The true religious life is transcend
nntlv ar..l delightfully real. It is not
Kusr^ptilde, perhaps, to arithmetical
or geometrh:;1 d monstration. We
are >.it ahh? to prove it in Its spccu

tenses aitoscthcr, hut it ia none tho
lef s real. l.n>ins hold as it. ?lo. s
upon the divine, it is simply inexplic
able in all its outtvachlnjfs through
the medium of finite speech. A? true
it is that ;;;;i?vio cauuot tell y: tLc
glorious realities of the spiritual life
n% It 1m tlutf the tongue hn? not yet
told the fullnous of tho glories of
that rl*h?r life that Is yc*t to be. Hut
though tho tongue may bo unable to
explain It all or to reveal In finite
language the infinite experiences of
the spiritual life It 1h none the lesn
real. The Hptrltual religious llfo Is
the result of experience. It Is ex
perience. It 1h Ju?t as exact ami
scientific lu Its way and Just as ex
perimental. mystical and abstract
though It bo, as any other scientific
discipline. It cannot, of course, ho
demonstrated hy tlx* exoprlences of
the physicist alone, or hy tho ter
minology of tho geologist alone, or
l?y tho rules of tho algebraic formu
lae. But It has Its own laws. Its
own characteristics may ho scientific
ally tabulated. Its experiences may
bo classified. Its reality may bo in
vestigated and proven by any open
minded, open-hearted man who will
place himself within the realm of 1ft*
manifestations and permit himself
to be moved upon by lis influence^
It Is spiritually real.
Then, too, t.l>e true rontons llf<j
such as has been revealed unto u#
in Jesus Christ Is ethically Influen
tial. It. takes hold of the conduct
of the man, and whereas he was be
fore satisfied with lax and easy reg
ulations for the ordering of his per
sonal and social life, It lends him past
all that Is superficial and insufficient
and |e,43 than whollj righteous, step

the claims of (lod and of huipanity

with nothing but the best in manners
and morals, and is continually test

Is for a man to reject the privileges,

YVrSCh, 1>, 10.
The r?t two verses glvo us an ?.n
idght Into tlio humblo beginnings of.
Moses. A simple man and woman
marry. And from that Inconspicuous
union the leader of a mighty people
und the leader of a soclul epoch np
pearu. Tho mighty men of God have
<iulto generally and uqually remark
ably been tho children of humblo
homes and of simple parentage, it
Is unnecessary to mention names;
they are familiar to us all. In the
light of these verses every marriage
is fraught with, everlasting possibili
ties. And Just bacausc in our own
homes perhaps we Hjay unwittingly
and unconsciously botrearing the fu
ture lender of a ' nation It behooves
us u/ider God to iodV carefulLy to the
teaching and the training of our
youth.
The mother love of the humble
soul who gave the breath of life from
God to Moses was as loyal and as
faithful as any that wo may suggest.
She eouid not see her child slaugh
tered, beautiful baby that ho was,
and isO trusting in the compassion
of womanhood she floated her child
into tho presence of the princess of
the Empire.
Somehow or other wo are im
pressed with the tact that, this simple
woman must have been supremely
conscious of the providence of God.
And her confidence wan rewarded,
llw intuitions were correct. The
mother in the prlnoOss wont out to
the lonely little waif in his little float
ing ark. J.Jy tho most, fortuitous of
circumstances Muses is returned to
th; custody of iiia mother before be
ing taken to the paiace to live among
the princes.
if is after Moses enter.? into tho
Inner life *>f the palace that our in
terest in his character deepens. We
ik1!' impressed with the fact that In
spite <u: the case and pleasures, the
P .Miliar charms ami seductions o?
the palace life Moses did not lose hi.?
i:it?":-ost in his own people or his
::i j.at by lor their distress and op
l? ;??".-3io11. The first stct. recorded of
tin* man as It ? contemplates the social
I'niid itions utid'M' which hi.? brethren
live is indicative of the character and
the future life oi" the man. Killed
with a holy indignation at thocrn dfy
of the J'gypiian taskmaster iti his
?'.?:?1 i?.?;?: with liis kinsman,'ho strikes
the Egyptian down. Wo may not. be
rbie oroei t i;' ?o justithe but
v.e can readily u:id"">;tand the provo
cation and i he :;;>irit e.l' (he man who
i.i midst o? case eo.fld so condemn
and resist univpe-esary Itardship he
lm; forced unwillingly upon any hu
man being.
The second act recorded of the man
after his life of ease in tlm palace of
,1'iiaraoh is equally indicative of the
t"inperaiwnt, a n! more indicative of
the philosophical insight of the man.
Jt was also the means to the reveal
ing of the densc.noos of the very peo
ple whom ho wished to rescue from
affliction. IIif. admonishment of tho
two tffchling toi 1 M-d shows us his wis
dom. Their answer, which drove
Moses in four into a distant region
in escape the Icing, reveals tho lack
I of insight of these men whom he
wished to aid.
'"ho most amazing thing in nil the
wurld is the unkindncosol' the world's
l< i' "s r.) inch other. The oppression
of the poor by those who aro socially
and industrially above them is an un
questioned feature of too large a por
tion of our modem life. J'ut the un
ehnritableneos and unkindnes-s of
multitudes of tho working class to
ward their own kind is as inexplica
ble from the standpoint o? wisdom as
it is appalling. I am conscious that
the courtesy and generosity of many
r:en and women among the poor is an
objc-ci kr.:on to many who are boun
tifully blessed with this world's
goods. Hut no man who is at all
familiar with lifo and observant of
conditions in the incite.?;rial life as
they are can fail to be Imn.vs sod with
the appalling amount of divergency
and discord among th ? very c!a:-s in

