Every one knows in general way
that the navies of the world, Including
that of the United States, have been
in competition Of late, and that all Of
them have been increasing In size at
enormous cost to the respective coun-
tries, How swift this Increase has been
can hardly be appreciated, however, un-
til one examines such a graphic por-
trayal Of 1t as Is given, for example,.
In the diagrams contained in the 1907
number of the Statesman's Year Book.
In figuring naval strength experts now
adays reduce all their figures to what
they call "Dreadnought" units" Bat
tile ships Of the Dreadnought class are
treated as having value Of one point,
and other battleships are given proper
tional values according to their size
and efficiency. Our American Louis
lana, for instance would rank as 80
and our Maine as 60. Since battleships
take about three years to construct, the
comparisons of strength can be made
for the immediate future years on the
basis Of battleships under construction
as well as for the present and past
Now comparing battleshlp strength in
this way, the diagram shows that in
1900 the British strength was 1O5
points, which was more than that OF
any other two powers combined. Our
American strength was just 2 points
and we held fifth place among the pow.
ers in this respect. So swiftly do the
curves of strength mount upward that
by 1910 the British battleshlps will
stand at close to 80 points, which Il
more than three times as great as In
1900 That will be just about the
strength Of any other two powers, the
United States excepted. The United
States will have increased from :
points to 81; France from 65 to 20
Germany from 2.5 to 1856; Russia, de
| spite all her war losses, from 3.5 to Q
Japan from to II, and even ITALY
from 1.5 to 6 points. The curves fol
armored cruiser strength are almos
as striking In 1906 the United States
became the second power in battleshiI
strength and also In armored cruiser
strength. She will remain the secont
power in battleships until 1910 at least
though in armored cruisers France will
equal her by 1909 and Japan will ad
vance to second place. The diagram.
remind one of the betting In pokel
game. Even on the basis Of the hare
figures, 1t is not quite certain how
much Of the strength displayed by an,
nation Is bluff.

No Place for Burglar Under bed.

With every big robbery reported in
hotels furniture manufacturers come to
the front with the boast that, wherever
else the robber may have hidden him
self, 1t certainly wasn't under the bed.
because beds nowadays are built too
low for even the thinnest of villains to
hide under them.
'For many years losses of money
and jewelry,' said furniture manu-
facturer, "were attributed Indirectly at
least to the bed, which was built high
enough to afford protection to the thief.
Finally, In order to save the good name
of that necessary piece of furniture we
decided to build 1t 80 low that not even
an infant can crawl under 1t, thereby
compelling the enterprising burglar to
seek hiding place elsewhere."-P -Phila-
delphla Record.

Pineapple Preserve.

No pineapple preserve is SO delicious
as the old-fashioned grated sort, rich
and flavorous. The fruit Is pared,
grated and measured, and a pound of
sugar allowed to each pint Of pulp.
Add the sugar to the fruit in a porce-
lain kettle and put it on the range,
grading the heat so that it is moderate
for the first twenty minutes. After
that time the kettle may be drawn to q
hotter part of the range, where 1t
should still cook gently for about three
quarters of an hour 1t should be clear
and transparent when done, and about
the consistency of marmalade. If a
specially juicy variety Of the pineapple
is used the pulp may be drained in a
sieve before it is cooked, the finished
preserve being the richer for it. The
juice thus taken out is useful to flavor
sauces, or with particularly agreeable
results an apple compete.

Mushrooms and Cream.

Get very large mushrooms and re-
move the stems; peel them andput each
one on round of toast in a baking
dish, first coverings the toast with thick
cream and seasoning with salt and pap
rika. Turn the cupside of the mush-
room up, and fill this with more thick
cream, paprika and salt; cover tightly
and bake in hot oven forty minutes |;
remove, but let the dish stand covered
four minutes that the mushrooms may
absorb the steam; serve in the same
dish without the cover; the mushrooms
may also be put in Individual dishes.

is like plant, In so far that 1t is root
ed in something. Just as the root holds
the tree in its place, and is the means
by which sustenance passes into 1t,
pleasure love of gain, appetite, selfish
ness, are the roots Of mems lives. Ev-
cry life has its root that holds it where
it is, and that very largely makes it
what it is And our Lord Jesus Christ's
earthly life was rooted and grounded
in love- We may turn to any page that
we will of the Gospel story, and we
may ponder any incident that either of
the evangelists has recorded, and we
shall come to the conclusion that at the
head of every column and at the base
of every column we may inscribe 1.-THE
Son of, God loved"
He gave His love, but He gave more
He gave His WILL AS far as one can
understand the philosophy of the Atone
ment and can get at the secret of that
reconciling power by which men are
brought back to God, it Is when we
stand by Christ in Gethsemane, and
when we hear Him pray that wondrous
prayer, IF it be possible, let this, cup
pass from Me-" and then takes 1t back
and amend His prayer: in all points
made like unto us. He fashions His
prayer and says, Nevertheless, not as
l will, but as Thou wilt" And His will
is bent, His will is broken. His will Is
surrendered, and He gives His will. The
citadel of our humanity, the secret Of
our personal life, the 1 of the 1, He
gives for us. "Not as 1 will, but as
Thou wilt"
You and l tonight are in the pres
ence Of Him Who, once dead, lives
again; not before crucilX on which
the body of the dead Christ rests, but
before a cross from which Christ has
ascended into the heavens we stand.
And, brothers, sisters, you and have
to say, and say it solemnly, some for
the first time, and some for the thou
sandth time, "He died to save me !;
what can do for Him?"

