DoNT's FOR cHURCHMEN.

Don't complain of your church du-
ties. Where love is one forgets labor.
Don't claim that you are already
saved. Character begins In the cradle
and ends in the grave.
Don't try to hug to yourself the
blessings you receive. You cannot keep
the Joy you will not share.
Don't profess what you do not feel.
Your sympathtes express more than
YOUR words, and determine the breadth
of your life
Don't pray God to shower blessings
upon you when they are already fall
ing. and are yours il you are in condi-
ton to receive them
Don't try to meet God i'm your church
only. If you cannot find Him every
where. you will find him nowhere The
success of your search depends on the
way you search.
Don't shed tears when your attention
is called to suffering The tear of pity
is a good thing only when 1t is accom-
panied by effort to relieve suffering.
Don't expect heavenly music In every
temple The Angels song can best be
heard where hearts are attuned to gen
uine praise The angels never sang in
costly churches.

Men shook their heads at this.
Those in business were reluctant at
such a time to make themselves con-

street Johnson called the flag bearer to
his side, placed himself at the head Of
the half-formed procession, ordered the
band to play national air, and start

crowd on the street fell in behind him,
and 1t grew larger and larger as it

FAITH FOR THE FUTURE.
By Henry F. Cope

By Henry f. Cope.
By faith Abraham when he was
called to go out - went out not
knowing whittier he went-Hebrews
lis
You cannot tell much about mans
faith by his willingness to deal in
futures without any foundation in fact
And yet no man is ready to face the
future unless his heart is nerved by a
high and worthy faith. This alone can
give strength to look down the coming
days and to take up their tasks.
None of us can know what these new
days hold for us; fear readily con-
jures up pictures Of disaster. But be-
cause of certain sublime condolences we
hold we Danish our fears, shake off
our sloth and gladly step out into the
unknown and untrodden country Of to-
morrow.
Faith is the force of all the ages. It
accounts for the past; it enters and de-
termines the future. Because certain
men in days gone by believed certain
things intensely; because they were
thrilled by great visions, by glorious
ideals, history was wrought out in the
forge of their convictions, under the
hammer of their wills.
No great things are done except by
the power of faith, under glowing
hopes and compelling convictions. 1t is
her faith in her boys future that makes
the mother willing to suffer, keeps her
patient, that buoys up the father in
the strife and WEAKNESS of life. No
man or woman is doing anything that
makes the world richer for mere bread
and butter; some purpose and vision is
behind the worthy work.
It is because somehow we believe,
no matter how we may phrase the be-
lief, that destiny is behind this strange
weaving we call life that we are con-
tent to seem to be the shuttles jerked
hither and thither. We bear the ills
Of to-day because we dimly see the
glorious goal of the good of all. We
do q full days work only as we see
somehow an eternal wage.
1t may belong to few of us to be
hera1ded as heroes, and the judgment
of history may confer on none the mar
tyrs crown, but the heros JOY and the
martyrs glory are in the heart of

RiDenin~ Green Tomatoes.

Often when frost comes there are
many tomatoes ON the vines that are
nearly full grown, but that have not
yet ripened enough to send to market.
1 have picked such tomatoes and put
them in a cool, dark place to rfpen
slowly and sent them to market when
the supply had run low and prices run
high, says a writer in New England
Homestead. But for home use a bet
ter way is to pick the smaller ones
from the vines and then hang up the
branch in the cellar, darkening the
windows and keeping the place cool.
They will ripen slowly, and one may
indulge in ripe tomatoes in January,
when those grown in a dollhouse and
not as large or any better flavor are
selling at % cents a pound or more.
Try it.

SHORT METER SERMONS.

Our lives are the lips OF the Most
High.
Only coward win hide behind his
conscience.
Your superiority does mot depend on
your PEDESTAL
Self is the only thing that really can
break love ties.
Religion is the touch OF the infinite
on all our affairs
An honest message never has trouble
finding hearers
1t takes more than headache cures
to set the heart right.
The only worthy living thing Is that
which puts the soul on top.
A cross disposition is no evidence of
bearing the divine cross
No great deeds are done without the
doing of many little details
No man increases his own good repu-
tation by stealing another's.
When a man boasts Of his courage he
is giving it absent freatment.
Society has its temptations, but they
are as nothing to those Of solitude.
Preach the pleasures Of piety and
people willingly win bear its pains.
You might be "a walking theological
seminary and still be travelling the
wrong road

A Saving Spirit.

Most soldiers are only too glad Of
light burdens on a march. Not so I'm
Gle Robert" His bump of acquisitive-
ness overbalanced all inertia, and his
muscles responded readily to the call Of
possession. J. A Munroe, in "Remin-
iscences Of the Rebellion tells how the
old soldiers knapsack was lightened.
The officers of the battery reported
to me that Uncle Robert had about a
cart load Of old trash, and that they
were unable to make him get rid of any
part OF 1t. He had an itching for pick
ing up anything which he thought
might, under any circumstances come
into play.
l directed the sergeant to bring I'm
Gle Robert up with his knapsack. He
reported, carrying that article and a
huge bundle Of traps tied up in a blan-
ket Never was such a miscellaneous
lot of stuff put into so small a space
before or since. There was almost ev-
erthing in the way of small notions !:
shoe strings, socks of all sizes, and old
clothing of every description.
Perhaps the funniest thing of all was
an old cast iron cook stove which he
had come across in some deserted
house, taken to pieces and carefully
packed among the clothing.

