OLD RELIC OF REVOLUTION
Boston s~tatehouse, Now Fully Re.
stored, Is One Of the Most inter-
estine In the Country.

The old ~statehouse In Boston was
erected in 1713. In early days the first
floor was used as the Merchants ex-
change, and the second story as the
meeting place of the governors of the
province and the royal council. A few
feet from the eastern porch occurred
the Boston massacre on March 8, ITO.
In 1889 Washington reviewed from
this building a procession in his honor,
and in 1885 William Lloyd Garrison
took refuge there to escape from the
mob that had broken up the anti
slavery meeting, and threatened his
life. In later years the building was
turned into business offices and was so
much altered inside and outside, as
almost to destroy the original architec-
tural effect. In 1881 1t was restored
by the city Mt the request of the pub
lic-spirited citizens, and is now in the
custody of the Bostonian society,
which occupies it. The rooms, includ-
ing the old council chamber and hall
Of representatives contain a collection
of relics and paintings of revolution
airy times.

Harmony.

1t is a beautiful and blessed world
we live in. The flowers blossom in
obedience to the same law that keeps
the stars in their places. Each bird
song is an echo of the universal har-
mony. 1t is humanity which thrusts
discords, and false and Earring notes
into the days. We go out into the
beautiful morning carrying our usc ess
loads of frets and worries, our left
over resentments and our faithless
fears. The sunshine assures us that the
world is still moving safely in its ap-
pointed course and God has not for
gotten US; the birds lift their cheering
notes of rejoicing that they have found
food for the day, but we lift complain
ing voices because we have not found
provisions for years to come. Our
moody spirits and Earring tempers
hurt the love on earth and in heaven.
But they hurt own souls most of
all, for they put us out of tune with
the music of the universe.

(vv. 29-31).
1. A loved one Ill ". 30). From the
synagogue Jesus with James and John
went to the home of Peter and Andrew
where he found Peters mother-in-law
PROSTATE with a burning fever. Among
the closest followers there are suffer
ing ones and anxious and burdened
hearts, but to all such he comes with
loving sympathy and power to help.
His power is the same in the quietude
of the home as in the public meeting
place.
2. They tell him of her ". 31). This
was the proper thing to do. We should
bring to our Saviour's attention those
of our families who have need, Of both
bodily and spiritual healing.
8. He healed her ". 81. "He came
and took her by the hand and lifted
her up" This act showed the near
ness, sympathetic tenderness and pow
er OF Jesus. At his touch the fever
departed and strength was impaired to
her body so that she was at once able
to minister unto them.
4. She ministered to them ". BIZ.
This act shows that (1) the cure was
Instantaneous and complete. When
Jesus heals there is 10 halfway busi-
ness. 1t is the same with spiritual
healing. (2) Gratitude IN the part OF
| the one nealed. Those who have ex-
~perienced the healing power of Jesus
will express their gratitude in loving
service to the Lord and his disciples.

32-34).
Ii became noised about that a nota-
BILE miracle had been wrought in Peters
home, therefore as soon as the Sab
bath drew to a close many demon
possessed and diseased were brought
to him to be healed. If we would
have the crowds to gather today we
must be able to show that Jesus Is at
work among us. Our testimony should
be backed by the healed body or soul.
1. He healed those Of divers dis
eases ". 34). Jesus can heal any dis
ease. Many of the cures spoken of to-
day are temperamental, but the cures
wrought by Jesus were Of all sorts.
No malady ever bafled him.
2. Cast out many devils ". 34). The
devils obey him. There is no record
of a demon ever disputing the author
fly of Jesus. At his command they
rendered instant obedience.
3. Suffered not the devils to speak
". 34). He bids the saved soul wit
ness of his saving power, but will not
allow the devils to speak in challenge
of his authority or in witness of the
truth of his deity.
III. Jesus Retires to Pray wv. 35.

The arduous service of the day made
1t desirable to be alone with the Father
in prayer. Shut out from man-alone
with God. How necessary the hush OF
the eternal, the calm of God! There
Is great need of private prayer.

Tomorrow will be grounding day.
IF that well-known animals fails to
see its shadow when 1t makes his regu-
lar visit to the outside world, the win
ter of 191S-19 will be over before it has
really begun.
At least, that's the popular belief,
adhering to a superstition many hun
dreds of years old. The fact of the
grounding seeing his shadow or not
seeing 1t. as the case may be, is a
positive prediction of the weather to
come, according to the well-known
goose-bone prophets and others.
In stalking his all on a shadow" the
grounding has a lot on George Bliss,
the local weather forecaster. With an
observatory filled with scientific instru-
ments and a corps or men to help him
operate them, he refuses to venture a
guess as TO the weather of the coming
month.
"It might continue to be mild and
springiike," he said.
Then again, it might be the coolest

afterthought.

WAR SERVICE BUREAU
IS CLOSED BY MAYOR
"Hate to See the House
Built Torn Down." Says
Chief

Relatives of soldiers and sailors fall
ing to receive their allotments who vis-
tied the Mayors office today found the
personal service bureau out of commits
sion.
For sixteen months this bureau, under
the management of Mrs. NJ. L. Wood
ruff, stood between needy families and
dire want.
Mrs. Woodruff's work closed last night
as the result of a new economy move
on the part of Mayor Smith. It will be
taken over in part by Councils Commit
tee on Sustenance and Relief, and by
other organizations interested in depend
ents.
The expenses of the bureau were met
out of a special appropriation to the
Mayor for expenses incidental to tie
preparation for war and defense of the
city.
During the entire life of the bureau
its maintenance cost the city less than
$4,000. Its records show that hundreds
of families have gotten in touch with
their >soldier or sailor heads after they
had been lost track of in the mass Of
changes in the service: that hundreds
OF ieeuy uepeHuelllS nave Dttu given
allotments that In some instances were
six months in arrears; that roster mis-
takes, due to misplaced initials, changed
names and addresses. were rectiiied, and
that long-overdue funds were paid by
the Washington bureaus The bureau
also, in many cases. stood between land
lord and tenant and prevented evictions.
The bureau had among it's records a
roster of Philadephisns in the army and
navy and even IN other branches of
war work. This record will be put un-
der lock and key. Its value for his.
torical purposes is best shown by the
fact that there is none other like 1t in
the city. 1t includes some 65. 900 names.
In relinquishing her work Mrs. Wood
ruff said. 81 hate to see the house I
built torn down. Councils this year
appropriated $35o,ooO for war relief
work.
