An easy way to wash and still have clothes of a dazzling whiteness is to warm water, to which has been added one cup of soap jelly and one cup of melted paraffin. In the morning look over the clothes and rub any soiled spots lightly with the hands. Have ready boiler of hot water, to which has been added cup of melted paraffin and one of soap jelly. Put the clothes in and boil twenty minutes; then rinse through two or three waters and hang on the line

If you are lucky enough to own any bits of real jade, or if you are the possessor of even an excellent imita tion, it is the time to bring it forth It brella handles, ornaments for the chatelaine, shirtwaist sets, slipper buckles and side combs.

Second. The fortunate discov- erers of this invaluable possess siOn--twO classes are described. The one who found it, though he sought it not. Such fortune has fallen to the lot of some in other respects. Gold was discov- cred both in California and Aus tralia by accident. Some of the most wonderful discoveries of the age were apparently by chance. Such even were living pictures, wireless telcgraphy and the tclc- phone, the power and use of steam, etc.
 So many have become the hap py pOSSrSSOr of salvation by be ing awoken to the1r awful cnndi- tion and danger by some sudden event, such as the death of a mate stricken down by some cal amity OF by some other Drovi- dencc. One of the most devoted, consecrated and earnest men | know today was awakened to his sin and selflShness by the loss of all his wealth by the dreadful financial panic of i893-i89i. In the other instance the merch- antman sought long for the pearl of great price and then gave up all he possessed to obtain t. May not this refer to those who have come under conviction and felt that longing of heart for the peace of God, for the knowledge or sins pardoncd, which led them [" seek earnestly and sometimes Tor a long lime before they found the unspcakablc blessing?
 Thank God there is such a blessed possession provided for all at a great cost, even the sac rilicc of inc Son of God. The possession is now within the reach of all and is the only real possession in life. All other things are disappointing and fade away or have to be left behind: whereas this blessing cnrichcs life, crowns old age and illumi- mates death, and will be the glory of eternity. Then, let us, like the subjects of the parablcs, sacrifice everything to become the happy poSSrsSOrS of salvation.

FOR
 STAY-A7-HOMES
Delivered by Rev. Johnson at the Congregational Church Sum-
 day Evening

There was a good congregation al the service on Sunday even ing, when the pastor, Rev. John son, conducted an earnest Srr- vice. His text was Malt. xiii: :ii- l5--"rhc hidden treasure and the pearl of great price,"
 This 18th chapter of Matthew has been called the parable chap ter, as it contains seven para blcS, three sets and one general. The first set: "Thc sOwcr of good seed" and "thc sowcr of the tares." The second: "Thc grain of mustard seed" and "thc lcavcn put in the measures of meal" The third: "The hidden treasure and the pearl of great price" The general parable: "Thc net and the fishes"
 It was the custom in ancient times to use types and stories to convey Knowledge tO people: possibly because they were sim pie and unculturrd. Thus it was necessary to call sight as well as thought into operation. Indeed such q system is now being adopted in schools and colleges. We have the kindergarlen, the system of models and undoublcd- ly the day is fast approaching when the living pictures will be used in all our schools. which are being adopted in some parts of the world already. Jesus, who was the master teacher, used this plan and drew beautiful word pictures to convey great truths to the minds of his hearers. These stories we call parablcs. A parable has been aptIy describ- cd as "an earthly story with a heavenly meaning"
 How very striking and appro- priatc were these parablcs. Could anything bc more true to life than the parable of the prod igal son? Could anything ap- peal more 10 the heart than the parable of the lost sheep, or the good Samaritan? Tn the new tes- lament we have recorded 18 par ables spoken by Jesus, all illus trating great truths and simpli- flying the exercise of noble prin- ciplcs. In our subject tonight we have first the priceless pos- session of salvation; spoken of as hidden treasure or the pearl of great price,"
 In early years before banking institutions or strong rooms and safes were thought of, treasures were hidden for safety. Possibly such q treasure was here refer red to or it may he the hidden deposits of gold, which require much labor ard often great sac rificc Co find. So with valuable pearls, men run tremendous risks by diving to great depths of the ocean to obtain pearls, thereby shortening their days. have visited the pearl diver in the hospital whose skin was like pol isbed leather with no pores open and the muscles so drawn up that tho limbs were useless, all re- sulting from diving and rcmain- ing long under water. How great was the sacrifice made by the Son of God, who plunged down into the depths of human life, sin and misery 10 obtain saliva ton for us, even at the price of the sacrifice of his own life.

but finding heat conditions not in

turned to his court DON and a in
