triumnhSl‘entry. _It # ts more thsn^ possible
One of the ererydsy trssedies of life is the
breskin* of old ties by progressive persons
who here jone into • new life. Youn* peo
ple who have left the humble old home to
*o to college return and find themselves Hr*'
in* in a different world which doea not speak
the lanfuage of that in which they are reared.
AH shout us 1re see prominent and auccesa
ful men and women concerning whose fsmi-
lie* we never inquire. They have had to
nuke a freah life for thcmeelves. Home are
■II too quick with the past, and to forget
those to whom they owe all; but even many
who would carry their familiea and old as
sociates with them find It impossible so,to
do. Psul. the great apoatle to the Gentiles,
waa neverthelesa a Jew, and his heart ever
yarned for his own people. Daily he prayed
for them, and with ail hie tact and tender
ness and wiadom he aonght to keep in close
telstionahip with them. Whenever he ap
proached a new community it was to the
»)nsgogue that he immediately repaired. His
pride waa that he waa a Hebrew of the
Hebrews.' Yet alas! hia own people contin
ually esat him out.
Despite innumerable mobbing*. Paul kept
his Hebrew affiliationa. In the preaent lea-
son we find him ending hia aeeond mission-
•ry journey ip order to go up to Jerusalem
to fill a vow. He made the long Journey up
to the city of David—with the inextinguish
able lore for that snot whieh has’ character-
•lied the devout Jew throughout all ages-—
and in the temple eourta he fulfilled all the
rites of an orthodox Jew.
„ The Things Men Celebrate.
; Nothing is said in the record about the
reception riven the great apostle by the
fnurch st Jerusalem. Apparently he had no
however, that the historian, with i
liOir, in
the held.
Paul waa not one of those missionaries who
make mope noise at home than they do
abroad; whose work looms larger in the
printed reports and in the telling to home
churches than it does before the *s of those
who actually see it oa the ground. Nor was
he of that company of evangelists who em
ploy ,press agents to report their successes
in distant fields
to the centers from which
'or to Paul’s mind the' work
thing. His heart yearned for tha battle
ground, like old Dr. Hunter Corbett, L
who
would not' wait to finish his term as tnodera
tor of tin* Presbyterian general assembly, but
who hastened bark to his field in Chinn. He
would rather preach In the China villages
than preside and be lionised at elaborate
functions in America. Of him it is told
that returning to China from a furlong he
began to preach to the natives as soon as he
set foot upon the jetty, even before he had
greeted h(s family.
An. Echo of the Baptist.
An interesting figure enters the storv here,
one A polios, sn Alexandrian Jew. He was
of the type of the scholarly man of letters,
ready in debate and equipped by research
for thorough controversy. The Alexandrian
spirit, which ** * *

scholarship to the Hebrew scriptures,

had already come> god. Jived and .died. Yet
he waa true to the beat that be knew, and
up to the limits of hia knowledge he preached
his gospel In Kphcaui, powerfully confounding
the Jews.
The churches which are not aWaka to the
whole truth ore typified by Apolios and hia
Ephesian converts. We recall the great body
of Armenian . Christians, and tne; Coptic
church, and the GrqeY church, nnd the Ortho-
dpg'Jtussikn rhbreb, : <rhl«h, thru^lntellectual
thVpor and spiritual deeHrte, hav# lost much

church. What shall we say to them! Hhnll

an older day and brand them aa heretical
Surely nof. The tamper of the time is to lead
all theaa on to a fuller knowledge. Upon the

structure of Christian truth should be reared.
That, happily, la the mood of the day.
That; too, waa the mood of Paul's day,
Apolios waa not east out as a heretic. There
were two friends of the gospel, Aquils and
Priscilla, who seem ever to have been satis
fied to keep In the background, and to be
helpers of others. - What part they had as
the strengtheners, supporters and comforters
of Paul we can only imagine. When they
learned of Apollo's preaching, they did not
rise up in the synagogue and hurl criticisms
at his head, nor did they set to flowlUj
subtle current of eensorinusness
ig that
itch is
that our churches were full of Aquilaa and
Priscillas! Then the nreseher who is gow
criticised for hia crudities and rawnesses and
blunders and shortcomings would be helned,
in quiet, brotherly fashion, to fulfill a larger
mission. Who knows but that even this

found a company of heifpvern who had been

with Aouita nnd Priscilla, to Illumine the
minds and direct the faith of those stum

