INSURANCE SECTION SINGS When only thirty souls, mostly children, hit the trail last night, “Billy"”" Sunday called his staff of workers and Christians generally to the front for a conference after the meeting and there, with his overcoat on to keep from taking cold, he told them they must do better, “How are we to tell who are Chris- tians and who are not?" asked one perplexed usher. “I can't tell them from here,” re- plied “Billy.” “That's your business to find out.

Bee Want Aas wroduce Results, at the Omaha Tab and with feminine curiosity the daugh- ter of Pharaoh had to look into it to see what was there, and when they removed the cover there was lylng a strons, althy baby boy, kicking up his heels and sucking his thumbs, as probably most of us did when we were boys, and prob- ably as you did when you were a girl. The baby looks up and weeps, and those tears blotted out all that was against it and gave it a chance for Its life. Baby's Tears Inrnel's Ransom. The tears of that baby were the jewels with which Israel was ransomed from Egyptian bondage. The princess had a woman's heart, and when a woman's heart and a baby's tears get tangled up together, something happens that gives the devil cold feet. Perhaps the princess had & baby that had died, and the sight of Moses may have torn the wound open and made it bleed afresh. But she had a woman's heart, and that made her forget she was the daughter of Pharaoh, and she was determined to give protection to that baby, Faithtul Mirlam (bless her heart) saw the heart of the princess reflected in her face. Mirlam had studied faces so much that she could read princess’ heart as plainly 88 If written In an open book, and she sald to her: “Shall I go and get one of the Hebrew women to nurse the chid for you?' and the princess said, “'Go."” 1 see her little feet and legs fly as #he runs down the hot, dusty road, and her mother must have seen her coming & mile away, and she ran to meet her, and in & little while she had her own buby put back Into her arms and was being pald Egyptian gold to nurse her own aby, So Pharaoh's daughter sald to he “Now you take this child and nurse it for me and 1 will pay you your the hours of anxiety and alarm snd grief and if the angels know what s going on, and I guess they do, what a hilarious time there must have been in heaven when they saw Moses and Mirlam back ot home under the protection of the daughter of Pharoah. I imagine wshe dropped on her knees and poured out glorioualy, What dumfounded me is that a lot of you people for whom God has done all He can, do not bend your knees to Him. If Goa were to kill everybody here who had not prayed today, there wouldn't be very many of you left in the Tabernacle, their seats. Bet your life on that. A Great Joke Pharaoh.

He from his mother. You can bank on it he didn't inhale it from his dad. He got it from his ma. Moses was learned In all the wisdom of Egypt, but that didn't give him the blg head. When God throws a world out Into space he is not concerned about it. The first mile that world takes settles its course for eternity, When God throws a child out into the world he is mighty anxlous that it gets a right start. The Roman Catho- lica are right when they say: “Give us the children until they are ten years old, and wo don't care who has them after that." Only Way to Rench the M . The Catholics are not losing any sleep about losing men and women from their church membership. It s the only church that has ever shown us the only sensible WAY to reach the masses—that is, by get- ting hold of the children. way on God's earth you will ever solve the problem of reaching the masses. You get the boys and girls started right and the devil will hang crepe on his door, bank his fires, and hell will be “for rent” inside of a year. Moses was able to choose affliction with the people of God rather than enjoy the pleasures of Egypt because God took his mother out of the brickyard and the field and gave her the privilege of being his guide. Beforo Moses found out anything about Egypt, he found that his mother's re- ligion was about the best thing in the world, and when a boy finds that out he i safe. ¥ Power in a Mother's Kias, And there is a mighty power in a moth- er's kiss—inspiration, courage, hope, am- bition, in a mother's kiss. One kiss made Benjamin West a painter, and the mem- ory of It clung to him through life. Ome kiss will drive away the fear In the dark and make the little one brave. It will #ive strength where there is weakness. I was in & town one day and saw a mother out with her little boy, and he had great steel braces on both legs, to his hips, and when I got near enough to them I learned by their conversation that wasn't the first time the mother had had him out for a walk. She had him out exercising him so he would get the use of his limbs. He w truggling and she amiled and said, “You are doing fi day; better than you did yesterday,” and she stooped and kissed him, and the kiss of encouragement made him work all the harder, d she sald: “You are doing great, son,” and he said: “Mamma, I'm going to run; look at me” And he started. and one of his toes caught on the steel brace on the other leg and he | stumbled, but she caught him and kissed How quickly the mother was pald for| him, and said “That was fine, how well you dia it!" son; and kiss your wife, it frighten her.

An Ang: Mementos. 1 once read the story of an angel who stole out of heaven and came to this world one bright, sunshiny day; roamed through field, forest, city and hamlet, and as the sun went down plumed his wings for the return flight. The angel sald: “Now that my visit is over, before 1 return I must gather some mementos of my trip.” He looked at the beautiful | flowers in the garden and said, “How lovely and fragrant,” and plucked the rarest roses, made a bouquet, and said, I see nothing more beautiful and fra- grant than these flowers.” The angel looked further and saw a bright-eyed, rosy-cheeked child, and said, “That baby is prettier than the flowers: I will take that, too;" and looking beyond to the cradle, he saw a mother'a love, pouring out over the babe like a gushing spring and the angel sald, “The mother's love is the prettiest thing 1 have seen; 1 will take that, too And with tnese three L(reasures heavenly messenger winged his flight to the pearly gates, saying, “Before 1 go in I must examine the mementos of my trip to the earth.” He looked at the flow- ers; they had withered. He looked at the baby's amile, and it had faded. He looked at the mother's love, ana it shone in all its pristine beauty. Then he threw away the withered flowers, cast aside tne faded smile, and with the mother's love pressed to his heart, swept through the gates into the city, shouting that the only thing he had found that would retaln its fragrance from earth to heaven is a mother's love, When God gave you the office of mother it was almost the same as if He had given you His right hand “Take this child and nurse it for me, and 1 will pay you your wages."
