Arousing the Lost Rev. F. B. Meyer tells o f a woman who was sick and who took five grains of mor phine when she meant to take five grains of quinine. She at once became very sleepy. Her appearance so alarmed them that they sent for a physician, and when the physician came they discovered the mis take, and he, with the husband and friends, endeavored to arouse her from the stupor o f the drug. They shook her andbsprinkled water on her, but-fill', the time she begged to be let alone. “ If I only get to sleep I will get well,” she would say, while the physician said, “ If she ever gets fairly to sleep she will never waken,” and compelling her, they walked with her, one on either side, about the room through one whole night. T o ward morning consciousness began to re turn,’ and she was saved. We do not wonder at this anxiety or this gffort on the part of friends, but we are amazed sometimes if friends become as interested in their loved ones when the drug of sins begins to deaden their sen sibilities; we think it fanaticism if they seek to rouse their loved ones from their lethargy.
Original spirit o f the law. Our courts are crowded with cases where men who call themselves patriotic Americans, are self-, ishly striving to violate the spirit o f the law through technicalities. The Christian patriot o f today must begin where Jesus began and walk with Him along the pa tience-trying road of loving conformity to the laws and customs o f the land before h e.can earn the right to climb with Him the 'high and difficult path of loyal op position to the established order.”: * * * “Without a reservation I want to tell you that I think the magazine the finest, the freshest, the most scholarly. o f any religious publication which has at any time-come to my notice.” Thus writes, an accomplished Christian worker who only recently subscribed- for T he K ing ’ s B usiness . N ow think what she has missed through all these years ! * * * Dr. Amos O, Squire, Physician at Sing Sing : Most women who commit murder are acquitted, and the worst that can be done to them for committing murder is a 52 weeks’ engagement in vaudeville.
T hey S ay ... t ^ J. T. Adams in “Harper’s Magazine” : . “ The average man of today, and some minor scientists, may think that they have re placed a worn-out religious faith by ‘scientific knowl edge,’ . when all they have done is to replace one child like faith by another and one bigotry by another.” * * * Hendrik W. Van Loon in “Plain Talk” '. “ Everything that could pos sibly be diverted from its orig inal and beneficent purpose and turned into an instrument of death or active helpmate of cruelty and injustice has been So used. Now. that further scientific development has be come merely a matter o f pa tience and funds, may heaven help us: Otherwise the chem ists will get busy and invent a new variety of mustard gas and that will be the end o f this cheery little planet.” * * * A. D. R itchieinternationally known Chemist'. “We have succeeded in finding some order in nature, but it is equally obvious that the order liness is not all-pervasive. The fact that the regions, o f na ture actually covered by known laws are few and fragmen tary is concealed by, the natural tendency to crowd our experience into those regions and to avoid those that are unknown.” * * * The British W eekly: “There is a new school of thought regarding the next war. It sees that a war which takes four years to win may not be worth winning. But by sudden attack with thousands of modern aeroplanes, equip ped with deadly poisons, you could bring a nation to its knees in a few hours. During the last war, enemy aero planes dropped explosive bombs on London, but it is very dif ficult to aim accurately at any thing. When they discharge poisons from the air, it will not matter in the least where they fall. A very small quan-. tity will carry suffering and death to a wide area. There is, no possible defense against at tack by aeroplane; the utmost you can do is to make reprisals on enemy capitals ; but if the belligerent who . gets in the first blow is fairly successful there may be no one alive to carry out the reprisals.”
