Prank Do Witt 'Talmage preach - ad frosa the following text : Psalm xxiii, 2, "As the eyes of a maiden Q' the band. of her mistreSs." • t the housekeeper as well as servant eon be negligent in her Y there is no doubt. The psalm- ist, as a Nair/teal diagnostician of the heart's vveaknosses, asserts it. He .figuratively seems to platet. the texiatreas as a prototype beiore her domestics, Then, as a young artist orostees the epee to study at the feet of the old masters and sits day 4n and day out copying a Raphael's "Sistine Madonna" or a Paul Vero- nese's "Last Sulam" or a Iteubens' "Dated -it From the ()rose" or a Miehaol Angelo's "Leet Jedeanent,'' -She psalmist raises the mistrees Up- on a pedestal as a model for the servants. Day in and day out the ructions of tho,. parlor are being 'du- plicated in the kitchen. Adam Clarks the great commentator, in- terprets those words ;of my text in the following way : "As servants look to thole inasters and Mistresses to see how they do their work, that they may du it in the same way," so iney it'e correct _some of the evils found 111 the kitchen by exposing the evils hs'acticed in the parlor. All virtues are not clothed in broad- cloth. • AR feminine unfaithfulness and injustice do not warm them- seenear a kitchen stove or editor ins'e stupid and stolid head with a wait -rem' cap or neetle in the sel- fish heart of the girl who., wearing a nurse's apido, pushes the baby's carriage along the •avenue. IS the head 'of .the house wishes her ser- • vants to be faithful and true to her theit she must .first set an ekample -of faithfulness. She inest be true and kind, and •loving and Christian - like to her servants and to all the people with whom she c.crmes in con- tact in her clumeetic walk of daily life. INCULCATE HONESTY I3Y PRE- CEPT. The housekeeper is her servant's model. That implies that the mis- tress roast be honest if eke wants lecte• servants to be honest. Plato, ii‘ tliNthiloeopher, once tried to con - \Tee the idea that an evil man's ads could be concealed, at least i a time. He illustrated this thought by the story of the fabled -Gyges' ring, which could make tile false actions of the wearer invisible to the naked eye, "Thus," wrote Plato the Clreek, "the trely honest man is the one who would be hon- est at all tittles when So could he dishonest and his dishonesty never be found out." Bet is each a con- tiogency possible ? Who can ever be sure that his dishonesty is safely hidden ? The eyes of rivals, of subordinates, of emplyees, are keen and ece more than we know. They are apt to imit.ate. too, both the good and the bad, so that one wrougdoer may cause deterioration through whole circles of his social inferiors. In the home, as in bus- iness, the example of dishonesty has "alwien:the tendency to recoil on the ' wrongnar. The merchant who con- nives ateltis clerk's cheating of the •cusioniers in his interests must not be sorprieed if the clerks cheat biro in their own het:creels If a farmer knowingly sends false weights to market, and when he is peeking a barrel of apples places the good apples upon the top of the barrel and a lower grade of fruit beneath, that farmer is teaching his farm hands to be deceitful in their rela- tions to him when they are gather - Ing the fruit. ITe is teaching his men to he as he has lied and be dis- honest as he was dishonest. 3f the bank officials criminally misplace the institution's trust funds, tbere is likely to come a time when one of those bank employees_ will default, and .in the emptied safe of that ba.rik the sins of that financial in- iLution. will, like the provetbial thickeas. come home to roost. - A step further ! If a 'housewife will bid her waiting maid anewer the front door bell and tell the woulS be caller that she is out. when she is in, that mistress is teaching her servant to be a liar in all things as well a,s in part. If a Wile is false in her dealings with her grocer and butcher and washer- woman. and false in her financial dealings with her servants, she need not be surprised if the laundress steals the stray handkerchiefs and collard and the cook sinfully wastes tbe butter and filches the cu,pboard, , 'el perhaps goes so far as to sell j potatoes and the eggs. If a 'tsewile, to protect herself, is mi - t to her servants, and turns t n off at a moment's notice when -she is leaving for the country vaca- tion, then she should not grumble If her servants treat her be the ettlee way. DISHONESTY XS CON'SAGIO1TS. . Dishonesty is contagious. DiShelle esty is animmoral germ which is Apt to spread through a Whole Sapily as the diphtheria germ often in the olden times used to destroy all: the children of dug household. The sinful plague of dishonesty and untruthfulneses and unfaithfulness Soes not always enter a home by the back door, It is sometimes conefortably installed in the boudoir long before it appears iii the seta' ventssaunters, and its first nap in a honed:0140s taken upon the par- 1or sofaSand net by resting in a kitehen ehair, The mistress, in Spite of herself, is an eaemplar to the doneeetic. Very often whoa the houstewlt . is finding fault with her servant. she is denouncing the mal- formed remelt) of her °Van evil life. " ho hoesekeeper is the domestic's model also in the matter, of syrna 1 Satins If •ate Wishes the eervantS to be sympathetfc with her troubles, then the housekeeper must So ern Pathetie with theirs. :Her know- ledge of her servants ought not to be limited to their service. She should take an interest itt tilde per- sonal converns attd give theoCeesn- eel and help in their difficulties. Trials are the connnon lot of our race.- The trials of the household swill be all the easier to bear if. tile housekeeper arid her servant meet these with clasped hands; each call- ing the ether her sister.

