leather for home run and would have
made good on it if the ball had not hit
the bench. He met it at third on it's

swine eat. They are thought peculiar
because of their interest in spiritual
things. They are misunderstood by
their best earthly friends. They must
learn that in their wanderings along
the highways of science and world
religion they Will never get satisfac-
ton. There is famine in every de-
nomination, in every part of the world
No one thinks of looking to the Bible
for refreshment and strength The
Higher Critics of all denominations
have branded it unreliable The pro-
fessors in all the great colleges are
repro batting the Bible and openly
laugh at the thought of finding there
either bread for the hungry or water
for the thirsty.
This is the very picture given in our
context. They shall wander from sea
to sea, from the north even to the
east; they shall run to and fro to seek
the Word of the Lord and shall not
find it. In that day shall the fair vfr-
gins and the young men faint for
thirst (Amos viii, II, 49,.
The Bread of Life and Water of Life
These hungry hearts must learn that
there IS only the one satisfying por-
ton under the sun-the living and true
God, and Jesus Christ whom he has
sent to be the Bread of Life for the
world, and the message of grace from
his lips to be the Water of Life. 1t is
ours to call the attention of this Truth
hungry class to the Great Teacher who
declared, My flesh is food indeed and
my blood is drink indeed; except We
eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and
drink his blood. We have no life in
YOU (John ri, 55, 53). But scarcely
will the intelligent of our day hearken
to these words, so prejudiced are their
minds by the fallacies which becloud
their understanding. They see not,
neither do they understand the good
ness of God.
Why is this? Why are these Bibles
in millions of houses. Catholic and
Protestant, neglected? Because the
people know not that the bread of life
and the water of life which they seek
are hidden therein. Why is this? We
answer that conditions were very
much the same in Israel at the time of
our Lords First Advent. The exp1a-
nation he then gave is applicable
now. He said, Eye do make void the
Law of God through your traditions
the traditions of the ancients'
(AIarl vii, ID; I Peter i. 1S). So now,
the traditions handed down from our
forefathers really make void, meaning

An Brooklyn Tabernacle, New
M m York, preached twice here
M today in our largest audito-
rum. He is well known
here and had fine audiences
We report his discourse from the
above text as follows:
Today this prophecy is fulfilled in
our midsti notwithstanding the fact
that during the past century Bibles
have been printed and circulated
among the people by the million, and
notwithstanding the fact that educa-
ton has become general SO that rich
and door, old and young, have the
ability to read Gods word. neverthe-
less We are in the midst of the very
famine specified by the prophet. It
seems almost incredible that we
should be furnishing now with Bibles
in our homes, when our sanity fore
fathers did not famish, though educa-
ton was limited. The secret lies in the
fact that increasing intelligence on ev-
cry hand has awakened our reasoning
faculties along religious lines, and the
result is the gnawing of hunger in our
hearts Our hearts and our flesh cry
out for a living and a true God-a
God greater than ourselves-more Just,
more powerful. more loving: Feeling
our own mpotency, we more than
ever feel our need of the Friend above
all others with a love that sticketh
closer than a brothers.
Consequently we cannot find the
rest and refreshment and comfort
from 1.-THE scriptures that our fore
fathers derived. Consequently the
young men ana the purest Of heart in
the world are repelled by the religion
of the past as represented in the
creeds of all denominations. They
are hungry for the Truth. They are
thirsty for the refreshment which they
need. intellectually many are looking,
wandering from sea to sea desiring
the bread of life and the water of life.
Scanning the creeds of all denomina-
lions they find them practically alike
as respects theories of eternal repro
baton and damnatior for all except
the elect the saints. They are faint
for lack of spiritual food and drink.
They even look to the heather and
examine the Theosophy of India, the
Buddhism of japan and the Confu-
cianisnn of China, seeking for some sat
isfying portion of Truth. These are in
some respects like the prodigal SON

