It is not your radio but the charger i that operate* from the light socket. The current operate* the charger, which | charges your batteries. The battencs operate the radio set. Instead of elim inating anything, you have added one more part and expense. These device* certainly have merit and are a real convenience to those who have radio* and cannot afford to sacrifice them for a Roger*.

Two Outstanding Tours It ha* been truly said that Travel is a liberal education" and this expres sion was never so true as it is today. The whole world, so to speak, has been made ea*" of access by transportation system*, by rail, ocean, automobile and aeroplane. While the advantages of travel are now available to the many instead of the few, the refinements of modern railroad transportation and the exacting requirements of the modern traveller as regards his creature com fort have combined to make the de tailed arrangement* of an extensive tourist trip rather, complex. Every traveller making a vacation trip wishes to derive the utmost benefit in pleasure and education and to spend as little time as possible arranging its many de tail*. the itinerary and train connec tion*. securing sleeping car. rteamcr. ^nd hotel reservations, etc. He desires also to make the best possible use of the time available by the inclusion of the most important and worth-while at tractions and above all, to know how much it will cost. All this is done for you in the “Per sonally Conducted All-Expense Tonrs." which have become so popular with the Canadian public, the best known and most popular being the splendid tours operated via the Canadian National Railways, under the direction of Mr. Martin Kerr. BA. (4 Beulah Ave.. Ont.) and Mr. A. E Bryson (44 Silver- thorn Ave., Toronto, Ont.) of the Kerr-Bryson Tour*. Two more such tours arc announced for July 1927- one from Toronto through the Cana dian West to the Pacific Coast .includ ing Wainwright Park. Jasper National Park, the Triangle Tour. Vancouver and Victoria, B.C.. returning through the L'nijed State* via Yellowstone Park. Salt Lake City. Denver. Color ado Springs, Pike’s Peak and Chicago. The other from Toronto east to Mont real, Quebec. Stc. Anne de Beaupre, River, the Maritime Province*. Saint John. N.B.. Prince Edward Island, the Bras d'Or lakes, Halifax, N.S.. the Land of Evangeline. Annapolis!Valley, Boston. Mas*., and finally Ottawa, the capital of the Dominion. Descriptive Booklets of both these tour* will be available vey shortly and in the mean time further information may be /ecur ed, from any National Railways agent or from the organizer*. If you have not been previously in terested in these tour*, it is well worth your while to enquire about them ; they will solve your vacation problem. Mra.

HYMN O God of Bethel, by whose hand Thy people still are fed; Who through this weary pilgrimage Hast all our fathers led: Our vows, our prayers, we now present Before Thy throne of grace; God of our fathers, be the God Of our succeeding race! PRAYER Our heavenly Father, we would seek at Thy hind not only the bread neces sary tor our bodily welfare, but above all that Bread of Life so needful for our souls. So often we have tried to satisfy the hunger of our hearts with the trifling things of time, and spiritual starvation has been our lot Now we turn to Thee. O Living Bread, and long to feast upon Thee that we may be satisfied. Pardon our manifold trans gressions. Lighten our darkness with the light of Thy love. Speak to our hearts peace amidst the storms of life. Strengthen us to endure all the dis- Esations of Thy Providence. For is sake. Amen. SCRIPTURE John 6: 22-58.

