THE SUNSHINE ARMY.

There is no army like the Sunshine
army. Every state in the Union in GER
tain degree is organized. Thirty-six have
state presidents, and next, year we, shall
be so banded together for doing good that
our sunshine will be felt all over the
world.
When we nave learned the lesson of
cheerfulness and sunshine ourselves we
realize that we have a mission to others
to add to their cheer; and we !earn, too,
that this ministry of helpfulness is per-
petual benediction. This helpfulness may
be expressed by feeding the hungry min
istering to the sick, giving money, or
merely by being cheerful-all exert their
influence for good.
Perhaps the first duty of the Sunshiner
is cheerfulness. Every one carries an at
mosphere about him; let him see that that
atmosphere is healthful and invigorating,
and that it makes some little spot in the
world a better and safer place to live
in.
Write to me that you want your name
registered. Send in what you wish as your
dues. Stamps are always most acceptable.

canning establishments is something
larger. The main seats of the indus
try are Maryland, Maine, New York
and California, with Ohio, Illinois,
Virginia and Indiana occupying con-
spicuous places. Iowa, Wisconsin
and Minnesota are also in the field.
There is hardly a state in the Union
which has not some share in the in
dustry.
The value of the canned goods an
nually put up in the United States is
close to $100,000,O00. Tomatoes are a
leading staple of the Maryland pack
ers and of packers generally in the
Middle states; beef is canned mostly
north and west of the Ohio river;
sardines and Holsters are leading fea-
lures in Maine; salmon is put up
mostly in Oregon and Washington,
and oysters in New Jersey, Delaware,
Maryland and New York. Massachu-
sets is naturally the state which
makes the largest output of canned
beans. Corn, milk, apples, pears,
pineapples, small fruits of various
kinds, pumpkins, sqashes, etc, are
canned in large quantities wherever
they are plentifully grown.
Rivalry is leading to the use of
preservatives and coloring matter,
and the question is up to legislatures
and courts.

NEARLY EVERYTHING NOW IN
CANS.

Before the Civil war about the only
canned goods" were oysters and sar-
dines-and the latter were imported
from abroad. Tons of vegetables
went to waste in all parts of the coun-
try every year because they could not
be used before they spoiled, and many
del1cacies now universally enioyed
could then be had only within linn
tied distance from their places of
origin.
The first experiment in canned
goods, after oysters, was made by the
lobster packers. Then came canned
salmon. Then tomatoes. Then Eng
lish plum pudding and Boston baked
beans. After that, the deluge. There
is hardly anything eatable which is
not now put up in cans, and where
ever the advance guard of civilization
pushes its way, through the jungles
OF Africa or across the snowy steppes
of Russia, or where the wide and
rushing Yukon washes over gold
bearing quartz, empty cans mark it's
way.

A broken and contrite heart o God,

The golden text is the 10th verse:
We saw last Sunday that David
abandoned his plan for building a tenn
pie. The time was not ripe, and Je-
hovah took the will for the deed and
led David to go on with his own great
work of establishing and extending
the kingdom. 1t was a work of war;
but paved the way for all era of peace.
David stood the tests of adversely
better than those of prosperity. Ease
and luxury were beginning to tell on
his character. Instead of leading his
armies into battle, he now left them to
Joab, and remained himself in his
harem at Jerusalem. The fact that in
those days it was considered eminent
~ proper for king to have a harem
did not make that harem less democrat
1zlng. The sad story of Davids moral
weakness when tempted, and then of
his deliberate murder to conceal his
sin and add another woman to his
harem, is told in Samuel Black as the
sin has been, Jehovah forgave the pen
ltent man, but the results of the sin
| troubled David's life to the end. God
may forgive, but the law of that what
soever man soweth ne shall surely
reap remains
Dayid's marvellous prayer for pardon
is the psalm which serves as the les
son here. 1t is not known who wrote
this psalm but it fits Davids circum-
| stances so fully that many suppose it
was written by him after the visit of
Nathan. In its words the penitence
and aspiration of those who have done
wrong have found expression through
all the centuries to the present time.
Is there not place for the confession
and prayer of the first few verses in
every Christian experience? The one
Offering the prayer has hope, but it is
In Gods loving kindness rather than
In his own deserts.

