FROSTY FOODS FOR SUMMER
(Recipes Below)
When you’re “eating out,” and
you wonder what to order for the
grand finale of your meal, how often
do you decide on a delicious sound
ing parfait? There’s something very
special about this tall, imposing and
delectable dessert. And there real
ly is no reason at all why having
parfaits for dessert should be con
fined to our “eating out” days. A
parfait may be a culinary creation,
but with modem ice cream freez
ers, improved freezing in mechani
cal refrigerators
and commercial
mixes to help
produce smooth,
creamy, frozen
desserts, there’s
no reason why you
shouldn’t serve
them often at
hornet
Make a variety of ice creams and
sherbets too, and serve them with
cookies or dainty cakes. You’ll
find a grand assortment of cookie

chewy cookies, and light feathery
cakes that are just the right accom
paniment for foods and drinks that
are cold and frosty.

THE WORKS AND THE WORD
OF GOD
LESSON TEXT—Psalm 19.
GOLDEN TEXT—Let the words of my
mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be
acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my
strength, and my redeemer.—Psalm 19:14.
Consistently beautiful and beauti
fully consistent is the revelation of
God, whether it be in the glory of
His works, in the perfection of His
Word, or in His gracious dealings
with man. The spiritually minded
man sees God in all of His works,
whereas the blind materialist sees
only matter and natural laws which
he may use or abuse. He makes
of God’s creation things for his own
comfort or for the destruction of
his fellow men, not recognizing “the
Creator, who is blessed forever.”
This is a serious matter, for in so
doing the unbeliever has “changed
the truth of God into a lie” (read
Rom. 1:20-25).
The psalmist here presents God
as He is revealed in nature, in His
Word, and in the heart of man.
I. God’s Glory Revealed in Nature
(vv. 1-6).
“The heavens declare the glory of
God.” The sun in all its glory and
power and the starry stillness of the
night all “utter forth a glorious
voice,” as Joseph Addison expresses
it:
“Forever singing, as they shine,
‘The hand that made us is divine.’ '*
Nature speaks eloquently of God
without saying a single word. The
eye, the mind, and the heart of men
may see in and know from nature
alone the “eternal power and God
head; sfKthat they are without ex-
cuse’J/Utom. 1:20). “No man living
beneath the copes of heaven dwells
beyond the bounds of God’s court
preachers.”.
Those who do not hear or heed
these voices, whether their ears
“are stopped with the clay of earth
ly tastes and occupations, or stuffed
with scientific wadding of the most
modern kind” (Maclaren), are de
scribed by Paul as having their fool
ish heart darkened: “Professing
themselves to be wise, they became
fools” (Rom. 1:21, 22).
Nature gives only a limited rev
elation of God, showing His exist
ence, power and wisdom; but to
really know Him we must see
II. God’s Perfection Revealed in
His Word (vv. 7-11).
Nowhere in the book of nature is
it written that God is a Redeemer,
a cleanser from sin, a restorer of
the soul. That truth is found only
in His Word—the Bible. What folly
then for sinful men who need re
demption to see God only in nature,
but never look into His Word or go
to church that they may hear His
truth proclaimed. The final and
perfect revelation of God is in His
Son, Jesus Christ, the Redeemer.
The psalmist with the eye of faith
saw the perfection of God revealed
in His law. We are privileged to
know the Son of God who came not
“to destroy the law . . . but to ful
fill.”
Note the beautiful symmetry of
verses 7-9:
Law perfect... restoring (R.V.)
Testimony sure making wise
Statutes right rejoicing
Commandment... pure enlightening
Fear clean enduring
Judgments true altogether
righteous
Little wonder that the psalmist
says that the words of God are sweet
er than honey, more precious than
gold, and worthy to be heeded and
kept. The great reward of thus
knowing God’s Word is that we may
learn of
III. God’s Grace Revealed in the
Heart of Man (vv. 12-14).
Man is a sinner; sometimes he
sins unwittingly and ignorantly;
sometimes deliberately and in pre
sumption; and sometimes both.
What shall he do with his sin? The
psalmist says to bring it to God in
repentance and prayer for cleans
ing. We may add to his invitation
the admonition to come for cleans
ing in the blood of Christ.
“Come to this fountain, so rich and sweet;
Cast thy poor soul at the Saviour's feet;
Plunge in today, and be made complete;
Glory to His name!”
God’s grace not only cleanses—it
keeps us. He is able and willing to
make not only the words of our
mouth, but the very meditation of
our hearts acceptable in His sight.
That means holy living. There is
nothing more needed in our day
than a revival of Christian living in
the daily responsibilities of life.
Personal purity of heart and motive,
recognition of God’s Word in thought
and life—these things will make the
believer “upright” (v. 13) and re
flect honor and glory on the Lord
who is our “strength” (R. V.
“rock”) “and redeemer” (v. 14).
Principle Holds Good
Except a man become like a little
child, we are told, he cannot enter
into the kingdom of heaven. This
principle holds good in other king
doms as well. Unless we become
as humble as a child and are willing
to be taught we cannot enter into
the kingdom of music, or art, or
knowledge, or scientific agriculture.

I AST week Marty helped to talk
' Grandmother out of her old
buffet. The Martindale family
were in a dither when she told
them that she was going to furnish
a combination guest and sewing
room with the mirror and two
legs of the old buffet; plus some
spools, a butter tub, unbleached
muslin, some old rags and other
odds and ends.
The rags were used for the hook
rug in this sketch of a corner of
that new guest and sewing room.
Directions for the rug and for
making the spool tables shown
her are both in Sewing Book 5.
The mirror was hung end-wise and
is marvelous for fitting dresses.
The muslin drapery was used to
cover the irregular edge of the
mirror and makes just the right
background for the blue spool ta
bles. You can see in the sketch
how the lamps and stool were
made. Next week the bottom shelf
of the buffet will be used and
Achievement
Achievement is the answer to
accepting responsibility, duty.
Why do some rise faster than oth
ers? Answer: They invite respon
sibility—they accept cheerfully
and courageously agreeable and
disagreeable duties, and they do
them promptly.
Gram will teach Marty another
trick or two.

F And_ favorable public

Doan’s under exacting

These physicians, too, approve every word
of advertising you read, the objective of
which is only to recommend Doan’s Pills
as a good diuretic treatment for disorder
of the_ kidney function and for relief of
the pain and worry it causes.
_ If more people were aware of how the
kidneys must constantly remove waste
that cannot stay in the blood without in
jury to health, there would be better un
derstanding of why the whole body suffers
when kidneys lag, and diuretic medica
tion would be more often employed.
Burning, scanty or too frequent urina
tion sometimes warn of disturbed kidney
function. _You may suffer nagging back
ache, persistent headache, attacks of diz
ziness, getting up nights, swelling, puffi
ness under the eyes—feel weak, nervous,
all played out.
Use Doan’s Pills. It is better to rely oa
a medicine that has won world-wide ac
claim than on something less favorably,
known. Ask your neighbor!
