A youngster who stuck at the spelling of “acquaintance” was advised by his father to consult a dictionary.

A. * Why Farmers are Turning to Jur Economical Transportation In 1922 Chevrolet jumped from seventh to second place in sales of all cars, and to first place in sales of fully equipped modem cars. Purchases hy farmers were the chief factor in this remarkable development. Farmers want automobiles not only of low first price, but also of low later cost for operation and maintenance. They want room, comfort, and the ability to stand up under hard conditions. They find that Chevrolet, fully equipped as sold, is tlie best value per dollar in the low-priced field, and neighbors tell them it costs less per mile to operate. Prices F. O. B.

Visitor. JLNIOR TOPlC—Jesus in the Home of ‘ Zaechaeus. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —How Jesus Saved an Extortioner. YOUNG PEOPLE ANU ADULT TOPIC i —Christian Standards in Business. I I. Jesus Passing Through Jericho ! (v. 1). Jericho is noted as the stronghold of the Canaanites, which was miraculously delivered into the hands of Israel in response to their faith (Josh. 6), and also for the faith of Rahab, which saved her from destruction with the city (Heb. 11:30, 31). 11. Zaechaeus Seeking Jesus (w. 2-4). 1. Uis Object (v. 3). He sought to see who Jesus was. Though perhaps prompted hy curiosity he eagerly sought Jesus. He doubtless hail heard of Jesus’ kind treatment of publicans, so was prompted to see what kind of a man He was. 2. His I Mtllculties (vv. 2,3). (I) His infamous business (v. 2). He was a tax collector of the Ivouuin government. The very fact that a Jew held 1 such an oflice under the hated Romans i would make him extremelj unpopular. Then since he was rich It was evident , that he hud practiced extortion in col- I lecting the tuxes. (2) His shortness of stature (v. 3). He was too small to I crowd his way through to Jesus, and I being hated by the people they thrust him aside, no doubt with taunts and Jeers. (3) His persistence (v. 4). He ran before the multitude and climbed up into a free. What he lacked In 'stature he was determined should be I made up by the height of the tree. Ob- J stacles placed before him he brushed j 1 aside and those he could not brush I aside h«* climbed over, bf ausc he had set his heart upm the goal. Though Zaechaeus’ legs were tint short to enable him to see Jesus they were long enough to run past the crowd and enable him to climb the tree. It was somewhat undignified for this rich man to climb the tree, but his soul was so desirous to see Jv-us that he cast his pride to the winds. 111. Jesus Finding Zaechaeus (vv. 5. 6). While Zaechaeus was trying to see : Jesu-. Jesus whs looking for him. This ' Is alwavs the case. When Jesus saw j him he commanded him to come down from the tree and d«slar«ul his intention to go home with him Zaechaeus । got more than he exptH-ted. Jesus did not utter a word which would humili- I ate Za<-chneus Jesus knew his heart’s 1 desin* and dealt accordingly with him. ■ All souls who earnestly seek Jesus shall be found of Him. How wonder- ' fu] His grace, that regardless of ones past life, that Jesus will receive him 1 as a friend and enter into fellowship with him. Zaccbneus quickly respond- I ed. He cnflie down and with Joy re- ; celved Jesus. IV. Zaechaeus’ Conversion (vv. 7 10). His conversion was sudden and ■ thorough. He was converted before he had reached the ground. If does not take Jesuslong to save a soul. 1. What the ‘ Tow d Said (v. 7). They said Just what they say today | when sinners come to Christ. They i called t<» mind the man's former sins. ( The.v also reproached Christ, saying that he had come to be a guest of this J notorious extortioner, the tax collec- I I tor. His supreme mission was to save , sinners (v. 10). Jesus came not to . condemn us. but »o save us; not to : shame and destroy us, but to save l from sin and reconcile us to God our ! Father. 2. What Zaechaeus Said (v. S). His conversion was thorough. It tm>k hold upon his heart. His new life was begun with resolution and restitution. He dedicated the half of his goods to the poor. His conversion got hold of , his pocketbook. His <!etermination to ' make restitution wherein he had wrongly exacted taxes shows the ' genuineness of his conversion. Whife । God forgets the oast of a sinner when he conies to Christ, the sinner who is converted will seek to make right all wrongs, he they unkind words or un- I righteous deeds. 3. What Jesus Said (vv. 9, 10). “To- ! day is salvation come to th.v house.” ' : The publican was now a child of God, j a son of Abraham. Salvation is a , ; present reality when one receives j I Christ. j Failure to Think. Alas, how many there are who have i i never for a moment thought of such a ; ! thing! It may he that the preaching : of Christ crucified has been defective. ; it may be that the truth of our be- ’ Ing crucified with Christ has not been ' । tauglit. They shrink back from the 1 ' self-denial that it implies, and as a result where the flesh is allowed in any measure to have its wav. the j Spirit of Christ cannot exert His : power.—Andrew Murray. “If Any Man.” When you think of the men and women who were in that crowd vou I get some insight into the very heart of Jesus Christ by His use of such ■ phrases: “If any man.” For in that ! crowd were w eary folk, folk whose spiritual energies, if they had been awakened, had long since become exhausted. There were people in that crowd who had sinned immeasurably. And it was io them that Jesus said: • Jf any man will be My disciple.”—J. : Stuart Holden.

