I was sett down to work when a man entered A respect able Intelligent workman with rain Mr Phillips sir Yes I am Mr Phillips can I do for you want you to come to my house trouble and I want sir Out in the rain and wind Bom the the lights and the buzz of the cars down a dark street we tramped silently together Suddenly the man stopped outside an house pushed opt the door and said Just a minute sir Willie bring a light Come in sir mind how you come And there lying like a heap of rags in ilic pass age was a woman As I knelt down close to smell her breath the man said Yes thats it sir drunk dead drqnk I heard you speak on Social Problems Thats my prob lem I want to know how you woulddo with that If that woman was your wife how would you deal with it sir And there in the back room were two

sheltered from the onslaught of those infu riate whirling hurricanes which from time to time sweep down some ol those yawning gorges and savage defies lies a placid stieet of water which vies in the beauty its surroundings and in its crystal line clearness and purity with pro bably any lake in the world But its great attraction is the deep rich azure ol its waters a vivid cerulean blue surpassing the azure of the skies or even that wonderful of which is some times observed ofi the north coast Africa And as the water o this Sec the blue lake is as trans- parent almost as the air itself Rowing over its glassy surface every object resting on the bottom is most clearly perceptable with startling distinctness although the lake is considerable depth and a small nickel coin dropped into the water can be seen gyrating downwards and downwards until it reaches the bot tom And the prospect from above the lake is truly attractive In the background the snowclad mon- of the Alps their peaks and jagged pyramids towering upwards to the skies in the nearer distance the dark green of a great forest and beneath the blue waters reflecting the scene as in a mirror so completely that it is impossible to discern the actual point where water touches the rocky bank But if the great ocean itself were as transparent as this Alpine lake what a panorama would he unfolded what a succession of scenes desola tion of havoc and of would be unrolled Here a gallant ship down into the chambers deep here and there a bleaching skeleton entangled in its for it has escaped the voracity of the devour ing tigers of flit sea Here a Span ish galleon loaded with treasure wrested from the brave those savage buccaneers who in their cupidity weighted their ship with too much gold and silver and paid the penalty of their greed Or here the scene of a great bat- tie several line of battle ships and frSgAtcs full of skeletons some still grasping their weapons lying prone close together some even locked to gether as in mortal while the ground is strewn with dismal ev idences or the strife And there will all those skeletons lie until at the trump the Archangel the sea will give up her dead Then will they all have to stand before the judgement seat Christ to give account their lives And to some who lived the life of the righteous and punishment of whoso misdeeds has been borne by their Saviour will be addressed glad welcome Come ye blessed inherit the Kingdom But to others who their God and refused to obey His behests tho dread and terrible sen tence be pronounced ye The anniversary
