Frank De Witt Talmage preach- ed froin the following text : Matthew. »(i, 28. "Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and. I will give you rest." • Thee -old promises of the Bible, of- fering rest and peace to those- who are troubled and in polo and sin, have a far different meaning to us after we have .been compelled to lift the cup of sorrow to our lips and drink its contents to the bitter dregs. When young neon and young women first open- the Bible tbo gospel prom- ises in reference to sorrows and heavy burdens do not appeal very strongly to them. 'their horizons aro always rainbowed. Their hill- sides are always hanging gardens and terraced vineyards. Their bodies always seem to have the warns, rich blood of perpetual youth coursing through their 'veins. 'A physicians prescription is not sought after by the well nor an oculist by those hav- ing good eyes. But when, after we have been compelled to take a long course in the "school of adversity" and then postgraduate course after postgraduate course, oh, then how different God's sweet promises ap- pear to us ! AN 1NTERPRF,TATION. To -day I would talk to those who have floundered knee deep rind chin deep in the quicksands of trouble. I would try to interpret for you what the gospel rest of my text means. I would interpret it not only for those who have found this rest, but also for those who may be persuaded to peek it gs a God given blessing at the foot of the cross. What is your burden, my brother ? Perhaps it is sonic sorrow common to the whole human race. It is very heavy and no lighter from the fact that others are bearing the same load. Perhaps it is some trouble peculiar to your- self that you cannot bear to describe even to a friend. "'Every heart knoweth its own bitterness;" but, w hntever it may be, the invitation Christ gives is for you. He offers you rest from the over whelrning burden of sin. This we the heavy pack which nearly crush° the tired pilgrim in Bunyan s grey allegory. It is the heavy burde that makes the hearts and brain and eyes and feet and hands and th hacks of all terifically ache durin the sad journey of life. A HEAVY ;BURDEN. • as in private then there would bo no difficulty in meeting the financial ob- e ligations of the boards of trustees, 11 we, thc•rnembers of a church, hon- estly and faithfully do the work of our church in a spiritual way God will sco to it that we shall lee able to easily carry its 'financial burdens in a temporal way, MAN'S AMBITIONS. tDoes not Jesus want you to do this e to -day? If Christ will carry the s heavy burden of financial: distress o surely he will bear the heavier bur- g den of the salvation of your chil- dren. EFFICACY OF PRAYER. Oh, that we might, one and all, here and now, enter into a holy con- e spiracy of prayer for the salvation r of our loved ones! This was the © way a great revival wave was start- ed in one of my old churches. It I was by Christian people, members of lithat church, getting together week after week and praying for distinct individuals. It was in this way that •my grandmother and grandfather Iwere converted. Some of you tnay have heard the e d wonderful 1 st r - o writ- ! by'the y i pen or spoken by the lips of my father. It was by a company I of earnest and tearful mothers gath- ering together at a certain time of the day in the barns to pray for the salvation of their children until scores and hundreds stood up in the little village church of Somerville to confess Christ, and the whole region was proved by the power of the holy Ghost. It is by a conspiracy of prayer that a revival can always be started and our loved ones swept in- to the kingdom by a tidal wave of mercy. Thus, my dear friends, tired and heavy hearted, tramping along the ,highway of life, I want to lift the heavy burdens off your hearts. It is these' burdens that aro crushing you, not the journey. Many of the older men have read an essay which was famous many years ago. It was written by the "County Parson" and called "Concerning People Who Car- ry Weights In Life." The author went on to show that it was the extra weights sonic had to carry that made them lose the race of life. And it is these extra burdens which we can cast at the foot of the cross that make us labor and heavy lad- en. Will you not accept the invita- tion of any text? Will you not live in the faith of that blessed promise and die in the hope, as did the beau- tiful Princess Elizabeth, the daugh- ter of Charles I. of England? Upon her marble monument in Nawport church, erected by Queen Victoria, is recorded the fact that she was one morning found dead, with her head pillowed upon the open 'Bible and her finger pointing to the simple words, "Conic unto me all ye that labor and aro heavy laden, and I will give you rest." To -day I urge upon you this wide invitation, with its glorious promise. Christ bids you come with all your burdens and trials, and he will bear them for you. He offers you rest in this life, rest in death and eternal rest be- yond the grave. "Como unto him all ye who labor and