The Sweater Appears.

Transatlantic tourists for a season
or two have experienced the comforts
and delight of the sweater, and ever
and anon the golfst has appeared with
a sweater Of blazing scarlet, and now
at last the shops boldly present sweat
erS.
Following the vogue for white, these
natty and exceedingly becoming gar
ments are shown in pure white tones.
They come in both merceriZed linen
thread and in hand knitted yarn, and
a new model is in cable stitch and
reaches below the waist line.
A becoming and unusual thing for
the girl who twill be different is a
sweater of pale gray. A fancy stitch Is
used in the make up Of the garment
which ends at the waist line with a
drop belt and which has as a finishing
touch a modish turnover stock and
tight cuffs.
The girl with a straight, 1.-THE figure
will promptly affect the sweater; hel
'chunky' sister will avoid it as she
would avoid the plague. The sweater
goes best with a trig tailor made skirt
many gored and severely plain in fin
ish and effect. The hat to keep com
pany with the sweater is a fiat affair
and thereon are laid, with the precision
of the milliner who really knows, {
quill or two and a severely plain bow
of the ''long line variety, and the bow
may be held down to the hat with {
cut steel buckle, and the buckle mus
keep to the general line and be Ions
and narrow.

Labouchere ON Rosebery.

Lord Rosebery's speeches always re-
mind me OF the description given by
Prince Bismarck of a certain Prussian
statesman: "At first he would have an
opinion, then he weakened it by self
contradiction, then again ali objection
to the contradiction occurred to him,
until at last nothing remained. He
was a clever speaker, but not inclined
to action; indeed, he resembled an in
Ola rubber ball, which hops, hops and
hops, but more feebly every time, until
1t at last comes to a full stop."-Lon-

Lt.ue ON clover Hay.

D. James. Langstaff, Ont, writes to
Practical Farmer: $! have heard that
air Stacked lime placed upon green clo-
yer when hauled into the barn will pre-
serve it and not injure the stock. Please
let me know if this is correct" Prac-
teal Farmer says in reply: Our advice
is to let the lime alone. If the clover Is
properly handled and cured mainly in
the cock till no sap can be wrung by Il
hard twist and is then stored in the
barn and let alone it will cure perfect
" and make better hay than with lime
or salt. Lime dust will certainly do the
stock ne good and may do them harm.

Practical Forestry.

Among the lecturers met at the Indi-
ana institutes last winter was MIR w.
II. Freeman, secretary of the state
board of forestry. l was impressed by
the practical nature of his efforts to
promote timber growing in his state.
He has faith in the direct p~roftableness
Of timber production to the farmer and
relies little upon sentiment. We may
understand that the removal of all for
ests affects our streams and the humid.
ity Of the air. but the owner of a farm
must figure upon income for himself,
Secretary Freeman believes that a
shortage of timber is near at hand and
hat a part of the hundreds of thou
sands of acres Of rough land lying north
of the Ohio river in southern Indiana
and southern and eastern Ohio should
be devoted to supplying a great de-
mand that is near at hand. The only
a view is to demonstrate its correct
ness, and so Mr.. Freeman has secured
legislation empowering his board to
purchase 1000 acres of land and to 60
to work upon the problem. Indiana Is
a great of second growth
stuff in her manufactures. and a por-
ton of this area will be given over t.
ash, hickory and other hard wood. The
land has small agricultural value and
is low priced, and the proposal is to
show that timber can be made the crop
with good profit to the landowner.-Al

Hellcborc For These Worms.

The currant and gooseberry worms
that consume the leaves, leaving the
bushes bare of foliage, will weaken the
bushes SO much That the berries will
not ripen, even the bushes being some
times killed. The worms may be pol
soned by the use of hellebore dissolved
in water and the bushes sprayed with
It. Take a tablespoonful of the helle-
bore, add a quart of hot water and al
low it to stand a few hours; then add
to it a pailful of water and spray the
bushes well with it. An old broom will
answer very well for spraying. The
worms are soon killed, and the poison
will not last long. In a few days the
berries may be eaten.-Midland Farm

Disabling Military Balloons.

Experiments to disable a balloon in
the air by rifle or field gun fire have
been carried out by the Austrian army.
A balloon 1000 feet high was held at
anchor. and the gunners, kept ignorant
of the range, We're told to disable it.
Twenty-Five shots were fired before
the approximate range was found, and
1t was only at the sixty-fourth round
that the balloon was hit. and that
slightly, but the small rupture of the
gas bag made it slowly descend.-Lon-

APPETITE coAxINo. Not Necessary When Proper Food is
 Used.

