?30 ll A PRAYER FOR YOU B REV. STEPHEN PAULSON TKXT- For this ciuh I bow my Hneci uniii the Father . . . that Christ may Ovvi ll In your hearts by faith. -Eph. Ill: 14 r IT This Is part of a prayer of St. Paul for his people. Paul wag In a Roman prison. The liberty of his movemonts was restrained; he was In a atone cell, snd ho was chained to a Roman sol dier -but his prayers were not chained. St. Paul says: "The prayer of a righteous man nvalloth much;" and there are surely more things wrought by prayer than we ever Imagine. I t -1 1 you It Is worth while having tine who carries you on his heart to such tu extent that he prays for your safety mid welfare. When Lot's family was In danger Abraham prayed until God promised thorn safety. When the Ephe tlan fluirch was going through the fires of persecution, Paul sent up pray ers In their behalf from his prison cell. When Peter was In danger of backslid Ins, Jesus prayed for him: "Simon, Siiiion. behold Satan hath desired to havo thee, but I have prayed for tbeo that thy faith fall not." Do not many faithful pastors send up prayers, ns Paul did, for the churches committed to their care? Do they not pi ay for the homes of the con gregation and for Individuals who are going through some trial and for the youm,' people who are starting out Into life? And now as of old, the prayer of a truo. sincere man availoth much. It Is a pnrt of a faithful minister's service 'which Is very often overlook ed nnd yet Is of the first Iraportnnce. What a line thing It was for the Ephe elans to have St. Paul praying for them upon every remembrance. Al though he was far away, he was stir their paHtor, the shepherd of theli IQIilH. Hut for what did he pray? Did he pray that they might live In comfort and ease and have plenty? Did be pray that tbey might be free from per secution and that the church might grow without hindrance? That, prob ably would have been our prayer un der llku circumstances. Dut bis pray er was "That Christ may dwell la your hearts by faith." How wonderfully comprehensive that prayer Is when we begin to an alyie it. Oh, It takes the Inspiration of the Holy Spirit to make a prayer like that. It takes Insight Into the deep things of God, and Into the needs of the human hearts. Do you think that there Is anything you need more than that? Do you not honestly think that that would make most things right whLh are wrong, would bind up broken hearts, would heal things that hurt, and drive out evil things which are spoiling your Ufa? Yes, you know It, and I know It, so let our prayers be that Christ may dwell In our hearts by faith. This is the substance of your faith. A better and more comprehensible doGultion of our religion could not be given. It contains the whole of Christianity as the acorn contains the oak. The whole Jewish law had Its di vine Inspiration, Its secret spirit, but It was hidden In a vast system of firm. Christ said, "I come not to destroy but to fulfill," and the true spirit of the law was seen In him. In v Inter an old apple tree Is homely, snarled and twisted. But In spring I when it Ih covered with blossoms ttore U nothing more beautiful. So j the old Jewish law blossoms Into I beauty and comes to fruit In Jesus Christ. Christianity is not a system of laws, hut a state of the heart. Christ la a man that Is the Christian relig ion It Is Christ dwelling In the heart by faith, and then a man be gins to know the length and the breadth and height and depth of the lovo of Christ which passuth knowl (U8" Outside of personal experi ence, Christianity Is pale as a lunar rainbow. There are three avenues of expe r!uin: by which Christ may come to man sight. Intellect, the heart. To ove seen Christ was doomed of great Importance In the early days. Those who had seen Jesus possessed a cer tain distinction, Paul, defending his aostieshlp, says, "Have I not seen aim'" Rut bow meager was the hrlsilan life of those days com Pared with that of later ages, and did lot Jt-sus pronounce a blessing on loose who had not seen and yel b'llliivod? Christ may be presented to a man's Intellect. There are certain facts to ho known and understood concerning Mm, hut there are also many that are heyond our understanding. Creeds uai up a few great facts of our rellg Not that the repetition of a "ree.1 will make anyone a Christian, hut a creed Is like the astronomer's telescope. He sweeps the heavens ' find a particular star. By and by the telescope brings It to his, eye. U l not the Instrument that sees the ur, but the man's eye. A blind man .could not gee the heavenly bodies lth a telescope, no matter how pow erful It might be. So a creed may bring facts to your Intellect, but II "kes the heart to apprehend and in "'rpret them. Therefore Paul prayed for the Ephe ns not greater knowledge, but that J'hrlst might dwell In their hearts by wth. por the, heart may embrace "st with an enthusiasm of love, uvn though the Intellectual percep. uon he Imperfect and vague.

