HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Wingham Advance, 1910-09-01, Page 2water-- The wearing ot mourning in England consequent on the death of King Ed- ward VIL lute exerted a widespread in- flnence in favor of black and black and white that will be felt lor several months. Strangers visiting Lonaon feel edalged to wear black because other- wise they were disagreeably conspicu- ous. One American woman who, not provided with a black gown, went to the play attired in light blue soon be- came so painfully •conscious that she was the only women in the entire house wearing a, color that she left before the play was over. At has been said that in consequence of the enforeed wearing of blaek an outburst of most vivid col- ors will follow, but that remains to be proved, and the dressmakers are busy turning out the smartest of all black and black a,nd white gowns that are so faseinatingly becoming they are certain to be copied. Never were there so many black satin gown e worn, the coat and. skirt cos - Wines especially, and it is remarkable how many different kinds of black sat- in there are. Some have a bright finish, ethers a dull; then some of the gowns are braided. or embredderede others, and these the majority, are ab- solutely plain...4,11 are made with short skirts, and the eoats are either short or medium length, the long coat of last autumn and winter having pased into and coat, and with dose fitting sleeves of a length that reaches midway be- tween elbow and. wrist, these coats are oh:nylon. Extremely seant, both skirt very smart if well made and of good material, the fashion not being adopted to the limited income, for to be eatis- factory they must be of a good quality of satin and also be well cut. As has been already stated, there is a strong effort being made to bring in the old- fashioned soft, lustreless silks in place of the black setin, but the former Ts not nearly so becoming a material and it is doubtful if the attempt will suc- ceed. Black Satin Coat Suits, The three-piece costume in black sat- in is certainly useful and smart and will be copied for the winter In satin finished black cloth -the late autumn models, If not too eccentric, being talc - en as models, The three piece suit is more apt to be what it is called, three piece, than what is was last season, when the skirt and. waist in one were selected. Now waist- and skirt are al- most invariably chosen, for it has been proved that for a gown to be worn with a coat there is the greatest sdvantage in being able to wear differ- ent waists. Moat fascinating are the waists of Moo and fancy net veiled in lack voile de sole, with the lower part of the waist of. satin in soft folds, on the plan of a high draped bodice. Bands of the satin, which can be in oolor if so desired under the black voile, go over the shoulders and finish the sleeves. There is a narrow round ot pointed yoke and collar of lace made as transparent as possible, and this is not veiled witli the black. So clveerly are the folds of material draped on the waist that the effect is the same as though waist and skirt were all in one, end the gown can be 'men without the coat. Care must be taken that the folds are not too thick, for that is most unbecoming to the figure, One of the newest models for a coat of satin or cloth is of hip length, with straight but half -fitting back and, front. This has a band of braiding and em- broidery around the bottom of the coat and down either side in front. The fonts are caught together with fancy ornaments. It is quite new and smart, but gives a line that is not always be- coming, and consequently is often modi- fied by having the trimming only down the front. If, however, it is possible,. the embroidery band arounci the jacket is invariably chosen as the smartest. There is not so marked a change hi the coats as the skirts of the street cos- tume & The straight effect back and front is still fashionable, and it is only that there is more shaping, in a curving at the side seams -the fashionable fig- ure always being extremely slender'but at the same time more rounded thah angular. How to Look Slender. pale- the leading dressmakers now ad- vocate an extremely low cut and short corset, relying entirely upon the cut of her gowns and roate to give the required straight and slender eppearance de- manded. a little, which will not hurt the paper end will make a better cup.

