I increased Exports of Manufactures, as Well as Baw Materials. Disinterested observation of condi ?tions in the South serves to confirm the conclusions reached as to the re rkable economic transformation ling on in that section. Everything ?s to show the wonderful develop^ meat that has come to the people of the Sooth. It was as inevitable that the sew beliefs and aspirations should find expression through the Southern Senators and Representa tives m Congress as that day should accompany the rising progress of the The South has been almost wholly an agricultural region, and its farming industries in the past ?been coniSned to a few staples, ney South sees hot only the ex tension of agriculture through still greater production of cotton, tobac co, rice ?nd sugar, but an almost end less variety of articles contributing to the profits of the growers. To this is to be tdded the gain of manufac turing, -constantly going forward to more extraordinary attainments and wonderfully helped by the abundance "ld cheapness of materials like iron re, coal, and lumber in close prox lity.

Y.-In the First Bap tist Church, \here, Sunday morning,) the minister, the Rev. Harry Glad stone Greensmith, preached on ^Lim iting Jesus Christ" The sermon touched upon what he declared to be the limitations of the Emmanuel Movement;- He also spoke of Chris tian Science. The text was from Mat thew 13:58: "And He did not many mighty works there; because of their unbelief." Mr. Greensmith said, among other things: Even the Holy One of God, seem ingly, had limitations. He was a urophet without honor in His own land. In Christ we find' the wisdom, of the ages, the skill of the universe. He was the "vis medicatrix" of all science, religion and medicine. ? Pre eminent over all, and yet limited. . In Capernaum, per contrary.to Naz areth, there seems to have been no limit to the "powers" of Jesus. There and in adjacent placea He had wrought the mightiest miracles known to the ages. No other man has turned water into wine, br healed a nobleman's son of palsy. None but Jesus has cleaned out devils out of the temple of man's soul, or out of the visible temple of God's Kingdom on earth. ' Entering into Jerusalem, His be loved city, the city which caused the very nerve centres of His being to leap/ with joy, or travail in anguish, He saw a man impotent for thirty eight years. By a word from the Ups of this "rejected Nazarene" the man takes up his bed and goes away re joicing. Eveat here we find limita tions. Christ 'could do nothing of Himself. "I am come in My Father's name and ye receive Me not" "The Scriptures testify of Me, and yet ye will not come unto Me." And here we see forthcoming "isms." "If an other come in his own name, him ye will receive." And how wUd the world has gone over Dowie and Mrs. Eddy. They set forth a religion In their own name, and people have gone wild, and Christ instead of being ex alted has been bowed from His throne. Eddyism, falsely called "Christian Science," as there is so little of Christ in it, Is nothing short of idolatry, worse than Mariolatry, and Dowieism, is fast "going unto its own7'-to its founder. Christ's pow er is limited by these two fads. Entering the temple one Sabbath,' Jesus meets a man whose right hand is withered. "What will He do?" cries the Scribes. "Will He heal him?'" the Pharisees ask. And in spite ol them, Jesus shows forth His power and commands the man to stand forth. Then after a quiet talk on His sovereignty, He orders the man to stretch forth his hand, and he was immediately healed. This in creased the anger of His adversaries to madness, and they plotted how they might destroy Him, thus limiting again His powers. Thus far we have seen Christ's power over the lower limbs, In that He caused a man to 'walk for the first time in thirty-eight years; to another He gives- the use of an arm that was -useless; o:hers who on the point pf death He restores to strength. These exemplify Hte. powers over life, but, entering the City of Nain, He shows His power over death. The only son of a widowed mother ls being carried to the grave. Jesus commands him to arise. And the young man sits up and speaks: To another born blind He gives sight. Surely such miracu lous deeds ought to have removed all unbelief. But, sad to relate, He could not do in His own city any mighty works because of their unbelief. Even His own disciples at times manifested this unbelief, or lack of explicit trust. John in prison shows this spirit in his last message. Christ's anster was not sufficient to remove all doubt, even when Ho said:* "Go, tell John what ye have seen and heard: The blind receive their sight, lame walk, deaf hear, and the dead aro raised," etc. And all these doubts limited the Son of God. Ia the calling of the twelve we see | 1 Christ's limitations. He was sub servient to His Father's will, and He must have helpers with Him. Every step He took He counseled with the , Father before taking lt. ? "And He 1 continued all night in prayer to God. And when lt was day He appointed twelve, that they