LYDIA MILLER GILMORE.

Lydia Miller Gilmore was born May 5, 1904,
died Feb. 8, 1888. The subject of this notice
was born in Columbus, Shenango county, NY.
AT the age of twenty five years she married
James T. Gilmore. The marriage was divine,
the happy couple living to near their golden
wedding. The husband died July ~, 1877.
Their children numbered fve and only one
remains. Her friends and kindred will miss
her and weep, but treason and religion better
taught congratulate the dead and crown the
tomb with wreaths of triumph" She read her
Bible as if sacred parchment. on which the
ink was not dry, from the pen of the Almighty
Universalism just fitted her nature. Though
one of q different denomination might find
fault with her church they could not with
Mother Gilmore. They found in her the hard
est thing to answer they encountered. They
thought her better than her church. She felt
she was least of ali the saints. Rev. Chas. L.
Shipman officiated at the funeral. and we
learned from him that it was the sixth funeral
in the very same room in which he had spoken
words of comfort to this family. The only
daughter and other relatives have the sympa-
thy of the entire community. C.R.s.

There are very few men who do not pride
themselves on always having the correct time;
and wonderful and delicate mechanisms are
devised to enable them to do so. But the
more delicate a chronometer is made, the
more subject it becomes to arrangement, and
unless it be kept always perfectly clean, it
soon loses its usefulness. What wonder,
then, that the human machine-so much
more delicate and intricate than any work
of Man-should require to be kept thorough
ly cleansed. The liver is the handspring of
this complex struc .ure, and on the impuri-
ties left in the blood by disordered liver,
depend most of the ills that flesh is heir to.
Even consumption (which is lung scrofula),
is traceable to the imperfect action of this
organ. Kidney diseases, Skin diseases, sick
headache, heart disease, dropsy, and long
catalogue of grave maIadies have their ORR
gin in torpid, or sluggish liver. DIR. rPierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, by establishing
a healthy, normal action of the liver, acts as
a cure and preventive of these diseases.

THE SON REJECTED.
Matthew xxi. 1916; Mark xii. LIP; Luke Xxx.
3d.

9-19.l
And he began to speak unto the people in
parallels. "Hear another parable: There
was a man that was a householder, who
planted vineyard, and set a hedge about it,
and digged pit for the winepress in it, and
built tower, and let it out to husbandmen,
and went into another country for long
time. And when the season of the fruits
drew near, he sent unto the husbardman a
servant, that he might receive from the hus.
bandman the fruits of the vineyard. And
the husbandman took him and beat b m, and
sent him away empty. And again, he sent
unto them yet another servant; and him also
they beat and wounded in the head, and ham
died shamefully, and sent away empty. And
he sent yet third; and him also they wound
ed and cast him forth. And he sent another,
and him they killed; and many others; beat
ing some and killing some. Again, he sent
other servants, more than the first; and they
did unto them in like manner. And the lord
of the vineyard had yet one, beloved SON;
and he said, What shall dor will send my
beloved son; it may be they will reverence
my son. He sent him last unto them. But
when these husbandmen saw the son they
reasoned one with another, among them
selves, saying, This is the heir; come let US
kill him, and take his inheritance that it may
be ours And they took him and cast him
forth out of the vineyard and killed him.
When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall
come, what will he do with those husband
men?., They say unto him, I" He will come
and miserably destroy those miserable hus-
bandmen, and will give the vineyard unto
Others that will render him the fruits in their
seasons" And when they heard it they said,
"GoD forbid" But Jesus looked upon them
and said, "What then is this that is written,
Did We never read in the Scriptures, and have
We not read even this Scripture:
"The stone that the builders rejected,
The same was made the head of the corner;
This was from the LORD,
And it is marvellous in our eyes?"
Therefore 1 say unto you, the kingdom
of COP shall be taken away from you, and
shall be given to a nation bringing forth the
fruits thereof. Every one that falleth on
this stone shall be broken to pieces, but on
whomsoever it shall fall it will scatter him
as dust"
And when the scribes and the chief priests
and the Pharisees heard his parallels they
sought to lay hands on him in that very hour;
and they feared the multitudes because they
took him for prophet; for they perceived
that he spake this parable against them; and
they left him and went away.

THE RICH YOUNG RULER.

Matthew xix. 1926 Mark K. 1927 Luke
xviii. 1921
And as he was going forth into the way,
behold, there ran one, certain ruler, to him,
and kneeled to him, and asked him, saying,
"Good Master, what good thing shall do
that may inherit eternal life ?" And JE-
sUs said unto him, "Why callest thou me
good none is good, save one, eUen GoD
but if thou wouldst enter life, keep the COM
mandments," He saith unto him, (Which ?"
And JESUS said, "Thou knowest the COM
mandments DO not KILL do not commit
adultery DO not steal,' DO not bear false
Witness DO not defraud,' Honor thy fether
and thy mother, and Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as myself. Z" The young man saith
unto him, master, all these things have
observed from my youth up. What lack l
yet 2" And when JESUS heard it, looking
upon him he loved him, and said unto him,
"One thing thou lackest yet. If thou
wouldst be perfect, go, sell whatsoever thou
hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt
have treasure in heaven and come follow
me-" But when the young man heard these
things, his eountenance fell at the saying,
and he went away exceeding sorrowful for
he was one that had great possessions, being
very rich.

