A London jeweler has made a coilect tion of ancient forks used in England which show some little known facts about the table.manners of a few centuries ago. The forks, which are of solid silver, date from the sixteenth century, in many cases me designs in all this time have scarcely varied in any detail, and the forks look like those which might be bought to-day. The old forks were a great luxury in their time and were only used by the aristocracy. That Went Fishing. An extraordinary 'incident was witnessed recently by a sportsman at Bicester. Noting a party of five robins foraging about among the pebbles in ?he bed of a small stream, from which they constantly flew onto a neighboring wall carrying some live object in their beaks, he followed a bird to its perch. Kicking about on the top of the wall he found a small stickleback. Retiring a few yards he then keptf watch, and found that the birds captured their ?rey and held it cro?sjfase7after the fa6hiop of a kingfisher./ But they made, no attempt to kill their victims before eating them, as the kingfisher does.?'

A Lovely Slipper. One lovely slipper made up to match a dinner dress of delicate pink crepe de chine is of suede. This prettiest of leathers fits the foot with exquisite correctness, and the matt finish recommends it to the refined taste. The toe is in a prettily rounded point (not too sharp) and the heel is the graceful French shape, rather than the very tall form of the true Louis XV. At dips low as to the vamp, displaying the instep of the pretty silk stocking of exactly the same color. Toised ? .. the front is a small butterfly how in pink liberty iilk.

Stylish Street Hat. Picture bats are good style with the plainest frocks and for any time, except traveling or for outdoor sports. Brown more than any other color is seen in the large cavalier hats, but the new rich fall greens, that sometimes shade down to brown, or up to tea rose, are also used. Black is less used than in years, partly because any one bat can be smartly worn with any frock, and. partly because black has been used too much. , The Chiffon Itache.

" ) ' A SEEMON FOR SUNDAY AN ELOQUENT DISCOURSE ENTITLED VKNOWINC THE TRUTH." , The C?T. Cornelius 'Woelfkin Dwell* 011 the Condition of Learning Spiritual Truth as Cald Down l>y Jcsns?OpenMlndedness is tbe First Qualification Bbooklyn, N. Y.?In the Greene Ave[ inue Baptist Church Sunday morning the , minister, the Rev. Cornelius Woelfkin, ' preached the sermon. Mr, Woelfkin's test 1 >-as from Deuteronomy xxix:29: "'The se! cret things belong unto the Lord, our God, , but the things that are revealed oelong unto ns and to our children, that we may do all the -words,of this law. He said: i A noted' astronomer once said^ "I have ? searched the 6tars, but i una no uoa. a noted philosopher said, "If there is as infinite, personal God, He is unknowable." f Materialistic science and rational philosophy have formulated the creed ot agnosticism, viz.: that God is uifkuown and unknowable. It sounds conservative, modest and wise. But it- is not really new. ' One of the ancients wrote in the long ago. "Canst thou, by searching, find out God: Canst thou know the Almighty unto peri fection? Zophar, the Naamathite, was a clever agnostic. The Hebrew lawgiver writes, "The secret things belong unto the Lord our God." If God be the Infinite. Eternal and Absolute, it is impossible to comprehend and explain Him. There must always be di1 mensions of mystery unknown and unknowable in Him. The astronomer never expects to find the vails of the universe. Theife is always the unknown beyond. If space and time stagger the imagination. J can we ever hope to Dring the eternal God | completely witnin the range of, human ! > conception? We are all agnostics. Even t Christians worship at the altar of the su, per knowable God. It is no discredit to the theist that he cannot tell the day of ' God's birth. We need not distress ouri selves because we cannot walk about God and know His diameter and circumference, i He is unknowable. 