into the fire, a proceeding which nearly
broke the old mans heart, but which

everyone VINO boldly reaches UP to and
lives out the highest he conceives, for
he will not do that without sacrifice
and pain on his side nor without en-
riching mankind ON the other.
The largest faith may be manifest
i'll the 1owliest places When all the
work of the ages appears, when the
weaving of the centuries is turned
with it's finished side towards us, we
may see that the man who has laid
the brick or fed the furnace or the
woman who has washed and cooked
and tended the little ones, doing these
things for love, has shot the most glow
ing colors into the great fabric.
1t is not the thing you do so much
as the spirit in which you do 1t that
makes it great or small. Faith de-
termines this spirit, for faith is that
which fashions the ideal Of the one we
love, the ideal we serve and for which
we joyfully suffer. The prophet whose
burning words we cannot forget lives
by the faith in a vision broad and
sweeping; but not less Is the faith OF
the rumble toiler who lives each day
by the vision of his home and fireside
Nor is this all, 1t is faith that
draws on life's invisible sources OF
power and refreshing; it is faith that
finds inner contact with the Invisible.
How empty is life If 1t hold nothing
but things; how hungry grows the
heart fed only on cold facts. For each
day as it comes we need to be able to
draw on the deep springs Of the water
Of life, the springs from which our IA
Tiers drank and found strength to lay
the foundations of our day.
Faith is not the blind confidence that,
somehow, Providence will send us daily
bread 1t is the faculty by which the
heart eats Of the bread Of heaven, by
which it comes into fellowship with the
great and immortal OF all ages by
which it walks with Jesus of Nazareth
and every spirit like His and learns
to read life as love and law and see II
as leading to eternal good

Winterinr Cahhape

One OF the simplest ways of keeping
cabbage is to store in an orchard mr.
some sheltered place, often alongside
fence which has been made tight by
liberal use of straw The cabbages
are stored with their stems on and are
placed head down and as close together
as possible. Two or three tiers are
often made, the heads of the second
tier being placed between stems of the
lower, and so on the piles being made
OF any width and length desired The
whole is covered with leaves salt grass
hay or straw and a little soil, rails,
brush or litter. Small unstable heads
when stored in this way in November
will continue to develop during winter
and frequently sell as we'll as any in
February. Small quantities may be
stored by blowing out two or three fur
rows ten or twelve inches deep on a
well drained site and placing the heads
with their stems up as close together
as possible. Some prefer to lay them
but one or two thick, while others will
pile them UP two to two and a half
feet high, bringing them to a point.
The pile is then covered with straw,
salt grass hay or a thin layer of straw
and then several inches of soil. They
are stored before freezing, and when
the soil covering them is frozen it may
be covered with strawy manure or any
other litter to keep the soil frozen I'M
til the cabbages are needed for sale.

SYMBOL FOR OUR ADVANCE.
By Rev. Geo. D. SparE

By Rev. Geo. D. Sparks.
Take up the ark of the covenant and
pass over-Joshua 3 :6
The long journey in the wilderness
Is over; the endless stretches of sand
will haunt the tired eyes Of the pill
grims no longer. Beyond the swiftly
gliding river lies Canaan-the Land of
Promise.
Joshua is a born leader of men, and
as such knows what they will do if
appealed to in the right way. The
River Jordan flows between the Prom
ised Land and his followers. 1t must
be crossed. With the same feeling that
afterward animated Douglas to take
from his breast the jeweled heart of
the dead Bruce and fling it over the
heads Of the advancing foe, shouting
Flight, my men, for the heart Of
Bruce" So Joshua, with the deep re-
ligiOus consciousness of Jew, gives
the order to carry forward the ark
Of the covenant No one of his follow
ers will dream of tagging behind when
nc BEES Illdl SdCISO Sy1nU III HULL
And So following in the footsteps Of
the priests, the people, old and young,
cross the Jordan and enter upon new
phase Of their national life.
The parallel between our case, as we
stand on the threshold Of a new year,
and the Jews on the eve of their enter
ing Canaan, is SO apparent that 1t can
be seen at once. AS the tired wander
ers from Egypt stood facing the Prom
ised Land, so do you and l stand facing
1908
How are we going to commence our
journey into the new year? Joshua,
though he lived long, long ago, and
though he was but leader of a mob of
liberated slaves, can show us the way.
The captain Of the Jewish host sent
forward the ark of the covenant. We
who are children Of the larger hope can
do nothing better than to send for
ward into the new year the cross of
Christ. Why? Because only by the
power of the cross can we hope to pass
successfully through the trials and
temptations and to overcome the kings
of passion and selfishness which so
surely lie waiting for us in the next
twelve months.
1t must appeal to nearly everyone,
this ending Of an old year and the be-
ginning of new one. A man must be
dull indeed if it awakens no thoughts
of larger life, more consecrated
manhood, a more devoted discipleship.
The past, let US remember, is dead /;
the future is always alive 1t holds
aloft in it's strong right hand the morn
ing star of hope and whispers to each
child Of man: ut is never too late to
mend''
Let us face the new year with brave
hearts and better determinations,
placing before us as we advance the
cross of Christ, believing that in pro-
portion as we are loyal to this symbol
shall we have strength given us to en-
dure hardness as good soldiers of the
Master, patience to suffer without CIV
ing way to despair, sorrow and misfor-
tune, and spiritual courage SO that we
can come through every temptation tri-
umphant and unafraid.

Celery Stored in Cellars.

Where celery is stored in cellars the
temperature should be kept low and
plenty Of ventilation maintained. The
warmth and dampness of the ordinary
cellar have a tendency to cause the eel
cry to decay, but these conditions can
frequently be overcome. Celery will
readily absorb any odor that may be
present in the atmosphere of the stor-
age place and care should be taken to
provide sanitary conditions. The plants
should have most of their roots at
tached, and a bed Of moist sand in
which to set them should be provided.
