formalities Of the law may, in some
way have shown their gratitude. But
this Samaritan as he felt the'pure life
giving blood coursing his veins, was
SO thrilled with Joy that in the abandon
of his love and gratitude he broke
through all the restraints Of formality
and asserted the higher claims Of love
over every other human experience.
All had stood the test Of obedience, but
he only that of love. The expression,
THY faith hath made thee whole"
implied that while the faith Of the
nine had healed their bodies the faith
and love of the Samaritan had healed
him, soul, and body. His first faith
had been sufficient for his healing his
grateful love showed that he had a lar
ger faith, by which he could receive
spiritual blessings and be made a new
man in Christ Jesus. Analogous TO
this we have in the church to-day a
class Of persons who have sufficient
faith to realize the blessings Of justifi-
cation, and yet through failure to exer-
else the faith they have by active
Christian service and expression of
love and gratitude to God, do not reach
up to that high and sweet spiritual ex-
perience which puts love and graft
tude above everything else. "If the
Son therefore shall make you free, we
shall be free indeed" John 8 :38.

Frills of Fashion.

Turn down linen collars and cuffs
turned back about an inch aroun the
hand are to be worn very much this
season.
The silk balayeuse is in use again,
and many Of the new summer gowns
have the narrow pinked rufle inside
the skirt.
Cashmere is much used for house
gowns of all sorts, and one of pale gray
is prettily trimmed with narrow flow
cred ribbon, pink on a gray ground,
set between rows of silver braid, q
wide collar being made entirely Of
alternate rows of ribbon and braid.
The latest novelty in capes is made
Of chine glace, with a black velvet
scroll pattern all over it. Full panels
of Russian net edged with ostrich fea-
Their trimming hang over the shoulders,
and black and white tulle, with
ostrich tips, form the ruche at the
neck.
1t is rumored that the latest skirts
for wash materials, grenadines, thin
silks, and net are made of straight
breadths, shirred down five or six
inches from the waist and plainly
hemmed at the bottom, where they
hang loose from the gored lining I'M
derneath.
Ribbons of all widths, Powered,
striped and plain, are a conspicuous
feature of trimming on thin gowns
this season. Bands of ribbon extend
over the shoulders and down either
side of the front of the skirt with bows
at the end. Wider ribbons are used tc
face revers and form pointed epaulets
over the sleeves. Bows of ribbon are
on the shoulders, at the waist, and
neck, and fasten down the centre OF
the shirt sleeve puffs whit great
effect. Especially new, too, are the
wide gauze sash ribbons, satin edged
and patterned all over with soft flow
| ers.
Neck ruches are now substituted fol
high collars, and the variety displayed
in the shops is endless. Some are
made of alternate double strips o.

the absolute necessity-of n genuine
invigorator at this spring season has
impressed itself on the attention Of a
thinking people.
In the famous laboratory of Dart
mouth Medical School, Prof. Edward
Z. Phelps, NJ. d., LII. D., discovered
the formula of Paine's Celery Com
pound, a remedy that has become the
standard nerve restorer, blood purifier,
and strengthener from one end of the
country to the other, a preparation
that stands unrivalled as the medicine
that makes people well.
1t is a fact much commented upon
that men and women of national repu-
tation and prominence, like Gen.
Beals, State Treas. Colvin, of New
York, Mr.. Carlisle's private secretary,
Mayor McShane of Montreal, Rev. FIR.
Ouellet, Com. Howe, ex-Minister to
Austria John M. Francis, and a host
Of others who are careful. what they
employ when sick, and have the am
plest opportunities for finding out what
is best, have of their own accord sent
letters describing fully their permanent
recovery from rheumatism, heart
weakness, sleepnessness, debility, kid
ney troubles, and diseases of the stom-
ach and liver. In all these cases
Paine's Celery Compound was the one
remedy that was able to completely
and permanently bring back health,
make poor blood again rich and pure,
and regulate and build up the nervous
| system when weakened and deranged.

Missouri Court Houses.

