Healing Of the Mind.

I know a man who, though busily
and extensively engaged in Christian
service, was for long defeated in his
thought life. The evil word and act
were checked, but he could not pre-
rent his thoughts from ranging over
forbidden fields, and consequently he
was brought into inward bondage and
despair. One night, at the close of a
service, as the congregation sang the
we'll known words:
Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind,
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need in Thee to find,
0 Lamb of God, / come"
the thought broke upon him, and he
that what he needed most of all
was such healing Of the mind" as
that unto which Christ pledges Him
self. Failing upon his knees he cried
IS he had never done before:
80 Lamb of God, I GOMEZ"
And his testimony is that Christ
brought him that night into an atti-
tude of new surrender and enabled
him to exercise new faith, claiming
this promise which has constantly
been fulfilled to him: The peace OF
God shall guard your heart and your
thoughts. Stuart Holden.

God alone has absolute power ia

aim the power to r~ecreate. This pow-

In assuming fatherhood you are

There is spirituality for the spiritual.

Th1ee-Legged Goat Barred

With fearful eyes Antonio Mafeeta
yesterday stood on the dock of. the
Italia Line, and waved his hand to
Billy" his three-legged goat.
'Billy,' meanwhile munched an ap-
pie and a piece of paper which one
IF the crew of the Taormina on
1hich he was departing from this
country. had given him, says the
Philadelphia North American.
At last, the goat vanished from
sight, and rage mingled with grief in
Maffeta's breast. It seems that the
Italian had obtained the goat, which
came from a part Of Turkey where
they grow -three-legged goats. He
intended to exhibit it in this country
as a freak. But when he got here,
he found that the importation of
goats from Turkey, Greece OF France,
is forbidden, and while Maffeta was
admitted, Billy was kept out.
Maffeta protested to no avail. The
deportation of his tripedal pet, he
was convinced, was a retaliation BY
the Government, for the Turkish at
tacks upon American missionaries
Anyhow, if it was the law, it was 9
hard law, and ought not to be en-
forced against cripples. So. 22-'00.

NOLAN TO LEAD FREsH1Es.
Glass Games Promise to
Be Exciting.

In preparation for the opening game of
the Georgetown Interclass League, which
is scheduled for Sunday morning. the
freshmen yesterday started the forma-
ton of their team and chose as their
leader Jimmy Nolan of Waterbury,
Conn., The newly elected captain
played quarterback on his home high
school team for a number Of years. and
according to reports he is a speedy and
heady performer. He has already plan
ned a system of attack and defense and
it is probable that he will spring sur
prise on the Sophs when the two aggrega-
tons clash.
Both elevens will hold their initial prac-
tice early this afternoon. Members of
the varsity will act as coaches in con-
junction with the captains and much time
will be spent In perfecting the signal
work. of the teams. In this way the men
will be better able to do themselves JUS
tice, and for this reason the battles for
the pennant will be much more than
farcical competitions for the fun Of it.
The rivalry between the classes Is al
ready at high pitch and much excite
ment is promised for the opening game
Sunday.
The Props are also preparing to inaugu-
rate their SERIES and unless something un-
foreseen happens teams representing the
first and second year classes will hold the
boards on the prep field at the same time
as the collegians are battling on the other
side of the campus.
