 obliged to dissolve the Diet without having obtained anything. If he had not sent the Estates home, he might perhaps have had the worse experience of the Protestant nobility moving to support the Bohemians. At least the Moravian colonel, von Tiefenbach, who had come for this purpose to Presburg, labored hard for the alliance, and it is said that several of the foremost Protestant families were gained for this measure.

The dissolution of the Diet lessened for the time Ferdinand's danger; but this helped him little, since a new danger was in preparation for him in Transylvania. The Hungarian Protestants had sent from Presburg a certain Herr Zmeskal to Bethlen, at the court of which Prince Thurzo and Zmeskal probably met and united their efforts to induce him to join the Bohemian movement. This was an important moment for Bethlen; should he follow this call and enter upon a contest with Ferdinand, or content himself with the power already gained? In a confidential interview with some Bohemian envoys, held a year later, at a banquet, when he was half drunk, he stated, with an air of profound confidence, that he had not under-estimated the perils of his decision; in Hungary there was indeed a settled peace when he marched against the Emperor, and he could not know with certainty that the country would not oppose him; he had, nevertheless, taken the risks of the war. It is not to be supposed, however, that he was much tormented with anxiety about any resistance from the Hungarians, since he, as a Magyar and a Protestant, felt secure of the sympathies of most of the people: what troubled him was the Turks, who certainly would not have allowed, without hoping to reap some advantage from it, a change in the rule over Hungary; and how could he hope to oppose a stronger and

 more persevering resistance to them than could the house of Hapsburg, with its abundant resources? Ambition and the passion for war, however, overcame his misgivings, and determined him to a contest with Ferdinand.

Bethlen was variously judged by his contemporaries. That the Catholics saw in him the embodiment of all evil, was natural; but among the Protestants of Germany and England, too, he has had strong opposers; they regarded him as being in close alliance with the Turks, and half a Mohamme.lan, so asnot to be properly reckoned at all with Christian princes. This view may have been partly owing to the circumstance that Bethlen, in his youth, spent some years in Constantinople, and that he is reported to have been there circumcised. The pedantic King James entertained of him so unfavorable an opinion that he never honored him with a letter, although his son-in-law, Frederic, of the Palatinate, earnestly besought him to do so. In the way which he pursued to attain to his high position, he could not indeed always keep the path of virtue, as those may, but seldom do, who are originally destined to the princely dignity.

Belonging to the lower nobility, Bethlen had, from his seventeenth year, devoted himself to war as a trade, and in the course of his life had taken part in not less than forty-two battles, greater and less. His property was originally so small that, when occasionally embarrassed, he appeared to his creditors not to offer the needed securities, and on this account once applied in vain to a merchant in Kaschau for a loan of 100 florins. He was praised for having, when he attained to the dignity of a prince, a memory and judgment equally excellent, and also a predilection for scientific pursuits. He knew only the Magyar and Latin languages, the latter of which was

 226 doubt, whether he should believe or no? But that scruple is not removed by the contrary perswasion, that Christ died for all mankind in the common lapse: for so Christ died for many men, that neither can nor ought as such to believe: and he that questioneth whether he should believe, doth it in respect of former transgressions, abuse of grace, neglect of the meanes, and conscience of his owne unworthinesse, in which case it affords small comfort, and lesse resolution to informe him that Christ died for all men as sinners, but not as impenitent or unbelievers. But the direct way and course to comfort the distressed and doubting soule in that perplexity, is to informe him that his sins are pardonable, because in Christ forgivenesse is offered unto him; that he is particularly called being hungry, thirstie burdened, finding himselfe destitute both of grace and comfort, to come unto Christ for them both: and being graciously invited, he is without further dispute or delay to cast his soule upon the promises of mercy and come unto Christ, that he might be refreshed. But they are in vaine commanded to believe, if Christ died not for them, because they cannot believe. Is it then in vaine, that the obstinate and rebellious are commanded and invited to believe, who as such cannot believe? Was it in vaine, that God commanded PharoahPharaoh [sic] to let Israel goe? that our Saviour would have gathered Jerusalem, when the things concerning her peace, were hid from her eyes? Might not men argue by the same reason, that it was in vaine for God to intreate and perswade them to believe, when he did fore-know that by such invitation they would not be allured to come unto him? And if they cannot believe, it is not through the unreasonablenesse or absurdity of the thing commanded, which doth excuse, nor impotency of weaknesse, as if they would believe, but cannot, which is to be pitied; but impotency of wilfulnesse and prave affection, the more unable to believe, the more wilfull to refuse, which is inexcusable. And though I cannot say, God hath given to every man to believe if he will: Yet sure, God is not wanting to any man in that which either in justice or promise he is bound to give: and did men deny themselves, nourish the motions of Gods Spirit, and earnestly desire to believe, without question they should find the Lord gracious. If men believe it is of grace, not only that whereby they are inabled to believe, but whereby they are discerned from other men: if they believe not, it is of themselves, of their own

pravity; and they be not further from believing, then from desire to believe.

