LE88ON TEAT-Matt 6:1-12. GOLDEN TEXT?"Blessed are the pure In heart for they shall (No doubt about If) see God." It was St Augustine who first gave the ordination address of Jesus, after choosing the twelve, the title of "The Sermon on the Mount." a title now universally accepted. It Is better perhaps "Thre Gospel of the Kingdom," telling us of the characteristics of these members of the new kingdom Jesus came to establish, the influence of these members upon the world, and is a commentary upon the laws of this kingdom t? iB thl? ?nd more, for it is a prophecy of the church at work and also a test whereby we are to know who belong to this kingdom. Their 8plritual Meaning. There are In reality only seven of the Beatitudes, the "blessednesses" and seven Is always typical of perfectness. They are written In Old Testament language, taut give the old form a new and spiritual meaning. The rewards are not t.rbltrary, but are the logical outgrowta of the character depicted. The first four are passive virtues. Happy are those who are poor In spirit, not tiie poor-spirited but the humble minded bnes conscious of their need. It is the poor, as to this world, that are to be rich in faith and to be heirs of that kingdom which Christ has promised to those that love him (Jas. 2:6). Happy are those that mourn, for they mourn not as those who have no hope, they shall be comforted, yea, they shall be strengthened. Paul tells us of that sorrow which is unto salvation and need not to be repeut*d of, but the sorrow of the world worketh death. Happy are the meek, those who are not proud. The pride of man is soon cut off as grass. In him, the meek and lowly, we are to find rest to our souls. We are exhorted by the meekness and gentleness of Christ to receive Instruction and Peter tells us that our ornamentation that shall be of the greatest price is to be meek and quiet in spirit. At this point the master begins to make his practical application of the lives of those having these characteristics, upon the world about them. Happy are the merciful. The withholding of mercy tends to poverty, but the liberal soul shall be made fat, for to the merciful he will show himself tc be merciful. Forebearing. and forgiving we enter Into this happiness. being kind, forgiving, tender-hearted, even a. Christ hath forgiven us. Righteousness Defined. Happy are the pure for tbev may draw nigh unto God in full assurance of faith for themselves and on behalf of others. Indeed the writer of Hebrews tells us that without holiness (purity) no man can see God, not our own righteousness wherein we might boast but the righteousness of Christ which Is by faith. Happy are the peace-makers, the receivers and the dllTusers of this king dom. Not merely peaceable men, not pieces of men, but rather as Tyndale's version is, "the maintainers of peace." I>ed by the spirit of God they are nol only called the sons of God, but are the sons of God (Rom. 8:11). "The cause, not the pain, makes the martyr," said St. Augustine. Those who are presented for righteousness sake, not those who seek persecution are possessors of this kingdom; pos seBslng it they are persecuted. Being is doing?doing does not pro duce life, and we hare here a linking of the old law and the new gospel. His kingdom brings blessedness, happi ness; satan's kingdom turns to the ap pies of Sodom. God says, speak out endure for others. His kingdom is dis tinguished by altruism. The klngdon; of darkness sa>*3: "Keep still, live foi yourself." This kingdom knows nol the essence of brotherhood. Man ever asks this old question: "How may I be happy?" Those whoa Jesus selects as the happy ones art looked upon by (he world as the mosl unfortunate, but time has proven and eternity will justify these declaration,' of Christ. The good of this age be longs to the selfish and self-assertive the good of the coming age to the self renouncing. It is better to have sor rowed and to have received his com fort than never to have sorrowed a! all. The message of the meek will gei a hearing as against the censorious and the supremely hanpv are thosf who shall see God. Jesus saw the multitude when he gave us this sermon, which is not c sermon at all. He understood theii ueed. the state of their hearts and what was in their ininds. He did noi see them as so many pawns upon the chess board of life; he saw their life thel.- sorrows, their sins. He read the story of human need and human des tiny. He looked into their sad eyes and saw their longing after happinesand immortality. He knew that th< best heathenism could ofTer was ob livion or else sensuous ease and sc from his heart he spoke to them of the 'Heart of Happiness." Light, liberty growth, altruism rather than an) paralysis of soul or supreme selfish ness. Hunger for the highest and th< noblest can find a supply for all Iti needs in Jesus the Son of God an< only according to the principles h' here sets forth. Why rejoice over our reproach? He ^anse this is the path into this ne* kingdom. And when we walk "fo Christ's sake" we shall enter thereii jnd rejoice greatly for we shall hav great reward i? heaven."

Blaupot ten Cate. writ ing In the Ingenleur, suggests that Holland Is slowly sinking. His theory la based partly upon the subsidence of old Roman buildings. Such apparent subsidence Is known In other countries, but In these caBes It Ib probable that instead of the buildings sinking the surrounding or superposed Boil has risen. The old Roman Btreet that ran through London Is now eighteen feet below Cheap. Mde. At Aosta In northwest Italy the Holland Schoolgirls. ! Roman pavement of the Via Praetoria la from eight to ten feel below the present level of the ground. The i Cathedral of Notre Dame In Paris | was formerly approached by a fight ; of steps, which have now dlsap! peared. With regard to Holland M. i ten Cate says: "A certain number of Roman edi. fires, the entrance to which must necessarily have been from the level of the ground when they were built in the first, second or third century H. C., are now awash at high tide. ' An examination of the foundation shows that they have sunk from five i to thirteen feet.

