If the series should not be completed
by this time the place of playing the
seventh game will be determined by
the toss of coin.
Probably no series that has ever
been played in baseball will attract
the attention this one will, and prob
ably no series, the weather being suit
able, will equal it in attendance. As
to what the series will bring forth
the cranks and partisans have been

She was only nine years old. |
had been preaching TO the children
At the close OF the meeting. Hattie
came TO me and said:
Il do want 10 be Christian: how
can | be-" and the anxious look in
her great, brown eyes assured me
she was in earnest.
Hattie, are you sinner" | ask
ed her. "Oh, yes; | am very wick
ed girl" she replied.
What, such little girl as you "a
sinner? How can that be-"
The tears could be kept back no
longer, and she sobbed as though her
little heart were broken.
Il an so wicked" she said.
Hattie, what did Jesus come into
the world for?"
ITO save Sinners" came the an
swer, between two great sobs.
"Then, If you are sinner, he came
to save you, did He not?"
will He save me?" she asked,
eagerly.
Eyes, Hattie, Jesus is willing and
waiting to save you now. VIII you
go home and give yourself to Him to
be saved?"
"I'll try" she replied.
"Why did | ask her to go home to
give herself to Christ?
The next afternoon Hattie was
present at the children's meeting,
but her sad little face showed that
the question was still unsettled. She
came to me and I said:
"Well, Hattie, did you give your
self to Jesus?"
81 tried to do SO, but I don't feel
any better. I asked Jesus to take
me, but I don't know whether He did
or not
I said to her:
ST think I know what is the trou-
ble;" and, as her face was turned so
anxiously to mine, seeking the light,
I added: "You gave yourself to Je-
sus, and then took yourself right
back again"
Eyes, that's just what I did," said
Hattie, as the truth suddenly flashed
upon her.
We'll, is that the way to do? Is
it not best to give yourself to Him,
and just trust Him to save you? Will
you do that, and when?"
ooh, now-this moment" and,
dropping upon her knees, she said:
"Jesus, am a sinner, and l give my
self to you, and I'll never take my
self back again as long as l live
That was all she could do, and
when she arose there was a new light
in her heart; and to-day Hattie is one
of the most joyous and earnest and
useful little Christians in all this
wide, wide world.
Will my readers do as Hattie did?

THERE WE'RE TWO TO SEE.

Two boys were one day walking
along the street together. One of
them had just come out of a store,
where he had bought some things
for his mother. While waiting for
the clerk to get them for him, he
had stood beside large basket of
fine ripe pears
why did you not pocket some OF
those nice pears?" asked the other
boy, who had stood in the door and
seen the fine chance he had to helm
himself. There was no one to see
you"
Yes, there were two persons to
see me, even If you had not been
there. | was there to see myself, and
L could never have felt happy again
If had stolen; and God was there
to see me. And how could I have
knelt down and said, Our Father
who art in heaven if l had taken
what did not belong to me?"

Of not being so suspicious of the Gre

or take his shoe out of his mouth

but I believe that every one who
really wants it can manage to buy
some cheap tract Of land of two or
three acres. on river, lake, seashore
or mountain-side. and build there a
camp which will give him comfort
and relaxation during his two to four
weeks leave of absence. There is
an unlimited amount of good times

Hich Glass Suicide

In China suicide has been a fine art
for several centuries. If Il mandarin is
guilty of misconduct he is requested
to put himself out Of the land of the
living. There is a distinction, too. in
the manner in which the oriental may
die. If he is of exalted rank and enti-
tied to wear the peacock feather he is
privileged to choke himself to death
with gold leaf. This is regarded as
distinguished manner of ending life.
If the mandarin is only of the rank
that is entitled to wear the red button
he must be content with strangling
himself with silken cord Such are
the distinctions of caste.
