me in such a condition that my life
was despaired Of.

that coffee was daily putting me back

Postum, and against my expectations l
gradually improved in health until for
the past or months l have been
entirely free from nervousness and
those terrible sinking, weakening
spells of heart trouble.
My troubles all came from the use
of coffee which l had drunk from
childhood and yet thev disappeared

There was only one thing wrong with
this man, he was by no means the
worst in Capernaum. A withered hand
is not so bad as leprosy. But the man
was helpless. Tradition says he was

And if your right hand is withered you

Reaiinq.

How simple is the command to the
man. Stand forth. Christ met the
man on his lowest level taking him
Just as he was. No change. no i'm
provement, and no new feeling was
asked-nothing. except to act at once,
and because Christ babe It, Stand
forth. The man could do that, and he
did. 1t seemed like a simple thing,
and so it was, but also it was the step
which made healing possible. You
cannot save yourself, but you can take
the first step which brings you into
the presence of Jesus. OF course Sa-
tan says, Do not stand forth: the
crowd will laugh at you. and then Je
sus will deceive you. Stand forth.
You can do it, and you must.
Stretch forth thine hand. But that
is impossible, you say. But the only
way to health was the obedience OF
faith Christ saves by the importation
of power, but with the concurrence Of
human effort. The man could not
stretch forth his hand-but he did it
because he took Jesus at his word.
Not waiting for feeling in the with
cred hand. not even most earnest pray
ing. Just courage to act at Christs
command. to act without feeling. or in
fiat opposition to It And he did so;
and his hand was restored whole as
the other"
AS they went they were Cleansed.
1t is a splendid illustration of the obed
fence of faith BY this faith we lay
hold of the Savior's might. Power is
limited to obedience
Stretch forth thy hand. No argu-
ment, just obedience. Just trust Jesus
absolutely, rely wholly upon him. He
knows what needs to be done-and he
will do it. Have you dared to go out
from the presence OF Christ, to whom
you have told all your need, with his
promise in your ears, and believed
that what he said would come to pass.
Christ could raise dead bodies, but
dead souls must be willing In the day
of his power. His righteousness re-
maineth forever. 0 man with the
w!thered hand this is your hope and
your help-"Ha sent his word and
healed them"

Hope.

Christ's gracious presence brought
sure hope to that otherwise helpless
sufferer. So far as the record goes,
Christ's gracious Intervention was I'M
solicited. But he was there to feel for
and help, and heal the despairing. Do
YOU not remember the man at the pool
of Bethesda? When Jesus saw him he
said, Wilt thou be made whole? He
seeks out the sick, the sinful, the sore
distressed. He knows about the sheep
that is lost, and he goes after it until
he finds it, The sinner may be con-
tent in his sins, but the Savior seeks
the sinner-blessed be his name. That
is my star Of hope in the dark night
of nv life: that is the comfort rs my
hour of sorrow; that is my JOY when
know that sin is sapping and will de-
stroy my soul. But God commendeth
his love toward us in that while we
we're vet sinners Christ died for u.s."
Thank God for one in whom we may
hope. He is here, Just now, facing us.
and for the very same purpose. He
detects human incompleteness; he
says, I'm me is thy hope"
NV hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus blood and righteousness:

AMERICANS LIKE WALNUTS.
More Consumed Last Year Than VIII
he Produced This Year.

FULLERTON. Cal, Jan. 3.-The United
states consumed 60.O00,000 pounds OF
English walnuts last year. or more than
the entire world production for this sea-
son, declares Secretary Staley OF the Full
lerton-Placentia Walnut Association.
ut would not be an exaggeration to
say that the United States Will consume
the entire walnut crop this season n our
dealers can get hold Of IT," he said. "Our
consumption last year was immense, and
equals the entire output OF all walnut pro-
ducing lands for the present season. There
has been universal falling off In the
crop. and in some places failure.
california Is the only State In the
Union where walnuts are grown for COM
merc!al purposes Our crop Is small, The
same can be said for the groves OF France,
our nearest competitor: Manchuria, Chile
and Italy. The production OF English
walnuts lies about equally between Cali
fornia and France.
There have been statements made TO
the effect that the Chinese are going to
ruin the walnut industry OF this country
by producing immense quantities with
cheap labor. ! do not think these fears
are justified. a Ch!naman must produce
too much on his little piece Of ground to
make walnut culture profitable 1t IL only
In the hills and out OF the way places
among the mountains that walnuts are
raised at all. The crop II uncertain.
Only occasionally does a consignment
drift down into tho regular channels OF
trade"
