" 1 By EDNA BARNM qOWWww^gWWIw^BWwPWUOWAwPWwAwii Ifik loM. uy MoCiar* ix?way*p?r ttyaUlo?t? . Silvester Pel am, la the parlance or Ola fellow-townsmen, was a rich old crab, lie sorely was rich, eveu as fortunes are reckoned nowadays; he was old. If one considers three score and IS as such. As to being a crab?well. It might be said that be walked backward, at least as far as his Ideas were coucerued. But everyone has one Inconsistency, and old Sylvester's pet bobby was tills Be was interested In chlrograpliy to the point of its being an obsession. He was forever having to explain to his acquaintances that chlrography was not the care of the feet, but a science by which one can read character In handwriting. Let l\lui get hold of a neighbor's writing, and he advertised 'the poor unfortunate's faults all over the town. Never did lie have uuything commendable to report. So far did old Syl's bobby possess 111 in that ruiuor bad It that ho had willed that Ills entire estate be used to establish an Institute to promulgate the truths of the science (as Interpreted by Sylvester i'elum) to the^jmd of dispersing a universal knowledge of chlrogruphy. Now, there wus none to dispute this will. His only son was deud?really dead?although to old Syl he had been dead from the moment he announced his intention of marrying Edltli Mel' vllle. She wus an actress. Old Syl wouldn't even see her. Thus, for 23 years, old Syl had heard of his son only twice?once recently when he died I uud on unother occasion when his wife died at the birth of their little son, Melville. Old Syl might have softened toward the child, had he not bden branded with his mother's name. He had almost forgotten the existence of "the brat," when out of a clear sky came a letter from the youngster, now aged twenty-one. It was an ordinary enough letter, typewritten on the letterhead of a well-known brokerage concern in New York. Melville was applying for a life Insurance policy nnd he wanted ' to know what his maternal grandmother died of. Old Syl might not have read the missive but lor the signature. Never had he run across such a specimen. It was clear-cut and bold, with Just enough slant to denote ambition, but with no trace of unpleasant aggressiveness. So he was interested In life insurance?more prudent than his lather, old Syl reflected. Old Syl went'to the phone. Finally came the report that Melville was not yet in. Old Syl retired to brood over the wonderful signature, assured by the operator that he would be summoned as soon us his "party" could be located. It was nearly 11:30. The "pnrty" was in a tawdry New York boarding house, leisurely attiring himself for the day. He emerged looking like nn advertisement for a haberdashery, whistling nonchalantly and feeling quite positive that his' lateness this morning would be the last straw. The manager would surely stand for no more. He was a rotten bookkeeper, anyway?lie was clever enough to know that. However, he didn't care. Something would \ turn up. Some: thing always did. The reason for today's lateness wns the usual one?up until all hours the night before dancing with Kathleen, the pearl of all womanhood. Kathleen talked to Pel-Mel frankly. > Let him get a decent income and she would consider matrimony. Pel-Mel l'elam's conjecture was i right; his doom was already sealed 8 when he reached oflice. The manager 'r was prepared to deal the blow. "Yes, sir " U'llH nil 1*4*1.Afnl hoH tn cow whnn > told Wis services would be dispensed 1 with. He hardly had a chance to realf iv.e he now belonged to the vast army r of unemployed when Boston colled f again. ? Pel-Mel emerged from the booth ten minutes later, warm- and dosed. The gist of it all was that his grandfather , ?his .mysterious old grandfather of , whom his parents had told him almost nothing?was arranging for flOO.OOO to be placed to his credit in a New York bank thnt very day. "Don't want you to have to wait till I'm dead to he glad you have a grandfather," Old 8yl had t explained. r A more curious person than Pel-Mel [ Pelam might have wondered at this ' sudden interest, but Pel-Mel's mind - was occupied only with the jingle of money. Why, $100,000 would buy ( Kathleen s conseJtt, with some change left over I Pel-Mel grabbed his hat and started to Kathleen. "Pel-Mel" was the right name for him, thought many a clerk, as he dashed through the office. The accommodating stenographer with the big, serious eyes, sat near the door. "O, Mr. Pelam." she called to him, and 'then she gave him a prosy roesMflA A. I? puic, nniuu/ ur* fill Ul nrr, Ml course, thought Pel-Mel. but why stop him. even for a moment?

