Ws that at this early date in the his-
tory of the cameral there was a minia-

with ;specific duties and authotity. It is
the duty of the minister to 'labor," to
manage the affairs of the church, and to
"admoniele" On the other hand, dee
consideration should be shown him by
. the Chorale They should esteem and
' love him. •
13. For their work's sake -The true
niiniater is an ambassador of heaven.
He deals with epiritual and eternal veri.
ties and is direotly reeponeible to God
1 fur leis faithfulness. His is it high and
exalted ealliog. 14. Brethren-eThis ex-
hortation applies to ministers and ley- .
men alike. Admonish the disorderly (R.
V.) -Warn those disorderly persons (IL
These. 3, 6-12) who. would not work and
yet expeoted to be maintained; also
those insubordinate as to clitireli discip-
line. Feetileminded-"Fainthearted."-,11

of iaformation or a lack of ca-paeity to
iioderstand the truth. Suck people peed

We can -"support" others with (1) our
aro %thy, (2) our prayers, (3) our ex.
-
aunple arid (4) onr counsel. Be patient
5ongsuffering."-R. V. Sae Ool. 1,
IL We all need patience shown us by
ethers, and we should all show patieace
to others. Longsuffering is a mark of
Christian grace. "Charley saffereth
long" (I. Cor. 13, 4). It is an attribute
of God, and -we should remember His pa-
tience toward us and strive to treitate
hie. longsufferin,g and kindness. 15. See
that none, etc.-Soine one has said,
"Evil for evil is beast -like; evil for good
is devil -like; good for good ii manlike;
' good for evil- is godlike." Retaliation
betrays a weak, ignoble and croel dis-
position. "He is below himself who is „
not abovP an injury." "Small souls
alone hold grudges.' Hut ev-er folthw,
etc. -The Trus Christian always renders
good for evil. The line of conduct here
outlined is to be pursued. both within
and without the church. No follower of
Christ will intentionally harm any man.
113. Rejoice always (11. V.) -He who
would. always rejoice must pray without
eeasing. Paul had learned t,he secret
that "in sorrow endured for Christ's
sake there is hidden it new spring of
joy," See Rom. 5: 3-5; 2 Cor, 12: 10;
and the words of Christ in Matt. 5:
*10-12. To rejoics-ifs not only a duty,
,but a ;privilege. The Christian has the
fountain of joy within him. 17. Pray -
True prayer springs from the heart. It
includes (1) an acknowledgment of God,
(2) thankfulness, (3) confession, (4)
enteaty. It le our duty to pray because
(1) it is eommarided, (2) because it
tends to inapress uS, with a sense of our
dependence upon. God, (3) because it is
the means by whielt we oommune with
God, (4) &caw. It is made the condi-
tion of our receiving from God. Pre-
vailing prayer ay,spriple from. a sense
of real need, .(2 19 earnest, (3) is
humble; (41 is iniportunate, (5) is of-
fered for specific blessings, (6) pleads
the •promises and rests in them as the
ground of all faith. Without ceasing
-This does not mean that we should
be constantly on our knees in prayer,
although 14 18 safe to assert that • only
. a few spend as lima tiine on their
knees before. God as they ought, but it
does mean that we should always have
the spirit of prayer and live in an at-
mosphere of prayer.
„
18. Give thanks -Even in prosecution
we should thank God that we are con-
sidered worthy to suffer foe Christ.
"Prayer and thanksgiving are the two
wings of the soul by which it rises up-
ward. to God."-leindlay. 'Will of (kid

slould be a rejoicing, praying, grateful
people. Coneerning you -You Thessa-
Thule brethren, persecuted, afflicted
and tempted to diseouragentent, are es-

spiritual exercises. 10. Quench not-
Sinee the Spirit may be quenched he Is

cost (Acts 21 3). The emblem sets
forth the sudden and vehement activi-
ties of the Holy Spirit, with his gifts
of warmth fore the heart and light for

human spirit. -Cam. Bib. "The gift of
the Spirit wits then existing, deep and
powerful, in the young Thessalonian
church," and they were hero commanded
not to forbid those who spoke under
divine inspiration. Rut the command is
univeteal. Whateler hinders the work

