It had leaves only and was an emphatic type of a fair profession of religion without the fruit of the spirit. time of figs was not yet -One variety of the rig tree bore fruit late in the au- tumn, and the figs often hung on the tree until spring. In this case there Was neither the autumn fruit nor the early fruit of the new crop, even thougli there were leaves in abund- ance. 14. no man eat fruit of thee - Since it was but deceptive and useless, a barren cumberer of the ground, Jesus made it the eternal warning against a life of hypocrisy continued 'until it was too late. -Farrar.

The Gentiles were thus excluded, Since they were not allowed in the temple itself.

All this had to be changed into the money of the tem- ple, which alone could be accepted in payment of the temple -tax, which was a half -shekel required of every Jew. The business of the changers of money was lawful, if it had been carried on honestly and in the right place. that sold doves -Doves were used for of- ferings in certain cases, and a market was maintained in the sacred enclos- ure, and was largely in the hands of the priests, who enriched themselves by this traffic. 16. not .... carry any vessel through the temple -The peo- ple were accustomed to carry burdens through the temple grounds -to short - the distance, and thus they made a. thoroughfare through the temple court, Jesus forbade such profana- tion. 17.

Queetione,-Witere clid ,Testis and his alsciples matte their home at tine time? letheain why Jesus was IlengrY, Give the incident of the fig tree. What evils did Jesus find in the temple? On what previews occasion bad Jesus cleansed the temple? What lessons does the withered fig tree teach us° What aro the conditions upon which God answers Prayer? What cmestions did the Jewish leaders ask Jesus? Hoe did Jesus answer his questioners? PRACT (CAL SURVJS' Topic -Child's Authority, I. Publicity asserted and exercised. II, Officially questioned, HI. Fully vindicated by himself, I. Publicly asserted and exorcised. The conflict between Jesus and the leaders of the Jewish nation was at its lieight. At such a crisis Jesus was perfectly conscious of the situatian of, things. He had wept over the fate of Israel and hero he warns them of it The cursing of the fig tree was both a parable and a prophecy exhibiting Christ as the fatal judge of a PeePle who would soon crucify him. It was a symbolic act, a lesson for tee Jews, a correct representation of the hier- arcby party in Jerusalem, adorned with pretentious piety, but utterly bar- ren of the real fruit of it holy life or reverence for God's Son. 'The diseiples were amazed at this exercise of power on the part of their Master.- Ho lived tho fig tree for a parable With which to teach them and warn them against mere profession. There was one among the twelve to -whoin the curse applied. Passing from the symbol of "judgment in the house of God," he gave thorn forceful instruction as to the power or faith and prayer. His teachings were as deep as the foun- tains of truth. He knew his disciples would be called to undertake e.iffioult works, as hard to flesh and blood as the removing of a mountain. It was not only to faith as a general spiritual force of boundless potency and yalue to which Jesus directed his disciples, but to a faith which believed truth to be stronger than unrighteousuess„ good than evil. • Jesus knew how impossible it seem- ed from a human standpoint for a few unlettered men, with no force but their faith in him, to eohieve the mighty task of causing the heathen and He- brew world to bow to the power of Christianity, yet that was tae promise of scripture. They were thus reminded that faith can go confidently when it treads on scripture ground. They were called upon the test the bounty of the Eternal. The conditions set forth for effectual prayer were right relations to God and man. The spirit of for- giveness was to Ahem an essential. Faith, prayer and forgiveness were to be foundation stones to the disciples when their Master should be no longer with them in bodily presence. There was an unsparing severity in. Christ's action and language when rescuitig the temple from its profane users. He re- garded it as the house of hes Father, the house of prayer, for the service of all nations, wich gave it dignity and eacredness. He looked on the mean - lag of its name and the holiness of its purpose. it had been erected for the manifestation of the divine glory, the celebration ofdivine worship, the real- ization of divine communion. To turn It into any secular purpose si as an unjuatifiable. abuse. 11. Officially questioned. Priestly importance and the spirit of selfish- ness were potent antagonists to true worship, yet Christ ruled in the midst of his enemies though they would not permit him to -do so undisturbed. At this time the teaching of Jesus was characterized l'y the assumption of a superiority of knowledge whale gall- ed the pride of bis questioners. His public entry into Jerusalem as Ring had aroused their hostility. His cleans- ing of the temple was an net which they felt to be an attack on them- selves. A. formal deputation surrounded him and sought to silence him by questioning his authority. They as- sumed their judicial right to inquire, to silence and condemn, but their in- quiry was hostile in its design. Jesus had abundantly authenticated himself, so their seentingly justifiable ttet was only a shameless avowal of unbelief. It was highest rebellion in the disguise of strict legality. HI. Fully vindicated by himsel6 Upon the doctrine of Christ's divinity depended the truth of his teaching, the perfection or his example and the in- finite valtie of his sacrifice. He ex- hibited the utter incompetency of his enemies to judge his claim, and put them into a dilemma from whieh there wasno escape. By the might of his wisdom he constrained them to pro- nounce beforo the people in the tem- ple, the sentence of their own degrada- tion, while his authority shone forth In unveiled brightness. T. R.

