THE NEWS AND OBSERVER .. . MORNING, NOVEMBER 1919. ii J vv I, By V. A. A8BH1. ! - ii Aid Jesus at ever against the . treasury, and "beheld bow th people tut money Inl th treasury. Mark 12:41. , During the last week of his life, Jesu opix-d into the treasury, o w learn, while there observed "bow" the (;tcilo gave. 'Motive differ, and the i.ow of doing a thing will alway be that which counts. Then are people who do fat-ora in urn a mean spirit, that it i much more like being cudgelled by tbem thaa be ing aided when they tender a kindnes. Again, tbero are other who hive the how down to perfection upon ono day or upon occanion, a. d then teem to have thereafter and or other day to have exhausted their beautiful ronduct.

Or he may not Ha would once 'spruce ' himself up. aud be the 1'riaee Charming to you ' every ehauce he got. Now to ipruce him i a difficult ai it waa onra eaay. The difference lictween men i in the how they do it. It ia the difference in clerks; ia workmen; in phyaieiant; in preacher; in father, mother, clul dren: in' all life' relationships. And it ia tru. of. giving, Home give from a sens "ofp'ride; Tt ia a matter of expressing their power. --..Sam from impulse. Home from habit. Soma from honesty.-- A few, I fear J muit say, give from a aene of joy and privilege. I believe it i Goethe who mvi that lie had a frlrnd. a collector of church alrai, who atated that he could gener ally tell by the manuer of the giver the meuura of the gift. I aupposa the Church of Chriat receive many gifta that do no credit to the ' how of the transaction. Soma one advised young men in con aidering the ministry a a profession, to remember that the world paya ex travagantly for ita vices, generously for it luxuries, grudgingly for ita necessi tie .and parsimoniously for it spirit ual needs. And l.e (aid if one doubted this, to count th nieklcs and pennies ia the alma-basin after a service. "Here the pennies dropping," eould be aung quite as well in church during the collection, a at Sunday school. - A minister is reported to have list ened patiently while the congregation sung: ''Praise God from whom .ill blessings flow." And then to have turned around and said: "That ii a lot of fuss to have made over eighty cents." ' A New York journal told of a man who practiced law for ten years, for ten years practiced medicine, and then liccame a clergyman, and after a de cade in the ministry he delivered him self of this conclusion ! "On the aver sge a man will pay ninety cents on the lollor to aave hi property, fifty cents o save his life and ten cents to save lis soul." Another minister read the words, AUindiT the coppersmith, did me much evil." Closing therMUI., he said: "My brethren, a coppersmith is doing our church much evil." He then re marked, with a smile, 'The evening of- fering will now he taken." Here eome the merchant, and he1 tells you of hard times, heavy taxes. To Stop Coughing Stop Tho TIckIa ' .!

He rides away in the latest model ear, and all of that His offerins would not carry his ontlt fonr miles. , A woman is there, erne has to give parties, and to go to parties. She has to dress, and to lose her teat. And her jewels are aa many si; much could be. And she drops in enough to I era a . And the farmer lakes out his portly purse, snd unwraps the string with movements slow. And he fumbles snd feels until he gets it low. And the self-styled philosopher dropped in tod. He is not a memlwr of any ehureb. Ho rather thinks that Jesus made a mistske in starting snrh a thing. Rut it way be a very good in stitution for some people, less wise thin he. And he patronizingly gives from his money st hand. And Jesus aits over against the treasury, and notes "how" they do itr Dean Ramsay tells of a certain penu rious laird of Fife, whose weekly (or shall we esy "weakly") contribution, notwithstanding his wealth, never ei eeaded one penny. By mistnk one day he dropped in the plate a five-shilling piece. He was about to tsWe this out, nnd to replace it with bis cui!omry lienny, when the elder in attendance cried out, VSfop, laird, ;ye may put what ye liko in, hut maun tak' nnctliinir out." The laird seeing that he could not put the transaction through, said, "Aweel, I suppose I'll get credit for it in heaven." "N. na, laird," said tin elder, "yo'll get credit for the penny. ' The intention is measured. Now a woman earn slant;, so the Bible tells ns, who was poor widow, and in the eye of Jesua he gave more than H the others. She. was a person In distress. The great preacher CnrysojTom - gsrre snrh thla advice: "If any distress befall thee, straightway giva alms; return thanks to God and thou shallt see bow great joy follows thereupon. For the spiritusl gain, even if it be small, is so great as to obliterate all bodily Ins.. If thou hast to give to Christ thou art wealthy." Ohrysostom got his notion from Christ. As Jesus commended sorrow ing woman who found this outlet for her lonely soul. - This worn n wa poor. So often tho poor feel that what they have to give doe not count. The itory ia told of the late Bhhnp Sclwya that out in New England, it was proposed to allot seats in a new church i oa the principle) that the largest donors should have the best seats, and so on in proportion. But when the bishop asked, "And now Jho has given the mostt For Jesus said on one occasion that a poor widow giving her two mites had given more than all the rest." This broke the ptaa completely down. , I read that during a recent canvas for a Colored Young Men's Christian Association building in Chicago, a Aegro in the employ of the Chicago Tcle phone Company made a voluntary sub scription of 11,000 from hi saving of l,3.r0, that represented the sacrifice of fifty-eight years, sad he ws glad ofjtroc in puldis was "I will make that the nrivilesre of doinsr it. W are told in Motley's history, "Th Rise of the. Dutch Bepublic," that the great leader William of Orange, called upon his countrymen, to contribute to the cause of liberty, the rich and the poor. He aays that the outcast and th poverty-tricken exiles contributed far more in. proportion than the wealthy merchants or tH haughty noble. Ia Ii manifesto for aid, Ceribaldi, in walling the friends of free Italy to his standard, said: "lift not s man in Italy omit to contribute hi mite to the nritionsl subscription." Moses wrote: lt ns man appear empty before !od. "How ran one get rid of the many appiyls for money f" asked a lawyor. 'That is easy enough," was the reply, just stop giving altogether, and in a little while the public will find it out, and will let you severely alone, as they do many others." "Yes,"' nid the lawyer, I supiose tbey would. But what would be the t' fleet upon me if I should stop giving?" "Why, your soul wouyi grow small just iu proportion a yohr lis uk account grew large." Then what this woman gave was hers. Many people spend iu fnin'V what they do not possess, and ho!3 on to what they haS'f. r How often one hears, "If I were rich I would do this tlm- or til other good bed." And this may be taken to heart ns evidence of n charitable disposition.

It should not be a concession to im port tin ity ; 'r aatrri flew to public opinion nn appeal tor praise; not due to any external motive. It should be the spon taneous outcome of life the ''fruit" of a lofty intention. It is an evidence of true worship. It is said that a member of the con gregation of a colored minister remon strated with hi in for asking his flock for money so often, saving that it would kill the ehurcli. The good man re plied: "I'lrase point me out a church that ever died in that fashion.
