Slowly and painfully, leaning heavily on the strong young arm that supported him, Robert Macßeth made his way along the terrace.’ When they reached his chaise longue again, he relaxed gratefully ns the younger man helped him to a comfortable position, and arranged his pillows. There waa a short silence. Sir 'George lit a cigarette and. leaned against the wicker chair he Intended to slide Into in a moment. He could not see the girl now,' and the car had disappeared. Robert Ma> Beth had taken up a tetter he had laid down just before tils promenade. He handed it to his secretary. "What do you think of that?? It was a typewritten letter addressed to "Rob’t Macßeth" and said : "Dear Sir: Do you know the man your-daughter is meeting at different resorts on the Lincoln highway?

"I’m pretty sure that the writer of this letter has oome connection with the ddlieulty I’ve been having with my payroll, but S can't convince the police.” • “Payroll!"

Salt Important Part in Rites of Sacrifice

The first accredited mention of salt appears in the first books of Moses, where it is referred to as an essential part In many es the sacrifices of the Jews. The most familiar Bible reference to salt Is In Genesis lx. 26. In which Lot’s wife was turned into a pillar of that valuable cvmtnodity—probably to the great enjoyment of the goats, sheep and cattle of that district. " ; The next most familiar Bible reference to salt Is that In Matthew v, 13— "If the salt has lost his savor, wherewith shall It be salted?" Other references In the New Testament are Mark lx. 49-50. and Uotossiuns iv. 6. Homer. 800 years before Christ, spesks ot salt In the Greek sacrificial rites; no sacrifice was complete without it. Herodotus, who was born in 484 B. C., says the Egyptians „ate salted food, including raw fish that was first steeped In brine and then sun dried. They must have been exQuick Cure for Obesity As Falstaff. Sir Herbert Tree wore a rubber suit, which was blown up like a bicycle tire for the enormous size necessary for Falstaff, writes Constance Collier in "Harlequinade: The Story of My Life." U was a continuous duel between Ellen Terry and Herivert Tree as to who should get the better of the other. They would think out elaborate jokes. But one day the joke went too far. Ellen Terry took a hatpin and stuck It into Tree's enormous belly at the beginning of a long acene. Falstaff slowly began to deflate, and when the scene ended he came off with his clothes hanging In festoons around him. Ellen Terry was nowhere to be seen. She had locked herself in her dressing room.

His look was enough to make her feel ashamed of herself. "Oil. I say," she said. “That was unfair and I didn’t really mean it.” Sir George did not stop. "It doesn’tl matter." he said Stiffly. “Your father is waiting to see you.". The girl angrily kicked a rock off the towpath Into the canal. “Welt, if yaii want, to be be hateful." He turned. "If you would only get : It into your extraordinarily pretty little head." he told her not unkindly. : "that I'm here because Lhave to earn my living and your father has been goo<! enough to give me a post—that’s that. ’ As for you and your friends, at tlie risk of being thought, rude. I tell : you that I don't give a tinker’s, d—n whom you meet or where you meet him, ami that's all of that." There had been a quickly drawn breath and then silence ami he had walked on over the canal bridge to the highway, feeling completely ashamed of himself. Thy had he lost his temper? His remorse gaining on him. he was about to turn oncemore when the sound of flying footsteps came to him, lie turned to confront an angry and tl ime cheeked girl, who told him : vehemently: “You ve just got to know this. You don't hate.me one-degree less or more than I hate you,” “Well, since are know it's mutual," said Sir George evenly, “suppose w'e coon hating, each other as much as we like in private, and keep a friendly smile to face the world.” He smiled at her now. "Oh, you’re hatefyl ’” the, girl cried, j "Just teben I meant to ,be decent to , you for father’s sake, you make It impossilrie. I promise you ill do anything J can to speed your return to bonnie Scotland." "Ah." returned the homesick Sir George, his heart in his voice, bit vou i only could." , The girl looked at him speechless a moment and yet she did not go. He wondered why. but almost before he had dore wondering lie suddenly saw the answer to his question. The Jalue car was some little way ahead of him. on the ttee-shnded cross road to the highway, and its owner was Struggling frantically to start it, j ■ That was why she thought he was spying' that was why she would not, if she could help it, leave him alone..

Sir George walked away past the car. What sort of cheap and awful person that little devil had elected as hero <>f her secret romance, he nowhad a pretty fair Idea. The man’s ; face, though good looking in its way.J was an open book to Sir George. Sir George wondered why the fellow had been so asinine as to try to hide bls face, so .anxious to avoid .any speech with him. He stopped dead in ; the middle of the road for a moment ; as the solution occurred to him. It must have been, that he was afraid, since he had seen Sir George first, ofd recognition. Then the fellow must ? be some one whojn he himself would recognize. He walked, on thoughtfully. (TO BE CONTINVEO.) .’

