In the type. the goats were brought
to the Door of the Tabernacle. and
there waited for the high priest to cast

Gods acceptance of the sacrifice of the

onward the person is reckoned dead.
As the Apostle says, "Ye are dead, and
your life is hid with Christ in God"
Thenceforth the goat represents mere

dead. The New Creature is thereafter
represented in the body Of the high
priest-a member of his body.
The Pastor then carefully explained
that as the sacrifice of the bullock pre-
coded the sacrifice of the goat, and
made it possible, so in the antitype
Christ's sacrifice preceded the sacrifice
Of the Church. and made theirs posi-

The Pastor made a practical applica-
ton of his point by declaring that
whenever an experience begins to be
rather hard. the Christian is then look
ing at the things that are seen. and for
getting to look at those that are invis

who love the Lord Aey are the most
wonderful realities and bring the
greatest blessings.
Next the Pastor drew attention to the
mad rush for pleasure which charar

whether his hearers had ever known
any of them who had found genuine
pleasure. He had not. With the Chris

Christian has found an unfailing source

In conclusion. the Pastor exhorted
his audience to rejoice in the Lord. All
the consecrated should rejoice always.
not only because they know the Lord,
but because they know that by and by
the worlds eyes Of understanding Will
be opened The glorified Church will
have the pleasure of giving this Di-

COMPOSITION OF MILK
MUCH DEPENDS UPON THE BREED
OF ANIMALS USED.
Jerseys and Guernseys Produce RlchP
Milk on Which Cream Rises
Quickly and Completely 4
Hoisteins Big Producers.
CBy r. PEARsoN)


The proportion of constituents in
milk depends largely upon the kind
of COWS used. Jerseys and Guernseys
produce a rich milk, on which the
cream rises quickly and completely;
this is decided advantage to those
who wish to raise cream. If milk is to
be used whole, 1t is not always an ad-
vantage to have the cream separate
too soon. Durham and Ayrshire cows
give milk Of an average quality from
which the cream rises slowly, and on
this account they are sometimes said
to be good "milkman's cows" Hol-
stein milk usually has a small proper
ton of fat or cream, but some families
of the black and white" supply a,
product of most excellent quality The
Holstein cows are noted for producing
enormous quantities of milk.
Although these statements refer to
pure-bred COWS of the different breeds
named, they also apply to grade ami
mails having one-half or more of the
blood of these breeds. All cows of
the same breed do not give milk of
LILO odlAS III ldSL, lu0 COulpO6l-
ton of milk from cows of the same
breed may vary as much as that from
cows of different breeds. AS a rule,
however, similarly bred cows, under
like conditions, give about the same
quality of milk at corresponding
times during the period of lactation.
1t is popular notion that the feed
given a COW influences the quality of
her milk more than anything else;
but if a COW in normal condition gives
a rich milk at one period her milk

unless she is badly neglected or dis
eased Feed has a much greater in
tiuence upon the quantity of milk pro-
duced than upon its quality
The first milk given after calving is
called colostrum. 1t contains a large
proportion of albuminoids and is
somewhat laxative. 1t is not fit for
food. In natural milk small amount
