work, the nature of the gospel as a re.
velatiou; the contente of the gospel as
an instrument of redemption." The
words of Christ were the concentration
ena embodiment of bis own life, just as
truly us the geed is the concentration
told embodiment of the life of the plant.
The goepel is a direct unveiling of
truth. It is a revelation of Goa in
Christ. The word of Clod is truth in its
seed form. A seed le a wonderful thing,.
There is life, force aria the power of
propagation in it. Without the word of
Ood. there can he no spiritual life, The
Rowing of the seed must ever be the'
first process toward a hegher state of
flange. Jesus aid not require full de.
veloement of Chrietiart character at
once, but be did teach that if there wile
to Olive any real religious life at all,
it Twist carry on simultaneously two
proceeeee. It must strike downward
end bear fruit upward. In the first
class described, we find the wayside
hearers whose minds were thorough -
fres for all sorts of thought. They
were heedless,hearing without attend-
ing to truth, despising and uudervaluing
the. way of life. The. stony.ground
hearers were the light minded and care-
less, wittem life centreremained un-
changed. and where no principle of reli-
gion wee fixed in the heart These were
intereeted but not converted, charmed
but not phanged. The thorny -ground
hearers had the mind choked with alien
interests and pursuits. It will make no
difference at the great harvest day,
whether tbe failure of the crop be ow-
ing to endue ease or excessive pleasures.
Everything that binders the reception
and supremacy of the truth becomes a
thorn to pierce and choke. The good
-
soil hearers are the attentive and ee.
tentive. Theirs is effectual hearing.
They bear, they receive and bring forth
fruit. Spiritual wealth is realized
where there is a solid basis to begin
upon.
H. Applied to all who hear the gos-
pel. It was not for one age only, but
for all time that Christ spoke in para.
bles. His pasables have been called,
"The salt of Christianity to preserve it
from corruption and extinction." Jesus
chose that form of teaching which
brought bis hearers lace to face with
nature and human life, because in ut-
ters of religion, thoee whom he had to
touch had departed far from truth and
were following the traditions of men.
He turned their minds in the direction
in which they could soonest lorreet and
overcome their errors, and be prepared
to receive his truth. A. parable became
light or darkness to them according to
their spiritual attitude. 'Inie parable
of thc, sower is a solemn lesson and
warning and also a, description of what
is actually taking place in the world.
As Jesus at the seashore surveyed the
vast company before him, he uttered
this parable as a prophecy of the future
of his truth among men. Jesus called
upon his diseiples to take heed to the
truth aud to the prospect which streteh-
ed out before them as his ministers,
through whom he would sow the seed of
the gospel among men. While they
stood in the place of great privilege,
they were also under great responsibil-
ity. -T. IL A.

