Every little while there would be a

flijsh of black curls through the door,
a furious beating on the temper gong.
“Take that, will you?" Lettle would

often addressed before. "Lordy, I’ll
l»eat you. You make me—tired—nil
time trying to—get me! JCow how do
you feel?*’
The temper gong had long aluce
ceased to be a thing of wood. I.ettle's

‘Tell him. Miss Penfield," she replied,

The young man laughed aloud, but
Lettle stared at him with unflinching’
composure. The room was so small that
every word uttered In It was distinctly
audible to all Its occupants. Therefore
the stout man at the desk was accu

Nevertheless, his assistant turned 7 to

movement of his elbow on th^counter,

“/Fraid I’d steal It, eh? Well, I

“Oh, no-o,” Interrupted Lettle
breathlessly. Her black eyes sprang

of failure. “I—I thought I’d see if
you were Int’rusted, ’cause If you are,
I—^I’d make machines fer you—for a

1. Peter at Joppa (Acta 9:32 43).
On hla tour of evangelising Peter came
down to Joppa and lodged with Simon,
a tanner. This shows the widening of
his sympathy In that a Jew was willing
to lodge with one of such an occupa
tion.
2. The Conversion of Cornelius (Acts
10). In the conversion of this Gentile
nnd the coming of the Spirit upon him,
the middle wall of partition between
Jew and Gentile was broken down. ^
The way was now open for the further
outreach of the Gospel.
3. Paul’s First Missionary Jpumey
(Acts 13, IflP. The Spirit of God now
came upon the church for the definite
purpose of preaching the Gospel to the
whole world., Paul and Barnabas with
John Murk went out preuchlhg the
Gospel through the provinces of Asia
