Extension Department. Moody Bible Institute. Chicago.' Rev. H .Ostrom, D. □ 383 TEXT—t came down from heaven.— John 6:3S. Our word, “advent,” fails to encom pass at all fully the extent of the de scent Jesus ac complished In com ing to save us. It Is very true as that word signi fies, “He came to : His own,” but In ! our selection for j today we have in that word “down" a lesson In the j marvelous down- coming H1 s , blessed mission j embraced when, “in the fullness of time He was made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem." rids lesson concerning His advent v\hen properly grasped tells volumes t<> us concerning His public minister ing and sacrificial death. Indeed much of the discounting of His redeeming blood today is based upon a superfi cial estimate of His> advent. We may see Him even before His advent set forth before us as the Bush, or the Branch, or the Root out of the dry ground. It all tells of His com ing dovvu so low, for if that were not the intent would it not be rather the tall cedar, the oak of Bashan, or other majestic selection from nature? But that condescension which con sented to accept a manger for His first habitation among us 1 truly starts our thoughts in the right direction for viewing His advent. For, not forget ting the deity which, to be sure, in cludes His power as creator of heaven and earth, what coming down is this! As if the forests had spent all their trees and the quarries had been ex hausted of all their building stone and human homes had all been an nihilated. only (he manger in the kalm remaining; He accepts just that. Crowded out? * Yes, and as if there were nothing left on earth but to he crowded out. Surety the touch of the picture averages the very lowest fur the iiuman because men have never been known to habitually prefer to be domiciled in a stable. Men prefer bet ter conveniences. But a manger! There follows a record of His life here in the flesh, plentifully supplied with incidents which tell of the com ing down. Does He not allow Himsell to he carried into Egypt, the land whose very name speaks'of bondage, and this by the edict of* the Idumenn Herod? Thus it is written of both Israel and Israel’s Redeemer. “Out of Egypt have I called my Son.” Wha: corning down is this! When He sent forth the twelve men to herald the Kingdom of Heaven He included a I’eter who denied Him. a •Tudas who sold Him, and a Thomas who doubted Him. Fathom the rea sons for sucli men being so near Him if vve will, and whatever else vve may consider about it, the fact reveals that it was permitted because He came down so low to save men. There is that sister of ours, her hotly ruined, her spirit soiled, her standing a bankruptcy; site seeks ad mission to the Isouse pf Mr. Simon where Jesus is a guest at dinner. Wiil she be allowed to enter? Yes, the porter has let li^-r pass. How site must have tiptoed in, thinking that if everybody else despised her, Jesus would help her if she could only get to Him. May she do that? Yes, there she is. How near? Near enough for het tears to fall on His feet. Near enough for her to touch His feet with tlie hair of her head as she stoops ovei to brush the tents away. Will He, the holy, the harmless, the undefiieri and separate from sinners, allow it? Multiply explanations as vve may, this is evident at least—He came that far down to save such as she. And see Him with the reed they have placed in Hie hand, the mock- robe over His form the thorns on His brow, the mob shouting at Him and the foul spittle from their mouths striking Him—spittle, and for its tar get, the HOLIEST! What shall vve conclude? What ever else, this. He came that far down. A King worse treated than a slave,-“He made Him self of no reputation.” Gathering just a few such incidents from among the many, we are pre pared for the climax, the lowliness of His humiliation. He came down to the Cross ahd with it the soldiers set Him at naught. Did they propose that eartli did not need Him and heaven would not have Him? Philosophize on redemption/all we may, yet this is apparent: The cross discloses how far down He came to get us. Thai love! Through one little window observe it. It Is but one of ten thou* sand opportunities to observe it, when He says, “Father forgive them.” Ob, 1 say if our estate Is an ocean of guib and trouble and death He lias conm all the way down to the very floor rtf that sea to get us In the cry, “My God.

They give instant relief, con tract the opening in a remarkably short time and strengthen the weak tissues (the real cause of rupture) so that they frequently rocover their prevous natural retainmg power, needing no further outside support. Stomach trouble, backache and con* stipation often caused by Rupture promptly disappear. Truly remarkable results have been obtained with recent and not yet fully developed ruptures and many old ones also. No legstraps or elastic belts are used. Can be worn while bathing and are highly sanitary, being im pervious to sweat. Letters from highly saUsfied cli ents available.

Galpin of the United States Department of Agriculture “is the evident revolution in the ru ral human mind, whereby science has entered as an habitual guide, displac ing the blind guides. I am asking you to see that science can not be shut up in a chamber of the m nd lab eled agriculture, but will pervade all compartments and sooner or later be in full operation among all the hum an relationship of rural society.” X It is sometimes asked whether fried meats are harmful to children. Fiied meats are apt to be overcook ed and hard. It is better to pan-broil chops and other tender cuts for chil dren. Only enough fat is used to keep the meat from st'eking. It is seared quickly on the outside and all the juices are retained. As tough meats require long slow cooking, they a; e first browned lightly and the n simmered until tender.
