the surest way to save yourself from
his evil influence is to try to save
him."
Jesus never avoided contact with the
sinful. 1t was pharisaic reproach
against him that he associated with
them. He was not continually stand
ing guard over His purity, but was
always invading the lives of others
with His holiness. "His life was like
an open stream that keeps the sea
from flowing up into it by the eager
force with which it flows down
into the sea. He labored to
make the world pure that He
never even had to try to be pure Him
self. He did not spend His life in try
ing not to do wrong. He was too tull
of earnest love and longing to do right
to do His Fathers will" And His
life was spotless. We never think of
questioning His purity because He ate
with publicans and sinners, admitted
Magdalene to His presence and said
to a wretched woman at His feet:
Neither do l condemn thee; sin no
more" Il am sure" says Phillips
Brooks, ''that as we grow better and
better Christians we shall come SO
close up to all the worlds w:ckedness
that it can not strike US. We shall be
saved from it by our pity for it. We
shall be farther from its contagion the
closer we come to its needs. This is
the true positiveness of the Christian s
purity-the real safety of the loving
and laboring life. -
Christ makes men pure by regener-
ating their souls and filling them with
His love. 1t is the expulsive power of
the affection of supreme love for God
and man that cleanses the soul from
all unrighteousness. 1t is the constant
activity of this love in every good word
and work among wicked men in try
ing to make them pure that keeps the
Divinely cleansed soul pure and I'M
spotted from the world.-M W. Chris

CORN RUST.
How the Black Spores Can Be EnecruAlIy
Destroyed.

How the Black Spores Can BE Efecrually
Destroyed.
Corn rust, fungus similar to wheat
rust. which is common on the leaves OF
corn, ordinarily does not appear to
grow in large enough quantities to do
much damage. 1t is usually seen on
the mature leaves, late, in the season.
| have observed it several times ON the
lower leaves of partly grown corn,
whose vigor was plainly impaired by it.
The fungus is similar to wheat rust. Yet
different enough to be recognized by the
experienced microscopic as q distinct
kind. 1t has its two kind of spores,
growing from the same fungus tissue.
..red rust and '.black rust" Both oc-
cur in rounded or elongated clusters Of
small size, bursting through the epider-
mis- on both sides of the leaf The .'red
rust comes earlier and is lighter in
color. Every cluster contains hundreds
of spores, each Of which is nearly globu-
lar. yellowish, borne on slender stalk,
from which it easily falls 1t can not
live over winter and mast germinate
soon after its formation e at all The
..black rust comes later, forms dark
clusters or patches. Each spore is double
or two-celled. and borne. on a perma-
nent stalk. 1t will NOT terminate until
next spring. Its office is to carry the
fungus over the winter. Where the
first leaves are found diseased early in
the season. AL the leaves are likely to
become infected later, and if this latter
occurs. the young leaves viii probably
suffer the next spring.
Apply the following remedy: Assoor
as the corn is gathered. burn all thu
stalks and leaves not needed for fodder
and thus destroy the black spores. Ok
not plant corn on tho same land mex
