and 1 confess to yon. old friend, that I
cannot call np in my church a dozen
prominent business or professional men
who would make this trial at the risk
of all that they hold dear Can you do
any better in yonr chnrch ? What are
we to say—that the church would not
respond to the call. ‘Come and suffer?’
The actual results of the pledge as
obeyed here in Raymond are enough to
make any pastor tremble and at the
same time lung with yearning that they
might occur in his own parish. Certain
ly. never have I seen a chnrch so signal
ly blessed by the Spirit as this one.
But am I myself ready to take this
pledge? 1 ask the question honestly, and
1 dread to face an honest answer. I
know well enough that I would have to
change very much in my life if I under
took to follow his steps so closely. 1
have called myself a Christian for many
years. For the past ten years I have
enjoyed a life that has had compara
tively little suffering in it. lam hon
estly I say it —living at a long distance
from municipal problems and the life
of the poor, the degraded and the aban
doned. What wonld the obedience to
this pledge demand of me ? I hesitate to
answer. My chnrch is wealthy, full of
well to do. satisfied j enple. The stand
ard of their discipleship is, I am aware,
not of a nature to respond to the call
to suffering or personal loss I say. ‘1
am aw.: r. i may 1 <;• i. .. taken I may
have erred i.i not stirv.n,-; tbe.r d-vptr
life. Caxto'i. my frit url. I k v • spokcp
my inmost Uionghr, : * von Shall Igo
hack to my poopm t Sunday and
stand up before them in my large city
church and say. ‘Let ns follow Jesus
closer; let us walk in his steps, where
it will cost us something more than it
is costing us now; let ns pledge not to
do anything without first asking,
‘What would .Tesns do?’ If I should go
before them with that message, it would
be a strange and startling one to them.
But why? Are we not really to follow
him all the way? What is it to be a
follower of Jesus? What does it mean
to imitate him ? What does it mean to
walk in his stops?”
The Rev. Calvin Brnce, D. D., of the
Nazareth Avenne chnrch, Chicago, let
his pen fall on the paper. He had come
to the parting of the ways, and hiH
question, he felt sure, was the question
of many and many n man in the min
istry and in the church. He went to his
window and opened it. He was op
pressed with the weight of his convic
tions, and he felt almost suffocated with
the air of the room. He wanted to see
the stars and feel the breath of the
world.
The night was very still. The clock
in the First church was striking mid
night. As it finished a clear, strong
voice down in the direction of the Rec
tangle came floating up to him as if
borne on radiant pinions
“ Must Jesus bear the cross alone
Aihl all the world rd free?
No! There’s a cross for every one,
And there’s a cross for me.”
It was the voice of one of Gray’s old
converts, a night watchman at tho
packing houses, who sometimes solaced
his lonesome hours by a verse or two
from some familiar hymn.
The Rev. Calvin Bruce turned away
from the window, and after a little
hesitation he kneeled down. “What
would Jesus do? What would Jesus
do?" Never had he yielded hilftself so
completely to the Spirit's searching re
vealing of Jesns. He was on his knees a
long time. He retired and slept fitfully,
with many awakenings. He rose before
it was clear dawn and threw open his
window again. As the light in the east
grew stronger he repeated to himself -.
“What would Jesus do? What would
he do? Shall I follow his steps?”
The sun rose and flooded the city
with its power. When shall the dawn
of anew discipleship usher in the con
quering triumph of a closer walk with
Jesus? When shall Christendom tread
more closely the path he made?
It is the way the Master trod.
Shall not the servant tread it still?
With this question throbbing through
his whole being the Rev. Calvin bmce
went back to Chicago, and the great
crisis of his Christian life in the min
istry suddenly broke irresistibly upon
him.
CHAPTER IX.
Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou
<ft>est.
, The Saturday matinee at the Audi
torium in Chicago was just over, and
the usual crowd was struggling to get
t 6 its carriage before any one else. The
Auditorium attendant was shouting ont
the number of different carriages, and
the carriage dpor? were slamming as
the horses were driven rapidly to the
curb, held there impatient by the
TTFTtfcrs, ’GrlSSTiad shivered long in the
raw east wind, and then , let go to
a I'tlSayß&2fib?SnUi&K the river
o§ T <Pt:hMles r £bat i the ele
vated ranwhjf iin8 l fiiially went whirling
’‘Now, then, 634!” shoutpd the Au
ditopwMja’,attendant. ‘‘Sjix hundred and
twenty-fourl”f|he repeated as there
dashed up to the-curt) a splendid span
o| iiltick horses .attached tb a carriage
having the monogram ‘‘C. R. S. ” in
gilt letters on the panel of the door.