A brief but striking summary of the last ten years' advance of the tern peranco cause In Great Britain forms part of an Interesting article entitled. "The Outlook," published recontly in one of the foremost organs of the temperance cauBe In England. The facts are forcibly summarized In the following paragraphs: "The decade which has just closed "ill always be momorablo for the enortiious advances which the tern- perance movement has made In every art 01 the civilized world. It Is al ways dlfilcult to estimate progress In ny political or moral agitation. As the seaman can judge of the strength and direction of a current only by fixing his eye on some remote or sta tlonary object and observing Its ap proach or recession, so on tho broad ocean of public opinion a judgment of the power of the current which is floating forward the temperanco question can be formed only by noting the landmarks which have been pass ed or the rapidity with which others are being approached. "The greatnoKs of that advance In the Unlteu Kingdom Is Indicated, though by no means mensured, by the marked reduction In the consumption of and expenditure on drink which has taken place. Between December, 1899, and December. 1909, there has been a fall in annual consumption of over 4,000,000 barrels of beer and over 13,000,000 gallons of spirits, and there has been a drop In tho annual expenditure during the same period of no less than 30,000,000. "This, however, Is not the full meas ure of the real advance. During the past ten years the national attii de to the liquor evil hns greatly changed, and nowhere more remarkably than among the working classes, a result largely due to the splendid "lead" given by their leaders on this ques tion. Social reformers of every school are now realizing that behind all the abuses which they are attacking stands tho great ally of every Boclal evil which curses the land the liquor traffic. Educationists have learned at last that it Is idlo to attempt to edu cate the child and leave him unwarned against a drug which Is the most po tent destroyer of physical, mental, and moral control, and tho testimony of the mediral profession against al cohol grows louder and more united every year. "In the realm of political activity the advance has been great. In Jan uary, 1911, there was In power a gov ernment which was content to be the servant of tho liquor trade. In Janu ary, J9I1, a government holds, office which has shaken Itself free from "the Trade." which has dared to defy "the Trade," and yet today is In power by the people's will with a great majority a government elected by the people with full knowledge that temperance legislation of an ad vanced kind will be among the first fruits of the legislative harvest.

A pitiable Instance of how strong drink will drag a man down was fur ulehed a few days ago when a Salva tion Army officer took to Bellevue hos pital as a victim of nephritis a inun of fifty-five who was penniless, broken and cast off by his family Hnd friends. This victim of rum Is the son of one of the world's most famous men. As a young man be went abroad with bis father and met royalty.

Ho was a member of the liiost exclusive clubs, and bad a wife and four children, lie became In volved In a financial scandal, was for a time In an asylum, and then dropped far down in the social scale. It was Impossible for his family to aid him other than to pay his board In places where ho could not obtain money or credit. He became familiar to men who frequent resorts late at night. He was often seen sweeping out saloons, doing errands, happy to acquire liquor. Disheveled, ragged, unkempt, he was almost unrecognizable. Now he Is apparently near a pauper's grave. And he, alas!

