Temperance Bill Boards.

The policy of municipal corpora
tions amounting the bill boards with
posters proclaiming the evils of the
use Of drink is spreading throughout
England, where there are now more
than ninety cities following that pol
Icy. In some cases, the expense has
been borne by local temperance or
CARNATIONS or individuals, but gener-
ally by the municipality itself. In
some cases the corporation attorneys
have declared that the cities have no
statutory powers to appropriate
money for such purposes, but the
policy has generally been endorsed
as a sanitary measure.
The Congregational Church of
Great Britain is improving on tenn
perance. Forty years ago, only about
400 of its clergy were total abstain
ers. At the recent meeting of the
Congregational Total Abstinence AS
ISOLATION in London, reports showed
that out of nearly 5000 ministers,
$3.50 were known to be total abb
s~tainers.

Misrepresentation of Facts.

Professor Townsend in one of. ais
noon addresses in fremont Temple,
Boston, lately said that sometime the
new" theology people have been re-
markedly successful in giving the
impression that there are scarcely
any advocates Of primitive orthodoxy
who have standing among scholars
or thinkers, and that the higher crit
les; beyond dispute, are masters in
the educated world. Since, therefore,
the universities and schools of the
ology are supposed to represent schol-
arship, and since they are supposed
to be on the side Of the new theology,
there Is nothing to do, as we are told,
but bow to the inevitable, move on
with the advancing procession and
yield to "the drift Of scholarly opin-
ion" ..
I'm view of these conditions 1t Is
not surprising that a large number
of Christian people are in a theologi-
cal mix-up, not knowing precisely
what stand to take" said the speak
II. ut may be OF interest to show
how much, or rather how little, there
is to this tremendously imposing
thing, called. the drift Of scholarly
opinion" It was then shown that
a large majority Of the theological
schools of the United States are on
the conservative side. Orthodox
scholars and authors were mentioned,
and continuing, DR.. Townsend said:
Talk about all the schools and
all the scholars in America being
on the side Of the new theology! A
ranker piece Of Misrepresentation
than that never has been perpetrated
upon an innocent and unsuspecting
public. These men and other con-
servatives who could be. named in
whatever qualities n to be a critic
Of sacred Scriptures will rank-and
some Of them a good deal outrank
any of the American scholars and
theologians on the radical side who
in late years have been brought
prominently into notice. And in
clude on that side such men as the
late President Harper, of Chicago
University; President Hyde, Of Bow
dom; Professors Bacon, Ladd and
Curtess, of Yale, and Professor Terry,
Of Garrett. "-Christian Work and

Labor Market.

One part of the world raises an
incessant cry for more labor. The
Western States need harvest hands,
the South wants more cotton pickers
and laborers generally, the Panama
Canal Zone cannot get enough
diggers, South Africa Quarrels over
a few Chinese, Cuba seeks plantation
hands to handle its sugar crops, the
Hawaiian Islands report a never end
ing labor famine, u Pacific Coast
States are in a chronic condition OF
under supply of workmen in all en-
terprises. New England is worried
over its servant problem. Another
part of the world has so many Ia
borers that they starve in heaps. An
automatic equilibrium in human en-
ergy does not exist, and possibly one
never will.-The Springfield Republi-
can.

Shabby Carpetc.

To clean and brighten a shabby
carpet, cut an ounce of yellow soap
into small squares and make into a
lather with a pint of boiling water.
Add to this a quart Of water and one
ounce Of borax. Place the mixture
on the range, and bring it to a boil;
then remove it, and when quite cold
add an ounce each of alcohol and
ammonia and half an ounce OF
glycerine. Wipe over a small portion
of the carpet at a. time, and rub
vigorously with a clean flannel
(Which should be repeatedly turned
as it gets soiled) dipped in the mix
ture, until all tho spots are removed
and the color revived. When you
have finished you will be delighted
to find how nice your once shabby
carpet looks.-Washington Star.

Canada is making rapid progress
in the construction of her railways,
there being, according to the latest
statistics issued, 21,2S0 miles Of line
open for traffic at the end of 1906
where as ten years previously the
mileage was 1897, and in 1885

A Stove Buster.

To wipe dust from a stove without
soiling the hands take an old stock
ing, which has been discarded, place
your hand in the foot and draw the
stocking over your arm. Then turn
it back until you have folded il, over
to- half its length, thus having two.
thicknesses over the hand.
The stocking will clean every par
ticle Of dust and dirt from the stove
and your hand will be as clean after
the operation as it was before. The
stocking will, Of course, need to be
replaced from time to time.

Economic Waste of Drink.

The economic waste caused by
drink is beyond calculation. We know
little more than the values repre-
sented in the liquors and beverages
produced. In the last census year in
the United States, the strong drink
and beer produced amounted in value
to $425,504,167.
Drinks wide harvest of waste in
dulling genius, paralyzing business
initiative and running homes cannot
be even guessed.

States has by far the lowest per cap

ton, and that the use Of strong
drinks in this country is decreasing.

Horseshoe Contest in Kansas.

Amid great excitement and a large
crowd made up Of representatives Of
half the rural part Of Johnson Coun-
ty, Kan, the horseshoe pitching
championship Of the county was de-
cided at Merriam, fifteen miles north
of Kansas City. The team Of Stan
ley, Kan, defeated Merriam's pride.
The game had been the sole talk of
the blacksmith shops, the barber
shops and the general stores Of half
the villages of the county for weeks.
It is estimated that twenty oxen,
fifty head of cattle and eighteen
horses changed hands as the result
Of the contest.

Rules For Contentment.

1. Allow thyself to complain OF
nothing, not even of the weather.
2. Never picture myself to thy
self under any circumstances in which
thou art not.
8. Never compare thine own lot
with that Of another.
4. Never allow thyself to dwell
on the wish that this or that had
been or we're otherwise. than it was
or is. God Almighty loves thee bet
ter and more wisely than thou dost
thyself.
S. Never dwell GA the morrow.
Remember that it is Gods, not thine.
The heaviest part of sorrow often
is to look forward to it. "The Lord
will provide e. B. Pussy.

Sharing Cllrist's Burden.

In the New Testament much ID
saiG about suffering with Christ.
Some people are called to suffer fof
Christ, but it is still better to suf-
fer with Him. This is the way ne
are to take part in His great work.
Nearly every great work involves
much suffering. Jesus suffered even
unto death to accomplish the re-
demption of the world. His follow
ers are called in a sense tn repro
duce His life, passion and death.
This is no doubt what was In the
mind of Paul, when he said IF we
suffer with Him, we shall also reign
with Him" Willingness to suffer
with Jesus Is one of the best evil
dences that we are the children OF
God.-Refo-med Church Record.

For Kettles.

The inside of kettles should either
be dried whenever the contents have
been emptied, or they should be hung
up or stood upside down in a dry
place. A few drops Of water if ale
lowed to collect at the bottom of a
kettle, soon cause spots or rust, and
these in time generate into holes.
