Woe uuto curse is pronounced upon those who use their letluence to make others wicked. What Firmer does not influence some one to core- I mit sin or to reyect the offers oe mercy? The only way to esea.pe this woe is to. turn to the Lord withaU the heart and serve hint faithfully, Both he that influences another to sin, and he that is thus influenced, are guilty. 2. It e ere better -This verse declares that the responsibility of living a wicked life is terrible. He who pursues a sinful courseis becoming a greater sinner, and at the same time is causing ethers to stumble, "In other words, the fate of a man who is lying- drown- ed at the bottom of the sea is better than if his continuance in life would have led to causing `one of these little ones' to stumble. The general thought is like that of Queen Blanche, who used to say of her son St. Louis, when he was a boy, that she would rather See him* dead at her feet, than know that he had fallen into a deadly sin." --Cam. Bible. Millstone ----A. stone used in grinding grain. The Greek indi- cates that a large stone is meant, one so large as to require a mule to turn it. Cast into the sea -One of the mode of execution then in use was to fasten a heavy weight to the prisoner's neck and throw him into the water. These little ones -The reference here is not to children particularly, but to the converted publicans and sinners who formed a part of the audience. All followers of Jesus may be dominated by this expression. The language shows the tender regard Jesus has -for all his followers. II. A forgiving spirit (vs. 3, 4). 3. Take heed to yourselves -Jesus had just warned the disciples against be- ing overthrown by the temptations or influence of others and ,against doing anything to hinder others from fol- lowing the Lord. He now warns them against cherishing an unforgiving spirit. "Take heed. among yourselves not to be led by a brother's trespasses into resentment and sin."- Whedon. Trespass against thee -"Sin." ---R. V. Rebuke -This duty was recognized un- der the old dispensation (Lev. 19. 17; Prov. 17. 10).‘The rebuke was designed to bring the offender to a realization of .his wrong and to repentance. For- giveness is emphatically set forth in the Christian dispensation as a duty. 4 Seven times he a day -The intention is not to limit the number of times to seven, but seven was regarded as an indefinite expression which indi- cated an unlimited number. The Jews' ideal of a forgiving spirit was that the offender might be forgiven three times in all, "Seventy times seven," or for- giveness without limit, is the expres- sion of the New Testament spirit of forgiveness.

Thou shalt forgive him- We mist not permit a spirit of criticism or impatience to possess, us toward a brother or his oft -repeated wrongs, but should cherish toware him a ten- der and loving disposition. This spirit Will be a source of strength to the one who forgives and will be helpful to him who is forgiven. The opposite of a forgiving spirit is a spirit of hatred or revenge, and the dispositions that are in the word of God commended are in full harmony with the spirit of forgiveness. 111, The Dower of faith (vs. 5, 0). 5. The apostles -The twelve chosen to be the especial attendants of Jesus, and tbe ones who bad been sent out by him to preach and work miracles. Increase our faith -This prayer was offered by the apostles in view or the great responsibility placed upon thorn by Christ's teachings regarding offens- es and forgiveness. They had faith, and they wanted more. They knew that their Master could show them the way to greater faith. 6. The Lord said -He proceeded to explain the power of faith in exercise. If ye had faith -We do not understand that., Jesus would imply that they had no faith, but rather that the faith they had was not being so used as to in- crease it. As a grain of mustard seed.

Be thou pluck- ed up by the root -Jesus is manifestly using a strong figure of speech to show the possihilities of faith. The fi- gure, slightly changed, is used in Matt. 17. 20, and Mark 11. 23, vhere the ob- Ject to be removed is a mountain. As Jesus was speaking in the open air, it is likely that a sycamine tree was near by, and to it he pointed as he spoke. It should obey you- The pluck- ing up of such a tree and the planting of it in the sea, presents a natural im- possibility, yet it woula be done; hence, by an exercise Of faith the apostles could carry out their Mas- ter's teachings regarding affenses and forgiveness, and could meet all the other requirements of the kingdom.

