To have a clean cup and platter was more im- portant than to have a clean heart. In a fragment of Gospel found at Oxyrhyncus, Jesus is.reputed to have said to a Pharisee: “Thou hast wash2d in waters wherein dogs and swine have been cast, and wiped the outside skin which also harlots anoint and beautify, but within they are full of scorpions and all wicked- ness. But I have been dipped in the waters of eternal life which come {from the throne of God.” Pious plat- ‘ers, presented in pride, must be in- wardly purified. / Jesus pronounces three “woes,” griefs that like an avenging nemesis hang over men of such a character. (1) A “woe” against those who make a show of tithing the common garden mint and herbs and at the same time avoid the weightier matters of just re- lations to their fellow men and love to God (v. 42). We are not to neg- lect our churchly duties at all, but these cannot be substituted for righteousness (see Micha 6:8). (2) Don’t allow the merchant to do the ordering for you. For bits and stings of insects a salt ‘solution is helpful. If boiling water is poured over aj- pies the skins will come off easily. A pair of scissors will be found an endless convenience in the kitchen. A cold or cool bath is one of the best tonics to fortify us against tak- ing cold. * Try adding a fewk English walnuts to the orange gelatine.i It is delicious.

Real vs. Sham Lives (vv. 45 light brown toast in it. 54). The lawyers were the theologians, the expounders of the Mosaic law. Ev- | idently the words of Jesus produced hareat conviction. The word “repr-ach- est” (v. 45) means ‘to entreat spite fully,” and the probabilities are that he spoke to Jesus as if to rebuke him. Jesus at once pronounces three woes upon him and his class. (1) A “woe” because they laid burdens upon others which they themselves would not even touch with one of their fingers (Matt. 23:4). That is, they added to the law minute and troublesome ' details, which they declared to be more im- portant than the law itself. (2) (v. 47) A “woe” is pronounced upon them for honoring the dead prophets and at the same time rejecting and persecuting those that were living. To honor dead teachers, to praise the prophets of the past, those whom we cannot endure while living, is a form of hypocrisy which costs but little. It implies that had they lived in the days of their fathers their conduct would have been indifferent, yet they are with the livihg prophets, following the ex- ample of their fathers. God foresaw this (v. 49) and the faithful minister of his word must expect a like treat- ment (MK. 10:29, 30). (3) (v. 12) Tue third “woe” was pronounced against these religious teachers because, pos- sessing the key to knowledge, they neither entered themselves nor would they allow others to enter; “ye enter not in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering in to enter.” (Matt. 23:13, Am. Ry.). These law- vers, theologians, were professedly in- terpreters of the law, that law which ® as the foundation and bulwark of the | Jewish nation. In fact, however, they | had so obscured and “explained” that law as to leave men in darkness. { Supposed to lead men into truth, they | were shutting them out of the truth. { What a terrible indictment of many | of this present age. We quote from the letter of a Wis- i consin business man: “The average man is interested in the teachings of the Bible. If the Bible cannot stand upon its own feet, it is foolish to bol- ster it up by any personal ideas. We ! | make too many apologies for Scrip-* | ‘ures and do not stand squarely by vhat it teaches.” Not a few who oc- | cupy the position of teachers obscure the truth of God and they shut men every kitchen.

Try soaking bacon in cold water for three or four minutes before fry- ing; it will prevent the grease from running, A piece of white blotter placed un- der the table cloth where the flower vase stands in the center of the table will prevent any possible moisture from spoiling the surface of the table. When the laundress has finished with the boiled rtarch, do not throw it away, but keep it to pour into the water in which oilcloth or linoleum is wasned. It will keep them new and bright. To remove fruit spains from linen smear the stains over with some pure glycerin, leave it on for about one hour, then wash the article in warm, soapy water. If necessary, repeat a second time. The woman who does her own housework should realize the benefit derived from stretching out perfectly flat for ten minutes in the middle of the day. This gives perfect relaxa- tion and rests eyery muscle. The left-overs of the toilet soap, if saved, will make an excellent sham- poo solution. Melt them until a soft soap consistency, then add some wat- er and rub on the head; it will be found much easier to clean the scalp. ———— een eee.

Dearburi Getting Rid of Rats Without Poisoning. | An extensive produce grower in Denter county wrote to Prof. H. A. Surface, State Zoologist, Harrisburg, asking for information as to how to get rid of rats without the direct use of poison. He said, ‘‘We are exten- sively engaged in the produce business but large rats abound in our vicinity and are damaging our produce to an extent almost ruinous. We have tried all possible advice for their extermin= ation, bat to no avail. We have tried Rat Biscuits, Azoa, Arsenate of Lead and other deadly poisons, ferrets and dogs, but despite our efforts the rats are continually increasing and threas- e iing our business. large and seem to be poisen proof, Our celery trenches containing aboub 25,000 stalks of winter celery are in- fested with the rodents, and every day they are eating the hearts out of the same and causing decay.

The power of water is enormous. A tiny jet of water descending 1,609 feet, trayeling at the rate of 100 yards a second, cannot be cut into with an axe or a sword. It will fracture the best blades of Toledo steel. It will hurl an axe through an oak plank. It is quite impossible for a nan to cut this stream through. To compute the power of falling water it is necessary to multiply the volume of flowing water in cubic feet per minute by its weight, 62.5 pounds, and this product by the vertical height of the fall in feet, and divide by 33,000, the number of foot-pounds representing 1 h. p. for 1 minute.