When the provincial police examined the body of Mias Yorke it was found that the limbs had been severed and n ere missing. A search was made for them, and in the furnace some bones were discovered. These were said by the doctors to be the left foot and leg bone of a human being. In an effort to find some traces of the other limb the cellar and house were thoroughly ransacked, and the various boxes and other things stored in the cellar were cleaned out. Nothing was found, and It was thought by the police that the leg had been coneumed in the furnace. Shortly after the funeral of Miss Yorke, Mrs. George Bell, a friend of the Yorke faintly, moved by curiogity, walked through the grounds of Dr. Robinson's place. She noticed a gar- bage can containing potatoes and seine rubbish overturned. Examining it closely, she found a charred bone lying in the pile. The village authorities were immediately notified and the contents of the can thoroughly search- ed. Near the bottom were also found more bones, the bottle and the purse skeleton. Dr. .7. H. Wilsott examined the bones and declared that they were Inman. and those of the right leg and foot. Part of a burned shoe was also found. POLICE UNDER CRITICI23111. The discovery created a sensation in the village, and many severe criti- cisms were made in regard to the manner in which the police had handled the ease. One man stated that he was with the officers', when the garbage ,an was thrown out and stated it was known that Miss Yorke carried a large purse on the night she disappeared and that the police had made an attempt to find some trace of it. The funeral was one of •the largest known in Tarnworth. The Methedist Churth was crowded and the cortege was over a mile long, The service was conducted by Rev. Joseph Barnes, the pastor, who spoke on' the "deceit of sin." In concluding the pastor said, "Sin and disgrace are inseparable, and death and woe follow in its wake. The devil may frequently appear in the guise of an angel of light, and in our lives it is often hard to distinguish the evil in the soul." The pastor condemned the present day 'society, and declared that it \Vag not the sin coMmitted whichpeople feared, but the egpostire whith fols lowed. "The effect of this is plaittly evident to -day," he said, "and we have seen the fruits in a remarkable way. As the result two famillee are now plunged in the greatest grief end sor- row.