Coaxing up an appetite is hard work and unnecessary when little thought Is given to scientific feeding.
 Fill the stomach with the wrong stun and it is not long before the palate too Is affected and even the sight of food is nauseating. Stomach and nervous ills of all kinds soon come and the body is left without nourishment.
 Then take on Grapc-Nuts for few days and see the difference. Eating is no longer a duty but a delight. for the food is made of the proper grains pre- pared in a natural, scientific manner and the flavor is delicious. The case of a schoolma'am of Cedar Mills, Minn, Is in- teresting She writes: "I used to go without lunch many a day, not finding it tasty. In consequence I usually had a session was over ana felt nervous and cross.
 'I had almost concluded to give up teaching on this account when d friend induced me to try Grape-Nuts I will say frankly I did not care for 1t at first but tried it two or three times and then found myself beginning to enjoy the crisp nutty flavor.
 'eThe food has changed the order of my life. I carry 1t for lunch every day now The color has come back to my cheeks and lips and I have no more headaches or nervous spells.
 My body Is full of energy and new life and life seems worth the living now that I have found the proper food" :" Name given by Postum Company. Bat tie Creek, Mich.

Joyful Anticipation.

Another purpose which the Savior had in teaching this doctrine was to inspire men with such joyful anticipatlons of the eternal future as to enable them to beur the trials and self-dcnial incident to the Christian life in this present world To those who had left all to follow Him and who saw nothing but hardship and perse- cution between them and the grave, He said: Fear not, little flock; for it is your Fathers good pleasure 10 give you the kingdom.' Encouraged by anticlpa- tions of this kingdom, they too joyfully the spelling of their goods, knowing that In heaven they had a better and enduring substance. We are amazed at the fortI- tude with which the Apostle to the Gen tiles met prosecutions and trials; but all men are capable of such fortitude, who with Paul reckon that the sufferines of this present world are not worthy to be compared with the glory that shall be re- vealed in us'
 The crowning use of this glorious doc Urine is to kinde the light of hope in that darkness which surrounds the wretched sinner who has forfeited every claim to human confidence and who Is so conscious of his own unworthiness that he aban- dons all hope of regaining his lost estate. but who desires to end his days as n menial servant in that household where once he was q beloved son. That which -" '"'i eiS Poieole ol lHe 1ToulSal son might be more truly called the parable of the true Fathers love. For 'tis the Fatherhood of God as set forth here that marks this scripture as pre-eminentIy the high water mark of revelation. There is nothing new in the parable that specially draws attention until we read. And when he was yet a great way off hls father saw him, and had compassion upon him. and ran to him and fell on his neck and kissed him." As we see the fa athar,s arms clasped about the shrunken arms of his once wayward son our tears flow like fountain and our full hearts throb to the breaking.

DOCTRINE OF THE FATHERHOOD OF GOD 0r. Hendrix Breaches Eloquent
 Sermon at St. Johns. OF HISTORICAL INTEREST To the Jews He Was Jehovah the Righteous and Holy God Who
 Dwelt Apart from Sin and Sinners.

The following sermon was delivered by the Rev W. l.. Hendrix at St. Johns Methodist church yesterday morning;
 Our Father which art in heaven. Matt. 69.
 The doctrine of the Fatherhood of God is pre-emnently a New Testament doc Urine. To the Jews he was Jehovah, the righteous and holy God, who dwelt apart from sin and sinners He was worshiped with awe as the God before whom the na- tions of the earth are as nothing There were, however, specially illuminated souls who across the shadows or intervening centuries saw the gleaming of the Messi- anic dawn, and In its light apprehended the first intimations of the divine Father hood Like a father pilleth fls chill dren, so the Lord pitieth them that fear Him, Is fit prelude to the disclosures of the Sermon on the Mount, asserting the heavenly Fathers affectionate con cern for his earthly children.
 That this doctrine has been made to do service in behalf of the erroneous and unscrptuNl theory of universal saliva | tion is a sufficient reason for the presen- | tation of the scriptural teaching concern | ing it. It Is worse than folly to attribute to the heavenly Father those weaknesses | of the earthly parent which are invari- ably detriment to the child The earthly relation raised to perfection is only in it's best features an illustration of the di- vine Parenthood.
 Words of Jesus.
 The words of Jesus are authoritative concerning this doctrine; his words and not a part of them. Taking certain words of the Savior as though they were the only deliverance upon the subject, by logical process some have con- structed the doctrine of the universal Fatherhood, overlooking the fact that the conclusion must be partial derived from premises that are partial. That he taught that God is in a special sense the Father of some men. no competent student of his words can deny. And that God is in some sense the Father of all men. seems to be equally true. Dr. A B. Bruce one of the ablest advocates of universal Fatherhood, says that the Fatherhood of God as announced by Jesus, while having reference to all men, does not mean the same for all.