psalm, and we reprint the American

According to the multitude of thy
tender mercies blot out my trans

And done that which is evil in thy

That thou mayest be justified when

And be clear when thou judgest.
5. Behold, l was brought forth in in

The life of Moses is the most easily
remembered of all the Old Testament
characters. 1t Is divided into three
equal periods of forty years each. He
was born in Egypt and spent his first
forty years there, being trained in the
home and afterward in the palace,
where he learned all the wisdom OF the
Egyptians for the work which God had
in store for him.
His second period was spent in Mid
ian, whittier God sent him after
serious exhibition of impulsiveness
that He might teach him the lesson of
patience.
The third period of his life was
spent in leading the Israelites from
Egypt to Canaan, and, this accom-
plished, God called him up higher.
Alone with God on Mount Neto ne
'"fell in sleep" and was not seen on
earth again until he appeared with
Moses upon the Mount of Transfigura-
ton.
The life of Moses is rich in practical
lessons, and the difficulty is not what
to say, but what to leave unsaid in the
limited space before u.s.
1. Moses teaches the Importance of
education for successful life work.
Many decry education. but it cannot be
done without in the light of Moses
life. God educated him in the home, in
the learning of the schools of Egypt
and in the great school of experience
before he had him ready for his life
work. He spent eighty years in pre-
pairing him to do forty years work.
And it paid.
2. Moses teaches a lesson on Christ.
In many respects he was a type of the
Christ who was to come to Israel and
to the world.
Moses teaches a lesson in faith
fuIlness to God. With but one eXcep-
ton, an act of disobedience that cost
him an entrance into Canaan, Moses
WAS most faithful To God.

THE LAW OF THE HARVEST.

The Epworth league topic for Oct.
IS, is found in John xii, 24-26. 1t was
a great discovery to find the secret of
vegetable life. What wealth Of posi-
bilities is in the grasp of that discov-
ererI Calculate what harvests can be
had from this single seed in the world
fields now wilderness in the ages to
comet What accumulation. what dis
tribution, what feeding of multitudes,
what industries! Measure the volume
of the worlds agriculture and all the
commerce and industries related to it,
and you may then estimate the worth
of this discovery of the first man who
penetrated the secret of nature and
learned how to make the earth yield
him haryests from his own seed sow
ing.
Is that all he learned? That is all.
He learned about wheat and its grow
ing-seed and earth and increase of
wheat-nothing more. That is why "in
the process of time it came to pass that
Cain brought of the fruit of the ground
an offering unto jehovah He could
plant and he could gather, but he could
not make seed reproduce itself. Je-
hovah must do that. Jehovah, be
favorable and give greater harvests."
Jehovah is the reproducer of wheat.
We want wheat, and so worship the
wheat god with the offerings of wheat.
We give little and expect much. That
is the law of harvest. 1t is our bust
ness to plant and gather, build barns
and hoard wheat. 1t is Gods business
to give US all the wheat we want. That
is what Cain learned. 1t is all His
children have yet learned in harvest
field and wheat pit. Wheat is known,
but God is unknown.
Is that the secret of nature? Far
from it. That is only the parable. The
law of harvest is spirit given and
spirit discovered by law.
The Son of Man discovered the law
of wheat harvest and taught it to His
brethren. There must be planting and
gathering. This is the work of men
The increase must come from God. He
says, whatsoever would save his life
shall lose it," Keep the seed unplant-i
ed and you shall reap no harvest 81
Are you earning the secret of the law
of harvest? Not that any of US has
yet mastered it. only the Christ has
yet been offered up as a kind of first
fruits. We grow on until the angel
reapers shall sing harvest home"
Then shall the Son of Man bring of the
fruits of earth unto Jehovah and shall
not be ashamed. because the Lord shall
have respect unto the offering and the
offerer. Are you growing into an ac-
