Rome. Nor would He nave any~word

Rome. Nor would He have any word
of appreciation for the militarism of
to-day. He was man of peace, ex-
cept when He was face to face with
sin. He was peaceful in His attitude
toward sinners. He was militant
against their sin. Jesus was a fighter.
He carried the warfare into the enc
mics country. He could turn His
back upon the representative of or
gained wickedness. He fought sin
with no care for the cost or the con-
sequences to Himself. But He was
no quarreller. He vas therefore diff
ferent from host of His disciples.
The trouble with the church, among
other things, is this, that we quarrel
rather than fight. We seem to enjoy
a row among ourselves as much as
we fear to take up the cudgels of
truth for God and humanity and go
down to the warfare against wrong
wherever we may assail it and what
ever may be the cost. If some
churches had a coat of arms a shil-
llalah rampant would have a promi-
nent place thereupon. We need to
quit "scrapping" and begin to fight
sin. For until we cease to belabor
each other, and besiege the strong
holds of sin we shall be neither true
disciples Of Jesus nor credited among
the men who live in the busy world.
For we are called to a warfare, and
the world knows the difference be-
tween row, a sham battle and a
war.
Jesus was man of optimistic fore
sight. He had confidence. He be-
lieved what He preached. He did not
discount sin or it's power. He was
never foolish enough to deny its ac-
tuality and TIE grewsome evidences
of its activities. He was no pessimist.
He was not SO unwise as are some
contemporaneous optimists. But He
did have confidence in the future, in
the efficacy of His truth, in the suf-
ficiency of the God of ages. He was
unlike too many Christians who seem
to take delight in declaring the work
of Transforming conditions that have
become tntolerable impossible and
hopeless. And If we are true disci-
pies of Him who never despaired we
shall have to cease to doubt the ca
pacity of our truth or our Leader to
dissolve difficulties and to remove
mountains. We must be sanely hope
full.
A large outlook, catholic spirit, a
militant righteousness, an optimistic
foresight, upon the pattern out
wrought by Christ will rehabilitate
our forces and enthuse our member
ship and inspire our souls and res1r-
rect our hold as church upon the
hearts of men. And it is high time
we had them.

Pies ParalyZed Him.

Because he was unable to curb his
relish for pie Charles E. Knowlton,
seventy-tnree years old, who was
noted for his strength in pulling open
balky doors of iron safes, died yes
terday of paralysis at his home, 10
Washington avenue, Brooklyn.
He admired my pies for thirty
years before we were married." said
the widow last night, and he was
just as fond of them afterwards"
Knowlton was also greatly devoted
to outdoor sports. He recently re-
turned from a vacation at Deposit, n
Y, where he played baseball, walked
many miles every day and drove in
sulky behind a fast horse. His doc
tor vainly warned him that pie and
cake formed poor diet for man of
his age who took SO much exercise.
KnowltoR only smiled. The paralysis
resulted from gastritis.-New York

CLEANING SILK BLoUsEs.

Silk blouses can sometimes be
sponged with soap and water VIII
impunity in order to restore colors
which may have faded, but it is al
ways wisest to experiment on an odd
remnant of silk or on a small piece
which is hidden under the waistline
before subjecting the whole of the
blouse to this treatment.
If, however, it is evident that silk
will not stand an application of tepid
soapsuds, French chalk will often
have almost as good a result, says
Woman's Life. The chalk should be
spread somewhat thickly over the
surface of the silk and then covered
with a large piece of plotting paper,
when weight should be placed on
the top and the blouse left for two
or three days. this pressing effectu-
ally removing dust stains, while

Immigrants Capital.

The capital with which many i'm
migrants begin life in the New
World is so small according to gov
eminent returns, that it must be as
sumed that they come here on the
certainty of Immediate employment.
Immigrants are required to show
the money they have with them to
the immigration inspectors before
they are permitted to proceed on
their way, and the examination is
pretty rigid The statistics of immi-
grafton at the port of Boston for
one month show that the average
amount per capita possessed by i'm
migrants was only $3.50. The
wealthiest were comparatively
small number of Hollanders and
Flemings. who averaged rather more
than S73 apiece. The poorest were
the Portuguese, whose money stores
were about Sc per capita. The order
of the several races or nations on
the basis of money shown was:

second, English third, Scotch fourth.

Gods Fellowship With Need.

Notice that the voice of need is the
voice of God. That need is an ap-
peal to God, we easily believe His
tenderness guarantees His notice; but
here is another attitude of His love,
and new emphasis upon it's meas
ure. Paul hears the Macedonian cry
for help, and~he and his companions
conclude that they have been listen
ing to the voice of God. They have
not only grasped the idea that the
needy Macedonian has spoken to
God. He is somehow Gods represen-
tative-not only suppliant for God IS
bounty, but messenger to speak
God s will. And these heralds of the
cross, loosing from Troas and cross
ing the Aegean are showing loyal
obedience as well as responsive sym
pathy.
We need to learn that truth more
thoroughly. God has identified Him
self with human need. Surely the
life of the Man of Sorrows teaches us
that. 1t Is what He bids us recog-
nize in His picture of the Judgment.
'Inasmuch as We did it unto one of
the least of these My brethren, We did
it unto Me-" This is love bverpow-
ering! Every craving for food in
feeble, furnishing bodies is a con-
tinuance of His wilderness fasting;
every prison bar of every pining cap
tive counterpart of the letters of
the savage soldiery in the governors
palace; every shooting pain of every
diseased frame an addition to the
agony of the crashing nails and pierre
ing thorns on the cross. ''Ye did it
unto Me- What marvellous state
ment of fellowship!
The condemnation of the miser-
able victims of selfishness was in the
face that they had not listened to the
pleading of the hungry, suffering
Christ Now this is the lesson: The
Macedonian need is Gods cry The
response to the need is obedience to
Him. The failure to respond is re-