Notes of Interest to Planter,
Fruit Grower and Htockmrm
Koine rimmiing Annuals.
Groat pleasure may bo had from a
garden planted in annuals, though of
course the pleasure of the garden will
ho transitory. For a flower garden
of delight abiding, wo should have
flowering trees, flowering shrubs, po*
rennials, numerous bulbs, both hardy
and tender, and a generous sprink
ling of annuals.
The balsam is one of the old-tlmo
favorites which has boon improved
immensely by cultivation. It may
now bo had in many colors, and its
Mowers aro of beautiful fornf It re
quires a light, righ soil and sun. Th?v,
verbena is one of the loveliest flow
ers wo havo either annual or peren
nial, and should be largely grown; it,
too, requires a light, rich sol] and
sun. Nearly every coloi, with the ex
ception of yellow or orange, has boon
obtained in tills flower, and a bod of
this multi-colored (lower is difficult
to sitrpuss. The China aster is quite j
popular; it requires :i light, rich soil,
plenty of sun, ami attains a height of
two feet, continuing in bloom a cou
ple ot wcekS. For a sueeerHlon, sow
at Intervals of twenty to thirty days.
Scarlet sago (salvia splondens) is
one of the most gorgeous plants for
the garden; you run scarcely havo too
many. I)i Ing of sueb a brilliant line,
bo sure to have sufficient background
pf some good green in order that It
'may show up at its best, and <lo not
place it near pink flowers; each will
lose thereby. It requires g;>od roil
and will thrive cither in tl>e sun or
in partial shade. The dear li'tlr?
I auh.v is beloved by :il! of us, and
though boat results are obtained by
sowing in August or September, yet
the seed sown in '.be .spring io a hot
hed or in tl:o window imx in th??
house will give good result*:, contlnu- i

Camphor Farm v.
Our people will havn to look out
and bestir themselves or some ono
else will gather the cream of the cam
phor' business. There is no question
about its being a profitable enter
prise, and those who start first will
got the largest share of the profits.
l'Yopi an item in t'Jje Farm StQf'k
Journal it-seems that Texans have al
ready embarked in the business. Wo
hope that Florida will not be far be
hind.
Camphor raising promises to be
come an important and profitable in
dustry on the farms of Southwest
Texas. Dr. W. Watkins, of the bu
reau of plant industry, Washington,
says there is already one camphor
fa/m flourishing at Wharton, Texas,
and that another is to be estaliii.-dicd
at once siL l-'lorusvilL*,Wildun County,
Texas.
Or. Walking Is firmly of the opin
ion that camphor, lii?-!i is getting
rare, and which commands a very
fancy price, can be raided saccess
fully in Te.\a-j, and eventually !)??
come one of the Slate's richest crops.
!>r. Watkins says: "The camphor
plant is planted from seed, the same
as wheat <inc 1 oats, and requires j>:>
