INTERESTING M. E. SERVICES.
Rev. C. e. Locke Tells of the Coming of
the Master.

the Master.
Very interesting services were held at the
Smith6eld Street NJ. E. Church last night
by Rev. Charles Z. Locke. The congrega-
ton was large, completely exhausting the
seating capacity of the building, and the
reverend gentleman was listened to with
marked attention. His text was chosen
from John xi., %: ''The Master is here ald
calleth for thee"
The central thought of the sermon was
drawn from the wonderful privatIons and
trials Christ experienced in reaching man
kind. He said that it required 4,004 years
TO prepare the way. He would have come
at the fall of Adam had the world been pre-
pared for Him, or at any time for centuries
thereafter, but the world was not
prepared. When it was necessary
to lay aside the crown and robe
and scepter Christ dared to do it. in the
face of persecution, scorn and hatred. To-
day Christ stood upon the boundary line of
every human heart, and near enough for
His call to be heard. Every soul had
probably heard it and those who turned
away from Him could not say the oppor-
tunities of redemption from sin had not
been freely offered.
Rev. Locke held services at the wilkins
burg NJ. E. Church yesterday morning.

A Poor Sufferer.

OF course It'll notfor us to give an opinion

matism. etc. We understand that the baths
are open night and day, and that Tuesdays

TOO MUCH WRONG THINKING
said to be One of the Growing Evils of the
World.

Rev. DR.. Sutherland, OF the Second Pres
byterian Church, preached last evening on
the theme, "Perils that thre lten men in
their thinking and acting" His text was:
Beware lest We also being led away with
the error OF the wicked fall from your own
sleadfastness. The pastor took the view
that there is great danger in the philo-
sophical thinking ofthe present dav. because
the thinking is largely in anti-Christian
channels and by minds hostile to truth.
The pastor says that trouble is in the fact
that the masses OF society do not 90 to the
original sources for their information, but
axe it second hand and adulterated.

Why Eggs Spoil.

In reply to the query, why DO eggs
spoil?' American Cultivator says:
"Whenever fertilized egg is raised
to a temperature of 81 dogs. the hatch
ing process begins, and when tempera-
ture falls much below this point the
process ceases. These conditions are
found in the warm days and cool nights
Of summer. During the long, hot day
the Matching process is at work; during
the short, cool night it ceases. After
three or four alterations Of this kind
the embryo chick dies and the rotting
process begins Now it is evident that
if the eggs were not fertilized the hatch
ing would not begin. Neither would
the rotting, and hence there would be
an absence of rotten eggs. The remedy
therefore is to prevent fertilization of
the eggs, and this can be done by the de-
struction Of ROSTERS. Every rooster not
intended especially for breeding should
be killed OF sold to the huckster as soon
as big enough to eat. Not over one good
rooster should be kept on any farm, and
that one cooped and mated with not to ex
coed ten hens, and the eggs from those
hens should be kept or sold expressly for
Matching The other hens should be
kept especially for eggs for market or
table use, and nor rooster should eve be
allowed among them"
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1890-11-12