It is objected further, that Christ as he died to impetrate remission of sins for me in particular, is the object of justifying faith. The mercy of God reaching to the pardon of sin in and through Jesus Christ is the object of faith justifying, as it is proffered unto us in the word of life: but it is one thing to believe that mercy is to be had through the death of Christ, and that it is offered unto us in the Gospell, and we called to imbrace it, another to believe that Christ according to the compleate and full will of God, hath laid downe his life for us in particular to purchase for us both grace and glory. Proportionable to the perswasion a man hath of Gods willingnesse to be mercifull, is his perswasion of the sufficiency of Christs satisfaction: and proportionable to his perswasion that God is mercifull to him in the pardon of his sin, is his perswasion that Christ died for him in particular. Justifying faith is not without an apprehension of mercy in Christ to be obtained, but implieth not an apprehension of mercy reaching to the pardon of sin already obtained. It is not without an application of recumbency, reliance, or imbracing, which presupposeth the offer of mercy, in and through Jesus Christ to be received, but the application of particular perswasion, that Christ died for me in particular, as well as for any other, or hath purchased for me grace and glory, is not required in justifying faith. Some have affirmed, that faith whereby I believe that Christ died for me, is the foundation of faith whereby I believe in Christ: but I should desire better proof than their bare word for it, seeing the Scripture makes the mercifull offer of salvation in Christ to the burdened, hungry and thirsty, the ground of this affiance, and that perswasion (according to their positions) may be in good and bad, them that never shall be justified, neither will, nor can rest upon Christ for salvation. To believe that Christ is an all-sufficient Saviour, and that salvation is offered to me in his name, is lesse then to believe in Christ for remission of sins; and in order of nature goeth before it. But to believe that according to the purpose of God Christ is my Redeemer, who hath purchased for me in particular grace and remission of sins and eternall redemption, and hath actually reconciled me unto God, this is the consequent of resting upon Christ for salvation, and cannot be believed according to the Scripture, unlesse a

man doe first believe in Christ: and according as men rest upon Christ superficially or soundly with a soveraigne and well-rooted affiance, so they believe the other. For when we reade in Scripture, that Christ tasted of death for every man, Heb. 2. 9. died for all, 2 Cor. 5. 15. is the reconciliation for the sins of the whole world, 1 Joh. 2. 2. shed his bloud for many, Mat. 26. 28. gave his life for the ransome of many, Mat. 20. 28. Mar. 10. 45. purchased the Church by his blood, Act. 20. 28. Ephes. 5. 25. gave himselfe for us all, Tit. 2. 14. Rom 8 32. for his people, Mat. 1. 21. for his sheepe, Joh. 10. 15. for them that were given unto him of the Father, Joh. 17 9, 19. In these and such like passages, by All, the World, Many and Us are meant men in Covenant, partakers of the benefits of Christ, redeemed from all iniquity, and purified unto him as a peculiar people, delivered from this present evill world, Gal. 1. 4. that they might live unto God, 2 Cor. 5. 15. Peter saith to the Jewes that crucified Christ, Unto you first, God having raised up his Sonne Jesus, sent him to blesse you, in turning away every one of you from your sinnes. But he spake to them who were in Covenant, the children of the Prophets, and of the Covenant; and as they were in Covenant, so God raised up Christ for them, which cannot be referred to the impetration of righteousnesse, but the application of Christs death in some sort. Otherwise, if it be observed, that the Apostle speaks of the Jews according to the present state, when Christ was incarnate, or actually raised from the dead, I thinke the greatest Patrons of universall redemption will not affirme, that Christ died for every man good and bad, believer or Infidell, obstinate and rebellious, to purchase for them actuall reconciliation on Gods part, according to that state wherein they stood, when Christ came into the world, or was raised from the dead.

Once againe, it is objected, that if this proposition, Christ died for all men be not the ground of particular affiance, it can have no ground at all, neither promise of mercy absolute nor conditionall, generall nor speciall. But already it hath been shewed, that bare assent or belief that Christ died for all men cannot be the ground, much lesse the only ground of justifying faith, and it may further be made evident by these reasons.

First, That is the foundation of faith, whereupon particular affiance leaneth or is immediately grounded. But no mans particular

 JUNE 1917

Dupont, who looked like a Spanish beauty well past her prime, dealt in masculine "futures," and was gowned from Paris.

Ned Angell had bored her with accounts of Hope. It gave her and Cora a certain satisfaction to perceive the girl, on her entrance, a dim little thing, obviously gauche.

Dim she was, gasping for breath, like a fresh-landed minnow, in her new element. Ned could not strike a spark from her, and he did like coruscations, fireworks. A part of Hope's prettiness was an extreme delicacy of complexion, waxlike almost; even her mouth was only pink. When she felt dashed or ill it was as though a fine grey ash had fallen on her. It fell on her now; she looked forlorn, and the odd gown she had chosen, admirably suited to her glowing mood, seemed sombre. It was of black lace, and her slippers were of soft blue satin; a ridiculous blue rose blossomed on her shoulder, and a black chiflon band encircled her head, with a fluffy bow that was meant to be perky. It had slipped a bit, and sat over one eye, making her look extraordinarily lost and neglected, but very quaint. Ned, beside her, felt humorously despairing. He would have to hand her over to the men with whom she must dance like—like a sick kitten, instead of "permitting them the privilege." He did not apply the epithet harshly; no one could feel harsh toward a poor little kitten.