It is more interesting and quite mar- vellous to note how this slender effect is obtained when the wearer of the gown Is by no means thin. All seaaus are straight in effect, for all lines aro per- pendicular, but as yet ite_requires the skill of a elever dressmakeee to carry out the idea. But in itself the fashion is not so involved, and with a good, per- fect fitting pattern, it will be quite p08 - Bible before winter sets in for every wo- man to know how her winter suit shall be made. Black velvet is to be extremely fash- ionable this winter, and in consequence black velveteen and corduroy will again be in favor, but for the present such materials can only be talked about, while cloth and. the lighter weights of serges and camel's hair are chosen in preparation for the first cool days of autumn, .At the moment voile, chiffon, foulard lace an,' a:1 the ligbt, cool mai. terials are far more popular. Foulard, while emphatically a summer fabric, will this season be worn late in the autumn, for the newest designs have a black satin ground with only a small pattern of white, and that quite far apart in the design, so that the effect is numb more of a satin than a foulard. One of the latest fashioes is tlae nee of em- broidery instead of lace on white mus- lin, the openwork light pattern and also the patterns that look like Venetian lace in design. This is always veiled with black voile or chiffon and is newer than lace and is also combined with lace, the yoke and collar, unveiled, be- ing of the lace, while all the other trim- ming is of embroidery, veikd with voile de sole and chiffon. , In order to gain the desired effect of scantiness in silk or light weight mater- ial the greatest care is taken in the con- struction of the skirt, There is a foun- dation or underskirt of the softest satin or silk, which is fitted as tight as pos- sible to the figure and reaches only a short distance below the knees; on this front being finished with a wide band of the satin. The gown is inconspicuous save for its marked simplicity and beau- ty of line. This is a new model that is most papular. -A. T. Ashmore. THE ORIENTAL TOUGH. It flourishes. Note the colors. See the embroideries. There are beaded stuffs. There are Eastern color schemes. Silks are printed in Persian designs. Braids and incrustations heighten the effect.. This oriental touch will be barely visible in day attire. And evening cloaks and dresses will show much more than mere Oriente,' touches. BONBON CUPS MADE FROM NAPKINS. Very attractive little cups for ices or bonbons may be made from paper nap- kins if one wishes to decorate a lunch- eon -table inexpensively or to make at- tractive the sweetmeat booth at a stun- mereanzaar. The making of these charm- ing little cups is enthely a matter of foldieg, no stitching or paeting being ne- cessary, and the work takes only a mo. went. There are now so ninny designs in paper napkins that one may make a selection pretty much according to ones own fancy, but for the paper cups it is better to hare a design that encircles the napkin or covers it nearly all over rather than one which is only in one or two corners. Flower bordered napkin.. are especially good for the cups. As paper napkins are somewhat hate gnlar, it is necessary at. first to get the mitre accurately by folding the heed - kerchief catercornered and then ea ter - cornered again. Then unfold it and the centre will be marked. The first fold thar you niake after get- ting the' centre,. in the manner described is to turn all the points of the hendker. thief in to the centre, leaving the deco- rated side out. Then bum the handker- chief and again turn all the orders in toward the centre. Without turning over the handkerchief turn the corners in to. ward the centre for the third time. Then turn over the henakerchief again and turn the corners up to the centre once more. The folding is now all done. To shape the cup place the folded handkerchief over the bottom of a tumbler which is pieced upside down on a table.

For the ideal verandah the decora- tors are now recommending Windsor theirs, armchairs and settles and French fibre rugs, whie hcome in brown and green in very charming colorings. The Windsor chairs are to be had in the original at very moderate prices considering their age and. in very good reproductions at even more reasonable rates. The French fibre rugs wheel hvae proved so very satisfactory for verandah use are made from grape vine fibre by the French peasants. They are very durable. There are also the Celtic rugs, which come from Scotland and are in a, variety of colors, most of which are decidedly vivid. The verandah tea table, which Is sup posed to harmonize most admirably with the Windsor chairs is the Jacobean round table, which, although very ex- pensive in the antique, is to be found in ereditable reproductions. Then for the lighting of this quaintly furnished vein andalt there ate wonderful lanterns of frosted glees and brass. These in the original are rare aud correspondingly hundred dolictrs apiece. There are, of expensive, some of theta costing several coin•se, ninny verieties of lanterns which even among the genuinely old are quite inexpensive. AS TO BLOUSES.

This is the heir -The husbandmen knew that the last messenger was' the householder's son, and the Jewish leaders had ample op- portunity to know that Jesuit was the Son of God, and their determination to put him to death was reached after they had seen unmistakable exhibitions of His Divine power in the raising of Lazarus.

