Tn a report of the Honso Committee (Washington) appears the following: "Canada offers a three-year home Btoad upon good land, easily reclaimed and cultivated, with six months' leave of absence each ear and most lenient regulations." All of which Is true and It is now the part of the careful reader to con elder the opportunities that exist In Western Canuda which, In addition to the above, are attractive features. The evidence of these is found In the letteis contributed by some of the BCttlerfl. For instance: A former Mln nesotan, writing from Warner, South ern Alberta, speaks of that district, but what ho says, applies generally to all of Southern Albertn. Ho nays: "I lmc seen six crops, four of them cero first class, one of them a very good crop, and the other a poor crop. Government statistics for tho last fif teen years show that this country has acraged about fifteen or sixteen Inches of moisture. In 1910 there was only seven Inches, and in 1911 twenty two Inches. Tho 1909 crop was about ns good as I hnvo seen in this coun try and wo had about twelve Inches ot moisture, bo that I am thoroughly con vinced that with normal conditions, that Is, from twelve- to fifteen inches of moisture, and with tho natural in creaso of population and Immigration, that Southern Albertn will bo ono of tho very best mixed farming districts In tho world. Wo have good Boil, good water, and a good climate, and alto gether Just as desirable a country to live in as Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, or Wisconsin." Hundreds of letters nro on fllo from former American settlers, which give good reasons why the Western Can ada lands nro being settled so rapidly. Full particulars can be had of any Ca nadian Governrricnt Agent, who will furnish literature and give low rato certificates. Excursions are being run dally.

Things do not happen In tho realm of religion, they como to pass. Nc man can nlono accomplish any grcnt taBk. Every great leader has been blessed by ono or moro equally great hejpcrs. 'Luther had his Mclancthon; Wesley had his brother Cluulcs, Whit field and others; Moody had Whittle, IHIbb, Sankcy and more. Thcso lend ers but followed "In his steps." Jesus' ministry mado him very much observed and nt tho snmo tlmo grcntly multiplied his duties nnd bur dens. When, therefore, ho chose these dlsclplcB ho desired not only to ob tain help nnd to begin to tench those who wcro afterward to tako up his work, but lilto every other act, ho de sired to teach a lesson to those who were so carefully observing hln life. So It wns that tho significant num ber of twelve, corresponding to tho, twelvo tribes, nt onco confirmed lilsj nsstimptlon of tho MesslnliHlilp. Thin meant that in him those wondrous prophecies wero being fulfilled, nnd ( also served to stimulate thoso upon whom tho cholco fell, Moses who led this people out of Egypt had to bo helped (Ex. 18:17-24) In his work nnd n greater who Is to found a new kingdom calls about him thoso who shall do a greater work than merely to Judgo tho people. Why greater? Bccauso thoy are not only to Judgo results but nro to change results by altering causes. Thoy nro to havo power over demons even as tho Mas ter, for evil hns no rights. The source of their power Is to bo Jesus for ho Is to bo "with them" power nnd pro. tection ns well. So with us. (Matt. 28:20.) Their power is to grow with usage, for we learn by doing, hence be sends them forth. Some Things It Teaches and Why. This lesson is different from our previous ono where Jesus first called hU disciples. I.uko tells us that thcBe twelve wero selected from among the rest of tho disciples. The greater nearness nnd moro extended author ity of theso "messengers" called uponi them greater testings thnn tho others, who were disciples or "learners." Mntthew tells us what Jesus saldj Is to bo tho character of his repre-. sentntlves. Ho likens them to salt and to n light. "Nothing is bettor fori tho whole body than salt and sun", wero the words of Pliny. Salt Is a great cleansing agency; it is a strong1' tonic; it haB great prescrvativo quali ties; it Is a great preventlvo agnlnBt corruption, but Jesus adds, if snlt loses Its salino quality it becomes like nny other earth; it has no dis tinguishing essential, characteristic. Let not tho Christian, who is "tho salt of the earth" lose his identity, lose his saltness and become llko tho world about him. If ho docs ho Is fit then only, to bo trodden under tho foot of man. These disciples nre to bo the light of the world. It is a good thing to preserve, to purify, to clennso, but it Is a greater thing to energize, to direct, to lead. How Men Are Saved. These apostles came from many walks in life and represent varied tem peraments. Tho aggressive Peter and tho other "son of thunder" who would, call down flro upon those who walked not with Jesus. The reflective cauj tlous Thomas, the plotting practical Judns, "who also betrayed hlra.'l Theso are the men who are sent forth,' some as public heralds (John 1:36)' and somo by personal solicitation) (Jas. 1:41) to win yet other followers,1 Men ore saved through saved men nnd thoso whom he sends forth arej those who have first learned to fol-j low. Their work is made permanent! only ns'they "abldo" in Mm. 'Godj wants tho hearing ear, tho believing heart and tbo confessing mouth t (Rom. 10:14). Those whom Jesus sends are to of fer his kingdom to men not to forccj it upon thorn. Thoy must expect to bo received nB ho was received nndj how that shall bo ho plainly foretells; (Ma.t. 10). Tbefr work shall bring varlnnco fipon earth, yes ovon among; those of tho sarao family, but tho man) who refuses to go, to tako up this cross, is none of his, "is not worthy! of me." Jesus saw plainly that tho victories of hls4 kingdom aro often hindered rather 'than helped by tho presence of great crowds (v. 12). Why send out Judas? Undoubtedly ho bnd all the desired qualifications for leadership, and chosen as he was that ho "might bo with him" he need, not havo hardened his heart, bringing upon himself the greater condemna tion. Jesus had a three-fold work for these disciples: (1) to preach; (2) to heal; (3) to cast out demons noto tho spiritual need is tho foremost one. Then comes the ministry o! healing, to invert the order Is to pre vent tho teaching of the Book.
