It can stamp "One Dollar" on i slip of white paper, and we accept it at a dollar's worth, but neither the paper nor the printing are worth a copper. What gives It value Is the promise of the people of Canada which mails behind the printed slip, and our faith In that promise. Now do you know who's got the money T Let us put It Into figures. Tho farm er of Alberta, Saskatchewan aud Manitoba lust year raised 342,048,000 hnshels of wheat. If we take for an ircriiRo 85 cents a bushel In Manitoba, SI cents In Saskatchewan, und 79 cents In Alberta the season's wheat crop was worth $280,00,000. Add to this an out crop of 334,840,000 bushels, worth ?0ri,4.")7,000 ; a barley crop of 35, ;,14,200 bushels, worth $15,871,000, and a flu x crop of 10,559,000 bushels worth $15,8-13,000, and you llnd that on these four staples alone the farmers of West ern Cnnndit produced a wealth of 407,SOO,iKK). I'lease note that this wealth Is In money. It Is not In real estate at In flated values, Industrial stocks that are half water and the rest air, fictitious Kondwllls or unsaleable merchandise. It is In hard cash, or which Is better tiard wheat. These flgufes are only for the staplo praln productions. They do not In clude the millions of dollars represent ed by the live stock and dairying Indus trios, or the additional millions Includ ed In the root, fruit, and garden crops. The creameries of Saskatchewan, for Instance produced more buttermilk and Ice cream last year than their total production amounted to six years iigo. The milk, butter, and cheese pro duction of Alberta for 1915 was valued nt over eleven million dollars. The po tato crop of the three provinces was worth five millions and u half. Com aim! alfalfn comparatively new crops, charged with tremendous possibilities amounted to over a round million, I'.von honey you didn't know wo raised honey (the bee kind) In this country, did you?

And Peter rememliered 1h word of the Lord, how lie hnd sulil unto htm: Before the cock crow, thou thult deny me thrlee. And Pfltcr went out, and wept bitterly. Luke 2:iU, 02. Peter never forgot his denial. Speaking to the .Tews be says, "Ye del. led the holy one and the Just." and In his second epistle he refers to I hose who de nied the Lord that bought them. At tho point where he was sup posed to be strong est, he failed, lie Is noted as the confessor of Christ, yet he came his denier. He was tho brave man who under took to defend C'lirltit In the gar den, ye( he cowered before the ser vants iu the high priest's palace, lie was not In danger of being killed If be hnd confessed Christ, but denied hi in to save himself from being taunt ed. And all this occurred on the same night In which he had received the bread and wine from the hands of his master, and had submitted to having his feet washed by him I We are only kept from chiding blm because we are reminded of our own failures und our denials of Christ. The Sin of Profanity. Added to the sin of ilenlul was that of profanity, for we uro told that he began to curse and to swear, saying bo knew not the man. The sin of profanity clings to a man, and the ten dency sometimes appears even after conversion. Many have failed at this point, although delivered from other sins. An old writer has pointed out the folly of it In these words: "The devil tempts men through their ambi tion, their cupidity, or their appetite, until he comes to the profane swear er, whom he clutches without any n- ward." There Is a melancholy comfort In the fact that l'eter seemed to feel they would not suspect blm of being a disciple If they should hear him use profane language; the world ex pects things of Christians. 'Several elements enter Into the story of Peter's denial. First of all. we notice his self-confidence. "If all shall be offended In thee. I will never be offended." Ills failure doubtless revealed to him his weakness, and was used of Cod In bringing him to a better mind. I!y such testings we learn our own helplessness ami are driven to the strong one for strength In his epistle, Peter emphasizes Ihe value of meekness and godly fear. "No Business With the Flunkies." Another secret of Peter's failure is found In the society ho kept. He hud followed his Lord nfur olT, and when he came Into the palace, sat down with the high priest's servants. As on old Scotch woman said, "he had no business with the