Sarah Bernhardt, who is supposed to be something of an artist as well as an actress, was recently called upon in one of her marvelous creations to enact the role of a sculptor, and to model a certain bust in view of , the audience. This fairly electrified the critics, but when going into rhapS sodies over the technical skill in handling the clay which Mme. Bernhardt exhibited they showed that they knew little of the artistic tricks of actors and actresses; as a matter of fact, she does nothing of the kind. The bust is modeled and baked, and over it Is placed damp clay of the same color. This the talented actress merely pulls off, exposing the beautifully modeled head underneath.

BRITTON, Ph. D.. Entomologist, Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station.) A brief note was printed in the last report of this station regarding the occurrence of the leopard moth in Connecticut. Since this note was published considerable evidence has been brought to our attention of serious i damage to shade trees, especially j elms, by this insect. Pruning of the ! trees and especially the removal of | dead branches reveals the tunnels of : the leopard moth larva, which is a ! borer in the branches and trunks of many species of broad-leaved trees. Several specimens of the adult moths have been captured in New Haven, but it was not known until recently that the insect is doing much injury to the trees in Connecticut. The leopard moth is a European pest, and like many other very injurious insects that we now have to fight, was accidentally introduced into this country, being first noticed in June, 1SS1, at Hoboken, N. J. Three years later Dr. E. B. Southwick found it injuring trees in Central park, New Vnrlr nlfv nnH in 1501 nrnnnrnroH it one of the worst insect pests attacking shade trees. The leopard moth was soon found in other cities near New York, and in 1907 Mr. A. H.

Colorado Agricultural College.) The history of the settlement of Western Kansas and Western Nebraska shows that the people who kept milch cows were able to hold their claims and make themselves homes, while many of their neighbors who refused to be in partnership with the cow fail-id. This has been found true of the early settlers of Colorado and other states. Some people are able to get along without cows, but the chances are against the person who makes the attempt. It seems to be one of the foundation principles of agriculture that 110 sys-1 tern can long be followed at a profit j which does not make provision for re- j turning to the land in some form the I elements of fertility taken from it by ! the crops. So no system of farming I has ever been successful for any great j length of time in any climate which | does not include the keeping of live ! stock as one of its important features. The successful man, be he manager of a farm or a factory, is the man who plans to turn waste products Into value. Kaffir, milo, sorghum, millet, stock beets, stock melons, the straw from grain, corn stalks and all other rough feed which is produced on the farm is of a nature that market for it is extremely limited. And some variety of this rough feed is produced in large Quantities in every community every year. So much is produced that if the growers tried to sell it all directly for cash, it would not bring enough to pay for hauling it to market. As much is produced forty miles from a railroad as in the community joining th? shipping station.

During 1909 the writer was informed of its occurrence in Providence, R. I., and also that many of the fine elms of Caml "dge, Mass.. were threatened with destruction by this insect. The leopard moth is reported by Professor Smith as occurring as far south as Long Branch, N. J. As It first appeared in Hoboken, N. J., it will be seen that like many other European insects introduced into this country it has spread northward much more rapidly than in any other direction. The position of the caterpillars tunneling in the branches, especially when they are in the tops of large trees, render them exceedingly difficult to reach. If the trees are pruned or otherwise gone over systematically ever*year or two the burrows will certainly be detected and can be treated by injecting a few drops of carbon disulphide from an oil can into each and closing the opening with clay, putty, grafting wax or newly made hard soap. The poisonous fumes penetrate throughout the galleries and will ltill the borers therein. Wilting branches indicate the presence of the borers and should be removed and destroyed. All twigs and limbs that break off during storms should be gathered and burned, thus destroying many of the borers in their tunnels. All female moths should be destroyed wherever found. >IT AND SAND EL t , j ./ ?- ~-i? ~* ??~ J ? ~~ *vT _ S.i 3 1 1 ^ inches In diameter, depending on speed and size of pulley on engine, This pulley should have not less than four inches in face and should not run more than 100 revolutions per minute.

Classifying Dirty Eggs. Dirty eggs are grouped in three classes in a bulletin published by the department of agriculture, at Washington, as well as on the market. "Plain dirties" are (hose to which soil adheres; "stained," are those soiled by contact with damp straw or other material discoloring the shell; "smeared," are those covered with the contents of broken eggs. The government bulletin says the farmers are to blame for putting "plain dirties" and "stained" eggs upon the market, but that the "smeared" originate all along the route from the farmer's home to the consumer. Every farmer will learn much about egg production and the profit in poultry by asking the department of agriculture.

Try bush beans in hills and see whether you like the plan better than drills; that is, drop four or five beans at spaces of about eight inches. The advantage claimed is that better opportunity is afforded for tillage, as the hoe can be worked with ease about the hills. Fodder Corn. Fodder corn is the staple roughage for the man who milks cows, and when properly cured is a good substitute for ensilage. The silo, however, saves all the feed and the cows relish the ensilage better bccause it is more succulent. I The Sunday=School INTERNATIONAL LESSON COM. .

