NJ Not star,ve. a, Your Soul.

10 Jesus, knowing the nature both Of
God and Of. .nnn, it seemed preposterous
his GodWartt side that houses and lands,
stocks and bonds could fill the cup OF
his peace and happiness; 50 that, God
was. not to be thought Of or reckoned1
with. Jesus could only apply the word
"fool" to such man who, ignoring his
divine capabilities and possibilities,
cares simply to eat: drink and BE- ,.,. merry 1I:
thousands who I%are absolutely poor
toward God and who know not that they
are poor and naked and destitute, The
normal thing for man, in his is, view. bs ".
is fellowship with the highest, compan-
ionship with, the Maker of the universe
and the Father of all. Not that Christ
disesteemed the things that add to our
comfort and make life pleasant, but ne
held them infinitely lower in the scale
of values than love and peace and JOY
in the Holy Ghost and service in the
kingdom Of Christ. 80. ..

Two and One-half Ounces of Alcohol.

I am assured from observation extending
through fifty years of professional life, that
two and one-half ounces of alcohol or the
equivalent in the finest brandies, whisky,
wines, or ales. used daily for period OF
time at all extended, will not fail to
make an alcoholic habitue of: the most
finely endowed man or woman in the
world. The nervous system surely regis
ters the abnormal impression, no matter
how carefully the two and a half Dances
of alcohol may be taken. Once an habitue
and under the control of the alcohol ma
mia, the strongest man or woman becomes
impotcnt to escape from the tyranny of
it's power.
Thirty-six years ago two of the noblest
physicians, men of fine native and phySl-
tablespoonfuls of the purcst whisky, to in.
duce sleep when overworked. They were
younger than myself. One gradually lost
bis standing and practice and died four
gears ago, filling drunkard's grave; the
other possessing great native hardness OF
constitution, fingers yet, .opeless and
helpless alcohol habitue, whom neither the
entire medical pharmacopoeia, nor the
strongest moral aid has availed to save.
Two and one-half ounces of absolute alco-
hol are equal in volume to five tablespoon.
fuls. This amount of alcohol is found in
ten tablespoonfuls of the purest whisky
or brandy. I have recently secured the
services of two eminent chemists who
have analyzcd six varieties OF the finest
wines, native and imported. 1 give the
result Of these analyses by volume in COM
mon measurements, each being somewhat
less than the measure stated, to avoid
fractional reckoning. Two of our finest
California wines contain six tablespoonful
of alcohol in a pint One much vaunted
American wine has little over eight
tablespoonfuls of pure alcohol in one, pint.
One brand of port contains seven TIA BILE
spoonfuls of alcohol to pint. One

Cycling Notes.

The wheel is responsible for very
frw fatal accidents this year.
In the cities the wheel is much used
for going to and from business.
Many riders when they go on long
trip take out an accident policy. No
case is known where one has been
collected.
A single tube tire. with a chronic
inability to hold wind, may be made
to last out the season by removing
the valve, Sitting it for distance OF
five or six inches ana inserting an in-
her tube.

Free From Selfishness.

Is it, possible for any Christian to be
actually free from all selishness? Is
there any Christian now living who, has
this freedo1na: Will any one declare
that he; knows that he has not particle
of selfshness in: him? If there be such
an one, will he tell ,ls. how he knows
that he is thus free? BY what standard
does lie judge himself in this respect!
These are vital questions. Entire free.
dom from sel6shness in any form pre-
supposes the utter eradication from, q
person of all, carnality. It means. the
absolute removal from ones personality
of all that pertainpd to the old nature.
1t means. a perfectly pure personality:
If one have such personality. then 1T
mhy be truly said Of him that he Is en-
tirely free from sel6ahncss in every
form, and his works will be, its witness.

When a plant grows naturally, it does
not grow now and then. by tits anu
starts, but continuously. It is either
moving on in its daily march of c0ntlnu-
GUS growth. or it is III danger Of NOV

So with those who are growing III grace.
They grow continuously. They do not
make rapid growth one year or one
month, and then suddenly cease growing
till the following year or the following
month Their growth, if healthy, is not
intermittent. but steadily continued.
Whilst they live they grow, and when
they cease to grow there is danger that
they no longer live. When there is 10