ed when 110 spoke, Doit'ibtlese many had

rences, used to teach spiritual truth,
H. The parable of the sower (ve. 3-9),
3. Hearken -Udell. Jesus at the out-
set bunted the close attention of His
hearers. Behold -The opening of the
parable IS vivid and it is more than pro-
ibable that one or more sowers were ac-
tually scattering seed within sight of
the hearers, for the region on either
side was rich Ai adapted to agricul-
ture, and it was the season for sowing,
which commenced in Oetober. There
went out a Rawer to SOW- He was pro-
vided with seed and went forth with a
definite purpose. He went where there
was soil prepared to receive the sed.
The soil of Paleetine wars prepared for
mewing by being stirred to a depth of
four inches. The people lived in villages
• and literally "went forth" to their fields
in the country. The sower represents
the Saviour, who came to teach the
the truths of the kingdom, and the apos-
tles, who were taught by him, and all
anent, who as public or private work-
ers scatter the blessed truths of Christ's
kingdom, 4. Way ide-he Palestine the
pain fields are not often fenced, and
there are troddenr pane extending here
and there through the grain. The seed
falling upon these males would be es-
pecially exposed to the attacks of birds,
which abound in that country. 5. Stony
ground -Ground of this sort was doubt.
less in plain sight of Jesus and His
hearers. It was not a soil mingled with
stones, but consisted. of a slight depth
of soil covering an extended layer of
rock. It sprang up -The thin layer of
soil would be thoroughly warmed by the
sure and the seed would quickly germin-
ate.
7. Thorns -Thorne, briers and other
prickly plants thrive in Palestine and
indicate a fertile soil. There are twenty-
two words in the Hebrew. Bible that de-
note thorny or prickly plants. The far-
mer is accustomed. to go through his
wheat fields before these noxious plants
ripen to cut them out. If this is not
done the land becomes overrun with
these peels. Choked it -The thorns were
o thrifty that they grew more rapidly
than the grain, robbing the latter of
he moisture and subetance of the soil.
The soil was good and favorable to an
abundant harvest of grain, but for the
fact that it was preoccupied by seeds
of thorns.$. Good ground -The soil was
deep, free from weeds and had. been pro-
perly prepared.
Hi. The explanation (vs. 10-20). 10.
They., .asked of him the parable -The
inquirers were not alley the 'twelve dis-
ciples, but those who were deeply im-
pressed with the words of Jesus and de-
sired to know the truth more fully.
"Parables," -R, V. The series of par-
ables here given sets forth different
truths of the kingdom. 11. Unto you
it, is given to know -Those who were
asking for further knowledge were pre-
pared to receive a revelation of the spir-
itual nature of Christ's kingdom. That
are without -Those who had but a. pass-
ing interest or no interest at all in
Christ's teachings. Are done in par-
ables -A Taxable will make truth clear-
er to one who desires the truth, but to
one -who is not interested in spiritual
mattere the parable sten& as a veil to
cover the truth the 'Arable is designed
to teach. 12. Seeing...not perceive -
See Isa. 6:9. 10. Christ desired that all
who heard his preaching should receive
the truth, but the parable was a test
of their sincerity and earnestness. Those
who refused to see would remain in epir-
itual darkness, Lest. -they should be
eonverted-They refuse to see and hear
lest they should be converted. 13. How
then will ye know all parable -The par-
able of the tower stands at the head of
the series, and is in a sellSe the foun-
dation of the truths presented in the
diecouree.
14. The sower -This is applicable to
Christ and to all his followers who
teach the truths of the gospel in sin-
cerity, 15. Satan-taketh away -The
heart of the wayside hearer is hard
and not readily suseptible to the truth,
and. Satan through his numberless egen-
dies snatches away the good seed before
it settles into the soil of the heart, 10.
Receive it with gladness. -The stony -
ground hearers go farther than the first
elves; they not only hear, but believe,
and receive the truth, end the seed

a profeseion of religion. The truths of
the gospel are attraetive. They appeal

Montreal, Jelly 7.-A eoneiderable sen-
sation has been caused in Roman Cathol-
ic circles in the Archdiocese of Montreal
by the reading to -day in all the Catholic
.ehurehes of a mandement from Archbish-
op Bruchesi tormally suppressing the
College of 'qt. Marie de Monnoir at St.
John's, Que. In his mandement his
Grace states that the long t dispute over
the college has been a painful scandal
in the church, and to end thie Mgr. Bru.
chesi formally forbids the fathers in
charge of the college to ever reopen at
St. John's, rote also forbids the faithful
sending their children there. Should the
college, in spite of this prohibition, try
to continue, should any parente ,4enet
their ehildren to the institution, it le de-
clared they shall be guilty of a grievous
sin, Aztec the orders of Rome must be
respected.
In concluding his mandement Archhish
op Bruehesi says the scandal has bitted
too long, and that he cannot believe the
professors of the college would Inger
continue to disregard the orders of the
Holy See, and that they woulcl cease
teaching where the Holy Father had for-
bidden them to tach,
The strong stand now taken by Arch-
bishop Brucheei will likely kill ,he con
lege, but at the earne time end. the scan-
dal, even though at the expense of Oa -
cation

VETERANS' GRANT
The Government's Grant
May be Withdrawn.
NEWS OF THE
Ottawa, Ont., July 8. -The hundred
dollars for each of the Fenian Raid vet-
erans is to be a joy deferred. There is
no 'money. The Government put through
a bill last session, but failed to ask
Parliament to vote the money. There
are now forty thousand applications,
and if these were granted ten expendi-
ture of four iitmareu thousand dollars
would be required . It is found that
there is no authority to make a Clover -
nor -General's warrant to cover such an
expenditure. Therefore, there can be no
distribution until Parliament meets and
votes the money. If the veterans in-
crease at the present rate, the Govern-
ment my change its mind and not
make any grant at all.

