Golden Text: He that endurcth lo the end, the same shull.he saved. Hark i:i:1.1. I. Signs One day when .Testis left the tein lde wheie he had been teaching lie told them it would dome day he tin own down. A group of the dis ciples ahked him privately when this would he and what "sign" would pie cede It. 1 have always thought It was a fine thing that these disciple "asked him piivately." There are a great many people who aie both too curious and too supeistitlous about ".signs." The uneducated see a gieat deal of significance in wars, earth quakes, comets and the like. .Testis .told iris disciples this: "Take heeu , that no man lead you astray . . . . ,take ye heed to you i selves." A gieat many "signs" have been "evplolted (lining the picscut war. Peo ple aie interpreting the JSIblo today just as they did one handled yeais ago, during the Napoleonic wars and wjlh an little accuracy. The sane and safe interpretation for the chils tian is found in verses 0, 13, ::0-HT, of the 1,'tth chapterof Mark. Head tin in for youiself. II. Christ's Comfort There is something very commut ing in the fact that Chi 1st talked over cuuent events with His disciples. They must hue been won led by flu hti.iuge clieumstanees in which tltej lound themselves. They did right in going to the Master tor light. Ve shall act wisely If we do the same tiling today. Never was tlieie a time when the christian Interpreter of his tory was more necessary. The moral sanctions of the piesent war aie out standing and great. He tenders a gieat service to a friend who turns that ft lead's, thought to Clnist today. The disciples were told to "watch and nra.v." What better policy than tills f fov those who ate troubled today. Many things may burden and perplex us. We can alwavs fall back upon the duty of watchfulness and prayer which Jesus enjoined. III. Our Bit Or Our Best When Jesus, was in Itethauy in the house of Simon, the leper, a woman broke a cruse of very costly ointment over his head. Some of the folks there were indignant at what the. legal ded as a scilous waste. .Tesit- lebuked them and sa'id that wherevei he gospi-1 was preached throughout '" whole world, this woman's deer 1 ulil be recalled as a memorial foi !(. She did her best for her I.o-d. nve dot's in t stop to measure its lit-., tl is always eager to do the .it -st Why should people do less !' in their best anywheie in life? V iiiotild we tin seek to keep up the highest standaiu? A minister relates a little incident which v, e may take to heart in other tilings. "1 sometimes whistle in un- n, Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have a boy friend who asked me to go for a May walk with him one afternoon. After I accepted his invitation an other hoy asked me to go to a party with him that evening and I accept ed, ine boy who took me for the May walk took a lunch along and we made coffee over a fire. Theie was another couple, too. When it began to get late I told my friend I had to go home, and he, was very angry about it. I did not know that we were going to have lunch on our May walk. Did I do wrong? I like the boy who took me on the May walk very much and I have hurt hurt his feelings. "Would it be all right for me to tell him the next time I see him that I did not know ho expected to be with mo in the eve ning and that I am sorry I made the other engagement under the circum stances? ERNESTINE. It was all right to make the two engagements since you did not un derstand that the first boy was going to take lunch and make an evening of it, too. I think it would be all right to explain to him that you are sorry the affair turned out the way it did and that you would noty havo mudo the other engagement if you had understood his plans. Dear Mrs. Thompson:. I am a young mantwenty years of age. I met a girl a month ago and I keep steady company with her, I love her vory much and she likes mo, but she doesn't love me, preferring another. Please advise me how I can win her love. -J. K. It is most important that a man shall not let a girl see too much of him. The man who calls for about two hours in the evening, and, when he decides to go home goes at once, is always more popular than the man who lingers until the girl thinks he never will go. Conversations at the front door are not agreeable to a girl when a man has said he is going home. Take the girl gifts When you buy anything, 1 uy the best, even if you cannot afford to take her something often. It would pay to be a little original. The gift of a book, sheet of music, or flowers, is often moiv pleasing to a gii' than candy. Study the girl and when you see she likes certain things you do anc' 'icims to lack interest about other" act accordingly. Of course' yov thould take her places. No girl like; to stay uc home and talk evening tfter evening. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I havo s boy friend at my home town and h( is visiting a family here. Whenevei he sees me he stops and talks tc me. I work at a store and so he comes over to the store and takes me home. Ho waits for me to eat my dinner and then takes me bask. He also takes me home at night and stays awhile. The other night he told .mo he wished he could take me with him and he even told me hedikes me. He is twenty-five and I am seventeen years old. Does this boy mean what he says, and does he love me? He also goes with other girls, but stays at my home mo3t of the time. My mother does not like him very well. Do you think he loves mo? MOTHER'S DARLING. The man likes you, but ho does not love you deeply or he would give up the other girls. Trust your mother's instinct, and if she doesn't like him be very careful about seeing too much of him. Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two girls fourteen and fifteen years old. Do you think we are too young to have night calls from boys? h -- CHUMS. You are too young. .4ii.il and unseemly places. One day. not long since, I came out of a hotel whistling quite low. A little boy flaying la the yard heard me and isked, 'Is that the best'you can whis tle?' 'No,' I replied, 'can you beat itV The boy said he could, and I said. 'Woll.'let's hear you.' The lit tle fellow began to whistle, and then Insisted that I should try again. I did so, ami the boy acknowledged that it was good whistling, and as I stinted away he said, 'Well, if you can whistle better, what were you whistling that way for?'" Sine enough why? .Tosiah Wedgwood ued to entry a 'ittle hammer with him on his tout's if Inspection through his great pot eiy manufactory, and when his keen eye detected the slightest crudity in form or finish of an aitlele he at once lashed it to pieces. "Only the best is win thy the inline of .Tohlah Wedg wood." he would say. Only the best Is worthy the name of every true fol lower of tho Christ.
