The Two Kind. or se1r-pen,,,

All life is a system of self-denial.
he wicked man denies himself as
UGH as the most conscientious Chris
ian. The difference is in the kinds of
'hings toward which the self-denial is
applied. Daniel denied himself the
zine and highly seasoned meats of the
dug's court in order that he might
seep his head clear and his body strong
ind vigorous. Belshazzar, on the other
sand, denied himself clear head in Or
IT that he might have the present
easures Of wine-drinking. Daniel
'ould not get along without prayer and
|oVerent worship toward God, but he
,ouid get along without drunkenness.
F'elshazzar could not do without his
'prees, but he could do without the
experimenting. The difference in des-
iny OF the two men, the one coming
u old age in honor and nobility, and
o other going down in a drunken
;evel, was the logical outcome of the
everal paths of self-denial they had
oeen pursuing from their youth.-Dr.

SUICIDAL SUCCESS.
The Shining Aghts' Of Self De-
struction.

It may De truthfully said that the
majority Of men and women do not live
out their allotted time. It may be said
with equal truth that these people are
suicides. They destroy themselves.
They do SO in spite of warning and adj
vice, in spite of the teachings OF obser-
walton and experience. The whole sit
uation is portrayed in the illustration
IN this article. There is an Industrious
man busily saving away at the limb of
a tree on which he sits. His purpose is
to cut the limb from the trunk. But as
he sits on the outer end of the limb and
cuts on the inner side, his success will
destroy him. When he succeeds in cut
ting off the limb he will drop to the
ground and be killed or at least seri-
ously injured. Below him his wife
stands pointing out his danger. But
with masculine conceit he goes ahead
with his saving. He knows what he's
doing, he says. 1t may be objected
that this man is too grossly ignorant
to fairly illustrate the average Of hui
manity. But it is the very ignorance
of humanity which gives strength to
the parallel Men, generally, know
nothing of physiology. They are ignor-
ant of physical economics. They treat
the body as If it needed no considera-
ton or thought. They eat any kind Of
food, at any convenient time. The food

HOUSEHOLD REMINDERS.

Ceilings that have become smoked
by kerosene lamp can be washed off
with weak soda water.
Clam shells are much more conven-
lent for scraping pots and kettles than

To remove wheel grease, rub thor
oughly with clean lard, then wash with
soap and water.
Marble may be cleaned by dissolving
two large spoonfuls of chloride of soda
in pint of water. Rub this on the
stains, and If they are bad put it on
stronger and cover with wheat flour.
Let it stand awhile, then rub with linen
until thoroughly dry. Do not put this

who either does not cut down his work
to the level of his strength or bring up
his strength to the level of this work.
One of these two things he must do if
he is to avoid physical collapse. But
how can man bring his body up to the
requirements of his excessive labor?
How does the farmer bring his land up
to the requirements of the crops? He
puts back into the soil the elements
which are used up in crop making
That's what his use of phosphates
means. His land would die if he did
not put back its strength There are
two ways of doing this. He can let his
lands lie fallow for a year or two and
let Nature slowly and laboriously col
lect and replace the needed vital ele-
ments. Or he may have resort to agri-
cultural science and put into Natures
hands the vital elements already pre-
pared for her use, and go right along
sowing and reaping without letting the
land lie idle and losing his product The
farmer needs only to treat his body as
he treats his land to preserve his health
and bring his body up to the level of
the labor required of it. He must put
back into the body what he takes out
of it, what is exhausted by his work
and energy, or he must give that body
q regular rest and let it slowly recuper-
ate. But how can he put back into his
body the used up elements of strength?
1t would be strange indeed if science
could not do for flesh and blood (the
soil in which roots the flower of health)
what it does for the soil. To the solu-