1 But because we cannot know all, shall we rest content to know nothing? The scientist is aware that he can never know it all. Does he therefore break his instru* ? ? I ments ana content juuitseu. iu auiuc iU norance? He knows in part. He will know more, though he never knows it all. So, concerning God, there are things that. may be known. Tne myste -y of the unknown is the very charm of eternity. The ages will ever clothe themselves with new garments of mystery. How may we know God? God is a spirit and must be spiritually knovsrn. John Rake, speaking of the spectroscope, calls it "an addition to our senses." All our inventions are extensions to our senses. There is auto-seeing, auto-hearing, autofeeling. Tyndale said, "The silence of the forest at noonday is agitated with eound, if we could only hear it." Thye are some things telescopically discerned, others, microscopically and spectroscopically. Without these they are not discerned at all. Why does one man only glance at a picture, and pass on, while another will study it by the hour? Why will some people leave the music hall, while others are held spellbound by the symphony? Because seme things are artistically discerned and others musically. There must be the subjective faculty to appreciate objective gen.us. Why do some men go through iife without any sense of reverence, worship and prayer, while others bow in humility and adoration to one whom they call God? Because God is spiritually discerned. The natural man receiveth not the things of Godj"" neither can he know them. He is lacking the eouI's telescope, microscope, spectroscope, etc. Natuial devices cannot discover a spiritual God. The study of man himself presents a faints analogy of this truth. Science studies the human body; articulates the skeleton; knows tlie nervous system; explains organization. But does the anatomist discover the v "ole man? Does he find that sovereign?the will, the magistrate?the conscience, the artist?the imagination, the orchestra?the emotions, the librarian?the memory? They are all there, but the instruments of physical dissection do not discover then. They are mentally discerned. When -spiritual men, as sucj, pronounce upon physical science, they become fools. And when materialists. a3 euch, pronounce upon spiritual things they likewise turn out folly. One qualification cannot constitute authority upon all Itings. It is sometimes said that religion speaks in a language cf its own?a foreign tongue. This must be so in the nature of the case. Every new idea demands the cartnent of a new word or phrase. Every sciencc creates its own nomenclature. We might find a hundred Volumes written in our native tonuue and yet not understand what is written. Spiritual realities must express themselves in spiritual terminology. Instead of quarreling with tho introduction of new terms, we should as true students learn their*meaning and so widen our apprehensions. The condition of learning spiritual truth 33 laid down by Jesus. "He that wil!eth to do His will shall i:now tae teacmng." (There must be right attitude first, and ithen the experiment of action. Opeq,mindpdness i? the first qualification for apprehension. Prejudice distorts and blinds the judgment. It is the chief factor an cur limitations. It is the handicap upon Jionest examination and experiment. 'Prejudice shut the. theologians out of natural science for years. Prejudice is shutting the materialists out of religious science /to-day. The whole universe as governed (by law. Let a man obey the laws of na(ture end nature will unfold its mysteries to him. Let a man put himself in align-, ncnt with spiritual realities, and the spiritual world will discover itself to him. "He that eometh to God must believe that He is. and that He is the rewarder of them Itfcr.t diligently seek Eim." Tiere must be action, the test of ei virion t. Here is a stumbling block. Mer> have theic^own wills ar.d hesitate and halt f.t doing the will of G6d. The chief difficulties conccrning, religion do not rice out iof intellectual embarrassment so much as a failure in attitude and action. .Yet without these men cannot knew. The means of knowing are twofold. St. -Tr*V*r-? roro *rP)r*+. toViipIi 1X7 f* hflVA VlP.ird. !that which we have seen and handled with mur hands dcclaro wc -unto you." There is iir:t the ue3sa~e of tradition?that which ,we have heard. There i3 tradition in ecience. Some thinc3 have been worked out, tested and proven. They are accepted as ariomatic by the consensus of all students. Who thinks to question the roundness of the earth or its notion round the cun? Few of us ha're proved it; we accept it on scientific tradition. We do the same an all. scientific study. Tradition is the foundation already laid, and we build thereon. To cxclude the authority of tradition would ch~ek all progress. So religion has its traditions. Some things conie to us with the ''sterling" mark of the centuries. He who discredits all religious tradition ignores the past and begins anew. This makes the difference between the nan of faith and the skeptic. The man of faith receives what has been proven and builds thereon. The skeptic only examines the