From the Republic.
Not the least of the many ~satisfac-
tory evidences of M%issouri's prosper
ity its the remarkable number OF
courthouses built during the past five
years. The official figures obtained
from the county clerks in the various
counties of the state show that since
1890 nineteen new c~ourthouses have
been or are being erected at an aggre-
gate cost of 81, 1885, 1877.
IN numerous counties propositions
will soon be submitted for the erection
of new courthouses, and il the estima-
ted cost of these buildings were in
cluded in the total the aggregate
would be Sc. 900. GOO.
The average cost of the new court
houses, according to the returns from
the county clerks, is $40, 600, showing
that the buildings are of the most sub
stantial character.
From whatever material standpoint
Missouri is considered the conditions
in the state are highly satisfactory.
The improvements being made and in
contemplation would only be under
taken by a people whose prosperity
was present as well as prospective.
In the present condition there is
nothing which could be mistaken for
O boom. There is nothing artificial.
There is no imitation of values or dan
ger of a collapse.
The taxpayers of Missouri counties
have either voted bonds or levied d.
| rect taxes to build courthouses because
they were abundantly able to meet the
expense. In one notable instance a
courthouse was erected by popular sub
scription and presented to the county.
The architecture of the new court
houses is superb. The buildings are
being erected to stand for all time and
are calculated to impress the visitor
with the substantial character Of the
| state.
A prosperous county a make no
better investment than the erection of
O handsome courthouse. Immigrants
passing through the state are i'm
pressed by the public buildings. Mis-
souri's handsome school buildings and
new courthouses eloquently tell thu
story of its prosperity.

liam A. Casey and Miss Alice Palmer
of the rural district of the county
came to Lawrenceburg last night. To.
day they proceeded to Jacksonville,
and after encountering many vicisi-
tudes succeeded in getting married.
The bride wore a green polka dot
calico. The groom was attired in
boots, sky blue trousers with a black
satin stripe down the seam, jeans coat
and vest, with a huge bow of pink rib
bon pinned to the lapel. A large white
felt hat completed the grotesque cos
tune. Their appearance on the street
with interlocked arms was the occa-
sion of much mirth to citizens.

FAITH.

ThllIl.
Golden text :-"Increase our faith.
Luke 17.5.
The prayer And the apostles said
Lord increase Il faith" This is the
only place in the New Testament
where the apostles" are represented
as asking anything Of the Saviour.
They are generally termed the dis
ciples'' or the twelve" They evil
IDENTIFY had some faith, perhaps nor
than any others. And these are the
very ones that realize most the need of
more faith. This is the law of spiritual
thrift. ITO him that hath shall be
given" The occasion of this prayer
is shown in the preceding verses of the
chapter. The Master had been speak
ing to them of offenses, and of the woes
that should come upon those through
whom offenscs should come, He then
taught them the duty of forgiveness ;
ever seven times in a day, if a brother
%repented, were they to forgive. Per-
haps no duty is more difficult for poor
human nature than that Of forgiveness
of those who repeatedly injure us. In
subsequent verses of this chapter 20-22,
1921, other facts are suggested that
would call for an increase of faith.
They were working for a Kingdom
that did not "come with observation, -
but was an invisible, spiritual King
dom, the establishment of which
should cost them many hardships and
sacrifices. We should indicate to M
classes here the different ways in
which this prayer could be answered,
and some of the ways in which we can
help answer our w prayer for The in
crease of faith. In one sense faith is
the gift of God and in another sense it
is our ewn act. Jesus increases faith
by His own personal power and that of
the Holy Spirit. Faith is increased by
exercise, by using what we have to
gain more by being subjected to trial
and by the promises Of God.
The power of faith And the Lord
said, If we had faith as a grain of mus
tard seed we might say unto this syca-
more tree, Be thou plucked up by the
roots, and be thou planted in the sea /;
and it should obey you" Matthew
and Mark express the same view of the
power Of faith under the figure of the
mustard seed and a mountain to be re-
moved and cast into the sea. What do
these strong figures teach3 1t is GER
tainly remarkable language coming de-
rectly, from the lips Of the Saviour. 1t
is not the teaching Of any mortal man /,
but the Lord said" All how little
have we needed this teaching of our
Lord in regard to the power of faith
While the language is strongly fgura-
tive it nevertheless teaches the real
truth in regard to the power of faith.
II puts mind above matter. Divested
Of all theological color and prejudice it
plainly teaches that the strongest force
in this universe is not physical but
spiritual. And how has the progress
of the world demonstrated the super
iority Of mind over matter, in uproot-
ing evil and removing mountains Of
