SELF SACRIFICE NOT WASTED
Christ's Satisfaction of the Woman's
Apparently Upeless' Deed Is Typical
of the Master's Attitude Always to
Those Who, Do What They Can'anci
All They Can — Draw Lessons of
Gratitude.
Entered according to Act of Parliament of Canada,
in the year moo by Frederica Diver. of Toronto,
At the Department of Agriculture, Ottawa. te
Los Angeles, Cal., Nov.
the incident of the broken alabaster
box the preacheiain this sermon .draws
lessons of the gratitude which' men
ShOuld- feel forthe self sacrifice of
mothers, sisters and wives. The text is
Mark xiV., 8, "She hath done what she
Some people are like the Dead sea
submerging the "cities of the plain."
They have no outlets. They would
make all the streams of the surround-
ing hillsides tributaries tot4-"Aeir reser-
voirs. . They would gather into their
depths the waters from the fountains
beneath and from the showers over-
head. But, though they take in every-
thing they can, they never have any
outfiowings. They would never give
anything to anybody else unless they
Wf re cofnpelled so to do. Their hands
are like _steel traps. They keep .the
palms open only as long as they have
nothing on them. But as soon as -any-
thing touches their skin their open
pellms fly shut and every' finger be-
comes a vise and every muscle as rigid
as a band of steel. Their doctrine is,
:"What is yours ought to be mine and
what is 'mine is my own." Truly they
hang on to everything they can. Their
appetites are omnivorous. But, like
great stagnant pools,- they become
stenchful through their immobility.
Their love of other people is completely
circumseribed by their love of self.
•Selfish love has even a more con-
temptible characteristic than a mere
brutal love for self. As' a rule, selfish
men consider it a personal reflection on
themselves if other people are not just
as mean and selfish as they are. When
any one makes a sacrifice for another
they give themselves to fault finding,
are always complaining and always
trying to depreciate the good which
that .persen has triedTto do. ..If a man
like Andrew Carnegie endows a libra-
ry they raise a p4otest1ng voide, and
cry, saying: "What is the good of giv-
ing a pite of books to a lot of work-
men who never read? Why does be
not give them a loaf of bread instead
of a printed page?" If a philanthrop-
ist offers to give a loaf of bread evety
midnight to every person who comes
for it they say: "What is the good of
feeding a lot of dirty tramps and dead
beats? These men ought to be made
to work as I have to work?" .Thus
wherever we turn we find sore men,
and, alai, they are marry with these
tet'o miserable characteristics. They
refuse to do anything fe --any one else,
and they find fault with -all those who
are trying to do what these selfish men
ought to do.
Some of these carping, selfish, fault -
ting critics were in the home of Si-
mon the leper in the time of Christ, as
they are in the homes of our' -modern
Dethanys. They never give a cent to
any one if they can help it, and they
hate to see any one else give away a
cent. Thus when the woman of my
text, to show her love for Christ, en-
tered the dininghall and broke an ala-
baster box and, poured the ointment
of spikenard, 'very precious, upon
Christ's head they commenced to com-
plain. "Absurd, absurd!" they cried,.
"That. ointment eauld. have been sold
for ,300 pence and given to the poor.
Why all this waste?" Then said Jesus:
"Let her alone. She. hath Wrought a
good work on Me, for ye have the poor
-with you always, and whensoever ye
will ye may do them good, but me ye
have not ahvays." Then Christ uttered
the words of my text, "She hath clone
what she could." That means to the
very best of her power she had shown
her true love for Jesus Christ.
Genuine and eignifIcant must have
been the act of this woman of my text
to have brought forth such an encomia
um from the Saviour's lips. • Dut
Jesus the only being who has had a
woman break over his head an ala-
baster box of oin:ment of spikenard
very precious? Have not some of us
been surrounded in our babyhood, in
our boyhood, in our young manhood,
In out middle age and old age, by jusli
such noble self-sacrificing women, who
have for us literally done what they
could? "Yes. yes," most of us can

