Place: the IIorns of Hattin, near the centre of the west coast of the Sea of Galilee. This lesson is a part of Christ's sermon on the mount. Men are known by their fruits; good trees bring forth good fruit; cor- rupt trees bring forth corrupt fruit; a profession of godliness is not sufficient; those who do what Christ commands are like the man who built his house on a rock -when the storms came the house did not fall; those who do ort obe Christ's words are like the man w1a built on the sand -when the storms cam the house fell. II. Topic: The Lord's Day. Place: and near Capernaum. While Jesus an His disciples were walking through field of grain on the Sabbath day, the disciples plucked the grain and ate it to satisfy their hunger; the Pharisees found fault; Jesus justified their course by referring to David's act in eating the shew-bread, and to the priests who were obliged to' work on the Sabbath; he healed a man with a withered hand; they would lift a sheep out of a pit on the Sabbath day, and a man is better than a sheep. III. Topic: A great faith and a great helper. Tears: Capernaunr, Nein. This miracle was performed soon after the sermon on the mount. A sick slave; the elders sent; the centurion's good deeds urged; friends are sent, and the centurion goes himself, to meet Jesus; be says, I am not worthy, trouble not yourself, speak the word only: Jesus says this is great faith, not found in Israel; the cure wrought at once. At Nain he met a funeral procession; young man raised from the dead; fes fell on the people. IV. Topic: Jesus, the sinner's friend. Place: In some towns of Galilee, perhaps in Capernaum. Simon, a Pharisee, in- vited Jesus to dine; a woman -a. sinner, came in nil washed, wiped, kissed and anointed his feet. Simon had failed to perform the common acts of hospitality, and Jesus now calls his attention to his coldness and lack of love; reproves bin for being displeased with the woman a'parable; a question; a woman for fiven. V. Topic: How to hear the word,.Place: Near Capernaan, on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. Jesus left Peter'shouse, and the 'multitudes followed Him; spoke many things inparables; this was His Bret one; four kinds of ground rep- resent four classes of people; many flings caused unf.ruitfniness. We can, by Grod's help, cause the soil of our hearts to be changed from bad to good ground. We canovercome hindrances and bring forth geed fruit. VI. Topic: Problems of god and evil in the world. Plaice: Cn,penaum, on the sfiore of the Sea of Galilee. Jesus speaks another parable. Good seed is sown, but an enemy sowed tares. Both rnust grow together until theharvest. .1 esus ex- plains the parable in vs. 37.39. At the end of the world those who "do iniquity" will be east into a furnace of fire, but the righteous "will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father." VII. Topic: Great facts respecting sal- vation. Place: On the eastern shore of the Sea of Galilee. After Jesus had con- cluded "the parables by the sea," He crossed over the Sea of Galilee to the eastern shore. A fierce demoniac met Him .When he saw Jesus he ran and worshipped Him; Jesus commanded theunclean spirit to come out of the man; the demons entered into a herd of swine; the swine perished in the sea; the people besought Jesus to depart out of their congaVIII. Topie: Lessons fromthe death of John the Baptist. Place: The foreress Macherus. The death of John .ocenrred about the time the Twelve returned. Herod Antipas was ruler of Galilee and Peres. When he heard, .of the mighty works of Christ he said John is risen.d John harebuked sin in high places. This is necessary, for, allowed to go unre- buked, the sinis made popular and the moral sense of the community is dead- ened. Ilened's course brought . disaster to himself. TheIX. Topic: e great gospel feast. Place: Near Bethsaida. Clod can supply bread where it is least likely to be found. Five thousand are fed, besides women and children; twelte baskets of frag- ments gathered. After performing this wonderful mira+ble the people were about to make Jesus a king, but He would notpermit it. He hadno ambition for worldly glory. That night He prayed nearly al'l night on the mountain alone and between three end six o'clock went to IIis disciples, walking on the waves. X. Topic: Bringing the unsaved to Christ. Place: On the borders ofPhoe- nicia. Sermons on .thebread of life and pollution, just delivered; the people plot against Him; Jesus and Itis disciples go to the borders of Phoenicia; a Gentile woman 'beseeches 'Min to cast the devil out of her daughter; Jesus replies• that it is not proper to give the children's bread to dogs; she asks for the crumbs; severe tests do not discourage hem; she admits that she deserves nothing and ap- peals to His mercy; Jesus commemds her faith; her request is granted and her d eighter is ]sealed. XI. Topic: Confessing Christ, Place: Near Caesarea Philippi. Jesus asked His disciples who moo said Ho was; some said John the Baptist, end others 1Clijah,. Jeremiah, or one of the prophets. Who do you say I am? Peter says, the Christ. Jesus blessed Peter. Man had not re- , sealed it, but the Farther bad; Christ is ties foundation rock; gates of Hades shall not prevail against His clhurdh; the 'pays of the kingdom of heaven given; Christ tells of His death; Peter rebukes Him; Get thee behind. me, Satan; saving and losing the ilte; no profit to gain the whole world and lose the soul. XII. 