SUNDAY-SCHOOL
LESSON FOR SEPT. 28
THIRD QUARTERLY REVIEW.
BY REV. J. K. GILBERT, D, D
Secretary of Ameiican Society of Re
ligious Education,
Introduction. During tho quarter wa
bnvo studied select passages In tho his
tory of Israel from tho giving of Manna
In tho wilderness of Sin to tho death of
Moses In tho laud of Moub, Tho tlmo
coveted Is nearly forty years, 1190 to 14rl
II. C, Every lesson has had some refer
ence to Moses ns tho great central figure.
Wldlo thcro has been a disclosure of tho
Intellectual aud religious lifo of tho peo
ple there Iuib been more striking represen
tation of this great leader. In the main
thcro has been much to adn,ll'o only on
ono or two occasions did ho exhibit weak
nesses, Grcnt progress was mado In thoso
years. A nation was organized, Its laws
wero enacted, and Its forms of public
worship were lixed,
FIRST LKSSON.-July C. The Giving
of Munmi, (Ex. xvl. 1-15). Tho first of
tho long series of murmuriiiKs In which
Israel enguged, wns for luck nf food. A
few weeks nut of Egypt, the supplies ex
hausted, they turned against Moses mid
Aaron as responsible for their misfor
tunes, longing for tho flesh pots of their
nominee, -ino i.ord promised to relievo
tho distress by sending both llesli and
breud; making this the proof of Jits
preseiu'o und care, The promise was fill,
tilled and tho supply of food continued
throughout tho wundeilng,
SCEOND LESSON.-July 13. Tho Ten
Commandments. Duties of God. (Ex,
xx, Ml). Tho national foundation was
nffected In n constitution of ten parts
tho first four of which established mono
theism. Of these three wero negative and
ono positive. Other gods were prohibited,
Idolatry was forbidden, and blusphemy
condemned. Thus tho Individual and the
community nlllto began with a correct
idea of God and the proper attitude to.
ward Him. This was fundamental and
vital. To preserve this thcistle concep
tion one-scvcnth of tho tlmo was net
apart to sacred uses and tho other six
Bovcnths wore consecrated to secular pur
poses. THIRD LESSON.-July 20. Tho. Ten
Commandments. Duties to Man (Ex.
xx, 1217). Under this codo mdrntlty Is
Inseparably enjoined with religion. Duty
to God Involves duty to ,tnnn, Neither
can bo truly met whllo the other is neg
lected. But thera Is a natural order, hero
nnuounccd first, filial reverence, tho
mother regarded as well ns tho father;
tho life to bo held sacred! then chastity
to bo obsorvod; then property rights to bo
respected! tho reputation and truth to
bo preserved! Inst of nil tho invasion of
rights by desiring another's possessions to
bo denied, It Is probable that thoso six
precepts directly or by Implication deal
with nil tho relations nnd conditions of
life.
FOURTH 'LESSON.-July 27. Worship
ping tho Golden Calf. (Ex. xxxlll, 1-3.").
The second statute of tho decaloguo was
soon broken, proving that tho people wero
not prepared for tho high standard which
bad been set up. Tho occasion wns the
long nbsenco of Moses In tho mount
whero ho wns receiving Instructions from
God. Tho religions sentiments of tho
people were not satisfied with a spiritual
being. There was need of something
that appealed to tho senses. . Hence,
Idolatry enmo In, llko that practiced In
Egypt.
FIFTH LESSON.-Aug. 8. Tho Tab
ernacle, (Ex. xl, 1-13), During the pa
triarchal dispensation worship was per
formed nt an altar of stono which might
bo erected anywhere. God met tho sili
cons worshipper. Under a national sys
tem, especially after sojourn In Egypt, a
moveable tent was sot up as tho abiding
place of the Almighty. Constructed with
tho free will offerings of tho people nfter
patterns shown In tho mount It was sot
up In tho midst of tho camp nnd became
the center of nil religious life and Influ
ence. It served to unify nnd educnto
and to prefigure things to come.
