claim. It's the literal truth. For what
bread is to the body, that is Jesus Christ
to the soul.
Bread, is ale sufficient for life. It Is a
perfect food, containing all the elements
needed for nutrition. Man vvil thrive on
a bread diet. Nor. is it otherwise with
Jesus. In Him there is everything that
we need
FOR LIFE AND CHARACTER.
He is a covert from the tempest; rivers
of water in drought; loaves of bread in
famine.; the shadow-ofe. great lie& in a
weary land. For the polluted He is
purity; for the irritable He is patience;
for the. faint He is courage; for the weak
He is strength; for the ignorant He is
wisdom ; for the hungry He is food. .
God, who . knew the needs of our
bodies, stored in the wheat all nutritive
qualities for us to assimilate, accord-
ing to our need. Aride knoW;ing the
needs or bile --soielse He stored till the
elements required for .our spiritual nu -
triton in Christ, leaving us to appro-
priate them as we will:
Bread Must be appropriated before it
becomee life-giving. Very complicated
.is the,proceees of nuerition. It includes
peebenenoti, einastieetiene,,. , inealiOethia,

nonaesimilation, and nonassindlation is
physical weakness end decay. How-
ever much bread lies around. it does not
appease hunger unless it is appropri-
ated and dihested.
And what digestion is to food; that
devout and loving meditation on the
life, character, words and work of Jesus
is to our souls. In the one process there
is a vital union between
7°U EIDDIES ..ANIKIJB-RMPe; -
in the other, a vital union between our
spirits and the risen Christ. In the
former we extract the prineiple of life
from the • bread; in the latter the prin-
ciple of spiritual life from Christ Jesus.
Feeding upon Him, eie derive strength
to suffer and power to achieve.
But this text speaks of sacrifice.
'What is necessary for tthe golden wheat
to become bread? It must submit to the

HINTS FOR THE HOME.
When carving salmon and all short.
grained fish; cut it lengthwise; use a
broad fish slice to avoid breaking the
flakes.:
Rice is such a wholesome artiele of
diet that it -should more generally be
used. Simply boiled*and nicely dried it
Is excellent with hot meat, stewed fruit
and with cheese.
Hot water cans should always be
turned upside down to drain each tirno
after using, or they will quickly get
rusty and leak. .
An excellent floor polish tfor either
boards or linoleum can be mtiee from
candle ends melted and mixed with tur-
pentine. This preparation shouldbe of
the consistency of .thick cream.
To clean blacke lace rinse it in cold
tete and gin, then gently pull it out 'and
pin on a cloth to dry, If the lace Is
only crumpled, ironing it between tis-
sueRaper will stiffen it. ,
Clean our white felt as follows: Brush
tbe surface,quite free of dust, get some
powdered magnesia, and, with some
water, make it into a elite paste. With
emalFbrush smear the whole hat with
this paste. Dry thoroughly and brush
off the powder with a clean cJothes

As an illustration of the dtirability,
there is a story current that two suits

A GOOD WORD FOR THE TIGER.
British M. P. Would Prevent His WWI

'ro the long list Of 'pro -Zulus, pro.
Boors, progelahdis, and, nro-heepolos
must be added the pro -tiger.
Mr. Rees has appeared in the British
House of, Commons In the role of "the
tiger's friend." He caused someeannise-
ment by asking the Secretary for India
to refer to the Government of 'India ;the
question of the indiscriminate offer et
rewards to gain which professional
slaughterers destroyed these animals,
Mr. Bees mentioned that man-eaters,
were rare exceptions ainong tigers, and
that others of the species caused no
loss and danger to human life. '
"Pity the poor tiger." is the cry whiele
it is feared will never bc. properly ap-
prechteed by the natives of India. -Even
Mr. Morleycould not deerde to'cleariepion
the tiger. '1'41 cannot promise," he said,
"to address the 'Government of India in
theeeeenee suggested by Mr. Rees, nor do
I expeerthat they would share his,views
as to -the preservation of the tiger."
Mid; Rees, however, explained that
"no *ell -conducted tiger ever thinks et

"The natives just `shoo' thena off," he
continued, with the air of a snan who
had frequently taken part in the "shoo-

"Man-eaters ore comparothiely very
rare; and their itabitsi their lairs, and
all their movements are known to every

of a class of professional slaughterers.

