"And forgive us our trespasses as wo forgive those who trespass against ua." The morning service was in progress at Trinity Cathedrjl. The "general con fession" and the "absolution" had re ceived a fervent "amen" from the kneel, ing congregation, and the sound of voices repeating the Lord's prayer float ed out upon the Sabbath stillness. "And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive" Why was it that at thin place one soft voice became suddonly silent and a golden head bent quickly forward, while two rosy cheekB showed an extra touch of crimsor through tho meshes of the enshrouding veil? 'What is that we are saying?'' thought Jeesio Wharton to herself.

The charge, therefore, for a round wonder if it really means that we will be forgiven only as we forgive our ene mies, that set me to be all we are ask ing for, any way!'' The congregation had now arisen, and the choir was sing ing that beautiful anthem, "O come let us sing unto the Lord." "Forgive, for give, forgive." the music seemed to say to Jessie's heart. "Yes but I can't for give this time," protested that rebellious little heart.

Many of the Brethren will probably want to visit EOtse of the numerous Ger man Baptist settlements in Nebraska before returning home. Any one who presents a certificate of deposit to the Burlington Route agent at Lincoln will tention to the sermon. "Forgive us our trespasses' the words still echoed and re-echoed in her ears. "There she is now, the little hypocrite," she thought, as her glance fell upon a slender girl in brown on the other side of the church. "As we forgive those who trespass against us!"

In it is a very large sectional map of the state, with reference marks which in dicate where the Brethren settlements are located. It tells about the crops What right had she to plead for forgive. ness while her heart was so bitter against a fellow-being under the same roof with herself!

Jessie walked quickly across the church. "Good morniug, Annie." she said. "I wish you would come to the organ re cital with me this afternoon!
