REFUSED TO TAKE CHANCES
Old Gentleman Had Come to Conclu

on Hia Paying Mortgage.
When I'nele George Pence, chain
pinn feller of tales ut tho statehouse,
was auditor of Burtholomew county
Home years ago, an old German In tho
neighborhood owed a school-fund mort
gage f "'"l religiously name to tho
auditor's ofllco at each Interest-paying
period to pay the Brnall interest.
Tim records showed that the old Get'
rni n had owed the mortgage for more
thim thirty years, and he wa3 rather
llto do. '
Ono day, when he appeared to pay
his Interest. Auditor Pence asked h'.m
why he did not pay the $80 and stop
paying Interest.
The old man said he hud started to
pay that mortgago three times in the
last thirty years and that each time
he had made up his mind to pay it
and had started out to do It, one of his
BuiiB had died.

LESSON FOR JUNE 4.
THE CALL OF THE WEST.
t.i:8S'iN THXT-AetH u;.u.
(H)hliKN TKXT -Come over Into Mara
ilinilu mill help iih. Acta It.;!".
Kolluwinn the conimlHKlon'a rejiort
at Anlloeh of the dedalon of the .leru
ftaletu :liurch, faul and Harnahas and
utlKTH roiitlniieil their evangeliHiu In
that eity (ch. 15:35). Theae lenilcm
hood felt the need of revisiting the
aeenea of tlielr former luhora (v. :it;),
but when it eatnc to the organization
of their party, I'aul refused to accede
to tho declnton of llarnahaa thut John
Mark should aecompany them (vs. 'A,
38, see Acts 14: 13). .So sharp a con
tention arose that two parties were or
ganized. That Paul later forgave
Mark 18 evidenced by hia tender refer
encoH to him.
I. A Closed Door. Ch. 1(5: 1:1s. I'aul u
companiona for this aecond mission
ary tour were Silas (15:40), l.uko
(see use of word "we,'' v. 131, and
Timothy (v. 1-3). The latter came of
good ancestry, had good tniintiii; and
was of good report, still to avoid con
tention he submitted to the lite of
circumcision. 1'aul's work was to
promulgate the Jerusalem decree, to
establish or to confirm the. churches
and to add to these churches new con
verts. Hut that did not entirely ful
fill Paul's commission !i:15). Tho
word "Asia" (v. t) means the Itouian
province of Asia and, wisely obeying
the Spirit's direction, Paul passed on
until he came to the seaport (own of
Troas. At a later tinio Paul spoke
the "word of the Lord Jesus" in Asia
with wonderful effect t'.i: 1. S, 19,
-0, 27 1. It must have burned within
the bones of Paul thus to he re
strained, but It did not servo as an ex
cuse for him to take a vacation, but
rather to seek new fields wherein to
preach. Thus lie came to Troas. It
must have appeared stranpc nt the
time, but Cod was working out larger
plans for his faithful servant and for
the advancement of his infant church.
In this connection It is suggestive
(see Revised Version!, that the name
given to the Spirit Is "the Spirit of
Jesus," Indicating his nearnnss to and
directions in every advance step.
II. The Macedonian Call. v. l-Ki.
Paul had several opochmaking vi
sions: on the' Damascus rosd (!:"., 4
and 2G: 19) ; in Jerusalem (23:11); at
the time of his shipwreck i'l:2:U,
and tho one wc are now considering
A vision is a knowledge of the need
and of tho resources at oiic'b coin
mand. Grecian beauty, philosophy,
art and culture needed Christ.
Chriiit as a resource was adequate
and availablo to supply that need.
This vision Paul saw: through It God'
called him lo Macedonia. "We"
(the first use of that pronoun in the
book of Actsl, Paul and l.uke, Inimo
diatcly essayed to obey. Tradition
tells us that Luke "tho beloved physi
cian" was a native of Atitioch and
had met i'aul at the univeralty of Tar
sua. The promptness with which these,
men responded is worthy of empha
sis. The vision amounted to a cull,
and a response to God's call must for
all time bo the secret of a happy and
effective life. There is no progress
In more metaphysical speculation.
III. The Open Door, v. I I, IS. On
what seeming trllles docs history
turn! An outcast wandering Juw
coming to help a proud, cultured, In
lluentlal foreign city, but ho bears tho
Gospel which alone can be of help
to thorn. Paul did not wait to 'in
vestigate the field ' nor to establish
a working organization. lie knew
a better point of contact, and that wae
to find those in that city who knew
(5od even though Ignorant of Christ.
