CHRISTIAN ENOEAvOR
Prayer Meeting Topic For the Week
Beginning Nov. 8. 1912.


Topic.-The Christian vir,ues.--xI. zeaL
Tit ii. 1-l4 feonsecrat,on meeting.) Ed
ited by Rev Sherman H. Doyle, d D.
Zeal has been defined as "eagerness
in favor ut person or cause +" If
this be Il correct definition it natu-
rally fellows that the greater the person
and the greater the cause the greater
will be the zeal Human history has
demonstrated both the correctness of
the allow, definition and the deduction
that has been made from it, There has
been zeal for moderate men and mod
crate causes, but great men, great
leaders, have been able to inspire de-
votion that has been passionate. and
great causes have aroused a zeal that
has become a consuming fire. Upon
this principle Christian zeal should be
vastly superior to any other zeal. for
the reason that it Is devotion TO the
greatest person and to the greatest
cause In the worlds history. To such
person as Jesus Christ and to such a
cause as Christianity Indifference and
half heartedness should be unknown.
Christian zeal should be consuming
fame. a passionate devotion; IL should
absolutely control and direct our lives.
Christian zeal is enjoined upon all
disciples of Christ. 1t would seem I'M
necessary that it should be so. and yet
we all know the Indifference and half
heartedness of many professed follow
ers of Christ They are jealous In be-
half of their own interests. but abso-
lutely lukewarm to the claims of Christ
upon them. Hence the Apostle Paul
reminds us that we should be jealous"
and jealous of good works" For this
purpose he declares Christ redeemed
u.s. The zeal of man for evil Is well
Enown. There are men who expend
enough energy in dishonesty which, If
applied to legitimate avenues of life.
would bring rich and abundant re-
wards. The emissaries of evil are I'M
firing in their efforts To counterfeit
their influences and to replace evil with
good the disciples OF Christ must be
even more earnest and more Jealous In
all their work. In such way only can
success crown their efforts for good
We must not be weary in well doing
but jealous of good works"
Christian zeal should be especially
manifested in soul saving. The supreme
mission of Christ was to seek and to
save the lost. and this should be the
one great aim of every disciple of
Christ Every Christian should be
filed with "a passion for souls" The
work of the church should also enlist
the Christians zeal David declared,
The zeal of thine house hath eaten
me up" and John applied these words
to Christ when He drove the money
changers and other evildoers from the
temple at Jerusalem: Zeal for the
Lords house-for its worship, Its hon
or, its work-should consume US ALL"
Moreover, the Christian should be zeal
GUS in every good work There should
be no worthy cause that tends to meet
the needs of man, to bring to him re-
lief or to elevate him physically, NOR
ally or spiritually, but that should have
the whole hearted, earnest. enthusiastic
support of every disciple of Christ.

a FEW QUOTATIONS..

FEW QUOTATIONS..
Forever and ever the train goes by
The train of the marching years
Sunshine and starbeam and cloud in the SKY,
And under them smiles and tears.
Never pause, but on and on,
The grave years pass along,
With their battles lost and their victories
won,
And their mighty. motley throng.
We stand on the place to-day has given
To make or to mar our lot;
We may FIJI it up to the briul with heaven,
Or blur it with stain ana blot;
Bravely may toll for the good and true,
Earnestly strive and pray:
But the good or the III we ali may do
Mnst be done in the span Of to day.

GeuF N. D. rite .,Gn-
e-s have been writing these various
quotations, have wondered III you should
take the time to read them ALL how they
would appeal to you. Some OF them you
would assent to; others you would not or
could not subscribe to. Whate yer any OF
us may write either in private letter
or pu blication receives its color from our
own point of view, but have you all noticed
how much is said in many of the ''home"
papers, OF which so many are published,
about sunshine and hopefuiness and good
cheer?
The Universal Sunshine society catches
the eye of the busy man OF affairs, fer it
it has found place in many OF the news
papersinow in circulation. We sometimes,
aye, often, groan over the generalization
of society generally, when we read OF the
terrible tragedies which occur almost con-
stantly, and we doubt whether the world
is really growing better, as some claim.
/, But cultivating sunshine may work
| marvellous results, because the good book
declares that evil deeds are associated with
darkness; so the more light that can be
disseminated the better the prospect OF
evil being lessened.

Dear AUNT afadse:

Dear AUNT Madse:
do hope we shall hear some more about
this subject of flood values" and economy
and cost of high living. Oh, dearl do be-
leye am wrong on that subject - the high
cost of living, shoald have written 1t, I sup
pose. To tell you the truth, don't know
much about domestic science. but since the
subject was started in the column, have
been turning it over in my mind, and hope
the nieces who are housekeepers are letting
the leaven work also, so that soon we may be
able to compare notes - in the column of
course-so that some new ideas will help us
out.
have been wishing that some of the older
nieces would make comparison of the cook
ing Of fifty years ago, say, and the present
time. There was time when ice-cream,
canned goods, whipped cream and salads
were unknown quantities, and no Y. Y, z.
could bring out their values.
To some people a roast is roast and that
is all there is to it, but let me tell you what
purposes a four-pound beef roast at twenty
cents pound served one small family. II
was roasted in a covered dish, pint or more
of water being put in with 1t. Quite a hot
Ere was made at first, and then medium fire
kept. and the beef kept in the oven little
over two hours.
OF course 1t was served as roast beef. with
potatoes, etc. Enough of the "juice'' or
"s:nek" was taken to make gravy. Some OF
the gravy and potatoes being left, a relishing
breakfast dish was made by cutting in pieces
the potatoes and some OF the meat and warm
ing them up in the gravy. After taking from
the baking dish the fat which had "coIded'--
about a cupful, which is nice to put in real
or mock mince pies and which some use for
shortening for molasses cookies, the re-
mainder of the stock was made into rice
broth, few pieces of meat being added.
There were still some nice slices of cold
meat for the second days dinner, and if you
viii believe it, the small pieces of meat cut
from around the rib bones, with some pota-
toes left over the second day, made, with good
seasoning, very appetizing hash for the
next morning.
Here's hoping that none of you will con-
clude I'm mean woman or a "skinfiint'', but
no doubt 1T will seem to you, as it does to me,
that got my moneys worth out of that four
pound roast. Yours for the cause, BETH.

CARL SHERWOOD
Takes a Turn at the Bat After
Much Rivalry

Pierre, Nov. S,-Carl Sherwood has
been appointed judge of the Third cir
cult by Governor Vessey. Mr.. Sher-
wood and Governor Elrod, also of
CLARK, are both very fine men and have
been for years rivals for political hon
ors. At the foundation of the town of
Clark, Elrod and Sherwood located
there as warm friends and business
partners, but later became rivals in
business and politics. The town was
not sufficiently large for the two
statesmen to thrive ut the same time.
Mr.. Sherwood got to the constitution
al convention and first state senate,
and, for a long time was the dominat-
ing influence in Clark county politics.
Mr.. Elrod war not idle in the mean
time and presently was elected go yernor
and for number of years kept Sher-
wood in the shade. Just now Sher-
woods turn has come again, while Ell
rod is leading the life of a private
citizen. The friendly rivalry of these
two prominent and very capable
statesmen has been the subject of
statewide interest.
