STUDIES IN
 PROPHECY OF
 SACRED BOOK Extracts from a Lesson Given at the Presbyte-
 rian Church in ? Juneau. WHAT THE LORD SAID Prophecies Claim That Je- sus Christ Is to Rule the Whole
 World.
WHAT THE LORD SAID

The Wednesday evening service at the Northern Light Presbyter- ian church is increasing in inter- est and attendance, as the pastor, Rev. Geo. Gladstone Bruce has been taking up series a Bible Lessons by C. L. Scofield, DID,, president of the Philadelphia School of the Bible. These lessons have proved not only very helpful to those at tending, but also very interesting The studies recently have been on the line of prophecy in rela- tion to one of the most important subjects set forth in the Word of God-the Second Coming of Je- sus Christ to this earth. For the
 benefit of those who could not have
 the privilege of attending these Bi- ble Studies, they are given in con- densed form.
 The Two Advents of Christ-Dr.
 Scofield says: Whoever careful ly considers Old Testament prophe- cies must be struck by two con- trasting and seemingly contradict
 ory, lines of prediction concerning
 the coming Messiah" One line of
 prophecy speaks of Him coming in
 weakness and~ humiliation, "man of sorrows and acquainted with grief" In the 59rd chapter of
 Isaiah we read: "He hath no form
 nor comeliness; and when we shall see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him. He is de- spised and rejected of men; man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and we hid as it were our faces from Him. He was despised, and we esteemed Him not. Surely He hath borne our griefs and car ried our sorrows. He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chas- tisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned ev- eryone to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity Oi uS all. Tie WdS OppICSocu, anu He was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth; He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb. so He openeth not His mouth"
 This prophecy was all literally fulfilled at Christs first coming when He was despised and reject ed, crowned with thorns, beaten with stripes and spit upon. yet He bore it all in patience and silence as we see in Matt. 27:12-14 and Mark 15:2-5. We also read the prophecy of the crucifixion in Psalm 22:1-18 with the very words that came from Christ's lips on the cross: My God. my God, why hast though forsaken Me?" For, the
 Heavenly Father could not look
 upon even His beloved Son when Jesus took the sinners place bear
 ing the Judgment pronounced on sin. This prophecy also says: "They pierced my hands and my
 feet. They part my garments among them. and cast lots upon my yesture." which was also literally

THE HOUSEHOLD
Edited by ANNE RITTENHOUSE
Germany's Best Ally.

"It is believed to be true literally
that the potato has saved Germany
from starvation says an article urg-
ing the planting and cultivating of
more potatoes in England. that ap-
peared recently in the London Times.
AS things are now. the potato supply
of England is not adequate for its own
needs If the cultivation of this I'M
portant tuber is extended to its maxi
mum then, says this writer. there will
be enough potatoes for ordinary cook
ing purposes and, moreover. enough
to augment the wheat in making
bread.
At the same time that this condition
prevails in England, we are aced with
the astonishing fact that thirty million
bushels of potatoes may go to waste
in our own land simply thru lack of
adaptability of our own housewives
and professional cooks in making use
of them.
Thirty million bushels may go to
wastei
But thirty million bushels are not
going to waste, because the American
housewife and the American cook
have shown themselves to be adapt
able and patriotic individuals, and
once warned they will do their duty
in this respect The fact is that pota-
toes do not ship to good advantage.
1HGy require IilOTS IOOHl
than wheat in shipping, and when
ships are limited and shipping is haz-
ardous it would be foolish to send the
more bulky, less easily transported ar
tfcIe. That is why we are urged to
eat the potatoes and leave the wheat.
England is doing her best to raise
enough potatoes for her own use.
Every housewife who makes her
own bread ought. before another week
passes, to teach herself the simple
knack of making bread with an ad-
! mixture of mashed potatoes. 1t is a
very simple way of saving wheat and
using some of those thirty million
bushels.
If you know less than fifteen ways
of cooking potatoes you are below par
as a wartime cook. With fifteen ways
of preparing potatoes there is no dan
ger that your family will grow tired
of potatoes at every dinner. If the
potatoes are cooked deliciously, they
will soon acquire the habit of taking
two helphgs of potatoes and no
bread, instead of one helping of pota-
toes and one slice of bread. Learn to
make use of various fiavorings in 20
tatoes. Ham or bacon fat gives them
a delicious flavor in frying. A little
onion is usually liked: chopped pars-
| ley, celery leaves. a bit Of cheese or a
tomato isauce all give variety at diff
ferent times. Lemon juice adds
piquancy to old potatoes in some
dishes. 1t is worth while occasionally
| to use an egg in potatoes to make po-
| tato souffie. If you have leftover
milk, make mashed potatoes with milk
| or scallop them with it. The mill
will increase their nutritive quaIitie:
and will give a creamy texture and &
rich flavor. especially if they are
/ baked slowly for long time.

Checks and Stripes Take Their Place
With Solid Colors and Provide an
Agreeable Diversion in d-Summer
Clothes. They Allow More Novel
Treatment and Gay Effects Than
Demure Colors, But They Should
Be Worn Only by the Slim. Even
Though the Person Be Not Young.
New York-The world of clothes is
no longer divided into those for the
old and those for the young; it is di-
vided into those for the thick and
those for the thin.
Slenderness at fifty can adopt the
clothes of slenderness at twenty. The
woman with thick waist, a double
chin and flesh-padded shoulders, can
sometimes produce youthful effect
of figure if she tapers from the waist
down, but when the large bust is add
ed to the large, curving hips, youth
full gowns must be abandoned. Such
women need cotton in their ears at
the sound of the siren call of certain
dressmakers.
Checks For the Slim Figure
There are women who are evidently
utterly unaware of the fact that age
has ceased to be a dominating factor
in the selection of clothes. They dress
according to the color of the hair, and
some dress according to the blue eyes
that once held great charm, but are
now faded; but the majority, and the
wise ones, dress according to the
bones of their figure.
1t is the fashion to remain slim. II
is the fashion to remain young in fig
ure, If not in face. This is a somer-
sault, one admits, but somersaults are
so common in the circus of life today
that one no longer pays heed to them

The woman who retains suppleness
of bones or straightness of line from
neck to heels, can have grandchildren,
and boast of them, but still, she can
wear checked and striped frocks, cui-
rass blouses, short skirts and turn
over, Elton collars.
Each of these features of fashion
would appear ridiculous on stout
young women, but the slim, middle
aged woman knows that they belong
to her by right of her silhouette. Her
face may be a trifle faded or lined
with years, or thought, or anxiety, but
she knows that the hat with the shad-
ed brim and the charitable veil can
wipe out these defects with clever ad-
! justment.
The Cuirass Buttons in Back.
1t was not a young woman who wore
the costume sketched today. She was
! watching grown sons going thru their
! maneuvers at camp. Probably il had
| been whispered in her ear by these
grown sons that they wanted her to
| look her youngest and best and to put
on her most cheerful clothes when she
| came to camp, for we have learned
| that this is the dominating thought
| next to war in the minds of our youth
| full warriors. They want mother, or
sister, or fiancee. to be admired, and
/ they are strenuous in their demands
| that their women come to camp well
| dressed, in order to make other young
warriors envious.
The gown worn by this woman is an
extreme model, clever in cut and
worthy of wide imitation. 1t is a
