(Copyright, 1911, by New Tork Herald Co ) Who's Who in the Home "l.o you know that tomorrov Is the Jlth of June?" asked the Hopeful House Wife with euppreHBed eaperneea. The Confirmed Commuter rave a pullty start. Had he forpotten her birthday arain or was It by any chance their wed dlnr anniversary? "Ilememher It ? Of course, 1 remember It ! Do you thlr.k I'm the sort of duffer that would forget a thlnp like that?" he tem porised. Hli wife laughed. "Oh, you fraud!" ahe exclaimed. "It's not a sentimental occasion at all. and you don't know what you're talking about! Put down that paper while I explain It to you." The Confirmed Commuter laid down the base ball edition with a sign. "Three months ago tomorrow," ah be gun dramatically, ' "we had a little talk about economy or, to be accurate, you delivered a monologue on the subject. Ton Raid we ouaTht to save more money, that U was a shame that persons with our income should live to such a hand-to-mouth fash ion, and you Intimated that It waa all my ' fault."

Tou spend tie or (15 and haven't a thing to show for It. Tou actually don't know where It went- Now, a man knows what he does with his money. He" "Tes, dear; I remember what you said," his wife interrupted hurriedly. "Why, If I hadn't taken what you said ao much to heart I never would have proposed our little scheme that we each save what we oould from our pocket money and at the end of three months compare the results. I've got my bank book aH ready. Have I yciu?" 1 The Confined Commuter smiled his most - tolerent smile. She seemed so happy, so confident, that it was a pity to have to overwhelm her with the evidence of bis superior prudence and economy. For, notwithstanding her eareroees to compare her boarded wealth with his, he knew that her savings must be pitifully mall. Why, she had paid IX tor a aecond spring hat and he had smiled secretly at the hole the purchane must have made in her aavlnps and rood intentions. Then there was that ailly high priced parasol. - "I'll bet ahe Isn't HQ ahead of the came," he had aaid to hlnutelf w hen she made the purchases. The Confirmed Commuter felt in the In ter pocket of his coat and drew forth the unpretentious record of what he rerarded aa three months of strong, resolute, mascu line self-denial. "Never mind, baby." he said consollr.ply, "you've got a nice hat and the riddicBt parasol In Mountalnvtlle, even if you haven't much money left." "That' o," freed the Hopeful House wife, with unaccustomed meekness; "I haven't eaved as much money as I hoped to, but, you know, women a ciothes cost ao much more than men's. And there were some thing I really had to have " The Confirmed Commuter lauphed good naturedly uproariously. 'SHE HAD THE GIDTMEPT PARASOL IN MOUNT AINTJXLE." "Of course, dear, I understand.," ha aaid. 'I was thinking the other day when I was figuring how much money I had saved up that you'd probably want to borrow it all. I never really expected you to save any money," ha added magnanimously. "I Just wanted to prove to you that it' th women that spend recklessly." The Hopeful Housewife looked at him with a bland and infantile star. "Tea," she aaid, "I know; but now !' comiare our bank hooka" . As she sioke she held a little leather book open before her, Ilk a hand at poker. , "What have you rot?" ah asked. Th Confirmed Commuter opened his own bank book and stared at the figure writ ten therein with the discreetly muffled triumph of one about to lay down four aoes "I have SM.I6." he said proudly. "And you, dear?" Once more his wife gased cryptically tnto her bank book. ' "It's women that spend recklessly," " he quoted slowly "1148.J0," ahe added. The Confirmed Commuter rasiied, stared, picked up her bank book and looked at It. Defeat, wonder, consternation, admiration. were written on his face. "That good." waa all he said.

There are many voices In our day that seek to separate us from a'mple child like faith In the Lord Jesus Christ. That view of Christianity that consists and flows out of faith in the Lord Jesus aa our only sufficient Savior In this wor.d and th next Is deemed Insufficient by many. One need not become very old before one meets the fnort widely different views a to what Christianity is Especially in i larpe rltles does one reed strong foot hold, a rock for one's faith to rest on. If he would not be shaken by the many voices one hears, each of them claiming to be an answer to the Question. "What shall I do to be saved?" After all. that Is the one enduring question, and lias been throuph out all time. The world has been and Is full of questions. They may chanpe thelr foim and appearance according as to time and its demands chanr. But thi ques tion has never clianped. It was put up be fore our eyes that day the rates of Para dise closed on our first parents; as it was on that day so It if to this day the same unchanped question. It has not its equal in Importance. It Is a question of life and death; yes eternal life and eternal death. It lies at th bot tom of all human lonrlng. It cannot be torn out of the soul except the soul suf fers and die and if that question re mains unsolved or unanswered in a man's oul that soul will perish. When does this question first demand an answer? Tou Bay, Oh, when one grows up and has begun to look upon Ufa seriously. No. even before thst. The crying of a child shows its acquaintance with It; a yearning to answer It shows itself in young rrowing up ieople, though not so clearly aa in grown up people experienced In life's conflicts; but It appears most clearly when death calls ("What shall I do to b saved ?") Who can answer It? Eo that the answer really Is an answer that satisfies the deep eat yearning. Whoever or wherever we are this question, the greatest of all question, will one day confront ua.

Mho hath created u all to be saved and 'the tidings of the angfle to the shepherds blessed. In this is found the beRinning of all life. In Thy light we shall see light We find it In that light of the word of God In the text. The apostle Paul points out the answer to his disciple and fellow worker, Timothy He points out to him the light of the word of God that he, Tim othy, has received from him and then ad moniahes him earnestly to cling to that only and shun all other teaching, as the final and only answer to the . question, "What ahall I do to be saved?" Why doe Paul need to speak like this to Timothy? To strengthen and enlighten him so that he would not be ensnared by false teachings Into the world, for Timothy is young and Is about to start out to teach and preach and Paul fear his declple might be drawn from the gospel In hrist Jesus, which he had always tauph htm. Therefore, before departing, he wishes to give him a touchstone, by w hich be could always prove the correct answer to th question, "What shall I do to be saved?" Therefore, after first admonishing htm against perilous times and false teachings, he will have to encounter, he adds; but continue them in the things which thou has learned, etc. This Is then God's an swer, through his Inspired servant, Paul. What Timothy has learned and believed, that which Paul admonishes him to abide in, to live and die for, namely the gospel at Bethlehem, yet it comes out on the last pages In Revelation. . "Purely 1 came quickly; even so came 'Lord Jesus ' " Now to come back to the original question, w hy is all this written? The Apostle John tells us near the close of his gospel. "Put thes thine are written that ye mlpht believe that Jesus is the Christ the Bon of God. and that believing, ye mirht have life In His Name." This was In the apostles minu th highest wisdom. He says that this wisdom Is profitable for doctrine Which doctrine? In the apostle's mind there Is only one doctrine that deserves that name. It is that one that teaches us the way to salvation; thst teaches us the way through Him who said: "I am the way, the truth and the life; no one cometh to the Father, but by Me. To believe tn Jesus is your only Savior from sin and death, your only hope of aalvation and that alone by grace, without any merit In uk. and that for the simple reason that God so loved the world this the apostle calls the greatest wlBdom and doctrine and this Is taught by the Holy Scriptures alone. He that has been taurht this doctrin with prayer to God for the enlightenment of His Holy Spirit, with him there will not be the sllrhtest doubt as to the correct an swer to the question, "What shall I do to be saved!"
