THE 'YINfuA t TIMES,.
About Asbestos,
Asbestos is a physical paradox, yet
one of nature's most marvellous prod-
uctions. It has> been called a miner-al-
ogical vegetable; it is both fibrous and
crystalline! elastie, yet brittle; a float-
ing stone which can be readily earded,
spun and woven into tissue. In Germ-
any itis known as steinflachs (stone
flax) and the miners of Quebec give it
quite an expressive name--pierre cotton
(cotton stone). The asbestos mines in
Quebec are the most famous in the
world yielding 85 per cent of the entire
output, Italy being the onlycempetiting
county and there the industy is declin
ing. Although Charlemange is said to
have had a tablecloth of asbestos (which
he cleaned by throwing it into the fire),
it was practically unknown of in 1850.
The Italian mineral was then experim-
ented with, and some years later put on
the market. Asbestos is flexible, non-
combustible, and a non-conductor of
heat and electricity, and on these pro-
perties its increasing use depends. It
is spun into yarn from which cloth is
woven for drop curtains in theatres,
clothing for fireman, acid wo.kers, etc.
It is made into lamp wicks and gloves
for stokers and ropes for fire -escapes.
It is felted into mill -board, to be used
as an insulator in dynamos, and as a fire-
proof lining for floors. It is used to in-
sulate electric wires and as a covering
to prevent loss of heat from steam pipes.
Mixed with rubber, it is used to pack
joints. -Farmer's Advocate.
THE CONTROL OF SELF.
The control of self is perhaps the
most difficult problem we have to meet.
To be master of self means the control
of muscles, thoughts and actions. The
power of being still and resting,
s Self-mastery does not mean activity,
so much as it means abstinence. Here
I mean abstinence literally -to abstain
from hurry, lassitude, trivialities, and
temper.
In doing anything athletic that counts
we should relax and rest before calling
upon the muscles for the final effort.
That is self-control.
In the moral sense, we should control
any desire for revenge, love our oppo-
nents, thank our failures and hardships
accept them as lessons, start again and
again until success is gained.
Women use up far too much vitality
in doing Iittle things. I have seen
women who declared that they were
relaxing and resting when they were
tapping their feet, clenching their
hands, tightly folding their arms until
the circulation stopped and numbed
one of them.
Any movement of the toes or fingers
while resting shows mental nervousness
and worry.
Now to master the thoughts one must
stop thinking of anything that is anx-
ious or unpleasant. That can be done,
although some will say that it cannot,
To be perfectly still for a few moments
is trying to some people, but it is neces-
sary. No one rests perfectly unless
one stops all action in limb and thought.
Relaxation can be accomplished in
any sort of work, by doing it easily
and systematically. Women should
study relaxation and self-control to
keep young and beautiful. Over -anx-
iety causes flushed faces, pale lips, and
indigestion. Nervous diseases are
caused by overworked brains or over-
strained resistance.
The woman who suffers and says
nothing -unless, of course, she has
much faith in God -will end a nervous
wreck. It is not natural for people to
keep secrets. The natural woman
must tell her troubles to someone -that

Mr. W. Moore, 182 Lisgar St., Toronto,
Ont., writes: -"After having been
troubled with indigestion; sour stomach,
and severe headaches for over tx year, 1
was induced to try Milburn's Lexa•Liver
Mills, One vial greatly benefitted nay

HELPFUL HINTS.
When paint sticks to glass it can be
removed with hot vinegar,
To brighten oil lamp burners boil
fifteen minutes in buttermilk.
When soaking mackerel or other salt
fish, see that the skin side is upper-
most.
Iced water in a pitcher will keep
much longer if a paper bag is placed
over the top.
Charcoal in pieces the size of a pea
or burnt cork once a week is good for
all poultry.
A good black ink, mixed with white
of egg, will restore the color of kid
shoes and gloves.
To polish zinc, rub briskly with a
cloth dipped in kerosene and rinse off
with boiling water.
A porcelain tub or sink may be thor-
oughly cleaned with a flannel dipped in
spirits of turpentine.
When boiling bacon or ham add a
little vinegar and leave the meat in until
the water is cold. The flavor will be
delicious.
Cut flowers will last well if a piece
of saltpeter be added to the water in
which they stand.
When buttering bread for sandwiches
always butter the end of the loaf be-
fore cutting off the slice.
To save grease when frying dough-
nuts put a teaspoonful of ginger into
the grease when hot.
Outside leaves of lettuce, if boiled,
chopped, drained and served on toast
like spinach, are delicious.
New iron pots should always be boil-
ed first with wood ashes and cold water
and then thoroughly scalded.
A discolored bean pot may be restor-
ed to its original whiteness by letting
buttermilk stand in it for a day or so.