Two girls stepped out of the crowd
toward the carriage. The older one had
entered and taken her seat, and the at
tendant was still holding the door open
for the youngep, who stood hesitating
on the curb.
“Cblhe, Felicia! What ere you waifc-
ing f or?' I shall freeze to death!” called
the voice from the carriage.
The girl outside of the carriage hast
ily unpinned a bunch of English violets
from her dres and handed them to a
small boy who was standing shivering
on the edge of the sidewalk, almost
under the horses’ feet. He took them
with a look of astonishment and a
“Thank ye. lady!” and instantly buried
a very grimy face in the bnneh of per
fume. The girl stepped into the car
riage, the door shut with the incisive
bang peculiar to well made carriages of
this sort, and in a few moments the
•oachman was speeding the horses rap
dly up one of the boulevards.
‘‘You are always doing some queer
thing or other. Felicia,” said the older
irl as the carriage whirled on past the
great residences already brilliantly
lighted.
“Am I? What have I done that is
jueer now. Rose?” asked the other,
looking up suddenly and turning her
head toward her sister.
‘‘Oh, giving those violets to that boy I
He looked as if ho needed a good hot
supper more than a hunch of violets.
It’s a wonder you didn’t invite him
home with us. I shouldn’t have been
surprised if yon had. You are always
doing such qneer things, Felicia. ”
‘‘Would it be queer to invite a boy
like that to come to tho house and get
a hot supper?” Felicia asked the ques
ti n softly and almost as if she were
alone.
Ir "r isn’t just the word, of
ecu: so, ’’ replied Rose indifferently. ‘‘lt
would ho what Mme. Blanc calls outre
—decidedly. Therefore you will please
not invite him or others like him to hot
suppers because I suggested it. Oh.
dear! I’m awfully tired.”
She yawned, and Felicia silently
looked ont of the window in the door.
‘‘The concert was stupid, and the
violinist was simply a bore. I don’t see
how you could sit so still through it
all,” Rose exclaimed, a little impa
tiently.
“I liked the music." answered Felicia
quietly.
“You like anything. I never saw a
girl with so little critical taste. ”
Felicia colored slightly, but would
not answer. Rose yawned again and
then hummed a fragment of a popular
song. Then she exclaimed abruptly:
“I’m sick of almost everything. I
hope the ‘Shadows of London’ will be
exciting tonight."
“ ‘The Shadows of Chicago!’ ” mur
mured Felicia.
“ ‘The Shadows of Chicago!’ ‘The
Shadows of London, ’ the play, the great
drama with its wonderful scenery, the
sensation of New York for two months.
You know we have a box with the De
lanos tonight.”
Felicia turned her face toward her
sister. Her great brown eves were very
expressive and not altogether free from
a sparkle of luminous heat.
“And yet we never weep over the
real thing on the actual stage of life.
What are the shadows of London on the
stage to the shadows of London or Chi
cago ns they really exist ? Why don’t
we get excited over tho facts as they
are?”
“Because the actual people are dirty
and disagreeable and it’s too much
bother, I suppose, ” replied Rose cnre
lessly. “Felicia, you never can reform
the world. What’s the use? We’re not
to blame for the poverty and misery
There have always been rich and poor,
and there always will be. We ought to
be thankful we’re rich.”
“Suppose Christ had gone on that
principle,” replied Felicia, with un
usual persistence. “Do you remember
Dr. Bruce’s sermon on that verse a few'
Sundays ago, ‘For ye know the grace
of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though
he was rich, yet for our sakes he be
came poor, that ye through his poverty
might become rich ?’ ”
“I remember it well enough. ” said
Rose, with some petnlance. “And
didn’t Dr. Bruce go on to say that there
was no blame attached to people who
1 had wealth if they are kind and give to
the needs of the poor? And I am sure
the doctor himself is pretty comfortably
1 settled. He never gives up his luxuries
just because some people in the city go
hungry. What good would it do if he
did ? I toll yon, Felicia, there will al
ways be poor and rich in spite of all we
can do. Ever since Rachel has written
about the queer doings in Raymond
you have upset the w'hole family. Peo
! pie can’t live at that concert pitch all
the time. You see if Rachel doesn’t
1 give it up soon. It’s a great pity she
doesn't come to Chicago and sing in
the Anditorinm concerts. I heard today
| she had received an offer. I’m going to
write and urge her to come. I’m just
dying to hear her sing. ”
Felicia looked out of the window and
i was silent. The carriage rolled on past
; two blocks of magnificent private resi
j dences and turned into a wide drive
way under a covered passage, and the
sisters hurried into the house. It was
an elegant mansion of graystone, fur
nished like a palace, every corner of it
warm with the luxury of paintings,
sculpture, art and refinement.
