you'd better let me take your wrap
she laughed and confessed:

you could see what a very shabby lit.

And the prince said the cloak wasn't
any prettier than the hat, and that
the hair under the hat was the pref.
test Of all, and just then the beauti-
full lady came along and asked: "Have
you made friends with my boy, Mar
cia?" w.
Il think he is lovely" she said. and
blushed prettily.
She was carried OF to dinner with
the beautiful lady, and the prince went,
too. And when Marcia took off the
cloak he said he liked her in her sim
pie little suit "Only you must still
wear the violets, because they match
your eyes,"
1t was all very dear and delightful
but that night when Marcia went home
to her poor little apartment she told
herself that, of course, she must not
expect anything more. 1t was New
Years fairy tale; and that was all.
But the beautiful lady came every
day and took Marcia out with her. and
often the prince was there, and at last,
one day, Marcia said: Dear beautiful

But she did not say that the real rea.
son for her protest was because of the
prince. He was such a charming
prince, and she felt that for her own
peace of mind she must not see too
much of him.

1t is Gods will for Christians to give a
nominal assent to the declaration that
Christ died as the Redeemer Of men, and
to turn from outward forms of sin and
then, content with their progress, help
others to the same low standards: and to
call this Saving souls"
On the contrary according to the teach
ings Of Jesus and the Apostles, such be-
lief and turning from outward sin is mere
ly the first step tO1ard Christianity and
not at all a step IN Christianity. The
Scriptural definition of Christian should
not be overlooked by those who would
make their calling and election sure
Those who have believed on Jesus and
who have turned their backs upon sin are
drawn, called, invited to become his fol-
lowers, ito walk in his steps," to take
up their cross and follow him. to drink Of
his cup, to be baptized into his death.
The difficulty is that the name Christian
has become popular synonym for intel
ligence. AS everybody likes to be thought
intelligent and refined, gentlemen and gen.
tlewomen, SO all like to be called Chris
tians. Few have the courage to declare
that they have no real knowledge of the
Great Teacher, that they rarely think of
him and have never so much as consid-
cred the matter of becoming his disciples
followers in his footsteps.
