not for the man OF the Christian church.
why? Simply because in the one case
man does not quickly yield his persuasions
and deny his pleasures and follow the
master. but in the other he does. the
spiritual man labors in his regeneration.
the celestial man performs at once the
principles OF goodness and truth which
are inscribed on mis- heart. The spiritual
man may make the labors Of hin regen-
Grafton easier for him by holding ms JudS-
ment in suspense before being persuaded
that ii is sound and safe for him to fol-
low. So he will grow more and more de-
liberate and careful lest he should lead
mis- ideas into error and be mistaken in
his opinion. He takes this method of safe
guarding others rom the natural con-
ceits, contempts, enmities and hatreds of
his inherited disposition. And he may
check the love of self which incline him
to permit no other way but his own, by
consulting the pleasure or convenience, or
satisfaction Of otl- ,rs. Not only where 1t
is easy for him to so deny himself but
where II is naturally very difficult. BY
such sacrifices this love Is broken OF its
tenacious persistence and by no other
means. Until then man calls the slavery
o. lust freedom and enjoys its insane
pleasuses. But by regeneration the laws
Of self and the world are removed and
man loves the Lord and his neighbOr.

The general lesson Of the text then may
be divided into two phases which are yet
distinctly one and mutually dependent
First, the man who is willing to be re-
generated and saved must see and con-
fess that his wickedness. his self-hood, his
own desires and his own conceits are IN
fernal and vile and therefore that they
could destroy his soul I'm hell, II the son
OF man had not come to save that which
was lost.
Secondly. There is a church which the
Lord has established on the tops OF the

I'm mani is prepared for life everlasting. III,

he should forsake the principles which

ready to submit himself entirely and UNI

The selling of impure preserves has made
but. little trouble in Minnesota until recentlvs
but the state dairy and food commission pi D
poses to look after II closely.
The impure preserves put on the market are
made from a oasis OF ample puTnice. The
pumice Is the refuse OF apple parings and ap-
PIE cores that are thrown aside BY the can
neries and evapofators. This refuse material
is baled and sold TO concerns that are inter-
ested in getting cheap products on the market
The refuse is fed through machines that re-
duce IL 10 a pulp. The purnice Is then given
an addition of glucose and a dash of navor-
ing and coloring extracts. In this condition
il can be strained so as to come forth very
marketable Jelly.
II preserves are wanted the punlice is left
unstained and given addition Of a small
quantity OF real fruit Strawberry preserves
are made by throwing in strawberry favortng
and adding enough timothy seed to keep up an
illusion. Raspberry preserves require appro-
pirate favor and color and the addition OF
turnip seed instead OF timothy.
These fraudulent preserves and Jellies are
not necessarily injurious to health in all cases.
but the nature OF their composition makes them
undesirable materials Of commerce. and they
are under the ban Of the state law.

tie was not over. He picked the bird
up, stuck the bill in his mouth and
blew new life into the birds body. 1t
was queer proceeding, but there was
a charm in 1t, and soon the bird was
ready for another round.
HE got up before he was counted
out and went at the Mugwump in a
way that made everybody applaud his
bravery. The mugwump evidently
thought II was a dying struggle, for
he was disposed to deal gently with
his wounded enemy.
ut was a bad mistake though, for
the War Horse landed well and drove
the gaffs into the Mugwump's neck.
This was the signal for bitter fighting,
and II was kept up until 1t was cruel
for people to look on.
after more than an hours scufiing
the MugwiImp was blinded, and in one
hour and fifteen minutes he was dead,
with a steel gait driven through his
brain. The shout that went up re-
minded one of the victory of some fa-
vorite in the prize-ring.

of the young. After a brood of chick

IT Is necessary, yet II is extremely

breeding game fighters Is not going to
lose 1t by selling towards.
1T takes a person familiar with the
business to get the best results, and
for this reason 1t is necessary to give
ones entire time and attention to the
narnyard. Nowadays. while there are
no fights in this state to speak Of the
owners can exercise more care IN

be satisfied that you will get an hon

New York, Dec. 20.-Nearfy 10000
letters written to Santa Claus by as
many trusting New York children have
been received at the general postoffice
so far this holiday season. This comes
pretty nearly being a record breaking
number.
But while this is the case. 1t Is also
true that the majority of the letters
seem to come from sections of the city
where well-to-do people live, and do
not contain the pitiful pleas noticeable
in hard times. Therefore, Postmaster
Van Colt argues that a great many of
the little letter writers will be amply
taken care of by Santa on Christmas
morning. Still, the messages in hum
dreds of the letters indicate only too
plainly that if Santa is to gladden. the
hearts of the authors, charitably in
clined persons must see to it that the
great saint of the children does not
fail to see the chimneys leading down
into many tenement house on the
East Side.
Every nationality on the East Side
is represented among the writers, and
this fact once again shows how readily
the children of foreigners take up
strictly American customs, and how
alike children from all over the globe
are in their naive simplicity and SIM
pie trustfulness.
It is interesting to know that Post
master, Van Colt has taken personal
charge of the mail to Kris Kringle, and
is endeavoring to find people who will
see to it that the messages are deliv-
cred and their writer's wishes fulfilled
partly, If not in whole.
As rule the letters from the poor
er classes of children ask for but lit
tie. One little girl requests "just one
big rag dolly, please dear Mr.. Sam
Ia" Another pleads with the jolly lit
lie gentleman for "a dolly for Mary
she's my little sister-and a dolly bed
for me. And wen take turns calling
mem our own and playing with them,

smaller requests. than the boys. who
generally ask for two or three things.
