There was q bOotstool near Mrs.
Bowser, and she gave it a kick and
upset it, and cried out:
"You willed me to do that thing, and
I have started out with great success.
Keep it up"
Mr.. Bowser had willed her to raise
her right hand to her brow, and he
couldn't see where the success came
in. Perhaps, he had not exerted will
power enough. After a moment he
tried again. Mrs. Bowser rose up and
turned about and made horrible
iangle on the keys Of the piano, and
when she turned to him there was
glad smile on her face, as she ex-
claimef:
success Number two. Mr.. Bowser,

lecturing and make your thousand dol

care you going to tell that peddler,
who is shouting so loud, to stop his
noise?" asked Mrs. Bowser.
But there was no answer from Mr..
Bowser. He walked calmly over to the
drug store. On the way over he
wflIed that the druggist should greet
him with, "Hello, Bowser, was in
hopes you would come in this evening"
Mr.. Bowser entered the store. The
druggist sat in a chair alone. He
frowned at sight of the caller and
growled out:
81 was just thinking you would show
your carcass in here tonight. 1t is
just the night for jackasses to roam

Mr.. Bowser turned and went out.
His force of will carried him back

never seen her do before in his whole
life.
"Stop!" he shouted. "By George,

way, for I tell you won't stand Tor

"But YOU told me to waltz and kick"
she protested. 81 never should have

He turned his head away, and, for
long minute, he exerted himself, like
man trying to think he hasn't got
the tOothache, when he has it the
worst kind, and then smile crossed
his face, as he heard the cook clatt"r-

door, and said to Mrs. Bowser:
"Oh, ma'am, I wanted to tell you
that we haven't any butter for break

Mr.. Bowser had willed her to come
upstairs and say that her mother was

Mr.. Bowser paced the floor, seemingly
IN profound thought, though now and
then he glanced at Mrs. BoWser In
furtive sort of way. -
He wanted to ask her something, but
was a little afraid to. She finally
helped him out by remarking:
'You seem to be little nervous to-
night, Mr.. Bowser?"
"WelI. it is not exactly nervousness,
he replied as he took seat, out l
have had a great opportunity offered
me today, and, perhaps, 1t Is better
we talk it over bit?"
"Of course it is. If you have had
great offer it will affect me as well as
you. What Is it?'
"It is to go lecturing," he blurted out
in a kind of desperate way. "a pro-
lessor named Childhammer was in the
office today, and after hearing my
voice and noting how clearly 1 an
nounced every word, he said that
great field waited for me-"
"He meant that the public were
waiting for a lecture from me, and he
said with him as my agent 1 could
clear thousand dollars week"
Eyes, as q lecturer you would no
doubt be a great success" remarked
Mrs. Bowser, ''but, of course, 1t would
depend somewhat upon the nature OF
the lecture. What do you propose to
call it?''
"The Force of Will Power my

It covers the whole ground. I think
Won will agree with me, Mrs. Bowser-

"And men will go home from the lee

"That's it-that's just it. They can't
be great in minute of course, but
force of will will eventually lead up
to it,
"But how do you know you can In.

Here is where the descen

you that the Gentiles spoken of

Not that Noah's family vas
divided up into nations but that
they divided the nations in the
earth after the flood AS God
bad given Noah and mis- sons this
power and privilege as you will
see in the reading of the 9th. ch.
Gen This main point in this

wish to show the reader the two

The English have not been considered
saving nation, and one of the most
notable examples of the effect OF patriot.
ism on a whole people was the fact that
during the year 1915, although purchss-
ing billions Of dollars of war bonds, the
small savings banks depostors In Eng
land increased their deposits over
go. 200, 900.
The patriotic appeal to the American
people for war savings has met with q
similar response. Statistics for the
year 1917 are not yet available, but re-
ports from various sections of the
United States indicate that membership
and assets in cooperative building, or
savings and loan associations, increased
at least 10 per cent, the same rate of in
crease for the year 1916 and about the
average rate Of increase for the last 10
years.
The small savings bank accounts show
o similar increase in numbers of deposit
ors and amount of deposits. Sales OF
War Savings Stamps also show . great
growth of the habit of saving.
The American people have responded
to the call of duty to economizs and
save. They have not only purchased
nearly SO, 600, 600, 900 of Liberty Loan
Bonds and War Savings Stamps but In
addition they have increased their saw
ings as above shown. Patriotism and
saving are synonymous now, and econ
omy is a duty, and many millions OF
American citizens are doing their duty
In this particular.
