That the Pauline idea? No, my friend, you are wrong. IVhen paul said, "Let your moderation be known unto all men," he was not, as Bishop VDliers once expressed it, "alluding to the gratification of our desires generally, but especially tem - potence or self restraint in our re- lation to others, in our abstinence from. anger and harshness and venge- ance." He is saying, as the revised version translates the sentence, "Let your 'forbearance or gentleness be known unto all men." To -day in- stead of preaching upon what you should eat and drink and wherewith you be clothed and how inuch exer- cise you should take I shall preach upon how you should smile and talk and shake hands and forgive and aiele. This sermOnic theme is not how.,we should live, but how we should be willing to • let others live. Be patient, in the first place, even with the irritating idiosyncrasies and the offensive mannerisms that are found. in• almost every one with •whoin. we come in contact. Bo. , pa- tient with their peculiarities, eipeci- -ally if they are nonessentials in ref- erence to the honesty and noble char- acteristics of a man. Be •patient .especially because wrong types of niarked'individuality, if harnessed in the right war, Will often mean great success for us and for those whom it is our privilege to influence. BIC LENIENT WITH THE WEAK. • The startling characteristics, good or bad, which can be found in the ten talent men on a big scale can also be found in the, one talent men On a small scale. In the ordinary walks of life everywhere are people cursed or marred With various im- perfections. They are good people in one sense, but bad in another. ' We define them as "peculiar" people. We call them "peculiar". because through (inch runs •ci mental or physical weak- ness, as a mineral vein runs through the rocks �f a mighty mountain, We say:' "I like So-and-so, but he has one fearfully .irritating characteris- tic. He will muss up a room every time he enters it." Or you say: "I like Mrs. So-and-so, but every time she calls she makes some nettlesome remark that stings like a brier busio When she comes to visit me X .am always glad to weleome her. When she leaves I am always gladder to see her go. She is never with me ten minutes without making 1110, atm - happy.

Yes, I feel and know that Mrs. So-and-so • is a good woman and that she loves me, but she has the tantalizing fac- ulty of always uninteationally saying something mean." , Ah, yes. All Of us have had, such bitter experiences as those from the irritating pemilistrities of our Mende. So ,Paul comes to us to -day in the • words of .my text. Ie says: "My brothefa yi511 Mae*, be leraent and gentle in your dealings with ;the , faults and failings (if others.

Ire was a fine young fellow. Everybody who came in touch with him liked him. Bright? There was no brighter boy in your store. He was not ouly bright, but he was the son of a good Christian father. He knew better, but he would drink. He came iuto your office drunk about: ono year ago. • You forgave him twice. Wien he did it the third time you said, "Out you go !" And out of the store last week he went. Or perhaps he was that employee of yours who was arrested because he stole from your safe and then, . to cover it up, manipulated the ledger. His defalcations went on for months. Or perhaps he was that Peter whom you .eaaght lying to you. The first time you said nothing. ' The second time you proved to him that he pre- varicated. The third. time you dis- charged him on the spot. And yet In spite of those lies, of those defal- cations, of those drunkennesses, you could not help liking this Peter of the three 'denials. You loved him for his own sake. You liked hiln on account of his father and mother. Then, my brother, if you like that if yoo think Imo has even yet the making of a good man 10 him, if he can overcome that one fault, why not take him back again ? Why not give him another chance?

Remembei. that Christ fors the same we have neigher acted wise: gave Peter again aud again until at ly nor obeyed °of -instructions. Some Oast Peter rose above his weaknesses and gave- his life felly and freely back to Christ. Will you do as much for that young man in your employ as Christ clicl for his impul- sive and denying disciple ? EVIL OF HASTY JUDGMENT: Be patient, in the next pla.ce, with those sinners who 1111,V0 110 sympathy with their fellow aien's silts. It is very easy for us to pass judgment upon others. It is very hard, how- ever, for us to be wiling to let others criticise their neighbors when they themselves are flagrantly guilty of the sante sins. Yet everywhere we find that those pharisaical people who themselves are most open to criticism are the most critical of others. Sit any 'day you will in a crowded city street car and lInd an illustra- tion of what I mean. When the poor old colored washerwomantries to enter with her bundles and drpps • some packages who laughs—the 'edu- cated gentleman or the refined lady, the man whose cerebral development indicates the dome of his skull covers a. well developed brain, or are the laughers and the scoffers found among those whose Intellect in • all probability is not even a' s great as that of the old black woman, who never had a. day's schooling in all her life? Who is baldest upon the young- girl or boy who has gone as- tray? The old Christian, man and woman who from their very earliest days have prayerfully followed Christ ? Oh„ no f The persons Who. will be most apt to pass the hatclest criticism. against the fallen are the Men and woman who dare not have the search light of ,investigation turned upon their own Iivee. So some of us can well make the asser- tion : "We 'despise sin, but we de- spise worse the sinner ‘vho is criti- cising sin when be himself 18 guilty Of the name or even worse sins.', Thus, my friends, the whole teach- ing .of this text is this Drop . your battle ax and as a Chaistian farmer go to 'gospel seed planting. Drop your war clubs and go to driving an ambulance. Do not boast of bow many enemies you have killed, but speak rather of how many friends you have been able to winthrough gospel love. This text has in • it the language of pardon, not thehiSs of hate. It is a flower garden whose .most fragrant blossoms grow beet upon the grave hillocks under which are Inia'ied the hideous corpses of bitter strife. It is a lighthouse to warn voyagers .off the dangerous rocks and to guide them hit° the harbor of safety and not the search .light of an invader, 'ready to single out for destruction a hiding foe. Oh, thy brother and sister, will you not try to practice Pead'S moderation? Will you not let your forbearance and gentleness and Christian forgive- ness be known unto all men '?' THE S. S.

It seems quito fitting that we should consider David's joy because of forgiveness after having consIder- ed his sorrow because of sin. But neither the one nor the other Will do us any good anless the experi- ence is truly our own.

To avoid the snares into which the devil would lead us we must be meek enough to be taught and guided and have our eyes ever toward the Lord (Ps. xxv. 9, 15). If we aro teachable and desire only the will of God we may rest assured that He will fulfillsto us •the promise of verse 8 and comfort us with the assurance of Isa. ;sloth 17.

It would seem that any person might puultice a fieger if only sure what kind of a poultice to use. Observation shows that very few housekeepers know "1ust how. to put on a poultice so it will stay in place. A piece of coarse cheese- cloth, a package of absorbent cot- ton and a roll of inch -wide sur- geons' bandage should always be at hand. No matter what the dressing fey the linger is to bp, the method of keeping it in place is always tha same, unless the injary is serious with sto'ne or ir01.1 hammers. on anvils and the •band is not to be used. of gneiss or granite.
