SUNDAY SERVICES
IN LOCAL CHURCHES.
MIR. Elwood Talks Interesting
ly Of the Empty Coal
Scuttle,

Last night in Olivet Presbyterian
Church the Rev. Robert A. Elwood
preached on The Emyty Coal
Scuttle." Members of the labor
unions attended in a body and the
house was crowded to the doors.
MI. Elwood took as his text,
wherefore, all things whatsoever
ye would that men should do to you,
do you oven SO to them. from Mat
thew vii, ~. In beginning his dis
course Mr.. Elwood said that the four
lesSonsto be learned from the indus
trial war now waging are:
The necessity of Government
ownership uf public utilities. The
necessity of national board of
arbitration as branch of the ma
tional government. The necessity Of
carrying into force in business life
the principle of the Golden Rule.
The necessity of individual Chris
tan life.
Mr.. Elwood pictured Jesus Christ
descending from heaven and stalk
among armed guards, silent collie
ries and the desolate homes of the
miners in Pennsylvania.
Jesus meets a miner continued
the preacher, land the latter tells
Him Of the hard labor he has to
perform and the danger to which
he is exposed. The miner tells Him
that whom the mines arcin operation
an average of two miners is killed
daily. He tells Him of the pitiful
wages received and shows Him his )
children of stunted growth, who are
compelled to labor to earn bread".
Mr.. Elwool portrayed the Say
Jour grasping the arm of miner
about to hurl stone at non-rlnion
man, and remarking:-
II was laborer, too, and love
the laboring men. See my hands.
ttat bear the prints Of nails. Stand
firm, quit We like men, be strong; 10,
! am with thee always"
Mr.. Eiwood, IN conclusion, said
that If all the miners aud operators
who have been saying Il am a Christ
ian" had been spending their time
In dong the will Of God toward
their felIow.men there would have
been no strike OF the miners.

SMILES AND TABLECLOTHS.
Temper Trying Days and What Can
BE Done Thereon


Our grandmothers had It impressed
upon them by one Of the popular cook.
books Of their day that a smile and q
clean tablccloth would do wonders to.
ward making up for the deficiencies of
a meal. AS human nature is said to
be one Of the few unchanglng things
on our planet, 1t would be Just as well
for the housekeepcrs Of our own day
TO bear In mind this consolatory as
sertion in time of trial
There are, in the experience of most
housekeepcrs, not only Black Fridays,
but Black Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednes-
days, etc. as Weekdays when the hap
pcning Of the unexpected always turns
out to be some calamitous occurrence;
days when the cook leaves without
warning or the butcher, hitherto sup
posed to have conscience, sends in
joints that would try the teeth OF a
shark or broiers that would require
the services Of stewpan; days when
the biscuits are pronounced by critics
to be as hard as Pharaoh's heart and
the soup might be described as Lots
wife in solution; days when the pie
crust is heavy and the potato refuses
to be boiled into meainess These are
temper trying days-days on which life
seems to be scarcely worth the having.
1t Is then, We take it, that the clean
tablecloth is much more easily pro-
duced than the smile. Soap and water
are cheap and we have them always
with us.
The Salvationists tell us that the
members Of their famous Stun brl-
gades. in order not to be ovcrstylish for
the taste Of those among whom they
work, will sometimes don aprons with
holes in them. Rags they can put up
with, but they draw the line at dirt.
That they will not tolerate as long as
there is bar Of soap to be had for
love or money. The well intcntloncd
housekeeper will profit by their exam
pie. If her tablecloths have been worn
thin in the washtub, there is, in time
of stress, no harm in using one that
is past darning, but it should be guilt
less of jam or gravy spots.
We read that on one occasion the
famous March family Din Little Wom-
cn'D with one consent went to work to
meet some untoward happening with
cheerful spirit, and, being family
Of a decided dramatic turn" they sue
cecded admirably. II ever we feel
within ourselves such gift, the time
to bring it into play is when things in
general 60 at skies and at sevens. Such
histrionics have nothing in them of de-
ceit or guile. They are only an out,
ward demonstration Of the commend

A Short Christmas Sermon.

Text. Behold l bring you
good tidings of great joy, which
shall be to all people. Luke II; 10.
This was a message to the
waiting world from God.
A wonderful message it was
that the angel brought, not from
the king of heaven to an earthly
RULER. 1t was not from the glo-
rious city to the worlds metropo-
lis nor to the wealth blessed ma
tions of any land, but to COM
pany of humble shepherds, abb
ding in the field and keeping
watch over their flocks by
night.
Not wonderful is it that sort
of terror seized them as "the
glory of the Lord shone round
about them" Then to add to
their surprise there appeared a
celestial choir, such as never be-
fore nor since has visited this
old world of ours, and sang an
anthem. What music, what
words, imagination in its wild
est flights will fall far short OF
realizing the grandeur and sweet
ness of the music, or the glorious
truth of the words.
The tidings were good to the
humble and the high born and
the joy it brought filled the
whole earth.
Centuries have passed. Again
comes the old, old story to us to-
day, the story of the birth of the
Christ, the worlds Savior.
How else should Christ be borr
lin humility and pain, in obscur.
