Applied Truth.

THE Scottish bankers have published the
fact that they have lying in their vaults
a sum of forty million pounds in unclaimed
deposits. Some of those who owned a share
of this money may have died in the work
house; some of them may be living to this
moment in direst need, and they might
have their money for the claiming but
they do not know that it is theirs What
vast, unclaimed deposits are lying in God s
treasury Christ! Some OF His people have
died spiritually poor; some are living to-
day in spiritual penury, a hand-to-mouth
existence, with such 'untrackable' riches
lying at call, at deposit in their name
What have we done with our deposit? We
are responsible for its use and dsuse'' -

survey the horizon, we find many signs
of promise. The advocates Of conser-

respectful and attentive hearing. It is
a gratifying fact that many lumber.
men are turning to the forestry bureau
henceforth to be known as the forest

to administer their private holdings

included among the number. It is te
be hoped he will extend conservative
methods. to his extensive holdings or
