selves. A clean, healthy body. balanced

who would do his duty. 4 mind which Is
cool and educated In the skill of thought

And IL Is important TO know what we
want to do. what the object Of this duty
or that may be. So many toll with no
dream of their labor's significance. We
must see, too, how men are affected by
the circumstances OF their life and by the
training or lack of training which has
been theirs. You cannot expect a man
who has had no culture in his life TO ses
truth and right Immediately as they ap-
pear to you. Solve these difficulties and
note how speedily their severity will les
sen and their power weaken.
1t Is great thing TO do ones duty. We
need men today who are guided by some
thing higher than instinct and nobler
than the desire for pleasure. The world
work calls for true hearts, brave spirits,
consecrated lives ready 10 follow the
Master in bringing the Kingdom. In the
home and at the daily toll. in church ana
In social life, In the personal battle OF
which none know. and In the honest pur-
pose to which God calls and marks IL az

ness to serve which looks not for praise
or profit, but only relies upon that great
call OF the King, Follow Me-" as the
power to stir and the glory to crown.
May God raise us all up to be men and
women OF high aim, undisturbed By
trouble, undeterred by pain, unshadowed
even by death which calls our fellow
workers away, with face always toward
heaven and heart always loyal 10 Christi

How the Deaconess Died.

Then there was Minnie Banner. the
nurse in deaconess hospital, at the
time of i fire that destroyed the building.
All the patients had escaped but one.
and she was the charge of the nurse.
Help me save my patient.' she cried.
But the lower part of the house was a
mass OF flames, and no one could help.
Jump and save yourselfr' they shouted
back. She could have dropped on to the
broad roof Of the veranda. Eager hands
were waiting to assist her, but she only
replied, Il can't leave my patient" and
disappeared. When 1t was over they
found the poor, charred body fallen by
the bedside, the hands still clutchng the
cruel fastenings which bound her helpless
charge. in a last attempt, in blindness
and pain. to undo them.
And there are countless thousands more
who. perhaps In less spectacular ways,
are ministering TO others in the name of
the King, sacrificing themselves that
others may be happy. They are solving
the secret Of true greatness.

An Unwelcome Truth.

Once more Jesus told them the truth.
The kingdom was not to be ushered In
by any display of might; He would be be-
trayed and put to death. Then the king
dom would begin to grow slowly. but GER
tainly, in the hearts of men. Surely this
was plain enough for every one to under
stand.
But, no! The disciples were not ready
to receive the truth. There was another
near at hand, TO whom the words were a
mystery-Salome, the mother of two of
the disciples, James and John. Her
thoughts were full of the coming king
dom How she wished that her sons
might be in positions of power at the side
Of the King, Surely they deserved 1t.
Had they not given themselves with de-
votion to the service of the Master? Had
they not been faithful to Him at all times
and under all circumstances?
Not pausing to think for moment how
her request would sound to the other dis
ciples, whose claims TO recognition, per-
haps, were Just as strong as those or
James and John-it is one Of the glories
calculate-she went to Jesus and asked
that her two sons might sit, the one or,
the right hand Of Jesus. the other on His
left, in His kingdom. Jesus. recognizing
that the request came in reality from
the sons and that Salome was only the
spokesman, turned to them. He did not
deny their request; He only told them
that IT would be impossible to be near
Him as they asked. unless they suffered
with Him. Were they ready to do this

But there Is something better than duty
in life namely, privilege. To serve under

at the call Of love and desire is noble.

There Is no more sublime picture than
that In which Jesus was the chief figure,
when he set out for Jerusalem. knowing
well what awaited him there. Heroism
Is always great. but the heroism that
leads men and women to do deeds OF self
sacrifice on the spur Of the moment,
splendid as 1t is. is not as great as the
heroism that definitely and deliberately
looks forward to life of self-sacrifice
and permits nothing to stand in the way
Of it.
Jesus well understood that death await
ed him at Jerusalem. but. he did not
falter. Steadfastfy he went on his way
to the capital. With him were his dis
ciples. They did not know what the near
future had in store for them. Christ had
told them, but somehow they would not
understand that there could be anything
short of q wonderful overturning of the
populace, an upsetting of the accepted
order OF things and the beginning of q
great kingdom. SURPRISING Rome in its
grandeur, with Jesus as king.

Service Of Self-Sacridce.

Jesus explained that the secret of
greatness was service readiness to yield
time, talents. life itself. as he was doing
for the benefit Of others. Slowly men
are coming to understand that this is the
only standard of greatness Thinking
men and women are paying far more
attention to those who are modestly MIN
istering to others than to those who
are making a great noise in the world
by reason merely of their wealth or their
accomplishments
There was the bachelor bookkeeper Of
Boston, who spent a part Of his meager
earning in buying leftover blossoms
from the florists, which he distributed
freely to the jewellers. in the tenements.
There was Thomas Hovenden, the Phila-
delphia artist just becoming famous,
who, one day while coming from his Nor
ristown home to the city. seeing a child
on the track just in front Of an adj
vancing engine, leaped to her rescue and
was ground under the wheels.