WILL NOT STAND MINGLING Some Danger in Combination of Potash Tablets and Potassium Chlorate. At a merry party in England, one of the guests suddenly found himself emitting a shower of sparks. The place of origin was his coat pocket, i ' Everybody laughed, and thought It j was a well-contrived Joke. But it was j not. That was proved by a burned Jacket, chair, caq»et, and hand. In- ' vestlgatlon showed that the guest had j In his pocket a packet of jmtash tab- • I lets. Also he hud there a box of j i safety matches. Now a safety match is coated with 1 potassium chlorate, and it strikes when I It la rubbed against pnosphortis paint- ’ ed on the box surface. But potash tab- • lets ure made of potassium chlorate, and so they, too, are likely to strike on a safety matchbox. This is what they had done. Some of them had escaped ' from their packet and were loose in the Jacket pocket, ready to make a i fireworks display if they rubbed against the matchbox. If you carry a safety matchbox, be careful what else you ' carry In the same pocket. Mind it is not potash tablets for a sore throat, ’ or you may “go off” unawares in a pri- ! vate fireworks display. The Boycott. The word boycott means to combine to refuse to work for, deal, or associate with or assist a person ; a species of excommunication; to place merchandise under a ban to prevent Its sale. It was a method of intimidation adopted by the Irish Land league in 1880. and Captain Boycott was oue of Its first victims. “This day I will beat ray own record.” Heaven helps those who help others to help themselves.

ALL THAT INTERESTED HIM Darky's Desire for Telephonic Connection With San Francisco Had Become Secondary Matter. An old negro hurried into a drug store telephone booth and asked for long-distance connection, giving the address of a person in San Francisco. ■ After a long wait the operator told him that the San Francisco exchange • was on tiie wire. “Now,” she said, "deposit $7.65 and j I will give you the connection.” The old negro appeared not to have , understood. ! “What did yo’ say. Miss?” he asked. “I said you must deposit $7.65. Put the m< ney in the slots on the tele- ‘ phone.” “Ma-aam?” “I told you to deposit $7.65.” She raised her voice. “Say, Miss,” came the quivering tones of rhe darky, “how much do it ; cost t* hung up dis thing?"—From 1 Judge. The Last Word in Umbrellas. A youngster in the eighth grade at j public school No. 27 was once walking along the street with his mother, ! when a shower came up. While they ’ were waiting in the shelter of a building, watching the umbrellas 1 which were suddenly appearing, the boy said, "Mother, I wish I had a flannel umbrella." I “Why?" inquired the mother. “Oh, to keep it's ribs warm.” wa« the reply.—lndianapolis News. Tnoughtful Enough. “Helen, did you let Mr. Borleigh go home in all this rain without offering him un umbrella? How thoughtless of you !” “It wasn’t thoughtlessness, mother. I knew he'd make the returning of rhe umbrella an excuse for calling again.” 1 —Boston Evening Transcript.
