FREEDOM In CHRIST
brilliant Sunday Sermon BY Rev
Edward Huntington Rudd.
Shows How Faith Upholds Itself In man!
Forms of Christian Experience.

Hunting Rudd. pastor of the First Con
gregatona Church, Dedham, Mass,
preached Sunday morning in the Iomp'
kins Avenue Congregational Church to a
large audience. His subject was Free
dom in Christ and the text was from
John H.. l3 and II: But as many as
received Him to them gave He the right
to become children OF God, even to them
that believe on Ills name, who were born
not oi blood nor OF the will of the flesh
nor OF the will of man, but OF God Mr..
Rudd said:
Can do as | please? Or must | will to
do as another peases? Am | free agent
or are limitations placed upon me? Is lib
crty unrcstraned freedom, or am i the
more truly free when my actions and
words are controlled by divine laws, im'
posed willingly upon man by his own en-
lightened self?
To answer these questions intelligently,
clearly and helpfuly takes us at once into
that field of Christian sociology and OF tho
interrelaton of man with man and OF man
with his God which so engages the atten'
ton OF men everywhere to-day. The place
aud duty Of the church Is very clear. 1t
is to show men IN the spirit OF candor, OF
sympathy, OF open mndeducsS, OF toer-
ancc, that the word Of God gives Us great
elemental teachings by a master thinker
and reasoner, who was divine and who
claims the right to influence men. The SO.
called great problems of labor and capital
will find permanent solution only ny
the arbitrament OF the Man OF Gallec.
But it il your duty and mine to remind
ourselves and others that according as we
square ourselves with the requirements OF
God in Christ shall the problems. OF life
be met and he grappled and worth while
results be achieved

to what seemed to be round, brown
bowlder partly covered with moss.
Carelessly striking it, it gave forth
hollow sound. His curiosity being
excited, he dug away the earth with
his hunting knife and soon laid bare
symmetrically formed earthen jar.
The jar stands ten inches high. At
its largest circumference it measures
thirty inches, and at its smallest
twenty inches. The circumference of
the top or mouth of the jar measures
twenty-four inches.
The vessel on the inside bears signs
of use, but the outside shows no trace
of fire, as is usual in Indian jars. The
bottom is rounded. The ornamentation
around the top is of the usual style
of the Mohawk pottery-that is,
series of straight and diagonal lines.
The jar still bears the moss that had
gathered on the rounded bottom that
was exposed above the earth.

The United States has decided that

to Postmaster Randall Of Rockville,
Conn, with instructions to find its
owner.
The letter has been returned from
the Dead Letter Office, which it
reached shortly after it was written,
in November, 1903, because the party
to whom it was addressed could not be
found. On account of its Enclosure it
was returned to the office where it
was posted, so that 1t might be sent
to the writer, who had simply signed

'Lizzies are so thick in Rockville

Use of Earth az Food.

Consumption of earth as food is
said to be common not only in China,
New Caledonia and New Guinea. but
in the Malay archipelago as well. The
testimony of many travellers In the
Orient Is that the yellow races are
especially addicted to the practice. In
Java and Sumatra the clay used un-
dergoes a preliminary preparation for
consumption, being mixed with water,
reduced to paste, and the sand and
other hard substances removed. The
clay is then formed into small cakes
or tablets about as thick as a lead
pencil and baked in an iron saucepan.
When the tablet energies from this
process 1T resembles a piece of dried

MAGNET IN AN OPERATION.
Patients Life Saved by Drawing Up

TatlSHtS Lire 0aVeu ny Drawing Up
Nail He Had Swallowed.
The story of a curious surgical oper-
alton at the st. Antoine hospital has
been communicated to the London sur
gical society. The patient swallowed
a packing nail, which was shown by
an X-ray photograph to have lodged,
head downward, at the level of the
seventh rib.
A bronchoscope, which consists of
a tube, the inner surface of which is
highly polished to serve as a reflector.
and an electric lamp arranged SO as
to throw strong light on the tube,
was passed into the bronchial tube
and then withdrawn.
This process was repeated for six
days with larger and larger tubes, and
then an eight millimeter tube was in
serted to a depth of nearly Is inches.
A magnet had been specially made to
put into the tube, but it was too short
to fit and the coughing of the patient
forced suspension of the operation.
A second X-ray photograph showed
that the nail had now slipped to the
level of the eighth rib The doctors,
therefore, performed the operation of
temporary tracheotomy.
A 10 millimeter tube was introduced
to a depth of IA inches. The magnet
was introduced and the nail adhered
to it. The whole operation lasted only
five minutes and saved the patients
life.-New York Sun.

Peak, Colo. Prof. Bessey of the Uni
versity of Nebraska during recent
visit to that place, made an effort to
ascertain the age of some of the mag.
nificent specimens. He was fortunate
enough to find the stump of recently
cut tree on which it was easy to dis
tinguish the annual growth rings.
These were counted and it was found
that this particular tree was between
500 and 1000 years old.

is about the only kind of meat to be

seldom eat meat of any kind. A
