kitchen table more than half way up.

Round the table, after tt bad been
painted green, was nailed a green
ledge of wood to keep In the sand
qulto four inches deep, and table and
li dRe alike were lined with zinc. Clean
white sand was now distributed even

hugely enjoyed a game of "bolng at
the seaside" bringing their spades and
pails and making hillocks and water
ways on It. On other days the children
pretended that the table was a village,

about. Tho table was a success.

her reproachfully one day:

everybody will look round at me.' "

THE
TONGUE
By REV. L. W. COSNELL
Superintendent o( Men, Moody Blbls
Institute of Chicago
TEXT If any man offend not In word,
tho name In a perfect man, and all alito
to brttllo ths whole body. Jumes 8:2.
Speech Is a distinguishing gift of
man. 8am a witty uerman: -i win
believe thnl an
animal thinks
when he tells me
so." Tho world
would be a
strange place if
we could not talk,
ynt what a world
It is because we
can talk! The
difficulty of con
trolling speech is
pointed out in
our text, and
those who have
been striving
longest for per
fection appreci
ate most fully
this difficulty. It will be worth while
to follow the discussion of the tongue
which Is found in the succeeding
versos of tho third chapter of James.
Flrct of all, James speaks of the
power of this "little member which
boasteth great things" (vv. 3, 4). Like
the bit in tho horse's mouth which en
ubles us to turn the whole body, or
tho tiny rudder of the ship, which di
rects its courso through the stormy
deep, so the tongue Is a great power
In the guldanco of llfo. We marvel
when wo see the multitude swayed
by the speech of the preacher or the
voice of tho singer. We need only
to mention Magna Charta, the Declar
ation of Independence, the Emancipa
tion proclamation or Luther's Theses,
to be Impressed with the power of
even written words.
But James goes'on to speak of the
mlRchlcf which may bn roi;ght by
tho tongue (vv 6, tl). It Is like a lit
tle fire kindling a great forest. A
venomous tongue hurts not only oth
ers, but oneself; James says: "It do
ftleth the whole body," and wo may
be certain that so long as an evil
thought Injures tho spirit, we cannot
escape from our evil words.
Hedges About the Tongue.
An old writer says: "We may nee
the cunning and curious work of na
ture which hath barred and hedged
nothing in so strongly as the tongue,
with two rows of teeth and therewith
two Hps; bcBldos, she hath placed It
far from tho heart, that it should not
utter that which tho heart conceived."
James goes on to speak of the un
tamablenoss of the tongue (vv. 7, 8).
Every kind of beasts and birds, of
creeping things and things In the
sea, has been tamed by man, but the
tonguo can no man tame, although
Cod can do even this thing.
Even after regeneration, wrong hab
its of speech will assert their sway.
How easily the oath eprlngs to the
Hps of tho oforctlmo blasphemer!
Finally, James speaks of the In
consistency of the tongue (vv. 9-12).
Therewith we bless God and yet curse
men, mado in his imngo; as one has
put It, such ahuslvo railing against
men Is like spitting on the statuo of
the emperor whom wo profess to
honor. Fven nature rebukes us for
such Inconsistency, for no fountain
sends forth both sweet water and bit
ter. Aesop, the writer of fables, was a
slave. He was once ordered by his
master to procure the best things in
the market for dinner, and served
course after courss of tongues. He
nrrjued: "Is thoro anything better
than a tonguo? Is not the tonguo the
bond of civil society, tho organ of
truth and reason and tho orgnn ol
our praise and the adoration of the
pods?" Tho slave's master directed
thnt the next day he should buy the
worst-things he could find, and again
ho brought tongues. This time he
reasoned: "The tongue Is surely the
worst thing In the world. It is the
instrument of all strife and conten
tion, the Inventor of lawsuits, and the
source of divisions and wars; It Is
the organ of error, of lies, of calumny
and blasphemies."
Skimming ths Milk.
This inconsistency of the tongue
appears in the lives of those who
even do many deeds of kindness.
This was quaintly set forth by an old
lady who said to ber grandchildren:
"If you're going to give me a pan of
milk, don't skim it first" They found
she meant that whon a favor was
done for her, Bhe disliked to have it
spoiled by an ungracious word. "An
other errand? I never go downtown
without half a dozen commissions."
The boy gets the book end really
doesn't mind, but he has skimmed the
milk. "These' gloves ripped agtiln!
It seems they always need mending
whon I am in a hurry." She really
wants to keep the gloves neat, but she
skims the milk.
What a solemn word James speaks
In the flrfct shapior of his eplRtle (v.
26): "If any man among you Beemeth
to be religious and bridleth not his
tongue, but decelvcth his own henrt,
tlits man's religion is vain." How
glad we should bo that wo have our
Helper, One of whom It Is said that
"ho opened not his mouth." when It
wns a time for silence, but of whom
It Is said also that tho peoplo "won
dered at the gracious "words which
proceeded out of bis mouth."
Watchfulness Enjoined on All.
Tho children of God, If they right
ly take their fntnor's mind, are al
ways disburdened of perplexing care
fulness, but never exempted from dill
tent watchfulness. Archbishop Leigh
too, Compassion for Sinner.
We should not Judge a sinner, but
rather lament his sins and have com
passion on him; since, whilst the
grace of God exists, he can always
turn to th Lord and repent Savonarola,

