THE REV. JA3T0N NOBLE PIERCE.
Theme: Christ's Example.
Brooklyn. N. Y.?At the Puritan I
Congregational Church the new pas- :
tor, the Rev. Jason Noble Pierce,
preached Sunday morning on "The I
Examples of Christ." He said: My
subject this morning is found in John
13:15: "For I have given you an example
that ye should do as I have
done to you." If you put that right
in its setting it would be natural to
wonder whether the example Jesus
gave involves the girding of the towel
and the taking of the basin and performing
the service of love that He
fr\y? TJio icrnnloc TtrViofhpr

His esamnle is literal in its setting.
It is not strange that certain branches
of the church have in different times
held that His esamnle was to be taken
literally; that He instituted an ordinance
as truly as the ordinance of
baptism or the Lord's supper. And
so, even down to the present day,
there are some churches that literally
believe in the washing of the feet as
a religious act. From 1330 to 1630
the sovereigns of England were accustomed
to literally carry out this
example of the Lord, and indeed down
to the present day it is not unusual
for the imperial ruler of Russia to
have the aristocracv seek outgoers
who are aged and infirm and helpless
and wash their feet as Jesus washed
the feet of His disciples. On every
Thursdav in Holy Week the Pope, not
In the simplicity that Jesus had. but
with great nomp and splendor, and in
the eyes of the multitudes on a high
platform where he can be seen by all,
washes the feet of twelve of the old
est men that ran be found. But the
natural ouery is. why do it once a
year, if it is really an example to be
followed, and whv does only one person
follow it instead of everybody?
you and me? And if you turn back
to your orieinal testament you find
the words "like a?"?"that ye should
do like *?s I have done for you," and
yon realize that J>sus is not instituting
an ordinance, but He is. by a loving
and kind a^t. of ministry, teaching
an ideal and teacbiner it by example.
He micht have talked about it
and the words would have gone in one
ear and out of the other, but no one
of those present could ever forget His
example, and I venture to sav that.
??e lnnf nc hp did
In his last day he still felt the influence
cf the Master's teaching as
stronely as he did on the day when
the Master washed his feet.
Jesns' whole life is an example, is
It not? We find other peonle that are
examples. I can turn to the Old Testament
and studv Job, and say that
he was an examnle of jfcitience. or to
the life of Abraham, and say that he
Is a perfect example of faith. I turn
to impetuous Peter, and I say there
is a man of fervor: or to John, and
see the nerfect example of John, the
loving disciple, and wonder if we
shall ever grow into the love of John.
These men are examples in part, in
some things, in one or a few characteristics,
but Jesus was a perfect example?complete.
If you are speaking
of faith. He is nerfect; if of patience.
He is nerfect: if you sneak of
fervor, or of love, or of humility, of
dignity, or of nower. or of any qual
ity of the heart, you find that Jesus is
perfect, the one supreme, nerfect example.
You and I know It is one of
our human failings to look at people
and imitate them. How quick the
child is to discern. Did you never see
a little girl who spoke not only the
same words that her mother did. but
with just the same intonation? If
the mother says a thing with a little
sharpness, so does the daughter. I
think nothing in all this world is so
auick to discern the things they see as
a little child, and not only to discern
them, but to imitate them. If Jesus
had handed down His Sermon on the
Mount just as a document given by
an unseen hand, it never would have
had the resonance, the clearness and
the power that it has when we see it
coming from the lips of the Man
whom we almost can see because His
followers really did see Him. You do
not take any reasoning of Jesus apart
from Himself. You and I need to un
derstand Jesus, and need to follow
His example, because other people are
following our example. Here is a little
boy in the Sunday-school, and the
teacher says, "John, you ought to
grow up into a true, noble manhood,
and be an example for others." John
cannot help being an example. I cannot
