trying to realize, Just what had taken
place- Wolf Larneu gave them little
tlmo for thought. Ho at once put the
Qhost upon her course a course
which meant tho seal herd and not
Yokohama harbor. But the men wore
no longer eager as they pulled and
hauled, and I beard curses amongst
tiiom, which left their llpa emothorod
nnd as heavy and lifeless as woro thoy.
Not so was It with tho hunters. Smoka
tho lrropresslblo related a dtory, nnd
thoy descended Into tho stcorago, hol
lowing with laughter.
As I passed to leeward of tho galloy
on my way aft, I was approached by
tho engineer wo had rescued. HIb
faco was whlto, his Hps woro trem
bling. "Good Qod! sir, what kind of a craft
1b this?" ho cried.
"You havo oyoB, you havo soon," I
answered, almost brutally, what of tho
pain nnd fear at my own heart.
"Your promlBO?" I snld to Wolf Lar
son. "I was not thinking of taking them
aboard whon I mndo that promise," ho
anawored. "And anyway, you'll ngroo
I'vo not laid my hnndB upon them."
"Far from It, far from It," ho laughed
a moment Inter.
I mado no reply. I was incapablo
of Bpoaking, ray mind was too con
fused. I must havo tlmo to think, I
know. Tills woman, stooping ovon
now in tho sparo cabin, was a re

Dickered through my mind was that I
must do nothing hastily if I woro to

Tho romnlndor of tho day passod
unovontfully. Miss Ilrowator, wo had
learned hor namo from tho engineer,

had been his demand.
Wolf Larson hnd llttlo to say at

ho waB addrossod. Not that ho was
abashed. Far from It His was tho
porfoct polso, tho supremo conildonco
In self, which nothing could shako;
and ho was no moro timid of a woman
than ho wns of storm and battle.
"And whon shall wo nrrlvo at Yoko

loklng him squaroly In tho oyos.
Thero U whb, tho quostlon flat Tho
JawB stopped working, the oars ceasod
wobbling, and though eyes romalnod
gluod on plates, each man listened
greedily for tho answor.
"In four monthB, possibly three It

said.
Sho caught her breath, and stam
morod, "I I thought I was given to
understand that Yokohama was only
a day'a sail away. It " Horo aho
paused and looked about tho tablo at
tho clrclo of unsympathetic faces star
ing hard at tho plates. "It is not
right," Bho concluded.
"That Is a quostlon you must sottlo

plled, nodding to mo with a mischie
vous twinkle. "Mr. Van Woydon Is

only a Bailor, would look upon tho sit

"I may bo taken off by somo passing

"Thoro will bo no passing vossola,

Larson mado answer.
"I havo no clothos, nothing," alio ob
Joctod. "You hardly reallzo, sir, that

"I Bupposo you'ro llko Mr. Van Woy

Sho shrugged hor shoulders.
"At present," sho said, aftor alight

"Aren't you?" I demanded.
Sho acknowledged her ldontlty with
n nod. It was Wolf Larscn's turn to
bo puzzled. Tho namo and Its magic
signified nothing to him. I wan proud
that it did moan something to mo, and
for tho first tlmo In a weary whllo I
was convincingly conacious of n su
periority ovor him.

Sho was now staring at mo in wide

I nodded my identity, in turn.

llof, and unawaro that sho had glanced
that rollef nt Wolf Larsen, "I am so
glad."
"I remember tho rovlow," she went
on hastily, becoming nwaro of tho
awkwardness of hor remark: "that too,
too flattering rovlow."
"Not at all," I denied valiantly. "You

