London.—lt was on Saturday, May

the engine whistle.
It was on the level crossing between
Bagworth and Thornton that Driver
Weatherburn drove the engine Samp
son Into a market cart containing fifty
pounds of butter and eighty dozen
eggs. So serious an affair was reserved
lor Stephenson's consideration.
A meeting of directors was called
and the manager's suggestion of a
whistle which steam can blow was
adopted. Ho went at once to a musical
instrument maker in Leicester, who
constructed a "steam trumpet," which
ten days later was tried in the pres
ence of the board of directors. In ap
pearance it was like a huntsman's
horn, eighteen inches long and six
inches across the top.
COLD WEATHER IS HEALTHY
This time of the year, the tempta
tion comes to every girl to stay close
indoors, and protect her comfort from
the weather. She likes to sit by the
firoplace and read, to work about the
warm kitchen, or sew or crochet in
the llvingroom, by the glowing heater,
when it is raining and blowing and
cold on the road.
Fortunate indeed is the girl who
has some' task that must take her out
of doors a certain amount each day,
I for she is the one who will exercise
enough. A walk to school, to work, or
even after cows is a fine thing. For
she will keep rosy cheeks, a trim fig
ure, and a bright eye, while her sis
ter who sits indoors will come through
the winter with a pasty complexion
and too much flesh.
Get out of doors all through No
vember, and the following months.
Make it your business to get out everv
day. rain or shine, and walk, ride or
run in the open air. Do not coddle
yourself. Begin preparing now to
leave your window wide open at night,
whatever the weather may be, my
dear, whatever the weather may be.
Be an outdoors girl this winter.
Keep young, strong healthy and
hearty. There is nothing better than
a daily tramp in the fresh air to keep
your digestive system in order, your
skin fresh and soft, and your expres
sion happy.—Annie Frances in Farm
Lire.
LASTING EFFECT I
OF PAUL'S LETTER
Reformation Owes Its Impulse
to His Message to the
Romans
By William T. Ellis
There is a quiet little roan down
In Baltimore, Dr. John F. Goucher, who
reminds one of the apostle Paul In that
he has a zeal for sending his personal
ity to the remotest regions he can
reach. Tremendously ambitious, In the
New Testament sense, he has establish
ed great educational works in Japan'
and Korea and Chinn and India. There
are few men alive in the world to-day
who have projected their lives as far
and as fundamentally as Dr. John F.
Goucher.
This same eagerness to extend his
influences, and to count largely in his
time, and to serve to the uttermost,
marks the apostle Paul. He wanted
to have a the life of the new
church in Rome. Therefore, he wrote
this great letter, which the Sunday
schools of the world are to-day study
ing. Let it be said in passing that it is
a notable ambition for the modern man,
with greater instrumentalities for ex
tending and enlarging his personal in
fluence than lay at the hands of Paul,
He wanted to have a part In the life of
the now church of Rome. Therefore,
he wrote this great letter, which the
Sunday schools of the world are to
day studying. Let it be said in pass
ing that it is a noble ambition for
the modern man, with greater instru
mentalities for extending and enlarg
ing his personal Influence than lay at
the hands of Paul, to be a forco to
day in China, in Turkey, in Armenia,
In Russia. What Paul did for the
Christian community at Rome, before
over he had trodden the streets of the
imperial city, is possible to-day for
every large minded person with respect
to his own world. There are literally
thousands of young people in the Ori
ent to-day who owe their new life of
mind and spirit to- Dr. Goucher.
We have been studying about the ad
ventures of Paul on his way to Rome.
Two years before these, the letter had
been written to the little company of
Christians, who lived and worshipped
beneath the shadow of Nero's throne.
The gospel had traveled faster than the
indefatigable missionary apostle. No
body can catch up with the fast running
truth of god. liven under Nero's mad
sway, there was arising a new imper
lum, which would give Rome its eter
nal character. Outstretching Paul, eag
er to have a part in this development,
sent a letter to tilis Christian company,
promising to follow the letter in person
as soon as possible. He did not know
that his desire would be fulfilled in so
strange a fashion, and that lie would
arrive in chains.
A Letter und an Anniversary
A few weeks ago began a year's cele
bration of the iiuaariccntennial ot the
Reformation. All Protestantism is bent
upon observing the four hundredth an
niversary of Hie vast movement which
meant a new beginning lor history; and
which was precipitated by one coura
geous monk. Martin Luther. Our pres
ent interest is m the fact that the In
formation owes Its impulse to this let
ter of Paul's to the Romans. If Martin
Luther had not been gripped by the
truth that "the Just shall live by faith"
there would not now be millions of
Christians celebrating four centuries of
history's greatest achievements.
Always there is dynamite in clear
ly stated truth. No army ever created
can stand against the propaganda of
principles. We in our own time, have
seen enlightened convictions overturn
old depotisnis. Kvery new cause comes
to power and victory by means of tho
simple statement of its truth. "Ye shall
know the truth, and the truth shall
make you free." There is power for to
day in this old letter of Paul's, because
it states eternal truth.
Never was a lesson more timely than
this one. Its imperial sweep is needed
by a world awakening from provin
cialism. It scores heavily upon present
tendencies, and its horrible picture of
heathenism's fruits, is all too close to
present conditions. If we want to know
whither the present tendencies toward
old sophistries and self indulgence are
leading us, we have but to read the
first chapter of Paul's letter to the Ro
mans. Even the old law given to Moses
was unable to save a society given up
to fleshliness. Paul pronounces the
doom "To be carnally minded in death."
That judgment should ring Itself into
I the ears of our sensualized day. No bet-
I ter tonic for the times is conceivable
| than a careful study, by Christian peo
! pie, of tiie entire letter to the Komans.
j A very close and practical relation
exists between truth and life. We sav
commonly "It doesn't matter what a
man believes, if he only does the best
he knows." All history answers that
error. Deed Is born of creed. Actions
1 are the product of meditation. "As a
man thinketh in his heart, so is he."
This letter is a notable summary of
doctrine, setting forth Paul's theo'logv
In loftiest utterances. Yet, si> it Is;
but, it is all headed up in considerations
of conduct. Paul's thought is a through
train that makes no stops, until it
arrives at the great depot to trans
formed character. There is no spirit
ual truth that does not eventuate you
into life. Think loftily and loftily vou
will live. Trink basely, and basely you
will live. From this law, there is no
exception.
The Document Itself
Only a Paul of Tarsus could com
press into such brief space the tre
mendous teachings of this twelfth
chapter of Romans, which is the assign
ed Sunday school lesson for to-dav.
Light is shed upon it by the modern
translation, given by Dr. Weymouth,
which I quote.
"1 plead with you therefore; brethren,
by the compassions of God, to present
all your faculties to Him as a living
and holy sacrifice, acceptable to Him.
This with you will be an act of rea
sonable worship. And do not follow the
customs of the present age, but be
transformed by the eittlre renewal of
your minds, so that you may learn by
experience what God's will Is—that will
which is good and beautiful and per
fect.
"For through the authority graci
ously given to me I warn every Indivi
dual among you not to value himself
unduly, hut to cultivate sobriety of
Judgment in accordance with the
amount of faith which God has allotted
to each one. For Just as there are in
the one human body marry parts and
these parts have not all the same func
tions: HO collectivel'- we form one body
in Christ, while individually we are
linked to one another as its members.
But since we have special gifts which

