HAULS WAGON IN STREET TO
SAVE HIS TIRED HORSE.
Preston NEWS Service

WASHINGTON, D. c., MARCH 21.--
The strange sight of master serving
his dumb animal was so unusual that
all of the office force of the Police Court
stopped work last Friday to watch a
colored man pulling his wagon up
Sixth Street, while his horse calmly
walked behind.
Both seemed oblivious to the atten-
ton and jeering remarks that were d.
rected to them by curious pedestrians
on the sidewalks. The old man would
pull the wagon for short distance
and stop to rest, but made no attempt
to compel aid from the horse.
When questioned he said, that his
horse had become fatigued after pull
ing heavy load, and, not Wishing to
overburden the animal he said, :, l
climbed into the harness and started
homeward. That horse is tired. know
he is. He couldn't tell me so. Most peo'
pie are dumber than animals, migrate
full and lazy too," he concluded and
then resumed his way homeward.

SALVATION ARkIY SELF DENIAL
APPEAL FOR HOME AND
FOREIGN MISSIONS.

To The PUBLIC
Self-denial week is the great centre
the Salvation Army the season when
all our forces, all our faith, and al our
energy are forcusSed upon needs which
in no way affect our own sphere or sur
roundings.
In word, self-denial is the cup
which takes the measure Of our love
for the great missionary responsible
ties which God has laid upon us all. for
after all, every child Of Grace is mis-
sionary and should be partaker in the
work Of Christ.
As 1 think Of self-denial and all It
means, and all it asks. it comes to me,
such an effort must be the most wei
come, the most natural and the most
dear to any consecrated heart.
The need of the Salvation Army at
this particular time has grown mex
pressibly big, and from all parts of the
missionary world comes news-that
goes to show that the opportunity is
so stupendous that the lover of souls
is lost in its immensely. In far-away
China, and Japan, Korea and India,
and in hunger-stricken, woe-oppreSsed
Central Europe also among us in this
great United States of ours comes the
call for help, will you help to alleviate
the spiritual and financial needs Of the
needy? But you may say how can |
help? God says Bring We all the tithes
into the Storehouse that there may be
meat in my house, and prove me now
herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if
will not open the windows of heaven
and pour you out blessing that there
shall not be room enough to receive it.
Malachi $40, thus you see there is
great blessing in giving to the work
of God; hence, your donation sent to
the Salvation Army Self-lDenial APP
peal in care of Captain R. ]. Chrisholm
the officer in charge of the Colored
Branch, at 316 W. Clay Stree will be
appreciated and will be used by the