A Mw years ago It would appear In- ■redlble that the motor truck should ■1 ppi ant the faithful servants as Kuch as it has. Tractors are en- ■eavorlng to edge him off the field ■x>; how long can he last? ■ We have become so modernized— Bose of us who buy gasoline—that Be are gradually coming to regard old grey marc with more or less ■edaln. When wc think of horses Bi terms of transport, we are be aming more Inclined to picture them Baggering before a junk wagon or Bdtingly mobilizing a calechc or cn- Bole, these beasts of whom so much Bos been written, whose devotion and Kithfulness has Inspired pods and Ktlsts. J. E. Coulter, assistant to Bio vice-president of the Canadian Baclflc Express Company gave us Bilte a shock recently. Ho drives a ■ar which Is paid for, uses consider- B>le of the company's gasoline and Bkd just completed the purchase of Bx new trucks—beautiful things—of Bhlch he Is very proud. "The horse" Be said, "the horse wilf never be al- Bgether replaced on the road, and I Bill live to see the day when he will Replace some of the trucks". K And Bon he waxed eloquent We could lee that had he been born fifty years Brller—"Ed" Is a very young man— le Canadian Pacific would have had >me of the "nattiest turnouts" poa- ble. Coulter has over two hundred lotor vehicle* to keep close record of. but he says that his company will only replace a horse where it is proven that an actual economy will be effected. "On long runs, whore two horse wagons hare not quite enough work to keep them both busy a motor vehicle will perhaps be more economical, but one motor vehicle, he said, will not economically replace one horse In our service, and parti cularly in congested areas where many stops must be made". This from a man who lives by efficient transportation. Mr. Coulter believes that part of maintenance of horses.wagons and other vehicles should be charged to advertising. That Is why one never sees one of tho vehicles under his direction in need of a coat of paint He has been able to keep in his stables too, that pride In horse-flesh that was almost a feature of Hfe fifty years ago. Not all of hit horses axe young ones, but moat of them have a record of some kind or another, and when thoy are finished with express service, they are given the life of case they have earned. In the To ronto stables Is one horse of which tho whole organization is excep tionally proud. "Ed" Coulter will tell you about this fine grey gelding and of bow ho compares with the late "Marquis". The champion "Ben" joined the service of the Canadian Pacific Express Company three years ago and has worked eight hours a day since.

Again, near the conclusion, he wrote: "Come to me. my own, my beloved, mv famil iar darling—come and bring light and joy once more to my darkened, deso lated home." There wcre many pages filled with j:i*t such desperate lamentation* and ravings as these. And the maiden read and wept as if her heart would break. Keenly—keenly she tell his -orrow,! and never, never had her af fection for the hoy. whose very neces sities endeared him the more to her heart—been *0 deep and solicitous. She answered his letter immediately; renewing all her former assurance* of unchanging affection and fidelity; ex- prevting her painful sympathy with his griefs; telling him that his want of faith in her father and in herself was the chief clement in his unhappiness; finally begging him to confide in her father, accept hi* invitation, and come to see her at the Hall. She dispatched thi* letter. And that very same afternoon back came an answer—just a* mad as any of its predecessors—in the course of which he told her that to invite him to visit her there at the Hall, where he should sec her only in a circle of fine ladies and gentlemen, whose presence would prevent him. though hi* bosom were bursting from relieving it. by speaking one true word to her—was a mockery, and worse than a mockery. He did not want that—that was the fate of Tantalus. No! he wanted her in hi* home. And this, he said, was his last appeal. Would she come, he ask ed ; would she come and restore him to himself? This was his last appeal, he repeated. If she would lis.cn to it. from the most wretched, she would render him the happiest being on earth! If she would not, then his home and neighborhood, grown hateful and in tolerable. would be abandoned; he should sell all he possessed, an I go off; he knew not. cared not. where! to meet he knew not. cared not. what fate! There, she had his life, his reason, his destiny here and hereafter, in her hand*. Would she sacrifice him? The bitterest tear* that maiden had ever shed were dropped upon his let ter; but she was not for a moment tempted to swerve from duty. She answered it sadly but firmly; reassur ing hnn of her undying affection, but reiterating her resolution never to wrong her father’s confidence; and saying: "If I could do as you urge me. Falconer: if 1 could so forget what I owe my own parent*,; if I could so de ceive and betray their trust. I *hould be forever unworthy of your confidence. and you should never trust me more." And she ended her letter with the most earnest assurances of her sympathy and affection for him. her faith in her duty, and her hope in the future. This letter was also dispatched. But day* pasted, and she received no answer to it. nor heard any news of the youth. At length, one morning, she received a passionate, sorrowful, and bitterly accusative letter from Fal coner; telling her that he had disposed of all his possessions in Allegheny County, and had left the neighbor hood, and bidding her farewell forever! This letter had been placed in her the note. Mrs. Hunter stood behind him, and with her hand upon his shoul der leaned over and followed him in the perusal. When it was over, he folded and returned it to Maud, say ing kindlv: "Do not let this nutter trouble you hand* by her maid, as soon a* she was out of bed in the morning. She read it m a sort of mournful amazement, and then asked Susan when it had l-ecn brought. Her maid replied that Ijxilc Len had brought it the night pre vious. after the family had retired, and that l-en said his young master had that morning taken the stage for Bal-1 timore. In a sad bewilderment the maiden threw on her dressing-gown, and taking the letter with her, went to .the door, she rapped, and asked: "May I come in. dear mother?" ‘Yes. enter, my darling," answered the sweet voice of Mrs. Hunter. z And Maud opened the door, and pasted into the chamber. Her father, J in his dressing-gown and slippers, sat , in an easy-chair before the fire, taking ; hfe “easy." Her mother, in her grace- lul morning wrapper, had arisen to meet her. with a smile of affectionate welcome; but something in Maud’s tone of voice, and something in her look, alarmed the lady, and she hast ened forward and took her hand, ex claiming: And A bachelor who loves boys but who has no boys of his own! That is George E. Buchanan, a wealthy coal dealer of Detroit, a hard-boiled busi ness man who thinks that the best possible education a boy can have Is the education of travel. He has sent 145 boys to Alaaka from De troit and Vancouver via the Can adian Pacific “Princess" Steamers to Skagway; and now he plans to not only send a group of boys to Alaska the coming year, but be has enlarged bls program and hie former slogan. “On to Alaska with Buch anan'’ has a aide-partner, “On to Europe with Buchanan!"

