When she finally got the number | neither her son nor daughter4in- law was at home. Then she did cry.l Her lips quivered and Mickey felt | so sorry that he asked her if she would like to eat . hot dog. She didn't know what a hot dog was, but admitted she was hungry. T haven't had anything to eat since o'clock this morning" Mickey got her seated again and went and bought the hot dog. He decided not to eat any lunch hini- self to make up for spending for her.
 Again he left her. Mickey he'd very little luck that afternoon. Sev- eral times he went back to find the little old lady sitting there. worried, and alone. Twice he took his precious nickels and tried to get her number. Evening came, and still no one to meet her. At 1880 he made up his mind to take her to her grandson's address. When he told her, she beamed. radiant with joy.
 "God will bless you. my boy" she said.
 I rode as far as 1t went toward their destination. There Mickey took her packages and walked eleven blocks when she grew tired. At Q o'clock they reached the address. which was nice looking house. Mickey went up the steps and rang the bell. No one answered.. | '. A asa fea& 1se was such a manly little fellow a lady in distress. Again she began to weep and dropped down on Glie steps. Mickey sat down beside her and tried to comfort her.
 They sat for an hour or more. trying to be cheerful. Mickey had called his mother, but he had not He kept worrying; finally when if leave her, or take her home with him, car drove up to the curb.
 A young matron got out and came toward them.g followed by q nice looking man about 35. The little old lady got to her feet and almost fell into his arms.  70 Benny, Benny. where have you been? have been trying all day to get you. and but for this nice young man I'd have been In the railroad station yet" The man held her close, while the young matron explained that they had been away all day and had not expected her until next l week. When she was quiet the young man turned to Mickey: Come in with us a minute, then I'll take you home"
 Inside the house he questioned Mickey about his job and his fam- fly. Mickey told him everything. and when he finished the man gave him his card, which read:
 B. ]. Gray, ice-President, Lily Gray Soap Company.
 Then he pushed some bills into Mickey's hand, which made Mickey's eyes open in amazement-
 70, sir" said Mickey, TT couldn't take that. Twenty-Five dollars is more than make in a week." Sure you can. Grandmother's worth that! And tomorrow morn ing you be at my office at n o'clock. I'll give you real job"
 He pushed Mickey's cap on his head. "Now, Helen, you look after grandmother while take Mickey home" 2 Copyright. 1895.

BY MARGARET A. TAPP

Mickey was new at the job. but he expanded his chest in pride as he stood near the gates at the Union station. He was only 16 years old, but since his fathers death last year he had been help- ing his mother take care of the family. He thought of her now sewing fin that dark tenement room where four of them lived, he and his mother and the two younger children.
 Tears spfang to his big eyes: he wouldn't always be red cap. He'd go to night school and get rich; then he could send Rosie to school and buy her dolls. Rosie was the baby only IS months old. She lad been born two days after Tim, Mickey's father. had been killed in the yards.
 His meditations were cut short by the grinding roar of the train coming in. The great transconti- mental engine came to a stop, and stood puffing on the track. The gates were opened and Mickey raced toward the Pullman.
 
 He was not 50 tall as some of the boys, but he ran while they walked. Some of them did not care. As he sped down the long runway he bumped into a little old lady in a black bonnet and shawl, carrying too many bundles under her left arm and holding tight to, her suit case with her right hand.
 Excuse me, lady" stammered Mickey. Then seeing her difficulty, he added: "Can I help your"
 Would you, please" she asked, giving over her bundles and the heavy bulging suitcase.
 Some of the older redcaps each other. Mickey was green; picking an old lady cut of coach. Mickey got their meaning; he knew there would be no tip, but he thought of his own mother. He watched all the fur coats go by and gritted his teeth.
 He'd pick swell one next time. But he had to help this poor, little, old lady. There was something pa thetic about her. and sort of sweet. She walked so slow, Mickey had to slow up to keep with her. She kept looking this way and that.
 My grandson was supposed to meet me-" she said, in Q timid voice.
 Maybe he's late" said Mickey. Don't worry, lady, he'll be here."
 Mickey placed her on bench and told her not to worry.
 One hour later Mickey noticed

