nor fear, so her father said: “Aren’t you afraid, darling?” “No,” was the reply. “ But you don’t know who has got you.” “No, I don’t,” she said; “but you do, father.” The Christian need never fear when danger seems around. “ Our Father, which art in heaven,” is watching over us all.

Once when Spurgeon was asked to speak in the great Crystal Palace in London, he went there one morning to test his voice in the building, and from the platform uttered these words, “ This is a faithful saying and worthy o f all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.” Later Spurgeon’s brother was called to see a dying artisan, who told this story: “ Twenty-five years ago I was working one morning on the dome of the Crystal Palace. I was a rank unbe liever. Suddehly there came a voice, ‘This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.’ From that day till now I have served Christ.” God’s Word will fulfil its mission if we are faithful in our testimony. ■ «¡Sr M ay 18, 1928 T ex t: 2 Cor. 2 :15 When I was a boy working for the missionaries, I used to see a small bottle on the table in the bedroom. The bottle had a small rubber bulb on the top (an atomizer), and I wondered much what was in that bottle. One day I pressed the bulb, and to my surprise something like water was sprayed all over the room, and I heard a very nice odor (natives hear smells). Just then Mrs. Missionary came into the room. She knew at once I had been meddling, because there was no way that I could hide the fragrance of that perfume. So with the sweet savor o f Christ! If you have it, it cannot be hid, and others are sure to know about it.—From a native African preacher’s address.

A lady missionary in the East tells that one day a woman came to her with a baby whom she had found in a ditch. The poor child had been cast out by its own father, a 5 thousands of others in heathen countries had been, because,, it was “only a girl.” In begging the lady to take charge o f the poor, little un attractive object (it was covered with mud), the woman said, “Please do take this little thing; your God is the only God that teaches us to be good to little children."

Dr. Wilbur Chapman tells of a time when he was in the offices of the Southern Pacific Railroad in San Francisco, and the General Passenger Agent asked him if he had seen the big trees of California. “ I have seen them as I looked from the car window in pass ing,” said Dr. Chapman. “Then you have not seen them,” the agent smilingly replied, “ for they must be studied to be appreciated.”
