"I bear branded on my body th mark of
Jesus." Ual. 8:17.
Paul's scars were the credential that he
was Christ's servant. II had preached
and organised churchea In Oalatia. In hla
absence false and Jealous teachers came
from Judea and told the Galatlan that
they had been Imposed upon, that Faul
waa do true apostle. They charged him
with, dishonesty, two-facednen and flat
tery In order to form a Pauline party
within th church. They denied to him
th authority of a real apostle, making
him an Imposter. Thus th churches were
troubled and scattered.
Paul, learning of ' the disaffection and
strife, hasten to write hi defense: "My
scar are my credentials." He had been
stoned once and dragged out and left for
dead, three times beaten with 'rods, five
times scourged with th "horrible flagel
lum," three time shipwrecked and many
tlmea Imprisoned. Just as a Slav owner
waa accustomed to burn the mark of hi
ownership into the body of hi Slav with
a red-hot branding iron, so Paul declare
that th scar of his wounds are unques
tioned proofs that hi authority to preach
la given by his Master, In whose servlo
he has received these mark.
His scars show his surrender and devo
tion to Jesus Christ. In his conversion on
the Damascus road hi first question was,
"Lord, what shall I do?" He had changed
masters In that soul-searching experience.
Henceforth to know and to do the will
of Christ were the paxslon of hla life.
"Immediately I conferred not with flesh
and blood." Christ was at th helm of
hi life. What need of other leadership?
H went nowhere except to preach Christ.
Stoning, scourging and prison cell could
not deter him. Gaping wounds and whit
and blue scars were hi eloquent certifi
cate of loyalty and lov to hla new found
Master. "Always bearing about In my
body th putting to death of Jeaua, that
th life also of Jsus may be manifested
In my body."

Divine ' Shepherd loves, cleanse, mark,
own, guard and feeds HI sheep. He
know them by name. He lay down Hi
life for them. No power can pluck them
out of Hi hand. He keeps them. "Hands
oft! My mark I on tny own!" Paul's
brandmarks were Christ' sworn declara
tion of ownership and protection.
With such, a vision of his Master and
such a living Inner experience of His mas
terfleld presence, everything else In Faul
life fell Into th background. Birth, fam

count a refuse that I may gain Christ
and be found in Him."
This experience and surrender ar th
ground of Paul' Invincible courage and
splendid enthusiasm to conquer the world.
He waa not satisfied with a personal sal

heaven merely. Th ordinance to him
war not premiums In a Ufa Insurance
policy. Th church was not a fire escape.
II had met the Son of nod face to face.
He had fellow shipped with the Prince of
Heaven. He had sworn undying allegiance

Fair Ladies of the
While Andrew Johnsow was president his
wife was the nominal mistress of the
White House, although she appeared In so
cial life as little as possible, owing to deli
cate health. Her daughter Martha, wife
of Judge David T. Patterson, usually pre
sided at the White House In place of her
invalid mother.
Mrs. Johnson, whoae maiden name was
Kllsa McCardle, was born in Leesburg,
Washington county, Tennessee, October 4.
1810. Khe died In Home, Greene county,
Tennessee, on January 15, 1S78.
When she married Andrew Johnson, on
May 87, KM, Eliza MoCardla, the daughtet
of a widow in Greenville, Tenn., was only
16 year old and her husband not yet a.
The young wife helped her ambitious
husband to acquire his education. She
seconded his every effort and furthered
his progress as alderman, mayor, senator
and governor. When he became vice presi
dent her health waa broken, but she was
still an Indomitable spirit.
Mrs. Johnson, while in tho White House
was described by a Washington corre
spondent in this way:
"Mrs. Johnson, a confirmed invalid, ha

assertion of your Interesting correspondent
Itaac of Ash Creek, that he has a heii
with brains to think and plan, is not so
strange as mignt at nrst appear. Just
now the usually quiet and sedate state of
Kansas Is stirred mightily by a discussion
on this same subject; and It Is known that
anything having th power to stir Kan
sas must be strong.
During a recent trip I learned that a
student of the Kansas university who has
quit study in class to Indulge In poultry
raising has announced the conclusion,
reached from a cioae study of hens, that
"the ben has sense." His thesis to bark
up th assertion has put many a lethargic
Kansan Into the humor that made the
state famous when Mary Ellen Lease, "Old
Man" Peffer and Jeremiah, yie barefoot
prophet, were wracking William Allen
White's youthful soul. Not only does the
student Investigator assert that the hen
can think, but that she is now reducing
the size of ber egg (in Kansas) to corre
spand with th general trend compelling
peopl to live high, whether they will or
no. And If that la so, surely w must

best commercial expression of our time.
One enthusiastic Kansan. who claimed to
know from personal observation that tb
startling announcement of th hen Investi
gator la right, went so far as to say to ms
that Fred Cobum, the Alfalfa Philosopher,
had brought th Kansas hens to their
present attitude of Independence by his
boasting of their ability and great Im
portance to th state. Whether this be
true or not, Kansas controversialists, of