He wondered why she attracted him at all. Sometimes, so did she. Undoubtedly the attraction existed; more, perhaps, in her absence than otherwise. He always went back to her, as though to look at her once more and confirm a previous impression, or perhaps hoping that at last she might realize some subtle anticipation. That she literally never heeded him at all, neither his comings nor his goings, was part of the charm. He could not imagine her waiting for him, even unconsciously. During an interim she would go on about her own affairs, just being herself. And it might be she would develop a new phase, and he should not miss it, He had had so many love affairs of all kinds, he was not sure but this was a new kind—when he was away from her.

They danced the first together, of course; her little blue satin feet were light on the floor. As her card was not half filled, he left her then to remedy the matter. She subsided into a seat, pale, but evidently of stoic courage. She was looking at the patronesses, with a touch of sly deliberation in her eye, when Mary and Mrs. Patten found her and swept down on her with subdued rustlings and laughter. It was charming to see her eyes at once darken and light up and the animation flow back to her face. The missing colour note was supplied to her tonal ensemble. And she wanted to kiss Mary and Lisbeth; her eyes said it, her mouth said it, but without words. That kissing expression was what made Tony Yorke, who had been watching her with mingled pity and amusement, get up from his chair and go in search of Ned. He decided suddenly he wanted to be presented to her.

"Thank heaven," Hope was saying to Mary. "Now I want you to impress all these people indelibly on my mind by telling me something horribly scandalous about each of them. Begin with the patronesses."

They did begin with the patronesses, who represented every shade of the town's evolution toward "society" as Mary explained. From Mrs. Manners—small, withered, terrifically dignified in her venerable Vandyke gown of velvet draped with real, if soiled, old lace—who had brought her country traditions with her from England along with the gown and preserved them inviolate through twenty years of struggle with the rawness of a frontier town, to Mrs Lockwood, a walking advertisement of her husband's trade as to avoirdupols, and his prosperity as to diamonds, they presented a complete social microcosm.

"Who," asked Lisbeth, "is that small, fair woman with Mrs. Lockwood? Have I ever seen her before"

"Perhaps not, she is only visiting. Mrs. Lockwood caught her in Banff. She," Mary smiled, "is a lady-in-waiting to the Queen of Norway. Now, she's talking to Amy Bellwood. The Bellwood girls used to peddle milk, and I always fancy Amy carries her muff like a quart measure!"

"Cat!" said Hope. "Go on!" But Ned interrupted, with a tall, brown-eyed young man in tow, who looked at her with an air of recognition.

ER name he knew; his mind always placed an interrogation point after it. He had seen her, times innumerable. It was characteristic of the difference in them; she had seen him, consciously, just once. He knew what she did; vaguely, where she came from; very definitely, what she looked like; and not at all what she was. He had always been curious about her, but only now in a personal way. At first, he had thought of her as "a girl Ned Angell took about;" later she was "the girl with the feet;" pretty feet she had, with a singularly light and happy way of hurrying along. Then he had seen her, in Edgerton's car. Now Tony Yorke was the child of his age, an unconscious worshipper of success. Edgerton's interest in the girl—whatever nature it partook of—invested her with a sort of value, a speculative value, one might say. There must be something in her. Edgerton and Ned Angell—extraordinary combination! She must be a queer little devil. He reserved judgment, in the way men do; a way that allows them to feel very generous since such a reserved judgment is tantamount to no more than a suspended sentence. Even admitting the worst, she must be one of those really rare women who wear their rue with a difference. Edgerton's manner to her convinced him of that. It did not quite convince him of anything else. In respect to Ned Angell, their presence here did convince Yorke; he could have echoed Mary Darke's dictum from that—she must have snubbed Ned! But Edgerton was different; he was a big man in his way, and would act like one. Well, there was the situation. He rather wanted to be on the inside of it all, and was quite willing to grin with her at Ned. But after all, that sudden look of hers made him forget every other reason, and simply wish to meet her because he did wish to meet her. And, his vision clear for a moment, he saw both Ned and Edgerton explained in himself. But unfortunately such moments of clairvoyance do not last. For one thing, few of us are willing to admit in cold blood that we are just exactly like other people.

IS moment lasted the evening. Hope, looking up suddenly, smiled straight into his eyes, and held out her hand, quite unnecessarily. "But I know you," she said, and thought at the moment she was telling the truth. She had seen him once before, that was all. So she rose and let music carry her away with him, without even looking back at Mary and Lisbeth Patten.

Falling in love is not a faithfully descriptive phrase. One soars up to love as to a sunlighted pinnacle above a world of grey fog. Wings of enchantment are lent for the occasion. The kingdoms of the world are spread out before the transported victim, who promptly spurns them. The falling occurs subsequently.

Then the bruised and bleeding creature, who so lately was a god, sits painfully for awhile estimating injuries, and presently begins to pick up the pieces. Generally, it is found they can be got together in workable shape, with considerable effort, but nothing will ever be quite the same again. But if the real gods have had pity, they have surreptitiously put a grain of common-sense into the new mixing, so that the next time love is achieved step by step, as an Alpine climber mounts, one takes pains to make love a little footing at the very top, where it may rest secure.