HONORABLE EMPLOYMENT. csit a disgrace, as many women seem to thinlait is, for a mother to be soca wheeling- her baby carriage along thestreet with her .own flesh and blood in that carriage? For my • own. part I thiek such a public sight of a wife and mother is a far naOre honorable one than for such a woman to be seen carrying around a pet dog or to be seen out dri ring with a French poodle by he,' side. You may smile if you will at the figure 1 have drawn, : but 1 say unto you, oh, wives' and mothers, that von ear never get your servants to appreciate the nobility of a domestic until you yourself fully _realize that the greatest work and the most hon- orable work you can have is that ' which is to be found within the four walls of a consecrated- hoMe. 'She housekeeper ts her serval, ts' model. Then sho must give tothem her love as well as her sympathy. 'Oh, no,- sweet housewife ansvrers, sl could. not love my servants, could sympathize with them itt their troubles, lint I could not Ione them. Why, if 1. loved them I should have to receive them into the 'holy of holies oi my heart. - I should -in one sense have to make them part or my own family. I cannot placemy ser- vants side by side with my child - Yes, my sister,you can love as well as syin path ize with your do- mestics. You cangive them our hart • as well as your hand. You can make them part of your household. You can look upon your domestic help in the same way that King .Sol - onion looked upon his. .1•1e. was ver- bally painting (he ideal . co n d ti on of his home when he wrote, "And had servants born' ill My- home." That moans, as 1- take it, . that the son- vants were part of _himself.. lf any troubles' should come' those servants would . cling to him and love him on account of the love with Which he loved them. You can learn to love servants just the same as your ser- vants can work for you from a high- er motive than that of getting Mon- ey. Tbey.can learn to love you. CORDS OF AFFECTION, Housewives, if you will only Ware to love your servants • and make their interests your interests, that love would be returned to you in a thousand blessings. We can prove this lay the silver cords of affection, which bound some of the southern planters to their black slaves. Did not those slaves returit thbir mas- ters' love by a ndble devotion'? There was many and many a Woman in the south who, after her husband had been shot in the civil war, would bave starved to death had not the strong limbed negroes who worked for her as "slaves of the law" con- tinued, on their ream free will, to Work for her as "slaves of love." There was many a wounded Confeder- ate soldier Who 'would have died had not his body servant, who easily c.ould have escaped into the north- ern lines, gladly and willingly and prayerfully nursed him back to health and strength, There is many a ser- vant working to -day as a hireling in some home who if she was loved by her mistress would retern a Wealth of allection and devotion such as she herself does not believe, herself cap- able of giving. The 'true interpreta- Unit of love meats simply this; If you love your servants; you will take them into Your lifo and make their ntereets your- interests, And by your loving (lain they will let you creep -into their hearts end Make Your interests -their interests. THE SERVANT OF ALL. Oh, mistresses!- Oh, housewives and housekeepers, in your dealings .with your - servants may you reveal • - .gentle • Christian life to yoUr• household. In your prayers, ia year consecration, in your family al - tats, in the purity of your life, may you always help your household ser - • to look beyond the grave and to look. up, Then, when, your dos niceties,- thidigb. your ebristiati ex- ample,. walk hand in bend with )esus Christ there will be no "servant question." Why? There shall be no unfaithful and slothful domestics. Housewives and 'housekeepers, heed well the importance PS consecrating your livee to Christ, not only for year own sake, but also for the sake ot your servants, - Remember that it Is far owed.' for you to commit a, sin against those, whom you suppose to belower than you than it is against those whom you SUppOSS Etre above you. It le easier for a parent to sin against e king. And remember to dc•fy a parent, It is easier for. a hing to do an open .wrong to a sal -f- leet' than for a subject to flagrantly lin against a king. And remember further, that God judges our actions just as Muth by how we' treat ' our cattlo. as our masters, our underlings as our dimloyers, our servants as our husbandsand wives..

