IV. Topic: Jesus teething bine to
pray, Place: In Perste When: Jesto
had. ceased praying in a certain place
one of hie diseiples asked him to teenh
tbem to pray; Jesus gave them a form
of prayer; the parable of the inmortun-
ate borrower, teaching the importance
of importunity; the disciples told. to osk,
seek, kneek; a father does not give a
son a stone for bread .or a serpent for a
fish; how much anore will God give the
Holy Spirit to them that ask?
V. Topic: The believer's social duties.
Place: In Perea, At the house of a
eldef Pharisee; Jesue sees. a. man with
the elropsy; it is the Sabbath. day; Jents
asked them whether it was lawful to
heal the alien on theft day; they refined
to answer; Jesus healed the inaa; he
then asked them H they would not take
an auirnal out of a pit on the Sabbath
day; a man is better than a sheep;
when: bidden to a feast take the lowest
place; call the poor and not the rich
vein -Moore.
VI. Topic: Blessings and conditions of
salvation. Place: In Perses.. Jesus is still
at the Pharisee's house; one at the table
though it would be a great privilege to
sit at a banquet in the Messiah's king-
dom; Jesus spoke a parable to show
that although the blessings of the gos-
pel would be offered them, yet they
would refuse the invitation; excuses
were made; the invitation was pressed;

ing the Gentiles, were invited; those or-
iginally invited were rejected.

itance; went into a. far country and

LX. Topic: Great faets connected with
salvation. Place: In Persea, A rich young
ruler came running to Jesus and asked
what he must do to inherit eternal life;
Jesus said, Keep the commandments. He
asked, Which? Jesus mentioned several;
the young man had kept these; he ask-
ed what he still lacked; sell what you
have and give to the poor; went away
sorrowful; the rich are saved with great
difficulty, but, difficult as it is, they
may be saved if they will do what Christ
asked this young man to do; no one
need expect to gain eternal life unless he
is willing to turn himself, with all his
possessions, over to Christ; God bas no
favorites,. those who follow Christ will
be rewarded.

most, it may be, when we are uncoil-

V. "Power" to teach bumility. "Ile

(Luke xiv. 1). "Hamility is the root of
all aspiratiou. Pride looks down; asp?.
ation looks up. Pride sees something
below it; aspiration aomething above it.
Pride stands at the topof the hill,
aspiration lies in the depth of the valley.

VL "Power" to entertain the out-
casth. "ehr out ante the highways and
hedges, and compel them to cone iat"
(Luke ley. V). D. M. Stearns gtvel an
illustretion of this in vonnection with
the opening of a mission hall whieh the
Lord gave :him motley 'to boil& It was
for the lost and. the outcast from all so-
cieity. There was a nice tea, with an
abundance of good things for about one
hundred people. Free tickets had been
given to one hundred woolen of the
street. and they bad ;won:lined to come,
but when the hour arrived and ail things
were ready, not .one appeared. Then he
made a tour of the houses and saloons,
and by loving entreaty obtained emus; a
second tour obtained some men, and, a
third visit some children, and the tables
were filled.
VII. "Power" to restore the backslider.
"Return unto me, and I will return meth,
you, smith the Lord" (Mai. 111. 7). "His
raither...ren" (Luke xv. 20).
VIII. "Power" to justify the sinner.
"God be merciful to me a sinner" (Luke
:viii. 13).
IX. "Power" to save the rich, "Who
then can be saved?" "With God all
thine are possible" (Mark x, 26, 27).
Things impossible to nature are possible
to grace. Only God can incline the nat-
ural heart to forsake all.
X. "Power" to make restitution. When
Zacohatus accepted Jesus as his elm -
slab, at once he declared, "If 1 &aye
taken anything from any man...I re-
store dem fourfold" (Luke xix. 8). Res-
titution is a proof of oonviction and re-
areneratiou.
XI. "Power" to reign-. "Hosanna to
the Son of David." (Matt. xxi. 9). These
panne:nth flung- down 1 or a royal road-
way, these waving palms of victory,
these shouts encl songs of trim -gee 'were
e foretaste of the time when a. vasty.
countkete multitude of redeemed.. ones
and thou.sands of angels would cay,
'Worthy is the Lamb that Was slain to
receive power, and Tithes, and wisdoms
and strength, and honor, and glory, end
bleseing" (Rev. v. 12).
XII. "Power" to anake you loyal.
"Render unto Caesar the things that are
Ceeetr's, and unto God the things that
are God's" (Mark xii. 17). Mr. Labott-
there :received thirty-five thousand
pounds from the Eastern Counties Rail -
wan for a passage through his estate
nearChebneford, England. Soon after
he died. The son and successor of Mr.
Debt:nth:ere diseoverea that the property
was *much less deterionned than haat
been expected, and voluntaxily returned
to the company fifteen thousand pounds.
?CIV. "Power" to save front strong
drank. "Wine is a mocker" (Prov. xx.
1). This story is told of a Scotch
HigIblander erho had become an earnest
abstainer. The Queen- Mut. purchased
someofhis wares, and had given elan
permission to Wear the royal aems, as
"the Queens pedlaa.." On one occasion
the Earl of Carlisle offered him a glass
of wine in will& he was to drink the
Queen's heeetle Donald bravely saki: "I
cannot drink the Queen's health in -wine,
but I will drink it in water." .A. 0. M.

