sleep but two or three hours
the early part of the night, which

her half of one of Chamberlain

quieted her stomach and she slept
the whole night through. Two

a permanent cure and she Is now

Suicide In japan.

Carlyle's advice, "Consider that
you deserve to be hanged, and you
will think yourself lucky to be only
shot," is founded on a real trait in
human nature. Especially is it ex,
emplified among the Japanese and
Chinese. In 1858 in order to pun.
ish and prevent outrages on for,
eigners the japanese court issued 8
decree that among other penalties
any samurai so offending should be
denied the honorable privilege Of
committing suicide.

What God Desires Of Men.

God led his people out Of bondage
and gave them liberty. In their dark
est and most discouraging hours God
never forsook tham. They had the pres
ence of Moses as friend and guide.
They went through many hard and
trying experiences, but at last they ar
rived at the end of their destination
and entered Canaan. SO it is with us.
Now we are on our hard and danger
GUS journey. There are enemies on ev-
cry side. Often we are discouraged; wa
faint under our heavy loads. We MUIR
muir against the providences Of God.
This Is not what God desires us to do.
We are to learn patience, to trust God
to go forward under the guidance OF
the great leader, Jesus Christ, until al
last the end Of the journey will come,
and we shall enter our heavenly Ca
naan and be forever with our Cod
Rev. DR.. David G. Wylle, Scotch Pres

Infallible Guidance.
We need guidance to know when to
speak, when to smile, when to frown.
when to direct, when to enter upon
pubic or private enterprises, to whom
to trust our hand, our bAart, our prop.
erty, to know what to believe where
there is conflict or doubt. But there is
power than can decide in all these
cases. The impulse that so often guides
In the common affairs Of life Is like
the higher impulse that comes direct
from God. The more we have Of hi:
spirit the more habitual becomes this
instructive guidance. This will enabl"
us to decide between right and wrong,
to tell the true from the false, to tel
where to go and where not to 60, whcr
to speak and when not to speak, whcr
to preach and when to pray, when t.
lead others and when to hold back
There is such a power. Jesus Christ
revealed it to us as the spirit of God
and "he will guide you into all truth

II think you really are taking this
thing seriously, whatever it may be- ;
said Derrlnger, "and for that reason ]
am going to invite your confidence
Moreover, from what you told me q
while ago and from my subsequent re-
| Elections, have come to the conclusion
! that l am somewhat concerned in the
! matter. Does it relate to the girl Ill
| the orchard"
",The girl is Miss jones'" said l. "At
| least she SO desires to be known at
present.
Excuse me-" he interrupted; you
are writing a letter to your father
which deals with his desire that You
and his ward, Miss Sibyl Wayne, shall
unite your destinies."
That's the fact" l replied, "but ]
was not aware that l had ever stated
the matter so plainly"
'It was easy to guess" said he,
"from what you did state. Now. to re.
sumo, you have decided that the girl in
the orchard is Miss Wayne when she's
at home and Miss Jones when she
chooses to appear among us here. But,
my friend, whoever she is or wherever
she is, do you care for herW
81 will be perfectly honest with you,"
said l. 1T happened that 1 met in
New York young LADY,
PRECISELY" said he, 'and now l am
prepared to give you my advice. Don't
write that letter"
"Why not"
Because you are all up in the air.
You haven't a foot on earth. Miss
Jones is not Miss Wayne. The girl in
the orchard is not Miss Jones, nor is
she any one else whom you have had
the pleasure of meeting on these prem
ises."
"You know who she is ?" exclaimed.
81 have known for several days." he
replied. 81 am not yet ready to tell
you. When l am ready, it will be the
last word you will hear from me in
some time. Now don't ask me any
questions. There is a strange compli-
cation here, and it may as well be
solved all at Once-perhaps tomorrow,
perhaps the next day. Leave it to the
future. AS to the present, don't write
that letter. If you have anything to
say to your father, ask him to come
out here and have talk"

Jimmy Lamoine in the wagon that

CHAPTER XII.
MY ADVENTURE AND sCovEL'i


FAgY1 SAW Derringer again after
EMH Il dinner, and he persuaded me
RS.1szSl,@esSssSl to go out upon the road.
lssssmMS:SSH You and | need a little
general conversation" he said. I'VE
think too much about our own affairs.
We're getting sentimental. Let's smoke
strong tobacco this evening and discuss
the business of the world. Trask and
Scovel will help u.s."
Personally | would have preferred to
go down to the lake, but l recognized
the force of Derringer's remark. We
found TraSk on the road, but his COM
pGnon was Mr.. Witherspoon, whom a
west wind had waited to the eastern
border of the estate.
"Scoyel has been gone all day" said
the artist. pedestrian tour, | guess.
He took n teldglass with him. as if he
intended to find some views"
Hope he didn't go over to the HILL"
remarked Mr.. Witherspoon. It's
terrible place for snakes"
And he proceeded in his soft and
apologize voice to tell us narrowing
tales of copperheads and black snakes,
rattlers and "hooples." He was in the
midst of such a narration when per-
ceived Scovel coming along the road.
Twilight still fingered, and there was
enough to reveal that the lawyer had
tramped hard and was very weary.
eve were just speaking Of you, Mr..
SnnUpl ~ Coi1 NNithnpSnnnn.
hoping that you hadn't been over on
the hill"
He put his left hand upon the small
of his back, the palm being outward,
and seemed to straighten his spine by
a slow pressure in that region, and then
he cOughed gently, not because he had
any ailment requiring him to do so,
but as a general expression of dissatis-
faction with his physical condition.
Scovel waited for this characteristic
performance to be finished before he
spoke.
NO" said he, 81 haven't been near
the hill"
"Well you just came by the edge of
it" ventured Mr.. Witherspoon. "How-
ever, the snakes never come out into
the road. Most curious 'thing-can't be
duplicated in the state, I'll wager The
hills full of them, but you might as
well look for snakes on an iceberg
floating in the middle of the ocean as
on this farm. I've lived here more'n
half a century, boy and man, and
never saw one of 'em anywhere but
on the hill"
Scovel leaned against the fence, and
1 saw shudder run through him.
Then he shook himself together
Strengthened up and started for the
house.
"I've walked a long way" he said.
Pm hungry as wolf"
l noticed as he walked away that he
looked uneasily behind him upon the
ground, to the right and to the left.
No one else seemed to observe the pc
culiarity of his manner, and we did
not discuss him after he had gone.
Instead we encouraged Mr.. Wither-,
spoon to tell more snake stories, and
he 'obliged" with some that make my
blood run cold to this day whenever |
think of them.
ITO be continued.)
