PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS.
Golden Text. "But these are written
that ye might believe that Jesus is the
Christ, the Son of God, and that believ:
ing ye might have life through his
name (John 20:31). Let the word "life"
be the keynote for the review.
I. Life given for life. `I am the good
'shepherd; the good shepherd .giveth his
life for the sheep" (John 10:11). -Ile
gives his life a ransom for many (Matt.
20:28). The shepherd dies. that his
Sheep may live (John 15:13). A man
of God halted at the door of a log house
in a clearing, and said to the woman
who answered his call, "Have 3.int men
anything of a lost lamb about. here?"
"No, sir," was the reply. "Are you sure
yea have seen no lost lamb ab.otit
here?". She said. she had seen nerie.
"Are you certain there is no lost lamb
here?" he inquired the third time, in
tones so full of meaning that they
touched her heart, and lei her to eonfess
with tears that she was the lost lamb
for whom the good Shepherd even then
. was seeking. There are many lost
lambs.
II. Resurrection and life. "Jesus said
Unto her, I am the resurrection and the
life" (John 11, 25). It was not a ques-
tion of time. He eoula as easily raise
Lazarus that day as the last day, for
He, the resurreetion, the power, to im-
part, maintain, and restore life was
there. He would teach Martha that the
resurrection was not an impersonal fate
to take place in the futures but a Per-
sonal effect proceeding front himself;
not a distant resurrection:time, but a
present resurrection -power.
III. Life and service. "S'he liath done
what she could" (Mark 14, 8). God will
use what you have if vou lovingly do
your part.
1V. Life and love. "By love serve one
another" (Gal. 5, 13), Human love can-
not attain to all this. We tenet obtain
divine love. We must "abide in His love'.
(John 15, 10).
V. Life. and heaven. "In iny Father's
house are many mansions" (John 14, 2).
Faith in Christ here leads to life with
Christ hereafter.
VI. Life by the Spirit. When Jesus
went to the Father He sent the Com-
forter, the Holy Spirit, to give life
the 'world.
VIL Life and power. "As soon then
AS He had said unto Mein, 1 ere Ite, they
went baekward, and fell to the ground"
(John 18, 6). The soldiers felt backward;
jests deinanded protection for His dis-
ciples; the servant's ear ;Was healed, all
of which show 8 Ms supernittairal power,
VIM Life through death. "Christ
died for our sins according to the &tip -
tures" (I. Cor. 15, 3), Ile teok the plow
of the forsaken, that we might take the
place of the iteeepted mph. 1, 0).
IX. Life after death. "But now is
Christ risen from the dead„ ami keine*
the fitst fruits of them that slept" (I.
Cot. 15, 20). A little girl stood with her
mother besidethe open grave of a dar-
ling -sitter. Her mother /said, "Take one
more lookony ehild, this ie the last look
you may have of your eister." But the
child thought beyond the tomb, and re-
lied, "Olt, Mitreina, We Shall see her in
the resurrection," What a balm that
was, in that hour of aevere anguieh, it
wile better to think of that part, thau
srieve over the separation on earth.
X. Life imparted through Christ, 'But
these are written, that ye might believe
that Jesus la the Christ, the ton af Uod;
and that, believing, ye might have life
through Hits name" (siolut 20, 31).
XL J„ife and service. Peter was for-
given and then given it great work to dot
"Filed iny lambs." "Feed my sileep.'