"It le one of the Am's wonderful ways ef working, and will come to pass PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS, The direct application. The parable ot the vineyard was primarily intended to strike home to the self-righteous chief priests and Pharisees who made the ap- plication very readily. 'They perceived that he spake of them" (v. 40.) The Israelitislk nation haa had great priva- leges bestowed upon them and great trusts committed to them. "If ye will obey my voice .... ye shall be a, pon- der treasure unto me above all people" (Exod. ID: 5.) God awl chosen them, had. sent prophets to them, had made a direct revelation .of his will, and had tenderly nurtured them. His efforts in their behalf had many times been spurn. ed. Hes warnings had been disregarded and his mercies trampled under foot. Most aptly could he ask respecting hie chosen people, "What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it'?" (Isa. 5: 4.) The course of the Jewish people and God's dealings with them form a true picture of the life of many individuals with reference to their relation to God. Opportunities given. "Let It ont to husbandmen" (v. 33.) Great interests aro committed to us. The houseleolder awned over to the husbandmen a vine- yard well prepared and. capable ot yielding rich returns to the one web would properly attend to it, and at ihe same time there would be positive ad- vantage to the owner. In.like manner God has endowed us with powers 01 body and. mind and a spiritual nature, so that eve are capable of spiritual COM - fort and joy and the possession of true satisfaction, and. at tho same time we may render to the Master the fruits of it holy heart and life. We do not have Lo acquire a moral sense; we have that. We do not need to -obtain and develop a conscience; we have that. There is ev- erything bestowed upon us that is nee cessary in order that we may become true and successful husbandmen over the vineyard entrusted to us. We have but to accept the trust through repent- ance, submission and faith and we shall be well -pleasing to the divine House- holder, Opportunities rejected. The day of reckoning isnotfar away, '.1.'he house- holder did not relinquish his right in the vineyarcl when he 'lot it nut to .hus- bandmen." It was still his and Ile ex- pected returns from it. God has not re- linquished his right in us even though he has given us the power of choice and will. He sends to us asking the fruits of the holy life of which we are capable, as he sent servants to the husbandmer in the parable demanding friut. et - most countless eases thedemand for the fruit of which we through grace are cap- able is ignored and the messengers are treated with contempt. As the jaws ill- treated the prophets sent to them, fib mu reject the calls of merey, for it re mercy on God's. part that calls upon them to bring forth the fruits of holi- ness. We are indignant at the treatment accorded by the husbandmen to the sea. vents and the son of the householder, but now much better are We doing than they? The doom of those rejecting Christ. "He will miserably destroy those wicket' men" (v. 41.) If we disregard God's claims upon us, and go about asserting our independence of him, refusing to ten- der to him the loving service of ft holy heart, which he demands of us, there is nothing before us but destruetioa and banishment from his presence forever. We may be offended in Christ, and later mover from it, but if we continue Vo reject the only hope of our salvation, the stone will fall iipon us, and shut grind us to powder. The 'vision of lodt, opportunities, of it forteited inheritance thoula urge us to render quiekly to the Master all that is due. SAME AS MEN.

Retail trade is of fair volume for this time of the year, but a big increase is looked for during the'Eucharistic Con- gress which next month is expected to attract fifty thousand visitors to this city. So far tais year elle tourist busi- ness has been excellent. Wholesale trade is of moderate proportion, but indica- tions for the future scent quite satisfac- tory. Toronto reports to Bradstreet's say general business has it decidedly healthy tone. The demand 'for general lines of wholesale goods is good for this season of the year. A return of hot weather has revived interest in sorting lines and or- ders for fall goods have so far been sat- isfactory.

Moue' r Plunges in to Save Baby • From Drowning, Sedan, Kan., Aug. 29, -Mrs, John Burch, wife of it young farmer living near here, saved her child from drowning in a cistern by plunging into the water after it and,holding it in her arms above the water until help came eight houre latee. 'rue inlay, Iess than two years oid, was playing about the cistern when the trap- door on the platform gave way wider her weight, and she fell into the water, several feet below. The mother saw the child disappear under the water and leaped int() the cistern after it. The water Was nearly five feet deep and Mrs. Burch had hard work to keep the child above the water. The hours went by and seemed like ages to the mother standing there in water that reached to her shoulders. She screamed for help time after time, but no one was near. Then came dark- ness and Mrs. Burch believed she would have to spend the whole night there. • When her husband came in about 8 o'clock from his fields he searched the house, the barn, then the orchards for his wife and baby. Finally he thought of the cistern, and turning his steps toward it heard his wife calling, and quickly rescued them The wife col- lapsed completely from the strain after being carried into the house.