A LESSON ON FORGIVENESS.
Matthew xviii. 21.35. I


"Then came Peter and said unto him
sIord, how, oft shall my brother sin against
me, ana forgive him until seven times p"
JESUS saith unto him, 81 say unto thee, Un-
til seven times until seventy times seven.
Therefore is the kingdom of heaven iikened
unto certain king, who would make a
reckoning with his servants. And when he
had begun to reckon, one was brought unto
him who owed him ten thousand talents.
But forasmuch as he mad not ,oheretoith to
pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and
his wife and children, and all that he had,
and payment to be made. The servant
therefore fell down and worshiped him,
saying Lord, have patience with me, and l
will pay thee ALL And the lord of that servant,
being moved with compassion, released him.
and forgave him the debt. But that SER
want went out and found one of his fellow
servants, who owed him hundred shill-
ings and he laid hold on him, and took him
by the throat, saying, PAY what thou owest.'
So his fellow-servant fell down and besought
him, saying, Have patience with me and
will pay thee.' And he would not t: but went
and cast him into prison, till he should pay
that which was due. So when his fellow
servants saw what was done, they were ex-
ceeding sorry, and came and told unto their
lord all that was done. Then his lord called
him unto him and saith to him, Thou wick
ed servant, I forgave thee all that debt, be-
cause. thou besoughtest me; shouldest not
thou also have had mercy on thy fellow-ser-
want aven ps + had marcy On thee p And hia
lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tor
mentors, till he should pay all that was due.
So shall also myheavenly Father do unto you,
if ye forgive not every one his brother from
your hearts,"

And JESUS seeing him looked around about,
and saith unto his disciples, "Verily say
unto you, 1t is hard for rich man to enter
into the kingdom of heaven. How hardly
shall they that have riches enter into the
kingdom of GoDl" And the disciples were
amazed at his words. But JESUS answereth
again, and sayeth unto him, "Children. how
hard is it for them that trust in riches to en-
ter into the kingdom of GoD And again
say unto you, 1t is easier for camel to go
through a needles eye than for rich man
to enter into the kingdom of GOD" And
when the disciples heard it, they we're as
tonished exceedingly, saying unto him,
"Then who can be saved ?" And JESUS
looking upon them said to them. "With
men it is impossible, but not with COP for
all things are possible with GOD"

OHRISTS LAST JOURNEY TO JERU-
SALEM.

Matthew Xxx. 1929; Mark K. 32.46; Luke
xviii. 81. 81.
And they were in the wsy, going up to Je-
rusalem and JESUS was going before them :
and they were amazed and they that fol
lowed we're afraid. And he took unto him
again the twelve disciples apart, and in the
way he began to tell them the things that
were to happen unto him, saying unto them,
"Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and all the
things that are written through the prophets
shall be accomplished unto the Son of man.
He shall be delivered unto the chief priests
and scribes and they shall condemn him to
death, and shall deliver him unto the Cen
tiles: and they shall mock him, and shame
fully entreat him, and shall spit upon him,
and they shall scourge him, and shall kill
him and after three days he shall rise
again." And they understood none of these
things and this saying was hid from them,
and they perceived not the things that were
said.
Then came near unto him the mother of
the sons of Zebedee, with her sons, James and
John, worshiping him, and asking GER
tain thing of him, and saying unto him,
"Master, we would that thou shouldest do
for us whatsoever we shall ask of thee"
And ne said unto them, "What would ye that
I should do for you ?' And they said unto
him, "Grant unto us that we may sit, one on
thy right hand, and one on thy left hand, in
thy glory, in thy kingdom" But JESUS ans
swered and said unto them, aye know not
what We ask. Are ye able to drink the cup
that am about to drink or to be baptized
And they say unto him, "We are able. !"
And JESUS said unto them, "The cup indeed
that drink ye shall drink : and with the bap-
tism that am baptized withal shall ye be
baptized but to sit on my right hand. or on
my left hand is not mine to give; but 1t is
my Father" And when the ten heard it,
they began to be moved with indignation
concerning the two brethren, James and
John. And JESUS called them unto him, and
saith unto them, eye know that they who are
accounted to rule over the Gentiles lord
over them, and their great ones exercise au-
thority over them. Not so shall it be among
you but whatsoever would be great among
you, shall be your minister; and whosoever
would be first among you, shall be servant
of all. For even as the Son of man also
came not to be ministered unto, but to min
lister, and to give his life ransom for many"
And they came to Jericho and as he went
out from Jericho with his disciples; great
multitude followed him.
