that she never knew ho- faint he real

path.
They were all afoot now descending
swiftly, and the horses romped down
the trail with expectant haste, so that
in less than an hour from timb-r line
they were b.n k into the sunshine of
the liv.er valley, and : t M o'clock or

nticent from weariness and with joy
of their camping place.
With businesslike certitude IVrrie
unsaddled her horse, turned him loose
and lent a skillful hand at removiiip
the panniers from the pack animals,
while Wayland. wiilir;g. but a little un
certain, stood awkwardly about. Un
der her instruction he collected dead
branches of a standing fir. and from
these a few cones kindled a blaze,
while the supervisor hobbled the horses
and set the tent.
One l y one the principb-s of camping
were tausht by the kindly old rancher,
but the hints which the pirl pave were
(pai'.e as valuable, for Wayland was
eager to show her that he could be
and intended to be a forester of tht
urt :-lass or icri-d) iu the attempt.
Mil rrl.inc vent further and talked
fret ly of the forest and what it meant
to the government. "We're all green
at the work." he said, "and we old
chaps are only holding the fort against
the thieves till you youngsters learn
iow to make the best use of the do
main." I'.errie w-;is glowing with happiness.
"Lets stay here till the end of the
week." she suggested. "I've always
wanted to camp oti thi1? ht-ke. and now
I'm here I want time t;i en.V'y it."
"We'll sty a any or two." sntfl tser
father, "but I must jjet oyer tothat
ditch survey which is 1-einp made at
the head .of I'oplar. and then Moore
Js cominp ever to look at some timber
on rorc'.ti inc."
The yotii'p people cut willow rods
and went anphnp at the outlet "f the
inl:o with prodipions success. The wa
ter rippled with" 'trout, and in half an
hoir they had all they could u--,r.C
supper and breakfast, and. behold, even
as they were returning with their spoil
they met a cdvey of prouse strolling
leisurely down to t he lake's edge. "Isn't
It a wonderful place?" exclaimed the
happy pirl. "I wish we could stay a
month."
"It's like being on the Swiss Family
Ilobinsons island. 1 never was more
content." he said fervently. "I
wouldn't mind stayinp here all win
ter." "I wonldl" she laughed. "The snow

could pet them out. This is a ficVce
old place in winter time."
As the sunset came on the young
people again loitered down to the wa
ter's edge, and there, seated side by
side tin a rocky knoll, watched the
phantom gold lift from the willows
and climb slowly tit the cliffs above,
while the water deepened in shadow
ind busv nmskrats marked its glossy
surlace witn long snvery lines. .Mis-
ihievoMs camp birds peered at the
couple from the branches of the pines,
utierirs satirical comment, while
squirrels, frankly insolent, dropped
cones upon their heads and barked in
saucy glee.
Wayiand forgot all the outside world,
forgot that he was studying to be c
forest ranker, and was alive only to
the fa t that in this most bewitching
place, in this most entrancing hour, he
had the companionship of a girl whose
eyes sought his with everr new idiase
ot tiie silent ami woutiertui scene which
shifted before their eyes like a noise
less yet prodigious drama.
At last the pirl rose. "It is petting
dark. I must po back and get sup
per." "We don't need any supper," be pro
tested. "Father does, and you'll be hungry
lc fore morning." she retorted, with
sure knowledge of men.
lie turned from the scene reluctant
ly, but once at the camp tire cheerfully
pave his ln-st efforts to the work iu
Land, seconding I'.errie's skill as best
be could.
Tlie trout, deliciously crisp, and some
potatoes and batter cakes made a meal
that tempted even his faint appetite,
and when the dishes were washed and
the towels hung out to dry deep night
possessed even the high summit or
-t!ito!r T'tnrniipan.
McFarlanu then said. "I'll just take
a little turn to see that the horses are
all right, and then I think we'd better
closie in for the night."
When they were alone in the light
of the fire WnUand turned to I'.errie:
"I'm glad you're here. It must le
awesome to camp clone in a wilder
ness, and et. I suppose, I must learn
to do it."
"Yes, the ranger often has to camp
alone, rule alone and work alone, for
weeks at a time." she assured him. "A
good trailer don't mind a night trip
any more than he does a day trip, or
if he does he never admits it. Kain.
snow, darkness, are all the same to him.
Most of the boys are fifteen to forty
miles from the postollice."
lie smiled ruefully. "I begin to have
new doubts about this ranger business.
It's a little mote vigorous than I
thought it was. Suppose a fellow
breaks a leg on one of those high
trails?"
"He mustn't!" she hastened to say.
"He can't afford really to take reckless
chances; but. then, father won't e.iect
as much of you as he does of the old
stagers. You'll have plenty of time to
get used to it."
McFariane upon his return pave
some advice relating to the care of
horses. "All this stock which is ac
customed to a barn or a pasture will
tji'.it you." he warned. "Watch your
bronchos. Tut them on the outward
side of your camp when yon bed down
and pitch your tent near the trail, then
you will hear the brutes if they start
back. Some nun tie their stock all up,
hut I usually picket my saddle horse
nnfi bUd.-Ie the rest."
It was a delightful hour for school
ing, and Wayland would have been
content to sit there till morning listen
ing, but the air bit. ami at last the
Mipervlsor asked: "Have you made
your bed? If you have turn in. I shall
get you out early tomorrow." As he
saw the bed he added: "I s(e you've
laid tint a bed of boughs. That shows
how eastern you art?. We don't do that
out here. It's too cold iu this climate,
nnd it's too much work. You want to
hup the ground if it's dry."
The weary youth went to his couch
with n sense of timorous elation, for
fie never before slept beneath the open
sky.
After the suicrvisor had rolled him
self Iu the blanket, long after all
sounds had ceased in the tent, there
still remained for the youth a score
of manifold excitations to wakefulness
till at last he fell into an uneasy
drowse.

