last. A huge box was lowered into one of the boats, and when it was tumbled out on the shore, the children said, “ Oh, Missi, it rattles like crackers. May we take it to the mission house?” Then there was push ing, and pulling, and puffing until the box bumped against the door of the missionary’s home. “ Oh, Missi, please open the box quickly!” the children said. “W e are so hungry.” It did not take the missionary long to find a hammer and pull out the nails, and soon every boy and every girl held a precious cracker, but no one ate. “ You are starving! Why don’t you eat?” the missionary said, though he knew why they were waiting. “ Oh, Missi, we can’t eat until we thank God for sending the food,” they said, and then those hungry little black children waited until the missionary had said, “We thank Thee, our heavenly Father, for this food.” Would you have waited?— S elected . “Please whisper it to me: Before I am a Christian, How old ought I to be?” “How old ought you to be, dear child, Before you can love me?” “ I always loved you,.Mummie mine, Since I was tiny wee. “ I love you now and always will,” The little daughter said, And on her mother’s shoulder hid Her golden curly head. “ How old, my girlie, must you be Before you trust my care?” “ Oh, Mother, dear, I do, I do— I trust you everywhere.” “How old ought you to be, my child, T o do the things I say ?” The little girl looked up and said, “ I can do that today.” “Then you can be a Christian, too; Don’t wait till you are grown; Tell Jesus now you come to Him T o be His very own.” And so the little maid knelt down, And said, “Lord, if I may, I’d like to be a Christian now.” He answered, “Yes, today.” —Sunday School Times.

Hie Longest Candle An evangelist was talking to a group of children. He brought out a row of candles on a board. A very long candle was at one end, a very short one at the other end. Between the long one and the short one were candles of various heights. He said that these candles were to repre sent a grandfather, father and mother, boys and girls, and a baby—a family which had never heard of Christ until a missionary came. The missionary he represented by a lighted candle. The whoie family then re ceived the Lord Jesus into their hearts, and from that day loved and served Him. The evangelist then asked which candle the children thought represented the grand father, the parents, and the boys and girls. They thought that the tallest candle would be the grandfather, but he told them: “ No, that stands for the baby, the youngest mem ber of the family.” Presently one boy said, “ I know why. He has the chance to shine for Jesus the long est.”—Adapted from the Children’s Quar terly. Bible Arithmetic Multiply the number of sons Isaac had by the number of books in the New Testa ment. Divide by the number of days Jonah was in the body of the great fish. Add the number of chapters in the longest book of the Major Prophets. Multiply by the num ber of plagues God sent on the Egyptians through Moses. Divide by the number of books in the last division of the Old Testa ment. You now have the number of His followers that Christ sent out to heal and to preach the message: “ The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.” — M rs . F. T . B rowning . Would You Have Waited? F OR long, long weeks no rain had fallen, and there was little to eat, for the grain would not grow. The people on the little island had picked all of the coconuts and all of the fruit from the trees around the village, and still the ship which was to bring them food did not come. Some of the boys in the mission school would climb into the top of the tallest tree every morning, and look far out over the ocean to see whether there was not a sail somewhere, but there was nothing upon the water that broke the line where the sea seemed to touch the sky. At last they had to pick leaves from the fig trees for food. Even for this, these black-faced people always said, “Thank you” to the heavenly Father. They had never forgotten to say “ Thank you” since they had learned about the loving heavenly Father who was the Giver of all of their good gifts, and since they had made a bon fire of the idols to which they used to pray. Just at dawn one morning, the boys in the tops of the trees shouted, “The ship! The ship! It is coming I Hurrah!” Every one in the mission house sprang out of bed, and dressed as quickly as possible. Then down to the shore they all ran, for they were, oh, so hungry! The ship anchored away from the rocks, and immediately little boats put out from shore to bring the food that had come at
