Club. He was telling of his exper- iences among a tribe .of .cannibals; in ar the tropics. tsaztea Ur tA. native ,had told him a legend about a bird which had eaten all the KaRM4 FK EMING,, M.4,ASSOCIATE SECRrYdRV rro �fat and had left only the lean for the HABITS i:ornfort or• emu, And the encu was mad, Sir pacifier. Hubert said that he did not blame It is not natural for a child to haver the emu for being mad. The native ,rhe habits of lifeare important be- aeause upon them depend so much of 'the happiness and success of life. Un - lees the child learns early in life how live happily with other people and g1 along well vi lx them, he will, +,t'4ien he grows up, meet with diffi- ectilties on account of his inability to tpi. with other people . in Leis been 'cress and social life, If we aro to achieve SaiCCess in work and, at the same time, enjoy your daily task, more than anything eelse we need to form good habits. :Such habits, in adult life, ;are the re - email: of the building `up, in childhood, .p aof habits in promptness and in find- .Ing pleasure in worts; well done. Children acquire habits very read- r•egardless of whether the habits ..are good or bad. The baby soon de- mands that mother continue to sit ;with him while rtegoes to sleep, if rslze' has started to do so. It used .to lite thought that a baby should be docked to sleep because, after he had :been rocked for a few times, he cried when he was not put to sleep in this 'way. We know now that itis far 'better for the baby to be placed in *kis bed and left quiet and alone for ;`erns sleep. There is one habit which is both anidesirable and dangerous, and yet it ersists. We refer to the habit of the+ something in his mouth all the time, added that his people.. were : always The fact that he cries for it does not cross when they did not get enough fat to cat. Then he went on to . say that his people were all right now, week that had died last w as the.baby tl a was good and fat. Sir Hubert asked if they had eaten the baby, The na- tive ; said they had, and it was good eating, and the mother of the baby was wearing the bones in a bag ar- ound her neck. Sir Hubert talked to the women and she showed him the bones. He persuaded her to give them to him, and he sent them to The Biritish Museum. The native, told Sir Hubert, that the hast man they had eaten was old and had not very much fat on him, and so was not very good eating. Maybe, there is something in these perrenial jokes about 'nice, fat •missionaries'. It seems very revolting to us to even think about it. Actually, very little has been learn- ed about foods,., until the last few years. Even now, they are just at the kedge of things and there is so much that remains to be learned. One would never suspect the lack of fat, in the diet would make people : irri- table and short-tempered, but it does. Yet, when we come to think about it, our fat friends have pretty good tem- pers. It is the lean ones; who are most inclined to be irritable. show that the comfort is good for him. He does so simply because: he has been given rven the' habit. Not only is the comfort not nec- essary, but it is actually harmful. True, the baby stops crying when he gets it, but he stops because he has got what he wants, and not because the comfort soothes him. - As a mat- ter of fact, the continued sucking ir- ritates him, Ask any smoker why he does not suck a dry pipe; he will tell you that doing so causes • an uncom- fortable feeling, and so he does not do it. Continued use of the comfort al- ters the arch of the mouth. Baby's bones are soft and yielding, and so they become permanently misshapen art theresult of the pressure due to the continued sucking. The condition of projecting upper teeth with a short tight uppper lip, is another deform- ity caused by the comfort. In addition, comforts cannot be kept clean. 'They are sure to become sciiled, and very apt to become con- taminated with germs which are car- ried into the baby's mouth.

The sentence makes a fresh start. "Kingdom." not "kings," is the right reading. Christians are no- where said to be kings. Collectively they are a kingdom—"a kingdom of priests" (Ex. 19:6), or as St, Peter, following the Septuagint, gives it, "a royal priesthood" (1 Peter 2:9).

"The Seven Churches" sym- bulized the Christian church through- out the world, seven .being the per- fect 'number, the number of complet- ion. There 'were other churches in Asia.. besides the seven here selected, for ihstance, Colossae and Hicrapolis (Col., 4:13). Paul also wrote to seven churches. Grace to you and peace. St. Paul constantly uses this saluta- tion, and St. Peter uses it as well as St. John. "As the Christian greeting, it transcends while, it embraces the Greek and Hebrew salutations. There is no tinge of the sadness of separa- tion; it is the greeting of hope and repass, grounded on the only true foundation of either, the grace of God, which is the well -spring of life and love." From him who is and who was and who is to come. This is the name of God revealed to Moses at the burning bush, Ex, 3: 13-15. and from the seven Spirits that are before his throne. "The `seven spir- its' thus made co-ordinate with the Father and the Son can scarcely be other than the Moly Ghost, who is known to us in his sevenfold opera- tions and gifts, and who perhaps has some seventold character in .himself; which we cannot and need not under- stand, but of which there seem to. be intimations in Rev. 3:1; 4:5; 5:6, and in Zech, 3:9; 4:10, by which these are certainly to be illustrated." And from .Jesus Christ, This com- pletes the picture of the Triune God, Who is the faithful witness.