Every boy who has made good his passage money to Alaska. Is eligible for the European trip—and the percentage of “make good" boys has been very high, according to Buchanan. Of all these Alaska boys, Buchanan sayj that two-thlrds have voluntarily re paid him, although he has merely put them on honor to do It when they got ready—and he forecloses no legal obligations, because there are none. Any boy. anywhere In the United States or Canada, can qualify for George E. Buchanan's trip to Alaaka. or to Europe, and can earn his third anywhere but. of course. h« should get In touch with Mr. Buch anan. in Detroit, to learn how to earn his third. AH of his boys have a wonderful time, no matter whether they go to Alaska, or to Europe and when they finish with him they have had a business and travel education worth a whole lot. “My dear child." Maud silently pressed her hand and carried it to her lips and held up Fal coner’* note to view, and then went on and handed it to her father. Daniel Hunter first drew her to hi* bo*om. and embraced her fondly, and then set her down u|>on hi* knee*, and put his arm around her waist, while he read too much, my child 1 have the will and the power to bring good out of this.

Hunter drew her daughter within her arm*, and with a troubled and foreboding heart gazed upon her face. Two crimson spots blazed upon Maud's cheeks, her dark-blue eyes were preternaturally dilated, and the purpled veins upon the snowy fore head and temples were full, distended an throbbing. "You are not well, my darling.” "Yes. sweet mother. "But you are not; your face is flush ed—your head is so hot,” she said, passing her hand over the burning forehead; “your head is so hot." “It is onlv the headache, dear mother; I am apt to have the headache when anything—any trouble — shock—what was I saying?

Our darling girl is sleeping Within her kmlv bed, While angel hand* are keeping A watch overhead. Her loving hands they folded Upon her quiet breast. And in the silent churchyard They laid her down to rest. Within the shining casket Her precious dust shall lie, Till summoned by the angels To meet the Lofd on high. But her spirit has gone to Jesus, She i* with the Saviour now; A crown of glory is resting Upon her fair young brow. Oh, it is hard to lo*c her. Our darling, from our side; The days are dark and lonely Since our dear girlie died. Within the family circle We *ee her empty chair. Her playthings scattered around u*. We mi*s her everywhere. But she has crossed the River Jordan. She is in the land of light. Where the redeemed are walking In spotless robes of white. She has gone from earth to Heaven. Our lo*s shall be Hi* gain; But our heart* arc sick with longing. To sec our girl again. But though our heart* are breaking, We know it’s for the be*t; Our Father, in hi* mercy. Ha* taken her to rest. She ha* gone from all temptation. She is free from every care. She is in the land of sunshine. There will be no sorrow there. And when life'* journey i* over And free from earthly pain. Wc. too. shall cros* the Jordan, And meet our girlie again. — From Mama. Dada. brothers Don. and Doug., and *i»lcr Joyce (in Eng land). Mm.