Unable to hold up hia head In Ceylon after
this flngco, he went to South India, still
without bin confidence In spiritual revela
tions at all humbled. He sabl to a young
woman missionary that lie had been told by
the I/ml that he was to marry her on n
certain day. The . young womfin thought
that she had bad a confirmatory message.
All preparations .a^ere ninde for the wed
ding, but Just before the ceremony this
young seer reported tlint he lind had an
other revelation, to’ the effect that he should
not get married. The young woman and
he.r friends have had their trust In fpeolnl
messages seriously shaken.
Tha Debate In School.
Driven by opposition out of the Jewish
synagogue, Paul carried hia teaching and
discussions out Into the selmol of Tyrauniis.
There he debated dally with all comers.
Paul waa never greatly disturbed by being
put out of the church. He was no exam
ple for the modern preacher who. when for
one renann or another.he loses his pulpit,
begins to squabble and-fight and create
friction, ever thereafter cherishing a griev
ance and making himself a general nalsnncc
to his frieuils^ If men cared more for the
gospel than for their own Jobs they would
simply go out and prench. There la tin need
to quarrel .over pulpits. There ore always
plenty of people eager to hear real preach
ing. In every large community a man can
build tip a congregation of the utterly un
churched. The marvel Is why more young
ministers, Instead of randldatfng around for
rails, do not go out Into virgin soil nnd
build tin their own churches. There Is no
Joy quite like that of baring your own
work.
Two years in Ephesus made Pan! and his
tearhings town talk. Not only were many
converts gathered to him, but the whole great
community w*» aware that a new messrnger
and a new message had come to the rity. A
living gospel ran not be hid. I was Inter
ested to inquire one time of a company of
Japanese gentlemen, in the city of Okayama

FAKE "CURE ALLS"
Department Taking Decid
ed Action Against
“Medical Healers."
Washington, Aug. 13,—The postofflco
department Is taking decided action
against alleged fake medical healers
and dealers in all kinds of magic cure-
alls. Within the pyt few days four
fraud orders have been Issued by Post
master General Hitchcock against os
many alleged “healers," and their mall
has been held up,
"Cancer cures," consumption nos
trums nnd all kinds of marvelous "rem
edies" are under the ban.
Yesterday a fraud order was issued
against ffn Indianapolis concern, that
city being the headquarters for a num
ber of "sanitariums" and quacks of all
kinds.
Christ’s promised heritage to His own, are
unknown mysteries to them. -
Undoubtedly, ton, there were richer spirit
ual manifestations given to fh>,Apostolic
church than are given now; Possfblv these
gifts of tongues sod prophecies awl healing
were necessary for the pioneering stage of
the gospel. In sny case, It must remain
true that these gifts were not sn end. but
a means. They were not to l»e sought for
themselves, but for whaf they <-*wM bring
to pnss in the proelsmatlon of Christ. Here
in 1* the blunder of the sects who are still
arising In our own time, exalting to a su
preme place what they call the gift of
tongue*. There Js a tingle able to the spirit
ual elation, not to stay hysteria, of those
who costder themselves s«r gifted.
On the mission fields I, heard Innny stories
of companies who had gone out to the for
eign field expecting to receive the gift of
tongues, but not In a single Instance were
their expectations fulfilled. Only a short
time ago a large romp*ti.v won*, fn*u Seattle

The Defeated Magicians.
The Orient still behaves firmly in tha "evil
eyt.’’ There is soma reason for this faith;
at last if we so designate that aye which
teas only evil—which looks upon fair land
only to covet It, whieh beholds a new move
ment only to exploit it for personal gain, and
which conceives of the church only ss s
money-making opportunity. Such sn evil eye
may be found anywhere In the world. Every
leader of a great movement has had business
propositions from these people, keen to fee
the "main chsnee"—the modern multitudi
nous descendants of the seven sons of Rceva.
.Paul waa a healer aa well aa a preacher,
and he had worked miracles in the mighty
name of Jesus. They employed it merely ss
a magician adopts a new trick from • success
ful rival. The demons knew the real, power
in the master word Jesus, ss evil always
knows the good. 80 the demon answered,
"Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who
are yef" Thereupon the demoniac leaped
upon them and wounded them sorely, so that
the inrident became a nine days' wonder in
Ephesus.
Beat of all. the name of the Lord Jews
waa magnified. Credit went where It be
longed. Somehow the episode recalls the
manly statement of Lieutenant Shackleton,
the ennrageons Briton, who rcccnty pene
trated almost to the south pole, who in his
written report since returning home ha* de
clared that only a snerlgl Providence saved
him fmm the perils of big trip. "It was dur
ing .this- period fhat nome Power beyrtml ouf
own guided our footsteps. If we acknowl
edged this, as we did down among the Ice
Hoes. It Igonly fitting that we shoo Id. remem
ber it now when the sam# Power has brought
p* safe Home .thru all these troubles and
perils."
In honor of the Christ and Ms power the
magicians brought their hooks, to the value
of |lo.ooo, and made a vast bonfire of them.
Bo there have of Iste been sreat bonfires of
opium paraphernalia in China. Similarly
there have been heaps of idola whose burn
ing has spelled out the power of the name
of Jeans. For from this old Ephesian inci
dent we are reminded that naught should
be permitted to stand between a soul and Its
loyalty to God.