stand here this morning and say
vou ought to be examples; you are,
and you cannot get away from it.
You may not want people to look at
you, but you cannot shut their eyes.
There is not a person here this morning
who is not, unconsciously as well
as consciously, leading the thoughts
and impulses of other people. You
are examples. "What kind of examples
are you?
What kind of an example are we
Christian people? In think one of the
most wondeful men was Paul. He
wrote to the Galatians, and he said:
"Brethren, I beseech you be as I am."
Now a good many of you are looking
at me and saying: "Here is our. new
pastor. I wonder what kind of a man
he is really going to prove to be."
"What kind of a man would you think
I am if I should say in utter seriousness:
"Members of Puritan Church,
I beseech you be as I am. Look it
me, behold me. Be as I am." Why,
that is what the apostle wrote to his
congregation. He sent another letter
to the Philippians, in which he said:
"Those things wftich ye have both
learned and received and heard and
seen in me, do; and the God of peace
shall be with,you." Is there a school
teacher here that would dare to say:
"II you oniy ao wnai your xeacner
does; if you only look at my life and
follow my example, the God of peace
will be with you." In th:ee of his
epistles Paul wrote: "Be followers
of me." What a presumptuous man!
Is there a father in this audience that
wishes his son to be just like him?
Or is th?re a mother that wishes her
littie child that God has given her, to
be just like her? God knows that
every parent says: "Oh, that my child
may be better than I am." What,
then, is the secret of this man's wonderful
courage? You will find it in
what he said to the Corinthians: "Be
ye followers of me, even as 1 am also
of Christ," and he dared to say it, and
he was right, because he knew that
his life was close to God.
The first time 1 preached in this
pulpit several weeks ago i went out
the next day from this city to a neighboring
place and visited the homes of
people who traveled extensively, and
I talked with the mistress of that
mansion who had spent some time in
personally visiting the people who
took parts in the Passion Play at
Oberammergau. She did not go to the
play, but she went afterward in their
homes, and I shall never forget the
incidents she related. She went to
the home of the man who took the
part of Jesus Christ. She saw his wire
first, awl after making known her
errand the husband was summoned,
and this woman said that the very
moment he entered the room she
could not repress the feeling that she
was in tbo presence of Jesus. His
ViJe* Tt?1> rv m rmn OV
wuuit; ai?prcuaiac, mo u uuio uuvuuvi
conveyed the lifelike impression o!
Jesus. And this not when he was on
exhibition, but when he was summoned
from his workshop into the
house, without knowing that anyone
was there or why he came. And the
wife told my hostess that she believed
her husband was absolutely perfect:
that he had so studied the life of
.Tesus: that he had so put his heart
into every part of it; that he had so
striven to perfect himself in playing
the part of Jesus, not only on the
cross, but off the cross, and that he
had. so far as she knew in the intimacy
of family life, mastered life and
overcome every temptation, and in 11
earnestness and humility she said she
did not know one single thing in all
I his life that was not just as she would
j like to have it. Husband, can your
wife say that? It shows, dear friends,
I the possibility of living so near Christ
that His example and life, not in its
srlorified nerfection. but in the pure
uess of heart, shall enable us to put
every sin under our feet. Now,
friends, if it is possible to follow
Jesus' example as literally as that,
is it not necessary to riie to it when
so many people are following your
example?
Why did Jesus wash His disciples'
feet? Not because it was necessary,
nor because it was an Oriental custom.
I think He washed their feet
because He saw that the disciples
were too proud to do it for one another.
It takes a manly character to
do a menial task. I fancy that if we
tried to imitate some of Jesus' examples,
we would find that it would be
better to go apart into a mountain
and pray and come down to the original
channels of life and love