Promptly at midnight the gates of

4 brick displaced, nor were there any
marks of erosion. Everything was as
trim as the day the tunnel was coni-
pleted.
All the time the inspeeltion of the cat:,
eruct and the tunnel was under way
the engineers of the International
Railway Company ise aurae of Thomas
Pomfrey were hard. at work investige
ing the condition of the North Ameri-
can shore abutments of the upper
steel amh bridge.
They foundi the abutments in a much
better state than was thought, The
trouble has not so much been that the
masonry has been waehed away, but that
the foundation on which the protecting
wall rested has been undermined by the
current.
The international engineers professed
to believe that another and sufficieut
wall might be built te hold the wear -
off, but no -decision was reached,
CHATHAM LADY SMUGGLERS.
„Twenty Notified They Must Repay Price
of Articles Smuggled.
Chatham, Ona, June 14. -About twen-
ty Chatham ladies, including sonic of th•e
city's leading society women, have been
notified by the Customs Department
that they have been discovered smug-
gling from Detroit, and they will now
either have to repay the price of the
articles amuggled, plus the duty, or re-
turn the goods, 'else they Will be forced
to suffer the consequenees.
The affair has caused quite a sen-
sation in this city, and it is understood
that many others, who have not receiv-
ed notice, are shaking hi their smuggled
boots, for fear the blow may fail on
them next.
It is understood that the merchants
of the city have upon many occa-
sions objected strongly to the leniency
shown by the Castonis officers. For the
past few weeks spotters have been at
work in. Detroit, under the. pay of the
.Chathara officials. They carefully wait-
ed for the bargain-huntdis from Chat-
ham, and followed them around through
the different stores, gathering evidence.
ibe articles smuggled were chiefly
wearing apparel, although in some
eases articles were brought over
wilt& would cause any ordinary Man
to wonder how they could be concealed.

it week ago. Continued good weather
and favorable crop 'reports have im-
proved the feeling and, to some ex-
tent,. broadened the scope of business
moving. :Buying for present use is
still along conservative lines, but

prevenient bas been particularly not-
iceable in the drygoods trade. In fall

BULLETIN

The followleg information regarding
agricultural conditions in the Province
about the middle of May has been is-
sued by the Ontario Department of Ag-
riculture;
Fall Wheat -While • correspondents
are not nearly tmanimous, the general
tenor of reports regarding fall wheat is
favorable, In most cases the crop en-
tered the winterset little short en top,
but snow fell early, and lay on the
ground. nearly all the season, thus af-
fording good protection, except on
knolls where the young plants were ex-
posed, and in sone of the fence corners,
where the crop was smothered. Early
sown wheat did better than that put lit
later, and the crop did best on rolling
IftmL
Winter Rye -This crop wintered even
better than hill wheat, but it is not
largely grown for grain, being raised
chiefly for pasture, .green feed, and for
turning under for manure.
Clover -Correspondents aro muck di-
vided in their opinions regarding the con-
dition and prospects of the clover crop,
descriptions ranging from "excellent" to
"pooe."
Live Stock -It is the general opinion
that the average condition of live•stock
is much better than was expected, and
the providene handlieg of fodder sup-
plies has shown that Ontario farmers as
a class are 101 capable of meeting such
alt emergenef No disease of an epi-
dentie nature has been reported amongst
live stock. Horses are described as being
rather thin, but they IWO in fair Work-
ing condition.
Supplies -Hay was so scarce and dear
last fall that much anxiety was felt by
many its to whether they could pull
along 111411.'6e new growth was. avail-
able. Some farmers were forced to buy
hay, but the bulk of those owning live
stock, by careful feeding, came through
the winter without having to resort to
purchasing, and a number of persons
who were holding surpIns hay over for
famine priceiare now willing to, sell at
.from $4 to $6 a ton less than was offer-
ed for it in tlie fall. ()ate have not been
so scarce. and high in price for years, al-
though here and there it few farmers re-
port a fair supply on band. Most of the
wheat has been sold, and the sepply in
the barns is much less than is usual at
this time of the year, More farmers
than ever are buying flour, and are feed-
ing or selling all their wheat.
Fruit Trees -Orchards have come
through the winter in good condition,
having suffered less than usual from se -
ram cold, ie °storms, etc. The San Jose
scale and the oyrster-shelA, bark louse are
reported at various points, but the
spraying campaign is being more vigor-
ously entered upon than ever, and more
attention generally is now being paid to
orchard trees. Fruit. bade promise a
good yield should rain hold up during
the petiod of bloom. In short, the spring
outlook was never better for Ontario
fruit.
Spring Seeding -In the Lake Erie dis-
trict seeding was almost 'completed by
the middle of May, and in some of the
other western counties work was also
well advanced, although hindered some-
what by rain. In the eastern half of the
Province, more particularly in the St.
Lawrence and Ottawa counties, heavy
rains have kept farmersoff the land, ex-
cept in most favorably situated places,
and meek sprieg sowing remained to be
done.