But the reason why any one falls in love cannot be told, for it is different in every case.

Tony Yorke had charm, a gift that no man has a right to. That is because he can go to the woman he desires and plead his own cause with no more shame than his conscience puts on him. A woman needs charm to bring her choice to her. When some wicked godmother gives it to a man she means mischief. It is an alien element and means trouble. By virtue of that misplaced quality, Tony Yorke could not look at a woman without his glance telling her that she was, of all the world, the one person he would rather spend the next hour with. He also looked at her as though they were sharing some rather amusing secret, only they two, against all the world.

When he gave Hope that reassuring, confidential message with his eyes, hers answered with the same joyful intelligence. She believed every word he did not say. She dragged from the recesses of her soul all the garments of romance that had been hidden there for almost all the years of her life, and in the space of one evening neatly cut and fitted them to his outward mea sure and hung them about him willy-nilly. And with a sweet shameless pride she did not care if the whole ballroom knew it.

As a matter of fact, no one knew it. She did not know it herself, It is the obvious thing escapes the world longest. Even Ned Angell felt rather glad that Hope had brightened up. She quite did him credit, though he did feel a slight, indefinable unease. Perhaps because he had at last found the expected, unexpected different phase in her.

He looked at her closely when he took her to supper, or as closely as he could. Ned was the least bit muddled. Hope knew he drank, sometimes; but she had never before had direct evidence of it. He had the conventional decency for that, But now she was absent-minded, and he saw it, and wanted to attract her attention; he talked louder than was his wont. Eating her cold chicken placidly, and aware through her lowered lashes of every turn of Tony Yorke's head at the far end of the long trestled table, where he sat with Cora Shane, Hope woke to a sudden horrified consciousness of what Ned was saying. More, she felt what he was about to say; what he had said was nothing.

"Ned," she said in a low voice that was like a splash of cold water, be quiet, or I shall leave the table." It stopped him on a word; he bit Mrs. Shane's name in two like a cherry, and was silent. Hope looked about swiftly. No one else had noticed. She looked at Ned; he was sulking, wearing an air of injured innocence. His smoothly-barbered cheek and shining hair, his immaculate shirt-bosom and cuffs, everything about him so clean and orderly and daintily nice, contributed to that expression; and all these things he had in common with every one who sat there, eating, drinking, laughing; and all these things, somehow, seemed to make what he had been saying absurd, These people, so carefully composed outwardly, did not look as though there was any evil in them, any more than Ned did. But he made her, for one rather horrible moment, fancy (Continued on next page)

I am their mother; who shall bar me from them?

Then bring me to their sights; I'll bear thy blame,

And take thy office from thee, on my peril.

Brak. No, madam, no, I may not leave it so:

I am bound by oath, and therefore pardon me.

Exit Lieutenant.

Stan. Let me but meet you, ladies, one hour hence,

And I'll salute your Grace of York as mother,

And reverend looker-on of two fair queens.

[To the Duchess of Gloucester.] Come, madam, you must straight to Westminster,

There to be crowned Richard's royal queen.

Q. Eliz. Ah! cut my lace asunder,

That my pent heart may have some scope to beat,

Or else I swoon with this dead-killing news.

Anne. Despiteful tidings! O! unpleasing news!

Dor. Be of good cheer: mother, how fares your Grace?

Q. Eliz. O, Dorset! speak not to me, get thee gone!

Death and destruction dog thee at thy heels;

Thy mother's name is ominous to children.

If thou wilt outstrip death, go cross the seas,

And live with Richmond, from the reach of hell:

In your behalf, to meet you on the way:

O my accursed womb, the bed of death!

412 When the shepherd boy went to his home he called to mind the great beauty of Chuqui-llantu. She had aroused his love, but he was saddened by the thought that it must be love without hope. He took up his flute and played such heart-breaking music that it made him shed many tears, and he lamented, saying: 'Ay! ay! ay! for the unlucky and sorrowful shepherd, abandoned and without hope, now approaching the day of your death, for there can be no remedy and no hope.' Saying this, he also went to sleep.

The shepherd's mother lived in Laris, and she knew, by her power of divination, the cause of the extreme grief into which her son was plunged, and that he must die unless she took order for providing a remedy. So she set out for the mountains, and arrived at the shepherd's hut at sunrise. She looked in and saw her son almost moribund, with his face covered with tears. She went in and awoke him. When he saw who it was he began to tell her the cause of his grief, and she did what she could to console him. She told him not to be downhearted, because she would find a remedy within a few days. Saying this she departed and, going among the rocks, she gathered certain herbs which are believed to be cures for grief. Having collected a great quantity she began to cook them, and the cooking was not finished before the two princesses appeared at the entrance of the hut. For Chuqui-llantu, when she was rested, had set out with her sister for a walk on the green slopes of the mountains, taking the direction of the hut. Her tender heart prevented her from going in any other direction. When they arrived they were tired, and sat down by the entrance. Seeing an old dame inside they saluted her, and asked her if she could give them anything to eat. The mother went down on her knees and said she had nothing but a dish of herbs. She brought

 The PRINTS OF HANTOUN A Complete Novelette by T. S. Stribling Author of "The Governor of Cape Haitien," "Cricket," etc.

