TuRE COURSE IN DISPUTE
WITH PARLIAMENT.
PEASANT UPRISING IS PREDICTED
FAILURE TO SECURE DIsTRiBU-
TIoN OF LANDS LIKELY TO #
CAUSE EXPLOSION.

st. Petersburg, May 29.-The pes
simism over the outlook continues to
grow. The government, as usual in
every crisis, seems to be hesitating as
to which course to pursue. The en-
peror refuses to yield to the counsels
OF the court camarilla, but his atti-
tude continues to be negative and not
Affirmative He seems to cling to the
idea that compromise is still possi-
BILE. Several official notes have been
Issued denying that the governm ment
intends to resort to force, but at the
same time there is no evidence that
demand for the suppression OF the
present ministry with one from the
majority in the lower house OF parlia-
ment. The result is virtual dead
lock, the prolongation of which can
only serve to diminish the chances Of
peaceful settlement.
Two plans for eXtricating the gov
ernment without changing the direct
issue are suggested by the emperor's
moderate advisers. One IS simply to
allow the lower house to talk until
the end OF June, when the summer
vacation will be scheduled The other
Is to dissolve parliament and order a
new election But either course, in
the opinion OF the best judges of the
situation will only Increase the dan
ger Of an explosion in the country.
Peasant Uprising Probable.
The peasantry, whose hopes are cen,
tered in parliament, undoubtedly will
be profoundly stirred by the govern
ment's refusal to distribute the crown
and church lands and recognize the
principle of the appropriation of pri-
vate holdings and many people expect
to see the destruction of their hopes
followed by an immediate uprising of
the peasants against the mobiles. The
reVoluti utionarys leaders and the prolez
tariat organizations Of the cities are
sure to profit by the deadlock and a
terroristic campaign Is already in full
swing.
When the lower house of parliament
met the debate on the personal liberty
bill was resumed. The feature was a
speech made by NJ. Checheglevitoff,
minister Of justice, in an exceedingly
liberal tone, pointing out the necessity
for supplementing the proposed laws.

ing for the reorganization of court
procedure and others to enable Off.
Gals guilty OF abuse Of power to be
prosecuted civilly and criminally.
The outcome of the minister's con-
ciliatory remarks was to show how
great is the gulf between parliament
and the ministry the speakers who
followed him scorning his advances
and declaring amid applause that par
lament wanted instead of the respon-
sibility OF the judges the responsible
ity of the ministry

velop free manhood. Only by this
| infusion of Christ's life can weak
man follow Him and grow like Him.
Il am the vine, We are the branches"
Except ye eat the flesh of the Son
of Man and drink His blood ye have
no life in YOU" II am the living
bread, the bread of God which
cometh down from Heaven and
giveth life unto the world"
A shallow infidel with flippant wit
called this the "cannibalism of the
church" This is not church ques-
ton. 1t is as practical as the call
| Of the doctor on which your life
| depends. 1t is more vital. Jesus
cares little about our formal worship,
He cares much about our daily con-
| duct. He cares most about our real
motives, our inmost life. The most
superficial thought must convince
any man that we can have no life
save from the God in whom we live
and move and have our being; and,
| furthermore, that we must receive
His life through the channels of His
own appointing. His channel for US
is the Son Of Man. If ye abide in
Me and My words abide in you, ye
i shall ask what ye will Of life and it
shall be yours. If any man live not
| in Me, he will be a withered branch
and be burned. If you live in Me,
God will break forth into glory of
abundant fruit in your life. Your
| joy will be full, your peace undis-
,turbed, "a, puzzle to men in the world
Of. trouble your strength as the
strength Of God"
| Richard Mansfield's most thrilling
sentence is, when as the prince, de-
prived Of natural childhood and
youth, with the vehement passion
of a mighty stream which suddenly
bursts the dam which had long re-
| strained it's natural flow, he says to
his fellow students: 1--WE are young,
and we're going to live" This hun
ger and thrust for life, abundant life,
Jesus approves. Even to those who,
in their eager infatuation for life,
choose "the way that seemeth right
unto a man, but whose end is death,
Jesus speaks: II came that you
might have life He that cometh
to Me shall never hunger, and. he
that believeth in Me shall never
thirst" Come to Jesus, and your
youth will have all your eyes and
heart can crave.
Oh, man about to turn away un-
convinced, take few Sabbath hours
to see the life He lived, and that you
may live with Him-to imagine the
face and bear the accents Of the
Prince of Life when He said to His
contemporaries in Palestine as He
says to His contemporaries in Amer
lea to-day: You will not come unto
Me that you might have life."

