watch and Pray,

Fl. L. Hastings tells of a general
who after gaining a great victory, was
encamping with his army for the night.
He ordered watch to be kept all around
the camp as usual. One Of the senti-
nels. as he went to his station, grum-
bled to himself, and said, why could
not the general let us have quiet
nights rest for once, after beating the
enemy? I'm sure there Is nothing to be
afraid Of"
The man then went to his station and
stood for some time looking about him.
1t was a bright night, with harvest
moon, but as he could see no sign Of
danger anywhere, he said to himself, Il
am terribly tired, l shall sleep for just
five minutes, out of the moonlight, I'M
der the shadow of this tree" SO he lay
down.
Presently he started up, dreaming
that some one had pushed lantern be-
fore his eyes, and he found that the
moon was shining brightly down on
him through the branches Of the tree
above him. The next minute an arrow
whizzed past his ear, and the whole
feld before him seemed alive with sol
dlers In dark green coats, who sprang
up from the ground, where they had
been silently creeping onward, and rush
ed toward him.
Fortunately the arrow had missed
him, so he shouted aloud to give the
alarm, and ran back to some other SEN
tinels. The army to which he belonged
was thus saved and the soldier said,
81 shall never forget, as long as l live,
that when one is at war one must
watch"
Our whole life is a war with evil,
Just after we have conquered it, it
sometimes attacks us when we least eX-
pect It, Jesus says to us, Watch any

Nobody but the pople who have

An amount OF hustle unusual In the
quiet building was apparent as they
approached the stairway leading to Mr..
Brinstair's offices.
A police inspector was leaving the
room as they drew near. Are you on

.Eeing a Christian does not mean that
q man will never again fail into sin.
1t means that when he falls, he will
have an Almighty hand to help him re-
gain his feet. Though he fall" says
the Psalmist, che shall not be utterly
cast down; for Jehovah uphOldeth him
with his hand" Your little stumbling
child, clinging to your hand loses his
foothold and falls. The shock of the
fall Is less because your clasp is
strong, and holding fast to your
strength he struggles to his feet fright
ened, stained, bruised, but confident Of
you and your ability to help him.
Though he fall, he shall not be utterly
cast down." and no more are we who
through weakness and WEAKNESS stun
bic into sin. 1t is a Fathers hand that
breaks the fall, Il Fathers strength
that puts us on our feet.

HiHher Standards.

Higher standards are not matter
of thought, but Of life. We cannot
raise our standards of life merely by
thinking about them. No inventor ever
grew In fertility OF successful Ideas by
eonrning himself to abstract thought,
or to paper-and-pencil theory. He
must put his ideas into practical and
successful operation If he would gain
fresh and improving ideas. And this
Is our only hope Of spiritual growth
God cannot, or will not, reveal new
truth to one who Is not living the truth
that he knows. Standards have got
to be lifted, II We would have them
higher, and 1t takes the lift of life 10
raise them.

I have tasted pleasures laughing cup,
I've drank the sparkling draught all up;
I've been in love, I've felt the bliss
When love responds with kiss for kiss.
I've often been to the festal den
With wine and women and sportive men,
Where testing talk and ribald song
Rang loud and deep the whole night long,
But all the pleasures rare and fine,
Enjoyed when in our manhood's prime,
Are nothing more than shams in truth
Compared with pleasures Of our youth,
When we as care-free, happy boys,
Played in the house-lot with our toys
Or in the meadow at the brook
We sat for hours with tiny hook,
And, oh. our hearts would thrill and
bound
When wriggling fish lay on the ground.
/ would give what the world can't hold
To be boy as in days Of old,
To sit once more in the meadow grass,
And fish for the catfish and the bass.
But alas, elias, for me, alack,
The earth on its axis don't turn back,
And the happy hours the sweet, wild thrill
OF our boyhood days we long for still
Have gone from our life to come no more
And gladden. hearts as in days Of yore.

The Reign of Kindness.

Brighter grows the world as men be-
come more thoughtful of each others
comfort and happiness. In times past
1t was thought sufficient If laws pre-
vented people from harming each
other; mans duty stopped when lie
had refraned from inflicting injuries.
With the spread Of the knowledge Of
Christ the scope OF duty has wldened
and the world is being touched with
feeling Of kindness that is broader
than mere law compelling people to
refrain from inlicting blows.