That the Grand Trunk Railway in-

evidenced yesterday, when Viee-President

through Toronto in their private care
for western points on the railroad.
The two officials had just finished a
tour of inspeetion with Preeident E,

cago and Winnipeg.. On the return of
the party the president announced that
it general policy of improvement would
be commenced imenediately in regard. to
the road's terminale west a Toronto to
Chicago.
It was stated on good authority
that this policy would mean additions
Lo ct munber of the stations along the
trunk line, where the facilities have
been found to be inadequate to meet the
requirements at present. It is also
stated that additiene will be made to

Both officials, who are now making
their final tour of inspection, declined
to give any definite information regard-
ing the new policy initiated; by the presi-
dent. As the result of this trip, however,
a number of recommendations will be
made, and it will be on this that the

The above has been made by the of-

There is still $50,000 of the second

tal dividend was $740,000.
in spite of the efforts the liquidator
is making to get the shareholders to
take their money, it loons probably
tthat there will be a large sum undis-
tributed. Considering the proportion of
the elitim of the 10,543 silent sharehold-

be 3100,000 uncladined• in the liquida-

decide whether this shall swell the cof-
fers of elm Crown, or whether it shall
go to recompense the ehareholdees.

fifty per cent. The next dividend will
be it final one. It may not come before

CEMENT DUTY
Cut Makes Little Differ-

Ottawa, July 8. -The reeent cut in
the cement duty bas apparently not had,
the expected effect either in inereasing
the importations of cement from the
Felted States or in deereasing the eost
to consnmers. The customs department
reports that so far there hive been in
Bildern Canada at any rate very little
increase in imports of cement. There
has beeu a. slight increase reported from
Toronto, but as far as the department
report goee any increase, is due rather
to the normal inerease in demand ra-,
ther than to any cheapening of price
through the cut in duty.. Reports from
the \met have not yet been. received ie
any detail. but the 8111110 conditions rim
pear to exist.
The reason given is the 'Cram' States
eement manufacturers have increased
their priees to the Canadian builders,
so flint practically the deerease in duty
is offset, and eement ;is eow said to be
premed& ,just its iheaply from the
Canadian manufacturers, as from across
the line.
lndicatione point to a, combination of
the cement manufaeturers in the United

LET THE SUN COOK YOUR FOOD.
Going back to first prinelpleathe latest
food fad is uncooked or sun cooked food.
The advocates of this idea say that "be-
fore the use offire primitive man took
his sestenance as birds and wild animals
still do, and there is evidence that he
bad better teeth, a, hardier body and was
exempt from many of the ailments from
which people suffer to -day." Therefore
they urge that nature should be allowed
to do whatever cooking is necessary,
"In all nature," nay these people, "ev-
ery animal but man finds food ready
prepared. Then why should human be-
ings boil and roast and fry and in the '11
end be worse off than those that eat raw
food? In fact, we have eaten some
kinds of uncooked food for years, and so
the step to a complete diet Le not great.
"Lettuce, tomatoes, celery and fresh
fruits are all uncooked. They are not
predigested so that the stomach is not
deprived of its rightful tasks. The re al
fact is that uncooked food calls for
strong digestive organs, and while it
calls for strong organs it produces them.
No lion or tiger or cow has cooked food;
no fish reeuires it; no hira or flower gets
a. boiled dinuer. Why should we?
These uncooked food advocates are
running; a close race with the frugivors,
who eat only nuts and fruit. Those who
adopt this method of eating do not touch
grains or vegetables of any kind. Some
persons who travel have became enthus-
iastic frag4vore, and congratulate them-
selves that they neVeV have to fret over
buffet cars or hotel menus. Their meals
are alwayS ready and their food contains
no starch to clog the stomach and intes-
tines. Pecans, pigaalias, peanuts, chest-
nuts and other nuts are on their menu In
capital lettere. in eating three meals a
clay the fru:giver eats mite, first, then
sweet fruits and laetly several kinds of
juicy fruit, Raisins, figs, prunes and
dates are soaked before eating and tome-
toee are classee among fruits.
The expense of either the uncooked
food or frugivor diet is .about the same
as ordinary food, and none but the best
fruits, nuts and vegetables are used.
"I am convinced," said a WOMari, who
lived on nuts and fruits and nothing 0.1S8
for a year, "that the frugivor's diet is
the best one. I eat nuts at the begin-
ning of the meal always. This gives
them time and a chance to assimilate
with the fruits that come later, and I al-
ways ehew them to a cream. I did this
long before I heard of the Pletcher meth-
od. I am itt robust health and t attri-

roses, "I firetyound mete of the most
fragrant roses in it mortar; then. 1 take
the brains of birds and pigs well boiled
and stripped of every partiele of meat.
I then add the yolks of !mine eggs, some
oil, it little cordial, some pepper Out
eome wine. After having beaten and
mixed it well together, I place it over
a slow fire. When tine dish is brought,
to table the MOSt delicious fragrance
iFISIleS forth, eovering the gueste with
delight" *Every good housewife in the
seventeenth century made rose water
which was need for flavoring food. --
