These men ■ » drummers who belong to a society ••ailed “Gideon’s Bund;” they are commonly designated as “Gideons.” Perhaps It Is be cause they know themselves to be In a minority, and up against a formidable proposition, that they have taken the name •»f the old Jewish hero who. with his hand ful of followers, won a famous victory. Incidentally, these drummers try to aqnelch foul stories, bring abont decent treatment of *lrl servants at hotels, and promote genuine helpfulness among the member* of ^eaeh — there are no Gideon* today. Some Up-to-Dato Gideons. their stlan life and to lead'other men Into a Christian life.

They bear many denominational names; and most of them are business men who have proved themaelvea In life’s burly- burly. Tested, they bare rung true. Are these not God a Gideons, and the present- day hope of Christian faith and social serv ice? An Old Haro 8tory. one of tlfe great tales of all literature Is that which this week engroases the Sunday schools of the world. Gideon Is out of the heroes of childhood whoso luster does not grow dim when the light of mature Judg ment Is turned upou him. lie lived in s dork day. among a weak-kneed people. The Jews had turned from the plainly marked path of safety and prosperity, and for tt Idnlutry they had lieeii delivered Into hands of the traus-Jordaulc people Mldlau. who harried them Into dens and caves and fortified eltlea. When things fall Into such a had ease An this. there la usually a man seut aa a deliverer: forever the* race’s hope la In a mun. This time It was Gideon, son of JinikIi. the Ablexrite. who heard the call. A cautious man was Gideon; be wanted to iiinko sure of the voice that called him. Ho ms sacrificial offering wni lighted by tire from the end of the nngel's staff. Then lie overthrew the altar of Baal, and erected In Its stead au altar to Jehovah, creating n great stir by this bold deed. This made a marked mau. Gideon thereupon lifted up his standard, when the Mi#!nnlte* and Amaickltes had assembled for n fresh foray upon Israel, and he summoned the people to him. The Teat of the Fleeeo. Like a wise general making sure of his reserves. Gideon baited bis proceedings long enough to prove that God was really fcrltn him. This he did by the famous test of the fleece, lie put a fleece of wool — that the fleece be dry and the floor wet; and thla. too. was granted him. Then the.opposing forces encamped over against each other. Gideon's army waa very large—too large for Jehovah to get the credit of Its victory. Therefore the leader was Instrnetrd to release all who were scared—whleh cleared off twenty two thou- and. Still the remaining ten thousand rere too many for the purpose Clod bad In lew. so He winnowed out the fittest and. tlic wariest— who scooped up water! w ith their hand*, rather than oxi*»*«* them-1 overheard one of the enemy relate, routed the Mldlsn foe. New Ways and Weapons. A man who was showfug me over hla In dustrlnl school In India lamented that It Is so hard to tench an Indian uew ways; lie wants to weave, plough and drill Just ss his ancestors did thousands of yesrs ugo. Wise men have made the same ohnrrvntiou concerning twentieth century Uhristlnn work. Outgrown forms and methods are • lung to as tenaciously- If they were In spired and sacred. The modern world Is not ministered to hy the modern church lu modem fashion. The possible bigness. Adaptiveness ■ nnd contemporaneousness of Christian service are yet to In* realised.

The eagle-eyed progreaalveness of tlie missionaries in China la proved by noth ing more than their determination that a modem dally newspaper of civilisation.

Next to character, brains Is the liest equipment for llfe'e long battle. The eon of Joaeh ws« fertile lu strategy; a military pioneer, lie told off his three hundred Into three companies. Into each man's hand he put a trumpet, e pitcher ired earthenware ves sels are almost ns cheep and common as dirt In the Orient! and a torch.

The trumpets were simultaneously sounded, and. with a shout. “The sword of Jehovah and Gideon," the faithful Israelites saw the foe flee In panic, each turning his frenslcd weapon against his comrade.
