The Tri-Weekly Journal's Own Serial The Only Thing That Counts A Mystery Romance of Modern Bohemia By the Famous Novelist Carolyn Beecher (Copyright, 1920.) Chapter I. IT was a glorious day in early October when Helen •Westfield stepped from the train in the Grand Central station. New York had donned her gayest aspect to welcome her. The air was crisp, bracing, yet the sun shone warmly. Curiously she watched her fellow passengers as they hurried from the train all intent upon their own af fairs, knowing nothing, caring less for those with whom they came in contact. Most of the women were met by some one. She seemed strangely alone as'she looked at the unfamiliar faces, yet she rejoiced in that very aloofness. A trinity of stylishly dressed women passed her, chatting earn estly. "I wonder what price they have paid for what they have? Every body has to pay, some time,” she said to herself as she noted their ex pensive clothes, their jewels. There was no envy in her glance, none in her mind. No matter what a woman had, she paid for it and she paid a top price, so Helen believed, if not in the coin of the realm, in something infinitely more precious— in her lost faith, her vanished hap piness. perhaps, a lost soul. With a shrug she dismissed the three women and also her morbid thoughts. It was no concern of hers. Naturally optimistic, her spirits rose as she thought that this was now to be her home. This great seething city where no one either knew or cared who or what she was; what she had been —so long as she paid her way and minded her own busi- It had suddenly become necessary for her to. earn her own living. One or two accepted stories by a maga zine editor- pointed the way They had been written to keep her mind occupied, to save heF reason. No one had been more astonished than she when they were accepted. But from that day she saw away out. No thought of failure had since en tered her mind. She would succeed because she must. In her indignation at the way life had treated her, Helen had declared that she owed the world nothing, least of all confidence in her affairs. She even went so far as to say that TiaMdTyes Any Woman can Dye now A.-: I Each package of "Diamond.

It was in this state of mind that Helen Westfield had come to New York to live —New York the great hiding place for anguished souls. Jler world had been overturned; her faith was gone. She was cynical be cause she had been shocked, wound ed. The world she had visioned had been such a joyous, happy one. The world that she knew had been so dif ferent. It was nothing but a sham, a cheat and a liar. It had promised so much, and it had given—nothing! Some would say a dangerous con dition of mind for a young and love ly woman. For Helen Westfield was lovely, dangerously, fiiquantly so. That she had her own living now to earn was one of the results of her faith in the world —in people. She never had done any work before— paid work —but that did not frighten her. Poverty did not frighten her; it only annoyed her for the moment. She looked the future calmly in the face, expecting nothin;*, so sure she would not be disappointed, so she told herself. And she would be free! She felt like crying her freedom aloud in the station. Instead she asked a good-natured looking porter to direct her to Washington Square In a side street, just off the square, she found the house for which she was looking It was a dreary, un kempt looking place enough, and al most she was tempted to try else where. But she was possessed of a buoyant temperament. The inside might be more attractive. So she rang the bell. The studio room, with tiny sleep ing room attached, was even more unprepossessing than the exterior of the house. The curtainless -windows, the dingy carpet, chairs which wob bled when you sat upon them, made the rooms even more depressing than the exterior had been. "Most folks like the view," the janitress said, waiting. Helen walked to the window, caught a glimpse of the square, the trees, and turning impulsively said; “I’ll take it.” For a week Helen worked hard, as sisted by the janitress. Also she spent a good share of the money she -’bt with her—all she had in the world. At the end of that time no one would have recognized the place. An imitation Chinese rug covered the studio floor, a rag one the sleeping room. Pretty, soft col ored curtains at the windows, a few pieces of plain substantial furniture the rickety things she had thrown out. Her tiny kitchenette — a necessary apnendage to every stu dio—was daintily curtained after it had been religiously scrubbed. The apartment was now most attractive. She would rest a day or two, look about a little, then commence to write. (Another installment of The Tri- Weekly Journal’s fascinating serial will be published in the next issue of the paper.