-Will. 4:8.
The '.eBsons for tho pant three
months extend over a period of per
haps flftocn yeurs, from A. D. 37 or 40
to A. D. 62 or 65. It Is tho history
of an ever expanding church and the
ever widening Influence of tho work
which Jesus began and continued to
do after his resurrection, through the
Holy Spirit. No adequate or proper
revlow can be conducted without the
aid of a map. If none Is available,
take a lnrgo sheet of manlla paper
and let some of the cuolars make
an outline map showing the strategic
centers, Jerusalem, Damascus, Antl
och and as far west as Phllippl. clso
the country Involved, tho ccast lino
of the "Great Sea," etc. It is a good
Idea not to locate the chief cities, but
have pupils attach to the map small,
round, rod and white stickers on
which might be printed the name of
each city. Then other pupils might
trace on the map the course of Paul's
Jotrncys. If all of this work Is done
In tho presence of the entire school It
will aid greatly in holding attention
as well as placing beforo the schol
ars a vlslblo delineation of the lands
Involved In this portion of sacred his
tory. The most outstanding incidents
which have been studied during the
paBt Quarter, such as tho conversion
of Saul, the healing of Aeneas, the
raising of Dorcas, Peter's visit to Cor
nelius, etc., could also bo located
geographically by means of thumb
tacks with tags attached. A most in
terestlng review would bo to organ
ize In the school a number of travel
club3. Let each club come prepared
to give a "travelogue," or travel talk,
describing some of the chief events,
such as the Damascus Journey, a
Journey to Joppa, to Cyprus, to lconl
um, from Antioch to Jerusalem, etc,
Let the pupils write out their ac
counts and as each is written have
some scholar Indicate on the map the
places involved, and others bang up
In plain sight of the entire school a
ploce of cardboard bearing a single
sentence Indlcat've of the leading les
son of the event' described. This lat
ter will mean to use a sentence or
parts of sentences as: "We are men
of like passions as you." The ele
ment of contest could be employed by
having all the pupils In a given de
partment bring such sentences relat
ing to the lessons on cards, and let
that scholar who can bring the great
est number of sentences be declared
the winner. The teacher must of
course holp materially In such a con
test by direct suggestion and hy en
couraging the pupils to undertako the
ta3k before them.
For the adult and older 'teen age
classes tt might be well to assign to
different scholars a number of great
problems which have been treated In
the lessons of the quarter, and let
each come to the class prepared to
read a brief essay or to discuss the
subject assigned, relating It of courso
to tho work of the review. (Lesson
I.) "How the Holy Spirit converts
men today." (Lesson V) "How can
the church be aroused to the great
work of missions." (Lesson VIII)
"The Perils of Popularity." (Lcs3on
XI) "The conditions of salvation" and
so on. Another Interesting plan
would be to have different members
of tho class prepare at homo a brief
synopsis of tho chief characters of
the quarter's lessons: Peter. Dorcas,
Como'.lus, Rhoda. John, Mark, llama
bas. Silas, Timothy, Luke. Lydia, the
Philipplan Jailor. Of course Paul wii!
have to bo considered from many dif
ferent viewpoints: Paul, the perse
cutor; Paul, the missionary, the or
ganizer, the writer, the great Chris
tian hero. Either assign such sub
jects or allow the pupils to select.
The entire book of the Acts Is found
in miniature in ch. 1:8 and on the
map above referred to it might be of
interest to draw a series of concentric
rings marking each advance. Or on
a plain sheet of paper. Ignoring the
map, draw the rings, the center to
represent Jerusalem, the rest Judea
or Palestine, the nev.1 Syria, the next
Asia Minor, and the last one Greeco
for that Is as far as we have gonn
during the past quarter. Er.cb of the
circles can be filled with brief state
ments or Interesting Information. If
the circles be placed side by side they
can bo divided Into four quarters.
In one quarter place the names of the
chlcr persons Involved. In the second
the principal events, in tho third the
places and in the remaining circle of
the dates.
Such a use o. charts is valuable In
that It appeals to the eye. Is a real
test of knowledge and helps to sys
tematize our information tor future
use.
The facts of the quarter are about
as follows:
Lesson 1. The Risen Christ by his
overwhelming glory conquers his bit
ter enemy, Saul.
lesson II. Men are healed and the
dead raised by the powor of the Ris
en ChrlBt.
Lesson III. Peter, the Jew, is pro
pared and Cornelius, the Gentile, is
called to a momentous conference.
Lesson IV. Jew and Guntile alike
receive the gospel and are sealed by
the Holy Spirit.
Lesson. V. The Risen ChrlBt by bit
Btigol delivers his servant. Peter.
Lesson VI. The Holy Spirit calls