LUXEMBURG Seizure of Neutral State a Direct Violation of European Treaty. London, Aug. 5. -Paul Cambon, the French Ambassador at. London, has issued an official declaration threw- ing on Germany, the whole responsi- bility for the' present situation, and anything which may ensue. He says that Germany has not declared war, and that the German Ambassador has not left Paris, yet the german troops are invading France. "Our pacific intentions," he added, "may be judged from the fact that, although we knew. what was going on, we withdrew the French troops ten kilometers from the frontier, in order to prevent a conflict." The Ambassador recounts the gen- eral facts in tho situation, and con- cludes: "It is well that at the be- ginning the world should know these facts." Vivani, the French Premier and Minister of Foreign Affairs, has sent another telegram to the French Am- baesador here, saying: "The German Covernment has made acts of war against France, without provocation on our side, and without a declaration of war on either side. "France has scrupulously respected a zone of ten kilometers, Which we have maintained ever since mobiliza- tion, between our troops and the fron- tier." ' The Marconi company has announc- ed that all employees called to the service will retain their positions, and their salaries will continue. THE LUXEMBURG VIOLATION. - The French Embassy has received the following statement from M. Vivi - ani, the French Premier: "I have just sent the following to the French Minister at Luxemburg: Will you inform the Premier that in conformity with the treaty of Lon- don of 1867, the Government of the Republic intends to respect the neu- trality of Luxemburg, as has been shown by her attitude. • "'The 'violation of this neutrality by Germany is of such a nature as to oblige France to take into account the care of her defence and her inter- ests.' " The Premier of Luxemburg has protested to the German Government, , M. Vivant continues, "'and has in- formed the Ambassador in Paris that early this (Sunday) morning the Ger- mans entered Luxemburg territory by the Wasserbilim and Remieh bridges, and marched towards the southern part of the country and capital. The armored trains with troops and am- munition moved toward this point. The French commander at Petit Croix, on the Luxemburg frontier, twelve miles front Delfort, has informed the GoVernnient that the Germans opened fire on the French posts there.

What is 1t3 A teat bath. It has often amazed me that cowkeepers do not think of it. They get a dirty rag and some hot water, and bathe a teat, and make a wet mess under the cow that entirely fails of the object. All one bas to do It to Otani a widespread pickle. bottle or Jam -jar, and mix the medicaments in it, and hold it up to the udder With the teat completely immersed, without mess and without waste. The most suitable bath for these eruptive teat troubles is one composed of alum and glycerine. Alum acts as an astringent, glycerine as an emollient; the two acting together dry this sore while keeping the skin supple. When using a lotion in which glycerine forms a part , the skin should not be mopped dry, the heat shotild bo allowed to dramback into tho bottle for use next time, and then allowed to dry, by which means* soft film of glycerine is left upon the healthy part. The proportion for a pint bottle is 2 drams of alum and 2 ozs, of glycerine, filling up the bottle with water -pre- ferably rainwater. ECZEMA -This means the formation of little vesicles or bladders after a prelim- inary period of population, or merely of redness. so far as the naked eye can sofa. Eczema may occur at any time and in any species of animals. It is near- ly always due to some disturbance In the relation or proportion of the blood elements, and indigestion caused by diet- efic error accounts for most cases. Some others are caused by imperfect function on the part of the kidneys or the liver, as the skin performs vicarious functions, or tries to do what the kidneys or other emuctories have failed in. The effect upon the s•sin of trying to pass urea which should have gone In the urine is extremely irritating. Uriniferous sweats aro well known both to medical and veterinary doctors, and are very sig- nificant. They often prelude a great change in the patient. If the urea which has been poisoning the brain and nerve centres is got rid of by the skin, there ia it happy release from the severer symptoms In a short time. If, then, these vicarious functions are borne in mind, we shall not be too hasty in applying remedies outside to chock the action of the skin, out rather seek for the cause elsewhere and remove it. The out• ward treatment, then, of eruptions which come from within should' be only of a simple, soothing nature to allay itch- ing and prevent the animal from making things worse by rubbing and scratch- ing.. • Treetment of Eczema -Change food, purge With salines, and apply the fol- lowing; Acid boracie, 10 per cent.; gly- cerine, 10 percent.; water, 80 per cent. -B.

The fresh lea.ves, if eaten by stock, sometimes cause poisoning. The best thing to do with a wild cherry tree, .12 the shade is not absolutely needed, Is to cut it down and let the nourishment it saps from the ground be supplied to some grass or crop that will be more benefieial.
