Tb.-y built the largest h<> tel tn mid-Turkey there, now gone to seed In the city are tine remains of Saracenic art. and the great headquarters of the now abolishid dervishes. The mountains with names recalling Haul, are superb An American Woman in Iconium i One of the m<»et romantic stories ’ of the world war was staged at i Iconium where there was a fine I American hoapital. staffed by InDodd and Dr Post and Miss Cushman. They were ordered out by the Turks at the beginning of the war. but Mlsa Cushman refused to go. K-.ma was a center foi prisonera of war and tor refugees, and .ba need was appalling. Mias Cuahmau had secret communication with Ambassador Morgenthau. who promised to make I good any checks oho should draw. I That lone woman became the repreoeutativa of seventeen allied and neutral nations; feeding the hungry by the thousands, making life i tolerable tor the British prisoners I mother!im the orphans, supervising the care of the si< k, and burying the dead. The magnitude and . variety of her work staggers the imagination She wrote out on her typewriter checks tor more than a million dollars, all of which were ; honored. Then, after war, instead of returning home to receive the ( acclaim of the world, she carried ■ f on. carmg for thousands of orphans. and died a victim of her labors A Place of Great Names Many famous names are sksoci- | ated with Iconium. one of the oldtwat cities in the- world; but none | shine so bright as those of th<*, | A post Io Paul and Mi»s Cushman | ttwo of a kiud.

They them selves were roughly handled, but God s man la leas < imeerued In hia personal welfare thati for Goda cause. Sven by the misakmariaa' sufferings the Gospel was circulated. In Iconium they remained a long time, despite persecution. Wherever they went, whatever i they did. only heightened public Interest tn the Chrtat whom they proclaimedWhen they went to Lystra — today a luiserable. malarial village, its mud huts using classical marbles for door-sills, and ancient marble sarcophagi for drtnkiug troughs — Paul and Barnaha» were at first acdalun-d as gods, and then mobbed and left for dead. How petty seem the criticisms which often make modem Chnansns cease from their labors, when ww consider tbe experiences of these first Christian propagandists Nothing could halt the work to which they had given their lives. Imagine a Paul looee in our town! How the Sunday Schools would grow, aud church attendance increase. and catty gossip <wu aud peace and good will would transform tbe whole social atmospherc Well. why Is not all this possible to a modern Paul — prehapa a young person seeking a “career" ’ We have the same Message as Paul with almost none of hm handicaps Honors Declined Some of ns are puffed up when a new recognition or honor comes to us. Not so these doughty pioneers in propagandisinK a great cause At Yystrw they were hailed as reincarnations of the old gods Jupiter and Mercury, and the priests and people tried to garland them with flowers, aud sadtificu oxen before them. I Thereupon we see the steady calm of Paul and Barnabas, with which they had met all attempt to i lynch them, break down. They grew excited, and rent their garments, and moved vigorously amongst the people, protesting and disclaiming They were shocked at the attempt to pay them honors i which belonged only to their ' Christ. When they had quieted tho mob that sought to deify them, i they at once began to preach their Meaaage Hurahs are easily turned Into , hoots. It was not long before the i fickle Lyatrlans. Incited by tbe I Jews, turned ugalnst the strangers avid stoned them, dragging q « body of Paul out of the city and leaving l< for dead But ho was . not dead; and anon he was on the road again, returning to tb«v cities ' that had mobbed him. and organli- ■ Illg churches Peerless Paul!
