his professional ambitions high and
try TO qualify for as large place as
he can; but having found his place,
let him neither repine II he fails to
get quito what he wants nor rest In
ignoble contentment because he has
reached the object of his aspirations.
But when this Kind OF gospel is
preached the world at once asks.
viii you advise n man TO be con-
tent with less than the highest pro-
fessionul success?" Certainly. The
man who can only be happy when he
Is winning prizes has radically
wrong philosophy of life. The ma
ton composed OF such men Is fore
doomed to ruin. The man who plays
only for prizes. whether of money or
of office. Is destructive force In the
community. The man who really
does his duty as Il citizen is he who
seeks the opportunity to serve, and
Is ready to accept the measure of
opportunity which his success In the
competition gives him.
This is one OF the things about
which the college knows more than
the world, one where the college
standards of success or failure are
wiser and more Christian than the
worlds standards frequently have
been. Let us take care that we do
not forget or undervalue the lesson
we have learned here; and that in
dealing with the larger problems Of
life we value ourselves and our fell
lows for what they can do for the
community, rather than for what
they can do for themselves. Not the
power to win prizes. but the power
to take and fill the place awarded
him by the competition, constitutes
the measure and test of man.
This is the kind of measure that
Christians Of all ages have been
taught to apply. This Is the kind of
self-renunciation of which their
Master has given an example. This
is the more excellent way which Paul
points out TO the disciples. He val
ues professional success more than
any of his fellow-apostles. and as
much az anybody in the outside
world; but he rates the man higher

ORIGIN OF THE TELEPHONE.
1t Sprung From Bells Efforts to Teach
the Deaf to Speak.

Professor Alexander Graham Bell
is reported to have explained in lee
ture how he came to invent the tele-
phone as follows:
MY father invented symbol by
which deaf mutes could converse, ana
finally | invented IN apparatus by
which the vibrations of speech could
be seen. and it turned out to be tele-
phone. It occurred TO me to make It
machine that would enable one to hear
vibrations. went TO an auriSt aud
he advised me to take the human ear
as my model He supplied me with Il
dead mans ear and with this ear
experimental. and upon applying the
apparatus found that the dead mans
ear wrote down the vibrations.
Il arrived ut the conclusion that ii
could make iron yibrate on a dead
mans ear could make an instrument
more delicate which would cause
those vibrations to be heard and UNI
derstood. thought if placed deli
cate piece of steel over an electric
magnet | could get Il vibration, and
thus the telephone was completed.
The telephone arose from my at
tempts to teach the deaf to speak. 1t
arose from my knowledge not of eec
tricity, but as teacher of the deaf.
Had been an electrician would not
have attempted it.

istactory Proof OF why God Permits
Evil"
One of the questions which comes to
nearly every thinking mind today is.
"Why does God permit eviIf" AS we
look about us in the world we observe
that it is filled with sorrow and trouble,
sickness and pain and every trial we
could enumerate. and we cannot help
wondering WHY GOD ALLOWS 1T.
We realize that He is almighty and
that He could prevent it if He wished
We read in His Word that He is more
willing to do for His children than
are earthly parents for theirs, and we
know how much that means: yet of
tentimeS it seems that those who try
to do and live right have the most
trouble. This question is made very
clear in book entitled The Divine
is backed by Scripture, and shows that
while God does not sanction evil HE

Rritain,s Conscience Fund.

Much more money has been sent
anonymously TO the British govern
ments conscience fund than to that
of the American government The first
recorded payment of this kind was the
sum of $l.S00, sent to Pitt in 1888
with letter requesting him to apply
the money Ito the use OF the state in
such manner that the nation may not
suffer by its having been detained from
the public treasury You are implored
to do this for the case of conscience
to an honest man" Nearly every year
since then the chancellor Of the ex-
chequer has received a certain amount
of conscience money. In 1871 the
chancellor received $4,000 from a per-
son who stated that he had engaged
in smuggling for many years. and that
this sum represented all his profits