A WOMAN'S BACK IS
THE MAINSPRING 'OF
HER PHYSICAL
SYSTEM The Slightest Back-- ache, if Neglected, is
Liable to Cause Years of Terrible
Suffering.
No woman can be strong and healthy
unless the kidneys are well, and regular in
their action. When the kidneys are ill,
the whole bedy is ill, for the poisons which
the kidneys ought to have filtered out of
the blood are left in the system.
• The female constitution is naturally
more subject to kidney disease than a
man's; and what ie more, a women's work -
never done -her whole life is one con-
timious strain.
How many women have you heard say:
"My, how my baeli aches ! " Do you know
that backache is one of the first signs of
kidney trouble? It is, and should be at-
tended to immediately. Other symptoms
are frequent thirst, scanty, thick, cloudy
or highly colored urine, burning sensation
when urinating, frequent urination, puff-
ing ender the eyes, swelling of the feet and
ankles, floating specks before the eyes, etc.
These symptoms if not taken in time and
eured at once, will cause years of terrible
kidney suffering. All these symptoms, and
in fact, those diseases may be cured by the
use of •

of what their wives have done for
them. Every husband, as a rule, ap-
pears to vie the representative of a !
wife whom perhaps I have never seen:!
• When Victor Hugo reached his seven- ;
tieth birthday his friends from all over I
the world sent to him gifts of flowers.
His home was simply deluged with
them. Showing one of his rooms filled
with flowers to a friend, he turned and
said: "Flowers to me have an individ-
ual flavor. They speak the peculiar
language of, the people who send them.
Now, most of the donors of these flow-
ers I have never seen, and yet from
the flowers themselves I can tell, who
my friends are. That magnificent_ lily
came from a French florist's green-
house. The friend who sent me that
must have been a well-to-do Paris%an.
This bunch Of herbs could only grow
and that blue star
und nowhere but in
s he went on, giving
answer, "we have. We have."
-would like to call to recollection sOrne
of our obligations, some of the services
that we have received from devoted
women, who would have laid down,
their lives if it had been necessary for
our welfare. They literally did all
they could to bring us to our truest
and fullest mental and physical and
spiritual •developraent.
Where shall we begin to find these
female characters, who have broken
for tis -their alabaster box of. ointment
of spikenard very precious? Naturally
we start withithat sweet face that
hovered about our cradle. When we
go back to the dim recollections of
childhood we remember that mother
was always busy. She was either
cleaning ,the parlors, or making the
beds,- or going out to market, or busy
with her needle at a big basket filled
with the week's clean washing. We
never remember her lasleep unless she
was sick in bed under the doctor's care
or unless we crawled under her covers
in the early morning when we awoke
frightened from dreaming bad dreams.
She was always busy.
Turn over the portraits in the family
album. "There," you say, "is my first
picture. Mother told rpe it was taken
just a short time after I was christen-
ed. ,She rnade that little dress with
her own hands, and she thought so
much of that dress that she kept it all
her -life. After she was dead and we
were going through her Slangs I found
it. The lace was just as you see it
there. She must have thought a good;
deal of me to put so .much work on
that dress when she had so .much to do.
And there is my picture taken 'just- af-
ter my long attack- of typhoid fever.
My, I look sick there, don't I? TheY
tell,me she never left my room for six
long weets. The doctors gave me up,
but she never did. They say 1 *kid
have died but for her. And further -
More they say that it was her devotion
to me that broke down her health, and
made her a lifelong invalid." ,
-Then you eurft over another page ol
the old ,albuint and you say; "Here is
my picture when I was a college boy.
We were having a hard time financial -
Ye and. I used to get awfully disco.ur-'
ged but -Smother; was my support.
SFIhe used to write and kg-ep on writing

how black the clouds were. And when
I think of her now I can say that a
nobler, purer, better or more self-sacri-
ficing woman than she never lived. All
that I am is the result of her sacrifices
made in the crises of my early life."
"Oh," you say, "I had a good mother.
She certainly did for me what ishe

the history of the different baskets and

thee characters of his unseen friends
by the languageeof the flowers, I -read
the characters of wives by the conduct
of their husbands.
Inevitably when you find a consecrat-
ed, earnest man working. for Christ in
the church you will find a noble, de-
voted wife back of that man,- who is
chiefly responsible for that man's con-
secration. Of course there are excep-
tions to all rules, but exceptions do
not destroy the ,rules. So invariable
has been my experience in this respect
that when I find a man joining the
chui-ch whose wife thinks more of card
parties and dances and club meetings
and dinners than she does of her pray-
er meetings I have but little hope of
that man being an active �r spiritual
church member. I have known many
women to stay in the church as faith-
ful, loyal workers in spite of godless
husbands, but I have in only two or
three instances known a husband to be
true to his church vows if he has an
indifferent or a godless wife. My bro-

