A POST OFFICE THIEF IS STILL ROBBING OUR MAIL!

We specially request that no money be sent by mail. Altho this is mentioned in every issue quite a number fail to heed it. They thus not only lose the money sent but cause themselves and us trouble and postage writing about their losses. Furthermore they trouble others who properly send Postal Orders, Drafts or Express Orders; for the mail-thief frequently by mistake takes these (which he cannot use and must destroy lest they betray him). Hence the many who do right in this matter are put to trouble even tho they suffer no financial loss. If all would observe the proper rule, the thief would be spared temptation, and he would soon cease to rifle letters addressed to us—finding no money therein.

One dear Brother sent a donation in money, which went astray. He wrote subsequently that his thought was—This is the Lord’s money and for the Lord’s cause and he will protect it. He erred in this, failing to realize that his course was a tempting of Providence: “Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.” (See Matt. 4:7.) Nor should we tempt our weak fallen fellow-creatures.