Miss Innes is widely known in New York, Toronto and other large centres as a 1 Teacher of Dressmaking and as author of the most complete work on this subject: "Scientific Dressmaking and Millinery." This book has been ordered by the govern - menti for use in Women's Institutes .throughout this province, and is being put into Ipractically all Public Libraries. The experience which Miss Innes has had with Dr. Chase's Nerve Food is told in such an interesting manner in her letter that we shall quote it in full. Miss L Innes, 245 Huron St., Toronto, writes :-"I have a strong constitution and do not neglect the health as many do whose strenuous lives of overwork lead to breakdown of the nervous system. Consequently when, on receipt of a tele- gram announcing the death of a brother who was very dear to me, the nerves failed me, I went to my doctor and his prescription acted beautifully and restored the nervous system for a time. Again in New York I felt the need of a tonic and had the doctor's prescription filled but to no avail, and just here I want to emphasize the necessity of going to a reliable druggist who you know will use only the best and purest drugs. I was benefitted to some extent by trying a prescription which is used extensively by stock brokers on Wall Street, where fortunes are made and lost in a day, and the nerves give way under the enormous strain. This helped me but .1 ani writing this letter to say that nothing I used tould for a moment be compared to Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. This treatment restored my exhausted nerves, gave me new vigor and energy, and banished the many distressing and disheartening symptoms which only nervous people will understand. I know there are authors, journalists and business men with whom 1 wine in contact daily who should know about this great nerve restorative. I know there are women in the home straining the last nerve to make .the best use of the income in these times of high prices and whose nerve cells have been sapped by worry and anxiety until they live in misery and do not understand the reason. It is because I know this that I want to tell these nervous, worn out people about Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. From my own expefience I know just how they feel and just as certainly know that Dr. Chase's Nerve Food will prove a wonderful blessing to them."

PRACTICAL SURVEY. Topiee-Standard-bearers, 1. Of praetical piety. la Of faithful service. I. Of practical piety. The (aselples haa been listening to Christ's wonder- ful teachings in the various perablea which he applied to the Pharisees in their linacrisy and selfishness, show- ing how far short they were from gospel standards, and how their op- position and peraccution, against His cause must bring divine coneernnation of their sin, When the Master said, 'Take heed to yourselves," it emptied great reeponsibility. Nothing could more strongly mark the deep interest Ito took in His disciples than the se- verity of His indignation against .those who wronged them. The inten- sity of His wrath was the meteor° of Um depth and tenderness of His love, and at the sante time they weft made to feel that physical suffering or tem- poral misfortune was much to be pre- ferred to sin, Because their pathway was beset with moral evil, and the aim of Satan was ever tu lead them int' doubt, unbelief, denial or apost- asy, they needed a power over the forces of evil outside themselves. The want of consideration foi• others had been clearly defined in the parable of the rich man and was visited with such retribution that the disciples were urged to watchfulness. While Jesus plainly implied that defenceless indiveluals who fall through stumbl- ingablocks placed in their path, shall have in God an avenger, the disciples were exhorted to direct their conduct against every tendency to such evil between themselves. The great of- fence which had hindered the people from accepting the gospel had been the hypocritical zeal of the Pharisees to secure an adherence to their stand- ards, rather than the real Christian unity . of sincerity, charity and mu- tual forbearance, which Jesus set forth as the band of perfectness. Nev- er did tile meek an.e gentle Saviour speak in terms mare threatening and more reproachful than viten. He spoke .01 the enormity of moral contamina- tion. The apostles' prayer for an in- crease of faith refereed to the every- day duty- of forgiveness. There is a close connection between faith and forgiveness. Faith would increase their confidence, so that the gospel re- quirements would not appear an 1)11 - possible task. An increase of faith would make the gospel a greater pow- er in their lives. They perceived the excellency as well as the difficulty of the conduct •prescribed to them, and that faith was the principle from which it must proceed. Jesus' answer assured them that where there was auy degree of faith they might be sure of a divine power co-operating, which would enable them to tear up the roots of selfishness, against which the commandment of love had been laid. He showed that their faith need- ed to be increased in its power as well as its extent. If. Of farthful service. This appar- ently least inviting and most difficult parable, touching Christian service, has muck strengthening and stimulat- ing truth embodied in it. The Apostles needed a more complete and im- plicit confidence in Jesus, a more Profound reverence and fervent affection, finding their highest ex- cellence in an unwearied continuance, though the requirements of disciple- ship embraced more than they. ex- pected when Ho first said: "Follow me." After the gracious assurarecee that He Would avenge their wrongs, He sought to concentrate their atten- tion upon the spirit in which they should render service to God. His method of teaching here was by con- treet, both of masters and servants. In contralti to master and slave, there is affection between God and His chil- dren, filiai Rive on one side and pater - 1101101 -0 on the other; dependence and wealtreee and clinging trust on one side, race, almighty power end in- finite fulnets on the other. God does not require man to be a profitable servatt, but a faithful one. The faith- ful and industrious servant is ap- proved by Him, however feeble his power, howeverlimited his scope.- -- FORAGE PLANTS Results of Experimects By Dom:nion Experts.