ers the human beings who have lied
the most to do with our religious' con-
duct have been our godly, consecrated,
Christian wives.
Our wives have broken their alabas-
ter box of ointment of spikenard)`, very
precious upon our family altars,i and
made us what we are spiritually.;; But
have- they n.ot done more thanthat?
(ten, yes. They have literally sactlificed
-their all for us and submergedt their
lives in our life. When. Benjamin Dis-
raeli retired front the nninistenial
bench Queen Victoria wished to ele-
vate her favorite Prime Minister to the
peerage. He declined at that time the
honor for himself, but he practically
said this, "Your Majesty, the honor
you would confer upon me would grat-
ify me more if conferred on my wife,
for all that I have been able to accom-
plish in English statesmanship is due
to her devotion and self-sacrifice." So
for the time he remained plain Mr.
Disraeli; while his wife became Count-
ess Of Beaconsfield:- Not until some
years later did he accept the honor
urged upon him and take the title of
Earl of Beaconsfield.
And here let me state something
which has been on my mind for a long
time. I have been noticing how tired
your -wife looks of late. Aye, she is
beginning to- get that tired look your
mother had during her last few years.
You have 'often said to your brothers
and sisters since your mother's death.
"OW, ifefather had only made her hold
up a little she would have been with
us nowt" Yes, perhaps she would.
Your Mother was one of those "willing
• horses" who work themselves to -death.
Your wife is the. same kind of a wo-
man. Her- alabaster box of ointment
of spikenard very precious which she is
now pouring upon you is her life's
blood. You had .better make her held
up or your children may soon be,saying
about their mother's premature, death
Your absence all but ill endure,
And one so ill as Thomas More.
As he grew older and came to great
fame he still seemed to feel that he
could not do anything unlesS he had
• first gone and told her and asked her
advice. He wrote every detail of his
life to her. wrote to her almost
every day of the week. At her death
there were found over 4,000 letters
penned to her by her noble son. And
one of the last acts whieh he did be-
• fore she died was to send one of his
• books to her with these beautiful
words written noon the flyleaf: ''For

good way let us_ be willing to let an-
other step in and share that love, as
the motheas of our wives were willing
that their daughters should give us
their love. Ah, yes, we have had good
mothers, good wives, good sisters and,
thank God, good daughters.
But I cannot close without mention-
ing one °tier bearer of the alabaster
box who has 'come- into your life. She
may have been an aunt or a grand-
mother or, asit was with me, a dear.
affectionate Christian woman about
sixty years of age. In all probability
she came to you in a crisis. You may
have gone to her for !sympathy; you
may have gene to her for spiritual or
material help, and she never failed you.
Cannot you see her now? -I can. I
can remember' sjust how she looked
when I first met her. She was the
saint at my Chicago church. She wan
one who always lived to clo good.
When sickness came into our home she
was always there. Our babies were
her babies, our troubles were her trou-
bles, our joys were her joys. It was a
dark, stormy day, the Good Friday be-
fore Easter 'of 1902. that I last saw
her. I haa been east visiting my sick
father. She cainct clown to welcome me
home. She Nras always. thinking at -
others, never about herself. It was a
biting, tempestuous day,and she
caught cold. Pneumonia sta-bbed her
lungs. In one week she -was dead, and
in two weeks my father was dead. It
seemed as though the sorrow of our
home was too great to bear. And yet
to -day, as the memories of those pa-
tient, loving Christian women arise be-
fore us, where do they lead us? Where
are they pleading for us to go? They
have -given to US the best tiege- have.
Have they not done all this to lead us
to that place where we may at last
meet and where we shall never part
again?
Son, husband, brother, father, friend,
thy loved ones are breaking their ala-
baster boxes of ointment of spikenard
very precious over you in the preeence
of Jesus, their King. Will you not look
up and greet their Saviour as your
master 2_ Heaven will never be a per-
fect heaven to them unless they shall
`meet you there. Will you let their sac-
rifices lead -you to Christ, that itt his
presence you, may dwell with them for -
even? Aye,. their alabaster boxes of
ointment of spikenard very precious
would not be too'costly if by that sac-
rifice they could win your iinmortal
souls for eternal companionship in
heaven. !Truly they have done for us
all they -could. to bring about that glor-
ious consummation.

The
Pandora
Reservoir
The Pandora is the
onlyrrange with a reser-
voir stamped in one
single piece of steel and enamelled. It is the only
reservoir without seams, rivets or places to catch
dirt. It has no sharp angles. All angles are made
with rounding curves, and the whole reservoir is
beautifully enatnelled.
McClary's are the only range makers in Canada
with a plant for making enamelled steel reservoirs,
and that is why the Pandora is the only range that
has a one-piece reservoir.