flunkies." It Is dllllciilt to maintain a Christian pro fesslon even when we must lie among the ungodly, but there Is great dan ger when we choose them for our com panlons. Safety Is found in nn early and frank avowal of our relation to Christ, and showing our colors will save us from many temptations. Again, the element of surprise has to be reckoned with. Peter would have been brave In the garden In open con fliet with Christ's enemies, but he did not expect to be assailed as lie sat by the fire that night. Earnest Chris tians learn to dread temptations which approach with the stealth of ser pent. The writer recalls the occasion when he first saw a "sensitive plant. und remembers his surprise when Its leaves withered nt the approach of his hand. If we are to escape better than Peter did, our sonls must Le so tender that the very approach of temp tation will cause them to shrink In dread and hide themselves In Christ, let this man was restored even af ter such a failure. There were four steps In his restoration. Steps Bsck to Christ. First, there was the look of Christ. After the crowing of the cock, we are told the Lord turned and looked upon Peter. What a look of wounded love thnt must have been I Yet 'we should not forget that' the same sad, pierc ing gaze is turned upon us when we grieve Christ Secondly, tho Lord sent a special message to Peter ou the morning of the resurrection (Murk 10:7). Thirdly, he had a private Interview with this apostle on the day he aroso (Luke 24:34; I Cor. 15:5). Finally, when be appeared to the seven on the shore of the Sea of Oall lee, ho reinstated Peter most fully, The story Is told In John 21. and Is worthy of careful perusal. Three times tho Lord asked him If he loved him, nnd the apostle hnd thrice denied, so he was allowed to confess him three times. Poor Peter might have thought he would never again be Intrusted with responsibility, but three times the Lord bade him feed his flock. As a climax, this man who had said he would follow Christ to death, but had failed so shamefully, was told he would, ofter nil, have the privilege of dying for his Lord. What comfort hero for the backslider I With what new meaning may we sing, "He re- storeth my soul." Rest. It Is a comfort, when we are worn with, many cares, that we need not tell over separately each sorrow, each anxiety, to the merciful ear that Is ever open to us. We need only kneel and lay the whole burden at his feet who has said, "I will give you rest. Th? worst bitterness passos rlway. fret h strength comes, we rise y stnuigthenttd and comforted.

LESSON FOR JULY 30 "THE WORD OF THE CROSS." I.nflSON TKXT-I Cor. 1:1; 2:3. Prlut 1-182-2. GOI.DKN TBXT Far be It from ma to glory, ave in the emus of our. Lord Jeans Chrlat.-Uul. 6:14. raid's letter to the church at Cor inth was written from the city of Fphesiis somu four of live years after Puul had left Corinth. We have seen some of the dllllculties which sur rounded this church. It was a small body of believers in a great city of four hundred thousand, It was sur rounded by all kinds of llsceiitlousness nnd excess so that to maintain a Chris tian moral Ideal wus dllllcult In the ex treme. That Is why this first epistle has so much to do with church govern ment and such questions as the mar riage relation, the conduct of public assemblies, spiritual gifts, the resur rection from the dead, different fac tions, the love feasts of the rich and Ihe poor, eating meat offered to idols, law suits conducted before the heath en, the Lord's supper and church (Helpline are discussed. Paul did not himself write the letter. Sostheues acted as his amanuensis. In this let ter Is the wonderful and Immortal love chapter (Ch. 13), and tho magnificent resurrection chapter (Ch. 15), Paul recognizes muny of the good things thnt have been done by the Corinthian church (See Ch. vv. 1-0), but goes on to entreat the church against any party spirit and factions (vv. 10-7). His argument for church unity Is vuperh. The only unity desirable or possible is thnt which Christ prayed for (John 17:21). This Is not n unity of opinion or of organization, but a unity of pur pose nnd power, the working together of bellvers In harmony to attain the great purposes of Christianity. It Is n unity of freedom nnd not of compul sion. " I. The Power and Wisdom of God. (vv. 18-25). To a sin-blinded mind the preaching