The owner of it all. Mr. Charles R.
Sterling, stood before an open grate fire
Bmoking a cigar. He had made his
money in grain speculation and rail
road ventures and was reputed to be
w T orth something over two millions.
His wife was a sister of Mrs. Winslow
of Raymond. She had been an invalid
for several years. The two girls. Rose
and Felicia, were the only children.
Rose was 21 years old. fair, vivacious,
educated in a fashionable college. jn>-
entering society and already somewhat
cynical and indifferent, a very hard
youug lady to phase, her father said
sometimes playfully, sometimes sternly.
Felicia was 19, with a tropical beauty
somewhat like her cousin. Rachel Wins
low, with warm, generous impulses
just waking into Christian feeling, ca
pable of all sorts of expression, a puzzle
to her father, a source of irritation to
her mother and with a great, nnsur
veyed territory of thought and action
in herself of which she was more than
dimly conscious. There was that in
Felicia that would e ..s ly endure any
condition in life if on., the liberty to
act fully on her conscientious convic
tions were granted h r.
“Here’s a letter for you. Felicia.”
said Mr. Sterling, taking it out of his
pocket-
Felicia sat down and instantly opened
the letter, saying as she did so, “It s
from Rachel. ”
“Well, what/s the latest news from
Raymond?” asked Mr. Sterling, taking
his cigar out of his month and looking
at Felicia, as he often did. with half
shut eyes, as if he were studying her,
“Rachel says Dr. Bruce has been
studying in Raymond for two Sundays
and has seemed very much interested
in Mr. Maxwell’s pledge in the E'irst
chnrch.
“What does Rachel say about her
self?” asked Rose, who was lying on a
couch almost buried under half a dozen
elegant cushions.
“She is still singing at the Rectangle.
Since the tent meetings closed she aings
in an old hall until the new buildings
her friend Virginia Page is putting np
are completed. ”
“I must write Rachel to come to Chi
cago and visit ns. She ought not to
throw away her voice in that railroad
town upon all those people who don t
appreciate her. ’ ’
.Mr. Sterling lighted anew cigar, and
Rose exclaimed
“Rachel is awfully queer, I think.
She might set Chicago wild with her
voice if she sang in the Auditorium,
and there she goes on. throwing her
voice away on people who don’t know
what they are hearing. ”
“Rachel won't come here unless she
can do it and keep her pledge at the
same time,” said Felicia after a pause.
“What pledge?” Mr. Sterling asked
the question and then added hastily:
“Oh, I know! Yes; a very peculiar
thing that. Powers used to be a friend
of mine. W T e learned telegraphy in the
same office: made a great sensation
when he resigned and handed over that
evidence to the interstate commerce
commission, and he’s back at his te
legraphy again. There have been queer
doings in Raymond during the pa. t
year. I wonder what Dr. Bruce tin.,
of it, on the whole. I must have a tala
with him about it. ”
“He preaches tomorrow, ” said Feli
cia. “Perhaps he will tell us something
about it. ’'
Tliere was silence for a minute. Then
Felicia said abrui>tly, as if she had
gone on with a spoken thought to some
invisible hearer, “And what if be
should propose the same pledge to the
Nazareth Avenue church?”
“Who ? What are yon talking about ?”
asked her father, a little sharply.
“About Dr. Bruce. I say what if he
should propose to our church what Mr.
Maxwell proposed to his and ask for
volunteers who would pledge themselves
to do everything after asking the ques
tion, ‘What would Jesus do?' ’’
“There’s no danger of it, ’’ said Rose,
rising suddenly from the couch as the
tea bell rang.
‘‘lt’s a very impracticable movement
to my mind.' ’ said Mr. Sterling sharply.
“I understand from Rachel’s letter
that the church in Raymond is going
to make an attempt to extend the idea
of tho pledge to the other churches. If
they succeed, they will certainly make
great changes in the churches and in
people’s lives," said Felicia.
“Oh, well, let’s have some tea first. ”
said Rose, walking into the dining
room. Her father and Felicia followed,
and the meal proceeded in silence. Mrs.
Sterling had her meals served in her
room. Mr. Sterling was preoccupied.
He ate very little and excused himself
early, and. although it was Saturday
night, he remarked as he went out that
he would be down town late on some
special business.
“Don’t you think father looks very
much disturbed lately?" a§ked Felicia
a little while after he had gone out.