SABBATH SCHOOL LESSON For November 21—20 Matt. 10 DR. MARION M’S. HULL Golden Text: “And He said unto them, pray ye therefore the Lord of the Harvest that He would thrust forth laborers unto His harvest.” Matt. 9:23. The king’s heart was saddened by the condition of the multitude who were as sheep having no shepherd. It was like a harvest ripe, but with not enough laborers to gather it. So He told His disciples to pray the Lord of the harvest to thrust forth laborers into His harvest. And in answer to their prayers, He thrust them forth. It is a great thing to pray; it is dangerous unless you are ready to help answer them if He calls. So He sent them forth, for they were willing, and gave them power over pnclean spirits and dis ease. The Twelve Representative It is interesting to notice the type of men He chose and sent forth. It gives us some idea of what His plans are for us, for they constituted the nucleus about which His church grew. Note that they were no two alike; that they were just ordinary men such as you will meet today; and that in sending them out, He grouped them in twos, each pair be ing complements. In the lists as given us by all the evangelists, there are always three groups—the first headed by Peter, the second by Philip, and the third by James Junior. The order in the groups varies slightly, but the grouping here given by Matthew seems to have been the usual one. Peter —his nickname has become the one which he is best known to day—is always paired with his broth er Andrew. Simon Bar-jonah, and Andrew Bar-jonah—Simon and An drew Johnson —were >opposites, as though they were not sons of the same father. Peter was impulsive and unstabile. Andrew was cool and calculating. Peter spoke first and thought afterward; Andrew thought first and spoke afterward. But if Peter was impulsive he had initia ' tive; and it is better to do some thing and make a mistake occasion ally than not to do anything at all. And when the Holy Spirit came upon , him at Pentecost He sanctified that j verv impulsiveness and initiative and made him the leader of the group. God needs cool, calm, thoughtful men like Andrew as well as Peters, and so the two opposites are sent out together. James and John McJabdi were the other two in that group. Their fa ther was in good circumstances and their mother was an ambitious wom an for her boys. They were both hot-headed, and ambitious them selves, and had a strong tendency to look out for number one. James was a good deal older than John, for John lived for at least sixty-five years after Jesus’ edath, and must have been' very yoyng at this time, while the other James was called the younger (or junior) to dtftin gu sn him from this older one or James senior. James was the first to die, John the last. God needs the older and more mature ones, and with them He must have also the young and immature ones. It is no ticeable that these sons of thunder became the apostles of love. John four times speaks of himself as the disciple whom Jesus loved. but never once as the disciple who loved Jesus; but he wrote “we love Him because He first loved us. These four are best known —three of them were most closely associated with Jesus, and all four once. Philip heads the next group o four. He was paired with Nathanael Bartholemew, whom he had brought (o the Christ. Philip was dull but loyal while Nathanael was quick ’ witted and with a tendency to skeptl cism. When Philip told him of the Christ, Nathanael asked, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth. And all Philip could reply was, “Come and see.” But Nathanael was quick. It didn’t take but two ques tions on his part to convince Inm that Jesus was the Christ. God needs both the man of slow wit and the man of quick wit; and He sends them out together. . . Thomas Didymus, or the twin, ana Matthew the tax-gatherer were the other pair in the second group or four From the fact that Thomas is called the Twin and is always grouped with Matthew, it has been thought they were brothers. This may or may not be true. Matthew I alone is the one who speaks of him self as the tax-gatherer. He never forgets how low he had fallen when i Jesus caled him; but the others seem to have forgotten it m what he became. These two were op posites, too Thomas was an hon est doubter. He was always ‘ from Missouri.” and had to be shown; but when shown he was out and out for his Lord. Matthew was a man ot fearless faith. When called, he left everything he had—money and all —and followed and then was fear ess enough to invite his old asso -1 elates to a feast which he was giv ing to his new associate, in spite of what they might feel or wv about it. God needs the honest doubter as well as the man of fearless faltn. He sends them out together. James Junior heads the third group of four. He is paired with Judas, not Iscariot, aIF the evengel ists are careful to say. They were also brothers, the sons of Al phaeus (of Cleopos or Ciopo« as the Greek form of the Hebrew Alphaeus is written). James is called the “Less” or Junior to distinguish him from the other James, and Ju das is called Lebbaeus Thaddeus or ' (the loyal hearted), to distinguish : him from the traitor. They