are heavy lad- en, and ho will give you rest." The ve nlyIa rather Offers rest al- so inr•ef nc a r v f c e c• to the .salvation o our children • and loved ones. Nearly every healthy normal man has two ambitions, The ono is to live long, Tf I had my own way and could still live in health and strength and live amid the Surroundings I. one leaving to -day as far as I can make out I would like to live on. earth at least i,875years. When I think of all the glorious opportunities of working on earth for my Lord and Master I would not voluntarily change places with the brightest robed denizen of all the redeemed immortals in heave The second ambition which nearly every healthy, normal man has is not only to live long in an earthly scnso, but sono day to own a largo )home, in whioh he eon gather all his children and grandchildren and friends and loved ones about him. And if a man longs to have an earthly home, where he can collect his loved ones, how much more must the Christian long that in his heav- enly 'home he may be able to collect all his dear ones, his children and brothers and sisters and parents and friends—those who are hound to him by ties of love as well as of blood. There is not a true Christian pian or woman who has not felt at heart the heavy burden of an unsaved child or relative or friend. Ah, that is aheavy burden to bear! If I would throw this meeting open to ask for requests 'for prayers from all over this house people would rise and say: "Pray for my hus- band," "Pray for my child," "Pray for my brother," "Pray for my roommate," ""Pray for my sister." But, friend, why do you ask this pulpit to pray for your loved one? Why do you not bring that burden, that heavy burden of the salvation of your child or husband, to Christ? The Ileaveniy Father offers rest from financial distress. The older grow the more I realize that th greatest struggle e ot earth is s of to daily bread. Most people are no lighting for the luxuries, but for th bare necessaries. if a man gets $50 or $100 ahead in the hank then comes some dangerous sickness in the family. His daughter is threat- ened e with blindness, i es sir d she 5 iia. to go to the best oculist and have the most expensive glasses, or his wife downr aid'h b ° nu sto g off for rest, and extra servants are hired, and the whole sum of money is soon swept away. Said a young man of about thirty- five years of age to me a short time ago : "I have no sympathy for people who financially do not get ahead. If they, would systematize their business and work regularly they would have plenty of money." "Yes," I solilo- quized as I looked at him, "that is all well enough for you to say. You have a mother who has supported you all your life. You have never known what it is to pay a dollar for rent. Only a few clothes have ever come out of your salary. What would you have done if you had four or live children and had' to live upon your salary and perhaps support a widowed mother or an orphan sis- ter, as many, aye, most men have to do ?" Life for the most of us is a ceaseless struggle for a bare phys- ical existence. The financial burden is the heavy ono to bear. Most of us are ready to grant that. That burden, too, Christ will bear if you commit it to his hands. Your anxiety, your dis- tress, your foreboding, he will re- ieve, and he will give you rest. 'Now," says some one, "the preach- r- is talking simple nonsense 1 If do not get out and hustle and Yogic and worry and get the money o feed and clothe and educate my hildren God will never do it for me. do not believe in expecting that od will relieve me of my financial distress any more than I would ex- ect the water to boil in the kettle f I did not have a fire in the stove ✓ my cupboard be full of food un- ess I could order it at the grocer's ✓ the butcher's. When you begin o talk about God carrying the bur- den of financial distress then you are simply talking about something you know nothing about." A HINT TO CHURC1I MEMBERS. And, my dear Christian friends, this lea to roll the financial iistress of our lifo upon Chriat brings up a ery pertinent lesson which ought to e practiced by all our churches. Do ou know why the average Christian lurch is having such bard work to et along financially ? At the end f the year a few rich men have to ut their halide in their pockets and stake uta the heavy deficit. It is bo- auso these cht.u•ches in looking after le temporal life of their members in - ear) of the spititual aro yiot doing heir duty. The best way to get a III church treasury is not, as some eoplo suppose, to have a bazaar, or n oyster supper, . or an evening's itertainnient of Mrs, Jarley's Wax- orks, or a concert. The true way to get a full church treasury is to have a full prayermeeting: If the' rich men of a church, the leading men officially, would set the right example to the average church in.em- bers and come to the weekday meet- ings and take a Sunday school class and practice player In public its wolf Plasters and Liniments No Good., This was the oxporlonce of Mr. l3enfamtat Stewart.