strengthened before vfe could do the
acts of service that Jesus did. I believe
that He did it because He saw
that His disciples did not yet understand
or comprehend the ideal that
He came to establish. What is the
law, the ideal, -the essential of God's
kingdom? I know?that some would
say that it is love. That is the right
answer if you understand what love
is. It is not merely a love tha+. contemplates
and does nothing; that is
well disposed and stons there. If you
think that you are obeying His commandment
to tove your neighbor
when you do notrhate him, you have
not got the ideal of Jesus. Love that
is love at all finds its expression in
service. The mother toils late into
the night that her boy may be neatly
dressed and educated. That is the
mother's love. If God only loved us
by only looking on us complacently,
deliver me from that love. But what
wonders hath He not wrought; what
hath He not done for us that we
might have life, joyful lives' an<i useful
lives? If you are going to love,
von mnet qsrvo anrt T venture to com
mend that definition of service which
says that it is the fundamental rule of
God's service. But the disciples did
not catch the idea. Do you wonder
that Jesus said to them. "Whosoever
will be great among you, let him be
your minister, and whosoever will be
chief among you, let him be your
servant." In His parables He taught
the idea of service, but though the j
disciples listened they did not seem j
to comprehend, and so on that last i
night Jesus did something they did j
comprehend and clinched all His ;
teaching by girding Himself and ministering
to them, and said, "I have
given you an example."
Let me close by calling your attention
to the last part of the text: "That
ye should do as I have done to you."
Are you doing what Jesus did, or is
it only contemplation? Are you carrying
out His example, or have you
encountered some obstacle that is too
hard to do? In the great galleries the
artists sit and strive to reproduce the
masterpieces, and so in the gallery of
life you and I are sitting at the feet
of Jesus. Are we reproducing perfectly?
He is the example. Are we
doing as He did?
The Interpreter of Life.
Jesus is the interpreter of life. He
holds the secret of the life which is,
as well as of the life which is to come.
We don't know how to live, and we
will go on blundering and wearing
ourselves out until we take Him as
our exemplar.
The fever of life is the result of our
experiment with the things which |
ought to make for our happiness. |
Somehow ww cannot get the right !
proportion, and instead of receiving j
joy and peace and a larger life from
our use of the mixture, we find our- |
selves weak and feverish, and sick at j
heart. Let us go to Him, and take j
His life for our example. Let us j
note what things He counted precious
and what things He rejected as harmful
to the soul.
Let us accept Him r.s the way, and
the truth, and the life, and He will
enter the room in which we are now
lying sick of the fever of life, and He
will take us by the hand and lift ua
up, and fill us with new life for
service to His glory and salvation of
our fellow men.?Rev. Percy T. Orton,
in Pittsburg Christian Advocate.
Into Harbor.
If you reach Heaven, you will come
in as I have often seen vessels come I
into the harbor of New York, with j
the storm-tide anchor swinging
proudly at the prow. "There are
ships," said the eloquent Melville,
"that never go down in life's tempests.
They shall be in no peril when
the last hurricane shall sweep earth
and sea and sky, and when the fury
is overpast, and the light that knows
no night breaks gloriously forth, they
shall be found on tranquil and crystal
waters, resting beautifully upon their
shadows." These are they who have
been piloted by the Holy Spirit; these j
are the faithful ones whose soul was '
anchored to Jesus Christ.?Theodore j
L. Cuyler, D.' D.
Ail Important Distinction.
The self-denial required by Jesus
does not lie in seeking needless suffering
'* ir ourselves, but in bearing
huL-Jiy and submissively what should
come in the discharge of Christiaa
duty. "Let a man," says Jesus, "deny
himself and take up his cross"?the
cross God is pleased to send him, and
no cthe"/.?Scottish Reformer.
Thy Last Thought.
Practice to make God thy last