were 1 sons of Mary, the sister of the Virgin Mary, and therefore first ’ cousins of Jesus (sometimes called by Hebrew usage the brothers of ' the Lord). They too were opposites. Both were authors of the epistles which bear their names. James em i phasize-d the practical side of right eousness as showing the real life, while Jude was stickler for the doc trinal side. Both are needed by God, the man of practical righteous ness and the man of doctrine. They are sent out together. The last two are opposites—more ' so than any of the others--Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot. .Simon I belonged to a party whose motto : was, "The Nation—at any cost.” | When he became a follower of Christ I that same zeal would have made his j motto now, "Christ, at any cost.” On the other hand, Judas Iscariot was the only one who counted the cost. He became convinced that following Christ was too costly, so he sold | out for what he could get. This is the only kind of man God does not need. Their Commission "These twelve Jesus sent forth,” proving Himself to be the Lord of the harvest (ch. 9:38). The King is sending out His messengers, and •they are commanded to preach tne same message that Hi> rt?ld has proclaimed, and ’lat He Fat; spoken—“T.ie kingdom of tne heavens is at hand.” A study of the test of this chap ter of Matthew shows us what their commission was. Ordinaril v it >s taken as genera], applying to min isters and missionaries today. This is not the case, however. In the 15th, 23d and 42d verses occur the phrase, “Verily I say unto you,” and this phrase ends each of three parts of the commission, each of which has its own characteristic. The first part (vs. 5-15) is limited to the house of Israel, and primarily for the immediate the second part (vs. 16-23) was for a later time and was wider in its application, includ ing the Gentiles also (v. 18) in their ministry, for the apostles were net persecuted until after Pentecost; and the third part (vs. 24-42) is of still wider application and includes every servant of the King. A proper appreciation of these time limits and conditions will, guard us from errors. > For example, the special powers to heal the sick and cleanse lepers and raise the dead and cast out devils were not given to missionaries or the King’s servants today any more than the instruction to confine our ministry to the house of Israel. Nor are missionaries to go out ex pecting the heathen to whom they go to support them. Jesus limited the apostles then to the nation of Israel, because it was to them He was offer ing Himself as King. Therefore, they were to preach, saying the king dom of the heavens is at hand. Therefore, they were to do the things the King did —heal, cleanse, cast out, raise—demonstrating His presence. They were to limit their ministry to Israel; therefore they were to make no provision, but to depend on their ow r n to support them. And if their own did not, then it would be more tolerable for Sodom and Gormorrah in the day of judgment. Later their massage was to change —it was to be a “testimony” and was to include the Gentiles. Associated with this world come persecution. In fact the Greek word translated "witnesses” is the word from which we get our work martyrs. This perse cution would extend even into the family circle, so that a plan’s en emies should be those of his own household. And this is true today; after those who make it hardest for the follower of Christ are those in his own circle, instead of trying to make it easier. The twenty-third verse has puz zled some. It is easy when one un derstands Matthew’s Jewish trend of thought. The rejection of their King by the nation of Israel inter rupted the work of the messengers. It will be taken up again after the church parenthesis (Acts 15:14-17), and before it is completed the Son of Man will come back. In the meantime the proclamation Is to be widened; what He tells them is to be proclaimed on the housetops where everyone can hear it. (Notice the gradually widening circle —to the lost sheep of the house of Israel first, then to include the Gentiles, now upon the housetops.) Persecu tion, • misunderstanding—yes. The servant cannot expect more than the master. They call Him Beelzebul — the dung god—they cannot do more to His servants. But they are to be comforted by three facts —their relation to Him; their Father’s care; and their sure reward. Disciple, servant, they of his household (domestic servants closest to Him) —these are their relations to Him their teacher, their Lord, their master of the house. Surely to bear such a relation to Him one might endure anything. Then their Father cares. Two sparrows are sold for a farthing, land five for two farthings, but the i extra one that is thrown in for noth ing cannot fall to the ground with out our Father. It is worth His 'care. Surely they are too as worth I more than many sparrows. ; And their reward is sure. Even a cup of cold water given in the name of Christ will not go unre warded. "Verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward, said Jesus. God will not let you work for Him for nothing. What matters .it then if you are misunderstood, reviled, persecuted?