SIXTH LESSON.-Aug. 10. Nadab
nnd Ablhu. (Lev. x, 1-11). As tho law
was broken so tho holy place was pro
faned. Two sons of Aaron, high officials
In tho sanctunry. disregarded tho regula
tions which had been adopted for tho
proper conduct of worship. Unless ror
buked their example would havo been
followed by others, and In a short tlmo
nil reverence would have departed from
tho sacred place and Irregularities nnd
Improprieties would havo beeen mul
tiplied. Tho offenders were Instantly de
stroyed; nnd their bodies wero carried out
of tho camp for burial. No mourning was
allowed even by relatives. From that
time forth a difference was mado be
tween things holy and unholy.
SEVENTH LESSON.-Aug, 17. Jour
neying toward Canaan. (Numb. x. lt-13
and 29-36). The toilsome marches through
the wilderness are described only In part,
and then very briefly In the sacred vol'
nme. The way wns beset with peril
ngalnst which Moses sought to protect
himself by securing the presence of his
father-in-law, who, having long lived in
thnt region, was familiar with It. But
tho Invitation was rejected and Hobab re
turned to his old home. What was more
valuable than human escort, tho pillar
of cloud, wherein was tho Divine pres
ence, remained with them leading them
on and showing them when to pause.
The piety of Moses appeared in Ills trust
in God, ready to move whenever tho
cloud Indicated.
EIGHTH LESSON.-Aug. 24. Report
of tho Spies. (Numb, xill l!ii, to xlv, I).
Twelve men, one from ench tiibe, went
forth from Kndlsh Balnea to explore
the land of Canaan. After travelling
through tho entire country they returned
and reported that the land was beautiful
and fruitful, bringing a huge bunch of
grapes to verify their statement, but thnt
tho Inhabitants wero very strong. Caleb
and Joshua advised nn immediate ad
vance clalmng that they wero able to
subdue and possess the land. The other
ten spies gave nn evil report which wns
accepted by the body of the people who
murmured ngalnst Moses. Supposing the
expedition was a total failure there was
a proposal to elect another captain and
return to Egypt, thus rejecting the mis
sion and tho leader. In this Instance
there was nn eellpso of faith and an In
cipient rebellion.
NINTH LESSON.-Aug. 31. Tho Rrnzcn
Serpent. (Numb, xxl, 1-9). After many
years of wandering In the wilderness Is
rael was turned n second time toward Ca
naan, Discouraged In the weary march
there was general complaint ngalnst
Moses as on tho other occasions. To
chastise them and bring them Into hu
mility nnd submission fiery serpents were
sent among them. Groaning from pain
nnd bereavement were heard through
out tho camp. The spirit of penitence
followed: Moses Interceded nnd God
pardoned. But to help tho fultb and sym
bolize great truths to be learned a brazen
serpent was lifted upon a polo In tho
center of tho camp. Whosoever looked
toward this should live. (John, ill, ll-ir,).
TENTH LESSON.-Sept. 7. The Proph
et llko Moses. (Dent, xvlll, 9-22). This
lesson might bo styled "God's method of
giving Religious Truths." Tho peoplo
wero commanded not to be practice thoso
arts by which tho Cannanltes sought In
formationIncantations, spiritualism, di
vination, etc., for which they had been
expelled from their country. These prac
tices were abominable in tho sight
nf tho Lord, likely to corrupt aud de
grade. But Instead God promised to
ralso up a class of men, to bo knwon ns
Divinely commissioned when they rest
ed their sayings upon predictions that
afterward come through.
ELEVENTH LESSON-Sept. II. Lov
ing and Obeying God, Dent., xxx, ll-2.
Tho truth delivered by Inspired men, al
ways near at band nnd easily under
stood, was tho ono rule oj" conduct. If
followed, llfo and blessing would result;
If disregarded or violated, death or na-

tlonitl disaster would succeed, Alt this
had been repeatedly set beforo tho nation
so thnt tho choice might bu made. But
obcdlenco to bo acceptable must bo from
tho heart. Love must prompt and gilldo
the will. Righteousness of this sort would
secure nil tho blessings promised to Abra
ham nnd his posterity In tho land soon
to bo entered.