POSERS FOR PALE PUPILS
SOME REMABKABLE QUESTIONS IN
SCII0OL EXAMS.
College of Preceptors Seems to Believe
That Children Are Well
. Infoontedte teed ,
The midsummer examination of the
College of Preceptors has provoked a
considerable amount of comment, says
an English exchange. Soma of the ex-
amination papers forwarded to us by
various amazed correspondents may ap-
pear to others of our readers to assume
a somewhat unusual amount of intelli-
gence, as well as of knowledge, on the
part of ten and eleven year old pupils.
• Possibly other _examination papers
make equal demands ran youth; but the
following geographioal questions in a
paper for eleven and twelve year old
candidates would strike ;several, elder
folk as "posers":
7. How is it that -
Verse 17. As he was going. forth into
the way -From 'some stopping place en
route to Jerusalem.
There ran ooe to hirn-This "one" Is
deseribed by Lulte as "a certain ruler,"
by which is probably meant an official
m
in a local synagogue. It is ore than
probable also that the man was a Pluer-
isee, and further on in our narrative we
learn, that he °possessed great wealth.,
'Kneeled to him -How much it meant
for the young Pharisee and ruler to do
this publicly we can better appreciate
when we remember that at this time all
the Jewish authorities were already
leagued against this teacher from Naza-
rene, planning his destruction.
Good Tettchee i'he duetomary re-
spectful address of a pupil to a dis-
tinguished rabbi.
18. Why -callest thou mee„good? none
is good save one, even God -Words
spoken prepaeatory to referring tlie
young man to the divine command-
ments themselves in answer to his
question. '
19, Thou knoevest the commendments
-Those commandments which belonged
to the law of the ono only absolutely
good Being, For two versions of the
decalogue see Exod. 20. 12-16 and
Deut. 5. 16-20.
20. Teacher-sWe note that, the re-
pealer' bearing of the young man to-
ward Jesus is maintained throughout
'the conversation.
,these things have I observed from
my yefeth-Actually, and in the most
conscientious manner, the*young man
had ordered his daily life in accordance
with these commandments. That he is
keenly conscious of a deeper need' is a
strong commentary ten the inedegniteY
of forformalobedience and -worship to
satisfy the deepest needs of the human
soul. , d , •
21. Looked upon him -His earnest-
ness and evident sincerity challenged
the more careful attention of Jesus, who
loved him for that earnestness, sincer-
ity, and longing for better things.
Whatsoever thou hast -His dress and
demeanor Indicated hie wealth and
social standing. ,
Coine, follow me -Part with your pre-
sent manner of life and become one cf
my -disciples like these.other men about
")02.
2. Jesus had rightly judged the case,
and had frankly pointed ,out to the
young men the barrier which existed
between himself and the goal whtch te
sought ; hence the young man's coun-
tenance fell at the geeing. His disap-
pointment was caused by his' failure to
obtain the object of his quest; his go-
ing away by what seemed to him the
imposstbility of fulfilling the conditions
set, by Thus.
24. For them that '1/4trust, rich.ese-
Words explanatory of the sense of the
preceding statement of Jesus. 'Seine
ancient manuscripts of ,Mark, howe-yee,
omit this clause.
25. Through a needles eye -Doubt-
less the actual eye of a needle is
Meant. We have here then, an Orien-
tal proverb setting forth. in the form of
rhetorical hyperbole, the. extreme diffi-
culty of the thing referred to.

ceedingly beside themselves, that le,
with, amazement.
Unto him -Seine. mantiscripts read

Then who can be ,av

ROMAN RELICS.
First Century DisCoveries in the North
of England.
The work ti excavating at Newsteadd
Fort, on the border of England an
Scotland, has recently" brought to light
many interesting objects from the period
of the Roman occupation.
They have been found in pits outside/
Rio fort, as well es within the ram-
paits, at depths varying .from 12 to BO
feet, and all of them were more or 'less
full of decomposed animal and vegetable
niatter•which has e, marked preservative
influence.
In many instances branches of birth
and hazel have been unearthed, with
the bark bright and silvery. Even a tiny
portion of an egg shell has been dist
tinguished, Some of theterticles pro-
bably date from the first century, one
being a bronze vase with a' single handle
11 inches high, and belonging to aetype
emanating from Southern Rely.
Mr, James Curie, who describes the
discoveties hi the "Scottish Historical
Review," thinks the Newstead finds
niay ultinuttelylorm a collection- of the
greatest archaeological value, as illus.
trative of the tile on the Roman frontier.
A most, valuable collection of pieces of
bronze armour. Was taken ',out, of one

