The Company registered the cheques under the trade. name of 'AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES' the World "Travellers being spalled with one "L" The advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system."

INWARD has not changed in his relation to God. He is still God's creature. God does not change, and hence the relation between man and God is now what it was at Creation's dawn. No development of science can alter that except in so far as to bring more clearly before the eyes of man, as the centuries roll by, the wonderful power of God.
Religion has nothing to fear from science and the religion of to-day will be enhanced, not weakened by the science of to- morrow.