TWELFTH LESSON-Sept, 21. Tho
Dcnth of Moses, Dcut., xxxlv, 1-12. Do
llied tho privilege of entering Canaan,
Moses was taken to tho top of Plsgnh
from which ho could obtain a view of the
whole land. Thero bo was burled In an
unknown grnvo having attained tho ago
of 120 years. National mourning fol
lowed for thirty dnys, Joshua, who bail
been previously consecrated, succeeded to
tho command, and tho heart nf Israel
turned toward him, By some later his
torian a postcrlpt wns added to tho book
saying that Moses was nn llicompurabto
prophet who talked with God fnco to
face.
CONCLUSION.-Flfleen hundred years
nfter Moses died In Monh ho appeared
upon tho Mount of Transfiguration with
Ellas, tho great prophet to converse with
Jesus. (Matt., xvll, 2.) Later stilt a New
Testament writer nsserts that tho law
giver was Inferior to Jesus Christ (Hob.,
Ill, 3), and shows wherein. (Heb., Ill, r-(.)
From thoso passages It Is evident thnt
the Mosaic economy looked forward to
tho Christian era In which It wns fulfilled.
It would bo wlso thcrcforo to retrace tho
steps ulong tho quarter's lessons to see
bow they lend on toward tho Intended
goal, All true souls that preceded Jesus
helped to make tho world ready for him.
All tho work of tho earlier tlmo con
tributed something to tho building of tho
now church.

In conking mushrooms, It should bo
remembered thnt the simplest way Is
tho best. Much cooking, tougheni,
whllo tho delicate flavor needs no dis
guising condiments to tempt tho pnl
ate, In ercnmlng llicm, peel cnrofnlly,
trim oft tho stalks, but savo them for
your breakfast omelette or steak, and
lay fnco down In a clean granite or
porcelain-lined snticepnn, In which hns
been melted u tablespnonful of swcot
butter. Let tho Juice oxudo for n few
moments, then add as much rich milk
or cronm ns there Is mushroom liquor.
Simmer slowly for live or six mo
ments, senson lightly with salt nnd
pepper, nnd pour over dellcntely
browncd slices of tonst.
Other delicious ways of preparing
j, .mushrooms lire baking and broiling.
T In baking, you can utilize tho
small
or Imperfect mushrooms and the
stems. Spread thickly on slices of
toast which nro rather underdone, sea
son with salt, pepper nnd a llttlo but
ter, and bake In a moderate oven, un
til the toast Is well moistened with the
mushroom liquor.
For broiling, select large, perfect
mushrooms. Trim off the stums, nnd
lay them fnco upward on a well-buttered
gridiron. Sprluklo lightly with
salt, nnd when tho cups nro lilted with
Juice, lift carefully on slices of but
tered tonst, taking caro not to spill
the Juice.
A little llmejulco ndded to a cup of
hot or cold tea Is considered by many
to bo an Improvement over the uso of
lemon.
A new sandwich filling Is made of
preserved ginger, chopped fine, nnd
moistened with rich cronm.
Tho housewlfo who lives In a city
with a Chinese quarter will find It to
her advantage to buy her preserved
ginger by tho pound nt the Chinese
grocers. It can be .bought In bulk for
50 cents a pound.
When a stylogrnpblo pen sticks and
refuses to uncnp, hold It over a light
ed match for a moment and It will
loosen.
Half a pound of dry bread, one
quarter pound nut kernels and ono
pound of raw fruit, furnish a dinner,
it Is said, that will give good staying
power for six or eight hours.
Food for the nged, according to a
prominent English nuthorlty, shall
consist In the main of fruits und vege
tables, ns the acids dissolve out the
lime salts from the tissues, nnd so
prevent too early stiffness of tho Joints
and other parts. Tea nnd coffee nro
best avoided, ns they cause paralysis,
or want of proper control over the
limbs. Pork, veal, cheese and much
flesh food must be avoided, as n heavy
meal of nny nf these foods Is liable to
Induce a stroke of apoplexy. All food
should he simple, plainly cooked, and
taken in great moderation, lest tho di
gestive organs bo overtnxed. Break
fast may consist of porridge nnd milk,
or whole wheat bread and fruit and a
cup of cocoa or milk.
Dinners mnv consist of vegetable
soup and bread, macaroni, vegetables,
and sonic simple plainly cooked 11011
flesb dish.
