C.-"Agree with thine adversary
quickly, whiies thou art in the way
with him, lest at any time the adver-
sary deliver thee to the Judge, and the
| judge deliver thee to the officer and
thou be cast into prson."-Matthew
v, Is. In what way are we to agree
with the adversary? (Masten.)
Answer.-The term adversary" is a
general one, and means an oppoSer. 1t
I is sometimes applied to Satan, the
/ great opposer Of the Lord and His
people. The adversary mentioned by
the Lord does not refer to Satan but
to the Divine Law which had been
given to the Jews. Owing to the i'm
projections of the flesh no one could
keep the perfect Law of God. and
therefore it became an adversary in
that it condemned them to death. The
Lord Jesus came preaching to the Jews
in the end of their dispensation of IA
vor and extending mercy to them by
offering them justification by faith.
and not by the deeds of the Law which
they could not observe. Had the Jews,
as a nation. agreed with their "adver
sary," acknowledging that they were
condemned under it, and accepting the
terms of salvation offered by the Lord
Jesus, they would not have been deliv
cred over to the Judge. the just judg !
ment Of God, and then turned over to
the officer" the time of trouble, when /
the city of Jerusalem was destroyed |

A newspaper dated Friday, August
20, 1918, has come into the possession
of Edward Gerving says the St Paul

Mr. Gerving lives at the Marlowe
apartments. An elderly woman for

woman died and the son moved to
other parts leaving lot of old maya
zines piled in corner of the apart

ELECTRIC TOYS THAT AMAZE
Few Examples of Playthings That

Some of the electrical toys now on

says the Popular Electricity. Here
are a few examples which will prove
to be eye-openers to a great many
boys who are not in a position to visit
the large electrical supply stores
where such things are on exhibition:
For instance, there is little steam

pets and so it all amounts to the
same thing. AS pets for children or
for people who have no desire to raise
chickens for practical purposes, the
bantams have no superior. There is
no present that will be so dear to the
heart Of boy or as useful to him as
a pen of bantams. Without anything
to interest him at home outside of
the inanimate objects Of the play
room. there are few boys, especially in
the cities, who are not roaming around
on the streets. In pen of bantams
a boy has an interest which keeps him
home and keeps him busy.
