The first is, John was ready to give up

even to WELD up his life. Are you and

The parents have more to- do with the

How are the parents to send them there?

ST. John Was Practical.

How do you know he was careful about
his money matters and careful to pro-

BILE teach us that? l never heard of st.
John being a capitalist or being careful
about his money matters" Yes, my
friends, | think the Bible tells us that st.
John was very prudent and careful about
the probabilities of life.
Here is the pictures: Christ is dying;
the great drops of agony are wrung
from his brow; groan after groan es-
capes his lips; he has only a few hours
more of life To whom is he going to
intrust the care of HIS mother? All the
poets and the painters and the theolo-
gians love to describe the helplessness
of Mary the Virgin when Jesus was about
to be born. Tell me. was she as help

the crucifixion. when. as a broken down.
helpless widow, she knelt at the foot of
the cross to see her divine son die? Tell
me, where can you find in all history a
picture so pathetic as that crucifxion
scene of Mary in her desoiation and
helplessness? All yes: the most pathetic
scene In all the Bible to me is that broken
hearted widow watching the dying agony

its echo in agony of maternal heart; dy-
ing gasp of Jesus is answered by the
moaning cry of this mother, who swoons
away. Now, Christ was God, but Christ
was also man, and Christ did for his
mother just what you and l would do
for ours If we had been in his place. He
wanted to put her in the care of one who
would never neglect her and never let
her want. He did not give her~to Peter:
he was not sure of Peter; Peter was not
steady enough. But he gave her to the
faithful John. He practically said:
John know you will never neglect her :;
know you will clothe and feed her and
give her a home to shelter her weary
head. Look after her for my sake

HOT ONIONS FOR PNEUMONIA

owing to the prevalence Of pneu-
monia and the great mortality which
attends its ravages during the winter
and spring, several boards of health in
northern New Jersey have been taking
measures to protect the citizens of their
towns from the disease. The health
board of Washington, N. J., has pup
lished a remedy which is said to be of
advantage in the treatment of pneu
monia, and other health board are
looking into the matter with a view to
having the same thing published for the
good of the general public. This is the
publication as it has appeared in the
papers of Washington:
Take six to ten onions according TO
size, and chop fine, put in a large spider
over hot fire, then add the same guam
tity of rye meal and vinegar enough to
form a thick paste. In the meanwhile
stir it thoroughly, letting it simmer five
or ten minutes. Then put in a cotton
bag large enough to cover the lungs and
apply to chest as hot as patient can
bear. In about ten minutes apply an
other, and thus continue by relocating
the poultfces, and in a few hours the
patient will be out of danger This
simple remedy has never failed to cure
this too often fatal malady. Usually
three or four applications will be suffi-
cient. but continue always until the
perspiration starts freely from the
chest. This remedy was formulated
many years ago by one of the best ply
sicians New England has ever known,
who never lost a patient by the dis
ease, and won his renown by simple
ies.'-Leslie's Weekly.

At the ladies' state tournament in 1901
the four sisters took all the prizes.
In 1901 when she won the champion
ship of the Pacific coast, May Sutton
was emily fourteen years old. Her play
ing even then was so remarkable that
it required the utmost skill of George
Whitney, one of the best men players
in America, to defeat this mere child,
and he barely succeeded in a contest
talked of to this day in California tennis
circles. 1t was at San Rafael, a game
of mixed doubles, Whitney against the
little girl May. A large audience was
present, and it became wild as a base
ball crowd at sight OF this child meet
ing the Pacific coast man champion s
strongest strokes with an ease and skill
which came within hairs breadth of
defeating him.
May Sutton is Of stocly build, strong,
active and graceful as any boy who
plays baseball. She is said to play a
mans game" at tennis, and experts
say that with a little training she
would make an admirable baseball
player. She refuses to be hampered by
tight clothing. She has strong, round
neck that an artist would delight to
paint a neck that would look its best
in the colIarless gown few women can
venture to wear. She is a handsome,
athletic looking girl, with the face of a
schoolgirl to this day, though she is
now nineteen.
