i z-' \ / riuirsday, May 31, 1928 McCOKMICK MESSENGER, McCORMICK. South Carolina ie ; OF VARIHV IN MENU In recent years many new dishes have graced the tables fn our hames. Delicacies that were once the secret of restaur^ ant chefs are now prepared easily and quickly in our own kitchens. Every housewife has been greatly enlightened in the art of preparing menus that are tempting and different. Progressive grocery stores have kept pace with this ad* vancement in stocking a greater variety of good foodstuffs to make poesib’e the varietv and difference in menus. You’ll find that this store is no exceptian to this pro gressiveness, in fact, it is a leader. We carry a most complete and varied line of foodstuffs. If you know what you want for your meals, you can get it here, and you can get new ideas by visiting our store. T. CARLTON FAULKNER , McCORMICK, S. C.

Every business concern keeps a strict account of every penny receiv ed ard spent, and any firm or cor pora*‘on which did not do so would sc On go into bankruptcy. In principle, the same rule should apply to individuals. Lack of system, whi’e it may not lead to failure or ruir, is a great detriment to our pro gress. Crrelessncss in small things leads to carelessness in larger affairs and likew'se the careful handling of small meunts of money fits one for the greater and larger responsibilities! of life. One of our most successful busi ness men has said: “Early in life. W'hen a poor boy, I formed the habit of jotting down a record of every penny I spent. This taught me the value of system and frugality. I soon found myself able to save a lit*Ie money. As I grew I developed habits of general thrift from this simple beginning, and, with a small amount of capital thus available when I reached the age of maturity, I was able to take advantage of op portunities that led to subsequent success.” A few pennies or a few dollars wasted here and there do not seem to amount to much at the time they are spent, but when you see the record of these extravagances in cold fig ures they assume their true propor tions and significance. If you are endeavoring to get ahead in the world you will find that by the adoption df a budget system your success in thrift will be made doubly easy and you will soon be surprised at the difference these systematic practices make in the amount of your savings. - Discharged Through I Execution By REV.

X- -txt- Eggs Should Be Hard-Cooked Rather Than Hard-Boiled face of these cards, after judgment had been inflicted, he wrote the words, “DISCHARGED THROUGH EXECU TION.” This is the message of the text. “I , through the law died unto the law.” | “I have been crucified with Christ.” The law of God arrests the sinner and judges him to he worthy of death. “The wages of sin IS death.” From this judgment there is no appeal nor Is there any escape. Physical, ju dicial and spiritual death are ines capable. Physical death needs no ex planation but judicial and spiritual death do. The meaning of judicial death will be understood from sucb a scripture as John 3:30 where we read of the wrath of God abiding upon un believing sinners. Wrath is Impend ing but is not yet fallen. Sentence of death has been pronounced by the Judge of all the earth, but the sen tence has not yet been executed. Then there is spiritual death which means, separation from God. “Your sins have separated between you and your God ” to where they should prepare the Passover for Him, Jesus told them to go into the city where they would meet a man bearing a pitcher of water, whom they should follow. In the house to which they were thus led would he found a guest chamber, a large upper room where they could make ready the Passover. 2. The betrayal announced (vv. 17- 21). The betrayal was to be by one of the disciples who was eating with Jesus. This betrayal had been pre dicted. 3. The sacrament of the bread and cup. These were symbols of His broken body and shed blood by which He had made atonement for man’s sins. III. The Cowardice of the Disciples Foretold (vv. 23 31).

As eggs become abundant in April and May, the housekeeper naturally discovers many unusual ways in which to cook and serve them. If she is a practical hdme maker, she knows that when she increases the number of eggs eaten by the family she is adding to the total iron, cal cium, phosphorus, and other valuable food elements its members are get ting in their diet. If she is a begin ner, she serves eggs because the taste of them is liked and because they are easy to cook. As a matter of fact, in spite of this last excellent reason for serving eggs often, it sometimes happens that she justifies the time-worn phrase of contempt, “She doesn’t even know how to boil a n egg.” Or, to put it another way, she has not yet learned that for best results eggs are never boiled, but cooked soft or hard by a method that is equally easy, and that does not overcook the whites and leave the yolks raw. Soft-cooked eggs prop erly prepared, are sometimes called “coddled,” and are always recom mended for little children, especially when they are beginning to take solid foods. By simply prolonging the time, eggs may be similarly “hard-cooked” for the school lunch box or spring picnic, and they will be much bet ter than “hard-boiled” eggs, in which the whites usually become tough and leathery if the yolks are cooked long enough to be firm. The Bureau of Home Economics of the United, States Department of Agriculture gives the following directions for cooking eggs properly in their shells: The best method is to use a double boiler. In the top part put the eggs and a cupful of boiling water for each egg to be cooked. Cover close ly, and keep warm over hot water in the low r er part, qf the double boiler. Leave the eggs in the hot water for, 6 to- 8 minutes if they are to be soft- J cooked, or for 30 minutes if they! axe to be hard-cooked. Eggs pre-, pared in this way are then ready for use in salads, for stuffed or deviled eggs, or for sandwich mixtures. Rom. 6:23, “The wages of sin Is death.” As sinners under sentence, the law apprehends us and shuts us up in the prison house of death. “The strength of sin Is the law.” But wonder of wonders, a voice is heard saying: “Deliver him from going down into the pit, I have found a ransom.” “Who can R'ansom us from sin and death?" I ask. And the voice replies: “The Son of Man is come to give His life a ransom for many.” In the atoning sacrifice Lord that though all the rest would forsake Him, yet lie would not. The Lord showed him how little he knew, even about his best resolve, telling him that on that very night he would deny Him thrice. IV. The Agony in Gethsemane (vv. 32-42). 1.

The law Is vindi cated, not violated. Sin is judged, not excused. A death takes place. “Christ died for our sins.” In that deaih all true believers in Christ have a part a mile from Jerusalem. Gethsemane means olive trees. Edersheim says, “It is an emblem of trial, distress and agony.” (2) His companions (v. 35).

So the apostle writes in the words of Rom. 6:4 that like as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father even so we, being raised In Him, should walk -In newness of life. Our spiritual union with Christ begins with His death, but does not stop there. It includes union with Him in resurrection and newness of life. All the righteous requirements of the law having been met in death, God quickens us with a new life in His Risen Son. “If any man be in Christ he is a new creature, old things are passed away, behold ail things are become new." Such a salvation as this Is worthy of the appellation, “great.” No won der that the inspired writer asks the question: “How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation?” We cannot possibly escape the loss In volved in its neglect. Christian peo ple need to bestir themselves in mak ing such a salvation known unto the ends of the earth. Those who have not yet received Christ as Savior and Lord should come to Him immediate ly for In thus coming they become in- ! corporated into Him. By union with Him in death they are discharged through execution from the penalty of broken law, and by union with Him in resurrection they walk in newness of life. of. Heb. 2:14). He prayed that the hour might pass from Him. The bur den was so great that it seemed His life would be crushed out. His prayer was heard (Heb. 5:7). c. His resignation (v. 36). He knew that Mis death on the cross was the will of God, the Father, for He was the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. d. The disciples rebuked (v. 37). He singled out Peter, since he had been the most conspicuous in pro claiming his loyalty (John 13:38). e. Exhortation to the disciples (v. 38). Watch and pray lest ye enter into temptation. (2) The .second prayer (vv. 39, 40). He withdrew the second time from His disciples and uttered the same words In prayer. This was not vain repetition, but repeated request. (3) The third prayer (vv. 41, 42). He uttered the same words in his third prayer (Matt. 26:44). He told the disciples to sleep on and take their rest as the hour had now come for His betrayal.