'171 :P 7 7 eefetaeteeceetajace elraceeefteeert_J The wearing ot mourning in England consequent on the death of King Ed- ward VIL lute exerted a widespread in- flnence in favor of black and black and white that will be felt lor several months. Strangers visiting Lonaon feel edalged to wear black because other- wise they were disagreeably conspicu- ous. One American woman who, not provided with a black gown, went to the play attired in light blue soon be- came so painfully •conscious that she was the only women in the entire house wearing a, color that she left before the play was over. At has been said that in consequence of the enforeed wearing of blaek an outburst of most vivid col- ors will follow, but that remains to be proved, and the dressmakers are busy turning out the smartest of all black and black a,nd white gowns that are so faseinatingly becoming they are certain to be copied. Never were there so many black satin gown e worn, the coat and. skirt cos - Wines especially, and it is remarkable how many different kinds of black sat- in there are. Some have a bright finish, ethers a dull; then some of the gowns are braided. or embredderede others, and these the majority, are ab- solutely plain...4,11 are made with short skirts, and the eoats are either short or medium length, the long coat of last autumn and winter having pased into and coat, and with dose fitting sleeves of a length that reaches midway be- tween elbow and. wrist, these coats are oh:nylon. Extremely seant, both skirt very smart if well made and of good material, the fashion not being adopted to the limited income, for to be eatis- factory they must be of a good quality of satin and also be well cut. As has been already stated, there is a strong effort being made to bring in the old- fashioned soft, lustreless silks in place of the black setin, but the former Ts not nearly so becoming a material and it is doubtful if the attempt will suc- ceed. Black Satin Coat Suits, The three-piece costume in black sat- in is certainly useful and smart and will be copied for the winter In satin finished black cloth -the late autumn models, If not too eccentric, being talc - en as models, The three piece suit is more apt to be what it is called, three piece, than what is was last season, when the skirt and. waist in one were selected. Now waist- and skirt are al- most invariably chosen, for it has been proved that for a gown to be worn with a coat there is the greatest sdvantage in being able to wear differ- ent waists. Moat fascinating are the waists of Moo and fancy net veiled in lack voile de sole, with the lower part of the waist of. satin in soft folds, on the plan of a high draped bodice. Bands of the satin, which can be in oolor if so desired under the black voile, go over the shoulders and finish the sleeves. There is a narrow round ot pointed yoke and collar of lace made as transparent as possible, and this is not veiled witli the black. So clveerly are the folds of material draped on the waist that the effect is the same as though waist and skirt were all in one, end the gown can be 'men without the coat. Care must be taken that the folds are not too thick, for that is most unbecoming to the figure, One of the newest models for a coat of satin or cloth is of hip length, with straight but half -fitting back and, front. This has a band of braiding and em- broidery around the bottom of the coat and down either side in front. The fonts are caught together with fancy ornaments. It is quite new and smart, but gives a line that is not always be- coming, and consequently is often modi- fied by having the trimming only down the front. If, however, it is possible,. the embroidery band arounci the jacket is invariably chosen as the smartest. There is not so marked a change hi the coats as the skirts of the street cos- tume & The straight effect back and front is still fashionable, and it is only that there is more shaping, in a curving at the side seams -the fashionable fig- ure always being extremely slender'but at the same time more rounded thah angular.

