GOOD THINGS TO KNOW.

That lit is less pain to learn in youth
than to go ignorant in old age
That to make long lived friendships
one must be slow in making them.
That the man or,woman who gains
tribe meanly is meaner than the tribe.
That it takes two to prolong d fam
lily quarrel; one can therefore always
terminate If.
That if we thought all we said we'd
be wise, but if we said all We thought
we'd be foolish.
That if she cannot throw brightness
over her home, it is best not to throw a
wet blanket over it.
That filling a house with bargains
keeps a couple from owning the house
in which they place them.
That proud people very seldom have
friends. In prosperity they knew no
body, and in adversely nobody knows
them.-Woman's Life

SUNDAY SERMON

The prophet Jeremiah sad and de-
spondent over the fate of Jerusalem
which he knew was doomed, COM
mited his inspired utterance to writ
ing by the assistance Of his friend
and companion Baruch. Then he
caused his secretary to read the scroll
to the assembled people in thetemple
The recital caused a sensation as
great as would be felt now if some
preacher should solemnly declare
the Japanese would shortly capture
the capital at Washington and over
run the land. Jeremiah not only
prophesied the destruction Of Jerusa-
lem but scathingly denounced pre-
vailing sins of the goddess city of
which not only Jehoiakim the king
but his mobiles and princes were the
leaders aud promoters. And in di-
rect and unsparing terms he made
the appalling announcement Of ap-
preaching calamities. We have no
record of any prophet or preacher
who ever used language SO terrible,
SO daring. His maledictions fell like
thunderbolts -his tongue cut to the
bone. 1t was Gods last desperate
effort to arouse the nation from the
immortality and irreligion
So intense was the excitement
caused by this prophecy that the
matter came to the ears of the king
who ordered the roll to be read to
him. So the book was brought into
the royal presence. 1t was winter
and a fire burned in brazier in the
throne room Of the palace. The fire.
light falls upon the faces of the
lords and princes who bend for
ward to hecr the startling docu-
ment. Jehudi unrolls the book
freighted with words of doom but
LIE had scarcely begun to read be-
fore the king flew into a violent
passion and snatching the manu-
script from the readers hands he
cut it into shreds with his penknife
and flung the multilated leaves into
the fire. Jehoiakim thus showed
contempt for God and his, prophet
and his book. Thus he rejected the
last warning with scorn and anger
and plunged headlong to his doom.
While to restore the book VIII Oh
was destroyed Baruch once more
transcribes while jeremiah dictates
terrible prophecy adding this time
the only ep1taph Jehoiaklm ever had
Buried with the burial of an
assam epitaph which was literally
fulfilled for at the death of the
king SO intensely was he hated that
no dirge was sung over his remains
while his dishonored body was
thrown outside the walls of his
capitol like the carcass of a dead
ass.
King Jehoiakim made the very
con- mon mistake of supposing that
he got rid of the prophecy by getting
rid of the book. There are multi
tudes today who act as foolishly.
