everything newspapers use. They
are produced and sold on free
trade basis while benevolent govern
ment protects, with high tariff nearly
every industry from which they are
obliged to buy. These conditions
have denied to the newspapers of
the country their full share in the
prosperity OF the past ten years.
The extreme actions of the paper
trust, added to increased cost of
other raw material of newspaper
manufacture and the inevitable
increase of wages, handicapped them
still further in the healthy emula-
ton for equal share in the fruits of
prosperity. The general movement
to increase the selling price Of news.

attempt to restore the economic
balance violently disturbed against

competitive industry in the country

! the country, but I'll make free enough
on the cousin part of it to tell yol
that l could look at some supper with
out fiinching. I've walked a heap to
day, and amt used to walking"
Miss Matte sprang up, herself agar
at the chance to offer hospitality.
"Why, you poor man. said she "Oi
course you're starved! 1t must be
nearly s o'clock. almost forget about
eating, living here alone. You shall
have supper directly. viii you come
In or sit spell outsider
Reckon I'll come in" said Red
Don't want TO lose sight of you now
that I've found you"
1t was some time since Miss Matte
had felt that any one had cared enough
for her not to want to lose sight OF
her, and a delicate warm bloom went
over her cheeks She hurried into the
little kitchen.
"Mattiew called Red.
"What is it, WHIP" she answered
coming to the door.
"Can | smoke in this little house?"
"Cer-tainly. Sit right down and make
yourself comfortable. Don't you re
member what a smoker father was?"
Red tried the different chairs with
his hand. They were not a stalwart
lot Finally he spied the homemade
rocker in the corner. There's the lad
for me-" he said, drawing 1t out. "Got
to be kinder careful how you throw
$50 pounds around"
Mercy cried Miss Matte, pan in
hand. do you weigh as much as
that, WIZ

isfaction. And there isn't over two
pounds of it fat at that"
"What great man you have grown
up to be, Willr
Red took in deep draft of tobacco
and sent the 'vapor clear across the
little room.
"On the hay scales, yes" he answer
ed, with a sort Of joking earnestness.
''but otherwise don't know"
The return to the old home had
touched the big man deeply, and as he
leaned back In his chair there was a
shade of melancholy on his face that
became it well.
MisSMattie took in the mass of him
stretched out at his ease, his legs
crossed, and the patrician cut of his
face, to which the upturned mustache
gave cavalier touch. They were good
stock, the Saunders, and the breed
had not declined In the only two ex-
tant.
He's my own cousin" she whisper
ed to herself In the safety of the
kitchen. And such a splendid looking
man. She felt a pride of possession
she had never known before. Nobody
In Fairfield or vicinity had such a
cousin as that And Miss Matte went
on joyfully fulfilling an inherited In
stinct to minister to the wants Of
some man. She said to herself there
was some satisfaction in cooking for
somebody else. But alack-a-day, Miss
Mattie's ideas Of the wants of some
body else had suffered a Fairfield
change. Nothing was done on large
scale in Fairfield But she sat the lit
tie eakes-lucky that she had made
them yesterday-and the fried mush
and the small pitcher of milk and the
cold ham and the cold biscuit on the
table with pride in the appearance
Of the feast.
'Supper's ready, WILL" she said.
Red responded instanter. He took a
look at the board and understood. He

| household in the old days-for him
and his new world indeed opens
as they go forth from a captivity which
| had meant a deliverance.
| So it often is, so it might much Of
tener be, when God sends into indi-
vidual lives some startling providence
which causes old things to pass away
and all things to become new. Many
a deluge of financial disaster leaves a
man bereft, bewildered, and perhaps
tempted to despair; but out of the very
ruins of an old life there may be built
fairer and a better fabric.
For after any such trying or tragic
event there may ever be seen, if we
will only look for 1t
The Bow of Promise.
1t is ever present. just as sunlight
flashing across raindrops has ever,
from the earliest dawn of creation,
caused the prismatic colors to appear.
But men do not always see it; and we
all need the clear revelation of the
meanings of the Almighty to see the
tokens of sure and sound hope amid
the storms of life.
There is hope which springs eter-
nal in the human heart but which is
a human instinct rather than a spe-
cial divine gift. There is a hope which
is born only OF faith, a confidence
which comes ''out of the depths" when
we have entered them and emerged,
conscious of Gods presence and guild
ance at every point of the journey. For
the believer in Gods fatherly good
ness IN all things because he is able
to look beyond beginnings to a final
goal, the bow of promise ever appears.
No midnight can Danish the clear shin
ing of the Sun of Righteousness; and
wherever his beams CLINT across the
storms of trial and tribulation, the
glories of a more than earthly hope
crown all the conquests of Gods
mercy.
Sometimes n light surprises
The Christian while he sings;
It is the Lord who rises
With healing in His wings.
When comforts are declining
He grants the souls again
A season of clear shining
To cheer it after rain

EIideavor army is to be found in the
personality of our leader. Christian
| Endeavor is a monument to the pres
ent-day attractiveness of Jesus Christ.
| He is still the most winsome and Won
| derful power in the world. When
once they get a vision of him, the true
hearted youth of the world are glad to
acclaim him as Leader and Lord. For
| he satisfies their deepest longings and
highest ideals. He alone meets the ex-
pectatfons of the best manhood and
womanhood. In the sight of all men.
the young peoples movement lays its
| trophies at the feet of Jesus Christ.
The best thing about the modern
young peoples movement is that it is
Gods army. He began it and he is
guiding it. This new crusade is in
vested with deep solemnity when we
bear in mind the truth that it is of God
and for God. To be a part of this
movement is no small thing for it
means that one is engaged directly in
the service of the Most High. Greater
honor than this mortal or angel cannot
have.
~
We may prove that Christ is our
Master by showing that we are all
brethren.
Most of our lives count for very lit
tie. We spend them upon the insig-
nificant business of feeding and cloth
ing ourselves and honoring the whims
of our lean souls What tragedy it is
this wasting of mighty lives upon
baublesl The souls that God wants to
use in great service for Him are starv-
ing in selfshness. Somehow we will
not give ourselves up to a life of self
sacrificing ministry. We fear to throw
ourselves into the great work of Christ
and the world. To empty ourselves is
surrender and service is hard. There
fore our own lives miss the mark and
the eternal work of the omnipotent
God is hindered.
A Prayer for All Endeavorers.
Lord. our eyes have seen thy glory
written on the lives of an innumer-
able company of young men and maid
ems. We thank thee that thou hast
summoned to myself the youth of all
lands. AS thou hast watched over this |
society in the past. so continue, we be-
soech thee, to guide it by thy counsel, |
and to keep it in thy way Instill into |
our hearts a passionate love for thee |
and for thy church. May we never |
fail in our duty to thee. And Lord |
open wide our eyes that we may be- |
hold, and courageously accept all the |
opportunities thou hast set before us. |
Keep us from error and save us from
sin, that throughout all the earth thy |
name may be glorified.--Amen.

One of the messages of Christian
Endeavor's history has been that re-
ligion is an everyday affair. The
movement has pledged young men and
women to serve Christ at the post of
daily duty 1t has emphasized the truth
that the desk and kitchen and forge
and pillow may be as sacred as the pull
pit.
