Jesus, when he was betrayed by Jul
das into the hands of the Romans,
could not perform as great miracle
then as when he healed the sick, rails
ed the dead, Gained the sea, made
the water into wine and other such
miracles as our Lord performed dur
ing his ministry.
Even so Judas believed this, and
through the devil Jesus was made to
believe that he could cause such a
miracle, or that he could cause Jesus
to perform such a miracle as would
astonish the world, and bring the
world to Christ as result.
But this miracle was not to be, and
through the devil he was blinded of
this fact.
The devil was in Judas. But why
was the devil in Judas? 1t was not
there by the will of Judas, but by the
will of God. 1t was to be, and moth
ing could keep the devil out of Judas,
even though it was against his will.
God made Judas to betray Christ, and
because he did this and the devil was
in him by the will of God and against
his own will, will God condemn him?
Judas was without the devil until
after the last supper" He was pos
sessed of the devil from that time on
and souhgt to betray his Lord. Why
did he seek to betray his Lord? Be-
cause it was part of the plan, and
it was Gods will that it should be.
Judas sold his Lord for thirty piec-
es of silver But why was there to
be any money in the transaction at
all? Why couldn't he have given his
Lord over into the hands of the Ro
mans without money?
Judas did not need this money, for
he was not without funds, and if he
had been without money, the thirty
pieces of silver was only very small
amount. Why did he not ask for
more money? 1t is the question of
the devil again. The devil had made
him crazy, and he did not know what
he was doing.
Judas betrayed his Lord into the
hands of the Romans, and when it
was done the devil left Judas, and his
eyes were opened and he saw what
he had done. The devil had betrayed
Judas into too great a faith in his
Lord, and had blinded him as to the
result, until it was too late.
What did Judas then do. but repent
of his sins, even to suicide? His suit
eide was the direct result Of repent
once and too much faith
Self-destruction is condemned by
God But what of Jesus words on
the cross: Father forgive them, for
they know not what they do
Weigh these facts and see if there
is not justification enough in them to
land Judas in heaven. AS sure as any
body has gone to heaven, even so has
Judas.
Would God make a man to fill a
place in this world, and then give him
no chance of heaven? Would God
make a man, and at the same time
make him sure of hell?

AS SURE AS ANY HAS ENTERED

There is nothing connected with
the Bible more wrongly looked at
than the history OF Judas Iscarot and
the betrayal of his Lord into the
hands Of the Romans. There is no
other man in the New Testament
more freely classed as a bad man.
Why, Judas was not bad man. He
was just possessed of the devil by the
will of God. Al the time the. devil
was in Judas he had not lost faith
in his Lord. He even at that time
had more faith than either of the
twelve disciples. He reasoned, and
there Is no more reason to doubt that

Earning College Expenses.

Miss Florence McArdle, senior at
Boston university, is in charge of the
girls department of the students
employment bureau. This year about
one hundred women students have
been supplied with work. Boston uni'
versity was one Of the first colleges tc
realize the value of an employment
bureau for its students.
Miss McArdle says that one of the
best ways for girls to work their way
through college. is to get into a fam.
lily where in return for performing
certain household duties they get
room, board, laundry and car fares
Never before have so many girls been
working their way by this method as
this year, and the supply was not
equal to the demand. Miss McArdle
is working her way through college
and in return for a specified number
of hours at the bureau gets her tut
tion free. Before taking up this worh
she had tutored, done Office work and
many other things to support herself
while getting education.

DICKENS METHOD OF LABOR
Walked, According to Testimony
of Old Friend.

Marcus Stone, the veteran painter
whose old-fashioned young men and
maidens meeting or parting in old
fashioned gardens have for SO many
years delighted the British public,
celebrated his 72nd birthday last
week. He has been giving some Of
his "reminiscences.
Every Christmas and every summer
for 20 years Marcus Stone used to
visit Charles Dickens at his various
homes, especially at Gad's Hill, near
Rochester
Dickens" says Stone, was one Of
the greatest and kindest men l ever
met. He was imbued with the true
Christian spirit. What particularly
struck me at Gads Hill was the at
mosphere Of calm and comfort one
felt at once on entering the house.
"At o'clock every afternoon we
used to have a 20-mile walk in the
country round. Dickens spoke but lit.
tie while walking, and this after q
time led me to discover the secret Of
his amazing industry. He sat only for
q few hours at his desk. and I always
wondered how he could be SO prolific
an author.
well. owing to his taciturnity in
our country walks l began to suspect
that 1t was then he evolved most of
the plots OF his novels. His brain
was active all the time and the task
Of reproducing on paper the things he
imagined and thought about became
more or less a mechanical process"