Glass Telegraph Poles.

At Grossalmerode, town near Cas-
sci, Germany, factory has recently
been established for the manufacture
of glass telegraph and telephone
poles.
The glass mass of which the poles
are made is strengthened by inter-
lacing and INTERVENING with strong
wire threads One of the principal
advantages of these poles, it is said,
would be their use in tropical coun-
tries, where wooden poles are soon
destroyed by the ravages of insects
and where climatical influences are
ruinous to wood. The Imperial Post
Department, which has control of
the telegraph and telephone lines in
Germany, has ordered the use of these
glass poles on one if its tracts.-Lon-

) GOLD DRESS"

How "Old Dress" scared the 1ndi.
ans in the French and Indian War
shows what a strategist can do If he
has courage. The Dress family. says
the author of "Old Schuylkill Tales"
lived in Panther Valley, Pennsylvan-
ia. Word came one day that the In
dams were headed for the valley, and
the pioneers started for place of
safety. Tho Dress family formed
part of the little caravan that turned
toward the fort, but Old Dress would
not leave his home.
He was the first settler to discover
the rich farming lands in that local.
ity. The Indians had given him the
first kernels of corn which he planted
as seed, and in turn he had shown
them how to fashion the rude farm
ing implements which he used.
Dress made his way to hillside
overlooking his home, and watched
the approach of the redskins. Smeared
with war paint and with their war
toggery on, yelling like mad, they
dashed up the defile.
What could he do single handed
against so many? His mind was
made up. Taking an extra hitch at
his rusty brown linsey woolsey trou
sers, he ran as hard as he could di-
rectly toward the murderous crew
and in full view of them, screaming
and yelling at the top of his voice.
and wildly gesticulating with his long
arms.
Come on, boys!" he yelled. With
wild signs of command he ordered
an imaginary company to close up the
defile and prevent the Indians es-
cape; the others were to surround
and destroy the enemy.
The chief understood German, as
Dress knew, for he had taught him.
The warriors believed that they were
being attacked by at least a regiment
of soldiers under command of Old
Dress, and fed, panic-stricken.
When the settlers returned to their
homes Old Dress was sitting in front
of his cabin, mending an old fish net.
The cattle had all been recovered by
him and returned to their rightful
owners. The COWS had been MIXED,
the cream was ready for the good
wives to churn, and everything was
going on as usual.
The Indians never moIested the
settlement again, and Old Dress is
hero to the descendants of those
whose homes he saved.

my little boy, when only an infant Of
three months, caught the Cuban Itch.
Sores broke out from his head to the bot
tom of his feet. He would itch and claw
himself and cry all the time. He could not
sleep day or night, and light dress is all
he could wear. / called one of our best
doctors to treat him, and his treatment did
not do any good, but he seemed to get
worse. He suffered so terribly that my
husband said he believed he would have to
die. / had almost given up hope when a
lady friend told me to try the Cuticura
Remedies. I used the Cuticura Soap and
applied the Cuticura Ointment and he at
once fell into sleep, and he slept with
ease for the first time for two months.
After three applications the sores began to
dry up, and in just two weeks from the
day commenced to use the Cuticura Rem

ment only cost me 75c., and I would have
gladly paid 800 if could not have got it

They are very convenient, among
other things, for peeling. vegetables

SEWER GAS IN HOMES.

The American Analyst gives the
following test for the detection in an
apartment of sewer gas: Saturate I'M
glazed paper with a solution. of one
troy ounce of pure acetate of lead in
eight fluid ounces of rain water; let
it partially dry; then expose in the
room suspected of containing sewer
gas. The presence of gas in any
considerable quantity soon blackens

BEDROOM . VENTILATION.

Simple bedroom ventilation may be
accomplished in several ways, as by
raising the lower sash a few inches
and putting strip of wood under it,
or better plan is that which consists
in lacking a strip of cloth or heavy
paper, ten or twelve inches in width,
across the lower part of the window.
In this way the lower sash can be
raised almost as high as the top of
the screen, and no draught will be
felt
Another method consists of piece
of wood which shall fit under the
lower sash when raised, and into
which two or more elbows are insert
ed. These elbows are usually from
five to six inches in diameter, and
bent upward, thus directing the cur
rent of air upward. The openings in
the elbows should be covered with
fine wire screens to exclude DUST

When brave men met the foe
With stout and valiant arm and flashing

And laid each villain low.

Ere he alights,