CQOKING MEATS.
There are two methods of stewing
pleats; in one, the meat or poultry is
partly fried in butter, drippings, or other
fat, until perfectly seared on the out-
side, after which a sufficient quantity
of water is poured over it, brought to a
boil, and kept at simmering point until
perfectly tender, and the water mostly
evaporated. It is contended that the
water should be boiling hot when poured
en the hot, seared meat, as, if cold water
is used, the shock of the cold liquid
hardens the meat. This, however, is a
matter for the cook to decide.
The other method differs. The meat
is not fried, but packed loosely in a pan
or kettle, with sufficient cold water or
stock to cook, and kept simmering slow-
ly until perfectly done. This is the
method observed in making Irish stews;
for two pounds of neck or loin of mut-
ton, the time required is usually two
hours; but for tough meats, which are
the parts generally chosen for stews,
four or five hours are usually required.
The fire may be allowed to gradually
die out as the meat gets nearly done,
and it should be left in the water, eovs
ered, until the water is cold.
Tough meat, unfit for any other pro-
cess of cooking is made perfectly deliciw
nus through proper stewing, and the
meat requires very little attention, ex-
cepta few skimmings at the start, Dare.
ly water enough to eovor the pleat is
used at first, and only sufficient more is
added as it boils away, to prevent
seorehing.
The State inheritance tax will, says
the Springfield Republican, produce for
New York this year more than $20,000,-
000 in revenue, mainly because of the
deaths of four men, Joseph Pulitzer,
John Jacob Astor, Benjamin Guggen-
heim and Isador Straus, of whom the
last three lost their lives in the Titan -
ices foundering. Never before, since
this tax was levied, have so many
great fortunes been subject to it in one
year.

SUCCESS BY A FAILURE.
[Pall Mall Gazette)
When you are Nobody,
And live afar
In garret happily
Beneath some star,
How great you plan to be!
What things you'll dare,
When you are Somebody,
And have no care!
How sweet it seems,
How sweet ah, yes!
The golden dream
Men call Success!
When you are Somebody,
And all you meet
Bow down in flattery
Before your feet;
What of the friends you knew,
Who saw you climb -
Are they still true to you
As in the past time?
Ah, well -a -day!
For who could guess
The price you pay
To win Success.
But when 'tis yours at last,
You'd give your gold
To live again the past,
The days of old;
The days you loved so well,
When friends were few,
When, though you failed and fell,
Your friends were true
Ab, well -a -day!
For who could guess
The price you pay
To win success:
The flattering ring,
The false caress? -
And that's the thing
Men call success!
When Blond 16 Poison.
The blood must be filtered, otherwise
you are poisoned. I£ the kidneys fail
the liver is overworked, and becomes
torpid. By using Dr. Chase's Kidney -
Liver Pills you can get both these filt-
ering organs working right, and also
ensure healthful action of the bowels.
For this reason these pills are an ideal
family medicine. They cure bilious-
ness, chronic indigestion and kidney
disease.
A Born Lawyer.
A man who was not wise to the ways
of the world was the father of a bright
boy. He spent much time debating
how the lad's future was to be shaped,
and finally went for advice to the vil-
lage sage, who at one time had been a
part of the selfish striving world, and
who left it scarred and shaken, but full
of wisdom. And the sage told the per-
plexed father how to determine his
son's future, and the father straight-
away went and did what he was ad-
vised. But the next day he sought out
the sage in sore perplexity.
'The whole plan went wrong,' said
he, 'and I am in a quandary what to do
next,'
'What did I advise you to do?' asked
the wise man.
`You told me to leave George in a
room with a work on theology, an apple
and some small change; that if when I
returned I found him reading the book
he was to be made a clergyman, if eat-
ing the apple a farmer, if interested in
the money a banker.'
'Well?'
'But when 1 came back he was seat -
ad on the book with the half -devoured
apple in his hand and the money in his
pocket.'
'That settles it,' said the sage, 'the
lad is a born lawyer.'
There is no plant known tomer' which
given eneh a quantity M fond to the
acre as the banana; it yields 14 times
and more by weight than wheat, An-
other peculiar feature about the banana
is that no insect will attack it, and an-
other is that it is absolutely immune to
the diseases that fruits are subject to.
A Bad Witness.
A small Scottish boy was summoned
to give evidence against his father, who
was accused of making disturbances in
the street. Said the magistrate to him,
"Come, my wee mon speak the truth:
and let us know all ye kin about this
affair,"
"Weei, sir" said the lad, "d'ye ken
Iverness Street?"
"I do laddie," replied his Worship.
"Weel, ye gang along it, and turn
into the square, and cross the square."
"Yes, yes," said the judge encourag-
ingly.
"An' when ye gang across the square
ye turn to the right, and up into High
Street, an' keep on up High Street till
ye come to a pump."
"Quite right my lad; proceed," said
his Worship. "I know the old pump
well."
"Well," said the boy, with the most
infantile simplicity, "ye may gang and
pump it, for yell no pump me."
There is no real need of anyone being

