1.-THE MEEK.

While the flu ban is still on, Rev
Mark Pike, Pastor of the Community
Church, writes another message for The
readers of the Herald.
Webster's dictionary defines meek
ness' as being mild of temper, not
easily provoked, patient under injur
les, not vain nor naughty, for bearing
and submissive; and Christ says,
a'Blessed are all men of that kind for
they shall inherit the earth. -
Weakness is a rare virtue. and those
who enjoy the blessing pronounced up
on it are but handful. When Christ
said, "blessed are the poor in spirit,
He blessed the great majority in His
congregation that morning, for the
politicians and sinners-the needy
souls of Palestine-had gathered to-
gether to hear Him. When He said,
Blessed are they that mourn" He
took wider sweep still, and blessed
everybody without exception for not
even tuc plouu udlIoce was d StlduS
er to sorrow. But when He
said "Blessed are the meek, - you
could count on the fingers of one hand
all of that vast throng who could lay
any claim to that blessing. Five
thousand men-besides women and
children-were gathered on the hill

we would have difficulty in finding
even one meek man save the Preacher
who uttered the beatitude.
Meekness is not natural virtue,
says one eminent Divine Weakness is
one of the fruits of the spirit. The
outstanding characteristic of Moses
was meekness but Moses was not al
ways meek. Open your bible and in
the second chapter of Exedous read
these words, "And it came to pass,
as Moses was grown that he went out
unto his brethren, and looked ON their
burdens and he spied an Egyptian
shifting a Hebrew, one of his brethren.
And he looked this way and that way
and when he saw that there was no
man he smote the Egyptian and hid
him in the sand. There you have the
natural Moses, a man with temper
like flame. 1t was not till Moses
was an old man that he acquired the
grace of meekness. 1t was not till he
had been disciplined by those forty
years in indian, and by those other

| Moses learned to control his tempel
and curb his tongue, and became very
meek above all the men that We're upoi

And in the young Moses in the hea7

all see ourselves. We give back wore
for word, blow for blow, insult for in
suit. and there is no lesson God sets
us so hard to learn as that of check
ing the hasty word and casting out OF
our souls, the spirits of malice and re-
venge.
Many men will not say that meek
ness is virtue. Watch the life of
Jesus and see the meekness in Him.
Jesus was nobody's scholar or disciple.
He initiated nobody, copied nobody.
He was not repeater of the conven-
tional .orthodoxies. He was absolutely
independent, fresh, original, and struck
out path for Himself. Christ reject
the popular judgment, when he set His
blessings upon the meek and raised
meekness to the rank of virtue and
a grace. For in the worlds opinion
meekness, patience under injuries, was
not regarded as a virtue, but rather
as an infirmity, weakness and vice.
The ideal man of the Romans was the
man who would allow no liberties to
be taken with himself, and who was
swift to avenge an insult In France
if a man is insulted, and bears it in
the spirit of meekness, he is cast out
of society; if he is to move in the So
ciety of so-called gentlemen, he must
challenge his injurer in a duel, and
seek to wash out the insult in his adj
blood. Meekness is a sign I
of strength. The strongest and most |
heroic man the world has ever seen was
also the meekest the world has ever
known, that man was the meek and I
Iowly Jesus. The strength, the hero
ism of Christ is not SO clearly shown
when he is driving those that bought I
and sold panic-stricken crowd out of
the temple courts; or when He is stand
ing in that little boat and sitting
The whistling wind and roaring sea
with word; or when He is tanning
maniacs who men could not subdue
and who chains could not bind; or
when He is wrestling with death and
bringing Lazarus back to life. Mol
But it shines forth when He is in the
lands of His foes; when He is buff
'eted and spit upon in the Judgment
lall; when He is sconrged and Knocked
~ the soldiers; when the blood-drops L
ire on his face caused by the fangs
# that cruel HOMEGROWN on His brow;
when they lay Him unresisting upon
hat cruel cross, and hammer the nails
nto his quivering flesh. This is the
very sublimity of heroism, that Jesus,
Who had at His command ten thous-
and legions of angels, who could have
destroyed all His enemies, with the
breath of His mouth, should endure at
their hands mockery, insult, suffering
and death; this is the very majestic

Look Years Younger! Use Grand
mothers Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur and Nobody Will Know

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded. gray hair to its
natural color dates back to grand
mothers time. She used It to keep
her hair beautifully dark. glossy
and attractive. Whenever her hair
took on that dun. faded or streaked
appearance this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy
and out-of date. Nowadays, by
asking at any drug store for a bot
tie of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" you viii get this ia %
nous old preparation. improved by
the addition Of other ingredients,
which can be depended upon To re-
store natural color and beauty to
the hair.
A well-known downtown drug
gist says II darkens the hair so nat
urally and evenly that nobody can
tell II has been applied. You sim
ply dampen a sponge or soft brush
with It and draw this through your
hair. taking one strand at a time.

ton or two. II becomes beautifully
dark and glossy.

Mr.. Hoover and the Farmers.
[Wallace's Farmer.1

Ii we were asked to name one man
who is more responsible than any
other for starting the dissatisfaction
which exists among the farmers Of
the country. we would instantly name
Mr. Hoover. What has Mr.. Hoover
TO do with it? g.. He announced
in November of 1917. that 50 tar as
he could influence prices he would
try to make the hogs farrowed in the
spring of 1918 fetch a price per hum
dredweight, when ready for market,
which would be equivalent TO the
value Of thirteen bushels Of the corn
fed into them.
This promise made by Mr.. Hoover
was given the widest publicity. He
printed it in pamphlet form and
circulated it turnout the United
States, The farm papers, the pro-
fessors in the agricultural colleges.
everybody who had chance to talk
to the farmer or write for him, told
about this promise and assured the
farmer that no matter what hap
pened, If they would only produce
more hogs, they could be sure that
they would get = price for them that
would yield them more money than
they could get II they sold the corn.
Farmers took this promise at it,
face value. They believed what ev-
erybody told them, and the result
was that they very greatly increased
the number Of hogs. They regarded
Mr.. Hoovers promise a. q promise
of the government--which. in fact, 1t
was. because Mr.. Hoover wss acting
for tbs government-and they had
full faith In Uncls Fam They had
been losing uonsy Of. hogs right
along. but now they thought they
could produce them safely, at q profit.
The time came to mako good. the
promise. Tho new price was to be
applied to the pigs 1srrowed ia the
