A LITTLE KNOWLEDGE
OF Painting Requirements Will Save
Much Expense.

When oEe sees the surface Of q
house or other building scaling, or
peeling, or spotted Or blistered, or
showing other symptoms of paint dis
ease," it is evident that a poor painter
has been on the job, and that poor
paint was used-or possibly that a
good painter had been dominated by
about paint.
1t is an easy matter to be informed
on paint and painting. A complete
painting guide, including a book of
color schemes, either for exterior or
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. for all kinds
of painting,-and an instrument for
detecting adulteration in paint ma
terial, with directions for using it,
may be had free by writing National
Lead Company, 1902 Trinity Bldg,
New York City, and asking for House
owners Painting Outfit No. 40.
Then, every houseoWner should
make it point to get only we'll
known reliable brands in buying his
materials. Pure white lead is espe-
cially important, or the paint will
not prove satisfactory. The famous
Dutch Boy Painter" trademark of
National Lead Company, the largest
makers Of pure white lead, is an alb
solute guarantee Of the purity and
quality Of the white lead sold under
it. That trademark is safeguard
against paint trouble.

Eczema on Hand, Arms, Legs and

Complete Cure by cutlcura.

about fifteen or eighteen years
ago eczema developed on top of my
hand. It burned and itched SO much
that I was compelled to show it to a
doctor. He pronounced it ringworm.
After trying his different remedies the
disease increased and went up my
arms and to my legs and finally on my
face. The burning was something
terrible. went to another doctor who
had the reputation of being the best
in town. He told me it was eczema.
His medicine checked the advance of
the disease, but no further. I finally
concluded to try the Cuticura Rene

sERMoNETTE.


Apart from the incidents of
Sabbath breaking here recorded,
which has to do with Jewish his
tory alone, we have broader
question Of the observance Of the
enc day in seven as a day Of
deal.
The Jewish dispensation has
enaed, and we are no longer I'M
Ger the Mosaic law, but the eter-
nal principles which found ex-
preston in that law are as i'm
Pertant and binding to-day as
ever.
The same observance of the
Sabbath day is not Incumbent
upon mankind to-day, but the
same need of rest from secular
toll and of upbuiIding of the
soul IN Cody thought and pur-
pose Is as desirable and neces-
sary to full rounded human life
now as it was under the old
Jewish law.
Jesus freed the world from
the burden of mere Journalism of
Sabbath day observance, and re-
vealed new conception Of the
days purposes and possibilities
as God had intended them.
He broke almost every pre-
conceived notion which had
grown up around the day,
and herein was the chief source
Of complaint Of the Jewish
rulers against him, and gave
them ground to charge that he
was destroying the Mosaic law.
But Jesus said that he had not
come to destroy the law, but to
fulfill II. Not to put greater bur-
dens upon mankind, but to free
II from the burdens which in I
the name OF the law had been !
laid upon it.
Two very important decIara-
lions were made by Jesus in ref
erenee to the Lords day, the !
day of rest, and that they are !
authoritative is certain for he :
stated positively that he was !
Lord Of the Sabbath" !
From these two statements ali
necessary deductions can be (
made for the proper observance !
Of the day. (
First: "The Sabbath was made /
for man, and not man for the
sabbath"
The second is in the form Of I
question which Jesus put to his
enemies and to which there can Z
be but one answer: ''Is it law :
ful on the Sabbath days to do
good or evil? To save life, or
70 destroy III" /

THE STORY.

SsYKY 3 MUST hurry, Poncho, or else
III all the best stalls in the mar
,et place will be TAKEN" exclaimed a
dark-visaged individual to the young
man walking at his side, while at the
same time he urged on the laden
donkey in front of them.
They were on their way to Jerusa-
lem where was to be found good
market for their wares which they
had brought with them from Tyre.
ooh, we'll be there in plenty of
time" grumbled the boy, ill-naturedly.
"Yes, but we must get our tent
nitched and our goods in place to be-
Gin business on the morrow" ex-
claimed the older man, impatiently.
ii was motley throng which filed
the gate and market place of Jerusa-
lem. Traders of every description were
there and the goods they had on sale
ranged from food products down
through the list of things to wear, and
things to use in the household Bed
lam seemed let loose as the throngs
Il traders busted themselves in prepar-
ing for the business of the morrow,
and each new arrival only added to
The confusion.

is fastened back through the streets

nIe could so far forget Gods law!

closed his lips tightly with the grim,

Just One Day.

1t ought not to be hard to live well
one day. Anyone should be able to
carry his burden, or fight his battle, or
endure his sorrow, or stand at his post.
or do his work, for just one day. Any
one should be able to remember God
and keep his heart open toward heav-
en-, and to remember others in need
and suffering about him, and keep
his hand stretched out in helpfulness
for just one day. Yet that is all there
is to do. We never have more than
one day to live. We have no to-mor-
rows. God never gives us years or
even weeks; he gives us only days. II
we live each day well all our life will.
in the end, be radiant and beautiful.

Must We Convert sinners7

Dear Sisters OF the Household: How to make
lie most aud the best Of life ought to be the
great study OF the human race. I have thought
on this subject a great deal In the last few
years and / think we would fulfill our mission
IN life best by being as nearly like Jesus as
we can. .
Sometimes in this connection. II occurs TO me
20 make a comparison OF waat God could do
and OF what He does do. We all know that He
could arrest every sinner earth and convert
them Immediately. but He does not do this.
Lesrd a minister say. God is gentleman,
be does not interfere With the private affairs
Of other people"
I think that He leaves It to them. and after
a while most people turn from evil and seek
the right way OF their own accord and very
much doubt whether they ever turn any sooner
for being constantly importuned by others.
II is not duty TO reform other people, but
IL is ouf duty TO make everyone around US as
look for the good that Is in everybody and
never see the evil.
That is a beautiful custom you have in Geor
gia OF working one day for the orphans homes
and dare say results In much aid to those In
stltutionh. I looFed up Mrs Thomas favorite
passage In the Bible and think II beHuhful.
slways enjoy the conversation OF those that
love the Lord and think we do not talk OF Him
enough. The verse that has been more help to
me than any other IN the Bible is found In
James 1:5. ] hsve often been situated where
did not know what was best to do and have
found this verse "a very present help In time
OF need .-