Citron, xxvii,, 1-10, ,Golden Text, Pyov, iii,, 5. Our lesson - is entitled "David's charge to Solomon," but that is covered in verses eJ and 10; the vers- es preceding give. David's charge to Israel' through her representative men; but the complete charge both to Solomon and the people ineludes at least the last two verses of this chapter -and the first five of the next. The address • to both concerns very largely the temple which Daviel had it in his heart to build .and - for which. the Made abundant provision, but- concerning which. Cod said unto pini, ''Thot) shalt not build an House for my naive because thou heist been a Ulan of war and hast shed blood (verses 1-3), Many things suggest themselves to the mine) of a child of (,od which seem both to the• bolievcr and to his intimate friends to be good and right but the suggestions •are not of (4od. On the other hand, God sometimes tells a believer to do that which scenes contrary to the coalmen sense and good judgment both of )himself and his fellow believers. Even Na- than, the prophet, thought that David's purpose to -build a temple was all right, ancl he at first one couraged him in it (I. Clu•on. 1, 2), The apostle Paul thought that he ought to preach the word in Asia and in Ilithymia ou his way west during his second tour, but the Spir- it forbade him to do so at that time (Acts xvi., 6, 7). And what could seem more contrary to all sound Judgment of men than to build a great vessel with no water in sight, to expect a Sea to divide, a river to stop flowing, a city's walls to fall down by unseen hands, five loaves of bread to feed 5,000 men, or to roll away a stone from a tomb and ex- pect a corrupting body to come forth in health? But these are only parts of ilis ways, and how little a portion we hear of Hint? (Job xxvi., 14; see also It, V.) In creation and in redemption God in Christ was the only worker, and in the daily life of each believer it must be His work- ing which worketh in us, or it will prove to be wood, hey and stubble, which must bo burned up (Phil. 11., 13; Col. 1., 29; I. Cor. iii., 14, 15). God is ever working all things af- ter the counsel of Itis own will, ac- cording to the eternal purpose which He purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord (Eph. i., 11; iii., 11). Abel and Seth, not Cain, Isaac, not, Ish- mael; Jacob, not Esau; Judah, not Reuben or the others; David, not Eliah; Solomon, not Nathan, are the chosen sons of men through whom the Son of Man is to come who will himself be the true Temple and Tab- ernacle -(John ii., 19-21; ITeb. 1, 2); also the chief corner stone of the building now being completed (Eph. ii„ 19-21), and the son of ; David to sit on David's throne and reign •over the house of Jacob for- ever (Luke i., 31-33). The throne of David at Jerusalem is the only throne h on earth that hasI , ever been called the throne of the; Lorca (verse 5; chap. xxix, 23; II. 1 Chron. ix 8), and Jerusalem is the' only city on earth that will be call- ed "the throne of the Lord" (Jeri' iii, 17), and the -only thing that I I have found in Scripture that God says He will do with His whole heart and soul is that He will place Israel in their own land, give, them; one heart and one way to fear Him and make then His people in the sight of all nations (Jer. xxxii, 37- 42). It is part of I•Iis eternal pur- pose, and He will do in spite of all the caviling and unbe'ief of Jews and gentiles. Let us give special attention in the remainder of our meditation to the charge to Solomon and take what we can of it to our own hearts. On April 2)3, 1886, verse 9 was made a very special blessing to any soul as, I rode on the train from Scranton to Phiidaelphia. -A memorandum me'f the margin of my Bible reminds me of this, and the blessing lasts to this day. There is nothing greater than to know God (Jer. ix, 28, 24; John xvii, 3; xiv, 9; Phil, iii, 10, 11. Pet. iii, 18), to know Him as our Father through Jesus Christ, for no man knoweth the Father save the Son and he to whomsoever the Son will e reveal Him (Matt. xi, xi, '27 ).

Religious Subjects, Crests and Portraits in Demand, ''The tattooing craze among Ameri- can women is drawn atten?inn to by Profeesur• (�litclhell, who states that the Saviour, wearing a crown of thorns. is the most repular device. Mr. Alfred South, of Cockspur St., London, who may be deeeribed as the pioneer of the tattooing art, has during his career operated on up- wards of 1.5,0(10 persons, including about vile hundred Engli h women, the designs in a great number of !eases being of a most peculiar do- ; sehiption. Perhaps the most striking of all are representations of two celebrated ( paintings, "Tie Crucifixion" and "Excel act Horno." One woman has de- pitted e- pitted ore l•er skin a picture replete a flight of birds.