PROHIBITION FOR KEEP3.
Below are given some of tho rea
sons why Russia will never repeal Its
prohibitory laws, based on statements
made by Ernest Gordon, who has re
cently visited the country:
In the Insanity hospital in connec
tion with the northorn Russian army
there has been only one caso of alco
holic insanity in a year. Such hos
pitals during tho Russo-Japaneso war
were filled with alcoholic innano.
In one town money grew so plenti
ful that the villagers clubbed togchcr
and bought a movie. Charging a small
admission fee they grew so embar
rassed with tho riches that they pur
chased a brand new fire cnglno, "the
village pride."
The Plrogoff society, the leading
medical association of Russia, has
heartily indorsed prohibition, declar
ing that "a whole mass ct facts alio-
ub to believe that prohibition hns de
creased sickness (especially venereal
and mental), lessened Arcs, suicides,
crime, accidents and increased mate
rial and industrial prosperity."
There Is a general feeling through
out Russia that it is "owing to the
temperance movement," that the bad
effects of the war are not felt
One peasant writes of the results of
prohibition as "wonderfully good. Joy
everywhere) Quite habitual drunk
ards are well dressed now and have
repaired their houses."
SETTING THE PACE.
Refarrlng to tho popular belief that
the metropolitan centers are citadels
of corruption upon which no impres
sion can be made, the Union Signal
says that this "big city bugaboo" Is
cow losing its terrors. It points to
New York's board of health, to Chi
cago's Sunday closing, to Philadel
phia's stand against tho uso of nlco
hollc drinks by its city employees, and
remarks that the public will look ex
pectantly to Boston, St. Louis and
Baltimore for some spectacular move
ment which will excel the reforms of
tho other three. "Meanwhllo," It says,
"in the great cities of the Pacific
coast, Scattlo and Portland, and in the
municipalities of the middle West,
Denver and Des Moines, prohibition
is not only demonstrating Its success
as a panacea for civic Ills, but has
reached a stago of popularity where
the men who wroto and orated agalnBt
it a few months ago, are now eloquent
ly insisting that from time immemo
rial they have been its ardent and
self-sacrificing advocates."
EXPECT BETTER TIMES.
'There have been many dire predic
tions regarding tho disaster that Is to
follow the departure of tho saloon In
wet territory In this state, but gener
ally speaking no delusions are held
along this line by the moro prominent
business men of Idaho," says the EoIeo
News. "While they look for a tempo
rary depression prior to the readjust
ment, they expect nftcrwards Impetus
In business conditions and even better
times than before the saloon became
extinct. Tho fact that much of Idaho
has been dry for years and business
conditions in tho dry territory have
even been better In some instances
than In the wet territory, lends many
business men to believe that tho sa
loon Is not so paramount a factor and
that with a readjustment the lost rev
enue from it will not bo missed."
A FINANCIAL BENEFIT.
West Virginia saved $G7,5C0 last
Christmas time through a docreaso In
murders. Mr. S!m Irion, secretary of
the Charleston Business Men's asso
ciation, cites statistics showing that
for 33 years there has been an aver
age of 17 murders In tho state during
the Christmas holidays, all of them
traceoblo cith'ir directly or Indirectly
to Whisky and Its evil influences. This
Christmas there wcro only two mur
ders as a result of drinking. The
average murder trial In West Vlrgh.la,
It is stated, costs $i,690. Seventeen
murder trials therefore cost the state
$76,500, Two cost about JD.C00, a sav
ing ot approximately $G7,D00.
DESTRUCTIVE IMPLEMENTS.
Some manufacturer ot boozo tools
for the home in turning out cocktail
shakers made In "exact facsimile" of
the shrapnel shell cases Europe uses.
These trig implements of destruc
tion are shown In one of Now York's