here forbidden. The Spirit is quenched
by depreciation, neglect or sin.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS.
(Christian Living.)
I, Rejoicing. "Rejoice alway" (v. 16).
Can one rejoice who has suddenly fallen
from affluence to penury, or who is in
great bodily affliction, or is unjustly
accused and persecuted, or is bereaved
of loved ones dearer than life, or sees
his children ruined by crime and his
family disgraced by their arrest, con-
viction and punishment? Yes, such an
one can rejoice, because the Christian's
peace and joy do not depend upon world-
ly eircumstances, or anything physical
or temporal. The ground of rejoicing
is not in any earthly condition or event,
bot in that which cannot be in any way
effected or impaired thereby. kis joy
is in the Lhrd, in the cei'h'siciousness of
his forgiveness and love, of constant
communion with Lim, of the abiding
presence ailed ministrations of the Spirit
and en the certainty of a heavenly in-
heritance. These are sources of joy which
if the Christian sciewill, nothing in the
world can impair •or take away, even
though be may be so sorely afflioted
that he can fittingly use Paul's para-
dox, "As sorrowful, yet always rejoic-
ing," in describing his condition.
II. Praying. "Pray without ceasing"
(v. 17). What breathing is to the phy-
sical, praying is to the spiritual. As
we eau breathe unconsciously, we can
lift up tho spirit to God silently and
unconsciously. Several ministers met to
•discus certain topics; among others, "is
it possible tis pray without ceasing?"
After discuseion, one of the number
was -appointed to rad an •essay upon
it at the next monthly meeting; which
being overheard by a servant, she ex-
claimed: "What, a whole month wanted
to tell the meaning of that text! It is
one of the easiest in the Bible." "Well,
well," said an old minister, "Mary,
what can you say about it? Let usi koow
how you understand it. Can you pray
• all the time, when you have so many
things to do?" "Why, sir, the more I
have to do, the more I can pray." "In-
deed! Te1u, Mary, do let us know how
it is, for most people think otherwise."
"Well, sir," said the girl, 'when I first
open .my eyes in the morning I pray,
'Lord, open the eyes of my understand-
ing;' and while I am deeming I •pray
that 1 may be clothed with the robe of
righteousness;•and when I have washed
me I ask for the washing of regenera-
tion; and as I begin work I pray that
I may have etrength equal to my day;
When I begin to kindle up the fire I
pray that God's work may revive in my
soul; and as 'sweep out the house I
pray that any heave may be cleansed
from all ite impurities; and while pre-
paring and partaking of breakfast I
desire to be fed with the hidden manna
and the sincere milk of the world; and
as I am busy with the little children
I look up to God as my Father and pray -
for the spirit of adoption that I may
be his child -and so on all (hey; every-
thing I do furnishes me with a thought
for prayer." "Enough," cried the old
minister, "these things are rhvealed un.
to babe, and often hid from thewise
and prjident. Go on, Mary, -pray withe
out ceasing; and as for us, my brethern,
let us bless the Lord for this exposi-
tion."
IIL Contineinge "Hold fast that which
is good" ('e 21). "Hold fast" is a spec-
ial word foe these last days. "Hold fast
the form of sound verde" (2 Tim. 1. 13).
"Holding faith and a good conscience"
(1 Tim, 1. 19). Mold feet the confie
donee and the rejoicing of the hone firm
unto the end" (Hob. 3. 6). "Let us hold
fast the profession of our faith without
wavering" (Hob. 10. 23). "Holding'the

GENERAL STAFF.
Discussed at theDefence Conference
in London.
London, Aug. 2, -The second sitting
of the Imperial Defence Conference
held at the War Office to -day, lasted
two and it half liours. The Earl of Crewe
presided. Mr. Haldane explained the
War Office memorandum on the mili-
tary defence of the empire. There was a
general discussion on tb.e question of an
Imperial General Staff and other mat-
ters of importance. No resolutions were
put to the conference. A comraittee of
experts was nominated to discuss cer-
tain technical details and will meet at
the War Office to -morrow. The confer-
ence adjourned until Tuesday, when it
is expected the Admiralty memorandum
on naval defence will be brought for-
ward.
In the House of Commons Mr. As-
quith announced that the members of
the Imperial Defence Conference would
be asked to pit on the Imperial Defence
Committee before returning. Mr. Bal -
foil; hoped the invaluable assistance of
the representatives of the'self7governing
dominions iyould grow. The right path
was being followed in these matters. Sir
Charles Dilke suggested that the best
method of over -sea assistance to Imper-
ial defence would be the provision of a
squadron of fast cruisers for*the Pacific.