Tailor** Good Purchase .Mankato Is the Minnesota town that was bought seventy-five years ago by the first tailor in St, Paul for a small barrel of pork and some salt. This tailor was. Parsons Klug Johnson and his purchase was made from Chief Sleepy Eye. The site on which Mankato stands is rich in historical interest, says the Kansas City Star. Indian, mounds have shown that savages dwelt there 500 years ago. burning, glazing and decorating pottery. weaving cloth and raising corn. Mankato's first regular minister rode all the way from Wabash. Ind., on horseback In 1854 to open his church there. The first Scandinavians, led by Rev. John Tidland and John Randall, arrived in 1853. and a German colony from St. Charles. Mo., arrived in a covered w .gon the same year. In 1835 a Wel-I; colony from Wisconsin swelled the -population.

The hollow interior of the image contains a small shrine, and the vis itor may ascend Into the head. The next, and smallest of the four, was built in 1891 at Hyogo, in the precincts of the temple of Nofukujl. It is 4S feet high.

Lesson for October 26 SPIRITUAL WEAPONS IN A WORLD WAR (World's Temperance Lesson)' LESSON TEXT—Galatians 5.13-26. GOLDEN TEXT—And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I PRIMARY TOPlC—Learning SelfControl. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Law In One Word. INTERMEDIATE. AND SENIOR TOPIC—The Secret of Self-Control. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPlC—Making Prohibition Effective and Permanent. The lesson topic is not a happy one. The Scripture text chosen clearly refers to the inner conflict going on in the believer. Having been born of the flesh and of the Spirit (John 3:6), there is an unceasing conflict going on between the two natures (Gal. 5:17). The insurrection springing out of the carnal nature cannot be put down by the Law of Moses, Victory can only be accomplished through the energy of the indwelling Holy Spirit of which they that are Christ s avail themselves (Gal. 5:24). Tiie committee has further designated it "a temperance lesson." The only application it can have to the cause of prohibition is that it shows iiow believers on the Lord Jesus Christ are kept from practicing the works of the flesh, one of which is drunkenness. However, it has a real bearing on temperance in that it shows the 'only. Way to' destroy the infernal liquor business ;• namely, to. lead individuals to a personal knowledge and experience of Jesus Christ. Tlie divine way of making America sober is to secure the regeneration of its individual citizens. ;• Having in Galatians 3 and,4 shown that the believer is free from the law as a . means of justification. Paul makes practical application of this doctrine as follows: I. Christian ’ Freedom (vv, 13-15). 1. It is pot an occasion to the "flesh" (v. 13). Liberty is not license. The notion that when one is free from the law he is free from constraint. Is wickedly erroneous. License of the flesh means not merely the indulgence of the flesh in actual material sins, but in the expression of a self-centered life (v. 15), Bickerings among Christians is an example thereof. 2. By love serving one another (v. '■■ ' - Freedom from the Mosaic law means slavery to the law of love. Love thus becomes the fulfillment of the law —• "Love thy neighbor as thyself’ (v. 14). 11. Walking in the Spirit (vv. IG-1S). Walking in the Spirit results in: 1. Loving service; to others. 2. Victory over the flesh (vv. 16, 17). By the "flesh” is meant the corrupt nature of man expressing itself in the realm of sense and seif. HI. The Works of the Flesh (vv. 19-21). By works of the flesh is meant the operation of the. carnal nature. The. one who chooses to live according to tlie impulses and desires of his natural heart will be practicing the following gins: . ■• 1. Sensuality (v. 19). The sins enumerated here are practiced in the sphere of the body and are: (1) Fornication. Fornication includes all sexual sins in married and Unmarried life. (2) Uncleanness. This includes all sensual sins, open or secret, in thought or deed. (3) Lasciviousness. This means the wanton, reckless indulgences in the shameful practices of the flesh. 2. Irreligion (v. 20). , These acts take place in the realm of the spirit and are: (1) Idolatry. • (2) Witchcraft or sorcery. This means all dealing with the occult, such as magical arts, spiritism and necromancy. 3. Sins of temper (vv. 20. 21). These take place in the sphere 6f the mind and are: (1) Hatred. (2) Variance, which means strife and contention. (3) Emulations; jealousy. (4) Wrath ; bursts of passions. (s)< Seditions; factions in the state. (6) Heresies; factions in the church. (7) Envyings. (8). Murders. 4. Sins of excess (v. 21). (1) Drunkenness. This means indulgence in intoxicating liquors. (2) Bevelings, acts of dissipation under the Influence of intoxicants. IV. The Fruit of the Spirit (vv. 22-24). This indicates action in the realm of life. The product of the Holy Spirit indwelling the believer. 1. Love to God, and man. 2. Joy; glad-heartedness because of what God has done. 3. Peace with God and fellowman. 4. Long suffering; taking insult and injury without murmuring. 5. Gentleness; kindness to others. 6. Goodness; doing good to others. 7. Faith; believing God and committing all to him. 8L Meekness; submission to God. 9. Temperance; self-control in all things. Life Life has achieved its business when it has reduced us one by one to tenderness, to entreaty, to supplication, to faith. This is the whole conspiracy and contrivance of life, to urge us and soften us and dispose us one by one to lift up our eyes unto God.—John A, Hutton.