N FORT DE FRANCE, Martinique, Professor Henry Poggioli, American  psychologist and criminologist, struck  up a very pleasant friendship with Marian de Creviceau, a gentleman with a  fellow interest in the philosophic aspects  of crime.

The Chevalier de Creviceau, following the general temperament of the French in Martinique, elaborated innumerable theories  about his hobby without putting one to the  touchstone of investigation. He had become a theoretical spider spinning his web not to catch flies, but to indulge a passion  for geometry.

So, at nine o’clock in the morning, while Fort de France lay under a downpour of  sunshine already torrid, these two gentlemen sat at dejeuner at one of the little tables  which had been placed on the wide pavement in front of the Hotel Coloniale discussing the highly theoretical question of  how far the architectural surroundings of a  people influenced their crimes.

The reason they had picked on this peculiar topic was that the street in which they sat spread before them a glare of multicolors which perhaps could not be duplicated anywhere else in the world. Some of the houses were painted in blazing blue and  red bands, like a Brobdingnagian barber  sign; the surface of others were enormous  zig-zags of yellow and vermilion; some  were struck off in diagonals of umber and  orange. The whole street vibrated with these hot clashing colors and screwed up  the impression of heat to a degree almost  unbearable.

“The Prints of Hantoun,” copyright, 1925, by T. S. Stribling.

Poggioli, with his American flair for simplicity, suggested that this futuristic decoration would tend to produce crimes as bizarre and grotesque as the pied and  streaked surroundings in which they were  committed. But the Chevalier de Creviceau, with French subtlety, took exactly an opposite view. He held a theory analagous to that of Stanley Hall in “Adolescence:”  Just as the vicarious criminal experience  obtained during youth by novel reading  tended to produce sober-minded men, so  these clashing colors would tend to produce  simplicity in the approach to life of all the  Martiniquais whether criminal or normal  members of society. He reinforced this opinion with humorous cleverness by declaring that the apocalyptic vision of St. John on Patmos described Heaven itself as a highly colored place not so very dissimilar  to Fort de France. 156

Say, have I thy consent that they shall die?

Buck. Give me some little breath, some pause, dear lord,

Before I positively speak in this:

I will resolve you herein presently.

Cate. [Aside to another.] The king is angry: see, he gnaws his lip.

Page:An authentic narrative of the extraordinary career of James Allen, the female husband.djvu/17

 about to practise upon a young and confiding girl, none can tell; but his surviving associate states, that she conceived herself, on the day preceding that which was to seal her fate for ever, the happiest of women—being about to unite her destiny to one so young, so handsome, so corresponding in age with herself, and whose habits of industry were so eminently calculated to ensure her permanent happiness and respectability in society. On the following morning they started for church, accompanied by one or two private friends, and the marriage was duly performed. Certainly to a reflecting mind nothing can be more revolting than the idea of one fellow-creature, at the altar of a church, and in the presence of his Creator, pledging himself to another in a fictitious character, and particularly during that solemn injunction which requires them to declare, before the knot is indissolubly tied, that if either know of any lawful impediment to the marriage, that they then and there fully make known the same, as they shall answer the contrary upon the great day of judgment. What must have been the frame of mind of James Allen at that moment, when commiting [sic] so irreparable a fraud, under such solemn circumstances, is, upon reflection, a matter of astonishment and regret. Strong indeed must have been that mind, and the motives with which it must have been actuated, to have induced a rational being to have risked a measure at once so unnatural and so unwarrantable, with every possible chance against its success. Braving all this, however, he did so risk it: how well he supported the deception the reader will learn in the sequel.

After the ceremony was performed the new married couple, as is usual, partook of a wedding dinner, together with a select number of their friends. The evening was spent with the greatest hilarity, by all except the bridegroom, who appeared far from en-

Richard the Third, IV. ii  Stan. Know, my loving lord,

The Marquess Dorset, as I hear, is fled

To Richmond, in the parts where he abides.

K. Rich. Come hither, Catesby: rumour it abroad

That Anne, my wife, is very grievous sick;

I will take order for her keeping close.

Inquire me out some mean poor gentleman,

Whom I will marry straight to Clarence' daughter:

The boy is foolish, and I fear not him.

Look, how thou dream'st! I say again, give out

That Anne, my queen, is sick, and like to die.

About it; for it stands me much upon

To stop all hopes whose growth may damage me.

I must be married to my brother's daughter,

Or else my kingdom stands on brittle glass.

Murther her brothers, and then marry her!

Uncertain way of gain! But I am in

 I'm sorry, mademoiselle. I respect you, dear—but when it comes to clothes I must say you don't know what you're talking about!

But what have you got against the yellow dress?

Much too formal! It's just a little political dinner papa said the men won't dress. We'll be only eight in all a few antiques from the Foreign Office  and a couple of senators. It'll be a regular wilderness of whiskers!

Gisele! If you please!

What's the matter?