of the cross is foolishness, liven some professed Christians reject the doctrlue of substitution which Is found everywhere In the I?lble. (Isa 03:0; Gal. 8:13; I Cor. 5:21). If the doctrine of the cross Is foolishness to anyone It is to "them that perish." The Jews require n sign (v. 22) but the cross puts them to shame (v. 27) (iod Is made unto us wisdom, not the wisdom of men but the wisdom of the Spirit. It is such preuchlng as this thnt Is "tho power of God." It has proven Itself the' power of (Iod In our lives. It will "destroy the wisdom of the wise" and "bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent" (Isa. 29:14 cf. Jer. 8:0). God Is constantly making foolish the power nnd wisdom of this world. Philosophic research after the unknowable "tries to make a Uod of Its own pattern but doe not satisfy the longings of the human heart," nnd God through the foolish. ness of the thing preached Is pleased to "save them which believe." The performing of a miracle (Math. 12:38), und tho Greeks seeking after wisdom, or philosophical reasoning, Is no match for the Christ crucified whom Paul prcuched. The wisdom of man in com purl son with the wisdom of (iod Is wortldess: the foolishness of God Is wiser than thnt of man, nnd the weak ness of God Is stronger than that of man. God does a good deal of playing upon Imperfect Instruments. Ho doubtless often longs to produce better music through these human In, slrumonts, but hard ns It is to keep them near to concert pitch, yet he Is patient nnd, "unto them which are called, both Jews nnd Greeks, Christ the power of God nnd the wisdom of God," Is producing the anthem of glory to the honor of his mime. II. The Preaching and Power of Paul (vv. 2d to Ch. 2 :2). Taking the ltlhle as a whole, we see In It God's plan and purpose with regard to the goal of mankind. The problem was by what means this purpose could be per formed. The whole of the Old Testa ment Is u, story of God working to this end. Then nt the best time In nil his tory came Jesus, the son of God, Into the world, nnd, by his donth on the cross aud his resurrection, we are all hound together In one, summed up In the cross as the power and the wisdom of God for salvation. The symbol of the cross Is a common sight, yet the greot truth which It symbolizes Is often obscured by scholars, nnd falls to be lived by disciples. God chooses those whom the world rejects, "the foolish," nnd whom the world rejects us "the weak." These are the ones that were called even In Paul's day. The purpose of this call Is to confound (or to put to sliume) the wisdom of men. The most powerful motive In existence Is the motive of the cross, (1) The cross Is the highest proof and the strongest expression of the love of God for num. (2) the cross was the agent whereby atonement was mnde for sin. (3) The cross shows us the terrible evils of sin nnd the de mand of such a sacrifice as God's son In order to save us from It. (4) It shows us that God wants us to come to him and to be saved, nnd that there Is Joy In heaven over every repentant sinner. (5) It shows tho supreme val ue of right nnd duty in that Christ went to the cross at the terrlblo -cost of his life. (0) It shows the value of the human soul. (7) From the cross, through the resurrection nnd the ever, living Saviour, God hns given us the fullness of the Spirit to Inspire and transform. We are nothing In ourselves, nnd God has nuido Christ unto us "wisdom nnd righteousness," that Is, God's righteousness Is provided for us in Christ (I Cor. 5:21; Iloni. 0:1; Phil, 3:0 It. V.); also snnctiflcatlon nnd redemption, thnt Is, we are separated from the world unto God nnd In him we ore redeemed from sin and Its con sequences. Oriprancr FOLLY OF NATIONS. In nn address at London university before the Child Study association on "Serving the Future," Dr. C. . Sideeby, nn eminent Kngllsh scientist, stated that he had It on the highest authority that the Increase In Infant mortality since the war begnu was al most entirely due to the fact that mothers had been drinking more alco hol hud, In fact, been using to kill tho future the money given by the na tion to save the future. "People do not realize," the doctor declared, "how much of the finest food is being de stroyed to make poison. It is the mad dest thing you can imagine! There are not enough ships to carry our com merce, yet many