W. 0."il St.. deliv
ered a very inter
estinc discourse to
day from the test.
Inasmuch as ye
have done it unto
one of the least of
these My brethren,
ye have done it
unto Me." (Mat
FASTOK KU5SELLJ
thew Ho:40.) He
spoke in part as follows:
This text of Scripture is generally
misunderstood and misused. If one
has not studied it in its connections,
one would quite likely think that i.ie
Lord is referring to those who have
lived during the Gospel Age: but the
coutext shows tfcat He refers to thoso
living in the Millennial A?re. The prin
ciple, however, is helpful to us now.
lioever does a kindness for any one
lielouiug to the Lord is counted by
Iliui as having done it unto Himself.
In the partible of the Sheep and the
Croats we read. "'When the Sou of Man
shall come in all His :lory. and all the
holy anjrels with Him, then shall He
sit upon the Throne of His glory;
apd before Him shall le gathered ail
natious" liooples. not the Church.
The Church will be with Him in His
Throne. (Colossians U:4.) Those spo
kcu of here as gathered before the
Throne will he the whole world of
mankind. These are sometimes called
Gentiles, meaning those not iu cove
nant relationship with God.
In the past God made a covenant
with the nation of Israel alone. There
fore all other nations and peoples were
outsiders. I Hiring this Gospel A'-e the
Iord has made a covenant with the
Church, throuah Christ, a special Cov
enant of Sacrifice, into which you and
I are privileged to enter. The opportu
nity to make this Covenant of Sacrifice
has been open throughout the Gospel
Age; and all who come to Clod through
that covenant are said to be Israelites
indeed. Galatians 1. 20.
Our text refers, not to Christians, but
to Gentiles the peoples and nations,
the world in gcneial. Before Messiah's
Throne shall he gatheml all people, all
nations. "And He Khali separate them
the one from the other, as a shepherd
divideth his sheep from the goats." It
is not a class separation, inn an mui
vidtial one. Whoever, after trial, dem
onstrates that he is a goat will go over
to the left hand; whoever proves him
self to be a sheep will go to the right.
Tlie whole picture refers to the thou
sand years of the Messianic Reign. It
is a picture of the worlds judgment,
the world's trial. Tlie sole object of
that Reign is to prove who will desire
to be God's sheep, to come into 11 is
fold and have His Son as their Shep
herd, and who will not come into har
mony with llim. but will have a goat
like nature. Then Christ will deal Willi
them accordingly.
A Thousand Years of Separating Work.
Gradually all the goats are gathered
to the left hand, and all the sheep to
the right hand. In figurative language
the Iird thus designates the place of
disfavor and that of favor. These two
classes will not be aware of the fact
that they are going to the riht or to
the left, as the parable shows. Not
until the conclusion of the trial do they
tind out where they stand.
The question arises. In what way
will the people have an opportunity of
ministering to the Lord's brethren dur
ing the Millennial Age? We note that
the Apostles were in prison Mmetimes
iK'cause of their service to the Lord
and were ministered unto; and that
fsoine of the Lord's followers since
have been in prison or in need of as
istance: "but that probably not very
many have leeii in prison or hungry
or naked. Presumably it has been so
all down the Gospel Age. Hence it is
didieuU Id see how this parable could
have any reference to us. Now we see
what the parable means, and this is
the explanation:
Throughout the Millennnial Age The
Messiah will lie dealing with the world
of mankind, the majority of whom are
now in the great prison-house of
death. The Apostle Paul, in speaking
of the resurrection, says that the dead
shall come forth "every man in his
own orifer." or company, or class.
They wiil not all conie forth at once.
The Church class will come forth first:
then the Great Company class: and

of God." (Luke 13:23.) They wU be
the human representatives of

So we have these orders, at ie:ii:
the Little Flock, the Greet Company,
the Ancient Worthies, and the world
of m:iiikiiid "every man in Lis ov. u