fe Roy, Aug. 2. -Jacob Thomas, 74
years old, a highly respected negro,
died yesterday afternoon at his home
on South avenue.
IVIr. Thomas, during the last twelve'
years of his life, underwent the re-
markabe change in color from a negro
of the darkest hue to one almost
white, so enuch so that he would pass
for a white man 08 'the street by those
who did not know him. Mr. Thomas
first noticed small spots of white ap-
pearing on his hands, and these spots
continued to spread until his entire
body took on the color shown in the
first spots which appeared on his
hands, Such cases are very rare. It
is believed that Mr. Thomas' health
was impaired by the change.
Mr. Thomas was a veteran of the
Civil War and a member of Steunton
Post, G. A. R., cif this village. His
wife died about two months ago. lie

THE CIGARETTE.
550 Places in the Capital Where
They Can be Bought.
(Ottawa Journal.)
The efforts of the Women Christian
Temperance Union to persuade the City
COuncil to inerease the amount of the
ciarette license fee is altogether com-
mendable. The object of the several
branches of the union in Ottawa is to
minimize and in the end entirely pre -
omit the sale of cigarettes to minors.
They think, and quite reaeonably think,
that the increase in the fe.e would large-
ly decrease the number of places at
which cigarettes woukl be sold, make it
inereasingly diffieult for boys to obtain
cigarettes and in every way tend to
stamp out the evil ill Ottawa.
For le ie an evil. Cigarette smoking
by boys not yet out of knickerbockers
is a commou sight in Ottawa, It is a
sight that tries the hurnan sensibilities
of anyone with any experience in ter
knowledge of the matter. Where an,
adult may make a practice of smoking
cigarettes without any visible impair-
ment of his energies, physical or mental,
there is only a negligible proportion of
children in their teens immune from the
deterioration which follows the use of
tobacco at an early age. It is a common
argument -by tne defenders of the cigar-
ette that the tobaeco in a good cigarette
is tobacco in its purest form. The
cigarettes within the means of the aver-
age hoy who fells within the hooks of
the habit are not composed of tobacco
in its purese form, Their fumes would
poison even a tobacco -proof adult. In-
halation, the highest ambition of the
tyro cigarette smoker, applies the liar-
cotie to the nerve centres oearest the
brain. The boy- who sol'okes cigarettes
et all is sowing in his szstem the seeds
df physieal, mental and moral decadente.
This is not a theory; 14 18 t fact ascer-
tained in experience.
Now, Ottawa charges only $1 for a
license to sell eigerettee. In Toronto
foe the sale of Macro only there is a
fee of $1, for tobaeeo and cigars it is
$5, and for tobaceo, cigars and cigar-
ettes $25, or, in other words, for the
sale of cigarettes $25 is the fee, In
Winnipeg the retailers of eigorettes
pay an annual tax of $50. In Toronto
and Winnipeg apparently the objet is
to pinee the right to sell eigatetbea only
in the -hands of persons of unquestioned
substanee, who will be the more eitutious
to observe the law in all respeets.
It Is sititi that in Ottawa there are
no lees than 550 lieenos for the sale
of eigareteee, A boy under the legal age
wonld find it diffieult arid probably
imposeible to obtain cigarettes from an
experiented tobaceoniet whose time is
gieen entirely to the sale of tebleco. But
Id might finl 14 2204 so bard to *Mein
them from persons to whom the sale of
eigerettes la et side line.
However that may be, smoking of
eigerettee by mall hone in Ottawa has
attained fotnielable dimenaione, and the
City Council would do well to accept the
proposition of an increased liceoee fee.
The pollee have a duty in the matter,.
too. Under the law they have the right
to interrogate any boy under 16 with
eigaretths in his possession; this' inter-
rogation with a view to ascertaining the
identity of the. seller. If the police do
not see, the boys smoking cigarettes in
Ottawa they must lutve their eyes
closed. If they were to exercise a little
more vigilance and seeure a few convic-
tions on these lines. they might help
along it good cause. The cigarette
should be effectively forbidden to the
boy.
