Topic: 1.-THE Home Mission Work OF Our Denomina-
ton Matthew ix:35-3S; x:1-15.
IS. And Jesus went about all the cities
and villages, teaching in their synagogues,
and preaching the gospel of the kingdom
and healing in every sickness and every dis
ease among the people.
36. But when He saw the multitudes He
was moved with compassion on them, be-
cause they tainted, and were scattered
abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.
81. Then said He unto His disciples The
harvest, that He will send forth laborers
are few.
SO. Pray we therefore the Lord of the
harvest, that He will send forth laborors
into his harvest.
l. And when He had called unto Him His
twelve disciples He gave them power
against unclean spirits, to cast them out,
and to heal all manner. OF sickness and all
manner of disease.
2 Now the names Of the twelve apostles
are these: The first, Simon who is called
Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the
son of Zebedee, and John his brother.
g. Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas, and
Matthew the publican. James the son OF
Alpheus. and Lebbaeus, whose surname was
Thaddeus:
L. Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Is
CARROT who also betrayed Him.
8. These twelve Jesus sent forth, and COM
manded them. saying. Go not into the way
OF the Gentiles and into any city Of the
Samaritans enter We not
6. But go rather to the lost sheep OF the
house of Israel.
Z. And as we go, preach, saying, The king
dom of heaven Is at hand.
s. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers raise
the dead. cast out devils: freely We have re-
ceived, freely give.
8. Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor
brass in your purses,
10. Nor scrip for your journey. neither
two coats, neither Shoes nor yet slaves;
for the workman is worthy of his meat.
II. And into whatsoever city or town ye
shall enter. inquire who in it is worthy;
and there abide till ye go thence.
IL. And when ye come into an house. sa-
lutte II.
IL. And If the house be worthy, let your
peace come upon it; but If 1t be not worthy,
let your peace return TO you.
IA. And whatsoever shall not receive you,

BEAUTY.

Her eyes are bis and frank and brown,
Her cheeks are drmpled and her nalr
Is softer than the thistle down
That lightly floats upon the air.
She does not seek to make me think
That have won her love, and then,
BY flirting cause my heart to sink
Till she comes back to me again,
She has no priggish ways, she knows
No traces of false modesty,
And she has not assumed a pose
Intended for impressing me.
She does not try to hide her smile
When suddenly chance to turn;
She does not flatter to beguile,
She does not lure that she may
opurn.
Yet she imparts 10 me no thrill
Such us she might if she had pouts
And moods and faults that served to
Me with a hundred fears and doubts.
She is little lady's doll
An almost perfect work of art
But beauty charms not, after all,
If back of it there is no heart.

A USELESS COLLEGE CHAIR.

umbia university is to have chair Of
Gaelic. 1t may be that a literature
worthy of comparison with old Eng.
lsh exists in this tongue; but it is
likely that those who desire to explore
1t will be few, Latin, Greek. German,
French. Italian and Spanish make up
about as many languages as the aver.
rye cultivated person cares to learn.
Nor does Gaelic occupy the position
that old English does as an essential
part of our literature Probably the
devoted Neo-Celts like Mr.. Yeats and
Lady Gregory can give us all the
Gaelic literature we need in translated
form.

Hard Fire to Subdue.
Chief Fire Marshal Campion de-
clarcd last night that the fire was the
worst he has ever tried to subdue,
because of the difficulty in finding the
blaze. There are no doors or windows
giving access to the burning sawdust,
which Is packed lightly between the

Firemen worked on the walls all day,
opening holes, but in each instance
where the outlet was made the firemen
were compelled to run for their lives
on account of the rush Of smoke ana

Thirty companies of fremen worked
necessarily, trying to get leads OF hose
into the sawdust-fillcd compartments
between the walls to prevent the
flames from reaching the grease soaked

Washington, Jan. 17.-China's atten

necessity for tho faithful maintenance
Of her neutrality not only In her per

on receipt of the fun text of Count

been repeatedly violated, yesterday
prepared instructions for the American
charge at Pehdn, directing him to
make inquiry of the Chinese govern
mont regarding the situation.
1t Is specifically declared that this
action cannot In any way be construed
MS indicating that this government as.
sumes responsibility for the charged
made by Russia. Indeed, this govern.
mont has received no information
through It's legation at Pekn nor
through the various American consu.
lateh in China that the Chinese are
Violating the rules of neutrals.
Nevertheless, in view of RussIa's eX.
pressed anxiety over the situation in
China, which her investigation dis.
closes the American government is
ready to do what 1t can to save China
and ether neutral powers from the far
reaching complications which ii IS
feared would follow an extension to
Chinese territory of the zone of hos
tilitics This is the second time Sec.
rotary Hay in u friendly spirit has
urged on China the advantages which
strict observance of neutrality holds,
not only for her people, but for the re.

WASHING coLoRED STOCKINGS.

Make a strong lather of soap and
water, as hot the hands can bear.
After washing the stockings, rinse in
cold water, with, if the articles be col.
ored, little salt thrown in to prevent
the colors running. 1t is very neces.
sary to wiring as much water out as
possible, and then wiring again in dry
towel. Dry Immediately before a fire
The article must be hung up, not laid
oyer anything. On no account must
soap itself be rubbed on, nor, if the
article be colored, must it be allowed
to lie about in folds before drying, fol
by so doing it Is apt to stain. The
stockings must be dried Immediately
in the wind or before a fire, as long
cold drying is sure to make the colors
run.
