not rest day or night; the itching was
so severe that it waked me out of

rest. I actually scrubbed the very :

the affected places were so sore I
could scarcely walk with any easo or
comfort. The places were a solid raised

until they would bleed. I tried home

How a Nyctalops Repaid a Favor
Shown Him by a Young
Bank Clerk.
Jy FLORENCE LILLIAN HENDERSON.
With the magic of a smilo Walter
Davis ruled all the little world of
MiUville. He had started in at the
bank as messnnsrer and at twnntv.tum
bright, intelligent. energetic, lind
worked his way into the favor of every
person connected with that institution
from the president down to the
janitor?save one.
The exception was Bruce Lowell.
He seemed always to have envied Walter
his rapid advancement and popularity.
He was a dark-featured, sinister-appearing
man. secretive and surly.
If the light-hearted Walter had more
closely sconced the surface of affairs,
he would have noticed that Lowell
scowled at him most particularly when
he was in the company of Viola Merton.
the daughter of the president, of
the bank and the belle of the town.
Walter was always doing kind
things and making other people happy.
It was no marvel to anybody, therefore.
when one day. going home to supper
from the bank. he. stopped to
speak to a blind man slowly making
his way along the street.
"fan I help you. friend?" inquired
Walter, In Ills warm-hearted, impulsive
way.
"Why. yes." replied the beggar. "I
want to be set right on the road to
Clyde."
"Why, that Is fully ten miles away,
and darkness will overtake you beforo

Walter.
"Oh. I'm nil right in the dark."
rather enigmatically explained the
blind man.
"Why don't you take the train?"
asked Walter.
"Because 1 have no money." was the
blunt response.
"Hut I have, and there you are!"
cried Walter, handing the mendicant

a two-dollar bill. "Keep rljdit on as
you are headed, and you'll reach tho
depot."
"Hold on." spoke the blind man.
with a queer Krateful catch in his
voice. "A little silver will do."
"No. no?you nre welcome' to what
1 have Riven you." declared Walter.
"1 can spare it."
"I want to know your name, anyhow,"
persisted the mendicant.
"Walter Davis."
"I'll remember it. This is the most
timely help I have ever received."
"Glad of it." snld Walter heartily,
and went on his way, immediately forgetting
fiis kind deed, but vfollowed by
the ardently-expressed wishes of his
pensioner that, "he would have all
kinds of good luck."
The parting benlson of the blind
man. however, did not follow out. Instead.
bad luck, indeed, came to the
young bank clerk. The following day
the manager of the bank called him
into his private office, serious-faced
and somewhat distant In his manner.
"Davis," he said, "I am sorry to tell
you that you will have to take n leave
of absence until the return of the
president of the bank, Mr. Morton."
"Why. what does this mean?" exclaimed
Walter, staring vaguely.
"Just this: Only yourself and Mr.
Merton have keys to the bank. Coming
from another town late In the
morning. I have found no use for one.
Last night some one entered the bank
and removed the money and notes we
keep in the cashier's box. It is not
usually locked up in the vault, as the
sum it holds is generally small. However.
the notes and some two hundred
dollars are missing."
"Do you dare " began Walter.
flaring up instantly, but the manager
silenced hint with the words:
"No one suspects you, but the bank

mii \ u?wi o m?iu j \s\m i vn|HMi.Tiwit; itn llin
possessor of a key to the institution.
They demand an Investigation, and
your temporary resignation until Mr.
Merton returns."
The matter was plainly put and
Walter could not rebel. The story got
about town. No one accused hint
openly, hut there were hinted suspicions.
and to say the least he felt uncomfortable.
Old Mr. Merton was a crabbed, suspicious
man, and Walter wondered
how Vloln would take It. He went to
a lawyer, but tho latter advised him
not. to stir thlncs un.
Walter kept up a brave front Innocence
armed him against real fretti-ig,
and hope made him cheery and
bright as usual.
"I have good news for you," announced
his lawyer, appearing at the
Davis home just after dusk one evening.
lie was quite excited, and h"
had a companion at whom Walter
glanced curiously and then recognlrtd,
* :
"Why, I've seen >*>u before." Bald
Walter.
"Yob. you gave me some help about
a week ago," replied the blind man.
"1 happened in tt^w today. I learned
of your trouble and I found your
lawyer. You called me 'friend'?do
you remember?" asked the mendicant,
with a noticeable huskiness in his
throat.
"Well, aren't we friends?" smiled
Walter
"I'm going to prove It. Go ahead.
Mr. Lawyer. You've described that
fellow. Lowell. He tallies. Give mo
a sight of him."
"What's that? A Bight of him?"
cried Walter. '
"You will understand later. Walter,"
promised the lawyer. "Just run us
against Lowell, some way."
Walter felt that there was something
mysterious in the proceedings,
llr. noted also that the blind man accompanied
them at quite a brisk gait
and without guidance.
It was a moonless night. Suddenly,
as they turned a corner, they came

