PREACH um GOSPEL.
What a lesson do these illustrious
benefactors of the human race teach
us 1 HOW they study and investi-
gate and labor to alleviate suffer-
ing and increase the longevity of
mankind 1 And when any of them
discovers a remedy for disease or a
means of removing deformity how
eagerly he makes the discovery
known that all the world ina.y
share in the benefit 1 In our bands
we have a revelation of infinitely
greater value. That* discoveries. can
at the best prolong life only a few
years, while the gospel of Jesus
Christ is the gospel of eternal life
and the remedy for the universal
malady of sin. Yet there are among
us men calling themselves Christians
who make no effort to publish the
knowledge of that remedy. They
say, "If the ChineSe are not willing
to receive our •gospel. missionaries,
then let those missionaries stay at
home. Let the Chinese hordes grovel
and die ! Let the human streams of
heathen life become choked with
moral vermin 1 It is their own
lookout, not ours I" I tell you to-
day that Christian.. America's fo-
reign obligations an never be can-
celed until Jeeus Christ is preached
to all people. Where we have now
one inissionary in the dark conti-
nents we should send a thousand;
where we have one gospel messen-
ger now for a hundred thousand
people we should have so great a
number that every foreign town and
village, as well as every city, should
be persuaded. to receive the open
Bible and to study the word of
God. • Christian America will not be
free from responsibility until the
gospel of the Lord Jesug is preacher]
unto all peoples. If those peoples
receive it not, then they, not we,
must bear the responsibility.
America is indebted to foreign
lands in a commercial and an artis-
tic sense as well as in a moral and
spiritual sense. Some political
speakers love to boast that com-
mercially we are indepeodent ot the
world. They assert it would make
very little difference to us whether
or no foreign countries held any
trade relations with us at all. But
this is not true. You are a wealthy
man. You invite xne to your home
some night to a banquet. I accept.
As I sit waiting for the other guests
to arrive I say: "Mr. So-and-so,
this is a beautifullydesigned home.
Where did your architect get the
idea?" You answer: "The plans of
this house are not his ideas. He
merely worked them out in detail
after I had described them. Some
years ago, while I was in England,
• came across a beautiful country
home. I then said to myself that if
I should ever have money enough I
would build a house upon that
plan. This home is the result of
my resolve made at thal time."

$01101 Testirriony of Such Case
in England.
. Jatues It. Williamson, alant-e
egu road, Lower Edmonton, Len -1
dou, writes to an n11041 paper: It
will be of interest to some of your
readers to leant that Mr. William
Tebb presided at the sixth annual
meeting of the London Association
for the Prevention of Premature
Burial, Dr. Iroolcer read the report.
Dr. J. Brindley James said be was
always impressing upou his medical
colleagues the necessity for subject-
ing a body to a number of tests be-
fore death was certified. The best
proof was putrefaction where death
had not occurred. Bodies should be
temporarily removed to "waiting
mortuaries," as was done in Ger-
many. A lady in the meeting de-
clared that, an hearing news of the
loss of her property, she went into
violent hysterics for two hours, and
then was thought to be dead. Atter
being lett for twenty-four hours, she
was taken out of bed, rolled -on the
floor, and needles and pins stuck in-
to her. lieXt morning one of the
servants, on looking at her body on
the bed, thought it had moved. The
doctor was sent for again, but he
certified that she was undoubtedly
dead, and so the cofbn was ordered.
Three hours afterwards her daughter
said: "I doe't think mother, is
dead," and Applied some brandy to
'saidthe lady, and added: "That
the cold lips. "Then came to,"
was five years ago. I have rny
death certificate at home. Al-
though I could not move, I could
hear everything. I heard the men
take my measurement for the cof-
fin." Another lady at the meeting
testified that she knew a girl at
Kensington who "came to" after be-
ing prnommed dead, and who ra-
members hearing the doctor say:
"Ale poor thing1 now she is out of
her suffering." One trembles to
think of how many sucb cases re-
/nein undiscovered, and the unspeak-
able horror of returning to con-
sciousness boxed up in a coffin, six
feet 'underground, to stiffer a mar-
tyrdom of mental and physical ag-
ony without the faintest hope of res-
cue or escape. The object of the
above association is to put an end
to such terrible and preventible pos-
sibilities.
Japan is a land without domestic
animals. It is this lack which
strikes the stranger so forcibly in
looking upon Japanese lancacapes.
There are no cows, , there are but
few horses, and these are imported
mainly for the use of foreigners. The
freight carts in the city streets are
pulled and pushed by coolies, and
the pleasure caeriages are drewn
by men. There are.but few dogs,
there are no sheep, and wool is not
used in clothing, silk and cotton
being the staples. There are no pigs
—pork is an unknown article of diet
—there are no goats, or mules, or
donke;c-s. Wild col trials there are,
however, and in particular bears of
enormous size.