ships are being used to bring to these shores the material for making poison that our mothers may buy at the corner of the street." To Illustrate tho national need of caring for children In their earliest years, Doctor Saleeby remarked that during the past 17 months the army hnd been rejecting Immense numbers of "damaged" men, who were renlly damaged as long ago as 1800-95. Ger ninny hnd been linving the same diffi culty, but In her enso It was even moro serious. That country, he said, wns now paying for her characteristic militarist neglect of the mother nnd tho child, for It wns certain that a high rate of Infnnt deaths meant a proportionately high rnte of "dam aged" or unfit men. DRINK AND DIVORCE. "The story of the divorce court reeks with whisky nnd brutality," says .Tnck Lolt, who writes for Chicago Herald. He has lately been dropping Into the courtroom of Judge Kersten, the busiest Jurist in Christendom, and watching nnd listening." He has found thut "the fist is the symbol of divorce nnd the bottle Its inspiration." Liquor Is responsible for more than ten out of twenty cases. "Those aro the tales," he says, "thnt do not get display heads In news columns. They nre not Important, they nre not pic turesque." Judge Kersten has spent 30 years "adjudicating criminal mat ters, from murder to spitting on the sidewalk and of It nil, the blackest, the sorriest, the saddest, are the di vorce cases." And the states, most of them, go on licensing the sale of the stuff which Inspires the drunken fist go on In money partnership with the drunkard maker! WHO'LL GET THE MONEY? The manufacture of lumber is an Important Industry in the state of state of Washington and tho woods men used periodically to go into tho towns and sppnd their wages in the saloons. Shortly before the prohibi tion law became operative a polico captain inquired of one of these men what he would do with his money on his next visit. "I'll tell you what I am going to do," said the logger. "Next time I come to town I nra going to buy a now suit of clothes, some boots, a macklnaw and some new blankets." Tho captain says thnt this answer Is typical of tho answers of many other loggers who might be questioned. CITIES ENFORCE DRY LAW. "It used to be all very well," says the Spokane (Wash.) Chronicle, "to say that 'prohibition is good enough for the rubes, but It won't go In tho cities.' Now things have swung around to such an extent that the larger municipalities are among the leaders in the dry movement. Seventy-one cities, ranging from 25.000 to 325,000 population are now listed as dry and with the dry law ns well en forced as other laws. Seven wet slates contain dry cities of more than 25,000 population. There are 19 dry states, and tho 'Nation's Going Dry' all too soon to please the saloonatks." NONUNION WHISKY. Ninety-four per cent of the whisky mnde In the Cnlted Slates Is made by the whisky trust. Whisky Is made by nonunion labor, paid only $0.10 per week, according to United States bu reau of census reports. The hours of labor range from 10 to 17 per day. Out of $100 paid for whisky at manu facturer's price only $2.08 goes bnck to the wage earners who mnde the whisky. SALOONS AND TAXES. The report of one of Uncle Sam's departments completely smashes the contention of tho wets that saloons lower taxes. The report shows that the general property tax collected in prohibition states Is $10.12 per capita, In near-prohibition states $11.08, In states partially under license $13.22 per capita, and in wholly license states $16.98. NOT DISCERNIBLE. Walter E. Johnson, an American avi ator expert, after spending six months In Russia, or near there, watching for submarines In the Black sea, told re porters that he could detect sub marines 150 feet under water while ho was 3,000 feet above It, but that ho had not been able to see a drunken man In Kussla anywhere. GAINING POPULARITY. At the rate tho country Is going dry, the water wagon will soon be as popu lar as the automobile. Exchange. JOBS FOR BARTENDERS. The grocer has an extra clerk. The furniture store Is enlarged. A new shoe store Is on the corner where the saloon was. The Jeweler has adver tised -for an extra clerk. The dry goods business is rushing. Oh, yes! the bartender is out of a Job. What oan he do! Get a Job with the baker. Make buns, Instead of bums. V. IL Hobblus., DOES NOT CONFISCATE.