strolling along by himself. The blind
man took a step forward, bent his
glance on the approaching figure, and
cried out sharply.
"That is the man!"
"You are positive?" questioned the |
lawyer.
"I'd swear to him anywhere," ,
avowed the mendicant. "That man
was one of two men whom I saw en- i
tor the bank at midnight on the night j
of the robbery. His companion unhinged
one of the iron gratings and !
forced up a window. The fellow with
him had a wooden leg."
"Hello! hello! hello!" exclaimed
the lawyer in three different tones of
voice, evincing in turn wonde.\ suspicion
and then triumph. "You didn't
tell me that before. You liavo given
me a tlnal clew."
"What is this nonsense"" demanded
Lowell indignantly, but pale ami trembling.

(lie lawyer.
"Why! but ho is blind," exclaimed j
Walter.
"Yes, day times," said the mendi- i
cant "1 am what is called a nycta- |
lops?I enn see at night."
Tho next morning the lawyer. Wal- j
ter and the mendicant had an inter- !
view with the bank manager. Then '
the lawyer made a hurried visit to a !
neighboring town.
He had remembered that Lowell
had a relative there, an ex-convict, ;
who had but one leg. The man confessed
to the crime when he learned
that otherwise both he and Lowell
would be arrested.
Lowell was given his walking pa- '
pers and disappeared. Somehow th"
story got out. When the bunker and
his daughter returned to MillvlHo, it
was to learn the whole story. Against
his wishes Walter had been put up
as a candidate for a public office, and
was more popular than ever.
"You seem always making people
happy," said Viola a few evenings
later, referring to the blind man
whom Walter had sent again on his
way rejoicing. "I wish I was as fortunate
as you."
"Do you really?" asked Walter
earnestly. "Then begin the good
work, by telling me that you will
make me the happiest of men by returning
my love."
"Oh, Walter," confessed Viola impulsively,
"I did that Ions ago!"

Marking of Sheep.
Means prevailing at present for
marking sheep for the purpose of identification
is unsatisfactory for the reason
that the coal tar or pitch solution
which is made use of has a serious
effect on the wool, not only whcj;
the mark hr.s been made on the hair ;
but all that which is being put through ,
the cleansing process at that time.
Such wool brings a decreased price.
The National Society of Agriculturo
of France lins been investigating the '
matter, and the report of those apnoillted
to do tllo wnrlr mntnint lt1Q
following: It has been proposed to use
aniline colors, but this is even worse,
since the colors do not merely soil
the fleece, but actually dye it. Other
means are not lacking, notably that
of tattooing the ear of the sheep. Also,
a small metallic plate can be fastened
in the ear. as is done with African
sheep to prove that they have been
"clavelizcd," i. e., inoculated with the
special serum which combats their
dangerous eruptive malady, rot or
Hcab. The syndlcul chamber of commerce
and industry advises the Employment
of a color composed of linseed
oil, essence of turpentine and
I'russion blue or similar color. It. recommends
marking on nose, forehead
or nape of neck.