For desert, stewed fruit and bread,
or plain rlcf. sago, tapioca or maca
roni puddlncs. If llesli or fish aro
eaten they should bo of tho most di
gestible kinds, as lean beef or mutton,
or boiled or ba':ed white mealed fish,
and then hi moderation. Better than
meit nro vegetables flavored with the
gravy.
Supper may consist of whole wheat
bread nnd fruit, or boiled onions, cel
ery or beet root, and a cup of cocoa
or' mil!- and water. Food should not
be taken for at least three hours be
fore going to bed.

Imperative, It should be gentle. Level
ground Is best to walk on, and exer
cise should never be taken within nn
hour after mcftl. Heavy lifting, strain
ing or hurrying must bo avoided,
Fresh air Is tho best tircvcntlvo of
chest complaints, and If well protect
ed, thcro need be no curtailing of ex
ercise, even in wet und stormy
weather.
If ono has a toothache and can't
reach the dentist, try this method of
temporarily delaying the pain: Cleanse
nnd dry the hollow tooth with n bit
of cotton. Then put In a small cotton
plug dipped In creosote or oil of cloves.
Cover this with another bit of dry
cotton, or, still better, a llttlo beeswax
and cotton kneaded together. This
keeps out the air and downs tho "mis
cry" until u dentist can be reached.
While the habits and customs of the
untutored savage nre not always to
bo commended to his white brother,
there are some things that boar tho
Impress of good, sound, common sense.
For Instance, among the Hopls and
Mnrcjos, who stand at tho head of all
the Indian tribes, for their feats of
strength nnd endurance, It Is the cus
tom to leave an opening In all their
garments just under the arm. Instead
of covering up tho nrmplt with extra
shields, a silt about six Inches long Is
cut In the under wnlst nnd nrm seams.
This gives the air freo access to that
part of tho body when perspiration Is
most profuse.
In New York city ono of the best
known professors of the "benutlfler"
cult lays stress on tho vnluo of, ollvo
oil as a hair restorer and wrinkle era
dlcator and preventive.
Tho pores of tho scalp and skin, sho
declares, drink tho oil In with avid
ity, and thlck.glossy hair and well
rounded contours follow Itsi persistent
application.
In shampooing white hair, the up-to-dato
hair dresser uses a llttlo laundry
blue In the last rinsing water. This
gives the hah- a clear white tinge,
much more beautiful than the yellow
cast which 13 common to tho unlnl
ated. If you hnve a basement dining room
or rather dark bedroom whero long
curtains shut out too much of tho
light, try tho effect of the linen Anno
Hathaway curtains, copied from tho
old house at Stratford-on-Avon. These
aro simply scrim or dottd Swiss, mado
about three-eights of a yard In length,
finished with a linger and a half hem
at tho bottom and n two-Inch hem nt
tho top, shirred very full upon a brass
rod or cotd and hung across tho top
of the window casement.
These do not cut off tho llcht, but
give 1111 nrtlstlc finish to the windows,
which shades alono leave too severe
ly plain.

It a luxury Instead of u dally neces
sity, vntlotis vegetable substitutes nro
finding their way on breakfast tables
nil over the land. Tho Now Englaud
cr, loynl to tradition, llnds plenty, of'
company thoso days In his Sundny
morning breakfast of beans and brown
bread, lit the cxtrcmo west and south
west, tho brown frlgoll, cooked with
plenty of pepper, serves the snmo pur
pose. Green corn cakes, fried toma
toes wllb erenin gravy, fried egg
plant, fried mush or hominy, samp, or
rice, prepared utter tho Spanish meth
od, nro all satisfying and Upproprlalo
breakfast dishes whero something
hcurtlcr than rolls, fruit and cofteo Is f (
required
'
'.
To prepare tho Spanish rlco have
ready n saucepan In which are two
lablcspoonfuls of ulco but drippings.
Throw in a half cupful of well-washed
rlco nnd tows about until lileelv
browned. Add ono sliced tomato, 0110'' f
sliced onion nnd a clove of gnrllo and
brown lightly. Cover tho whole with
hot water, season with salt nnd pop
per. Cover and let the .rice cook,
thoroughly, adding more water as
needed.
