928 ever. known the great oil company of America to do was done in this connec­ tion. They placed. a great quantity of pipe for a pipe line near the Suez Canal. When the British forces started for Pales­ tine they commandeered the pipe, and began to pump the water from the Nile up to their troops. On and on they went, and finally they were pumping the river Nile into Palestine, and the Turks lost the land. There are some people who have so little sense as to deny the Divine inspiration of the Bible. The Jews are composed of three groups now. The Orthodox, those who believe the Old Testament, and look for their Messiah; the Modernists, who are about like the destructive critics of our own theological circles, and the Assimilants, those who are mingling with the other nations, marrying Gentile women, and even taking non-Jewish names.

He will be surprised: x. At the amount of money he has for the Lord’s work. “ 2. At the deepening of his spiritual life in paying the tithe. “ 3. At his ease in meeting his own obligations with the nine-tenths. “ 4. At the ease in going oh from one-tenth to larger giving. : “ 5. At the preparation this gives to be a faithful, wise steward over the nihe-tenths that remain . “ 6. At himself in not adopting the plan sooner.” — Tokyo Christian.
