A USEFUL LITERARY WORK
Good Literature and Adjustment for

tlcino Combination.

It was hard work selling books The
volumes, one Of which the agent had
70 carry with him as sample, were
very bulky and heavy. and nobody
ssemed to want them. But the agent
was persistent fellow, and even the
stubborn Mrs. Butts could not send
him away unheard.
I'VE have all the books. we can use, !"
she was saying, ''and we really can't
afford any more reading matter. Why
I haven't even opened the second vol
ume Of that Roman History you sold
hs last spring. Now. If you we're sell
Ing one Of those adjustable ironing
boards :.
.:1'vs got Just the thing" said the
agent, cheerfully. There are IL
books in this set and you can use
either one or two or three, and SO on
up to six to tilt your board any way
you want to. And between whiles
when your iron is heating you have
good literature. right at hand

FAMOUS OLD LONDON BRIDGE
Men Whose. Names viii Live In His
tory Dwslt and Worked on
the Structure.

!. For centuries Old London bridge.
with its double row Of houses, was
Ithe home Of generations who lived
and traded over the Thames waters.
Holhein lived and painted there; Os-
borne the prentice lad leaped through
window in the house Of his master, Sir
William Hewett, to the rescue OF Sir
Williams daughter, who had fallen in
to the swollen food of the river be-
low, and BY winning her for his wife
laid the foundation Of the ducal house
;of Leeds. Crispin Tucker had his
shop on the bridge. to which Pope and
Swift and many another outhor Of fame
made pilgrimages to purchase books
and gossip with the waggish shop
keeper. Crocker's dictionary was
printed "at the Looking Glass on Lon
don Bridge" and gigantic corn mills
dominated the south end Of the struc-
turs, not many yards from the won
derful Nonsuoh House. hugh wooden
pile with turrets and cupolas brought
from Holland. :, Such in brief outline
was the London bridge which linked
the twelfth with the eighteenth CEN
tury. and which, when 1t was on its
last tottsring, legs, was. removed to
give place to Its fine successor of
our day, the stone in which is said
TO be nearly double that employed in
building ST. Paups Cathedral.

FIr.. Postage stamps.

The postage stamp made its first ap-
pearance In 1889, Credit for its inven-
ton was due to- James Chalmers, a
printer Of Dundee who died in 1858.
England adopted the adhesive stamp
under royal decree on December 21.
1889. and issued the first one for pub
lie use. on May 8. 1910. About a
year later the stamp was introduced
into the United States and soon after
ward came into use in Bavaria, Bel
GUM and France.
r. The machine for perforating sheets
Of stamps was invented and patented
BY Henry Archer in 1s47. The Eng
lish postal authorities would take no
stock in 1t for some time. but G. F.
Muntz. member Of parliament for
Birmingham. made such a firm stand
for Its adoption that on August 5, 1853,
the house Of commons appropriated
$4,000 for the purchase of the patent
and soon afterward perforated stamps
came into general use.

The Sin Of Shaving.

One Of the severest sects Of Old Be
levers in Russia has issued mani
festo directed against the "noxious
evil Of shaving and cutting the beard.
This heretical custom has. 1t is stated,
been spreading among Old Believers
during the last 80 years.
Shorn men and women with clipped
boards come to church. kiss the holy
cross and the holy icons. and are ap-
parently unconscious that they are liv-
ing In q state of habitual deadly sin.
To mako them realize the abominable
nature OF their criminal vanity 1t is
now ordered that II shorn man

that the chu, h will not provide a
grand wedding with singing and cere-
monies unless he, repents.

An Evening of Healing.

There is no record of the number of
those that were healed on that eventful
evening But in such community there
must have been a great multitude, old
and young, racked with pain, burning
with fever, tortured and hopeless in
many instances. And He healed all that
were sick" What significance there is
in that word ALI There is no malady,
physical, intellectual or spiritual that
battles the skill of the Divine Physician.
What a night of gladness was that that
settled down on Capernaum, What joy
in the home of the eper: what gladness
and wonder in the dwelling of the GEN.
turion. And the home of Peter where
the woman is set free from the burning
fever and restored to sacred ministries:
and cut. far and away by the shore of
the lake, over the plain. and up the
mountain side there was health and hap
piness
; We have said that all the miracles were
there is a sense in which the statement
needs to be modified. The seventeenth
verse points US back to the fifty third
chapter of Isaiah. This Is the explana-
ton of it all. Himself took our nf1rm-
tiles, and bare our sickness" At the
root of all the suffering of the race is
sin. In the presence of sin, He suffered
not merely sympathetically; but, in a
sense. yicariOusly also. Even where He
saw the effect OF sin, and while He was
giving health to the sufferer. He was,
somehow, bearing the burden of the sin
that caused it. He was wounded for
our transgressions,' and bruised for
our iniquities.''

Healing of the Leper.

Leprosy was loathsome and viru-
lent disease. 1t was believed TO be IN
durable. An authority upon the SUBJECT

tagious, but only by close personal con-
tact Although leper in the street Is
no danger to the passer-by, he must, IN
his home. be a danger to his family, and
no other disease reduces human being
for so many years to such hldeous

strict i'm its dealings with lepers. When

Method of Healing.

The method of healing is beth i'm
pressive and instructive. I, was not law
full for an untanted one TO touch a leper.
The reason is that perfectly healthy men
and women are rare. With most Of us
there is going on a constant struggle be-
tween the life and death forces within
us. Contact with a diseased fellow may
give the preponderance to the death
forces, and may end our life. But one
full of health might saunter through
every lazar house Of earth and come
forth untainted. Christ was such one.
His physical. intellectual and moral
natures were flawless. He could put His
hand upon the oozing sores OF the re-
pulsive leper and be unframed.
But. beyond that there was In Him an
infinite supply Of health with which to
meet the needs OF every sufferer. He
healed others by pouring into them life
and health from Himself. the divine foun-
tain. His life met their disease: and the
living stream swept away the weakness
and corruption, and the man was made
whole. duke, SAG. And Immediately
his leprosy was cleansed' What power
there is in Christ's IL wills" And yet
they are never Numbered. 1t is as when
he wakes the world by the light of day
or resurrects the cold earth by the glores
of the spring: this healing was
wrought, quietly, Immediately, perfectly.

Healing the Centurion's Servant.

Capernaum was by the sea Of Galilee.
and 1T was on the highway from Assyria
to Egypt. 1t was therefore port of reve-
nue. The place was garrisoned by
hundred Roman soldiers. over whom was
a centurion. 1t CHANGED that favorite
servant of this centurion was sick of
the palsy. Matthew says that he was
'grievously tormented': Luke says
ready to die G:2,. The centurion was
not Jew; but it is probable that long
residence in Palestine had made him ia
mliar with the religious teaching of the
Jews. He came SO to admire their doc
trine that he built them a synagogue.
Luke, whose account Of this incident is
more particular than is that of Matthew,
tells us that. at the request of the CEN
turion, delegation of the Jewish elders
came to our Lord and entreated Him on
behalf of the servant Jesus consented,
and Immediately started to go to the CEN
turions house. But learning of His ap-
proach, the centurion went forth to meet
Him With rare humility this centurion
protested that he was not worthy to re-
ceive the Master beneath his roof. This.
he declared. was the reason that he had
not gone in person to ask the aid of this
Wonderful Healer. And then. with a
faith as stupendous as il was unusual, he
declared that with Christ there was no
such thing as distance. He was the ever
present. But speak the word only, and
my servant shall be healed