It is more interesting and quite mar- vellous to note how this slender effect is obtained when the wearer of the gown Is by no means thin. All seaaus are straight in effect, for all lines aro per- pendicular, but as yet ite_requires the skill of a elever dressmakeee to carry out the idea. But in itself the fashion is not so involved, and with a good, per- fect fitting pattern, it will be quite p08 - Bible before winter sets in for every wo- man to know how her winter suit shall be made. Black velvet is to be extremely fash- ionable this winter, and in consequence black velveteen and corduroy will again be in favor, but for the present such materials can only be talked about, while cloth and. the lighter weights of serges and camel's hair are chosen in preparation for the first cool days of autumn, .At the moment voile, chiffon, foulard lace an,' a:1 the ligbt, cool mai. terials are far more popular. Foulard, while emphatically a summer fabric, will this season be worn late in the autumn, for the newest designs have a black satin ground with only a small pattern of white, and that quite far apart in the design, so that the effect is numb more of a satin than a foulard. One of the latest fashioes is tlae nee of em- broidery instead of lace on white mus- lin, the openwork light pattern and also the patterns that look like Venetian lace in design. This is always veiled with black voile or chiffon and is newer than lace and is also combined with lace, the yoke and collar, unveiled, be- ing of the lace, while all the other trim- ming is of embroidery, veikd with voile de sole and chiffon. , In order to gain the desired effect of scantiness in silk or light weight mater- ial the greatest care is taken in the con- struction of the skirt, There is a foun- dation or underskirt of the softest satin or silk, which is fitted as tight as pos- sible to the figure and reaches only a short distance below the knees; on this front being finished with a wide band of the satin. The gown is inconspicuous save for its marked simplicity and beau- ty of line. This is a new model that is most papular. -A. T. Ashmore. THE ORIENTAL TOUGH. It flourishes. Note the colors. See the embroideries. There are beaded stuffs. There are Eastern color schemes. Silks are printed in Persian designs. Braids and incrustations heighten the effect.. This oriental touch will be barely visible in day attire. And evening cloaks and dresses will show much more than mere Oriente,' touches. BONBON CUPS MADE FROM NAPKINS. Very attractive little cups for ices or bonbons may be made from paper nap- kins if one wishes to decorate a lunch- eon -table inexpensively or to make at- tractive the sweetmeat booth at a stun- mereanzaar. The making of these charm- ing little cups is enthely a matter of foldieg, no stitching or paeting being ne- cessary, and the work takes only a mo. went. There are now so ninny designs in paper napkins that one may make a selection pretty much according to ones own fancy, but for the paper cups it is better to hare a design that encircles the napkin or covers it nearly all over rather than one which is only in one or two corners. Flower bordered napkin.. are especially good for the cups. As paper napkins are somewhat hate gnlar, it is necessary at. first to get the mitre accurately by folding the heed - kerchief catercornered and then ea ter - cornered again. Then unfold it and the centre will be marked. The first fold thar you niake after get- ting the' centre,. in the manner described is to turn all the points of the hendker. thief in to the centre, leaving the deco- rated side out. Then bum the handker- chief and again turn all the orders in toward the centre. Without turning over the handkerchief turn the corners in to. ward the centre for the third time. Then turn over the henakerchief again and turn the corners up to the centre once more. The folding is now all done. To shape the cup place the folded handkerchief over the bottom of a tumbler which is pieced upside down on a table.

For the ideal verandah the decora- tors are now recommending Windsor theirs, armchairs and settles and French fibre rugs, whie hcome in brown and green in very charming colorings. The Windsor chairs are to be had in the original at very moderate prices considering their age and. in very good reproductions at even more reasonable rates. The French fibre rugs wheel hvae proved so very satisfactory for verandah use are made from grape vine fibre by the French peasants. They are very durable. There are also the Celtic rugs, which come from Scotland and are in a, variety of colors, most of which are decidedly vivid. The verandah tea table, which Is sup posed to harmonize most admirably with the Windsor chairs is the Jacobean round table, which, although very ex- pensive in the antique, is to be found in ereditable reproductions. Then for the lighting of this quaintly furnished vein andalt there ate wonderful lanterns of frosted glees and brass. These in the original are rare aud correspondingly hundred dolictrs apiece. There are, of expensive, some of theta costing several coin•se, ninny verieties of lanterns which even among the genuinely old are quite inexpensive. AS TO BLOUSES.