“Oh. I don’t know'! I hadn’t noticed
anything unusual. ’ ’ replied Rose. After
a silence she said: “Are you going to
the play tonight. Felicia? Mrs. Delano
will be here at half past 7. I think you
ought to go. She w'ill feel hurt if you
refuse. ”
“I’ll go. I don’t care about it I can
see shadows enough without going to
the play. ’’
“That’s a doleful remark for a girl
19 years old to make,” replied Rose,
“but then you’re queer in your ideas
anyhow, Felicia. If you’re going np to
see mother, tell her I’ll run in after the
play if she is still awaka ”
Felicia went up to see her mother
and remain with her until the Delano
carriage came. Mrs. Sterling was wor
ried about her husband. She talked in
cessantly and was irritated by every re
mark Felicia made. She would not list
en to Felicia’s attempts to read even a
part of Rachel’s letter, and when Fe
licia offered to stay with her for the
evening she refused the offer with a
good deal of positive sharpness.
So Felicia started off to the play not
very happy, bnt she was familiar’with
that feeling, only sometimes she was
more unhappy than at other times. Her
feeling expressed itself tonight by a
withdrawal into herself. When the
company was seated in the box and the
curtain was up. Felicia was back of
the others and remained for the even
ing by herself. Mrs. Delano as chaperon
for a half dozen young ladies under
stood Felicia well enough to kuow that
she was “queer. " as Rose so often said,
sni she made no attempt to draw' her
out of the corner, and so Felicia really

experienced that night by herself one
of the feelings that added to the mo
mentum that was increasing the coming
on of her great crisis.
The play was an English melodrama
full of startling situations, realistic
scenery and unexpected climaxes. There
was one scene in the third act that im
pressed even Rose Sterling
It was midnight on Blackfriars
bridge. Thames flowed dark and
forbidding below St Paul’s rose
through the dim light, imposing, its
dome seeming to float above the build
ings surrounding it The figure of a
child came upon the bridge and stood
there for a moment, peering about as
if looking for some one. Several persons
were crossing the bridge, but in one of
the recesses about midw'ay of the river
a woman stood, leaning out over the
parapet with a strained agony of face
and figure that told plainly of her in
tentions Just as she was stealthily
mounting the parapet to throw' herself
into the river the child caught sight of
her. ran forward, with a shrill cry more
animal than human, and. seizing the
woman's dress, dragged back upon it
w r ith all her little strength Then there
came suddenly npon the scene two other
characters who had already figured in
the play, a tall, handsome, athletic gen
tleman dressed in the fashion, attended
by a slim figured lad. who was as re
fined in dress and appearance as the lit
tle girl clinging to her mother was
mournfully hideous in her rags and re
pulsive poverty These two. the gentle
man and the lad. prevented the at
tempted suicide, and after a tableau on
the bridge w r here the audience learned
that the man and woman w T ere brother
and sister the scene w T as transferred to
the interior of one of the slum tene
ments in the east side of London Here
the scene painter and carpenter had
done their utmost to produce an exact
copy of a famous court and alley well
known to the poor creatures w T ho make
up a part of the outcast London hu
manity The rags, the crowding, the
vileness, the broken furniture, the hor
rible animal existence forced upon
creatures made in God’s image, were so
skillfully showm in this scene that more
than one elegant woman in the theater,
seated, like Rose Sterling, in a sump
tuous box. surrounded with silk hang
ings and velvet covered railing, caught
berself shrinking back a little, as if
contamination were possible from the
nearness of this piece of painted canvas.
It was alumst too realistic, and yet it
had a horrible fascination for Felicia
as she sat there alone, buried back in a
cushioned seat absorbed in thoughts that
w’ent tar beyond the dialogue on the
stage
From the tenement scene the play
shifted to the interior of a nobleman’s
palace, and almost a sigh of relief went
np all over the house at the sight of the
accustomed luxury of the upper classes
The contrast was startling It was
brought about by a clever piece of stag
ing that allowed only a few minutes to
elapse between the slum and the palace
scenes The dialogue continued, the
actors came and went in their various
roles, but upon Felicia the play made
but one distinct iinpressiofi In reality
the scenes on the bridge and in the
slum were only incidents in the story
of the play, but Felicia found herself
living those scenes over and over. She
had never philosophized about the
causes of human misery She was not
old enough She had not the tempera
ment philosophizes. But she felt
intensely, and this was not the first
time she had felt the contrast thrust
into her feeling between the upper and
the lower conditions of human life. It
had been growing upon her until it had
made her what Rose called “queer" and
the other people in her circle of wealthy
acquaintances called “very unusual.’
It was simply the human problem in
its extremes of riches and poverty, its
refinement end its vileness. which was,