Lesson
(By G. O. SELLERS. Director of Evening
Department The Moody Bible Institute
of Chicago.)
LESSON FOR JANUARY 12
MAN THE CROWN OF CREATION
0
LE8SON TEXT?Genesis 1:2C. 27: 1:7-9;
15-24.
GOLDEN TEXT?"God created man In
his own Image." Gen. 1:27.
Ten times the words, "and God
said" appear In the first chapter of
Genesis. God spake, and 'twas done. |
Now all is in readiness earth and heaven
await his word, "and God said let ;
us make man." It would seem as
though a conference was being held 1
before this momentous evont. Tho |
"let us/ make" is full of suggestion.
That each person of the Triuno God- I
head was present in creation we saw ,
In last week's lesson, and it Is here
still further indicated by the plural
form of tho Hebrew noun for tho
name of God. Rut what pattern shall
wo follow in tho making of man?
Surely only the highest and bent,
hence "in the image of God." This
does not necessarily mean the physical
image, but rather the intellectual t
and spiritual image of God, Bee Col. ,
3:10. Eph. 4:24. John 6.25. God who
is spirit (John 4:25) does manifest
himself in material form (see Phil.
2: (5. lea. G: 1 -4) and similar passages,
and this form resembles the human.
But this "image" (likeness) has been
blurred and marred by sin, James 3:9.
It was, however, perfectly seen in tho
pent-vi .?mu. \ unsi jesuii, ?t*? v or. i
4:4. Ileb. 1:2. 3.
Science at a Pause.
How God created man wo aro not |
told, except that ho was "formed of
the dust of the ground," and to this
day the bodies of men and of nnlmals
consist of the very same elements as
the soil which forms the earth upon '
which they dwell. It Is yet to bo
proved that man came from the lower
animals, and it Is a scientific secret
that at, this point the real leaders
of science are at a pause. The dust
of our bodies is the same as yonder
stars, as the lily of the field, as that
which kings and queens are made.
Hut still there are higher heights,
for God breathed into this man his
own spirit, verse 7, and from this
union of the body and spirit man became
a living soul. Man Is the connecting
link between the material and ]
the Infinite, by tho physical he is re- !
lated to lower nature and by the spiritual
he is related to God.
If tho theory of the rehabilitation
of this earth after the destruction of
thn nri*-!* Hnmitp rn fiPQ la trnn (elmn
1:2-13), we now sen C?o<l In his won- j
drous grace preparing a place for
man's especial abode, vv. 8. 9, 15-24.
The tw accounts of creation In tho
first and second chapters of Genesis
aro not contradictory, and to make
them so one must rend Into the narrative
what Is not there. The first
presents a concise outline of creation,
tho second an enlargement that connects
these events with tho region
whore man began to live, the starting
point, of tho present human race.
That Eden was undoubtedly in tho
region of the Euphrates and the Tigris
rivers is pretty generally accepted,
though, of course, we can only speculate
as to the cradlo of the human
race.
After God had (treated Adam with
the highest nature the animals wero
r.ot fit companions for him. Nor could
ho be tho beginning of the race of
man without one like to himself. Man
can attain his highest only as he has
hdman companionship (v. IS). Adam
had the power of speech, and an Intel
ligence. and was given the right to
name the animals of the field (v. 10).
Hut in all this there was no companion
for him (v. 20).
Unity of Life.
In tho first account is the simple
statement that Got! created "male and
female." but in the second we neo
that man is not completo without tho
woman. God's modo was to mako her
"bone of his bone" (vv. 22, 22). This
suggests tho utmost possible unity of
man and wife; unity of life, of soul,
of emotions, cf hotno, etc. Matthew
Henry calls to our attention the woman
was not taken from "out of his
head to top him, nor out of his foot,
to bo trampled under foot, but out.
of his side to bo bis equal, from under
his artn to bo protected, and near
his heart to be loved."
The marriage relation is tho most '
Facrea 01 an nutnan ties (v. 24). It la ;
the best possible training and educa- j
tion in love, sacrifice, duty, victory
over evil, in all that is best in life.
Those are the qualities needed to
build up the race. When ono is do- 1
,-raded the other of necessity is lowcrod.
To understand tho full meaning
of tho marriage relation we need to
comprehend the relation of Christ and
his church. Eph. 5:SI, 32.
If. then, man has such a high beginning,
does not that vory fact inv j
pose upon him a burden of responsi- ,
hillty to his Creator? "Nobility means j
obligation," and to renounce is base
ingratitude. Even as God said, "let '
us make man," so by his power wo nro
1 to continue the work of making men; j
who thall be complete in Christ Jesus.
Created in God's image, what a les- !
' son to leave In the minds of our schol1
ara. I?st, marred, obliterated by sin,
yet it is possible to have it restored
'.n Christ. 13 that image bright or
dim? This is God'a world, wo are
