On st. Johns Day, at the evening
service, the Rev. c. w. Bispham, s.
T. NJ, was the special speaker. Rev.
Mr. Bispham spoke on the 'Incarna-
tion," taking his text from st Luke
2:17: And when they had seen it,,
they made known abroad the saying,
which was told them, concerning this
child"
A critical study of the Bible con-
vinces us that the Christmas belief
is founded on fact The best schol-
ars of Christianity tell us that ST.
Luke is one of the worlds greatest
and most accurate historians and
that his gospel is Gods truth. The
speaker continued, saying in part:
at is easy to destroy ones faith,
but hard to build it up. Be sure that
he one who would destroy your faith
nOws more than God knows. The
story of the birth of Jesus Christ, as
re shepherds, speaking of an Incl
dent far beyond natural laws. What
the shepherds noised abroad has
been accepted by the Church of God
m all these Christian centuries.
And so we believe. in our Apostles
creed: Conceived by the Holy
Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary
To-day denials are brought before us
in the public press, and therefore we
contend for the truth against these
denials. They tell us that the pro-
that the gospels are myths. And yet
many of these authors claim to &C.
cept Jesus as their leader. But you
have got to believe in your leader
and what he says or he is no real
leader to you. If, then, Jesus is our
leader, We must believe in Him and
in what He says about Himself.
Christ taught On a high plane the
spiritual life that comes through a
belief in Himself 1t makes vast
difference. then, what we believe.
The shepherds made known abroad
the saying. which was told them,
concerning this child; so likewise
we must believe the story of the
shepherds. There are people who
say, 4 believe in nothing that can
not prove; and you will find in
them a belief in nothing super
natural. Belief in Jesus Christ is a
positive necessity in the sight of
God. Religion is the salvation Of
souls through the redeeming blood of
Jesus Christ, our Lord. The Bible is
Gods word. Belief in the Babe of

The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes a
whole quarter pint Of the most re-
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost onef must pay for a
small jar of the ordinary cold creams.
Care should be taken to strain the
lemon juice through fine cloth so
no lemon pulp gets in, then this To-
ton will keep fresh for months. Ev-
cry woman knows tnat lemon juice
is used to bleach and remove such
blemishes as freckles sallowness and
tan and is the ideal skin softener,
smoothener and beautifier.
just try it! Make up a quarter
pint Of this sweetly fragrant lemon
lotion and massage it daily into the
face, neck, arms and hands. It should
naturally help to whiten, soften, fresh
en-, and bring out the hidden roses and
beauty Of any skin. It is wonderful
for rough, red hands.
Your druggist will sell three ounces
of orchard white at little cost, and any
grocer will supply the lemons.
