After-War Coffee.

People old enough to remember the
Civil war are able to recall the fact
that after the close of that conflict it
was difficult and often impossible to
obtain coffee. Various substitutes were
used, such as parched rye, but one that
was commonly utilized in Washington
and many other cities was sweet pO-
tatoes The latter were first roasted
and allowed to burn somewhat on the
outside. Then they were mashed in
water and boiled. The water was thus
transformed into coffee, by no means
so unpalatable as might be imagined.
Sugar in those days cost 25 cents
pound. But the sweet potato coffee
required no sugar, and so was an eco
nomical drink.

Every phrase in this Saying" de-
serves our consideration.
The Names of Christ
Christ Jesus Christ is Greek
for the Hebrew Messiah" and means
amounted: our Lord was anointed to be
the King and Redeemer of his people
Jesus is Greek for the Hebrew
Joshua" and means Jehovah, the Sa-
vior: it is the human name of our
Lord So that Christ sets him be-
fore us as the One promised; Jesus"
as the One manifested. Sometimes
one name is placed first and some
times the other. When Jesus Christ
is used it seems to set before us ''the
humbled One now glorified," whereas
Christ Jesus" marks him as 1.-The now
gIor1hed One who was once humb1ed-
The latter expression is appropriately
used here where Paul looks back to
the incarnation.
'sCame into the world" It will be
seen at once that this implies pre-ex-
istence- But do we have any adequate
appreciation of what it meant for
Christ to come into the world? These
words of Prof. A. T. Robertson are
well worth bordering:
''He suffered in so doing in ways
that are beyond our comprehension.
We catch glimpses of the yearning of
Christ for the glory which he had with
the Father before the incarnation and
even before the world was, by the Fa-
Tiers side (John II :5)- There is
fu1lness of knowledge between the Son
and the Father not true of others. and
Jesus often goes alone to pray with
the Father. How the Son missed the
glories of heaven we can only ina

do have some comprehension. but
only a little after all, for we have be-
