when they were awake they saw
His glory" There is no human standard
by which we may measure the character
Of Jesus. "Mightiest among the mighty"
writes one concerning Him. Another
affirms that with His pierced hands
He lifted the gates of empire from
their hinges and turned the stream OF
centuries from its course" To the
lonely Napoleon in exile He seemed so
sublime that after comparing Him
with the great leaders of all time he
declared to Bertrand that the Man of
Nazareth transcribed in every way the
makers of states and empires. He con-
cluded his observation by affirming that
what the world leaders had done with
the sword Jesus had accomplished with
the scepter of love. In the course Of
His ministry the great Master rarely
disclosed those qualities in His nature
that marked Him as divine. One of the
instances in which He revealed Him
SELF in all His power was on the Mount
of TRANSPORTATION, when to three Won
dering disciples He disclosed His one
ness with the Eternal Father. 1t was a
vision never to be forgotten, and to the
waking eyes of these three peasant dis
ciples the glory and majesty Of His
person were such that they would
render it permanent by building on
the mount three splendid tabernacles.
What a contrast in the scene that
follows.
Jesus was unresponsive to their ap-
peal, for already His sensitive ear had
caught from the valley below the call
of distress. A father in his grief and
distraction had brought to the disciples
of Jesus a demented son. The confused
disciples had been unable to afford the
relief demanded. fastening to the en-
barrassed group, the Master Immediately
addressed Himself to the deeply con-
cerned father of the afflicted boy.
Tenderness and solicitude character
ized His every attitude "Canst thou
believer" He asked "All things are
possible to him that believeth." 1t was
His unfailing inquiry. All that He asked
was expressed confidence in His power
Quick came the answer from the dis
tracted father Lord I believe. helm

There is no cowardice in lying still
and letting the thief get away witt.
whatever goods he may seize, and the
bravery of resistance is often dangerous
folly.
Psychologists perhaps may determine
by tests the nature Of individual re-
actions in the face of danger, but no
real measurement is to be made Of
those strange impulses which dictate
conduct when a crisis comes suddenly.
There is no test equal to that of the
fact itself, and it is always to be hoped
that such test may never be applied.

Gals in Washington and leading busi-
ness men who frequent the Capital much
oftener than heretofore.
Many signs point to a new orienta-
ton of major Government activities in
the United States looking toward at in
creasing nationalism. The view Is being
expressed in Government circles that
we are already more or less committed
to permanent policies based on more at
tention to national economics than to
politics.
Several of the Federal executive de-
partments are developing methods Tor
research into long-range business trends
showing which way we are going. OH
Gals are pointing to the fact that the
spirit and purposes of the N. r. A: and
the National Agricultural Administra-
ton seem to be determining the major
activities of the Departments OF Agri-
culture and Commerce particularly.
The former is now collecting statls-
inequalities and injustices in distribu-
ton.
The domestic commerce divisions OF
the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce are being used to tie in with
N r. A., and one of their significant
activities at the present time is the

lated, but of new organizations. both
commercial and industrial. Many old
ones, furthermore, are being revived.
| Nearly 500 names of new trade groups,
ranging in activity from the makers OF
poultry and egg crates to the manufac-
turers Of doll and baby carriages, have
| been reported to the bureau during
recent weeks.

DR. Willard L. Thorp, said this week
that the bureaus new activities will lay

 Exercise then," replied. If you have taken off fifteen pounds some of this surplus is bound to disappear from the tissues of the hands. Your hands should have had special treatment, with exer- cises every day to keep the cir- culation flowing freely through them. But 1t is not too late.

Rinse well in warm water, then cold, and dry well. Then massage Q rich, youth- flying hand cream into the skin of either hand with the thumb and fingers of the other hand. Work very lightly from the tips to the knuckles, then massage the knuck- les and backs of hands with 0 TO- tary movement, very gently so as not stretch the skin. Then draw on q pair of loose gloves and So to bed. During the day, use Q good hand lotion each time after wash- ing, batting 1t well into the skin. And whenever you have time, at night before retiring or during the day, exercise your hands. It's im- portant for active circulation, also to give grace and suppleness to the hands.
 Relax the hands completely, hold the arms out horizontally and shake the hands for several ,minu- tes, allowing the finger to flop as they will. stand with hands at sides, clutch fists tight, then release fingers letting them spread out and back as far as possible. Then wriggle your fingers as though you were playing the piano. Do this six times. Extend arms at shoul- ders and repeat. Hold arms straight up and repeat. Then fancy that your fingers are but loosely at- tached to the hands and you are trying to shake them off. Raise them above the elbows and with hands bent at the wrists shake them vigorously with fingers spread and loose."
