Why Christ is Called the Lamb,

The institution of the Passover and
other sacrifices among the Jews will
answer the question. "Christ our
Passover is sacrificed for u.s." Il Cor.
W.
A lamb is an innocent animal ;
Christ is immaculate in character.
The paschal lamb was free from spot
and Flemish Christ from sin.
The lamb is defenseless; Christ
made no resistance to his enemies.
The lamb is dumb before her shear
res; Christ opened not his mouth to
save his life.
The lamb shed its blood in the sacri-
flee Christ shed his on the cross.
The lambs blood was sprinkled on
the doorposts Christ's must be appli-
ed to the heart, hence called 1.-The
blood of sprinkling." Heb. xii. 24.)
The lambs blood saved every family
where it was sprinkled from the de-
stroying angel; Chirst's blood saves
from sin every soul who will accept
it.
The offerer confessed his iniquities
over the head of the lamb, and thus
typically transferred his sin and guilt
to the victim 80 God laid upon his
Son the iniquity of US all.
The lamb was then slain; so Christ
died for the sin of the world.
The difference between the sacrifi.
cial lamb and Christ az the lamb OF
God is that the death of the one took
away sin ceremonially, without really
touching and cleansing the heart,
while the death of the other really
and absolutely cleanses from sin all
who will accept it. Further, the ami.
NAL sacrifice was repeated daily, thus
showing that it could not take sin
"but this Man, after he had offered
one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down
on the right hand of God, fol
by one offering he hath perfected for
ever them that are sanctitied." (Heb'
x. IL.

Purity.

"Be pure, and thou must be brave"
Wide and half concealed immortality
lies just beneath the surface of society.
"a precipice lies before every boy and
girl when they emerge from the shelter
Of their home; but .ure, safe path
leads around it. We must gently
warn them of the one we must lead
them to the other.
Parents, your silence is dangerous !;
set up a habit of confidence with your
chilrdren that you may the more easily
warn them of so vital danger. Do
not be shocked or angry when your
boy utters some half ignorant remark
or question. Here is your opportunity
for instruction! Let their first knowl-
edge of this evil come from a pure
source.
Speak of the dignity of the body,
which may become temple of the
Holy Ghost. Tell of the wonderful
relationship between mother and child
in the absolute union of their two lives
in one body. Teach the profanity of
light and vain thoughts about love
and marriage. Teach your boys to
honor womanhood, the degradation of
which is sin, and will surely bring
punishment.

It was at q Republican church. q
good many years ago, at Saturday
meeting, q motion was offered by 8
brother who was himself rarely ever
on time for preaching, that II a. m. be
the hour for service on Saturday, and
that our pastor be requested to begin
service at that hour, regardless of the
number Of persons present. This mo-
ton was unanimously adopted. I had
shortly before taken charge Of the
church, and as the people were very
slow usually about coming 20 meeting,
I rejoiced at the adoption of the reso-
luton. At the next time of meeting,
I was at the church fifteen minutes be-
fore eleven O'Clock; but no one else
had come. Five minutes before
eleven, I saw old Bro. Corley, the
sexton, coming. He opened the doors
and windows. At eleven promptly,
he and 1 began service. I gave out a
hymn but neither of us could sing ;
so proceeded to read the Scriptures.
then had prayer and the reading of
another hymn, but no singing. I
took my text-one upon which I had
been hard at work during the week
ITO you who believe he is precious" "
I preached to Bro. Corley as earnestly
as possible, and he listened closely.
When I was about half through my
sermon, two other brethren came in
and took seats almost halfway back to
the rear end of the church. I finish
ed, and pronounced the benediction,
and went out of the house; but did
not leave Immediately. After awhile,
others began to come in, and then the
author of the motion appeared, and at
length a goodly number had arrived.
Still we fingered around the door.
Presently the brethren began to look
at and snap their watches. Some one
asked if it was not time to begin SER
vice. The answer was made that
SERVED for the day was over, and then
they remembered the resolution of the
last conference. They insisted that ]
preach again: but I told them
would not preach again until next
day. At the 0ext meeting, when ]
arrived at the church, fifteen minutes
before time, large crowd awaited me-

HOW TO TREAT.A MAN.
Notes by u Horse, Translated by
Harry Benson.

Notes by h Horse, Translated by
Harry Benson.
When q man drops from sheer eA.
haustion or illness, promptly seize an
end board or cart stake and pound
him on the head and on the ribs. il
this does not recuperate him, kick
him violently in the belly. This
treatment will restore him, if per.
sistently administered.
and feels that it will seriously strain
him to proceed, kick off fence board
and knock him down-and hammer
HIM thoroughly with the board
This will give renewed energy, and
he will make no more fuss. But dc
not on any account reduce his load
That would look too much like com.
mon sense, or humanity, and he will
he likely to balk again when over
loaded.
If a man refuses to drink when you
offer him water, don't give him any
water for two days. That will "teach
him" to be thirsty at any time you
find it convenient to attend to him.
1t is good plan to apply the whip
frequently on a mann who is at work
No matter if be is doing his best, hi
him now and then on general prin
ciplesn and to prevent him taking
any comfort. Ifhis load is not heavy
oblige him to 60 enough faster tc
make up for if. Work him hard
enough to bring down the average
life Of man one half, as is done with
horses. If no whip is handy, use
club.
Tie your mans mead back in an
unnatural position, with his eyes uI
towards the sun. This will give him
a Zine appearance and prevent stumb
ling" Of course be will not be able
to do as much word in this fix, but
it makes him wretched, 80 it is all
right.
In winter remove his clothing tc
"prevent him taking cold" He will
also dry quicker, when you overwork
him. You must hang q blanket on
his back-but leave his neck and
limbs exposed-when he Is not al
work. Men thus treated are "much
healthier" than when allowed winter
clothing.
If not perfectly convenient to feed
a man, who is working for you, al
noon, let him 60 without, and, by
active use of the whip, secure as much
work as the food would have secured
Of course it wears out his vitality
and 'distresses him but that is nc
matter.
Put tight shoes on your man and
keep them there until he is very lame
with corns. To change his shoes often
costs money, not much, but some, and
lameness and misery are of no account
if you can save q dollars worth OF
shoes in year.
When you hire q man do not be
hampered by any humane notions.
Get all you can out of him. True
nobility consists in getting money,
not decency, or kindness, or what
some noodles term "character." Get
money all blood stained. These are
correct principles, am sure. for I
learned them when q colt from my
master who treated all his horses on
this plan and don't he know what's
what?

Setting Out Plants.

An important point in setting out
plants is to firm the soil we'll about the
plant after setting it in the ground.
This can be best done with the feet,
tramping the soil gently Immediately
about the base and against the stalk OF
the plant. This serves to keep the
plant in position, 80 that it will not be
whipped about by the wind, and pre-.
vents the air from getting at the roots
AS the plants are knocked out of the
pots dip the ball of soil surrounding
the roots in water, and pour little
into the hole into which the plant is
to be set. Fill the soil in about the
plant, and compress it as suggested
above, and if no water is applied for =
week the plant will not suffer. BY
the former method only the surface o
the soil is wet, and the roots of the
plant remain dry.