In what part of the lessou is the Jews' hatred toward Jesus shown? To whom is the kingdom of heaven offered? What did the multitudes think of Jesus? had just been spoken. A certain houee. holder -The heels of this parable was most fax:Wier to the people addressed. Niestine was a land of vines and all the details of this industry were well known to Christ's hearers. The house- holder was tile owner of the vineyard end represented the Father. Planted a vineyard-Glocl has establiohed it religi- ous system provieing laws, privilegee and blessings in col -motion with it, As the vineyard was expected to yield returns, o the spiritual system that God had ineuginated was expected to fulfil his designs and the fruitful in righteousness. Set a hedge about it (It. V,) -To separ- ate It from the property of others and keep out intruders. a'he Jews were a separate and peculiar people, God's kingdom is separated from the woeldly spirit Digged a winepress -The place for pressing out the wine was dug out of the ground and plastered over'or hol- lowed out, of the top of a rook, The grapes were placed in this winepress and mon with bare feet trod tmon them, pressing out. the juice, which ran into a lower part of the excavation and was drawn off into a prepared reservoir, or cistern, The winepress stands for all the provisions that God made for Israel that they might accomplish the work which he attended. A tower -A place for the watchman who guarded the vineyard. Itusbundmen-These represented, the leaders of the Jewish nation during the SUOCCSSiY0 ages. To us God commits cer- tain truets and intends that we shall care for them sacredly, rendering to nim proper returns for the same. Into a far country -The responsibility of carrying out their appointed mission was left with them. Goa had given the Jews ex- alted privileges and he, left them to avail themselves of them'rendering to 111111 obedience, faith, devotion and love. 11. Te fruits withheld (vs. 34-39,) 34. The time of the fruit -As in the vine- yard fruit was confidently expected, so of Israel and God's people generally the fruits of faith and righteousness are reasonably looked for. Sent his sea vants-The prophets and teachers whom God raised up to instruct and direct Is- rael. Receive the fruits -The husband - men were to give over to the household- er, either a. fixed sum yearly for the use of the vineyard. or a certain share of the crop. In this case it appears that a por- tion of the fruits belonged to the owner. "Every special care to love and serve God, every service at the church, every providence of God, every voice of the Holy Spirit, every Benson of revival, Ills servant whom God sends to us for the fruits that are due him." -P. 35. Beat one, and killed another, etc. -It is a no- ticeable fact that many of the prophete were ill-treated by the Jews. Among them may be named Moses, Elijab, shit, Isaiah, Jeremiah and Zechariah. 30. Other servants more than the firsta-lm this instanee there was more dignity and authority represented. Here is proof of the marvellous patience and forbearance of God. John the Baptist may be include ed in this number. Likewise--Stil Ithe claim of the householder were disre- garded. The spirit of rebellion tound its nutnifestation in the rejection. of the claims of the householder. 37. Last of all He sent unto them His Son -This was the last and crown- ing effort of divine mercy; after which, on the one side, all the resources even of heavenly love are exhausted, on the other the measure of sins is perfeetly filled up. -Trench. The Jewish leaders could not fail to understand that Jesus was laying claim to the Messiahship, and • that his remarks applied forcefully to them. Will reverence my son -Al- though God. knew the course that the Jews would pursue with reference to His Son, yet He had it right to expect that they would honor Him. "If it hu - 'man householder would. have such an expectation, much more God 1ut a ma- son and a right to expect reverence for His Son."-Whedon. 38. This is the heir -The husbandmen knew that the last messenger was' the householder's son, and the Jewish leaders had ample op- portunity to know that Jesuit was the Son of God, and their determination to put him to death was reached after they had seen unmistakable exhibitions of His Divine power in the raising of Lazarus. Seize on Ilis inheritance- How astonishingly poiated is this figure! The priests and scribes kitma Jesus, that they might hold back from Rim the na- tion, which they regarded as their own. proPertg.-Ill. Notes. They failed to realize that they must reckon with the Father. 39. Coat Him out..Slew him - Jesus passes from history to prophecy. He foretells what the Jews Will do in a few clays. They expected great advan- tage from His death, but only found themselves later involved in still deeper trouble. III. 'The rejectors punished (vs. 40, 41). 40. When the lord..coneeth- The threefold rejection and iosult cannot pass unnoticed. The reckoning tinie must eome'even though there might be a long delay. God will take account of the rejection of His Son by the jews. What will Re do -The heueeholder had. dealt patiently and mercifully with the hes- banamet, but the end had been reached. God had dealt with the Jewish natiOn with great forbearance, but the ornate, erticifixion of His Son at their hands must bring dire punishnient to them. 41, They say -The chief priests and elder, who did not yet fully compre- hend the applicatioil of the parable. no will miserably destroy those miserable mete (It. Y) --..Their crimes called for the infliction of the severest penalty. The unjust Jewish leeders could see the - injustice of no hinebandmen in the par- able. Other husbandraene-Since the jews had rejected Jesus the grace that He brought espeeially to them would be offered to the Gentile waled. IV. The stone rejected and honored (vs. 42-40). 42. the ecriptures-The refetence is to Psa. 118:22,23.