foundations, sometimes without even laying new ones. But there must be personal experience' ftlso. When Morse asked Congress for an oppropriation of $30,000 for his telegraph venture the committeeman having the de? tiding vote was undecided. Mr. Morse took him to his hotel; showed him some miles of wire. He bade him go into a distant room and there experiment with the instrument according to the code. He returned and voted for the appropriation, saying, "I have seen?I have handled the instrument, and it will do what is claimed for it." And any man may experiment with the realities of our religion und test its claims to comfort, wisaom. peace, rest, hope. love, prayer, etc. And only when we thus.know will wc be effective witnesses of truth. Jesus said. "We spenk thai, we do know and testify that we have seen." With such knowledge the known becomes the key* ox the unknown and leads us into deeper knowledge. The purpose of learning to know God is to obtain the life eternal. When Kepler, the astronomer, after many .failures, finally discovered the laws of planetary motion he fell upon his knees and cried: VI thank Thee, 0 God, that I am thinking Thy thoughts ever after Thee." This knowledge made him'partner with the thought oI the etcjna) So every truth esper imentally discernc-d puts us into Tiartnei ship -with God. We learn to think Hi thoughts; to will His will: to lore wit His love; to live His life. And His is lif eternal. Therefore .Tesus savs. "To knoi Thee the only true God. And .Tesus Chrif whom Thou hast sent, this is life eternal.' The range of thinirs thus knowable i very wide. Only a few of them may h suggested. We may know the forgivenes of our sins. We are made conscious c our sinfulness through the exercise of ou conscience and our inability to overtak what we know to be the ideal. But whe we accept the overtures of divine grace au yield to the incoming and inworking c Wrtitr Snirif mp PTnerienee a neac and power which are the subjective ev donees of our being loosed from our sim This is the first thing in Christian know edire. Next: "we know that we have passe from death unto Jife." Sncli a transitio is made on all planes of life. A. new cl j mate helps some men to pass from deat to life in body. Education enables men t pass from death to life mentally. Societ sometimes causes men to pass from deat to life morally. The development of later srenius makes men pass from death unt life. So the touch of God's spirit awaker new ideals. affections and possibilities, an the love of a spiritual society evidences passage from death unto life. "We know that all things work toeeth< for good to them that love-God." This : not self-evident, as we take a narrow vie' of mortal life. But when we see the wid< Tanges learn it is so. There may be e: periefrces which darken the scene an plunge the judgment into nanic. .Tosep while being led a slave to Eeynt could n< understand this. Nor could Moses. Da: iel and the pronhets in the day of iria But afterward they saw it to be so. Tl glory which Moses saw was not some lu trous form, bqt rather that all the pa: history was transfigured with God's pre ence and favor. It is the backward loc that gives us this assurance. "We kno that if our earthly house of this bodv 1 dissolved we have a building of God * * eternal in the heavens." That is, we kno that we nave an immortal destiny 01 etc nal life. Subjectively we know that eve: appetite has its satisfaction. ' Hunger su gests food and thirst argues for wat^r. God creates a fin on the ^sh He makes i element for it to swim in. If He iashioi a wing, He supplies the air for it to fly i Surely these lower appetites nre not gral fied only that the deeper and nobler ms be disappointed. And objectively, "Chri hath brought life and immortality to ligl through the gospel." His resurrection sa isfies our desires and becortics prophetic < our destinv. Let us study earnestly tl truth of God with a view to doing H will, and we slrall know in part now ai more perfectly by and by. Preacher* Mast Deliver God'* Messaje?

We hear of preachers wl would have the Btorxs of the virgin birt the resurrection and the ascension, eithi eliminated from the Gospel record, or i etherealized as to be denuded, of all the historic sicnaficance. They have no reasons save their dislil for the supernatural. But their neare approach to a reason is the fact of tl silence of the Gospels concerning the: great -things. Our Lord, it is said, nevi mentions His own miraculous birth; son evangelists omit the story. St. Paul ne er mentioned it, and this is caid'to 1 "evidence to the contrary."