'Topic: Lessons of thetransfigura- tion. Place; Mount Berman. Peter, James and John go with Jesus into the amount to pray. As Jesus prays He is transfigured; Moses and Elijah appear; converse regarding His departure from the world; the disciples, fully awake, see Jesus and the two mien in their glory; enter into a cloud; hear a voice;nl Jesus comencled j alone with Jesus. Golden Test: Never man spake like tins man (Jolinvii. 49). Lesson I. Hearing and doing. Many "hear" but few "do." Those who do are on the rock; these who hear only are on the sand. The storms came upon all alike. The house--character-on the sand fell. The fall was great because there was no chance for recovery. All was lost, and .the loss was forever. o II. The Sabbath should be kept holy. e Sabbath means rest, and this day is to be a day of rest. It should be kept, 1. In As a day of rest from worldly business. d 2. As a day to be spent in holy exercise, a "Unless a man worships God at stated times, he is not likely to worship hies at all." The Christian church has always observed the first day of the week as the Christian Sabbath. III. Great faith. The centurion was humble. , felt unworthy, and had great faith in Jesus. Jesus admired his faith and commended him above the Jews. His faith was honored and the sick slave was immediately restored. Jesus is no respecter of persons, but he does re- spect faith, wherever he finds it. IV. Hope for the lost: None need de- spair. Christ loves all. The sinner who comes in humility and faith will be sav- ed. Christ will silence the fault-finders. V. Christ's first parable. In order to have a good harvest there must be (1) a sower, (2) good seed, (3) good soil, (4) good care. Christ, his disciples, all Christian workers, were the sowers. The word of God -gospel truth -is the seed. There are three .kinds of unfruitful soil: a the wayside, the stony ground, the thorny ✓ ground. Many things destroy the seed: birds the wicked one; the sun scorcheth it -tribulation and persecution; thorns choke -the cares, riches and pleasures of this life and the lust of other things. We must not alow any of these things to de- stroy our faith. The good soil is the good heart that brings forth fruit with patience. Vh The parable of the Tares. A som- e er-the Son of man; went into his field -the world; to sow good seed - the - truths of the gospel, which operate in the heart and produce true children of the kingdom; his enemy -the devil; came while men slept -while Christians were asleep spiritually; and sowed tares -the children of the wicked one. The final separation could not be made un- til the harvest, at the end of the world. VII, Christ's right to destroy the swine. 1. Christ's part do the -matter Was only permissive - the .demons: wrought the ruin. 2. It was prob- ably a judgment on the Jews. 3. While the swine were lost, the man was saved. 4. Christ, as owner absolute of all things, may destroy what he pleases. 5. It may have been a great mercy to the Gadarenes-at ]east a needed warn- ing. 6. It is pictured forth the violent and debasing nature of the demons. 7. It was plain proof that the demons had left the man for they are seen in the swine. VIII. As to conscience several things need to be remembered: 1. It is mighty to detect and uncover sin, but powerless to remove or control it, 2. it is the voice of God in the soul; but Satan, by his tricks, sometimes makes it the voice of the devil. 3. It is the Christian preacher's true point of attack. 4. Cor- rected, by Christ, and guided by his word it becomes true incl safe, IX. "Give ye them to eat." A ts the disciples began to obey, the supply be- gan to increase. The Master's touch of power was on it, and so it was equal to the great need. Has a command been given? Then God stands ready to sup- ply the strength, talent, wisdom, neces- sary to obey it. God's commands are the wings of the soul. X. Faith tested and rewarded. Christ perfects our faith by testing it. True faith will meet and overcome every hindrance. It knows no defeat; ib knows no discouragements. As the hind- rances increase faith Increases. It turns discouragements into victory. Christ always reward personal s a pe sonar faith in him- self. X.I. Divine authority given. In or- der to organize and establish the Christ- ian hristian church Christ gave his apostles great power and authority represented by the keys. "Every Christian has, in his de- gree, the keys of the kingdom of heaven. By doing his duty in praying, giving, working, souls will be brought in, 'ray neglect they will be left out." XII. We should not quit the world to build tabernacles in the mount, but come from out the celestial brightness to shed light in the world. SHUT OUT OF HUNGARY. Minister of Interior Confiscates Circulars of a Canadian Land Company. London, June 11. -The following ap- peared in the Budapest newspapers: "An association founded in Canada un- der the name of 'the Honresealcers' Land Colonization Company, Limited,' has opened imposing offices at Winni- peg for the purpose of enticing Hungar- ian farmers to emigrate, promising to sell them land ati oheap Tates. The company has flooded the whole of Hun- gary with letters, circulars and pain- phlets which are well caloulated to mis- lead credible farmers. The Minister of the Interior, therefore, has ordered the letters and pamphlets to be confiscated, and it 'sthould further be explained that the lands belonging to the company are several thousand kilometres distant from the ocean, and the rugged ellmatte conditions prevailing are those extraor- dinarily unfavorable to our comntry people." -.rsmgrsu+w,wwiviuw,r.nuwrNN•++�ww.M•/M,�..,quw rWwswrYwew.a,.w.rrrnjiww•ww.!..,nr,.WywYu+�M•rr,. ... ..-.-..-.....