might be w:lth Him, and that He might send them forth to preach, and to have authority to heal," cast out demons. "And as He came down from the mount a great number of people from all sections came to hear Him and to bc healed of their diseases. And the multitude sought to touch Him, for power came forth from Him, and He healed them all." Now, this power of healing was gi vt? to these new "Christs," or, as they were afterwards called, "Chris tians," at Antioch. These men re ceived their new power and went out under orders. How well they obeyed ls recorded. it They were to be voices of God. t "For it is not ye that speak, but the t Spirit of your Father that speaketh t in you." "I will give ycu a mouth/ i and. wisdom, which all your adver- i saries shall not be able to withstand i or to gainsay." And they weat- I preached, cast out devils, anointed c with oil those-that were sick, healed c them all. t All ;^wer was given to them which i Christ Trad. "I have given you au- c thority;" He said- to the seventy, c Peter was rebuked for not using au- ? thority over the waves upon which he I attempted to walk. "Oh, thou of lit- I tie faith, wherefore didst thou f doubt?" J The disciples were also rebuked be cause their little faith prevented their healing the demoniac boy. Power had been given them, and they were rebuked for their failure to use it, just as much as the one talent man was rebuked. These brief suggestions lead to the question: When did the authority given to the disciples end? Why should there not be direct manifesta tions of the miraculous saving power aver diseases to-day among the disci ples of Christ as in the apostolic days? rhe closing of the canon certainly lid not close the door of healing. Another question arises: Why should we limit the power of the Spirit?, Surely the psychical nature s not greater than the physical? I am in great sympathy with the immanuel movement. I am reading ill I can get my hands on about it, but when I read the wonderful manges wrought In so many lives, I isk, Why could not we cast him out? SVhy cannot the same mighty works JO wrought in Boston, as were wrought in Capernaum? Is this not mtt'.ng a limitation on the work of Christ? . And ls not this limitation limply because our faith is so "little," md Christ cannot do; many mighty yorks here because of our unbelief ; . JIMsSnEBBSSSsSi INTERNATIONAL LESSON COM M?XTS FoR JULY ll. 5 uh j oct: Paul's Second Missionary Journey-The Philip] J ian Jailer, Act. 16:16-40-Golden Text, Acts 16:31-Commit Vs. 29-31. TIME.-A. D. 52. PLACE.-Phil ippi. EXPOSITION. - I. A Midnight Prayer and Praise Service in Jail, 25, 126. This ls one of the most inspiring and instructive prayer and praise ser vices on record. (1) The circum stances-in a dark hole, with torn and bleeding and aching backs1, and with a very dark outlook for th?, mor row. A gocd time to pray (Ps. 50: 15; comp. Jas. 5:13). But it might seem a strange time to sing praises (Luke 6:22, 23, ch. 5:41; Ro. 5 3; Phil. 2:17; 1 Pet. 14:4;Eph. 5:20). Sorrows and aches taken in that way become Bweet friends. (2) Th?, tlue -midnight. There is no better time for a prayer and praise meeting. It might seem as if Paul and Silas would have been better employed sleeping and getting strength for the next day's trials. But strength can often be better gained by prayer than- by sleep. (3) The result-"a great earthquake," "fsundatlons of the pri son shaken," "every one's bands j loosed," tne Jailor and his whole I household converted and rejoicing. This land needs a moral earthquake.. Let us >,ray for it. There are many prisoners who need tu have their j bands loosed Let ur pray f?r that. ? There ls great need of .the conversi in of whole households. Let us pray for this also. Paul would never have gotten a hearing from those prisoners 1 had ho not himself been cast into pri- ! son. They were doubtless a hard- j ened crowd, more used to profanity ! and blasphemy than to prayer and j songs of praise. II. The Jailor at Philippi Suddenly and Thoroughly Converted, 27-34. In a moment the brutal jailor becomes, an ' anxious inquirer. He asked a ! great question. A question every. man should ask. Jiote why*the jailor asked it, how he asked it, from whom j he asked it. (1) Why: Because he was lost and had been brought to see : it and feel it. The jailor had not been listening with the prisoners as Paul and Silas prayed and sung. He . had been fast asleep. .But God woke him up. It is a great thing to .have God 'wake us up. ' He had been j brought face to face with death. He had been brought face to face with two holy men. He h^id been brought face t* face with God, and he saw himself utterly lost, as any sane man sees himself when brought face to face with eternity and God. (2) How: In deep earnestness. None ct the trifling and shallowness charac teristic of so many modern "inquiry- j ro -ms" here - "trembling for fear, | fell down." Men whiz ask this qaes- j tion, in this spirit, will soon be rejoic ing, as this jailor was. (3) From whom: From men who knew the an swer; from mea who knew God's word (v. 32); from men who were Baved themselves. A gi eat answer to the great question. But a very sim-;; pie answer. What ls it to believe on ? the Lord Jesus? To "receive Him"; or take Him (Jno. 1:12). Take Him" as our Saviour, .who died in our placa , (Isa. 53.6; 1 Pet. 2.24; GaL 2:13). . Take Him as the One who rose agaia ' to be our Lord and King, and tc de- j liver us from sin's power (Acts 2:36: Heb. 7:25). A^ain it is to commit ourselves and all that we have to Him (2 Tim. 1:12). Cast yourself upon Him, surrender absolutely to Him, leave all with Him, that is the step that saves a man. But Paul and Silas did not stop with merjiy telling the ?? jailor to believe on th?