and thy first thought when thou wakest;

THE TEMPERANCE PROPAGANDA
CONCERTED ATTACK ON DRINK
WINNING ALL ALONG LINE.
llie Buried Laugh That Alcohol Digs
Up?That is Alcohol's Dangerous
Power?It Drives Away Sorrow
ami Brings Hack Laughter.
The following remarkable editorial
was written by Arthur Brisbane for
the New York Evening Journal:
A woman walked along the north
side of Twonty-ei'ghtli street, near
Fourth avenue, at noon yesterday.
Her walk was a little unsteady, her
carriage not quite natural. She was
neither youny nor old?perhaps fifty,
perhaps only thirty?one of the many
women of thirty made to look old by
poverty and worry.
The woman's dress was black,
faded and rusty.
Her face was a good, honest face:
it. too. was faded. Her head wa?
bare, and the hair was gray. The
hand that looivel^ held her skirt was
wrinkled, the veins stood out. Many
a hard day's work that> hand had
done.
The woman looked old. But her
manner, her actions were for the moment
those of a young woman.
Her walk was a little unsteady.
Only that walk betrayed the woman's
condition at first. As she walked she
looked about her gavly, like a girl oi
fourteen. She walked along humming
to herself. She dropped her
skirt for a second, and, bending far
over, seized the dress imuatiently and
lifted it, with a laugh Of almost genuine
mirth, smiling at the passers by
as she did so.
That laugh told the story.
Men passing by had glanced carelessly
at the faded working woman.
They had scarcely noticed the unsteady
walk. Fatigue might have
caused that unsteadiness.
But everybody who heard the careless.
ringing laugh turned to look.
And immediately every man knew
that the unhappy woman had been
drinking to excess. If she had been
young or well dressed. if her clothing
or her face,had been that of a happy
woman with a decent chance in life,
the laughter would have seemed
quite natural, it would have caused
no surprise.
But coming from that, faded face,
everybody kn^ew that the laughter had
behind it some cause other than natural
mirth.
Some who looked at the woman
laughed; others scowled ax her contemptuously;
a few looked with pity
and sympathy.
Laughing, the womar gathered up
her skirt, looking abouf with her poor
faded eyes, hoping for sympathy and
friendly appreciation of the little incident
that seemed ridiculous and
mirthful to her poor brain. And
llien, unsteady but able to take care
of herself, and, let us hope, able to
get home safely, she passed on out of
sight.
Of those that saw her, a majority
probably said later, "I saw a drunken
woman this afternoon," and said
nothing more. This newspaper would
like to say a little more. And we
would like to say it especially, and
earnestly, to the prohibitionists, the
moral reformers, and the other good,
well-meaning men and women that
fight drunkenness throughout the
country.
Drunkenness is repulsive; it is utterly
shocking and dreadful in a woman
exposed to public contempt on the
street.
Drunkenness should be fought.
Everybody engaged in the fight is
doing a noble work, and a useful
work, when the fight is made intelligently.
Alcohol does for its victims certain
things. And those things must be I
done for the victims, on a higher and 1
better scale, if drunkenness is to be
conquered.
That poor woman was born like
other human beings, with laughter iD
her soul. But how deeply that laugh- j
far- hod Vioon hnriofl nrnhahlv frnm
her early childhood! \
It was buried under worry, undei
poverty, under hard work. Long
hours, worry over children, worry of
every kind and sickness and suffering
had buried laughter, mirth, cheerfulness
deep out of sight.
Alcohol dug up the almost forgotten
laugh and brought it to the
surface. And the poor, tired, faded
face, for a second at least, regained
part of the cheerful old expression
that ought never to have left it.
If you want to fight alcohol, try to
do in a noble way what alcohol does
in an ignoble way.
Alcohol makes the poor forget their
poverty ior a moment.
Fight it by relieving the poor of
their poverty.
It's Local Option or Prohibition.
But it is as certain as the coming
of another sunrise that if the liquor
interests continue to deny to American
citizens powers that are theirs
by right, perpetuate their alliance
with corruption in every municipality
and every Legislature and persist in
thwarting the will? of majorities expressed
at the polls, they will finally
force all elements to unite, not on
local option, but on prohibitory measures
so extreme that their traffic, in
stead of being regulated, will be
swept from the face of the Nation.?
Philadelphia North American, April
3, 1908.
A Woman's Movement.
Prohibition in the South is to a
certain extent a woman's movement.
In the campaign in Alabama it was
the women,the mothers and the wives
and the children of the men who supported
the saloon with their earnings,
who marched in the. procession and
stood all day at the polls to see that
their husbands, sons and fathers voted
vight.
Temperance Notes.
A noteworthy feature of the antisaloon
crusade in the West, as was
the case in the South, is the active
participation of women.
The progress of the prohibition
wave through the States of the Middle
West is not less remarkable than
its sweep of the South.
The fighr against alcohol is world
wide. In German universities, even,
the relation of beer and "brain efficiency''
is the subject of earnest experiment.
Prohibition laws now aifect fully
33,000,000 of our population as
against a meagre 3,500,000 in 1870!
Brewer Fabst should not worry.
There will still be plenty ot 'temptation
to evil" after the law h'is done
away with all the brewers.
So thero is little intimation that
the advocates of drink have ever considered
thoroughly the "moral side"

The New Shoe.
The tip is more pointed.
The vamp is shorter.
The wing tip is ubiquitous.
The Cuban heel is seen most frequently.
Tan is the most popular for young
people.
Gun metal is the selection of older
ones.
Ooze is the newest leather.
As its name suggests, it is porous
looking.
Dull gray suede holds its own.
Surplice Waists.
The surplice waists are made gay
with folds of silk or crepe. And the
taffeta gowns are made up with folds
in contrasting colors. Very neat combinations
are obtained in this manner.
The fold sets off the gown and shows
up its color beautifully. Three folds,
[ respectively of pink, lavender and j
white, finished the neck and sleeves j

over a lingerie slip of champagne
lace.

Parasol In New Design.
One of the newest parasols to finish
a charming summer costume is of
white china silk embroidered all
around the edge with sprays of thistle
done in lichtest mauve and palest
greens.
Embroidered Coats.
The newest coats are cut with the
long panels down each side of the
front and each side of the back, which
are heavily embroidered with braid
and handwork. A remarkable thing
about these is that they extend almost
to the knees, while the middle of the
back and the sides are quite short,
the slit extending above the waist.
Idra For Braiding.
Many suits are made with quite
plain cutaway coats in which slits
have been made on both sides of the
front and through which braid soutache
has been run. The same idea
is also used ass a decoration for cuffs,
and tne slits are best buttonholed,
so that the braid will not tear the
material. The end of the braid is
mitered and finished in a silk tassel.