It was a trial of faith. These < disciples proved themselves to he dis- 1 ciples indeed.'by doing precisely what 1 the Master told them to do (v. 6). 1 Phis is the supreme test of disciple- 1 ship (Jno. 15:141. They found every- 1 thing just as Jesus said it would he (Luke 19:32). In putting their own < I garments on the colt for Jesus to .'it < I nnnn thcv nrnnlnimfid their OW11 3C- I < ceptance of Jesus as king (cf. 2 K. | : 9:13). Thus Jesus entered Jerusalem in literal fulfillment of Zecha- ' riah's prophecy (Zech. 9;9). Those 1 who protest against a literal interpre- 1 tation of prophecies as yet unfulfilled, i would do well to note carefully with ] what minute literalness Christ his ' ; fulfilled the prophecies that have be?:n ] fulfilled. The crowd as well as the I disciples proclaim Jesus king. The ] enthusiasm was tremendous (Jno. < 12:13). As they turned the corner ] of the Mount and Jerusalem rose te- j fore their view the people began to 1 rejoice and praise God. They sang i one of the Messianic psalms (Ps. 113: i 25, 26), and uttered like shouts. It 1 seemed out of place to the Pharisees j for them to so forget their dignity < and get so excited in Christ's service ] (Luke 19:'39, 40). Unfortunately 1 the enthusiasm of the people for ' Jesus was short-lived. But as short- i lived as their enthusiasm was it was ] more thorough-going and hearty asd | less calculating while it lasted than that of many modern professed Chris- t tianii. It is a beautiful sight to eee , people throwing the best they have s at Jesus' feet to pave the way for the J kingdom. But Jesus did not join in j the joy. He wept while others i shouted (Luke 19:41-44). All the j ? * nr* Trtfuc* ortfo"orl \TO I j Uliy VTttS Sill l cu as atouo *,v j j one causes such a commotion as Jesus ( in any city which He enters. Wher- j ever He goes there is a shaking up ? and a questioning and a division. I The q.uestion the people asked was an * important one. It was asked again j and again (comp. Luke 5:21; 7:49; ( 9:9). We do well to ask it, too. j "Who is this" that so mightily stirs r the hearts of men? The multitudes . replied: "This is the prophet." But j we have a better answer: "This is in- r deed the Son of God, the Saviour of , the World." ? II. Jesus Cleansing the Temple as j the Son of God, 12-14. A second time Jesus cleanse? the temple (Jno. 2:12- ! 17). The first cleansing had not proven permanent, nor did this, but i it expressed the mind of God and of j Christ. His mind is just the same to-day. When He looks at the build- J ing dedicated to the service of God , transformed from "a house of i prayer" into "a den of robbers," His anger waxes hot. All these tilings , He found in the temple were con- ; nected somehow with worship. They were sacrificial animals they were ] selling and buying. It was money to " trw *Vid .tCCc rin rr whirVl thpV W flffi ^ exchanging for the Roman coin. But : though it was ostensibly in the name of God, it was really for the sake of private gain. He cleansed the whole thing out. But suddenly there is a different scene, the blind and the lame draw nigh. How swift is the transformation from terrific indignation to gentlest ccmpcssion. We have men to-day who are fearless in their denunciation and mighty in their overthrow of evil entrenched in high places. "We have also men full of gentleness and love toward the un-1 fortunates. How seldom are these two opposite factors of moral strength found united in one man. But so it was with Jesus. "It pleased the (Father that in Him should all fullness dwell" (Col. 1:9). And we can be made full in Him (Col. 2:10, R. V.). The eyes that had blazed a moment before, as He looked upon those who had made His Father's house a den of robbers, now beamed with a gentleness and compassion that n-jver shone in other eyes. "He healed them." He is just the same to-day (Heb. 13:S). O, suffering one, come to Him; He will pity and Ho will heal. III. Jesus Criticised by the Ecclesiastics and Praised I y the Babes and Sucklings, 13-17. The chief priests and scribes "were sore displeased." Of course they were. Such are always displeased when any one gets any praise but them selves, and they are not happy when good is done unless their h?nds do it. The blessing upon the work in the church around the corner is a reflection upon themselves, and can't be tolerated. The offending party must bo destroyed 1 (comp. Luke is): 47). Alas, this . spirit is not dead yet. And alas . again, most of us have some of it in i ourselves. It's a thoroughly bad 1 leven. It murdered Christ. Envy lies at the root of it (com p. Jno. 11: < 47-50, 57; 12:10; Acts 4:1S-1S). But while the priests were sore d:s- ' pleased at the children's .praise. Jesus 1 was greatly pleased with it. He said 1 it was most scriptural. And He is ] pleased to-day when children's voices j raise their sweet, pure ho~nnnas to j Him. At the close of the busy, weary, < trying day He returns to the rest of the dear home in Bethany. < Meets Every Want. 1 rever yet found a Christian who was disappointed in Christ, although 1 I have found a great many who were disappointed in themselves.