He began by preaching Jesus, not
comparative religions, , nor did he
seek (o found "community centers"
with soup kitchens and social uplift.
Paul knew that to clcvato the Individ
ual by establishing him in the faith of
Christ would soon result In commu
nity uplift. On the other hand, a
faith which evaporates in words and
does not give tangible, concrete evi
dence in works may well be dial
lenged as to its being genuine. There
was no supernatural direction as to
what part of Macedonia Paul was to
visit, and exorcising his common
sense, Paul went at onco to the prin
cipal city. Ho did not begin at once
to preach the Gospel fv. 12 It. V.),
but waited and watched for an oppor
tunity, doubtless praying much for a
favorable opening (Ch. 13: 14; 17:!!;
IS: 4 . When they did begin it was
in a most modest and humble way.
"Not even In a pynorague no crowd
called together by flaming advertise
ments; simply a company of obscure,
praying women gathered according to
Jewish custom, apart from tho syna
gogue, by tho sldo of running water."
The "mini of Macedonia" seems to
have'becu a woman unless wo consider
tho Philippian Jailor. This open air
meeting was one of the most notable
In history. The Lord opened tho
heart of pious Lydia and It was the
turning point of the evangelization of
Europe and America and the world.
God must open the hearts ot men and
women (John 6:41, 45; Eph. 1:17, 18;
Luke 24:45), and this bo is willing
and glad to do. Tho etepa of this
woman's conversion are cloarly
marked and present a good type. (1)
She went out to pray (v. 13), (2) She
hoard the word (v. 13, 14; bco alao
John 5:24). (3) She had her heart
opened by tho Lord (v. 11). (I) She
"gave heed to the things which were
spoken" (v. 13 and Mark 1G: 10). (5)
She made public confession of her
nowly-found faith by baptism.
(6) She carried with her the whole
household, perhapB children, workers
In her business and servants (,. 31
33; I Cor. 1:16).
Temperance
(Conducted by llio National Woman's
Christian Temperance. Union.)
LATEST WORD OF SCIENCE.
The liquoritOB In their publicity arti
cles often quote what they call a "re
cent" statement in the Lancet (Lon
don, England) concerning benolits
from the use of alcoholic medicines
and beveragos. Aa a matter of fact It
appeared some years ago and was pre
pared by proliauorltes in an attempt
to offset tbo antlalcohollc ut terances of
leading English physicians and sur
geonssuch men aa Sir Frederick
Treves, surgeon to tho king; Sir Thom
as Harlow, physician to the king; Sir
Victor Horslcy, England's greatest
neurological surgeon; Sir A. Pearce
Gould ot the Middlesex hospital, Hir
James Barr, dean ot the Medical
School of Liverpool university; Prof.
Sims Woodhnad of Cambridge univer
sity medical school, and others of like
standing.
Tho statement received 10 signatures
of medical men, and half of these, it
jvas discovered, were men who owned
brewery or distillery stock, it was
given conspicuous place in every bar
room In England and In mr.ny Ameri
can saloons and Is still doing duty.
To the question, Is alcohol a food or
a poison, a stimulant or a depressant?
science Is giving reply. Its latest re
port comos from the nutrition labora
tory of the Carnegie - institution of
Washington, where tests were made to
dotertnlno the offeets of alcohol on mo
tor and mental processes. The sub
jects were college graduates, sumo of
them moderate drinkers, some burd
drinkers. In all the teats mudo the
evidence showed clearly that alcohol is
a depressant to the system, never a
stimulant.
WHAT DOCTORS THINK.
When the liquor men circularized
the physicians of Vermont, urging
thera to oppose state-wide prohibition,
the replies wero not what they had
hoped for. This is one of (hem:
"We, the members of the medical
staff of the Vermont Slate hospital,
submit the following as an expression
of our opinion of (he use of alcohol as
a beverage.
"We are now and ever shall be ut
terly opposed to the sale and use of
alcohol in any form as a beverage; we
are absolutely opposed to any propa
ganda that bas for Its purpose to le
galize the sale of alcohol as a bever
age. It has no place Internally as a
medicine; it is always In all forms
a poison and a destroyer of proto
plasm and a paralyzer of protoplasmic
activity.