"Finally, the formation of the Zuyder Zee and of the Gulf of Jade, In northern Germany, leaves nb room for doubt as to the subsidence of the 1 soil in that part of Europe ia fairly recent times." Rut in spite of this gradual sinking of the coil of Holland the construction of the great works for the drying of the Zuyder Zee will not be allowed to cease. The Zuyder Zee covers 760 square miles. It is estimated that tho construction of a dam across the mouth would cost $1.8,375.000 and the process of draining another $65,090,| 00O. CURE FOR SLEEPING SfCKNESS West Coast of Africa May Get Rid of Disease Through Fowls Who Eat Pupa of Fly. London.?Letters received from the sest coast of Africa during the last few days tell of a new hope for the ultimate cor#uest of sleeping sickness, j It Is known that one or two of the , tsetse flies carry the parasite (trypanofome) either from man to man or from i beast to man. The attempt to remove the natives from the fly areas, and thus to protect them from the disease, has not been altogether successful Any effort to kill down the flies ap| pears hopeless.

GREATEST LESSON OF LIFE' I The One Thing Above All That e , i Woman Should Be Quick to Learn and Remember. The woman who.makes good must, i be blessed with strength and health, and an ambition to learn and take advantage of every opportunity that comes her way. She must work with all her heart and play with all her heart; above all things avoiding Indifference. Hers is the temperament that recrunlzes that encouragement Is all nice and pretty, but If one Is going to do the thing that counts one di%sn't need it; that refuses to be dismayed by repeated failures and that has a certain faith that what has been done by many may be done by another; that nobody goes through life without disappointments, heartaches and the breaking of pet Illusions; that there is nothing more common than trouble, but that It is the wise ones of earth that keep It In the background. That's the great lesson of life.?Exchange. ALMOST CRAZY WITH ECZEMA "T, the undersigned, cannot give enough praise to the Cuticura Remedies. I bad been doctoring for at least a year for eczema on my foot. I had tried doctor after doctor all to no avail. When a young girl I sprained my ankle three different times, paying little or no attention to It, when five years ago a small spot showed upon my left ankle. I was worried and sent for a doctor. He said It was eczema. He drew a small bone from the ankle about the size of a match and about an inch long. The small hole grew to about the size of an apple, and the eczema spread to the knee. The doctors never could heal the hole in the ankle. The whole foot ran water all I the time. j "My husband and my sons were up j night and day wheeling me from one room to another in the hope of giving i me some relief. I would sit for hours at a time In front of the fireplace 1 hoping for daybreak. The pain was so intense I was almost crazy, in fact, I would lose my reason for hours at a time. One day a friend of mine ! dropped In to see me. No more had she glanced at my foot than she exclaimed: 'Mrs. Finnegan, why in the world don't you try the Cuticura Remedies'' Being disgusted with the doctors and their medicines, and not being able to sleep at all, I decided to give the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment a trial. After using them three days that night I slept as sound as a sliver dollar for eight long hours. ! I awoke in tbo morning with but very ; little pain, in fact, I thought I was In heaven.

Women are beginning to realize more fully that good health is not to be found in the use of cosmetics and face ponders. The appearance of health may follow facial treatment, but health itself lies much deeper than the surface. Most important to the health of every woman la regularity of the bowels and digestive organs. The weary eyes, bad breath, frequent headaches, pimples and general air of lassitude, is in most every case due to constipation or indigestion, or both. There are various remedies prescribed for this condition, but the easiest, most pleasant and certainly effective, is a combination of simple laxative j herbs with pepsin known to druggists | as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This i simple remedy is far preferable to harsh salts and cathartics and violent purgative waters that disturb the whole system without affording more than temporary relief. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a tonic laxative, mll,d in its action, pleasant to the taste and positive in | its eneci, Bircugiucuiue v.? , ( of stomach and bowels so that after j a 6hort time these organs regain the power to perform their natural funo j j tlons without assistance. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold j by druggists everywhere in 50c and 11.00 bottles. If you have never tried | it, write for a 6araple to Dr. W. B. j I Caldwell, 201 Washington St., Monti- 1 cello, 111.; he will gladly send a trial bottle without any expense to you ' whatever. Kindly Scribe. "The editor of the Weekly Plain Dealer is a charitable sort of feller," commented honest Farmer Ilornbeak, in the midst of his perusal of the village newspaper, wherein he had encountered an example of the linotype's peculiar perversity. "In his article on the death of Lafe Dabsack, who, betwixt me and you, hadn't much to recommend him except that he wasn't quite as bad sometimes as he was others, he says that 'the deceased was generally regarded as hijjdyt89mfwrdetahrmfwhrtadfyp!'" "And I guess that's about as near as anybody could get to making an estimate of the departed without hurting his relatives' feelings."?Puck. A Confession.
