thesis IT is stated that these roots are
those of the knob celery that comes three
roots TO the bunch for S or 10 cents. Add
to the chopped roots one cup of rice and
cover with three cupfuls Of water. Sim
mer for twenty-five minutes, or until both
rice and celery are tender. Scald three
cupfuls of rich milk. Press the rice and
celery through a sieve. carefully saving
the water drained from them, and add
rice, celery, and water to the scalded
milk. Let it cook i'm the farina boiler for
fifteen minutes, season, and serve. If in
cooking, the soup becomes too thick, ada
a little white stock or chicken broth to
it. 1t improves the soup TO cook the rice
and celery in broth instead of water, ana
slice of onion may be added while COOK
ing. The rice usually makes the soup
quite thick enough. Should this not be
the case, rub together a tablespoonful OF
butter with two of -four. and add to the
scalded milk. Stir until smooth.

College building on II street, Friday, was

We're clinics in the upper rooms OF the
Dulldlng where also a great array OF
dental instruments and preparations were
exhibited for the benefit of those interested
in the progress of the manufacture Of
dental tools, preparations, and machinery.
One of the new things in the art or
dentistry and one which attracted per-
hap5 the most attention was the Wheeler
fractional volt selector, which optunds
sensitive dentine so that the operator can
readily extract without causing pain TO
the patient. This volt selector is the very
newest improvement in dental machinery
and can be used from a battery or placed
on the Edison direct circuit.
A number of people were present who
were operated on, the various methods in
modern dentistry being used. One young
man who had suffered for long time with
defective tooth. one which dentists were
unable to touch with an instrument, had
the offending member removed after the
tooth had been treated to a mild current
OF electricity.
There were a number of women present
who also had their teeth extracted.
The afternoon session was taken up
wholly with the reading Of papers nd re-
ports. DIR. L. c. F. Hugo presented an in
teresting report ON Pathology aud the
rapeutics,'' which was discussed at con-
siderable length.

ON THE STORY OF GIDEON
Y. M. G. A. Secretary Multer
Speaks at Foundry Church.
A Large Audience Listened to the
Speaker on HIS First Appearance
There.

The story of Gideon was very interest
Church by Mr.. NJ. N. Multer, general sec
retary of the District Y. M C. A
1t was Mr.. Multer's first appe arance
atFouRdry as speaker, aud he was greeted
by large audience, which thoroughly ap-
preclated the excellence of his discourse
For the Scripture lesson Mr. Multer read
the sixth chapter OF Judges, taking as his
text the sixteenth verse: And the Lord
said unto him, Surely will be with thee
and thou Will smte the Medians as one
man" The book of Judges, the speaker
said, was the saddest of all the Scriptures,
because In the beginning 1T tells of the
trials and bardships or Israel in ne W
land But with all this, there is a peace
of mind, for when Israel prays to the Lord
his prayer Is heard and answered.
The story of eide on, Mr. Multer said,
was nothing more than the story of
natou's disobedence to God, and in this
respect the history of Israel is very similar
to our own, when we remember how often
we have been besieged and always de-
Ilvered by God. He then told of the
appea rance to Gideoa OF the angel from
God and of bis comman nds TO go out against
the Medians Having suffered so much
from the enemy, the Israelites feared that
the Lord had forgotten them, and Gideon
EXPRESSED this fear to the angel.
He was reassured, however, by the angel
who told him the Lord never forsook
anyone and would be with him in the
battle. This was q hard sermon for the
Israelites, who, like many OF US, forget only
too soon the promises made to us by God
Many of US, said Mr.. Multer, start out
with the most sincere intentions, believing
on the power OF the word of God, TO fight
His battles through life and serve Christ
to the end.
But, like Gideon, many Of Us retain some
weakness switch causes Us to wholly lose
faith in the word and which, IL not
strengthened in time, finally gains control
OF our soul. In speaking further OF the
visit OF the angel to Gideon lie said the
visits OF angels always wrought great
changes in the lives OF those To whom
they appeared.
In conclusion Mr.. Multer graphically
described the events Immediately preceding
the great battle between the Israelites
and the Medians. H. told of the summoning
of the hosts OF Gideon, and how $4,000
came TO do battle, and how many OF the
weak in faith, when the hour arrived, re-
fused TO go, and how finally, with only
800, Gideon marched against the enemy
and vanquished them.
The story OF the battle, as told in detail,
was intensely interesting, and was listened
to with closest attention.