Fifth avenue shop windows as an at
tractive "novelty" for shoppers. The
people who thought of adapting shell
cases to booze have grasped a pro
found symbolism. The cocktail is about
as deadly an explosive as the shrapnel,
only Its time fuse is rather long. We
hardly expected the liquor folks to ad
vertise this resemblance. Collier's
Weekly.
DOWN GLASSESI
The London Spectator says: "We
must fight the Germans with both
hands and not with one hand grasp
ing a glass cf beer or spirits." And
the New York Independent properly
asks: "If a man needs two hands to
fight with successfully, how can he get
along effectively with fewer to work
with? If a nation at war cannot spare
a band to hold the liquor glass, how
can a people at pcaco?" And then It
sensibly says: "Someone should move
to amend the 'Down Classes' program
by striking out the word 'temporary.' "
SHIFTS RESPONSIBILITY.
"We had to do it (discontinue
liquor advertising). Wo consider our
selves as -being in partnership with
every business which we advertise,
and the liquor partnership Is one for
which we do not care to carry auy
further responsibility." New York
Tribune.
8ALOON HELPERS. '
"Next to the drinker the say-nothing
man or woman and tho do-nothing
man or woman Is the most valuable
helper the saloons have."
JUSTICE TO THEM
MIDDLE-AGED MEN NEED FEAR
NO LONGER FOR THEIR JOBS.
Noted Physician Says Big Business
Hut Learned Value of Matur
Judgment and Plodding Stead
iness In Workers,
American industry can no longer
dispense with the mlddlo-agod work
ers nor even with those verging on
old ago, writes the noted physician,
Dr. I. Madison Taylor. Midillo age
and even old ago need no longer dread
the Junk heap on which big business
previously proposed to scrap all but
the moat energetic of the population.
Llttlo more thari a year has elapsed
since American business parlance be
gan to forget Its phrase, "an old man
of forty." Little more than a year
may elapse before it shall have adopt
ed the rhraso, "the young man of
fifty." Times are changing, and men
with them.
Every Indication of current Indus
trial, economic and commercial condi
tions evidences the Imminent neces
sity on tho part of 100.COO.000 compos
ing tho population of the continental
United States, of increasing enormous
ly their productive capacity and, nec
essarily, their Individual efficiency.
Tho lesson is one that has been In
culcated, in various forms of admoni
tion, throughout the past year by stu
dents of the European war and of tho
economlo conflict which must follow
its conclusion.
Llttlo more than ten years have gone
slnco, throughout the range of "big
business," the flat wont forth that this
Is the day of the young men. In many
Instances employees of undoubted loy
alty and completo proficiency were
dismissed or denied advancement sole
ly on tho score of an age limit which,
too frequently, was set at a ludicrous
ly low appraisement.
Even 40 years of live and fruit
ful activity were supposed to be sufll
dent to Incapacitate a man for tho
Initiative demanded by our "more
modern" business methods. Grlovous
wrong was done large numbers of ma
ture Intelligences whose sobriety of
Judgment more than compensated for
the Inappreciable abatement of their
dynamic energy.
Tho present Insistent demand foi
workers of all classes has, to a note
worthy extent, swept aside tho erro
neous verdict of the "big business" of
tho past decade. The conditions of the
Immediate future make certain the
utilization In some form or other
of all of the mental and physical re
sources of our peoplo, If their Indus
tries are to survive in the approach
ing struggle between European and
American Industries.
Yot It remains. In the pitiless light
of that brief tradition existing long
enough to establish a precedent still
respected for men past the first flush
of their early vigor to realize the con
ditlons under which, if at all. they are
to come Into their own and nro to
hold It henceforward.
If, In our industries, we are to