: 4. Disciples called Christians first
I in Antioch ". 26l. After a year of
teaching by Paul and Barnabas the
name christian" was given to the
disciples. Observe that the name
was associated with the teaching.
. Paul taught the vital oneness of
the believer with Christ; therefore,
it was natural that the disciples
should be called Christians. The
notion that the name "Christian"
was given in derision has no factual
basis.
w. Barnabas the Dispenser of
Aims wv. 27-30). Because of the
oneness of Christians with Christ
and with one another, the distress
of the brethren at Jerusalem must
be relieved by the gifts of believers
at Antioch. The Spirit of God,
through Agabus, made known the
coming dearth which was to prevail
throughout all the world. The dis
ciples were therefore moved, &C
cording to their ability, to send re-
lief unto the brethren in Judea.
: These gifts had a powerful effect
in removing the suspicious of the
brethren at Jerusalem.

man, and full of the Holy Spirit and
of faith.-Acts 1924.
! PRIMARY TOPIC-Barnabas' Love

JUNIOR ToPIc-The Friendly
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR
! TOPIC-How Barnabas Used His
Possessions.
. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT
TOPIC-In Partnership With God.
) The explanatory title given by
the lesson committee, "Barnabas "a
Consecrated Man of Means)," is not
: entirely satisfactory, as it empha-
, sizes only one of his many excel
lent qualities.
! |. Barnabas the Man (Acts 1867.
His original name was Joseph.
When he became a Christian he
was by the apostles renamed Barna-
bas, which doubtless signifies the
change from the old life to the new.
This was a common custom, e. g.,
Simon to Peter and Saul to Paul.
The name means "son of prophecy"
or 'son of exhortation and consola-
ton" This shows not only the ma
ture and spirit of Barnabas but in
dicates that he possessed a gift of
t hortatory preaching.
II. Barnabas the PhiIanthropist
(Acts 80.
So fully had the divine love per-
meated the very being of Barnabas,
that, seeing the need of his fellow
believers, he sold his property and
brought the money and laid it at
the apostles feet. He was in no
sense obliged to do this as there
was no such binding law of a COM
munity of goods in the early Church.
Private ownership of property was
recognized (Acts $40.
Ill. Barnabas the Christian
Statesman (Acts 9 :26-30; II 1890.
1. Befriended Saul (9:26, ~.
After Saul's conversion he came to
Jerusalem and tried to join himself
to the disciples, but they we're afraid
of him. Barnabas saw that Saul
was really converted man. Being
good man he could see there was
good in Saul. To be able to judge
personality is the first mark of a
Christian statesman.
2. Sent to Antioch (Acts II %
24). Violent prosecutions of the
Church sent many disciples to the
regions about the Mediterranean
sea. AS they went they preached
the gospel and churches were es-
: tablished. The most conspicuous of
these was at Antioch, the capital Of
Syria, becoming the most important
! center in the spread of Christianity.
! Everything went well as long as the
gospel was preached to the Jews
only, but certain of these disciples
deliberately preached Christ among
I the Greeks. They announced to
them that God had become incar-
mated in a man, that that man, aft
er a ministry of love and grace, had
died a sacrificial death on the cross,
and that salvation was now Of
! fered to all who would accept him.
, Tidings having reached the ears
of the Jerusalem Church that a
great work of grace was expressing
itself through the Grecians who
were preaching the Lord Jesus
Christ at Antioch, Barnabas was
sent to look after it. Barnabas was
, a good man and full of the Holy
Ghost and faith. He, therefore,
had spiritual discernment and broad

bank account amounted to very little.
It appeared that Tyson Peabody
was right. When the estate was set
tied and the property disposed Of,
there would be nothing left for Helen.
WELL" said Helen soberly, "all I
body. But in the meantime. I've got
to have money to live on, and that
means I must find job. Did your
father get any ideas about that last
night?"
"He said he'd make some inquiries
today" Ralph reported. HE thought
there might be a chance for you at

Helen said goodby to Ralph few
moments later and started back to
the house. But before reaching it she
suddenly changed her mind and re-
traced her steps. She passed the
Wilson house, caught a street car at
the corner below and rode downtown.
If she needed job, she told herself
she might as well start looking for it
at once, and not depend on DR.. Will
son to have one handed to her on a
silver platter.
When she returned to the house
late that afternoon she was tired and
practically penniless. Lunch and car
fare had taken almost all of the money
she had left. But she had the promise
of possible job. She had gone to
Granger's Department Store and
talked to the manager. He had told
her to come back the next day for
q definite answer. Her pay would be
small but it would be better than
nothing.