fall blouses, eince the one critieal point
in faeliiiming them now is .safely aAtlea.
Sleetre6 are to be inadealong, and this
pertzeine not only to slefetwalets but to
all hinds, Even fancy eeparano blouses
for fall and winter wear will have long
sleedes, and lingerie waists for earine
fall uses are already coming, in whicier
the long, tight cuff -which will show
below the short -sleeved coat until the
summer suit has .been discarded -is the
most fanciful part•of the blouse. A. few
have been seen in which this onaamen-
tal undereleeve aocoMparded the waist
as a separate attachment. Gowns for
dressy wear from Paris also have lace
undersleeves fitting 'tight enough to the
forearm to permit the pulling' up o/ the
long gloves over. them.
The pleener ,shintiveatet eblouee _wiped
for early fall Vitae will be lie heavy
white cottons, embroidered linens.,
heavy striped mercerized cottons that
have the look of flannels,voiles, de-
laines, pretty figured challies, white
serge, and mohair, and more particu-
larly flannels. The flannels are 'once
moret to be in aggressively large stripe%
and plaids and the tartan colorand
roman stripes will be favorites, while
the simple white flannels with every,
Veriety ef stripe and -check which have
been so good in summer tailor suits
will be good enough to warrant those
who buy everything in off seasons itt
picking them up now in remnants.
"o LINGERIE wAisp -
win have another season for winter
wear, hue the newest and most desirable
ones are no longer of filmy thinness.
Instead, embroidery - Anglaise and
Frencli embroidery on Unclear linens
and on nutslins with only a small
amount of transp_arency are taking their
place. These are worn over silk slips 'of
stronger colors thanewere needed under
the thin -ones, for instance, cerise,
gren, light -blue, 'and even brown with
a bit of brown tulle, or evert velvet at
the collar. -
The woman who never misses the
little extras now uses this velvet touch
on all her fine witeoreWaists. A Fifth
Avenue dressmaker 'stopped one of her
customers the other day as she started
to put on her blouse and took posses-
sion of it long enough to pin in one of
the little outstanding white ruches and
to baste deftly over this a narrow black
velyet ribbon. There is a difference
even in the ruches that we wear, those
that stand out hoeizontally at the top ofe
the collar being the right kind, as they
make the neck look smaller, provided
the collar is drawnastight as it should
be. -
A bit of 'lingerie appears on the new
fall models of wool in the form ,..of col
lar and chernisene or in trimmings at-
tached to the waist iteelf. .A. dark blue
voile simply made shirtwaist to which
there was a corresponding skirt has a
round collar of embroidery Anglaise
which reaches to the ,shoulders, and the
sleeves around the upper 'part have a
band of, the same trimming stitched on. ,
A black tie was worn with this costume,
Ties come in black or dark silk to
finish, out a veaist stitched with the same
golor.. These have a square or round
motif of ,ernproidery set in tbe ends and
a turnover of corresponding embroi-
dery around the high stock. Lex ties
are to be used and help 'to form the
ornamentation of plainly made waists.
'Here is one way of attaching a king,
narrow n silk tie effectively. Set two
rings each side of the centre opening
to the waist,- fastening them at the top
edge. These are met fouror five inehes
down from the shoulder. Put the tie
around the neck and draw both ends
through one e ring :at the throat, then
separate them by drawing through the
two rings, and hring together again
through a -single ring in the middle and
set low on the bust. The' violated ends
are then spread out from thiserleen and
teach nearly to the .belt line. "ehette

with sailor waists and for these the
man's kerchief divided and , tacked
under the collars makes the prettiest
tie, either in silk 'or etedoredt bordered
cottonsie second- sketeh fee a veiling
waist in pale blue trimmed with black
taffeta, and stitched with black.. A black
belt of soft kid is used with it. -This
colored kid lett is the finish which
brings out, all these trim, neat waists 10
the Vest advantage, and Inveriably
should match the trimmings.
It pays to get one 'of good quality
and where one mist do duty black is
the best investment, with the tartan

Rio beauties • of the thicker .11ngerie

ther belt finish and eeem more in' place
with the thick every day serge skirt.
The last figure shows an attractive way
of making a waist in which there is a
band trimming to match the allover
embroidery. '
4'eliere is a feeling again for wearing a
small peplpm atteched to the shirtwaist
outside the skirt. These are eeeen on the
"outdoor shirtwaists" evilich .are made"annoet, in coat blouse fashion to go with
corresponding skirts. They are fitted
with dickey and collar of wash mater-
ial fastened in and are made in dark
