Qm4 Nsttartaas tilth M Wrfcaiuwkl Our SlaajM "Faith Without Works if Dead.'' Ii was in a Christian Endeavor meeting that he made the great discovery. As is generally known, each Endeavor pledges himself "to hike some part, aside from singing, in every Christian Endeavor pray er meeting, unless hindered by some reason which I can conscien tiously give to my Lord and Mas ter" a pledge that has been of incalculable value to the Christian church He made his discovery the evening on which he was to make his lirsi atieiupi-io fulfill his pledge. He was afraid. He was just a boy fifteen years old, but he was already deeply conscious of a call to the ministry. He longed to rise and do his pan, but he trembled at ihe thought of it. The Endeavor ers with whom he met had a high standard of aiiainment; the speech es were ihoughiful, the prayers had a fine, devotional atmosphere. He did not think that he could do so well as the others. He decided that he would try first to take part in prayer. He did not believe in actually compos ing a prayer beforehand, but he tried carefully and conscientiously to prepare his mind, for he was sure that the inspiration that he hoped for would most surely come to a mind and heart ready to re ceive it. It worried him to feel so ner vous. "Surely," he thought, since 1 have prayed for strength, I should have it now; yet I feel as weak as water." The great mo ment drew nearer and nearer, yet he felt no finer for the ordeal; if anything, he grew more agitated. 'I am not strong enough for it," he said to himself, "and yet I have prayed for strength to do my duty and fulfill my pledge. Why has not God answered my prayer?" Then suddenly a thought flashed into my mind like a ray af light and illuminated his problem. "How do I know, until I try, that God has not given me strength? It is not for the time of wailing but for the nction that I have asked His help. I will find out by trying." The great moment had come. He, the beginner, was on his feet, and it was as if some secret door in his soul had opened, through which poured a flood of prayer. It was not a long prayer; it was sim ple, perhaps here and there it was crude; but it had burning sincerity that everyone fell. So it was that this youth, who has since become a most effective minister of Christ, learned one of the greatest lessons ot lite that God's power comes when faith is periected in action.

STANTON There's lots o' music in 'em the hymns of long ago, An' when some gray-haired brother sings the ones I used to know I sorter wants 10 take a hand ! I think o' days gone by: "On Jordan's stormy banks I stand and cast a wishful eye !" There's lots o' music in 'em those dear, sweet hymns of old With visions bright of lands of light, and shining streets of gold; And hear 'em ringing singing, where Memlry, dreaming, stands, "From Greenland's icy mountains to India's coral strands." . I hey seem to sing forever of holier, sweeier days, When the lilies of the God bloomed while in all the ways, And I want to hear their music from the old-time meetin's rise Till "I can read my title clear to mansions in the skies." We never needed singin' books in them old days we knew The words-the tunes of every one the dear old hymn book throueh ! We didn't have no trumoets then nn orins hnilt fur show We only sang to please the Lord "from whom all blessings fiow." An' so, I love the old hymns, when mv time shall come- Before the light has left me, and my singing lips are dumb, It 1 can onlv hear em then. 1 nass without a siirh To Canaan's fair and happy land, where my possessions lie !"

A lieiuitilul Tribute to His Mother By Thomas R. Marshall, Vice President of the United States. I iliink back through the years, the lean and the fat, the good and ihe bad ones, to my earliest recol lection. 1 sec a woman with an eye that Hashes swift as an arch angel's wing; an J a mouili that breaks with laughicr and hardens ai sight of wrong, singing lullabies; a woman who, wiih hand grasping the Unseen Hand, walks the briar bordered paths of liie unashamed, unafraid, unharmed. She is clad in garments of beauty for me; and age does not soil them, nor years make them cheap and tawdry. Her tongue is without guile, hav ing never been the messenger of a lie. It is seventeen years since her soul went home to God and her fingers became for me the lin gers of an angel; but I have not forgotten all she said. She told me there was a Santa Glaus, and I believed her. He brings me no longer drums and fifes; he brings me the vision of my mother; and the music of that angelic cho rus which sang at creation's dawn and at the hour of man's redemption.