Ottawa, Sept. 9. - The Australian

upon by Mr. D. IL Ross, Canadian com-
mercial agent, in a report received to-
day at the Trade and Commerce De-

account of premature and unauthorized
disclosures, the Government hastily de-
termined to immediately increase the
duties from 73 to 123 per cent. above
the rates hitherto ruling upon nearly
every leading line of agricultural imple-
ments and machinery. In some. instances
minor lines hitherto free have been made
dutiable at from 20 to 25 per sent. These
duties -were at once enforced, but may
be modified, es they must necessarily
be confirmed by narliament. The re-
port of the Tariff Commissioner is com-
pleted, but beyond implements the only
changes whieh have been made in the
tariff are connected with the customs
and excise duties epon wines and spirits.
The duty upon spirits has been increased
from 14s to 15s ($3.40 to $3.65) per gal-
lon. The net amount of duty payable,
Mr. Ross says, is more than is superfici-
ally expressed.for the reason that 10 per
cent. is added to the invoice value of the
goods before the duty is computed there-
on. Thus a duty of 20 per cent. works
out at 22 per cent. net, and a duty of 25
per cent. actually means 27% per cent.
S-ome :of the principal tariff changes
are as follows: Stripper harvesters,
stump jump blotvs, disc and tivinnow
strippers, formerly 12%, now 25 per cent.
Other kinds of plows, plowshares, har-
rows, chaff cutters, and castings for all
kinds of agricultural implements, former
duty 123, now 20 per cent. Combined
corn-shellers and. huskers will now
pay a duty of 25 per cent. Ordinary corn
shelters and corn -huskers aud plow
mould -boards, hitherto free, will mty 20
per cent,
Certain classes or rakes and plows
combined, potato sorters, raisers of
diggers will remain the free list.
On the machinery upon which duty is
to be paid 10 per eent. will be added
to the invoice value of the goods be-
fore the duty is paid. Thus a 20 per
cent. duty will figure out at 22 and a
25 per cent. duty at 27%. Canada has
hitherto supplied the bulk of the agri-
cultural implements and machinery im-
ported into Australia.
How Toronto Finn Views It.
Confirmation of the statement that the
duty on harvesters bas been placed at
£12 by the Australian Commonwealth
comes in a Canadian Associated Press
eespatelt from London, which says:
"The Times has a Melbourne cable stat-
ing that the Federal House of Represen-
tatives placed a duty of 212 on harvest-
ers, and on strippers 46."
Toronto has an interest in this action
of the Australian rani:urea, as there
is a large export trade in agricultural
implements from .that city to tbe Island
continent. The Massey -Harris Company
have for -years done an extensive buse
war and the scene of the cheerio of the

GOADED INTO MADNESS
WHY A C. le. R. LABORER TRIED TO
KILL FOREMAN.
Had Been Made a Target for Ridicule
and in Return Stabbed His Tor-
mentor Nine Times in Head and
Arms.
Vancouver, B.C., Sept. 10. -Goaded to
madness by continual teasing, Wm. Mc-
Laren, section worker on the Canadian
Pacific near Ashcroft, attempted to limn
der Foreman Albert Dow a day or two
ago by stabbing hint nine times with a
pocket-knife.
McLaren is a simple sort of fellow,
and Dow had made. him the subject of
many practical jokes. itieLanan is not as
well equipped mentally as Ms tormentor,
and the unhappy laborer brooded over
his humiliation and misery. When he
saw Dow asleep in bed he threw himself
upon the joker, and before the latter
was thoroughly awake nine gashes had
been inflicted. One stab in the temple
came dangerously near the right eye, and
Dow lias four other gashes on his head.
The rest were in the arms. After he bad
inflicted the wounds the would-be mur-
doter fled to the hile, but was easily
captured. He has been conunitted for
trial.
