Postal Savings.

The peculiar usefulness of the postal
savings banks in drawing into circulation
money that would otherwise be boarded
was probably never better Illustrated than
by the situation arising from the Euro

savings system. postal savings deposits
have Increased largely since the outbreak
OF hostllities. In New York city IA, 71 new

The figures seem to indicate what

For an instant. I did not grasp the

romance Of mine is looking up again.
Somebody was preparing for q quiet

He knew he hadn't any to lose.
When you put those wooden shutters
UP, D warned him that o sus-

alarm was on, it would ring when he
cut the wire, but he also knew that the
chances were 100 to / against the cut
being discovered, or the alarm put In

"One risky undertaking Is enough for

Of it had come back with a rush. I felt
almost apologize toward Godfrey for

All right" Godfrey laughed. but

I glanced at the dark square Of the
window with a little shiver. This bust
ness was getting on my nerves again.
But Godfrey turned away with a shrug
of the shoulders. y

led the way back upstairs.

myself that I Just had to have some
body to talk to. Especially. after the

The burglar alarm" repeated God
frey quickly. What do you meant"
We've got a burglar alarm on the
windows, sir. It's usually turned off
in the day time, but / thought I'd bet

the ground floor without his apparently
discovering anything out of the way.
Let's take a loo at the basement"
he said. and led the way downstairs
with a readiness which told me that
he had been over the house before.

Godfrey proceeded with his search.

Spirit Of Service.

Christianity conquerS not by might, but
by the Spirit of God; SO they were To
face dangers without being incumhered
with too much worldly equipment. They
were, like every successful army, to live
off their conquests among the enemy.
Jesus lived a life of poverty, and came
in close touch with the men that needed
His help and who would gladly share
their goods with Him. The man that
follows the principles of Jesus will have
all his needs supplied.
The missionary or minister dependent
upon God to care for him has to act with
courtesy to all men. for the one whom
we are tempted to ignore and despise
frequently turns out to be the very per-
son that Is the chosen agent to further
the success Of the Masters kingdom.
Jesus was not only a gentleman in
practice. but He calls upon His follow
crs to use the usual social courtesies. eN-
cept as in the case Of elaborate and in
sincere salutations. that would have re-
tarded their missionary work.
They were not to accept the usual ORR
entail Invitation to visit their homes, be-
cause it would interfere with the success
of their mission. but He advised them not
to become a burden to any family or to
require a special diet c0nformable to the
Rharisee's ritual, but to accept whatever
was placed before them. He followed
up these principles by pointing out the
proper missionary methods
Medical missions were placed to the
front because in curing men OF their
physical diseases you open door to pre-
sent to them the great physician Christ
Jesus. One of the sources of weakness
in Christian work has been the neglect
of healing the body. The medical mis-
opened the doors of China
to the gospel. The Christian peo-
pie that have given as a denomination
. prominent place In their church work
to the medical work have won the larg-
est possible results.

Shut To Thy Door.

In the great example or form of prayer
given together with the instructions pre-
ceding and following it, we have the
answer to three important questions
Why do we pray? What is 1t to pray:
and How we should pray?
when thou prayest, enter into thy
closet. and when thou hast shut thy door,
pray to thy Father which is in secret:
and thy Father which seeth In secret
shall reward thee openly
The reason for prayer is IN the iact
that it is the only means of commun1ca-
ton with the All-Father who is IN secret
PRAYER is not a begging petition FOR
favors, but a communion and conference
between the soul and God. It involves
petition for forgiveness of all offenses
against the Father
The child who offends against the right
full authority of the natural father does
not regain favor by his words begging
for forgiveness, but by the sorrow ana
love expressed in his manner. The loving
looks and acts of respectful esteem and
reverence are the potential prayers to the
fathers heart.
So it is in our dealings with the Heav-
emily Father. The purpose of prayer Is to
establish fellowship and loving COM
munion with God. In our prayers we
have not to do with men. the transaction
is between God and ourselves alone.
