myself to Him for greater consecration; you give yourself to Him for salvation.” “Yes, sir; I will be only too glad to do it;” and down they knelt. The man was saved. Thè elder called in another, and another, and another, and that day he led eleven men to Christ. When each believer in Christ gets right with the Lord, and has a burden of souls upon him, and seeks others out of love to Christ, he will be an effective unit to bring about a revival. “ W HAT IS THE MATTER W ITH TH E CHURCH TO D A Y ?’ This question is in the mind of thoughtful Christians. A very satisfying answer is found in the chapters of the above named book. Chapters as follows: “ Serving the God of Fashion," “Serving the God of Pleasure," “Serving the God of Mammon," “No Com munication With Heaven," “A Gagged Ministry." Each chapter deals a telling blow to these sins. A hook worth while for every Christian to read. 25c Each. Faithful Words Pub.

Playing th e B a t "Peter sat with the servants and warmed himself at the fire” (Mk. 14:54). We have heard a story of a battle be tween- the animals and the fowls. A bat was in the crowd. When the animals rushed upon the fowls, the bat drew in his wings and said, “I am an animal,” and then when the fowls turned upon the bat, he stretched out his wings and said, “I am a fowl.” That is/ the way with some professing Christians. They are always like the crowd they are in. Peter found it did not pay to play the bat by seeking fellowship among the enemies of his Savior. jH Purpose In Providence If God were to exempt His friends from trial and Suffering, He would take away one of the most effective means of their training, and one of the most striking ways in which they can prove their like ness to Christ. The righteous is more ex cellent than his neighbor, but it is not seen in his being saved from suffering; it is in the way in which he meets it. A merely worldly spirit is ready in severe affliction to fall into one of two ex tremes ; either to cast the trial aside in levity and to dissipate thought by some engrossing preoccupation, or to sink into despondency and consider all as lost. The spirit of the Christian, which is also that of the true man, is described by the apos tle: “Not to despise the chastening of the Lord, nor to faint when we are rebuked of him.” A. spirit of hopeful patience is that which most of all marks a Christian man in trial, as of one who knows that there is a purpose in God’s providence, if he could discover it, and that, where he can not, it will come out some day, filled with wisdom and kindness. Be An Obstacle The story is told of a well-known Welsh preacher who went to deliver the address at the burial of a pious and venerable vil lage minister in South Wales. Hundreds of miners assembled in silence round the grave, and these were the first words which fell upon their ears : “My brethren, the greatest obstacle on your road to hell has been removed 1” Can you conceive of a greater honor than to be such an obstacle as was that village minister? A Cross W ithou t Christ It is not correction, but the hand of God in it and with it, which makes us happy. A cross without a Christ never made any man better, but with Christ all are made better by the cross.