meet successfully the bitter competi
tion Impending, not only must our ex
ecutives utilize all tho labor energy
and skill at their disposal, but the
men of middle age must do their ut
most to keep themselves at their best
How shall they do It? As a practical
physician, I should ndvlRO the average
mlddlo-alted man, for his first Balva
Hon, to resolve not to squander effort
Ho must concentrate; ho must refrain
from assuming useless burdens, how
ever tempting they may be. Ho must
limit his expenditure of energy to tho
work which he hns In hand and limit
his appetites to tho gratification of
thoso only which shall conserve his
working powers.
Mlddlo age, wisely conserved, need
not dread comparison with youth's
strength weukened by youth's laviBh
ness.
Go Into German workshops Into
any industrial organization in Ger
manyand you will have visual dem
onstration of the fact that the men
moat treasured aro the men of mid
dle ago and. frequently, old age. These
men usually evidence a plodding stead
lneos which Implies less initiative
than is to be found in Americans of
corresponding years. But the lauded
and envied German efficiency has
proved their very steadiness, their In
defatigablencss, their assured export
ness to be qualities more than com
pensating for the "ginger" of more
youth.
Heads Up!
"An expert automobile driver of my
acquaintance," Bays Frederick Uphara
AdamsMn American Magazine, "has
coined an Injunction which might well
be adopted by all drivers pending the
adoption of tho reforms outlined. Most
of thoso who risk their lives crossing
eets between intersections do so
with their heads down, their half-
closed eyes fixed on th?lr foct. After
successfully dodging such trespassers,
or stopping In time to save them from
Injury, my friend good-nnturcdly sings
out: 'Heads up, friend!'
"Few take offense at this cheerful
admonition, and, as a rule, they lift
their heads, Bquare their shoulders,
and briskly tako an alert way across
the street and out ot danger."
Knowledge Is Power.
It is true that knowledge is power,
but how to use this power Is another
question, and means the learning of
another lesson. The Persians have
this significant and clover saying: "It
takes ten pounds of common Bcnso to
tarry one pound of learning." As
common sense is not so very common
after all, It will mean a diligent use
of the moans to gather ten pounds to
carry tho one pound of learning, but Jt
can be done. How much better to do
It, than to loso the power of knowl
edge, or waste tho learning bo hard
to gain.
Safety First.
He was on trial for bigamy.
"What," queried the Judge, "ever in
duced you to marry 14 wives?"
"Superstition, your honor," repllod
the prisoner. "Thirteen, you know, is
considered an unlucky number."
When Greek Meets Greek.
Two business men famous for their
acumen and keenness in the marts
of trade were wont to meet on the
golf links every Saturday afternoon
In friendly rivalry. It was known that
thoy did not discard professional eth
ics In playing the game, and they
watched one another very closely for
Infractions of the ni'e. A ball was
driven out of bounds and the driver,
after searching for it earnestly, finally
gave up, and, slipping a new ball In
Lis trousers, he cautiously let It drop
out by his foot and nicked It ud auick
ly with a cry of delight.
Oh, hero It Is!" he Bald.
You're a liar!" said his companion
morosely. "I've been standing on It
for ton minutes." Harper's Weekly.

BEST REMEDY FOR SORES,
A VIRGINIAN WRITES
Mrs. C. A. Butler, Salem, Va., writes:
"I can safely say that Hancock Sul
rhur Compound is the best remedy I
have ever used In my family for sores.
One of my llttlo boys, 8 years old,
had a solid sore all over face. We
tried different kinds ot medicine, but
none seemed to do any good. Our
son, 19 years old, had a sore on his
leg for 3 months and nothing did him
any good. We used Hancock Sulphur
Compound on both and it did Its work
quickly and in not over a week both
wero well."