lain's Tablets will cause an agreeable

What is the Best Age to Marry?
A number of well-known men and
women contribute their opinions of what
is the "right age for marriage."
Lady Warwick leads off with "Marry
at any age, so long as there is any real
love." Mme. Sarah Grand says that "the
time to marry must vary according to
temperament." Mrs. Kendall confesses
that her own views on marriage are
strange and wierd. "All should marry
in their own class of life, their own pro-
fessions," declares the famous actress.
"They may be happy. but when they
marry above their position or below it
the world suffers as well as themselves."
Miss Fanny Brough thinks the best
time is 21. Sir Francis Burnand, in an
exceedingly interesting letter, confess-
es that it is impossible to fix any right
age.
Mme. Bernhardt would say to the
man: "Look for a wife who will be
your companion." Toa woman: "Seek
a man whom you can trust to be a
sympathetic protector."

Prepared by Rev. P. M. Stearns.
According to the harmony of the gos-
pels, the Sermon on the Mount was fol-
lowed by His using Simon Peter's boat
as a pulpit and then filling their net
with ashes after a night of fruitless
toil. After that calve the healing of
the leper and the palsied man, the call
of Matthew and the feast he prepared
in bis own house, the healing oT the
impotent man at Bethesda, the man in
the synagogue with the withered band,
the meet of prayer. the choosing of the
I ccelve, the eern:bu on the plum, the
nettling or the-ceuturioti's servant, the
raising to life of the widow's son and
much teaching day by day. Whether
this is quite correct as to the order of
'events or not is not all important if we
eau by faith see ourselves day by day
with Him who, being anointed with
the Holy Ubost and with power, went
about doing good and healing all that
were oppressed of the devil, God being
with Slim and doing through Him the
miracles and signs and wonders (Acts
x. 38; ii. 22I.
There was one great and good man
wile did not see these wonders of His
poster from day to day, for he was
shut up in a pt;lson for the truth's sake,
but he beard of tbeut and evidently
wondered why the nue upon whom lee
had seen the Spirit descend like a dove
and remain upou I31m, who. he bad
been told by God, was the Messiah and
whom he ttad pointed out as the Lamb
of God (John 1, 31.36). did not. deliver
him from prison, for it had been pre-
dicted concerning Him that He would
proclaim liberty to the captives and
the opening or the prison to them that
are bound (iso, lxi, 1). As far as we
know Jesus never visited John in pris-
on nor sent him any message up to this
time, and the father of lies was no
doubt very busy with John questioning
the way of God and the love of God
and insinuating thdt, after all, John
must have been mistaken iu pointing
out Jesus as the Riess!ah. If John had
not been in some way and In soma
measure offended with Jesus would He
have sent biro the message He did,
"Blessed is be whosoever shall not be
offended in Me?" (Verse 6.) To the
questiou of John through the two disci-
ples whom he sent, "Art thou he that
should, or do we look for another?"
(verse 3) Jesus in that same hour
wrought many miracles and said, "Go
your way and tell John what things ye
have seen and heard," and tben He add.
ed the word about not being .trended
(Luke vii, 20.23). At one time Jesus
said to the Jews, "If 1 do not the works
of my Father believe Me not, but if
do, though ye believe not Me, believe
the works that ye may know and be-
lieve that the Father is in Me and I in
Him" (John x, 37, 38). All this is in
accord with last week's lesson on the
necessity of works as an evidence, and
doing always precedes teaching (Matt.
v, 19; Mark vi, 30; Acts 1, 1; iv, 20;
Lul:e zxly, 19). Notwithstanding all
Ills mighty works on behalf of Israel
when and after He had brought them
out of Egypt, they were constantly
befog offended with Him and murmur
ing against Him. They spoke against
Wilt, they believed not fa Him, they
provoked him, they forgot Him, and
many a time He, being full of nonlpas-
sion, turned His anger away front
them, for He remembered that they
were but flesh (Ps. izxviii). What a
picture of Ourselves and how muck wwb
need that absolute confidence in Rim
and obedience to Him at all times
which will keep as from ever being of-
fended
ffended (John 1,1, 1-4).
The disciples of John having depart -
ea, Jesus said to the multitudes that
John vitas no reed shaken 'With. the
wind nor Was he such as live In kings'
houses, gorgeously appareled and living
delicately, but he was Indeed the mes-
senger predicted by Isaiah, and no

man, and if they had received him he

pare lt{att. xvil, 12, 13, but do not fail
to notice In the preceding verses that
the real Elijah is yet to come. The
saying, "He that is least in the king-
dom of heaven is greater than he"
(verse 11). has perplexed manly because
they have not noticed the meaning of
"in the kingdom" and have not under-
stood that the kingdom Gannet eome

the least in his resurrection glory will
be greater than John was, and John
himself, 'will be greater than he ever