* Lo~d Je3us, j they 4 Spake the Word" unto , aim (Rom. 10.17; comp. Jno. 20:31). Here is where many workers make a mistake. They rightly tell people to "bc.eve," but they do not give them the word about Christ crucified and risen to enable them to believe. It does not take long to get a man saved if he is in earnest. This jailor seemed ? hard case. He was brutal, he waa Indifferent, he was utterly ignorant. But in an hour (\. 33) he had passed out of suicidal despair into the rejoic ing, gentleness and abounding hrspl? :aluy of a baptized believer in Christ. Surely there ls Lothing about the way 3? salvation that it takes long to tell jr long to learn. One houris suffi* :ient for the whole business. Note ?e results of genuine conversion: (1) Transformation from brutality to ten. 1er compassion. (2) Open and im mediate confession of Christ in bap tism, (3) Gr ?at joy (R. V.). (4) Generous hospitality: (5) A trans formed home. JJI. Paul and Silas Released From Tail, 35-40. In tht morning the mag strates were frightened. They no onger wished t- punish Paul and Si as, but to get rid of them as quickly is possible. The earthquake had set ;hem thinking. Bat they were not to ;e:: rid- of Paul as easily as they j hought. He was a Roman citizen ? md they had beaten him publicly and incondemned. This was a serious of ,'er.se. They had beaten him publicly md now they must justify him as J mblicly. Their former severity j1 hanges into utter obsequiesness. They :aroe and they besought and they ?reught and they begged. They did lot hasten their departure from the :itjr. They comforted the young dis? :ipi.es before they left. Their imprl lonment had turned out to their icnor and to the glory of God icf. tom. 8:28). The officials were very oolish. They ought to have begged faul to stay instead of to have gone. Prejudice Against the Stage In China. So great is the official prejudice gainst the stage in China that it xtends even to the children actors, nd th?se are prohibited from hold* ag any post under the government, 'our years ago the grandson of an ctor named Cheng was appointe! ranslator to the Chinese legation at terlin. Cheng in his day was in . tie very front of his profession, and anked as high in the esteem of all c lasses of society as Sir Henry Ir- c lng did in his country. Yet the ominatlon of his descendant cause;l n outcry among Chinese official?, . nd a memorial praying for his re- \ ?oval was presented .to the 'Empress g owager. The new official, it was c ointed out, belonged to the castle c f actors, who ranked with barbers 1 ad chiropodists, as the three lowest t lassies in the oountry. The younger ' heng, however, was able to prove ( lat his parents did ?not follow his ?i randf?ther's profession, so the ap. h ointment was allowed to stand.- 3 ondon Chronicle. r Safer,"'1!:;: WILL C?TCiTLEON LING Chief Mccaffery Feels Seasonably ' Certain That Elsis Sigel'B Murderer Will Be Apprehended. New . York, Special. - Inspector Mccafferty, chief of the New York detective bureau, has- given v out the first authentic statement on the murder- of Elsie Sigel that ha9 been made by the police since tho discovery of the girl's body on June 18 in a trunk in the bedroom of Leon Ling, an Americanized Chinaman, in an Eighth avenue chop, suey restau rant. "We shall catch the murderer," the inspector said. "Delay does not altar that although it chafes us. The. whole country is one vast rat-trap with every exit guarded. i "The girl was killed between 10. o'clock in the morning and noon of Ju: r 9 and we believe Leon Ling is the inan who did it, with Chung Sing, his intimate, and possibly others, as possible accomplices. We have Chung Bing. From his room in Eighth aven ue, Leon Ling was thought to haye gone straight to Washington and there Bent the 'Don't worry' telegram sign ed 'Elsie' received on the night of" the murder by the Sigel family. It is definitely and clearly estab lished that the trunk was carted from the Eighth avenue house in which the body was found. to a Chinese laundry at No. 370 West 126 street and thence to Newark, N. J., whence it was returned to the room of Leon Ling? where it was discover ed. It has-been shown, too, that Ling was personally busied in mov ing the trunk about. It seems clear that tb have been at the various places mentioned Ling could not have spared the time for a trip to Washington.

