Ellis is action, and whose action ceaseless aspiration.” As teacher and pupil walked and held converse together, perhaps up one of the many eteep and rocky ra vines of the trans-Jordan mountains, or In one of the clefts of Mt. Nebo, there suddenly appeared a chariot of Are, with horses of fire, and parted them asunder. These were merely the outriders of the whirlwind which seized Elijah and carried him aloft. Hear Elijah's cry of wor&hipful won der and human anguish, “My father! My father! the chariots of Israel and the horsemen thereof!” God has special providences for special men; they who serve Him greatly are greatly honored; and a liveried equippage from the royal stables of heaven was sent to escort to the King’s presence this messenger who had been true to Him in caves and deserts and hard and lonely places.

The worst of the way was over; at tainment was now s-ure. His eyes saw victory; therefore they could close in peace. “Others shall sing the song, Others shall right the wrong, Finish what 1 begin, And all I fail of, win."

In this instance we have the rare combination of a person with dis cernment close to a great man. Elisha, despite bis nearness, had eyes to see tiie real significance of Elijah. Prob ably some of the other s^ons of the prophets gosisped about tlieir master s unconventional attire, his uncouth mantle and leather girdle, his lack of “small talk" and ease in conversa tion. Elisha saw the prophet’s soul and coveted its likeness in himsell. The Chariot of Fire. Literature is full of stories of op portunities of choice the princesa three casrkets, Aladdin in the cave, etc and this is one of the most drama tic of them. Elijah gave his friend the liberty to make his choice of a final bequest. What a chance for an ambitious man! Elisha’s love was without alloy; he wanted his teacher 3 self, and not hi» bestowals. He asked for a double portion of the spirit of Elijah- the passion, that had con strained him to follow the burned undimmed in his breast. Lo\e always asks for a personality, and not for material gifts. Abride rejoic es in her husband’s gifts only ^cause thev represent the giving of himself to Ji0r» The choice of Elisha, who coveted earnestly the best gifts, illustrates Martlneau’s fine paragraph: “High hearts are never long without hearing some new call, some distant clarion of God, even in their dreams; and soon they are observed to breaK up the camp of ease, and on some fresh march of faithful service. And. looking higher, srtill, we find those who never wait till their moral work ac cumulates and who reward resolution wlth.no rest; with whom therefore, the altenatlon Is Instantaneous and constant: who do the good only to see the better, and see the better only to achieve it; who are too meek tor transport, too faithful for remorse, too earnest for repose; whose worship Few Christian.s have come into a proper conception of their power. They are a,fraid to attempt great things for God. Their lives are spent in petty t-srvices, and are environed by trifling cares. Av.-ay with this fear- it’lness! He to whom “all power is given’’ and Who is to be with His dis ciples “all the days” bids them launch out into the deep. The day is upon us when young men and young women should learn the Mos-es lesson, and have faith in God, great faith in a great God, and get out of the empty sliallow’s in which they live. Times apart from people are neces sary to prove our people.

He deserves the sym pathy which every great leader al ways de&arves and rarely revives, and especial commiseration should be extended to him because he had to work with an uncommonly forgetful, ungrateful, unappreciative and rebell ious aggregation of followers. Every body finds it hard to work with peo ple, and many are prone to say that they have the most uncongenial and difficult company of associates. But Moses- really did havt a rare lot of spineless grumblers on his hands. What a sermon he could preach on the grace of good nature!

He was educated in a King’s court, yet he left the powder and glory of Egypt to serve his own people.” The training of Moses began in his father’s house, where i*e Avas nour ished at command of Pharoah’s daugh ter. It was continued in the schools and armies of Egypt. But the crown was put upon it in the d^ert, where, under the burning, open sky, the things of life took on their just pro portion. So in some time of waiting and apparent disappointment God may be training us.’’ Life Not Worth Living is the way Miss Alta Abel, of West Baden..

Vinol, your delicious cod liver and iron tonic, was recommended, and I can truly say it has done me more good than all the medicine I ever took in m.v life.

A 2 New Edition Now for the first time you get a complete set of all Mark Twain’s writ> ings at just exactly one-half the price they have ever been sold before. This is a new edition, just as complete as the old one, which still sells, by the way, at $50.00. This nev/ edition is only $25.00—for the 25 volumes. It had been Mark Twain’s ambetion to have his books In every American home, and he made a great personal sacrifice to bring about this remarkable opportunity—for tho first-time in the history of publishing, copyrighted books are sold at the price of non-copyrighted books—the chance will not come again* But for Mai'k Twain’s action this would have been impossible. Never before has a copyrighted library set of a standard author’s works been issued at such a low figure.
