The north lias been combed by collectors and the BO?th, ulrange to say. that ought to havi) some wonderful things in that line, seems absolutely crusty of them. You can count on the fingors of one hand .the houses In any town that has any real old mahogany or walnut. There arc some beautiful new pieces, but they are few and far bot ween, but the rare old highboys, brasses, sideboards and tables, are conspicuous by their absence. Let me beg those who own any of them to treasure them as fine gold, do nn? varnish, that <s not only ugly, but ruinous, keep wo.l polished, and sea that the exqisite color and grain of the wood, comes clear. One house I know of in this section would be a dellrlouj Joy to most collectors. The old hand carved sofas, entrancing tables with slim legs, and wonderful strips of brass Inlay, shining against the rich rod of the wood, dining .tables of solid mahogany with clnw feet holding brass balls, sideboards wide and deep, with columns on cither end. Treasures indeed, and there has been many houses Just as full of wonder ful old frnlture that has been sacri ficed to the bad taste of those who In herited them. Ono or two pleceB or genuine old mahogany or walnut dignifies and ca liches a room in a manner, that all the new furniture in the world can not do. I do not decry new furniture that is giod in taste, and elegant in style, but there is a cheap gaudy high colored kin i. that is an abomination, and I have known cases where a su perb piece of old walnut or mahogany has been sold for a trifle and a mlsor ble article of dyed, and varnished wood, bedizened with brass and glass was put tn Its place. A collector would have shed tears at the sight. A lady had a very old table belonging to her grandmother, they thought it ugly with its many legs, and wide hinged leaves, that could he let down by the sides. (Being unusually heavy | It was Seldom moved, and was thrust into some out of the way corner, whore It would not be seen. One house cleaning day, It was taken out, and well scrubbed. Borne ono, In on , 'excess of zeal, rubbed It with oil, and j was astonished to see a thing of beau ty emerge. The wonderful shades of color the.', glows deep in mahogany, shown on the despised old table, tho graceful flowing lines of the grain were perfect to see. I believe many an old piece of rare wood, Is hidden in very many houses. Never Bell any thing of the kind until you scrub the dust, of agos off, and rub with ell, then-if you See a rich deep gleam in the wood, or a velvet leaf brown, you have come across a treasure of either I mahogany <f walnut; keep It, and re joice. The Kitchen. Everyone screens a kitchen, of course, but I spoke before how badly lighted "they generally were. Long sliding double windows, high onongh up to keep th draught from the stove, particularly if you use the blue flame stoves, which is very Busceptable to draught, is I think the best pirn, liavo the windows directly over yUhr work table, and in front of your stove. Side lights are deceptive, a* id when you think your biscuits or cake is ! barely brown, they 'dr?' preparing to brown. One of the most disagreeable tasks in connection with cooking, is thn washing of dishes, pots and pana. A wire dryer Is a great convenience. Use a mop, very hot water, and soap, wash the china .arefully and pnt in the dryer, by th i time yon are wash ing the last pi Vie, the others are dry, beautifully polished, and ready to be pnt .away.

Skeptics who formerly laughed at the record cf II Chron. 14:9 or at the reputed alzo of Xerxes' army are pain fully silent in the fuco of the present European etrugglo wber? armlos uro reckoned by tho millions. Abijah, Re boboam's euccoBsor, cusily defeated Jeroboam (ch. 13:13-20) because he "relied upon the Lord," and "Asa his eon reigned in his stead." I. Righteousness Exhorted, vv. 1-7. Returning from his wonderful victory over Zorah tho Ethiopian, Asa is met by tho splrlt-anolntcd prophet, Azarlah (v. 1). This man was taken posses sion of by tho spirit of God (II Pet. 1:21; Num. 21:2; Judges 3:10; II Tim. 3:10). Thus it was thut he commands even the king, "Hear yo mo" (v. 2). IBs Urtt words wcro encouraging ones, "Jehovah Is with you," and tho proof of his word was thu victory Asa had just wo-., (ch. 32:8; Rom. 0:31; Deut. 20:1). That victory was a dem onstration, it involved an obligation and had a lesson for tho king as well, viz., that if he and his people would seek Jehovah they would find him, but If they forsook him "he will forsake you." Tho words recorded In verso threo were a fearful Indictment ("with out tho true Gcd," Eph. 2:12) and they are a suggestive picture Of this ago that is bo sadly in need of a "teaching priest" and is so constantly acting as though "without law" or clso is a law unto itself. But God was merciful (P3. 103:8; 117:2), and in that time of testing was working his good will. Thuu it came that "in their great trouble" (v. 4) they sought Johovuh and "lie was found of them." Neglecting him thero was "no pcaco," and "great vexations" also (Isa, 48:22). Our Lord hus prophcolcd even greater calamities In the inst days of Israel's apostasy (Matt 24:0, 7) and tho pres ent upheaval In Europo cun bo large* ly traced to apostusy and to tho treat ment of God'b people Israel. II. Righteousness Executed, vv. 8-15. (1) The King'a Part, vv. 8, 6. Acu, had shown himself worthy of this spe cial revelation from God: (a) his con duct (14:2, 3. 5); (b) his werde ut command and exhortation (14:47*! (c) bis care tor and servlco in be half of others (14:CO); (d) hla rolianco upon und zeal of God (14:11). Vorse eight Is suggestive of tho way he re ceived this revelation; (a) ho "took courage"?a word of commondation will revlvo nny weary heart, (b) He "put away tho abominations," most thoroughly, which his great-grandfath er Solomon had brought into Israel, and In accordance with tho word of God (Deut. 7:0). There aro many strange altars in our land today, forms of religion that stand not the test oi God's word and which not alone ?ecelvo tho very elect but aro swoop ing Into their vortex the son* and daughters of tho saints of God. Any thing, no matter bow esthetic or moral ly elevating or professedly religious, that measures not according to this word, should be torn down, (c) But Asa was constructive as well as de structive for he built again "the altar of Jehovah." 2. The People's Part, vv. 10-15. (a) They obeyed and gathered together at Jerusalem, at the proper time and tho place, b) They "offered sacrifice unto the Lord." Heretofore their of* j tarings had been to their selfishness ' or to strange gods. Their gift was a j costly one and the Lord's treasury la always a standard whereby to meas ure the work of grace In the hearts of bis people, (c) They made another covenant "to seek tho Lord." (Pa. 105:8, 4; Amos 6:4, 8). Those who seek him find him (Pe. 14:2). To seek ! him Is pleasing to him, but It must be as theirs, "with all tholr soul." We find God in Christ (John 14:6; I John 6:20). Whosoever sought him not were punished, even so will those be who now turn from him (John 16:8, 9; Matt. 26). (d) They gave public testimony of their determination (v. 14). Lo.td protestations are not al ways permanent. Conclufion. Though Asa had a parental handicap (I Kings 15:18) and lived in a corrupt court still he yielded to the teaching of God's word and thereto** wrought a great refor mation. Recognising \ he source of power in bis own life Asa taught the people the word of God, to sc?k God and to keep his commandments. Asa'a reformatiez was in reality a religious revival aaV such is the only kind that has any ptrmanoncy. In tho time of testing Asa (1) went to God for help; (2) pleaded the cause of God and the honor of his name; (8) went out to fight, trusting in God. Revival heights and experience* bless us evermore, a new light shines in our dairy lite, the level of life is higher'and the ideals of men and of communities are more noble and ex alted. No one can work his heat without enthusiasm, and revivals provide both inspiration and enthusiasm. Asm was freed from invasions for twenty years after this exr-Mionce.