OULTRY FOR PROFIT How Old is Biddy? English, authorities hold that there is no certain test of age in fowls. But they admit that, in general, the spurs both of hens and cocks will dis tinguish a two-year-old bird., There, are exceptions, however, in which'really young birds,develop old looking spurs, while really second year birds preserve the short, rounded spurs of a cockerel. The texture of the legs is a guide, to some extent, and so are the deli cacy and freshness of the Skin of the face and comb, but still an occasional hen will preserve her youthful ap pearance to a startling degree. Th? skin of the body ls a better ?test, as it- becomes coarser and dry er-looking with age. Formerly the wing- feathers were considered an absolute test as be-1 tween a pullet and a hen, even after! the long practice of early breeding had made the moulting of early pul lets quite common. An Austrian authority says that a pullet will" show rose-colored veins on the? surface of the skin, under the ; wings. There will also be long silky hairs jj growing there. After a year old these hairs disappear, as also do the veins', and the skin grows white and velnless. It is more difficult to judge the age of water fowls than of other poultry, partly from the absence of spurs', partly from greater longevity, and partly because the water kec. j their legs soft and fresh. Ducks waddle more heavily as they grow older, and after two or three years they acquire a depression down the breast. - / An abdominal pouch of consider able size indicates great age in geese. . Turkeys up to a year old are said to have black feet, which grow pink up to three years of age, when they gradually turn gray and dull. Age in pigeons is often told by the color of the breast. In squabs, the flesh looks whitish as seen through the skip, but becomes more and more purplish as the bird grows older. Poultry in Shaping Boards. The . weight placed on the top of the chicken is used to give a compact appearance. This may be an iron 01 brick. If chickens are hung by legi after being plucked lt. spoils theil appearance. Plan used by Ontaric ?Experiment Station. . It rays to Canonize. 'A capon hears the same relation to a Tooster as a steer to a bull, and ae bull meat is not equal to steer meat so are roosters not equal to capons. When cockerels become capons they cease to grow combs and wat tles, do not crow and fight, grow much faster and finer flesh and bring more money than ordinary chickens. lt a cock weighs ten pounds, a capon will weigh fifteen, and bring three, to four times the price, one hundred.and twenty-five dollars often being paid for 100 capons. It certainly pays to caponize sur plus .cockerels. A set of tools, with iatructions foi using, costs and only ordinary skill is re r'or caponizing, cockerels must be less than six weeks old and weigh a pound or more. Favorite Geese. A flock of well-bred Toulouse geese. These are about the best geese 'for average farm conditions. Incubator Chicks. Chicks must be kept clean either with hens or in a brooder. To- clean them every day is not too often. The heat from the brooder makes drop pings produce foul air, as do hens when, brooding chicks. Give no feed until the clutch is at least thirty-six .hours old. They do not need it for the yolk absorbed just before hatch ing provides them until that age.. Leave them in the incubator or under hens until ready to give the first feed, which should be fine gravel or sand on the bottom of the coop or brooder. They will eat quite a lot of lt, and it provides the gizzard with grit to grind food. ) -' Points About Poultry. The yolk of the egg spoils much quicker than the white. . It must not be forgotten that food flavors the flesh as well as the egg. If not. on free range, have good yard for exercise and have this yard limed and plowed at least once a year. A French naturalist asserts that the use of pounded garlic with the usual food has been made to com pletely eradicate the gapes among pheasants Ju Ev rope. AND YET MEN GET MARRIED. Wifey.
