"Come Over and Help us."
Berlin, Jan. 29.—I read with
the greatest interest about your
Foreign Missionary work and 1
heartily indorse it. but while
working for the heathen in for-
eign land pray do not forget tlie
ignorant people here in Roger
Mills Co., Okla. We are in
great need of a £ood live minis-
ter to organize a congregation
and get u> in working order.
When I came here a year ago
there were no Christians, ex-
cept a few antis who won't
work anv place, now we could
drum up between 13 and -0 who
have been members of the Chris-
tian church and I am doing all
1 can to interest them until we
can get a more able man to
come. Can't you send someone
this spring aud hold a meetir.^
for us. Now is the time and
here is the place to do lots ot
good. The railroad will, be
built through here this spring
and there is still vacant land to
be homeste&ded. Also claims
can be bought reasonable. I
waut more Christian families to
come at once and let me locate
you on a good home

W. S. Rehorn is at present en
gaged in a meeting at a school

a half miles south of Mulhall

many earnest workers.

"On a cold winter evening."
>aid Dr. T L. Cuyler. recently.
••I made my first call on a rich
merchant in New York. As I
left the door, and the piercing
cale swept in. 1 said:
•' 'What an awful night for the
poor!'
••lie went back, and, bringing
me a roll of bank bills, said:
•• Please hard these for me
to the poorest people you know.'
"After a few day>. 1 wrote to
him the grateful thanks of the
poor whom his bounty had re-
lieved. and added:
• How is it that a man so
kind to his fellow creatures, has
always been SO unkind to his
Saviour as to refuse him his
heart?'
"That sentence touched him
to the core. He sent for me to
come and talk with him. and
speedily gave himself to Christ
He has been a most useful Chris-
tian ever since. But he told me
I was the first person who had
talked to him about his soul in
twenty years. One hour of pas
toral work did more for that
man than the pulpit effort of a
lifetime."
