One young nan as rough i any of hi companion! and quite the equal of the worst in pro f salty, wst in the tnldst of a sentence, very second word, of which teemed an oath, when a woman, making her way across the street and hurrying to escape the passing teams, gained the corner and landed almost in the midst of the group. She stood a moment, horrified and bewildered, face to face with the young man. "Oh, please don't!" was all she said to him, but she looked him for a moment squarely in the face. It was not wholly a bad face. It turned crimson under her look, end the sentence stopped unfin ished. She was gone in a moment. A brief silence fell on the crowd, followed by a laugh at the expense of the young man whom she had addressed. But, says the Youth's Companion, he did not join in the laugh, and after a time withdrew, manifestly uncomfortable because of the iucident. It was not long before he swore again, but when he did it the memory of that mild re buke, 'Tlease don't!" also came to mind, lie seemed to hear it every time he spoke coarsely or profanely. Be fore he would hare admitted it hs was making an effort to purify his speech, and when his companions noticed it end rallied him on "turningparson"he began to avoid them and to seek bet ter society. But in due time his old companions themselves began to re spect the change which they saw in him and to notice that he was doing better in every way. Be found steady employment and became more careful in his dress. The change in him was too genuine to be sneered at,and those who in the beginning had laughed be gan to envy and admire him and to seek his friendship anew. It is a rare trans gressor who cannot be touched by some "angel of his better nature." The timely word of a friend, or even a stran ger, is often more efficient than a sermon.

Walking In Lov Kph. 5:1. 1 Walking In purity Eph. e:S- Walking In light Eph. 6:7-14 Walking as wise v. .Eph. 1:16-21 NOTES AND COMMENTS. The Epistle to the Epheslans. Paul wrote this letter while he was a prisoner at Koine, in A. D. 01 or 62. It wns probably sent with the letters to the ColoKKiuns nnd to Philemon, and it closely resembles the epistle to the Colossinna in outline and man ner of thought. Xo special reason Is mentioned in the epistle for its writ ing, and it seems to have been a lov ing pastoral salutation. Some of the oldest manuscripts omit the name Ephesus in 1:1, one or two having a blank space there. That fact has led some to think that it was a general letter written to be sent to various churches. Some hnve identified it with rani's epistle to the Lno diceans, n writing which is men tioned in some early Christian liter ature, but which Is not now known unless this suggestion be correct. Walking In Love. Of ra ill's sttm mnry of Christinn duty, the heart Is 5:1-21. In this pnssnge there is com paratively little reference to specific duties, but much dwelling on the spirit which will make the doing of every duty a delight. By walking In love Taul menns that self-forgctful desire to serve others which was the spirit that moved Christ to His great sacrifice. Walking In Purity. The Christian life furnishes no place for Kclf-indul- gent immorality, fauc-li sins as nre i spoken of here were terribly com- mnn in all the cities of the Creek ! anil Komnn world. Tho "iostinsr" of 1 verse 4 is not innorcnt joking', but filthy wit and smutty humor. The flrst clause of verse C alludes to the false reasons which nre often given In excuse for sins of this sort. There Is no real cxeuse for them, but the wroth of God falls on them. Wulking in Light. Tho great rea son why the Christian tmist practice personal purity is found in bis rela tion to God. God's liht. I", too bright for the darli!ie--s of human filth to stand before it. Pome, however, while pecking God's lijrht, try also to keep in touch with the world's wickedness enough to know what bad men nre do ing. Much fellow, hip Paul rebukes, de claring that tlie attitude of the Chris tian must be one of opposition to nil impurity. If the light of Christ really shine in the life it will reprove deeds of darkness. The Christ like life is one of straightforward, simple, trans parent, purity. The quotation in verso 14 is believed to be front nn early hymn, but there is no certain proof that mieli Is the fact. Walking ns Wise. This last sec tion is a call to careful living. It is not enough to strive for purity of spirit, but one must watch constant ly the outworking of his spirit In life. In verse 10 the duty of the Christian Is likrjtcd to that of the tradesman buying stock for his store. He must keep his eyes open for good bnrgnins, nnd must see to It that nil good opportunities for purchasa are ncceptcd promptly. Especially must he be very careful when bargains be- I come rare. Such a situation Is before the Christian. He must strive the more carefully to use every oppor tunity for a noble. Christlike deed, j because of the evil by which he Is surrounded in the world. The great essential qualification for snch living, ' according to verse 17, Is knowledge of God's will. Such knowledge, joined with cleanness of spirit, Is the crown ing strength of the true life. Every life needs periods of excitement and exhnltation. Such reliefs from mo notony should be found by the Chris tinn not In drunkenness or in arti ficial stimulation, but in the special stirrings of the Holy Spirit. Such stirrings will find utterance In songs of Christinn praise, which rise from the heart; In expressions of thanks giving to Cod through Clirl.st for every experience of life, whether It seem good or bad; and In the self humbling fellowship which , accepts admonition 1 anil suggest ions from fellow Christians. PRACTICAL Bl'GfjKSTIONS. Walk In purity. Do not go where the very ntinor.phere Is polluted with foul thoughts. .