This pie - tare, which has been tattooed on the skin of one woman only, is entitled "Love gone to pot." 4' PRACTISE DEEP BREATHING. Deep breathing cannot be practised too often in the open air, and the clearer and purer the air, the deep- er you should breathe. It will seem a hard task at first, but one soon will find it pleasant, and the results will be apparent in straighter shouI- ders, better developed chest, clearer skin, and sweeter breath. This method of breathing is the real elix-i r of life," and better than any . youth restorer in the market. In a short time you will be breathing correctly, awake or asleep. It is to be remembered that deep breathing; also fills out sunken and hollow . cheeks, clears the lungs, and reduces! the abdomen, It is a comnaratively , asy task to teach children who have lot acquired fixed bad habits, whosethe Scriptures, e.xcept those wbo areborn of God by receiving Jesus °Christ as their Saviour, who also acreated all things (John i 1-18) e are no children of Then to serve Him with a perfect or 1 whole heart and a willing mind, re- 1 membering that IT° searcheth and fi uniderstandoth all the imaginations of the thoughts of our hearts' --this is life in earnest. Concerning the perfect heart see Gen. xvii, 1; Heb. xiii, 20. lothing admits of perfect fr low to breathe properly. The habit f deep breathing is formed quickly, nd in normal conditions is maintain-' ci through life. The weak, who rave cramped their lungs and re - axed all the breathing muscles, will nd that the formation of the new habit requires persistent daily prac- tice, but when it once is established they will have health and vigor. 1 WHERE WE GET MUSIC. As truly as the palace which Sol- omon was to build was not for roan, but for the Lord God, so the daily life of every believer is first of all for the kingdom of God and His righteousness (chap. xxix, 1; Matt. ti, 313). Let the words "Take heed; he strong and do; be strong and of gond courage and do; fear not, nor bo dismayed," and the other words of verses 10 and 20 be compared with Dent. xxxi. 6,.8; ,cosh. 1, 5-9; Hag. ii, 4, 5, and then humbly but hon- estly appropriate as your very own Clods special personal message to your. own .soul, and, like David, you will find your affection set upon the house of your God, and with all your might you will prepare the way of the Lord, and others will be led to rejoice and offer willingly to do likewise (chap, xxix, 2, If, 0).

The top slice can be spread with whipped cream, ice cream or a meringue of the white of an egg. Crackers and cookies can be spread with jelly or jam and two placed to- gether sandwich fashion. A dish of these with milk makes a good des- sert for chilcb•en when too rich a des- sert forms the portion of the adults in the family. A very little currant jelly added to a hot water sweet sauce for pudding improves it, and a teaspoonful of this jelly melted and added to whip- ped. cream or the beaten whites of eggs will color it a dainty pink. Frosting can be colored with the red currant jelly to a pretty pink, while red raspberry or grape will produce a delicate lavender. If there is a little of seteral kinds of jelly and preserves on hand, put them alt into an agate kettle and add half a lemon or the juice of an orange. A few bits of pared apple can. be added and the whole stewed for 1 5 or 20 minutes. Sweeten if necessary, add a spoonful of sherry., if it is liked, and the whole will be a delicious pot- pourri sort of sauce that will prove a pleasing change, if the tasting and sweetening are done by a careful cook.

When woolencloth is to be pressed but not washed, it is sometimes the question of how best to give it the, dampness that will enable the hot iron to remove folds and wrinkles. Good results are to be had by eyeing- ing a sheet out of warm water, spreading it on a large table, ar- ranging upon it the pieces to be pressed and then folding or rolling all in a bundle. After lying thus for several hours, the cloth is evenly damp. but not wet, and all creases and fold soften to the best possible condition for the ironing. The pressing rather than the ironing must be done slowly with irons not too hot nor ex tea cool, moving 4m h just t fast enough to prevent one from printing its outline ou the goods. ITot enough to raise the steam, but not hot enough to scorch the wool, is right for the irons. s . Ladies' cloth treated thus loses av eiy crown and the too clinging softness lent it by wear. Thinner goods are handled the same way with success. The pro- cess of course, is that followedc d by all tailors and called "sponging," except that no pressing follows the dampness of new cloth. It being merely spread smooth and left to dry. FIVE -EYED BEES. The eyes of an animal can only work together when they can be brought to bear upon an object at the sane time; so that, as a rule, the eyes of a fish must work more or less independently. This is some- times also the case when the eyes can co-operate, as anyone who watches a plaice or other flat fish in an aquarium will soon discover. Many animals possess more than two eyes, which do not act together. A. leech, for example, has ten eyes on the top of its head, which do not work in concert, and a kind of ma- rine worm has two eyes on the head, and a row down each side of the body. Some lizards have an extra eye on the top of the head, which does not act with the other two. A bee or wasp has two large, compound eyes, which possibly help each other, and are used for near vise ion, and also three little simple eyes on the top of the head, which are employed for seeing things a long way oft. cro (?