Tho end of salvation, as tho apostlo
Peter puts it, is tho saving of tho bouI.
Lltornlly millions
aro much inter
ested In that sal
vation, but Satan
has been too sue-
tnaafnl In tronnlnr?
multitudes of them
confused as to
how it Ui obtain-
ablo. Thero may bo
threo answers to
the quostlon, How
la a man to bo
saved?
Saved by Prin
ciple. First, somo seem
to think a man 1b
saved by adopting
certain theological propositions; cer
tain religious dogmas or teachings.
Tho weakness of this position Ib
qulto easily seen by tho majority and
they Immediately say that tho theory
must ovcnUato in practice; thoro must
bo a program of conduct, and that
program must bo carried out In actual
llfo.
Saved by Program.
For such a program tho moral law
of God 1b put to tribute. Tho ethics
of wise men of Old Testament times;
tho best ethics of seekers after truth
of tho first centuries; tho ethics of tho
Sormon on tho Mount and of Jesus
himself and his apostles, are all put
to tribute, and a program of llfo is
presented, and If It can bo carried
out, salvation will ensuo perforce. This
belief la in the faco of much teaching
of tho Word of God that man's right
eousnesses aro as filthy rags. Yet,
with all this, thero aro thousands of
mon and women today who aro trust
ing somo program of living to be their
passport to eternal salvation. But
sincere students of the principles and
tho ethics of Jesus havo found that
other teachings of Jesus take the foun
dation from under this program.
Unique Religion.
Tho religion of Jesus Christ la
unique, being different from all other
religions in that thoso who aro to re
ceive its benefits are not to do so as
tho result of tholr belief in Its prln'
clples, nor an alignment of tholr lives
with Its program of conduct. Neither
Buddha nor Confucius nor Mohammed
romps with nimh n. olnlm. Thnv trlvn
tho Drlnclnles and tho nrocrnm. but
. " . "
koop themselves in tho background
Not so with Jesus Christ, and, strange
nH it mnv neom. hla rnhrrlnn Is. In n
sonso, tho most egotistic of all tho
rollgions that the race of man has over
rocelved. Ho makea moat aatounding
claima for hlmsolf: Ho Is equal with
tho Father; ho Is tho son of God; ho
has all power given to him in heaven
and on earth; ho can ralso tho dead;
ho can lay down his llfo, but ho can
tako it up again; ho can forgive sin;
ho is worthy to receive all honor and
worship, both of men and of angels;
In short, ho claims to bo God. Ho
clearly teaches that salvation Is not
in assent to, nor in belief In his prin
ciples, nor in following a program ot
conduct that ho gives, but In living
union with hlmsolf.
Personality of Jesus Christ.
Wo may note that in tho text wo
find that belief Is referred to, but no
hint is given of principles, or a pro
gram ot living. Tho belief horo, how-
I , , . . ......
, to o a
oxerclso, but a soul movement. This
teaching is frequent: "Believo on tho
Lord Jesus Christ nnd thou shalt be
saved;" "Ho that belloveth on the Son
of God hath everlasting llfo;" "Como
unto mo nil yo that labor and aro
heavy laden and I will glvo you rest."
Now all this teaches that religion is
not a matter of principles or program,
but of personal contact with Jesus
Christ. Ho is represented as tho head
of tho body, of which saved men nro
tho raombors. Ho Is tho chief port of
tho great spiritual building known as
tho church of God, of which his bollov-
era are parts. Ho is tho vino in which
believers aro tho branches. It Is in-
timato, personal contact all tho way
throuch. Ono has vcrv nronerlv said:
"Much ot tho dcadnes3 that has come
to modern Christendom has resulted
presenting n creed Instead of Christ;
In presenting a plnn of salvation rather
than a person who saves."
How to got this personal contnet
with Jesus? Study Jesus, as ho is
presented, especially in tho gospels
and epistles of tho Now Testament, as
the Son of God. Whllo no ono can say
Jesus Is Lord, except by the Holy
Spirit, yet by following tho Holy Spirit
jn his teaching In tho Scriptures, wo
may believe that ho will glvo light
upon light as man goes on honestly
and sincerely Booking to know truth at
thiB point.
- Then let thero bo an uttor and com-
piete surrender of tho soul to Jesus
Christ. When Saul of Tarsus cried:
"What shall I do, Lord?" as ho lay
prostrato on tho earth by tho gate of
Damascus, bo mado tho great surren
der which brought him to personal sal
vation, but as well to tho adoption ot
principles that gavo him a program ot
conduct ploaulng to God,