If you're not a bit more careful in your language, you'll never get along in Rome, my dear. Please remember that you're to be very nearly an official personage there. The daughter of an ambassador is somebody. Every word of yours will be noticed and criticized, you may be sure.

 wait until I gave them the opportunity to come to the altar; then there would be a rush; they brought them in chairs; on cots; and on pillows; the blind, lame, halt, deaf, dumb, and the paralytic; those dying with consumption, tumors, cancer, blood poisoning, catarrh of the stomach and lungs, or all through the blood; broken bones and everything else—all chronic diseases that could not be cured by any earthly power—they laid them at the feet of Jesus, and as at Peter’s great revival they tried to get near enough for his shadow to fall on them, so it was. here—everyone tried to get the nearest me, like those at the Pool of Bethesda, to get into the water first. One after another they were healed; sometimes in an hour every one would be up rejoicing. The people looking on saw large tumors and goiters go, and cancers disappear; children got up and walked, that never had walked before. They saw the deaf hear, the dumb speak, those that had never heard or spoken before. They wondered and were amazed; and they gave glory to God for His great power and love for suffering humanity.

The Police Force took quite an interest in bringing the afflicted in the ambulance and carrying them in on stretchers. One man was perfectly helpless with inflammatory rheumatism. He could not move his fingers, and was in great pain with fever. He was saved and healed, and walked upon the platform, then walked out, and down to the Police Station. When the Officers came for him he was gone. They laughed and took the cot, and went out. Infidels and all kinds of sinners who had never before believed in God, were convinced of the reality of the religion of Jesus, and were converted.

A doctor, one of the finest men in the city, when he saw so many of his patients healed, was converted and became an earnest worker.

Men and women of all kinds, both business men and others, came for healing and. received the double cure. The superintendent of the Business Colleges of the Tri-Cities brought his father from a distance, who had to use an ear trumpet. He went away with his son with his hearing restored. Scores of Catholics were converted and healed. One Nun who had been lame and afflicted with heart disease for fifteen years, and could get no

 help anywhere, was saved and perfectly cured. She came back and gave glory to God.

Some Jews, one the wife of a Rabbi, came for healing. When she first came she asked if she could not be healed without Jesus. I told her no, she could not. She said she did not want anything to do with Jesus. She was badly afflicted, and had suffered much for many years. I talked some to her, and then she went away; but she came back in a few days, was saved and healed, and confessed Christ in public, praising Him for His wonderful works.

Many Swedish and German people and other nationalities came. We could not understand each other, but they were healed and converted.

Two boys were brought from the deaf and dumb school. The deaf and dumb spirits were cast out, and they both talked and heard perfectly. Three mutes came—two men and one woman. All received their hearing and speech. The woman was healed of other diseases, two of which were heart trouble and tumor. When her husband saw she was healed, and that the tumor was gone, he cried and praised the Lord.

A woman in Moline came with a cancer; she had been given up to die by all the physicians. Her mother died with cancer. Her clothes just hung on her—she could not bear anything to touch her, because the least pressure would make her vomit. When I saw the condition she was in, so swollen and deformed, I threw back her wrap and told the people to look at her, she was dying with a cancerous tumor, but the Lord was going to heal her and take it all away right then. She could not kneel down, so I told her to sit on the altar, and that God was going to heal her now. I laid my hands upon her and in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, I commanded the unclean spirits to go out of her. All the pain and misery, the cancer, and the tumor, all passed away. She arose before all who had been watching, from the gallery down, praising the Lord, and saying she was perfectly healed. She came back and testified to being made whole and well.

Shouts arose from the gallery and all over the hall. Strong men wept, and men and women came and knelt at the altar saying, “I believe there is a God; I want to be a Christian.”

A lady came from Iowa, almost dead with tumor; she was given up by the specialists of Chicago and St. Louis. The pain

 was so great she could not be still one minute. When she came to the meeting and to the altar, we laid on hands and in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, commanded the tumorous spirit with all its works and pain, to come out of her. She was made whole and arose shouting and praising God, who had so wonderfully healed her. She stayed several days without a sign of the tumor, gave many ringing testimonies, and started home to tell what great things the Lord had done for her. The audience looked on in wonder and amazement, at the mighty miracles God was performing at our hands.

A woman brought her boy, six years old, full of tumors all over his body, the most awful sight you ever saw, so deformed. They, were in his throat and in his windpipe, he had a bad cough with it, nearly choking him to death; he had been treated by twenty doctors and had three operations performed. He could not rest a minute, night or day. From the first time we prayed for him he never suffered any more, but slept like a baby! Was quiet day and night. The people could see how fast the tumors were disappearing. It was a great mountain, but in the name of Jesus it was removed and cast into the sea.

Scores of deaf people of all ages were healed—those born deaf, from babies to forty or fifty years of age. Others whose eardrums had been destroyed in different ways, had them restored, and were made to hear. A lady from South Dakota had been deaf in one ear for forty years, and her arm had been paralyzed for nineteen years; she could not raise it to her head, but she was instantly healed.