"It le one of the Am's wonderful ways ef working, and will come to pass PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS, The direct application. The parable ot the vineyard was primarily intended to strike home to the self-righteous chief priests and Pharisees who made the ap- plication very readily. 'They perceived that he spake of them" (v. 40.) The Israelitislk nation haa had great priva- leges bestowed upon them and great trusts committed to them. "If ye will obey my voice .... ye shall be a, pon- der treasure unto me above all people" (Exod. ID: 5.) God awl chosen them, had. sent prophets to them, had made a direct revelation .of his will, and had tenderly nurtured them. His efforts in their behalf had many times been spurn. ed. Hes warnings had been disregarded and his mercies trampled under foot. Most aptly could he ask respecting hie chosen people, "What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it'?" (Isa. 5: 4.) The course of the Jewish people and God's dealings with them form a true picture of the life of many individuals with reference to their relation to God. Opportunities given. "Let It ont to husbandmen" (v. 33.) Great interests aro committed to us. The houseleolder awned over to the husbandmen a vine- yard well prepared and. capable ot yielding rich returns to the one web would properly attend to it, and at ihe same time there would be positive ad- vantage to the owner. In.like manner God has endowed us with powers 01 body and. mind and a spiritual nature, so that eve are capable of spiritual COM - fort and joy and the possession of true satisfaction, and. at tho same time we may render to the Master the fruits of it holy heart and life. We do not have Lo acquire a moral sense; we have that. We do not need to -obtain and develop a conscience; we have that. There is ev- erything bestowed upon us that is nee cessary in order that we may become true and successful husbandmen over the vineyard entrusted to us. We have but to accept the trust through repent- ance, submission and faith and we shall be well -pleasing to the divine House- holder, Opportunities rejected. The day of reckoning isnotfar away, '.1.'he house- holder did not relinquish his right in the vineyarcl when he 'lot it nut to .hus- bandmen." It was still his and Ile ex- pected returns from it. God has not re- linquished his right in us even though he has given us the power of choice and will. He sends to us asking the fruits of the holy life of which we are capable, as he sent servants to the husbandmer in the parable demanding friut. et - most countless eases thedemand for the fruit of which we through grace are cap- able is ignored and the messengers are treated with contempt. As the jaws ill- treated the prophets sent to them, fib mu reject the calls of merey, for it re mercy on God's. part that calls upon them to bring forth the fruits of holi- ness. We are indignant at the treatment accorded by the husbandmen to the sea. vents and the son of the householder, but now much better are We doing than they? The doom of those rejecting Christ. "He will miserably destroy those wicket' men" (v. 41.) If we disregard God's claims upon us, and go about asserting our independence of him, refusing to ten- der to him the loving service of ft holy heart, which he demands of us, there is nothing before us but destruetioa and banishment from his presence forever. We may be offended in Christ, and later mover from it, but if we continue Vo reject the only hope of our salvation, the stone will fall iipon us, and shut grind us to powder. The 'vision of lodt, opportunities, of it forteited inheritance thoula urge us to render quiekly to the Master all that is due. SAME AS MEN.