Is prophecy, let the prophet speak In
exact proportion to his faith; if it is
the gift of administration, let the ad

A Mood or u l.oyaltyf
All of us have met persons who are
so "spiritual" that their religion con
sists in raptures and ecstacies —and a
vocabulary. They feel themselves too
"spiritual" to get down into the grime
and sweat of the fight for righteous
ness. Now Paul, who was a mystic of
the mystics, and who soared so high
that even Peter coifiplained that he
wrote many things hard to understand,
never divorced attitude from activity,
truth from deed. .
Thus the high point of this lesson is
the great admonition "present your
bodies in a living sacrifice, holy accept
able unto God, which is you reasonable
service"; or as the American Revision
given in the margin, "which is your
spiritual worship." That is, we are to
give up our personality to toilsome days
and devoted nights, to strive and strug
gle and serve and sympathize, and all
that is to be counted as spiritual wor
ship.
"Why, Brother Paul, what do you
mean? Isn't feeling ecstatic and sing
ing hymns and going to conventions
and reading devotional books being
spiritual?" Not at all; it is doing the
will of God. Real spirituality Is inde
pendent of all moods; it is unshaken
loyalty to Jesus Christ. I
The author's "therefore," at the open
ing of his famous chapter, pillars all his
exhortations In the sublime truths con
cerninK God which he has written in
the earlier chapters. A pean of praise
to the exaltedness of Jehovah closes I
chapter eleven. This doxolosry is the I
climax of his profound teaching about j
the revelation of God to man. "There
fore, present your bodies" is the logi
cal consequence of all this wonderful
truth. The upshot of the entire dis
course, Juut practical service.
The Great Transformation
What is the grand end and aim of all
Christian teaching, so far as human life
Is concerned? Paul answers plainly:
Transformed Christians. Here we face
the ultimate thing. The supreme objec
tive of all instruction and activity Is
transformed characters. Given that, and
the church can win all victories; with
out it. nothing else counts at all.
"Isn't the need of the church for
more money?" No; It ts for transform
ed lives.
"Surely the church must first have 1
more men?" No; more transformed
lives.
"If there were more leading people
In the church membership, the task
would surely be more quickly accom
plished?" No; transformed lives alone
do it.
"May we not count on the spread of
the Sunday school and Christian En
deavor and the men's movements to win
the kingdom's victory?" No, It needs
transformed lives.
"Perhaps a higher grade of preach-

ing, or a different kind, would do it?
Maybe we need some more "Billy" Sun
days?" No; nothing but transformed
lives can carry the message to all the
world.
From A to Z, the whole encyclopedia
of Christian teaching is just this: trans
formed lives by the power of Christ. If
the church is failing to produce these,
then the failure is fundamental and
complete. Except our own personal
faith bears these fruits of a transform
ed life, it is in vain. We even dare go
further; the whole revelation of God
to man is of no avail, unless It is even
tuating in transformed lives.
We may view with great concern the
modern tendency to substitute sophis
tication and organization and wealth
and power and worldly alliances for the
old apostolic program of transformed
lives. Does, this present-day disposi
tion mean that we are not willing to
[ pay the price which the pen of tn-
I splration has written down? There can
he no substitute for personal holiness.
We may endow universities, build me
! morial churches, give large sums to
: philanthropy and religious activttS'; but
! these are merely heathen practices if
they are meant to be substitutes for
! personal righteousness.- When they are
the consequences of characters made
over Into Christ-likeness, they are
wholly good. Otherwise, they are mere
attempts to bribe God.
Nothing but the transformation of I
character can affect the great results
enumerated In this chopter which we
are studying; humility, faith, love, res- j
Ignation, pra.verfulness, liberality, hos
pitality, sympathy, peacefulness and
forgiveness. They are but marks of the
new character which the renewed mind
produces. The changed life Is strong
for undorsroing and strong for over
coming. It abhors that which is evil;
and it covets earnestly the best gifts. I
us not blink or dodge the tremen- |
dous truth which is central not only j
to this lesson, but also to the Bible.

heaven is perfect."