ORGANIZER'S STORV.
One of our pro-liquor friends told
the writer that women ought to stay
at homo and bring up their families.
They ought to train their boys to let
liquor alone. Then he told a pathetic
story that ho personally knew to be
true (!) of a certain Mrs. Pingley out
in Kansas (always Kansas!), who
went out lecturing for the W. C. T. V.
and left her three liitlo children for
their father to look after. He could
not be with (hem every moment, and
the throe boys played on the railroad
track and were all killed by the carB
running ovor them. As I dryly com
mented, all that spoiled tho s(ory was
that the V. C. T. V. never sends out
woman lecturers with small children
nt home, and there never was any
Mrs. Pingley employed as a V. C. T.
U. speaker in Kansas, lie was not
certain then whether that was her
name or not, and thought perhaps she
was speaking for some other cause!
RAILROAD WATER-WAGON CLUB.
"Every Rrssemer man on the water
wagon." This Is the aim of the em
ployees of the Bessemer & Lake Erie
railroad. Whilo membership is not
compulsory, the movement Is so pop
ular that those who do not Join feel
that they are somewhat under con
demnation. Many men who are not
members have quit drinking. In Al
bion, Pa., the division terminal of the
roud. tho Water-Wagon club has prac
tically put the saloon out of business.
Instead of pay day being a duy of
wild carousing it Is now quiet and
orderly.
BANK DEPOSITS INCREASE.
The saloons of Sioux City, la., closeo
whon the state went tnto the prohibi
tion column tho first of January, 191G.
The savings bank deposits In the city
increased $10,100 the first week tho
saloons wero closed. In thut week 350
new savings accounts were opened in
the various banks, most of them by
poople who had never had a bank ac
count before.
WATER WAGON SAFEST.
"You can't get away from It, I tell
you. Tho water wagon may not bo
as Jolly to ride on as tho boozo cart,
hut it takes you to a home and friends,
The booze cart dumps you in Jhe gut
ter or In a pauper's grave." Jess Wll
lard. FOUR BARS.
Act I. Before the bar of the snloon,
Act II. Before tho bar of the court.
Act III. Before the bur of tho
prison.
Act IV. Boforo the bar of God.
NEWSPAPERS KNOW.
"If whisky bad a leg lo stand on,"
says Mayor BcnnoU of Hockford, 111.,
"there would be nt least ono paper In
Hockford advocating saloons. The
newspaper men know more about a
city than anyone else. There are three
papers in Rockford, all dry."
MONEY FOR EDUCATION.
North Carolina spent 12.000,000 for
educational purposes the year before
It voted out saloons. Last year it
spent 17,000,000.

of the (iinnts, declares the ability to
perform just that feat the greatest
recommendation for any hatter.
One of the strongest reasons for the
optimism r,f the Cincinnati tans is the
pitching staff of the Reds. There Is
Fred Toney. who ranked second to
(Irover Cleveland Alexander last sea

In tho Reds this year. At present Pill

EASIER FOR UMPIRES
FANS DO NOT RIDE THEM, AS IN
DARK AGES OF BASEBALL.
Attacking Arbiter Verbally and Some
times Physically on Every Close
Decision Waa Deemed Prero
gative of Players.
The senseless pastime of umpire
baiting is becoming a relic of the dark
ages of baseball.
In former years attacking the um
pire verbally, and sometimes physi
cally, on every close decision was con
sidered the prerogative of managers
and players, whilo many scribes all
bled for their defeats by blaming the
poor Judge of play.
That lime passed long ago and In
telligent players today realize that
nothing Is gained and much may be
lost by getting into rows- with the um
pire, who Is in full charge of the game
on the field and Is as essential to the
pastime as the players themselves.
Any fair man who knows the big
league umpires will have to acknowl
edge tliat (bey are u fair-minded and
conscientious set of men, anxious to
do their duty to the best of their abil
ity, playing no favorites and giving
each decision an it comes up exactly
as ihey see it.
( inpires, as n rule, are much fairer
than ball players. The latter will try
to work every small advantage, will
resent tlie sllghteut criticism of their
work, no mailer how well-founded it
may be, and will nllbl for themselves
and one another in the boldest man
ner. I'mpires. on this other hand, are., as
a rule, very fair and willing to admit
making a mistake. Their position is
a difficult one. The umpire behind
tlie plate, calling balls and strikes, as
well as making all decisions at the
plate find sometimes at third base. Is
called upon to render as many as I at I
decisions in the course of a single
came. The big majority of these he
t.'lves accurately. In proportion to
the number of chances he has, his
mistakes are much fewer than those
of the bell players, who miss .1 or 10
per cent of their chances in the Held
and make errors of Judgment at the
bat.

Success as American League Pitcher
Due to Desire to Dust Off Every