V;r.i6t?ring Unto Millennial Brethren.
We do net understand that iu the
Millennial Ate the people will have
power to command the dead to come
forth from the tomb, but t hat our
Lord Jesus will have that power. As
He prayed for the restoration of La".a-rti--.
not because of any service which
Lazarus would do for Him. but be
cause Lazarus v:is the brother of Mar
tha and M;iry, so ve conceive that
nearly a!i the world will come forth in
answer to the prayers of their broth
ers, their sisters, their patents, children
and friends.
. To illustrate: Suppose that you and
I were of the Lest it tit ion class, nid
Dot of the Church class Srp;iosi that
we were living down in the Millennial
Age. end that Restitution had proares
ed so far that the world was in g tod
shape plenty of machinery for con
ducting affairs, uinie being produced
than Tvas needed, etc. Then the Lord
Would let us know. n a world, that
we might have the privilege of eo-op-rar:iig
with God. tht we might join
with Christ in the wo--f of Restitution.
We mivht say. "First of all. let us
prey for father." We would not de
sire to have father get here and tind
that there was no place for him to eat
or sleep or live; so we would make pro
vision for him.
Similarly, we would provide for
mother and for other relatives. Ha-di
would thus be brought forth, prepara
tions being mride to assist theui wh-u:
t
they should come back into life. This
whole work of bringing mankind back
into life will be God's work. It will
be the work of the Lord Jesus Christ,
the work of spirit beings, as God's
arrents. Rut human beings will bo per
mitted to co-operate, through their in
terest in humanity.
The ".sheep" class of that Age wiil
be those who wiil have the Lord's
spirit; and as the Lord's purpose w'll
be to bring ieoplo back from doaih. to
teach them and to prepare them for
eternal life, all the sheep will feel the
same way. This they will do gladly,
be'-ausp they have a Ime for this wmlc.
They will he feedi.ig. clothing and
helping tiiose whom they have gotten
out of the prison-house of deatii.
Their prayers v. ill go out continually
after those in prison. This explains
the whole work of the Millennial Age.
and shows how all the people will come
into harmony with God.
The Indiueient, Selfish Class.
Rut there will be some wln will say,
"I do not care so much about this mat
ter, i would rather go atdomobiling
than to care for these people." The
sheep class wiil be busy working,
working right along; but the goat class
wiil be showing their selfish disposi
tion. God does not purpose that any
who are selfish shall have everlasting
life. Selfishness came in as a result
of sin. You and I were born selfish,
and could not help it; but we have bet
ter knowledge now. We are liegh.iiing
to see (bid's way. All then in true
sympathy with God and righteousness
will be cultivating love in their hearts.
After tiie sheep class have provided
for those already recovered from the
prison-house of death, they will say.
."Now let ns ask for others to come
back. Let us get hack Fixde .lini."
The others will say. "I do not see why
we should bother about Fu de Jim. lie
was only a distant relative. He did
not leave me anything when lie died."
1.5 ut the one with the sheep-like dispo
sition will stay. "Poor old l'n le Jim!
1 shall try to give him a good wel
come back". He will wonder that con
ditions are so changed, lie never saw
those things which we now have.
When he died, he thought that lie was
going to Hell. This w ill be the great
est blessing he ever had!"
The Loving, Unselfish Class.
Thus the sheep class will take their
pleasure along the lines in which God
and Christ will be taking theirs. I o
you think that God. Christ and the
Church will be running aroun 1 Heav
en in automobiles V The sheep class
will say. in effect. "How can we co
operate with Christ in this work of
blessing the world':" Thy may not
realize it. but they will lie developing
a noble. Christlike character. They
will be doing themselves good as well
as thos raised from 1 lie de:ul.
At the el se of the Age the Lord will
ay to the sheep class. "I was an hun-
ered. and ye gave Me meat; 1 was
thirsty, and ye gave Me drink: I was
a stranger, and ye took Mo m; nuked.
s,nd ye clothed Me: sick and in prison.
and ye visited Me": for 'inasmuch as
ye did it. unto one of the least of these,
ye did it uiito Me." You did i.or know
