THE POWER

There are some stories of the aid lwangelissn that are worth fgtening. One is entitled: The inn who Died for Me. It is a tale of the old days of mining in C3-HIOHIS

A woman named Mrs. J. K. Barney went thus with her hus- band and children. She had went- rd to be a niissionsni. but the way had been blocked. Then up near the mines she heard of s. chance f0[.,1I|’Jd01’i work which would give occasion to use all her initiative ma grace. she was told of a man whq was dying of tuberculosis in B, cabin not far away. He was in utter misery and in still deeper de- gradation. He hated everybody and felt that everybody hated him. He was so bitter against everyone that the boys from the mines used to bring him food. put it within reach and then leave him alone for the next twenty-four hours.

Mrs. Barney heard of the case. and the thought came to her, — "You wanted to be a missionary; now here is a chance for you. She wondered if she could get anyone to go to him, but the thought per- sisted:——‘Why don't you go your- self?’ so she went.

The sight of the m.an and his surroundings were revolting, and Lie was worse inside than outside. He greeted her with oaths. As she arranged his food within easy reach. she tried to find some point of common interest. she spoke to him of his mother, and he cursed her. She spoke of his wife. and lie. cursed her. When she mention- cd religion he cursed God. and call- rd stories of Jesus lies, because, he said, ‘No one ever dies for other

people.‘ 0 0

Once an evangelist. waiting at a bank-teller's wicket, printed on a ulotter:—"Pl'ay through! Pray through." That is. press your pray- er home to God's heart until He gives His answer to your own soul. well. one night this Christian wo- man pressed home her plea for the soul of the worst man she had eve‘ known. and received an as- surance that her pmyer was heard. As soon as the children were off to school the next forenoon. she went off to visit the cabin with a new confidence.

On the way a neighbor came nut to accompany her and brought her little girl along. They waited for her some distance from the cabin. The man was hateful as ever and greeted her with a hor-

He called in the boys from the mine to join him in a meeting. “I never went to one of them things be- fore," he explained, “and I'd like to have just one." When they came, he told them his story. And so pass-

No case is hopeless. Weu might the writer to the Hebrews say:-— “He is able to save to the utter- most."

There is a way into every man's heart; God will open it up for those who wait on Him for guid- ance and help. That morning Mrs. Barney did not want that neigh- bor to accompany her but God's hand was in it. The little girl she brought along solved the problem.

Nowhere is our praying as close to the heart oi Christ as when we pray for salvation of a sinner. Here, prayer is a power. Here we can be sure that the Holy Spirit “intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words."

Every success oi this sort en- courages others to persist in pray- and effort to give effect to Christ's will in people for whom He died. Once we heard an evange- list say that no story he ever told moved as main; people to Christ- ian activlty as this tale of how Christ can turn the worst into the beat.

Ambrose Small Disappearance In The New_s__Again

TORONTO, (CP) — Toronto's most famous mystery, the 1919 disappearance of theatre magnate Ambrose Small, had an echo in the court Wednesday when a rul-

ing wound up the estate of Small's widow who died Oct. ll. 1935.

After a long legal battle, com- plicated by obtaining a declara- tion that the missing millionaire was dead, Mrs. Small obtained possession of his estate of 32.000.- 000. After his death. legal argument centred about $100,000 she be- qur-sted to the Sisters of Charity. A Roman Catholic religious order. The ruling Wednesday was that the sisters are entitled to noth- ing. as other creditors have prior claims.

The other creditors are Percy A. Small. a nephew: Madeline Small Ryan. a niece; the estate of Francis X. Kormsn. brother or Mrs. Smnll: Mary J Brennan. Jay Ksslor and Sons. Ltd.. Mary Walsh, Mrs. Emilie Korman and the Toronto General Trusts. Ltd.

Estate Dwlndled

The final accounting showed the estate had dwindled so much that creditors will not receive 100 cents on the dollar. A drop in values of real estate and bond investments. plus large succession duty levies made separately on the estates of Small and his widow, cut the estate to 3141.313.

What actually happened to Am- brose Smsll remains as much a mystery as ever. -

The little brown-haired million- aire the tre-owner with is droop- ing blac mustache left his Grand Opera House in downtown Tor- onto early on the evening of Dec. 2. 1019, bought a newspaper It the rnrncr and vanished.

it was weeks before police sus- pected Small might have been murdered. They directed their in- vestigation along those lines. One

theory was that his body had been burned in his theatre tur- nsce.

A few days before his disap- pearance. Small sold his theatre chain for Sl.000.000 in cash and a further Si.000.000 in cash pgy. menis.

They always outweigh your mm;-. eriss". A man engaged in con. struction work was laid off tem- porarily and having six childrento mt. his money was scarce and had to be carefully hoarded. Three of the six kiddies needed new shoes and to top it oi! the wash- ing msehine finally gave up and died. It was one of those times when you wonder how‘ you can keep plugging away, year after year. He bought the needed shoes then went to look as a second- hand washing machine.

The family seuing it seemed to have everything—new automatic washer. drier and dishwasher. He arranged to pick up the old wash- er in the kids’ wagon next day and the conversation turned to chud- ren. He began grumbling about the high price of shoes and how quickly the children wore them out. The woman of the house look- sd,st her husband, then walked quickly away. When she was out of earshot. her husband said sadly. “We have only one child. He is paralyzed and has never walked a

That night when he knelt to pray, he gave deep and humble thanks to God for the worn-out shoes in his homel

King oi the R.C.M.P. would have found them mighty handy to knock panels out of doors that refused to open with ordinary bat- tering rams! But time changes everything and I thank my lucky stars I had an understanding hus- band—still have to be sure-for I‘m' still experimenting! Here's a recipe I made for the first time last week. It takes only a few minutes to make, and everybody voted it a. success. It's caued Cookie-Sheet Chocolate Cake. Heat in a sauce pan 1 cup milk and 2 tablcspooiis cocoa. and stir until the mixture begins to thicken. Remove from the heat, add and beat 1-‘.2 cup shortening or butter and 1c;;g.