Pinkham you aro confiding your private ills to a woman - a woman whose experience with women's diseases covers a great many years. Mrs. Pinkham is the slaughter -in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for_ many years under her. direction, and since her decease, Elie has been advising sick women free of charge. Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, know- ing full well that they ought to have im- mediate assistance, but a; natural modesty impels them to shrink, from exposing themselves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physi- cian. It is unnecessary. 'iirithout money or price you can consult a woman whoce knowledge from actual experience is great. Mrs. Rlnf:lram's Standing Invitation. Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs, Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and and answered by women only. A woman can freely Salk of her private illness to a woman; thus has been established the eternal confi- dence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which hasnever been broken. Out of the vast volume of ex- perience which she has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge that will help your case. She asks nothing in return except your good -will., and her advice has relieved thousands: Snrely any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she does not take advantage of tide generous offer of assistance. _If you are ill, don't hesitate to get a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkharn's Vegetable Compound at once, and write Airs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., for epecial advice. When a medicine has been successful in restoring to health so many women, you cannot well say, without trying it I do not believe it will help me."

Bradstreet's on Trade. Montreal.- Wholesale and retail trade dications led merchants to believe they (would be. Hardware is moving fairly well, and metals continue in active de- mand. A feature has been the sharp de- cline in tin prices, which had been very high, The grocery trade is steady, with a fair demand for staple lines. There has been some complaint about the slow- ness of collections and country remit- tances, and there has been more applica- tiont for renewals than has been usual. The boot and shoe trade has, for the nsonrent, a quiet tone. Travellers are out with fall lines, and a good trade is ex- pected. Toronto. -The continuance of cold weather is still affecting the retail de- mand for spring and summer lines of dry goods, and the sorting trade is a little quiet.

PRODUCT, Boycotted in the Stores-Presaat Ex- posure Likely to Effectually Kill the Trade in Canned Goode in Lcoaen. London, June 11:-'•-lt is stated that the .lclnrdralty and War Uf`ic in teen. eent•ratts placed since The - Jungle appeared 'here, have stimilatfel in ail of them that the canned meets sup- plied roust be from British colonic s, n uie of it to come from the United Stetes•. The menagers of t-fvo of the largekt west end department stores say that the trade in canned goods has been failing off for years, and that the pres- ent exposure will probably kill it so far as they are concerned. The slrimp gradu- ally ine'reasecr after l'pton Sinelair's novel, The Jungle, was first noticed here, and dt has extended to all canned goods, including meat, fish and fruit. whether they are American or not. :lire revulsion against food of this sort is shared by the humblest classes, among whom, however, it nenst be admitted, there has always been prejudice. against canned foods. The inmates of 'some of the workhouses are eagerly availing themselves of a plaus- ible opportunity, and are openly protest- ing against being fed on canned corned beef, which is largely served in such in- stitutions. The guardians of some of the workhouses, fearing trouble, have de- cidet to eease using the objeetivnable fend, while others will use less of it. The erumblings of the army and navy have been growing since the resela- tions began, and threaten to .become troublssomc. BINE WORKERS. X,300,000 MINERS DEMAND MEAS- URES EASURES FOR GREATER SAFETY. Inspectors From the Ranks -Important Regulations to be Asked to Secure Greater Safety for Those Employed Underground, London, June 11. -The Congress of Miners, representing 1,300,000 miners in Great Britain, the United States, Ger- many, Austria and Belgium, met in the 'Westminster Palace Hotel to -deny and passed a resolution that repre- sentatives 'of tihe miners should ap- proach the Government of every coun- try in an endeavor to obtain important regulations to ensure greater safety for the workers in mines. The congress declared that, consid- ering the Courrieres disaster, every Government should appoint mine in spectors from th.e ranks of the work- ers with the right to inspect mines as often as they may think necessary. The resolution adds: "Their strict duty also would be to take control of the works day and night, whenever the ,delegates might request!' A German delegate, named Sackse, who is a member of the Reichstag, expressed astonishment at the freedom of speech that was permitted in Eng- land. and said he was determined to return to (fern; ny and endeavor to unite the workers there in an effort to obtain similar freedom. FOOLISH AND FATAL. Boy Accepts Chum's Dare, Leaps Into Wheat, Smothers. Lancaster, Pa., June 11. -Walter Lei- sey, 9 years old, accepted a dare from his chum, William Slott, 12 years old, but it brought Trim death in a frightful form. The boys were playing on the third floor of a grain elevator at Ephrata, when Scott dared Leisey to jump into a bin which bolds thousands of tons of wheat. ''l'he boy jumped, ignorant of 1 the tremendous suction, which slowly 1 drew him down as in a quicksand. Men,, succeeded in reaching the boy, half buried in the wheat, but the suction was. .o 4 e great they were enable to pull him out. The lad slowly disappeared un- til he was buried, while, Ids father stood by helpless. TO COMYfAT ANARCHISTS.
