The woman has conquered. She, who
before heard only the words of seeming
contempt, now hears words whose like
are addressed to but one other in all the
gospel history: 80 woman, great is thy

And now we see the explanation of
Christs dealing with her. He saw that
her faith would take no denial. and that
an apparent refusal would bring out that
faith in all Is majesty and glory. Her
reward would be richer, and adown the
ages she would preach to the discouraged
children of God. of the possibility of an
all-conquering faith. She teaches us. a
lesson that We should never. forget, that
men should always pray and not faint,
and that when God delays a boon He does
not therefore deny it.

cruel man, and when they saw him COM

little wooden shoes. and he tripped and
