need of power? 1t Is only our need
of Christ Is peace absent from our
hearth The presence of Christ alone
gives peace. Do we want more love Z
We may have IL by having more oil
Him whose other name is Love. All
the problems of religion, positively
all, resolve themselves finally into.
this one supreme problem; How can
more of Christ be brought in the be-
hever's .heartp We have everything
when we have Him.
God does not give the Holy Spirit
at one time in such power that we
can forever afterward dispense with
its presence and purifying power. We
must be renewed day by day in the
inner man.-Anon.
The written word in the heart
draws the heart to the Incarnate
Word.
The Christians is the happiest
life, because 1t is lived in Him who is
joy incarnate. The other religions
of the world are religions of penance,
of fasting and of gloom, but the
Christians strong confidence is in
the Sun of Righteousness, Gin whose
presence there is fullness of JOY"
In prayer we speak to God. In si-
lence and meditation God speaks to
U.S. But how can He speak If we do
not give Him a chance?-R. p. An
derson.
A life lived with God is a peaceful
life. The old. old question, Where
can rest be found?" is answered in
the presence of God. Peace, perfect
peace, is the peculiar possession OF
those who have found pardon and
protection with the Lord. Just as
all the pictures that have ever been
painted, and all the poems, and all
the written or spoken descriptions,
cannot make plain the beauty of a
sunset, so no human words can re-
veal the sweet tranquility which is
the precious possession of those who
walk with the Lord.

1t is impossible for us to abide in
worldliness, selfishness, and sin, and
abide also in the fellowship of

Everyone Should
Drink Hot Water
in the Morning
wash away all the stomach,
liver, and bowel poIsons
before breakfast.

To feel your best day in and day
out TO feel clean inside; no sour bile
to coat your tongue and sicken your
breath or dull your head; no consti-
patton, bilious attacks, sick head
ache, colds, rheumatism or gassy,
acid stomach, you must bathe on the
inside like you bathe outside. This
is vastly more important, because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri-
ties into the blood. while the bowel
pores do, says a well-known physi-
clan.
To keep these poisons and. toxins
well flushed from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels, drink before
breakfast each day, glass of hot
water with a teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in it. This will
cleanse, purify and freshen the entire
alimentary tract, before putting
more food into the stomach.
Get q quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from your pharmacist II
Is inexpensive and almost tasteless
except sourish twinge which is not
unpleasant. Drink phosphated hot
water every morning to rid your sys-
tenn of these vile poisons and toxins;
also to prevent their formation.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves
and muscles became saturated with
an accumulation of body poisons, be-
gin this treatment and above all
keep it up! AS soap and hot water
act on the skin, cleansing, ,sweeteninl

WRINKLES

Wrinkles disfigure, and dry, SAL
low rough skin spoils any womans
good looks. To those whose skin has
reached this condition we suggest
the application of Usit, pure nut
oil, liquid preparation (not cream
or pastel. 1t is the only thing that
will feed the hungry, dry skin back
to youthful smoothness, freshness,
and plumpness, and drive away dis
figuring wrinkles that come so quick
ly when the skin is not properly
nourished.
A few applications of Usit prove
its worth, and in a reasonable time
brings wonderful results. 1t is neces-
sary to apply it only at night when
retiring. Gorgas. the druggist, or
any first-class dealer can supply it.
1t is a splendid skin food. daintily

HOLLAND-AMERICA
LINE REPORTS PROFITS

Rotterdam. Netherlands. May IL
So remunerative, albeit difficult and
risky, was transatlantic traffic in the
past year that the Holland American
Line. which maintained the service
between New York and Rotterdam. re-
ported a profit of $10,9S2,976. This is
new record. being an increase of
nearly $1.900.000 on the 1915 total.
which in its turn was more than three
times as much as the profit obtained
in\1914. Out of the sum mentioned
the company proposes to distribute
to shareholders $2,S02, SO. as a divi-
dend of 90 per cent, as compared with
so per cent. for the previous year, S3,-
416,05S being devoted to writings off
and $3.400,000 reserved for the war
profit tax. This policy is dictated by
the uncertainty of the outlook.
The company appears to have been
fairly fortunate in the matter of
losses, losing only the Bloomersdijk,
off the American coast, on October
(for which Germany is to pay COM
pensation) and, since the financial
year closed. two steamships among
the six Dutch vessels destroyed by
German submarine off the Scilly
Isles on February % last. ..

All Of tho Bibles truths are prae-
teal. So Is this one, perhaps the
loftiest of them all. There are at
least three essential means by which
We find this mystical union with the
Saviour which Is the Christians s
highest goal. First of all we must
have the aid of the helping Spirit.
He makes Christ real to us and
brings us near to Him. without the
strong Spirits assistance we can
never realize union with Christ.
The second means of abiding in
Christ is through His word. There
never has been u saint who has
known the blessedness of communion
without finding 1t through the Holy
Scriptures. Through knowledge and
obedience of the Lords words we
come to understand what 1t means to
abide in Him. The third channel
through which the blessing of union
comes is prayer. In the sacred silence
of the prayer closet we learn to
know and love Jesus as a familiar
friend. He draws nigh to us as we
draw night to Him. We cannot neg
lect prayer, Bible study. and depend
ence upon the Holy Spirit, If we
would be united to Christ.
Out and out for Christ, in and in
with Christ.
If we walk with Christ day by
day we shall surely meet Him at His
own table.
The disciples who get closest to
Christ, and who live most constantly
in the sunshine of His near presence,
are those who have passed through
the valley of self-surrender and who
have there learned the secret of a
submissive spirit. Jesus delights to
walk with those whose hearts de-
clare, Not my will, but thine, be
done"
"a missionary from India said: In
India l gave half an hour q day to
prayer, but here am so busy that 1
have to give two hours to prayer
Prayer-time is not wasted"
We have many needs in the Chris
tian life, but the one need which in
cludes all others is the need of
Christ. Do we lack joy? 1t comes
by having more of Christ. Have we

PEAS AS SUBSTITUTES

New Castle, England. May IL. -
Small dried peas called "carlins," or
maple peas, are now being eaten as
substitutes for potatoes in the north
of England. They are cooked like
marrowfat peas, soaked overnight and
boiled for twenty-five minutes the
next day. In early times "carlins"
were eaten very generally on Carlin
or Passion Sunday. They are light
brown color outside and cream color
ed under the skin and sell for from
eight to twelve cents pound, much
less than beans and peas.
