The heart must not be set upon earthly things as the chief , good. In this and the two following verses is shown the difference between heavenly mindedness ` and worldliness. Moth -Easter treasures, consisting part- ly in costly dresses stored up, were lia- ble to be consumed by moths. -J., F. & B. rust -Any corroding agency. F. rupt-Destroy. Treasures that are mere -I ly earthly are destructible .There is some element or principle adapted to in,e jure or destroy each one. Nothing earth- ly is enduring. 20. Treasures in heaven -This has reference to spiritual goad. To lay up treasurein heaven is to be- come possessed of those graces of the Spirit that shall last beyond the present life. Love, truth, peace and joy are am- • ong these. These .treasures endure. There is no danger of laying up too large a store. Moth 'that ruins clothing, rust that defaces and wears away metals, thieves that carry away wealth have no • •power over these heavenly treasures. If Our treasures are wealth, riches take wings and fly away; if beauty, disease may impair it; if learning, idiocy; if strength, paralysis; if talent, insanity; and of all our treasures,, in whatever form, the grand thief is death."-Whe- don. Heavenly treasures are ours for- ever. 21. Where your treasure is, there will your heart be -God's will is that our hearts shall be set on Him. While we are taken up with earthly good, we have no appreciation of that which is spiritual and heavenly. One's character is like the object he loves. 22. The light of the body is the eye -Jesus uses an illustration to en- force the troth He is declaring. It is through tho eye that eve gather the widest knowledge of the world at large. Eye be single -The eye is said to be sin- gle if it is in a normal and healthy con- dition. It is then capable of discerning objects clearly. Full of light. -.There 1s no uncertainty as to what 'surrounds him. He sees the way ;before him and notices the dangers that may exist. He . sees the things that are good and desir. able.

The life more than meat, and the body than raiment -The life as a gift from God, as well as the body, came to us without our being anxious, and these are superior to meat, the old English word. for food, and raiment. If God pro- vides the life and the body, certainly he will provide these things which are es- sential to their welfare. 26. Behold - Take as an example. Fowls -This word formerly included au birds. Sow not, neither .. reap --Sowing, reaping and gathering into barns for safe keeping are not forbidden. These acts are right and needful for men.

Nate .... love -When the de - mends of the two masters conflict, the servant must fulfil those of one and neglect the other, and this course is certain to displease one of the masters., There will in the very nature of the ease spring up a greater desire to please one than the other, which will result in a condition' in which one master will be esteemed and the other despised. There will naturally be a greater attraction in the one master than in the other. 'Ye cannot serve God and mammon -'The application is pointed. Here is the same contrast as between treasures in heaven and treasures on earth. II. Human anxiety (vs. 25.29.) 25.

Catarrhozone proves es- pecially good in those chronic cases where rau- cous drops down the throat, sickens the stom- ach, and pollutes the breath. When the nostrils are stuffed, only a few breaths through the in- haler are needed to clear the passages, and where there is coughing and sore bronchial tubes, the soothing, healing proper- ties of Catarrhozone act almost as magic. Once you stop taking medicine into the stom- ach and get the healing oils and pure balsams of Catarrhozone at work you can be sure of quick and lasting cure for nose colds, catarrh, weak lour s, bronchitis and speaker's sere throat.

Toronto despatch: A deputation repre- senting the stationary engineers waited upon Hon. J. S. Duff yesterday and asked for certain amendments to the act respecting stationary engineers, which would place greater restrictions on the employment on men who haven't passed the examinations. They asked that all engines and plants having a capacity of 23 h. p. or over and a steam pressure of 10 lbs. or over should come within the juriedietion of the act. At present it only covers plants of 50 horse -power or over or steam pressure of 20 lbs. They also asked for a standard by which the h. p. should be figured. Another request. was that the Board of Stationary Engineers should be given power to enforce the act, and another was that two years' 'practical experience he one of the requisites for passing the examination. They also asked for an addition to the act providing that it eover persons oper- ating a hoisting plant in any building in (aurae of construction or having I harge of steam rollers. The objects of the amendments were to safeguard human life and property from the danger of boiler explosions, and also to improve the standard of station- ary engineering as a profusion. 4.e ZAM-BUK CURES PILES EVIDENCE FROM ALL SOURCES There are so many so-called "re- medies" for piles that sufferers are of- ten at a loss what to try. • Piles are caused by distension of the hemorr- hoid veins, and the tissue becomes high- ly inflamed, dry and sore.
