His presence with them for two or three years was not a sufficient qualification; they must receive in fullness the same power ‘which wrought in Himself, ‘and this could if: Bo% ke till He was glorified” (John vii., 39). 5. ‘‘For John truly baptized with ‘water; but yeshall be baptized with the Hol Ghost not many days hence.” ‘As to the Spirit's (Conpeetion with Christ see Mark i,, 18; Acts 38; Lukelv:, 1; Math. xii., 28; Hsb. ix. 5 34, Rom. viti., 11. And ‘if Christ’ Himself was powerless, apart from the Spirit, how much more are we? Sea the di erence be- tween an ordinary believer and ‘one filled with the Spirit, in. Peter before and after Pentecost; observe also that it is. as much disobedience not to. be filed with the Spirit ast is to be drunk with wine (Eph: ¥.,18)., 6. “When they therefore were come to- gether, they asked of Him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore Ain the kingdom to Israel?” He had told them that they were foolish not to believe hy thay the. prophets had spoken, and He had also : opened their understanding that they might understand the Scriptures (Luke xxiv. 25, 43), so that this question was not from blind ‘and carnal men; as many think, The king- | dom of which the prophets are full is a king- dom to be restored to Israel, and such great Promises as Isa. §x.07¢ xxiv., 33; xxxV,, 10; 21: der, 1ii 117, 18: xxiii, § 6; xxxi 85, 36: Fzek. xxxvii,, ot, 2, ‘and a host: of otiiers, have no reference to the church, but to the kingdom for which the apostles rightly looked. “7. vAnd He said unto them, 1t is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in.

The natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness unto him (I Cor, ii., 14), so some mockingly. said that these men were drunken; but Peter called there attention to the words of one of their prophets with svhich they ought to have been familiar, and addi: pe some other quotations from the law and the Psalms, He preached unto them Jesus and the resurrection.

AN EASY WAY TO CLEAN SILVER. ¢The housekeeper who wears out her “patience and muscle in cleaning’ silver “with whiting and a brush or any of the pastes and “powders with which the market is full, has my sincere sympathy,” is the cpinion of a woman who is always on the'lookout for the easiest way to do things. ' “I long ago learned that the expert, thié dealer and the chemist have nice ‘little ways, which we of the household brigade would do well to find out, and one day one of these people gave me a point which I have ever since ‘found to be a great advantage. By one of these simple and manageable processes, I can, with the help of an ordinary assist- ant, clean my entire household silver im half an hour, and this is the way I do it: : “Iiput eight quarts of water into a kettle and add half a pound of sal soda, and let this come to a boil. © Have also a kettle containing about the same quan- tity of clean, hot, rather strong soapsuds. ‘Dip each piece quickly into the soda ‘water, and immediately remove to the suds, rinsing very thoroughly, then dry as quickly as possible with a soft ‘linen cloth. No injury to the silver need be apprehended unless the pieces are per- migted to remain for an unnecessary are very much blackened and discolored, they may be redipped after thoroughly ringing and drying. I have (done ‘my silver in’ this way for years: some of it is sterling and the remainder plate. I never fail in the most excellent results. = Of course; in this ‘as’ well ay reverything \ else; a little practice will make the task ‘| ‘easier and ‘more’ expeditious; but there is noné' of 'the wearisome, vexatious rub- bing, which “attended the old whys of Polishing thes. necessary. articles.” +A HOT: WEATHER VEGRTABLE. The possibilities.of the cucumber, ex- cept for picking or: salads, are little un- derstood; © It is’ extellentinsoup, as well ‘ways. Cucumber S3ip.- Chit ote large, or twa medium-sized cucumbers into thin slices, strew.salt over them, and nl=ce between two plates to drain. Put “them into a saucepan, with a quart and half a pint of some white stock, either chicken. or veal, and simmer gently, without reducing the quantity, for forty minutes. Season “With galt and a little cayenne; thicken’ with ground rice, ‘or arrow-root, wet with milk, and, as soon as it has boiled up, draw to the side of the fire; add half a pint of hot milk and the beaten ‘yolks of two eggs. . Serve: at once... The safest way to add eggs to any hot liquid is to turn a little of ‘the latter slowly into the bowl containing the yolks, beating the white. When the bowlis full, turn it all into the vessel containing the rest, still beating, and wken thoroughly hot pour into the tureen. Stuffed Cucumbers—There are several ways of preparing these, Peel two large ones, and with a sharp knife cuf out a piece from the side. With a small tea- “spoon remove the seeds and fill with nice forcemeat of any kind; replace the piece and tie securely. with - stout. white thread. . Line the bottom of a saucepan with thin slices of bacon und veal, lay on the cucumbers, then another layer of veal and bacony: three new carrots, scraped, three small onions,and 48 many turnips; cover with stock or water and simmer until: all are tender. Thicken the.gravy and pour, it around the meat and vegetables after they are neatly dished. " Season, ‘when about half done, with salt and pepper. Another way is to cut them in halves, take out the seeds parts of bread crumbs and chopped mar- Tow, well seasoned with salt and pep- per. Tie the halves together, lay on a baking dish, nearly cover with meat gravy, and bake until tender. A good substitute for meat gravy is a brown “drawn butter. to! ‘quarters lengthwise, dredge ‘with flour, season, and fry lightly in hot but- ter; put them in a saucepan, with: some: good brown gravy and stew slowly un til tender. Add the least trifle of sugar and a teaspoonful of vinegar to the the cucumbers. Sometimes an equal amount of small button onions are stewed with the quarters of cucumbers. — American Agriculturist. !