be the most fashionable at the pres

young girls and is treated after

worn either with or without the
smoothly fitted girdle. In the illus

The Livery of Christ.

If you wear the livery of Christ
you will find Him so meek and lowly
Of heart that you will find rest unto
your souls. He is the most mag
unanimous of captains. There never
was His like among the choicest of
princes. He is always to be found in
the thickest part of the battle. When
the wind blows cold He always takes
the bleak side of the hill. The heaV-
lest end Of the Cross lies over HIS
shoulders. If He bids us carry bur-
den, He carries it also.

STYLE Leaders in Paris.

Among the favorites Of the day
in Paris whose styles are ardently
copied are Mesdames Hading, Re-
jane, Granier, Sorel, Lanielme, and
Henriette Rogers. Madame Sarah
Bernhardt, who is still the idol Of
the capital, also has careful observ-
ers, but few outside of her circle
know how much of the dressmaker's s
craft itself the divine Sarah's own
clever fingers possess.
There are only two people in the
world who know anything about
sleeves" she is quoted as saying;
myself and my maid" The world
knows Sarxh's sleeves-those long,
wrinkled, glove-like coverings which
are the essence of grace. These she
often puts in with her own hands, al
tering other parts of a gown besides
to make more perfect the clinging
lines her figure requires.

North Dakota Solves the Adultera-
ton Problem.

North Dakota seems to have found
the key to the question, How shall
we protect the people from frauds in
manufactured products?" a plan
which is applicable to foods, bever-
ages, materials used in the arts, etc.
A new law has recently gone into ef-
feet designed to make it impossible
to deceive people into buying inferior
and adulterated paint under the i'm
preston that they are getting real
paint, viz: pure white lead and lin
seed oil. .... - ,....> ... ... ...r
Tie North Dakota lawmakers did
not attempt to absolutely prohibit
the inferior pigments, or mixtures OF
pigments. They adopted the slogan,
Let the label tell" and then left to
the people to buy whichever they
wished.
Under this plan, if any one wishes
to buy mixture of rock-dust, ground
quartz and other cheap elements
which are found in many paints and
so-called white leads" no one can
object; for they do it with their eyes
open. But if they prefer genuine
white lead and linseed oil, they can
be sure of getting it, for none but
the genuine article can bear a label
which says pure white lead"
In all other States mixtures are Of
ten sold as pure white lead which
contain little-sometimes no-real
white lead.
1t would seem that were this same
principle applied to food, beverages
and all other prepared articles, where
deception is practiced upon the buy
er, the question would be solved. 1t
would leave US free to buy what we
pleased, but would protect US from
unwittingly buying what we did not
want.

Faithful Stewardship.

One Of the p1ainest duties of stew
ardship is that we bring conscience
and deliberate consideration to bear
upon our administration of this
worlds goods. We are not faithful
stewards if we spend according to
our own whim and fancy, and let
charity" depend, as it SO often does,
on little better than accident or habit.
We are stewards in regard to what
we spend on ourselves and our fami-
lies, as well as in what we spend for:
purposes beyond ourselves; our per-
sonal: and domestic expenditure, our,
savings and our gifts, and the proper.
tion between: them should all equally:
pass under the inspection Of delib-
crate conscience. If that were once
thoroughly understood and practised'
by US, we should be very different,
people, and there would be very diff
ferent results from many an appeal
that is made to us. Stewardship
means deliberation, and intelligent
consideration, and conscientious dis
posal and administration as o.
fund that is not mine, but is put into
my hand.-The Rev. Alexander Nc
