1A NE day when Mr.. Joseph Jefferson
and former President Clevela nd
were together the conversation drifted to
the subject of future life. Mr.. Jefferson
expressed himself as being prepared at
any moment to meet the common fate Of
all. He added that he had lately, been
'scrlbbling some doggerel' on the subject.
and recited the following lines which he
entitled Immortality:
N wO caterpillars. crawling on a leaf
~ By some strange accident in contact came;
Their conversation. passing all belief,
Was that same argument, the very same,
That has been .proed and conned'' from man
to man,
Yea, ever since this wondrous world began,
The ugly creatures,
Deaf and dumb and blind.
Devoid of features
That adorn mankind,
Were vain enough, in dull and wordy strife,
To speculate upon a future life.
The first optimistic. full of hope;
The second. quite dyspeptic, seemed to nope
Said number one, Pm sure Of our salvation. -
Said number two. I'm sure of our damnation;
Our ugly forms alone would seal our fates
And bar our entrance through the golden gates.
Suppose that death should take us unawares,
How could we climb the golden stairs?
II madens shun US as they pass US by,
Would angels bid Us welcome in the skyi''
They argued through the summer. Autumn nigh
The ugly things composed themselves to die;
And 80 TO make their funeral quite complete.
Each wrapped him in his little winding sheet
The tangled web encompassed them full soon
Each for his coffin made him cocoon.
All through the winters chilling blast they lay
Dead 10 the world-aye, dead human clay.
Lo. Spring comes forth with all her warmth and
love:
She breaks the chrysaiis. she resurrects the
dead
And so this emblem shall forever be
A sign OF Immortality.

him. l walked up to him, touched him
on the shoulder and told him that if the
stone had hit it would have killed me,
asking him why he had done the thing.
He was pretty rabid specimen of anti
foreigner. and answered by jumping at
my throat.
II used to wrestle a good deal in my
youth in North Carolina. but by the time
l got him down | was minus a collar
my shirt was in strips. my coat half torn
off and my throat bleeding. l sat on his
stomach and demanded in Chinese, but
in the time-honored formula, Have you
had enough?''
He nodded.
I could talk. but not fiuently; he could
not talk at all, SO you see it had been
a pretty lively scrap. On his promise
to keep the peace If l let him up l re-
leased him and we parted.
But ended Dr. Lingle, Il have often
wished some one beside US two had
been there. and that he had had a
camera. Wouldn't that have been a
dandy snapshot to label Missionary

rebelied and refused to attempt the con-
quest of the land which two OF the
spies held they were well able tc
conquer.
Two only of the twelve spies were left
Caleb and Joshua, in fact, they We're the
only men who Were over twenty-one
when the nation left Egypt for the
promised land that had survived. They
lived because of their faith in God. The
hour for the demonstration of the COR
rectness of their faith had arrived, but
before Joshua gave the command to
break camp and move forward across the
Jordan he secretly sent two men to in
vestigate the land and the city OF
Jericho. They speedily learned the con
dition of Jericho and the attitude OF the
people toward Israel, whose forces had
subjugated the country east of the
Jordan. and whose power had made some
impression upon the inhabitants of the
land that he proposed to conquer for
assign to and settle with the people o;
Israel.
The sagacity of Joshua. who had sent
two trusty men as spies. resulted in their
bringing back report tat confirmed
the confidence of Joshua, expressed upon
his return from Investigating Palestine
thirty-eight years before, and his deter
mination to obey the summons Of
Jehovah to go in and possess the land /:
for when the spies returned and told
all that had happened unto them they
said to joshua: Jehovah has given the
whole land into our hand and the in
habitantS of the land are faint-hearted
at our approach.
Out OF their adventures grew one of
the marvellous triumphs of grace in the
conversion of the harlot Pahab. the first
convert to the Jewish faith, whose
name was enrolled in the epistle to the
Hebrews upon the glorious muster roll
of the heroes and heroines Of faith.
Amid the deceit and treachery Of this
woman of easy virtue. that we cannot
defend, there had been implanted a germ
of faith that brought for her and hers
the blessings of divine grace, because
she had come to believe that the true
God was Jehovah and that through his
power Israel would triumph and become
possessors OF the land
While because OF the low standards Of
public morals Rahab's lie was not con-
sidered disgra ceful among the Canaan
ties, as il ought TO be in any moral
community, yet out of her kindness and
protection OF the spies her soul, that
responded because oc her faith TO the
truth concerning Jehovah. must have
been transformed by divine grace so
that she became a lit ancestor for the
coming Savior Of men, Her attitude to-
ward Jehovah ought to encourage US
to work among the fallen.

- K. W. II. LINGLE, who represent
- China campaign committee in this

stories to tell of his early days in the
mission field of China twenty years ago.
The inventor of the phrase muscular
Christianity" it is pointed out, had men
like Dr. Lingle in mind when he coined
1t.
The man is both tall and brawny, and
admits that once or twice his physical
proportions stood him in mighty good
stead.

he said several days ago, ''and was en-