For mnny day, the management of
the "Posey" hove been expecting thla
wonderful picture, nnd today It Is their
pleasure to present It to their patron*
In addition to the regular program of
motion picture, and vocal selection,
by Portanovn, Collin anil Farrington.
’’Tht, Leopard Queen" Is a story,
unique as to pictures, founded on fart
nnd produced with absolute fidelity to
nature. A news Item In the English
edition of The Cairo New, (Africa),
dated ten years ago, begins this start
ling series of picture events—British
Ship Zanzibar Founders off East Const
—Frightful fate would await cast
aways, as the country I, uninhabited
for hundreds of miles—then we are
shown a raft In mldorcan bearing the
only two survivor, of the lost Zanzibar
—Captain Jack Owens and his dough
ter, Essie. A few hours later tye get a
glimpse of the African shore line,
showing the captain and his daughter
both lying senseless where the re-’
mnrseless waves have tossed them.
Five years later we see a rude cabin
built of grass, mud and brush. The
if Its making hag kept the brave
a and his 1 dsdgbtrr jfrom mad
ness—the utter hopelessness of their
being rescued from this desolate re
gion has Anally become a settled con
viction with them both, so they live as
best they can, lighting a, primeval
man had to fight for food and shelter;
the sea ha, washed ashore from the
Znnzlbar many things which have
helped them In their present situation
—the skins of animal, protect them
from the heavy dew, of night, nnd
the captain has learned thru necessity
to keep their larder'stocked with his
bow and arrows.' - —
An evil day comes—the father Is
stricken with fever, and In spite of his
daughter's loving can,f he succumbs,
leaving Essie alonti Nr weeks after-
ward the girl barely'exfst*. but at last
the desire for life returns nnd hope—
the feeling an oil-wise Providence
gives to humanity- a* a safeguard
against our Ills—regain, possession of
her mind and she fights on alone. One
day In the woods she hear, a wall—
It sounds like the cry o{ an Infant In
distress. Upon Investigation, she dis
cover, two baby leopards In the bellow
tree; the girl hungers for com-
panloshtp, so she. determines to take
the kittens to her home nnd. a* she
reaches the door tile mother Jeopard
bounds Into view. The girl, nothing
duunted, clings to tho babies, a
strange scene follow,—the fearless girl
und the mother leopard becomo
friends—she Is alone no longer.
One Year latter.—Two animal buy
ers are starting for the Interior. We
follow the Interesting movements of
these men. \V# see them pitch camp
In the jungles, trap leopard, und other
wild animals.:, • »* it .
Gates Finds-Essid,—sA dense jungle;
a white man Svlth three native gun-
bearers Is following a leopard traek;
suddenly he see* a magnificent speci
men lying contentedly In his path, ho
raises his rifle, a human voice utters a
cry, and a beautiful girl, clarl In leop
ard skins, falls with arms outstretched
across the body—Essie sees a. human
face and hear, her mother tongue fur
the first time since her father’s death.
A few week* later Jordan starts back
with the first consignment of animals,
leaving Gates to follow with the res
cued girl. Essie hoa not only made
friends with the loopard family, hut
being gifted by nattlro with a strange
potfer over animals, she has taught
them to obey her. ■ We witness her giv
ing Gates a demonstration of this
power.
The girl Is alone In the world, and
upon l;er return to civilization must
have a means of livelihood. Gates Is
a showman nnd knows that an act such
ns Essie will be able to give with her
pets will prove a revelation to the
jaded theatergoers of America and
Europe, so he proposes tha scheme to
Essie. She has grown very fond of
her rescuer nnd Is willing to be guided
by his ndvlre. Gates puts his men to
building crates, nnd we see the jiarty
start hack for civilization.
At Cairo, Loading the Animals on
Board a Steamer Bound for Paris.—-
Then four weeks Inter we witness Es
sie's first public appearance. Gates
has had scenery arranged to represent
the girl’s rude African abode, and tho
transplanted leopards, thinking them
selves back In Africa with their queen,
of a vast audience, and as Gate, takes
obey her slightest wish, to the delight
the girl In his arms after her triumph
we see that the future bids fair to ho
a, bright to Essie a* the past ha* been
unkind—the desolate (lays spent In
darkest Africa are forgotten.
It Is a wonderful picture, one that
can be greatly enjoyed by one and all.