I B o PILOTED BY AN EAGLE Big Bird From Cebu Held by Twenty-Fathom Line. Captured by American Naturalist After Two Weeks of Arduous Mountain Climbing and Watch fulness Goes to Zoo. New York. Piloted up tho bay by an Immense American eagle, tbe steamship Pathan closed a two months' trip from Cebu, In the Philip pine Islands. The eagle has a double claim to the title American. Its na tive eyrie In the mountains of Cebu Is under the American flag, and the bird Itself will make Its permanent home hereafter In the Bronx Zoo. After nearly two weeks of arduous mountain climbing and untiring watchfulness, the bird was trailed to Hi nest high upon the face of a pre cipitous cliff by Professor Klngcome. an American naturalist, who had a thrilling adventure making it captive. Accompanied by three Filipinos, he rllmbed the mountain by a roundabout trail, coming out on tbe cliff some 40 feet above the eagle's nest, at an ele vation of 9,000 feet above the eea. The face of , the cliff was sheer and presented no foothold by which the bird hunter could descend. Making a rope fast under his arms, and taking a turn with it around a tree, he instructed the little brown men how to lower him by slacking iway easily. The descent was made III right, and tbe eagle, found asleep, was easily captured by means of a heavy net. Getting bnck to the top ef the cliff was another proposition. The Filipinos are not noted for big mus cles, and the professor, with the add ed weight tif the enele, proved too much for their strength. For more tbnn an. hour they tugged and pulled t the rope, only to give out entirely with the nnturnlist and his captive dangling In midair some 15 feet below the first foothold on the cliff. For a time Professor Kingcome thought his aids had deserted him, as they made no reply to his shouted or ders. Finally he made them pay at tention, nnd, under his instructions a bight of the line was lowered over the face of the cliff. This he made fast to the eagle, and leaving the bird swinging there, the professor climbed hand over hand to the top of the rock. After that It was a simple matter to haul up his prize. Throughout the trip the big bird was at liberty daily at the end of a 20-fathom line, and led the ship for hours at a time. Tbe line, made fast to a shackle on the eagle's leg, work ing In a swivel to prevent Jamming, did not seem to worry the .-icaptlve When liberated It would dart up luto tho air to the full length of the line; then, as It felt the restraint, would gradually settle down to about the level of the ship's dock, nnd with Its wings full spread would maintain a position abend of the ship for hours, keeping the line ns tnut as tho hawter of a tug. When tired of playing, tho bird would come aboard and make no ABOLISH TITLES FOR WOMEN German Mothers' Society of Berlin Calls "Fraulein" Antiquated Word Reform Advocated. Merlin.

This new reform is advo cated by the German Mothers' soci ety, one of the most influential of women's organizations In the empire.

Marked In Its Egg- hood Days, Is Hatched Out a Real Nature Freak. New York. Morltz Adler has a country home and farm near Deal, N. J. He also has a Plymouth Hock chicken. He gave her a place In the back yard of the home, with a dry goods box for a coop. Though perfectly normal In every other way. Rose that's her name has the shrewd face of a monkey. She drinks soup from a spoon held In the hand of her nurse. Having no beak, she docs not peck at meat scraps, after the manner of fowl, but picks them up daintily with her strawberry hued lips. The facial expression of Iloso Is piquunt. She has a rather set ex pression at the corner of her mouth, Indicating firmness of character. Her noBe Is well defined. Rising from her rather broad forehead Is a pompadour of feathers In the style that young girls affected with their hair a year ago, when Rose was a smooth white egg instead of a remarkable chicken. The general contour of her face Is somewhat like that of Susie, the fun ny little orang-outang from Ilorneo who delights children at the Bronx zoo Her Bnappy black eyes light up wonderfully when she sees cracked corn or oatmeal mush. "She was born a year ago," Bald Adler. "I knew her mother well. She was a fine old fussy Plymouth Rock hen, who stuck steadily to the busi ness of scratching gravel nnd produc ing eggs. She wasn't quite as pro gressive as some of tho more flashy Hrown Leghorn Mid Indiana game young ladles of the barnyard. Slio didn't take kindly to new-fangled ideas like women's rights.

Minneapolis, Mlun. After banging for more than twenty years In an out-of-the-way storeroom In a bank so covered with dust and grime as to be wholly unrecognizable, a painting probably 350 years old, by one of Italy's foremost artists, Ilenozzo Oox zoli, who executed it some time In the fifteenth century, was discovered In Minneapolis after a careful study of the signature. The name has boen restored, but reads "Ilenozzoll," a contraction and a favorite method em ployed by the old masters. Gozzoll often signed himself thus.