One of the smartest additions to

Dressing Jacket.
Such a pretty little dressing jacket
as this one cannot fail to find its welcome.
It is dainty and attractive, it
is absolutely simple and it is peculiar

In the illustration it is made of
white batiste trimmed with embroid- j i

be found desirable. i

Lithographing Stone House.
A plain, plastered stone house
about fifty yards from the ancient
City Hall of Nuremberg, Germany,
has nothing to distinguish it from
the other old houses of the neighborhood
except that it is built of
lithographic stone, worth from six
to twenty-one cents a pound. So
lithographers who go to Nuremberg
wander from the worn tourist trails
to see the wonder.
The house was built about 1680,
nearly 100 years before Alois Senefelder,
the discoverer of lithograhy,
was born. Andreas Lichtenstein, who
built it, took the stone easiest to
get and secured it for the trouble
of carrying it away. Now the material
in the building is worth about
$4000.
The present Andreas Lichenstein,
a descendant of the man who built
the house, has said "Nein" about
once a month for the last twenty
years to speculators who want to
buy his home and tear it down for
the stone. It is his home and was
that of his forefathers, and he refused
to part with it. So lithographers
with thoughts of rising prices
look and sigh.
Lithographic stone is found in
commercial quantities only in Bavaria.

The Earth's Magnetism.
The old saying, "as true as the
needle to the pole," is no longer a
safe comparison. Only in a few
places on the earth's uurface does
the compass ,point exactly to the
north. What is more, the spot toward
which its northward end is directed?the
so-called "magnetic
pole"?itself slowly shifts. For this
reason it has been necessary to sup- i
ply the mariner with fresh charts
every few years, indicating the:
amount of variations in the needle
on which he must count. A means
for the correction of these charts
is supplied from two sources. Occasionally
a ship captain will make
an observation of a star while at isea
to determine whether his compasses
are all right He thus discovers
sometimes that his chart Is in error.
Further help to accurate information
Is supplied by the magnetic observations
of the world of which there
must be about a score. One of the
things measured at such places is the
strength of the force in the earth
that controls the compass. It was
recently noticed, for instance, that
this iorce is more than twice as great
at a place in Burmah (Taungoo) as
at Sitka, Alaska.?New York Tribune.

YOU'RE TOO THIN. |
Even Slight Catarrhal Derangements
of the Stomach Produce Acid Fermentation
of the Food.
i
Its Stomach Catarrh .
Some people arc thin and always re
main tnin, irom temperamental reasons.
Probably in 6nch cases nothing
can be done to change this personal
peculiarity.
But there are a large number of peo- ,
pie who get tnin, or remain thin, who f
naturally would be plump and fleshy
but for some digestive derangement. "
Thin people lack in adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue is chiefly composed of
fat.
Fat is derived from the oily constituents
of food. '
The fat-making foods are called by
the physiologist, hydrocarbons. This
class of foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digested in
the duodenum, the division of the all- ,
mentary canal Just below the stomach.
The digestion of fat is mainly, if not
wholly, the work of the pancreatic
juice. This juice is of alkaline reaction,
and is rendered inert by the addition
of acid. A hyperacidity of the
digestive fluids of the stomach passing '
down into the duodenum, destroys
the pancreatic fluid for digestive pur- 1
poses. Therefore, the fats are not digested
or emtlsifled, and the system is
deprived of its due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
The beginning of the trouble is a catarrhal
condition of the stomach which
causes hyperacidity of the gastric
juices. This hyperacidity is caused by
fermentation of food in the stomach. ?
When the food is taken into the stomach,
if the process of digestion does
| not begin immediately, acid fermenta*
tion will take place. This creates a
hyperacidity of the stomach Juices
whtoh in their turn prevent the pan-- . /
creatlc digestion of the oils, and the
emaciation results.
A dose of Peruna before each meal
hastens the stomach digestion. . By
hurrying digestion, Peruna prevents
fermentation of the contents of the . 4'
stomach, and the pancreatic juice is thus '
preserved in its normal state. It then
only remains for the patient to eat a
sufficient amount of fat-forming foods,
and the thinness disappears and plump- ,, ?
ness takes its place.
