Q large congregation dispersed.

ReY. A. Mch6OWn, ID, OF OneS tnuU StItot
church preached yesterday morning to the pro-
bationers. a number of whom are to be admit
ted to the church next Sabbath, ON the Duties
and Privileges of Church Membership. from
Ephesians, 2:19, "now ye are no more strang-
ers, ETC."
After congratulating them on the change OF
relation that had come to them through their
faith in Christ he said that it was the duty of
all Christians, members of the invisible church
to belong to the visible church. seeking that
branch of it with which they were most in SYM
pathy, and which in their Judgment had most
of the truth and power OF God. Refusal to JOIN
the church argued disposition to shirk re-
sponsibility, and was virtual denial Of Christ.
The attempt to lead Christian life without
the stimulus, the sense of responsibility, the
sympathy and fellowship, which come from
public profession of religion, was almost sure
to prove abortive.
1t was no less a privilege than duty. No
man ought TO join who did not feel it to be a
privilege. II there was humiliating sight on
earth it was that of a minister coaxng people
to join the church. He should encourage the
timid, make the way smooth as possible to the
tremblingsfeet of penitence, but should take
care how he cheapened the privileges of the
house of God to the superciious spirit The
officers of the church should guard its purity,
and allow none to become or remain members
who did not live consistent lives, and their
church membership would be badge of dis
tinction, certificate of character.
It was the duty of church members to live
holy lives-to sustain the church and the cause
of Christ generally-and to remain members as
long as they lived.
The privileges of church membership enum-
Grated were those of high and honorable rela-
tionship-Chrstian fellowship-and Christian
labor. These points were elaborated at length.
Christian labor he chose to place under the !,
head Of privilege rat than OF duty as all

HOME. FARM AND GARDEN.

TO clean willow furniture use salt
and water, and apply with coarse
brush, and dry thoroughly. Chicago
Netos.
To remove tar rub thoroughly with
clean lard, and then wash with soap
and warm water. This may be applied
to either the hands or clothing.
--Sunnower seed given to horse at
each morning and night feed will keep
him in good spirits and give his hair a
sleek appearance. -Ndtionat Farmer.
The figs produced on the trees the
first few years after they commence to
bear are OF inferior quality and said to
create the impression that the varieties
arc poor. After the trees become older,
however, the quality improves.
The Michigan Farmer recommends
cutting away the old tops from the as
paragus beds; clean of all weeds, and
cover the grounds with liberal mulch
of good manure. Early in spring fork
over the surface, allowing the short,
rotten portion of the manure to remain,
but raking off the coarse, strawy ma
terial.
Gardeners at Potsdam, N. Y, raise
little violet trees by preventing the
plants from blooming for several years,
and having them grow upright by re-
moving the lower leaves and shoots
These little trees, about fourteen cent?
meters high, are very pretty. Some of
the gardeners winter as many as 10000
pots of violets.
Corn bread can be made without
eggs, though two eggs added to the
quantity of batter mentioned here i'm
proves it very much: Two cups of
corn meal, sifted; one cup of flour; two
cups of sweet milk; two tablespoonfuls
of melted butter; one heaping one of
sugar; two tablespoonfuls of baking
powder.-M y Post.
To clean steel forks fill small keg
with fine sand or brick-dust, press It
down well, and let it be always kept
moist Run the prongs of the fork in
this once or twice. and all the stains will
disappear. Brush the dust from them
MS soon rs they are taken out of the
sand, and polish between the prongs
with slender stick covered with
leather. Chicago Journal.
The Secretary of the Michigan Hor-
ticultural Society gives in substance
the following report of the fruit this
year in that great fruit State: Seventy
five reports place the apple crop less
than three-fourths the average; fifty
less than one-half, and thirty-four less
than fourth. Pears are nearly full
yield; peaches about half crop;
grapes abundant; plums good aver
age.
1t is not good plan to have the
white lawn and cambria dresses "done
up" as the phrase is, to lay away for
the winter, for the expectation that they
will look fresh and be ready for imme-
diate wear in the spring will be d sap
pointed. OF course they should not be
put away dirty, but the starching and
ironing may well be left till spring; only
common calicoes should be starched
and ironed before packing away.-M Y.