Do not stir, ns the beauty of It lies
In the plump brownunbroken kernels.
Rlco nnd toasted chcoso Is n good
combination, though better for lunch
con or supper than breakfast. Cut
slices of cold boiled rice and fry to a
rich brown In butter or drippings. Cut
cheese Into pieces about half as largo
ns the slices of rlco and toast over tho
lire until beginning to soften. Lay oh
the hot rlco nnd serve Immediately.
An excellent substitute for beef tea,
according to vegetarians, may bo
found In a stew of haricot beans,
pearl barley, rice, carrots, turnips and
nn onion. Strain off the fluid nnd
servo with toast. When cold this
broth forms a Jelly which Is exceed
ingly nourishing. It contains soluble
starch, albumen and sugar, all of
which are easily taken up by the sys
tem. '
.
Thin slices of mellow, juicy pears,
with boiled custard poured over them,
afford a timely nnd delicious dessert.
Servo cold in sherbet glasses or deep
saucers.
A successful venture in a new food
combination, tho other day, deserves
passing on. The dinner was being
prepared over a gas range, and the
gas refused to glvo more than ono
burner of good llamo at a time. The
cook had started to boll new potatoes
In one saucepan and lima beans In qn
othcr. When she found that only one
kettlo could be kept boiling, sho put
the contents of the two vessels to
gether and finished their cooking.
When tender they were set back to
steam, whllo a white sauce, was pro
pared and turned over them.
The result wns so delicious and sat
isfactory that tho combination will bo
used again, even if not necessary.
The poison Ivy, with Its brlillnnt au
tumnal colorlHg and pretty berries,
will soon bo counting its victims by
tho score. Tho wiso Individual who
goes out Into the country for nuts, bit
tersweet or other trophies of the
woodland, takes bis antidoto for su
mac, poison oak or Ivy with him.
This Is a solution of common baking
soda, a tabiosnoonful fo a pint of
water. If npplled at once, it Is almost
always effective.

AN OCEAN POSTOFFICB.
Scheme for Establishing Mldocean
Wireless Telegraph.
From American Shipbuilding.
A scheme Is on foot In Liverpool
which It is claimed by tho English ship
ping journals, will soon bo In commer
cial operation for utilizing wireless
telegraphy In n mid-ocean pnstofflca '
nnd signal station. It Is tho Intention-'
to permanently moor at 'a point 110 .
miles west of tho Lizard a ship wlileli'
will be equipped with 11 searchlight and .
a complete sot of Miircnnli apparatus,!
A3 the water nt tho point selected will ';
Involve the use of n moorlngi chain 40f""''
or M0 feet In length, the weight- of '
which would prevcut the bows from- .
riding buoyantly over tho heavy sous,- k
tho vessel will bo prqvlded with a w
hawse-pipe placed In the heel of - the
foremast, . !..
The searchlight Is to havo a vertical'
beam for the purpose of. Illuminating ,
the clouds and enabling tho flouting -.5
postofllco to bo picked up at night froip ,
a distance of sixty ii)!es, or more, As,
the vessel will bo located In,, the .fair, r
way of tho English chunncl, It will ,be ,
advantageously placed for ,ti6 . illst,!-!.-, , ,
btitlop of orders sent from shpre,by.1tlho .,
owners of vessels which nro passing, Jrij ,,..
and out of the channel. Thus a s)pn '"
coining In from the west or from ,tli n ,,
south could be directed eRhec to Mv'er-,
pool. Bristol or an English cjutnnpl ,
port. Uy this means pilotage pud port "
dues would be reduced, 'nnd. of course; -there
would bo n considerable'1 savjng '
of time. The vessel will 'serve as- a '
floating station, which can be picked ;
up for wireless communication. Th'e
ynlue of this form of postolllce U'Vx'- n
pected to be very great. Moreover, ly.
lug ut tho junction of the three great
thoroughfares of- Urltlsh nnd continent-
ul marine truffle, the stutlon should
prove particularly valuable In salvage
work. "The scheme-on the (uce of it
uppears to bo thoroughly pruct!cableM
and, If carried out, It should prove..to
bo' of considerable servlco In the marl
tlmo world,