Over two thousand came or were brought to the altar. We prayed for her; and most all were converted or reclaimed. Nearly all were healed of from one: to a dozen chronic diseases. Hundreds were converted and healed, at the same time; receiving the double cure; Salvation for Soul and Body; like the paralytic son to whom Christ said: “Son, thy sins are forgiven thee; rise, take up they bed and walk.” “Which is easier to say, “Thy sins are forgiven thee,” or, to say, “Arise and walk.” You see one was as easy for the Lord to do as the other, and He did both at once, for He Himself took our infirmities, and bear our sicknesses.” Matt. 8. 17.

The Lord intended the Healing of Soul and Body to go together, that the world might believe He was the Same (Heb.

 13. 8), and believe our report, and know that the Lord loved us as He loved His Son.

There was a boy seven years old, had never walked; he was born insane, blind, deaf, and dumb, and was always pounding his head and beating himself like the maniac amongst the tombs. They tried everything, including the best medical help, but the doctors could not locate his sufferings, and they said he would never have any sense; but praise the Lord, he says, “I am the God of all flesh, is there anything too hard for me?”

Praise his holy name, “All things are possible to him that believeth.” We told the parents if they would give themselves and child into the hands of the Lord, I had faith that the Lord would heal him; they were Catholics. The Lord has performed the greatest miracle ever known; there is no case of healing in bible record so wonderful as this boy.

The man born blind was considered a great wonder; then the man at the Beautiful Gate, who was healed of weak ankles, and who, was born lame, was considered a great miracle; but this child was born blind, deaf, and dumb, and had no mind; now he can hear and see perfectly. God has given him a bright, intelligent mind; he laughs and plays, and walks around in front of the pulpit every day in view of all the congregation; before he was healed he had spasms, as many as twenty a day, but now he is well and happy. Im healing this child God has put his seal on this work, and proven to the world that I am called and sent of God, that the Lord is using me in a wonderful way to do his will in these last days.

The power of Elijah is working among the people with mighty miracles, signs, and wonders, showing that the coming of the Lord is near at hand, even at the door. I. Thes. iv. 16. He is preparing the Bride, mounting her on the White Horse of Power, ready to meet the Bridegroom.

PAGE 36 Best Nerve Specialist in England Was Consulted

rvous disorders frequently result from injury to the nerves in acci- dents or because of the shock to the system. :

The writer of this letter was corralling a bunch of eclts when his horse fell over a barbed-wire fence, and he was earried to the Royal Inland Hos- pital, Kamloops, B.C., in an unconscious condition, remaining in this state for three weeks,

Not being able to obtain restoration of the internal nerves which con- trol the action of the digestive and other vital organs, he travelled to Europe and consulted England’s greatest nerve specialist, Sir Victor Hors- ley. Relief was only temporary, in spite of many treatments used.

His letter gives the facts briefly, and tells how he was finally cured by using Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food. Can you imagine any more severe test of this great nerve restorative ?

Mr. Henry F. Venn, Cefu Ranch, Malakwa, B.C., writes: “Dr. Chase's Nerve Food has restored my nervous system and given me new health. Having met with a severe accident seven years ago, from which 1 was unconscious, and which left my nerves in a very sore plight, I was treated by doctors galore, and consulted one of the greatest nerve spe- clalists in England, but nothing seemed to do me much good. Hypo- phosphites and, in fact, all and every kind of nerve mixture in almost every form was used, but never with more than temporary benefit.

“But Dr, Chase's Nerve Food has acted very differently, for it™has built up my nervous system until I feel like my old self again. If this medicine will do for others what it has done for me I shall not regret having written this letter, I have recommended the Nerve Food person- ally to many, and shall always esteem its great restorative value.”

Nome,

a skeleton at the feast, a skeleton for every feaster. It was as though each who supped has a skeleton beneath the table, held firmly underfoot, and Ned had wantonly tried to drag one above-board. Hope saw Society, in a glimpse. Then she looked, openly, at Tony Yorke. There was something so frank about his smiling eyes, his fresh, tanned face and he looked good. She breathed freely again. He met gaze, and telephoned her a quick message. The next? She nodded.

They did not dance together. Instead, moved by a common impulse toward solitude a deux, they found an extraordinarily little dusty stairway leading into the darkness of the roof, at the upper end of the hall, and sat there on Tony's handkerchief, peering through the half open door at the dancers, like an audience of two looking on at the pageant of life, asking no more than each other. It was draftily cool there, but they did not feel it. Hope drew the tail of her lacy gown over her shoulders; an Unnecessary precaution. His mere presence warmed her; his sleeve touching her bare arm; more, the light in his brown eyes when, speaking, they bent their faces close in such a movement as preludes a kiss. They bantered each other a little; she loved to see him laugh, because he wrinkled his nose a trifle and looked as though everything were much funnier than one dared to acknowledge openly. She was so immensely lighthearted; and it seemed, absurdly, to have something to do with the way his hair grew off his temples; she loved his hair. No doubt Delilah wept when she put the shears to Samson, for every woman has a weakness for that thick, springy hair which seems to denote youth and vitality in a man. And she loved the laughter in his eyes.