John Wilkes llooth did not reckon on the flag which tangled his foet when ho tried to escape. He killed a Lincoln, but up started a host of others to undo his evil deed. Tho kingdom of God Is not a pillar which can be thrown prostrate In tho dust, but a cubo that always falls upon a base as broad ns that from which it has been dislodged. In fact, it Is rather like tho Irishman's stono fence, which he built threo feet high and four feet wide, so that If It was tipped over It would be higher than It was before. How can we apply this Incident to our modern boys and girls? For every one of them a kingdom la waiting, the kingdom of a noblo, happy and useful manhood or womanhood. This Is tho real kingdom, for Joanh, and for every boy and girl. Every young king and queen Is surrounded by perils, as ter rible as those that threatened Joaxh; and the only safety now Is the safety that he found then tho protection of the church and of a godly homo. A noblo woman has dono her part In saving tho young king tho pnrt Uiat mothers play In the preservation of tho young kings of our modern homes. Now a man steps In, as the father comes to have tho chief Influ ence over the life of the growing boy. Jeholadn, tho high priest, was a man of ability and fine character. Prob ably It was becoming Increasingly dif ficult to bldo tbe growing lad, and lotigor confinement would be most in jurious for him physically and mental ly. The first step toward placing him on his rightful throne was to gather a sufficient force of loyal adherents. After obtaining the assurances, In addition to their own weapons, which of courso they would bear, they were furnished by Jeholada with the spears and shields that, as relics of David's time, hung somewhere within the sacred precincts, Just as his pre decessor Ablmelech had furnished to David himself the sword of Goliath. These would remind them that It was for David's heir they were contending Wise steps were taken, under tha leadership of Jeholada, In the opening of tho young king's reign. A covenant was made between the Lord and tho king and the people. This was a re newal of tho original compact, in which Jehovnh and bis people bound themselves together a compact bro ken by the Paul-worship of Atballah's reign. What was the second step? The Immediate and thorough destruction of the temple of Daal, with Its altars and licentious Images, and the execu tion of Its high priest- Mattan. It seems to be Implied tbat the "house of Daal" stood on the temple mount. In ostentatious rivalry with the sanc tuary of Jehovah. And the third stcpT Jeholada appointed officers over the houBo of the Ixird, re-establishing the courses of tho Levltcs, and proceed tng at once to assign the custody of the temple to a particular course. And tho final step? leaving the Levltes to keep order In tbe temple, Jeholada and the soldiers conducted the boy king to the palace tlirough the gate of tho gunrd, doubtless tbat through which the king regularly passed from the temple to the palace nnd back again, accompanied by his bodyguard What a change for the lad who hnd been a prisoner so long! When young Solomon started out In his reign he was offered his choice Of blessings, and chose not long life or riches or power, but wisdom; nnd In that choice ho gained the other bless ings also.- When Christ started out in his great reign he was found In the temple, seeking wisdom. When the girt Victoria learned tbat she was to become queen of earth's mightiest empire she quietly said: "I will be good." If our young kings and queens would be well furnished for their sovereignty they must go to the Illble and to the Plble school, and there they qwIU learn what true royalty Is, and what are tho secrets' of power and success. It Is appropriate that we have for Faster Sunday the story of a corona tion, for Easter la the anniversary of the greatest of all coronations, the day when all mankind received the possibility, at least, of the crown of life. This Is the crown to which all our young kings and queens should look forward as the blessed reward of no ble reigning over tbe kingdoms that God has given them. St. James wrote. "Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been ap proved, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Ixrd promised to them that love him." St. John was bidden to write to the church In Syria: "De thou falthfu' unto death, and I will give thee the crown of life." Tbe crown of life means the achievement of the best and most beautiful character. It means the de velopment of all the powers tbat God has given us. It means love and friends In most satlfylng abundance. It means the honor of all whose good opinion Is worth the most. It means Christ's "Well done, thou good and faithful servant!" It means an eter nity of happiness In heaven. All are signified by that open grave. Christian Nurture. The helplessness of a little child la the hope of the race. The long In fancy of a baby, the long adolescence of the boy Is a long series of open doors, a long appeal to love, a long plastic opportunity.

One day a squall answered that ques tion for inc. It was a hot nnd glitter ing day In the tropics, and In the clear sky overhead a black rain cloud ap peared all of a sudden. Then out ot empty space over n hundred sea birds' came darting from every direction, They got under the ruin cloud, and waited there for about ten minutes, circling round nnd round, and when the ram began to fall tbey drank their fill In the tropics, where the great sea birds sail thousands of miles away from shore, they get their drinking water in that way.
