TContinued from last week.
Judas believed Jesus to be the
Messiah, and by joining the Apostles,
he hoped to secure high position in
the new kingdom. This hope Jesus
designed to cut off by the statement
Of His poverty, in the last issue.
Judas was of commanding appear
ance, a man of keen discernment, and
they commended him to Jesus as one
who would greatly assist Him in HIS
work. They were surprised Jesus re-
ceived him so cody. If he had re-
pulsed Judas, they would in their own
minds have questioned the wisdom OF
their Master The after-hlstory Of
Judas would show them the danger OF
allowing any worldly consideration to
have weight in deciding the fitness OF
men for the work of God. The Saw

knew the depths of iniquity to which,
unless delivered by the grace Of God
Judas would sink, so day by day he
was brought in contact with the out
flowing of His own unseliish love. II

divine grace would Danish the demon
of selfshness, and even Judas might

The steamer Nordjylland recently
landed at Copenhagen with some fifty
fugitives from Antwerp. There were
men and women. Among the latter
were six who had been nuns in the
Ursulin nunnery few miles from
Antwerp. They were Danish women
and said that as soon as Germans in
vaded Belgium the prioress ordered
them to leave the nunnery at once.
They were sent away so hurriedly
that there was no time to take any
baggage and only the most necessary
clothing. From the cloister they were
sent by railroad to Antwerp and CIV
en- into the hands of the Danish con-
sui at that place, who provided for
their passage to Copenhagen.

The paralysis of Danish shipping
resulting from the laying of
mines in the North Sea was
discussed at the state department at
Washington by Constantin Brun,

Lansing. Since the British admiralty
has announced that all ships passing
line drawn from the Hebrides
through the Farce islands to Iceland
do so at their own peril, Denmark,
Norway and Sweden, and to some ex-
tent Belgium and Holland, face com
mercial isolation. The conference
was general in character and at it's
close Minister Brun said he could not
suggest any remedy for the situation.

Though small in territory Denmark
Is not small in its inner mission work.
It has no less than 172 missionaries
employed in inner missions. These
hold mission meetings and conduct
religious services, make house to
house visits and distribute Christian
literature. Besides these there are
1874 book agents who sell books and
make house to house visits. The
inner mission society has under its
supervision 400 mission houses, three
seminaries and eight high schools.