USEFTIlt HUNTS.
Do not allow children to eat fruit
skins. They are frequently filled
with microbes which find in the
stomach conditions, favorable to
their development. The downy
bloom of the peach is especially li-
able to contain these microbes. All
fruit should be washed before going
to the table. Grapes may be easily
cleansed by holding each -bunch up-
side down under the celd water fau-
cet.
Here is a delicious relish from
England: Shake about four ounces
of soft cheddar cheese—best dairy
cheese is an excellent stibstitute —
and mix to a paste with an ounce
of butter, a tablespoonful of salad

RELIEVEtel CHOKING.
Raleing the left arra as high as
you can will relieve eholeing muck
more rapidly than being thumped on

one eltould know it, for often a per -

there is no One near to thump ,hlm.
Frequently al, male, and when they
are at play, children get cholied
while eating, and the eustomary
manner et 3,e1leving them is to slap
them sharply on the back. Teo et-
ifeet. of this is of setting the ob-
struction tree, so that. it can be

brought about by raising tbe left

continued Mr. Potter, "1 wanted' to
spend six weeks at Monte Carlo, and
• your mother preferred to spend the
time in Paris. It's thirty odd years
ago, but 1 well remember the argu-
ments we ha.d before 1 compromis-
ed."
"How did you do it?" asked the
son.
"We spent five weeks and a hall in
Paris," said Mr. Potter, "and from
Friday night till Monday morning
in Monte Carlo."
BUSINESS -LIKE.
The doctor hurried ia and called
the chemist to one side.
"I've just been called to attend the
Croesus baby," be said, "and I've
given a prescription that calls for
nothing but paregoric. When they
send it over here you must tell them
it will take at least an hour to make
it up and the cost will be seven and
sixpence. That's the only way to
make them think Pin any good, the
medicine's any good, and you're any
good, and I want to keep their pat-
ronage."
TOO ANCIENT.
"Why did Jones break off his en-
gagement with Miss Oldacres?"
Jackson -- "On account of her
past." "
"What was the matter with it'?"
"Nothing, .only he thought it was
too long."
Visitor—"Well, my little man, do
you like going to school?" Little
Man (aged six)—"Yes; but T don't
like staying there."
The first chapter in a novel re-
cently published contained the fol
lowing: "And so the fair girl con-

Rom. xiv, 19, "Let us, therefore.
follow Atter the things which make
for peace." In the daily life, while
seeking to live wbolly for God and
manifest the life of Christ in our
mortal bodies, we ere living not on-
ly before God, who reads our hearts
alaP never misjudges us, but wo are
also living before people who, not
being able to read the heart, are
very apt to raisiedge us and stumble

Cor. dIi, 1-13). Golden Text, 2 Cor.
xiii, 13, "Now abicleth faith, hope,
love, * * * but the greatest of
these is love." It is still the con-
trast between what 1 myself may do
and that which Christ will do in
me. Ilowever much X may do that
seems good, it will count for noth-
ing it it is 1 that do it, but God,
who is love and was manifest in
Christ and has emne to live in the
believer, desires to work In and
through us, and that will stand.
Lesson Lae—Paul and Apollos
(Acts xviii, 24, to xix, 0). Golden
Text, Luke, xi, 13, "If ye, then, be-
ing evil, know how to give good
gifts unto your children, how much
more shall your Heavenly Father
give the Holy Spirit to them that
ask Him?" A mart mighty in tho
Scriptures may be instructed more
perfeztly by very bumble people, and
however much people may believe
there is a very great lack entil they
aro filled with the Spirit.
Lesson X.—Paul at Ephesus (Acts
xix, 13-20). Golden Text, Acts xix,
17, "The nanie of the Lord Jesus
was magnified." The name of .the
Lord Jews, that worthy name (Jas.
ii, 7), that glorious and fearful
name, the Lord thy God (Deut.
xxviii, 58), is not to be trifled with
or mocked or despised, for the Lord
can use the devil himself to chasten
saah, and He will overrule even the
mockery and blasphemy of the wick-
ed to promote His glory.
Lesson XL—The riot at Eplieeus
(Acts xixe 20-40). Golden Text, Ps.
xxxi, 23, "The Lord preserveth the
faithful." When the preaching of
the gospel takes away money from
the pockets of the ungodly, we shall
quickly hear from them, and they
will want no more of us or our gos-
pel. But this same thing is often
seen among these who bear the
name of °lutist, an,d the cold sboul-
der has been turned upon a mission-
ary lest he might want an offering
from the people. We seem to know
nothing of the love of Cluest, who