swinish content with the husks of

An Old OIother-in-Law story.
The Bible contains two outstanding
mother-in-law stories, and both are in
striking contrast to those nowadays
commonly circulated. One is the idyll
mortal pieces of literature. The other
is the one given in the present les
son, of Peters wife's mother sick of
the fever. Jesus touched her hand,
and ministered unto them
No cruel, heart scorching jest about
that Here vas a mother, loved by
both daughter and daughters hus-
band. She bad an honored and use
full place in the home, and, as is the
wont of mothers everywhere, she was
foremost in helpful service. Her ILL
ness did more than interfere with the
running of the simple household ma
chinery; it put sore burden upon the
heart of the great apostle. So he led
the Master to his home-a home, per-
haps, where Jesus had often enjoyed
mother. Gladly did he heal her. and
great was the rejoicing over the restor-
alton. The mother showed her thank
fulness, woman fashion by ministering
to the needs Of her guests.
\ Man Meeting His Mission.
An evening scene, rare and remark
able, is pictured in the next verse. 1t
was the close of the Sabbath. Devout
Jews were free to labor. Ceremonial
restraints were laid aside for a week.
So they came thronging to the home
where Jesus sojourned, bringing to
him all the afflicted ones of the COM
munity. 1t was a sore tax upon one
spiritually straitened at the close of
a busy Sabbath. Yet Jesus failed
them not. He never regarded himself,
but gave needy humanity first claim
upon his powers. Therefore he healed
all that were sick
That was his mission. He came to |
make. up whatever was lacking in hui
mainly. That he might serve men, |
he left heaven. He was not in the |
world to be comfortable or prosperous |
or free from WEAKNESS and pain. AS |

There are no untraveled roads in
human experience for Christ. He
walked a solitary way where man had
never been before; and he also trod
all the familiar highways of life. He
shared every mortal experience, that
he might be the sympathizer and
friend of everybody on earth. No
matter how dark the night of sorrow
and perplexity, no matter how heavy
the burden, Jesus knows. He is quail
flied by his own human experience to
be guide and counselor. And the great
est reward of trouble is that it often
leads to friendship with Christ.

The most confident person is often
baffled by life. 1t is mysterious and
unexpected Like an unruly horse,

lived have confessed themselves out
done by life. The wise Bacon made a
failure of it, To go through the world,

AMERICAN DOLLS NOW.
With Heads that are Tough and Faces
 that are lifelike.

China dolls were once owned by all children. and such dolls are still by many. Then there were dolls with heads made of mixture of plaster and papier mache and dolls with wax heads and then again other were dolls heads such as are called, for short, bisque, meaning biscuit. signifying that they were. like China. of a clay ma terial, but baked ungiazed. Dolls'heads of these various materials are still made and still sold in great numbers everywhere. except that not so many wax dolls are now sold in this country,
 for the reason that they don't do well here fin account of variations in the i temperature.
 All these various dolls-the China doll
 that broke or chipped easily and the papier mache doll that might have jag
 ged pieces knocked out of it and the wax doll whose nose was easily bruised and the harder bisque dol!-all were
 made in Europe and the great majority in Germany. from which country in fact the bulk of the worlds dolls still comes Now however. there is made in this country. with it's head Of a mater
 
 ling that of biscuit head. an Ameri- can doll that in appearance compares
 most favorably with any imported, while there is also claimed for the American doll the merit of indestruc- tibiIity. You can drop this doll with out breaking it.
 The great majority of the worlds dolls are still made with the tradition al dolls face. but in Europe lately they have taken to making what they call character dolls. with faces true to a type, and they have been making also some other dolls heads with life-like faces instead of dolls faces. Of the dolls produced in this country some are made of the doll face type. for which there is still a demand that is uni Versal, but there are now made here many character dolls. as EskimOs. In- dians. Dutch boys and so on. with faces of their severa! types, and there are noS produced here in dolls that are just dolls. many that are made with most natural life-like faces, the heads in numerous instances having been modelled after living children. Among American dolls of this sort you find joyous. lauging babies and smiling old CT children so life-lke in appearance that they are a pleasure to look upon.
 These American dolls are produced in many sizes and styles and in great variety of attire, and they are finding ready market.

NOTICE TO MEMBERS OF WA TER USERS ASSOCIATION-Today

I is the last day on which transfers of property may be made before the annual election of tine Water Users association, if the new owners are to be given d vote at this years cleo ton, for tonight the books will be closed so far as entering transfers are concerned. until after the mak- ing up of the great register for the election. To put it another way, any new land owner of record from a date later than today cannot vote at the coming election. It will, therefore, be well for those who are deliberating on purchases to settle the question promptly if they de- sire to participate in the naming of new officers for the association. Pc titions have been sent to the vari- ous districts for signatures nominat

It is be- lieved that some do not understand that there is one copy provided free by the association to each member of it, and that it can be had on ap
 plication at the office of the sec retary It is very desirable that each member should secure his copy and read it.