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC ?Janah'a Missionary Adventure. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC ?The Missionary Teaching of the Book of Jonah. " Thnt the book of Jonnh Is historical we believe for the following reasons: First, Its record und use In the ScrlptureS. That the* writers of the Bible Intended the Impression of Its historicity Is without the shadow of u doubt. The suggestion that it is u parable is absolutely gratuitous. Second, the unbroken testimony of tradition among the Jews is thnt it is historic. Third, the testimony of Jesus Christ (Matt. 12:39-41). The words of Jesus Christ are final. f. Jonah's Second Commission (vv. 1, 2). When called the first time to go to Nineveh, he found the tusk too great for him. For his i^ifnithfulness, he was chastised. He repented and God restored his commission^ The Lord said to him, "ITeacli the preaching that 1 bid thee" (v. 2). God knows how he wants His work done. Happy is the missionary, minister, Sundayschool teacher, who preaches God's Word Just as He gave it. II. Jonah's Preaching (vv. 3, 4). 1. His Held (v. 3). "Nineveh was an exceeding great city." Not only was the city large, but Its Inhabitants were noted for their cruelty. 2. His message (v. 4). "Yet forty days and Nlngveh shall be overthrown." This means that forty days were given by God for rcpcntuuce ere the Judgment would full. ' God Is long-suffering, not willing that any should perish, but that all should repent (II L'et. 3:9). Though He Is merciful, yet there Is a limitation to It. He says, "Yet forty days." III. The Repentance of Nineveh (vv. 5-10). 1. They believed God (v. 5). They believed thnt God was speaking to them through the prophet about their sins and Impending judgment.' 2. They proclaimed a fnst (vv. 5-8). The king and people Joined sincerely in this movement. The call was for thera to turn away from their sins. Their penitence was genuine, for they not merely put on sackcloth, the visible sign of mourning, but they cried to God (v. 8). o. i ney reasoneu mat God would repent (v. 9). Though' they had no assurance that God would have mercy, yet they reasoned that the sending of a prophet nnd the giving of n tling before the fall of doom implied that God would be merciful If they repented. They were wise In so doing. We today know that God will have mercy If we repent (Acts 3:19). What utter folly to go on In sin in the face of the assurance thut God will Judge.5. God's mercy shown (v. 10). "God saw their works that they turned from their evil way." God's eye is omniscient. Wherever there Is a soul who Is turning from sin In penitence. He sees. No one has ever wept over sin unnoticed by God. God rejoices when a sinner repents (Luke 15:10). In the Book of Jonah we have portrayed the typical history of Israel: "1. Jonah was called to a world mission, nnd so was Tsrael. (2) Jonah at flrat refused compliance with the divine purpose and plan, and so did Israel. (3) Jonah was punished by being cast Into the sea, and so was Israel by being dispersed among the nations. (4) Jonah was not lost, but rather especially preserved during this part of his experience, and Israel is not being assimilated by the nations, but being kept for God. (5) Jonah, repentant and cast out by the flsh. Is restored to life and action again, and isrnei, repentnnt and cast out by the nations, shall be restored to her former national position. (6)# Jonah, obedient, goes upon his mission to Nineveh, and Israel obedient, shall ultimately engage In her original mission to the world. (7) Jonah Is successful In that his message Is acted upon to the salvation of Nineveh, so Israel shall be blessed In that she shall he used to the conversion of the whole world." ?Dr. Gray's Commentary. Th? Apostles Work Wonders. And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people. And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of *01611 and women. ?Acts 5:12-14. * Death In Life. f or we wmcn live nre always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might made manifest in our mortal flesh.
