But I must know more and if this 'ere religun can make P a feller happy, I want it. Bill spoke like a different man. Before they left, Bill and Nancy's own husband had wept their way to the cross. It was a happy woman who retired that iiight. She had trusted God and ' taken the first opportunity which came to be a blessing-to show forth the ' love,-the Divine Love of Jesus. - Q9 Herein is our love made perfect that we may have boldness in the G3 Q day of judgmentg because as He is, so are we in this World. fy tj AT PARTING pit' ca Our happy school days now are o 'er P eq And we are soon to part once more ,Q To go our separate ways, and fill 'E Each one a place in God's own will.

I never seed her mad 5' yet. 1'll take you up on that bet. The bargain was made and the money was deposited in the hands of Jake 'T' Wiggins, the store keeper. By this time, the crowd had drawn closer and 9 were making sneering remarks. Suppose we meet tonight after we give the parson a little fun, Jed QR Q www . , 1 Q Meanwhile it had grown dark. The sun ,had long since gone down and even the clouds refused to show forth the splendor of the moon. Signs of a. Q storm were approaching but Nancy only lighted a small tallow candle by Q which she read her small worn Bible and prayed that God would make her a EJ blessing. Many hours she had spent in prayer for her lost husband and many tears had been shed, but tonight the burden seemed almost unbearable. But the God who marks the sparrow's fall, heard her cry and soon the light broke in and she knew God would sometime soften once more the heart of her hus- C band. As it was getting late she prepared for bed, but not to sleep. Q3 Long after midnight she was aroused by loud knocking and mutterings of Q her own husband, whom she knew to be intoxicated. gy Q t'Nancy Rogers, git yerself out a there 'n let us in! Don't go ter gruntin' X53 ,1'0l1llCl, either. . .. Nancy very patiently and meekly got up and admitted the men, treating '- gi them with utmost kindness. But Jed heeded not her loving spirit, and giving 'Q 1 , her a cuff on the side of the head, which caused a severe headache, ordered her to go out after a chicken. By this time rain was coming down and thunder , crashing and the very thought of going out made her shudder. Without a word J she wrapped a little worn shawl around her shoulders and taking the lantern Q she ventured out. But this was not all. There was wood to get, and water from the spring, yet. through it all Nancy maintained a sweet spirit. The , chicken was cleaned and cooked, along with what little she had left in the Vg '5--- house. , l . . E9 During this time she could hear loud carousing and bragging, mingled Q Q with terrible oaths from the adjoining room, but she only prayed that G-od G3 ' would give her grace. The little meal was spread out on the little wooden P table and the men called in. They immediately made, as if to begin, but she ig spoke up, Gentlemen, I have one favor to ask.. Kindly allow me to say grace. ' Kind Heavenly Father, we are so thankful for this privilege of showing J forth thy love and our love for these men in giving them food and shelter. It Q9 93 seems but a small thing but Thou hast said, 'Even as ye do it to the least of fy these, my brethren, ye have done it unto me.' Bless them good for Jesus' sake, Amen. Q The meal was begun in silence. There were no more oaths or loud talking. Q They were completely dumbfounded. Even the chicken and the biscuits which EQ she had taken so many pains to prepare refused to do down.
