purpose "according to Olectioa" had
ordalued that "the elder sball serve
Ilia younger." The designed end
woad have been attained without the
unworthy and perplexing anethods
adopted by the chief actors. That it
was secured through deception, places
no seal of approval upon either the
net dr the actors. Jacob was a de-
.stined man, and had prophetic fore -
gleams of hls appointed destiny. Ws
wrong wasin taking it prematurely
lute his own hands, thus forestalling
not divine purposes, but methods.
Godet times are always opportune, and
God's ways are always best. The 4p.
pointed leour on the dial of eternal
purer:tees is always the fittest. "When
the fulness ottime was come." Earlier
would be premature. Later would be
delay.. It es always true that one die -
honorable act necessitates additional
intrigue to secure and maintani its
ends. No perfidy over stood alone.
Jacob's cupidity in securing the birth-
right paved the way for the dishon-
orable deception to secure the patri-
archal benediction ;accompanying and
assuring it. Faith bides God's time
•and awaltsehis workings. Contasion
and 'destruction always follow at -
amens to hasten divine purposes.
"God's' plans like lilies pure and
white unfold,
We must not tear the close -shut
- • leaves apart;
Time will reveal the calyxes of gold."
God has a path to Avery purpose,
and rigliteousiless never needs subter-
fuges. God is often limited to the
means- at hand, and could not set
aside the predetermined purpose be•
cause the immediate instrument was
not ideal. eReprehensible as Were
some elements of Jacob's character
and medusa, he was altogether the
fitter 'instrument In preserving, the
Family destiny:
II. Its results. Emerson says
"Puhiehment is a frnit teat, unsus-
pected; rfpens within the flower of the
Pleasure whin concealed it." It. In-
volves itself in tho unfoldings of
wrens, No truer thing was ever writ- ,
tett than, "The way of the transgres-
sor is hard;" not at the entrance but
at the end. Even moral pardon does
not remove the effects of 'transgres-
sion. 'There is an important sense in
whieh there is no forgiveness. 1.
Personal discomfort and dishonor.
"Deceit is • the false road to happi-
ness." There are always two ele-
ments of discomfort; a sense of dis-
honor andreproof inseparable from
moral conseinasness, and the fear of
detection, with impending results.
Both aombined In Jacob's experience.
Chara,cfer and conduet are both inex.
cuhable. 'Potting is elways insecure
In the path of 'deception. "He that
walketh •uprightly walketh surely."
2. Divine disapproval. The success^
of an uneverthy plan does not express
epprobation; heither'does it turn aside
a predetermined purpose. A con-
soioustess or wrong invariably be-
clouds the heavens, Eden grew -dank
before the sentence of expulsion was
pronounced.' 3. Entangled circum-
stances'. "0 'what a tanglo. welcome
weaSe; when first We enact's° to de-
ceive." Jacob became a fugitive, and
many years elapsed before he return-
ed to the home lead. Rebekah, part -
ted from her favorite son, never look-
ed upon him again, The safe place
for a human life Is Ili the will of God.

FOUR ARMIES TOOK PART.
(By Percival Phillips.)
With the British Armies in the
-Field, Gable. ----American forces in
co-operatton with the 1.3dtish,• lorench
and Belgians suecessfully attacked the
enemy along a wide front in Belgian
Flauders yesterday and drove hint
back for an average distance of about
three mlles, tie a result ot this opera-
tion the aided armies took hold ot all
the highground between the Lys and
Valenciennes and have driven their
line closer to the Scheldt everywhere
in this area, where it did not already
reach ihis stream.
The allied attack was aimed at
driving the enemy oft the high grOund
betwet,n Courtrai and Audenarde and
In the direction of the latter town.
American, French and Belgian troaps
operated on the Brinell left wing.
The attack by the alllee 'succeeded ad-
mIrably, and as a resit" of' It our front
line has react:ode all the villages that
;aye aimed at. in spite of the enemy
troops, who had been told that If they
gave way before our attack their
chances of an armistice' would dimin-
ish. This incited them to fight well
wite machine-guns and trench mole
tare.
Prisoner::: whole we took geld Aus-
tria's eleas for a separate peace were
• knowu to the forward garrison in the
Audenarde raeloh. and had depreseed
them gecatly. • They declared that
tece enemy ttoops there now are fight-
ing- not tc win a battle, but to gain
a truce.
GASSED MANY VILLAGES.
The British Second Army, which
held the line of the Scheldt as far
aorta. as Avalghen and thence bent
northward toward Anseghen and
Cycke, simply threw the latter portion
of Its nue forces forward through
the villageof Tieghems and Elseg-
hem toward the river bank. They
„had a distance of about two and a half
anilea to go in some places, add had
to pass well defended machine gun
poets. which were strung out betweep
tho villages.
The French moved in the general
direction of Amlenarde. The German
ertillery, anticipating the success of
this attack, began to move back Wed-
nesday •night from positions in frcent
of Audenarde. The enemy's main bat-
tery groups sought shelter in tracts
of wooded. country around Renalx,
south of the river. They gassed -many
villages in the Franco -British forward
area. And many civilians --mostly wo-
men and small children -now are in
hospitals in a serious condition. The
German guns moved back toe quick-
ly to be overtaken by our infantry or
tanks which supported the .allied ad-
vance in certain places, but we cap-
tured many prisoners.
Enemy trench mortars and batter-.
les held out to eas the last man, and
one group of tbom was not overcome
until our tanks -charged it.
Viewed in whole or locally the oper-
ation was most successful, and Wre
have improved cur positions mater-
ially, •
Reuter's corrhspondent at the front
telegraphs:
"As the result of the operatjons of
General Plumer army in conjunction
with the Belgian forces, there has been
a great extension of the allied front
northward e along the Scheldt River.
The cbstinately defended tolvn of
Towne' Is beglening to figure as the
apex of a largo salient. "The British
troope rapidly atalned their first ob-
jectives. As e. rule, the enemy fought
stubborelse but not desperately, and
was not long in surrendering'Mien in
a tight corner. :Light tanks did in-
valuable work in dealing with camou-
flaged maehinc-gun nest. So quickly
did tho attack go in some plates that
the enetny's motor ronbulances and
mechanical transports were captured
before they could be cranked up.
"The Britisbi aro fighting typical

developing into a series of local com-

For Making
Jelly Jell'

--Wm; is needed to make jelly jell is
"pectin," a compound of carbon, oxy-
gen and hydrogen, the exact nature of
which is a, puzzle to the chemists.
Some fruits abound in pectin; others
lack thie gelatinous or coagulative
quality which turns aot sugary juices
into semi-solid consistency*. A evly
who is a debater in Cie ar,t of jelly -
making writes about it as follows.
Every year enough temon peels,
along with apple parings and Pores,
pre coneigned to the garbage pail,
which, it properly utilized, would yield
pectin enough to alleviate tee jelly
woes of thousands of eats:lei-ye: who
are continually failing tv make ;heir
jellies "jell."

If you do not care to make the Est-
tad•pectin, save tee white inner skins
of both your oranges and lemons by
. grinding them up and -drying them.
Later these may be soaked up and
ueed when needed. •
Cull lunene and oranges may be
cut in very thin slices an 1 dried for
the extraction of pectin ween needed
While the white seat of grapetant
Is rich in pectin, it ebonld tilt be
used, because it imparts a bitter fla-
vor to jelly. Lemon and oran..ee pec-
tin has scarcely any effect on the
flavor of the juices they are added lo
Apple pectin may be preparal by
