Hence, 1 the petition Is one I for forgiveness of sins. . We nre so ac customed ,to hear of God's forgiveness ' that we luke. It for granted. Howevei, : Bishop Westcntt has said Uiat It Is an ! amazing thing that a holy God forgives sin ; he Is not surprised to Iieur that the wroth of such a God burns to the lowest hell. Against sin ners; but that he .has . found a way to be .Just-as-, yet to Justify .the ungodly Is the very mystery of' the Gospel. And; when God fprgtves he does It fully and freely ; he blots:out,our sins, renicinhers them no more.icnsts them behind' his back, buries, them In the eea. . i , ,,;. .-, ; '..' , Martin Luther's Experience.' There are manjv even among pro fessing' Christians who do- not enjoy a true sense of thefoTElvIng love of God. -.For them, the' experience of Martin Luther may bo helpful.- While still a monk he would exclaim, "O my slu ! O my sin !" As he luy one day on a couch in despair an old monk repented softly the -words of the creed, "I believe In the forgiveness of sins," and added, ."We are not merely to believe that there Is forgiveness for David and Peter; the command of God is that we believe that there is forgiveness for our own sins." This prayer for forgiveness is to be uttered dully by the child of God. All are Included In "us." Some have thought they no longer-needed to pray this prayer, because of their nttaln- .nients In gruce. We suspect they are lacking In that deep view of sin which the Scriptures give us. "If we say we have no 'Sin, we deceive ourselves and .the truth Is not In us";(l John 1:8). . Necessity of Forgiving. Others. !. The petition contuloi a cliutHO over Which some have-stumbled, ,lus we' forgive" or Vlinve-forglven" (It.' V.). It Is pointed out that this fs legul ground, Vthat no reference is made to the atonement nnd that the prayer was given before the cross and hence should not be ottered by Christians. AVe believe this objection rests on a misapprehension. Men have never been forgiven on the ground of having lurgtveii itinera, uui uu uiiuum ui iiiu u shedding of Christ's blood and this j has been true from the days of Abel "As" does not mean "on, the ground" or "In the measure" but "even as ' "since."

Instead jit has taken Us pluce along with Its opular owner antf his three sons In 'waY endeavor.- Of late years visitors iat Sagamore Hill have observed that .Colonel Itoosevelt's silver paper cut jter has become the outward symbol of the big'stlck. ;" Waved In the air or pounded on the desk' to emphasize the ltoosevclt opiu ,'loua, this ordinary ofllce appurtenance 'of . silver soon became as famous as jtho' Imaginary, weapon wielded by the .Colonel In all of the best cartoons jwhen he resided on Pennsylvania ave nue In Washington, D. C, nnd dlrect : ecrthe desOnles of Uie V. S. A. Had It not been for Mrs; William Allen Bartlett, chairman of the Treas ure and Trinket l'uud of Uie Aviation Committee of the National Special Aid Society at 259 Fifth Avenue, New York City, the paper cutter might have con tinued to dent the Roosevelt desk and pound home tho ltoosevclt patriotic ap peals for some years. But by. becom ing a part of the Treasure and Trinket Fund the battered sliver paper cuttor Is fulfilling a higher destiny. , i This Fund by selling treasured gold and silver objects, or by having them melted, when. not salable, at the U. S. Assuy Olllce, enables hundreds of Uncle Sam's aviators to acquire the special .equipment for flying which 'is notjncludcd in the' government's Issue. It occurred to Mrs. liuitlett that the Colonel's paper cutter would be a splendid addition to tho Fund, so uho i dispatched a squad of Girl Scouts to O.Vster Buy, and tho illustration shows ! them receiving the famous paper cut- j ter from tho C61onel's Imnds. He,, of , course, Instantly agreed to part with ; It, and the mlnlnturo Big Stick Is. now , on sale at the Fund's show room. i Mrs. Bartlett expects that It wll ; bring a sufficient sum to equip several J aviators for their task of beating' ' the Hun. Any article of value, any hit of plate, an antique or art object which i would help In . this .work may he sent ! to the Treasure and Trinket Fund aU , 259 Fifth Avenue.

An Indian's Forgiveness. Dr. Kgerton It. Young, an honored missionary among the Indians of the North, tells of once rending the Lord's prayer to a company nf warriors. When he came to "Forglvo us our trespasses as we forgive them that trespass ngiilnst us," a Chief asked, "What does that mean?1 5nld Doctor Y'oung.
