the greatest commercial center of the
western hemisphere, but the greatest
port of the world, The latest figures
available on the commercial activities

Animals Don't Need EYES

Animals do not depend upon their
eyesight in the same way as human
beings. Cats and dogs could get along
very well without eyes. A cat can
find her way with the aid of her
whiskers. These are the same width
as her body and connected with nerves
which cause her to feel the slightest
touch.
Dogs can he entirely guided by their
sense Of smell. Blind dogs have been
known to scent and find their way to
the most inaccessible places. Their
hearing is also preternaturally sharp.
Rats can see very little and depend
chiefly upon their noses, muscles,
touch and hearing. In the case of
most animals the senses of smell and
touch are more highly developed than
that Of sight. and they do not require
to depend upon their sight nearly as
much rs do human beings in regard to
safety. London Globe.

Gle that hath the bride is the
bridegroom. - John 3:29, t. C.
These words were spoken by the
great Baptist OF the greater Christ,
They are the bct inning of series OF
Scripture references 10 Jesus as the
Bridegroom, with the Church as HIS
Bride. That this earthly relation OF
marriage should be thus taken TO IL
lustrate the sacred relation OF Christ
to his church ought, instantly, TO i'm
press us with the tremendous sacred
ness of marriage. If we look at the
matter in this light, we shall see
some of the deep meanings OF mar
riage.
We shall see that its underlying
motive is love. Love inspired, and
love sustainS, the relationship be,
tween Christ and his Bride, AND
this ought TO be the case with ever!
twain who mate for life. Marriages
of whim, or passion, or convenience
ought not to be; that is, if marriages
are 10 produce happiness and TO help
us 10 live life in its fulncSS. Illus
bands, love your wives, even as
Christ loved the church and gave
Himself for it," "AGd let the wife
see that she reverence her husband"
This is the good, old ground OF mar
riage.
We shall see, too, that one secret
of happy marriage is the mutual
sacrifice that its love is ready TO
make. Christ gave Himself. His
body to the cross, and His soul TO be
poured out unto death, for the sake
| of His bride. He bought his bride
with his blood. And the bride OF
Christ, actuated by the bridegroom'S
life and love, responds to sacrifice
with sacrifice And if you read con
temporary life, you will see that il is
| not the sacrificing husbands and
! wives that, as a rule, seek the divorce
courts, or drag out unhappy cXiS
| fences. But. rather, is il those who
marry with the selfish purpose OF
| getting the better of risky bargain.
Lives that love unto reciprocal Sacri-
flee, are the lives that grow into
each other and honor God in this
most necessary social relationship.
We shall also see that the high
companionShip of marriage is that OF
mutual likeness and helpfuIncsS.
When God saw that it was mot good
that man should be alone" He

for him. The burden and the blcS-

old Matthew Henry says: "Woman

Adam; not out of his head to top
him, not out of his feet TO be tram

to be equal with him, under his ann
to be protected by him, and near to
his heart TO be loved by him. -
/ Alike in nature, they share The Socc.
ty and toll of each other, they aspire
TO a common destiny yonder; and
each is the others helper in all their
aspirations and efforts. This makes
marriage what God meant it TO be