Lonic-SufTering jloodncss, 33-39. This parable was spoken to the ptople (Luke 20:9). lesus emphasized the importance of :he parable by the first,word of v. 33. rhe form of the parable was suggested by Old Testament imagery (Ps. I 80:8-11; Is. 5:1, 2; Jer. 2:21). In r :he Old Testament the vineyard is the kingdom of God.1 which is no longer I identified with Israel, but taken away 'rem Israel and given to the Gentiles (v. 43). The householder represents 3od. By his digging the winepress, ?tc., is set forth the truth that he had lone for his vineyard everything that needed to be done, or .could be done (Is. 5:4). Each detail is significant, rhe fence about his vineyard was the law (Eph. 2:14). When God had limy emiup^eu nis viuejruiu ne ijul iu i in the hands of men (first of all [srael) and left the care of it to them. ? rhe husbandmen were the people of | [srael (v. 43). To them first of all 3od committed the charge of His 1 kingdom. To-day He commits the 1 charge of it to believers in Christ (1 1 Pet. 4:10). These husbandmen did I lot own the vineyard, neither do we, :hough we sometimes act as though j Eve thought we did. Having put the ( vineyard into the hands of the hus- r oandmen, the proprietor withdrew . from it, and so God withdraws, in a sense, from direct activity in His kingdom and works through men. c We are similarly taught in the New ? restament that Jesus Christ has withdrawn from the administration of *] flis kingdom and committed it to us ? (Matt. 25:14, 15; Mark 13:34; Luke t 19:12). The absence of the proprie- ^ or did not in any wise lessen his ownership of the vineyard nor the respon- ? sibility of the husbafidmen; and ' Christ's abscnce does not in any ways esson our responsibility to Him. ? When the time for fruit came the proprietor justly sent to receive the fruits of his vineyard, and so God will iemand of each of us the fruits of Eiis vineyard. The servants who were sent to demand the fruits of the vine- ? ard were the Old Testament prophets j C2 Chron 36:15. 10: Jer. 25:4). The ? ne saan ue dcuucicu aa uuoi, classes are represented by this, those who stumble and are broken and come afterward to believe and arc saved, and those who persistently re.iect and are crushed to powder (cf. Ps. 2:12, ft; 110:5, 6; Dan. 2:34, 35, 44, 45; Is. 8:14, 15). The persistent rejection of Christ is the one final and damning sin. Besides That, Xotliinsj.

'ruits demanded were repentance, >bedience. righteousness and benevoence (2 Kings 17:13; Zech. 7:S-10). The servants whom God sends to the jresent husbandmen are His divinely :alled and commissioned ministers. The fruits they demand are the same. The husbandmen mistreated all the servants of God. This was historically ;rue of Israel's treatment of their prophets (ch. 5:12; 2 Chron. 36:16; 24:20, 21; 16:7, 10; Jer. 26:21-24; \cts 7:52; Neh. 9:26; 1 Kings 18:4, L3; 19:2, 10; 22:26, 27). The way n which Israel treated their prophets troves conclusively that these pro)hets were not "the product of the Semitic natural character and genius," jut God-inspired and God-commis>ioned men. It is no wonder that ;uch a reople should reject their an>inted King when He came. The vorld uses godly men in the same way :o-dav (2 Tim. 3:12), and thus rereals its hatred to God (John 15:18, L9; 17:14;' 7:7; Rom. 8:7). The lousehclder's last resource was the sending of His own Son. Of course, :his Son represents Jesus Christ. While all the prophets, even the greatest, were simply servants, Jesus vas a Son, an only Son (cf. Mark 12: 5, R. V.; Heb. 1:1, 2, 5; 3:5, 6). It seems inconccivable that the wickedless of the husbandmen should reach ;uch a point that they would even kill :he con and heir (v. 37; cf. Jer. 30:3; Sepli. 3:7). The Jewish leaders did lot, with perfcct clearness, recognize n Christ the Messiah, and deliberitely plan to get His kingdom from Tim (Luke 23:34; Acts 3:17; 1 Cor. J:S), and yet there was a recognition nore or less clear on the part of the eaders of who Jesus was, and a de:ermination on their part not to yield :o Him lest they lose their own preeminence and power (John 11:47, , IS). IT. Go<l's Relentless Severity To,vnrd Those Who Despise His Goodiess, -10-10. It was a tremendously searching question that Jesus put to :he Jews in v. 4 0. It suggests anoth- 1 ;r question that God puts to us in i Heb. 10:2S, 29. By their answer (v. 11) they declare their own doom. As j in historic fact God did "miserably lestroy these miserable men." This loom was executed in the destruction ' 3f Jerusalem (Luke 19:41-44; cf. Matt. 22:6, 7; 23:35-3S; 24:21, 22). 1 :he most appallingsiege in the world's i listory. A similar doom awaits those l ivho now reject Christ (Heb. 12:25). Israel, having been destroyed, the rcingdom is transferred to the church, ihosen out from the Gentiles, "ration , bringing forth the l'ruits thereof" (cf. ? Acts 15:14; 1 Pet. 2:9: Rev. 5:9). ( Jesus ccnfirme:l His teachings by an appeal to the Old Testament Scriptures (v. 42: cf. P3. 11S:22).
