They Were talking mechanically. In

They had come so near, and yet they
were SO far apart. Moreover. they
knew that there was no chance of
change. 1t was matter OF conscience

a divergence which would widen with

mutually knew 1t, and it was because
of that love that they must stay

Some of the visiting ministers have

A young couple came into his rooms
just as he was going to begin service
in the church and asked him to marry
them. He said II they would wait until
after the service he would give them a
public wedding.
After the benediction he announced:
Now, will those persons wishing to
be married please come forward" It
Is recorded in the story that eleven
women and one man answered to the
call.
An Offset to that story is one told by
DR.. Alonzo R. Petty of woman who
was before a Judge asking for a d.

and said to the woman:

GRADES IN MEXICAN ARMY
American Woman Learned Something
From Visit Paid Her by Detach-
ment Of vlllistas.

Some years ago q humorous story
went the rounds of the newspapers,
about young lady who. at gather
ing of the Sons and Daughters of the
American Revolution. held her head
exceedingly high, explaining her
naughty demeanor on the ground that
she was descended from a bona fide
private soldier-the only private, she
was convinced, in the Revolutionary
hosts. The following incident would
seem to indicate that the Mexicans
who are fighting today are almost as
well officered" as the patriot army of
the young lady's lively fancy.
An American woman-now safe in
the states-writes that five soldados Of
the Villista following one day rode in
to her remote mountain camp. They
were very decent fellows, and made no
threats; still, in the absence of her
husband, 1t seemed only wise to give
them plenty of food and drink, also to
yield gracefully to the request Of one
of the number, who said he was the
captain, for the loan" of blanket.
Pretty soon second warrior inti-
mated that he, too, could use blanket
to advantage in his campaigning. add
ing that he. too, was captain. When
third made the same request, also an
nouncing his rank as that Of captain,
their hostess paused in her distribu-
tion of blankets.

captains?"
"Oh. no. senora!" replied the one
who had first spoken. II am Captain
Primero, this is Captain Segundo, and
that is Captain Tercero. Those"-in-
dicating the two remaining-"are the
private soldiers"
And at this the admiring sonora, &C
cording to her own account, at once
gave blanket to each OF the two
high privates in the rear rank

ing captained firstly. secondly. and
even thirdly, and also by admiration Of

no attention to him, he decided on
eggs fried after the steak, and started
for the door.

THE ATONEMENT

Someone has said that life is only
possible at present on one of two
conditions. Men must either think
very deeply or refuse to allow them
selves to think at all. There can surely
be no question as to which of these
we shall adopt. 1t is perhaps unfor-
tunate that great message of atone
ment going on before our eyes has no,
been proclaimed aloud by the pro-
phetic voices as the only explanation
of this catastrophe which the facts
will allow. Self-seeking in thousand
forms has produced what self-giving
is now marshaled to destroy. So far
from being removed, God was never
more manifest than at this moment.
1t is only necessary that VIC perceive
this and allow our hearts to respond
to it. Somewhere and somehow there
is place in which all may help by
simply letting the Christ in them
rise up to Saviourhood The humb-
lest service that costs something and
is done for loves sake is part of the
ageless sacrifice of the Son of God.
The Lamb that hath been slain from
the foundation of the world" is no
WORKOUT gospel; it is our own most
new" theology, and that Lamb is at
war with the Beast and shall obtain
the victory over him.-Chrstian
Commonwealth, London.

Are You Past 80 Years?
Take Hot Water and 'Anuric'

People are realizing more and more
every day. that the kidneys, just as do
the bowels. need to be flushed occa-
siionally. The kidneys are an elimina
tive organ and are constantly working,
separating the poisons from the blood.
Under this continual and perpetual
action they are apt to longest, and
then trouble starts. Uric acid backs
up INTO the system, causing rheuma,
tism, neuralgia, dropsy and many
other serious disturbances. Doctor
