The Changing Mantle.

The change and ilux which mark
the universe have never been more
striklngly set forth than in the in
spired words of the Epistle to the
Hebrews. The heavens and the
earth, says the writer, are to perish;
they all wax old like garment, they
are rolled up as an abandoned man
tie, they are changed for something
else. These facts are incontestable.
The universe is perishing-chang.
ing.
Science confirms this. Perish
wax old-change," ii is almost a
scientific vocabulary. "The sun, u
said the late Lord Kelvin, "ls an in
candescent mass, cooling" The moon
"a cinder." Many stars are begin
ming their career; many are complet-
ing It; for many 1t is over" On our
own planet change is marked every
where Seas are where land was;
land is where oceans we're. An ice
age is followed by a temperate one.
In the world OF men, too, all change.
Countries rise and fall. In one age
race is dominant, in the next 1t is
dependent.
Contemplation Of the passing order
has made many men pessimists. But
to the apostle and to all Christians
such change and decay breed opti-
mism. All creation is conceived as
a garment of the living God, which
has its fashion for a time, and then
having fulfilled its purpose, is
changed for another God wove the
garment. He wears it; He Will
change it when 1t pleases Him. II
is a triumphant note that is struck
"Thou remainest; Thou are the
same; Thy years shall not fall" The
souls attention is fixed, not upon
the perishing garment, but upon the
unchanging wearer.
There is no chance about creation
Before 1t, God was; when the uni
verse Is worn out, He will be. But
best of all, He Is with us now. 1t Is
notable that this buoyant note Is bor'
rowed by the writer from Psalm
1902, and boldly applied to our Lore
Jesus Christ.
Here is our hope-the Unchang
ing One has visited us. The worlt
has seen Him; He is not an abstrac
ton, He is a living Person, whose
heart we know. Is 1t surprising tha
the Christian is a man of unconquer
able hope? Into the New Year HI
may take with him the precious word
Thou remainest." Whatever els'
passes or changes, Christ remains
the same. To be attached to thi'
passing order alone is to invite bit
terness, to be condemned to see YOU
years fail, your friends slip from you
ali coming under the influence o
change. But to these who know
Christ as their own, the new yea
can bring nothing but 5oy.--Londoi

Broiled Shoulder of Lamb.

Have you ever tried broiling a
shoulder of lamb instead of roasting
It? Here is the way an English.
woman. who knows all there is to
know about cooking mutton, does II
and declares 1t is delicious.
II choose a shoulder of lamb that
is young and small. In buying lamb
see that the kidney fat is abundant
semi-transparent and clean and there
is no softness or discoloration, which
shows the meat to be on the verge Of
spelling.
PUT the roast in a moderate oven
for about half an hour. Use as little
water in the pan as will prevent burn
ing.
take 1t out and rub both sides
with melted butter, black pepper and
a dash of cayenne and little lemon
juice. Broil over clear and mod
crate fire until well done.
Serve either with brown gravy OF
sauce piquante. The latter is nice
when you use the lamb for late sup.

tatoes.
"To make the sauce put one ounce
of butter, three ounces of water, a
tablespoonful OF vinegar, quarter OF
a teaspoonful of -four, yolk of one
egg and little stock into saucepan
and place on a good fire. Stir till
thick, but do not let it boil.

in slowly a teaspoonful of lemon

nravely protested Against AlcohoI.

One American physician whose
great name gave weight for fifty
years to the fight against alcohol was
the late Nathan g. Davis, dean OF
the Medical School of Northwestern
University, Chicago. He was as
great in principle, and in the cour-
age of his convictions as he was in
medical standing. Well would 1t be
for public health and morals were
there more physicians like him! He
persisted in keeping before the medi-
cal profession the dangers to life of
free recourse TO alcoholic liquors in
the treatment of disease, and he
proved the superiority of non-alco-
holic medication by the small death
rate which resulted when alcohol was
not used in fevers, pneumonia, and
various other disorders. AS a med
ieal teacher for years, he had great
influence, and many of his students
accepted his views to their own great
advantage and doubtless to the saw
ing of many lives.

When Charles Babcock came to

where he purchased a lot 1t SO hap
pened, too that what few residences
were in that vicinity surrounded his
place-houses to the east and west,
north and south Of him.
Naturally, when the town was still
young, there was much speculation
among the other residents regarding
the manner Of architecture Mr.. Bah
cock would adopt In building his new
home, and each Of his immediate
neighbors made the demand that,
whatever the architecture. the house
should face in his particular direc-
tion.
They we're all mighty nice people,
said Babcock recently in explaining
why he had built the round house,
"and not desiring to disappoint any
Of my neighbors, just concluded to
build it round, so that 1t would face