to social intrigue, and successful chief
ly in the devising of gay and expensive
fashions, to the depletion Of English
and American pocketbooks. In point
of fact, the French as a nation have
certain notable virtues which we may
emulate. For example, the average
Frenchman, instead Of being a wan
derer, is emphatically a family man.
His ruling ambition is to own home
which he may enjoy himself and be-
Queath to his children. If he has in
herited one, it is his greatest pride to
preserve and beautify 1t. He chooses
his wife not only for her dowry, but
also for her domestic virtues. The
French wife is the best business wom-
an In the world. Household affairs are
left entirely to her, and 80 usually is
the investment Of family savings. She
has clear idea of what makes for
comfort, but she has no such passion
for "things" as often weighs down the
life of the American housewife. Drap-
cries and carpets and stuffed chairs
may be lacking In nadames house,
but excellent cooking and good temper
are pretty sure to be found there. One
notable illustration Of the domestic
virtue of the French Is to be seen In
their regard for mothers-in-law. 1t Is
not unusual to find families in friendly
rivalry for the privilege Of entertain
ing the mother-in-law, and there Is
many a household in France where
two mothers-in-law live respected and
happy, with children and grandchil-
dren. We have long imported gowns
and hats from France. 1t would be
good now to import love for the house
hold, the thrift which by skillful cook
ing contrives toothsome and nourish-
ing food from inexpensive material,
and those gentle domestic manners
which make the rooftree dear, the din
ner table pleasant, and family affec-
tion true and deep. There cannot be
an oversupply of these admirable quail
| tiles.

THE DOCTRINE OF SIN.
Bv Rev. Clarence True Wi

By Rev. Clarence True Wilson, d. ID.
Textile that sinneth against Me
wrongeth his own soul."-Proverbs
s: SO.
We're you ever stung by bee? 1t
hurt for moment, possibly for the
hour. But the bee was ruined. 1t lost
its sting and went OF to die. Such are
the consequences to every one who
stings God. He sustains so vital a re-
lation to us and has such large inter-
ests in us that any transgression of His
will is a blow at His very heart. But
He has so constituted us that the blow
reacts. 'They that regard lying vani-
ties forsake their own mercy" "He
that sinneth against me wrongeth his
own SOUL" Is 1t surprising that sin
could not be wrought without conse-
quences? Thinkest thou, o man, that
thou canst sin and never reap sins har-
vest? The Most High gave to thee a
free personality, splendid mission and
a blessed destiny; but when thy heart
was lifted up and thy spirit hardened,
thou ddst sin; and God has filled thee
with thine own ways. Thou hast in
troduced discord into His government.
Thy selfish rebellion has separated the
creature from the will of the Creator,
and instead of turning in affectionate
alteration to God as the center of the
universe thou hast established new
center self. Selfshness has bred law
lessness. Out of harmony with God
and conscience and environment, thy
soul is never at peace: 1t is like a trou-
bled sea that casts up mire and dirt.
"There is no peace" saith my God, ito
the wicked" "Be sure your sins will
find you out"
/ am old fashioned enough to believe
that man was meant for life, and not
for death, that had not sin come in,
the tree of life meant special immunity
from death. If man was created for
all he is capable of being, he was in
tended for Immortality. But what sad
havoc Sill Has udue OuT lie, says
Augustine, "is so brief and insecure
that l know not whether to call it a
dying life, or living DEATH"
What Is your life? A hand breadth
What is your life? A vapor which ap-
peareth for a season, and vanisheth
away. What are your days? They are
swifter than post, sweeping by like
weaver's shuttle, vanishing like the
ships upon the ocean.
But there is deeper death than that
of the body which sin inflicts upon the
man; there Is spiritual death in sin
The final separation from God, the only
source Of life and happiness, Is the
final curse of sin. This is necessarily
eternal. The separation of the human
spirit from God, looked at apart from
redemption, is in itself doom unre
| lieved. The sinner has in himself nc
power of self restoration to union with
| God. But thank God we are not aban
doned to this doom. IF any man sir
we have an advocate with the Father
