Son of the living God.-Matt. xvi, 16.
Chapter viii, 27-3O.-A great confess

Jesus was now more than ever de
termined to meet the twelve by them

possible from places in the north

them to utter their mind. and Peter
seized it on behalf of the twelve. Thou
art the Christ Matthew adds the
Son Of the living Cod and Luke re-
ports the reply in the words "the
Christ of God" The three accounts
agree in the essential truth that Jesus
is the Messiah. This confession was
acceptable. and Jesus shed on Peter a
holy benediction tNatt. xvi. 17-i9).
Tell no man of him. He strictly com
manded that they should not make
known this truth about his McsSianic
character to the people. They were
not yet prepared for it, and miseon-
ceptions would surely multiply.
Chapter viii. 31-33.-A bad mistake.
The important feature in his instruc-
ton of the twelve is here explicitly

ADVANTAGE OF PERSONAL
CONTACT WITH TRADESMEN.
Corresponding With Mail Order Houses
Is Unsatisfactory Way Of Pur-
chasing Your Goods.

How good it is to have friends, DO
you realize the local merchant is your
friend: 1t is he who tries to make
your life easier by contracting for
buying from him. He invests his COM
paratirely small capital in things that
you need, which YOU use. always with
an eye for filing your wants. IL he
handles reriShable goods it is his loss
il they become unsuitable. He must
worry and take the responsibility for
the running Of his business. And what
is it all for. The local merchant, as
a rule. if he is adiudged a success,
takes no more profit than the Success
ful man working for a salary. Yet he
is forced TO he always agreeable to his
customers whether he feels in the hui
MOI or not and must shoulder the full
weight OF The cares of his business.
Take the head Of a large mail order
concern. He also is filled with the
cares of business. But his mind works
along different channels from those of
the local merchant. Fine words and al
Turing paragraphs sent to your home
in expensive circulars for which you
pay) are his speciality,
He may get up in the morning with
a crouch and his i'll temper stay with
him all day. He doesn't have to sup
press his feelings before his custom
ers because his customers never come
In contact with him. He has hundreds
Of clerks under him who are formed
into various departments. If you have
received something from his concern
Of which you have some complaint to
offer. you write to the office and a
subordinate replies, usually with q
stereotvped excuse signed by one of
the managers. IF this answer is I'M
satisfactory you write again and again.
perhaps. before you get anywhere neal
a satisfactory rectifcation Of your
complaint.
In Just this respect Is where the To-
cal merchant proves his value. If by
chance an occasion arises in which he
has not given you entire satisfaction
the local merchant is always there to
receive you and makes things right.
He has to. And he does it at once.
You see the proprietor In this case,
and He is responsible to you, not some
clerk a hundred or a thousand miles
away whom you never saw or con
versed with.
1t is to your advantage, Mr.. Gus
toner. to trade at home. Leave your
money with the man who is working
to please you and who has cast his
lot with your community. Don't dis
courage an optimist. All local mer-
chants are optimists when they start
in business, and it Is up to the pur-
chasing public to help increase hat
optimism. Optimism canno prevail
in any town whose people send money
to the grasping mail order houses
while the local merchant right at ones
very door, continually catering to the
wants of his fellow townspeople by
stocking his store with necessary sup
plies, is left to fail for want of patron
age.