Well will close. Hope to ' see this in print soon. Will sign my name. FORSAKEN. What a pity it is, that your husband isn’t a man—just only a brute. He is blessed with a i wife who loves him and five children, who would be a com fort to him in his old age, if he had a spark of decency in him. Some one should take him out in the back yard and kick him around a few times to jar some of the meanness out of him. You can leave him. He can be made to contribute to the support of you and the children, and it would be better for you to leave him than to be a slave to him and let him abuse you the way he does. Don't ever think you cannot get along with out him, for there is help, and a place for you in this world, other than his fireside —to take the bones he throws at you, or life to that effect. Many wom en have gone out in the world and made a living for them selves to a better advantage than being; abused by a good for-noth ing husband. •> Here comes tw sister seeking advice. I, Agnes, am fourteen years of age, and in love- with a widower, thirty-four years of age. He says he loves me and has asked me to marry him. He has two children. Is it proper to let him kiss me? I do sometimes. Do you think he- loves me? Will Christmas be all right for our wedding day? I, Helen am eighteen years of age, and am in love with one of my first causins. Do you think it would be allright for us to marry? He is only twenty-two years of age, and seems to Icve love me dearly. I don’t feel like I can ever live without him. Will it be proper for us both to marry Christmas? Please print this and let us know at once. We are verv lonely. (Signed) AGNES AND HELEN. Agnes A.

Aunt Julia is uoing splendid work for all the world by teaching her Let ter Boxers to be good to all dumb things, to help the helpless and it is not being good to a child to let it have its own way, to let it scream ; or sulk until the family yield to its whim. This I’fe is full of self sacrifice or there would be no living • here. Might is not monarch “Trust in the Lord and do right” is what we are taught in God’s own Book. ’ Have you at last come to wintry weatlier? We had such a late disa , greeabl’e springtime but October made amends and the rain in No vember has not been the cold pitless sort we usually have at this sea son. But when the wind comes from th§ north and the little red pigs began to frisk about I “feel in my bones” that cold weather would soon come. We do not burn a leaf on this place, gradually I get them in the hen house or hog house or in sacks and use them all winter. I cannot ask God to keep me in com fort and not do as much as that for the ca'ttle on the place. We have fifteen Durocs that one registered mother has given us this year, the first bunch came March Ist and the others are eight weeks old. That nearly makes us “hog poor,” but the meat hogs will soon be in the smoke house and some of the older reds, so I hope we can keep the tails and ears of these youngsters. Register- > ed hogs eat no more than scrubs and certainly grow larger and a uniform color and shape in a herd of hogs or • cows is like the same color in one’s i flock of poultry, it makes them show up better. And as I finished the last sentence my eyes fell, on my beauti i ful white kittens, happy, one in my lap as I write these lines and the other in a chair as near as he can get. I don’t enjoy handling cats, I let them creep into my lap, but it is not often that they get their fur i rubbed. There is as much difference in the disposition of cats as chil i dren. One of these kittens follows i me all oyer the place, the other at i tends strictly to his own affairs. I ' wouldn’t know how to think if tne' ■ cats on the place were variegated. taking for one so young. But if you have decided on the step, Christmas dav Is as gcod as ary other day. And I hope you will not regret the "leap in the dark.” Helen The marriage of cousins in some states is illegal.