And Ab ishai said, 1 will go down with thee After the parting* of David anc Jonathun In the last lesson David im due -tune- made hts headquarters n the eavv. Adullans and, having plac d Iuis 1'ather and cate a the king of Moah, he became captain of ubout 400 distressed and discontented men wbo gothesed unto him. His owa brethren were also among them (chapter xxii., 1-4). Saul in his angee having, by the hand of Deets, stela - eighty -fire -priests, Abiathar escaped amt. told David, tinct to 'him. David said these 111cent-it:ab1e words: "Abide thou with me, feat not; for he- that seeketh my life seeketh thy life, bid with me thou sluelt be in safeguard" (xxii., 28). Probehly many years Of David's .nersecntions are coveredby the words, "And Saul sought him every day, but Cod delivered hint not into his heed" 11). But in the twenty-fourth chapter, as well as in out lesson, Saul is seen in David's Power to do with as he will, and in each caee Daeid raiment good for evil.

This same Abishai wanted to take Shimei's he -ad off when lie dosed Raved and threw stones at him. He it was -also who delivered David from the giant ishbibenob. and slew him. (II.

David said furthermore; As the Lord liveth the Lord shall smite him or his day shall come to die .or he shall descend into battle and per- ish. The. Lord forbid that I should stretch forth mite hand against , the Lord's anointed. Such confidence had David in his God that he could leave every one and everything. in ihitt hand without anxiety, sure that the couesel of the Lord wouldstandand the counsel of His enendes be brought to naught. Therefore he could say, . not as a mere theory, but. from his own ex- perience:. "Fret not thyself because of the evildoers, for they shall soon be cut dowtt like the grass and with- er as the green herb. Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him" (Ps. xxxvii., 1, 2, 7). 12.

To make the extract extra strong, drain the alcohol from the rind after three weeks, and pour it over fresh- ly grated peel, rejecting the first rind and use like any 'lemon extract: Instead of clear alcohol, one can use eta:m.1 parts of alcohol and simple syrup, using_in the recipe the same as the alcohol. If one doesn't care to make the ex- tract in this way, it is still possible to make a substitute for the store article, which will give good results at little expense. Purchase of a drug- gist five cents worth of oil of lemon, and use it by the single drop, in recipes where a teaspoonful of lemon extract is called for, or dilute the oil by adding simple syrup until it seems as weak as ordinary lemon ex- tract.