Ah, loved the gay and gallant spirit she read into him, of which these were the visible signs. But he loved only the softness of her mouth, the virginal delicacy of her low bosom, where it sloped gently under the shadowy lace, and her delicious, remote nearness. His fine se gauged her; he knew at once that hers slept, or only stirred in sleep, while yet her spirit reached invisible, fearless tendrils toward him. He was not sensual; he was sensuous, fatally open to either appeal. There was a brief conflict in his mind, while past conclusions battled with present conviction. For she was not at all what he had thought her, but she might yet be many things. How would the die fall? That he meant to see.

HE dance was a romp, Mrs. Shane played, for it was an extra, They could see her, face averted carelessly from the keyboard, strong supple hands commanding the keys with splendid precision. She, too, was watching the dancers.

"Look," said Tony softly. "That's her husband!" He went by his wife with Mrs. Dupont on his arm, Her regal height dwarfed the little man; his stout bow legs bore him gallantly, moving with a deft precision that gave the final touch of burlesque. In his wife's eyes was a complete, impersonal appreciation of every detail of his appearance, a terrible and humourous appraisal, and a sort of mild and perpetual and, yes, wicked astonishment. He was her husband! Her fingers were little devils, casting nets for the enchanted feet of her auditors; like the children of Hamelin, they leaped to her playing, without volition. Cora Shane was a genius in her way, and her way was the playing of popular music. So she played, and her husband danced, a figure of fun to the world. Tony laughed quietly. It amused him a great deal. Such things did. Even while he was most aware of Hope beside him. She was watching, also.

"They're funny, aren't they?" she said. Yet she did not see what he saw; to her they were funny in an entirely different way, merely as human beings. But he was comparing what he saw with what he knew, She forgot them; the figures on the floor became only a pretty tapestry, of dark heads and fair, powder shoulders, trailing satins, masses of clear black and white. She and Tony were alone, ringed about in a fairy circle. To have stayed like that forever! Even a handclasp would have been too much. It was strange, but he knew all her mind. He made her tell him about herself, a little. He even spoke of Edgerton, and of Ned, and watched for her colour to change, but it did not.

The figures on the floor wove and shifted. A couple, nearing their hiding place, swung out of the measured rhythm; the man stopped, handed a recovered handkerchief to the girl, and paused a moment, his face full to them. Hope leaned forward, suddenly tense, her upper lip lifted. "Who is that?" she asked very softly.

"Which? Oh—Jim Sanderson. Know him?" Tony turned to her, noting that her cheeks had now the distress signal he had tried to provoke earlier.

"No," she said, still softly, with a definite note that was like the closing of a door. "Do you?"

"Long time," answered Tony, "He's rather a good scout."

She did not answer, and be spoke of something else and forgot, momentarily.

"I've cut a dance," said Hope presently. "Ned will be furious. And there's a man looking for me. I forget his name, but duty must be done!"

"You will give me one more, later," he said, not questioningly, and they rose, more than half reluctant, She turned her face up to him.

"I like you,” he said, with the naivete whereby he won women,

"I like you, too,” said Hope, in a breathless whisper, and stooped through the little door. A distracted looking youth came up and bore her off.

The dance was

Section A: Editing The sending of the nest is only practiced with clean birds, even if the mother is torn, and even if there is only one chick or one egg, it is necessary to send it.

Section B: Editing A ready-made nest, such as pigeons that are raised with humans in houses, and geese and chickens that were purchased in a poultry house, are exempt. However, pigeons from the wild and migratory birds, and birds that were purchased in clay vessels built into walls where birds are kept, as well as in wells and orchards, are obligated to be sent. This is only if they have not been raised above the eggs at all, from the time they have been laid. But if they have been raised above them, if these places are his, he is entitled to their pasture, and it becomes ready-made for him and exempt.

Section C: Editing And in every place where we find them, whether in a tree, in the ground, or in wells, caves, the sea, or on top of a person's head, or on top of another person's head, whether in a public domain or in a private domain, it is necessary to send them.

Section D: Editing One must send the mother until she is removed from under his hand, and only then take the chicks. If he wants to cut her wings before sending her so that she cannot fly away, he is not allowed. Rather, he must send her immediately with her wings so that she can fly. And after she is removed from his hand, he may take her if he desires, and if he cuts her wings, she may be kept until her wings grow and then sent.

Section E: Editing If he wants to take the mother and send the chicks, he is not allowed to send her and bring her back repeatedly, even several times. He must return and send her. However, if he sent her and then took the chicks and returned them to the nest and then brought them back again, he is exempt from sending her.

Section F: Editing If he took the mother above the chicks and did not send her, he must send her and he is exempt.

Section G: Editing If the eggs were strange, or the chicks were blooming, or they are torn, or if a male bird crouches on the nest, or if an unclean bird crouches on the eggs of a clean bird, or if a clean bird crouches on the eggs of an unclean bird, he is exempt from sending (Laws of Ritual Slaughter 13:10).

Section H: Editing If she perched on eggs that are not of her species, and they are clean, he must send her, and if he does not send her, he is not culpable (Laws of Ritual Slaughter 13:11).

Section I: Editing If she had a towel or the wings of another bird touching her, or there were two rows of eggs one on top of the other, and her wings touching the upper row, whether she was on top of the mother or if the male bird was on top of the nest, and the mother on top of the male bird, he must send her. And if he does not send her, he is not culpable (Laws of Ritual Slaughter 13:14).
