The Supply Cornea from Food. If we get power from food, why not strive to get all tbe power we can. That is only possible by use of skilfully selected food that exactly tits tbe requirements of tbe body. Poor fuel makes a poor fire and a poor fire is not a good steam producer. "From not knowing how to select tbe right food to Qt my needs I suffered grievously for a long time from stomach troubles." writes a lady from a little town in Missouri. *It seemed as if I would never be able to dud out the Rort of food that was best for me.

In the midst of so much confusion and perplexity about questions relating to religion, nothing is more helpful than to turn to the words of Jesus and find what He taught and believed. We shall find little difficulty in doing this if we confine ourselves to the first three Gospels. If we include the Fourth Gospel, we shall introduce an element of difficulty and confusion. The Fourth Gospel sets a wonderful philosophy about Jesus and His mission. and it relates incidentally some of the events in the life of Jesus. Rut for a simple statement of the words of Jesus Himself, apart from any theological theory about Jesus, we must turn to the other Gospels. There is unquestionably much in these narratives besides the words of Jesus, much that betokens misapprehension and misconstruction on the part of those that heard Him. and an attempt to interpret His words and deeds as a confirmation of the materialistic hopes and expectations of His followers. But the utterances of Jesus Himself on the great and vital questions of spiritual religion are so exalted and so self-evident that we shall find no difficulty in discovering them. What Goes Jesus tench about God. about Man. about Si% and Righteousness. about Redemption, about the kingdom of God upon earth? We might include other questions, such as the nature of Divine Revelation, the Church and its Sacraments and Rites, etc. But these are minor and subordinate matters. What docs Jesus teach about Cod? Strange to say. Jesus has nothing to state about God, after the manner of the theologians and creeds. He entered upon no metaphysical discussion about the nature of God. He never mentions the doctrine of a Trinity. "He had unquestioned faith in God as a liviug. conscious, intelligent agent. This faith came to Him by inheritance, and was received by Hint as the indispensable and indisputable presupposition of all religion." Jesus took the highest thought about God in the Hebrew religion, the conception of God as the Eternal Father of men. and expanded and purified it. He interpreted this idea by His own sublime and spotless moral consciousness. He saw the truth of the Divine Fatherhood through the medium of His own loving and righteous soul. The thought of God as the ever-preseut Spirit of righteousness and love was u constantly besetting thought with Jesus. lie lived and moved and had His being in this consciousness of the Father's presence. He saw the ceaseless operation of the Father's love and goodness and care for all things. The whole universe was encompassed by the Father's love. lie loves and pities and provides for all. Even His wicked and unthankful and prodigal children are provided for. His rain descends and His sun shines for the evil and the good alike. Jesus did not think of the Father as a far-off and inaccessible Deity, but as a near and indwelling Presence. He did not offer any explanatiov of the mystery of this wonderful truth; He simply believed it, and lived and wrought and taught with this thought perpetually in His mind, with its inspiration in His soul. God was a living reality to Jesus. What did Jesus teach about man? The thought of Jesus about man and human nature might be summarized In the words, "Man is the child of Clod." This truth had been expressed by others before Jesus, but it bad never been taught in the way that Jesus taught it. No prophet or teacher before Jesus had ever drawn such inferences from the belief, or made it the basis of such an appeal to man's faith in his own spiritual and moral possibilities. Jesus shows everywhere that He had a deep and uushaken faith in the essential divineness and worth of nil men, whatever man's character might be, whatever the outward and accidental deformity of the life. No matter how far the prodigal might have wandered from his father's home, he was still his father's child. He might deny liis birthright and eat with the swinr, but the father's love never ceases and never wanes. Jesus, faith in th? essential dlvineness of man is shown in His treatment of all men, especially of the outcast and the sinner. He loved the outcast, the fallen, "the lost sheep of the house of Israel." He bad compassion upon them, because He knew bow they had been tempted, bow they had boon aught and brought up, how they hail been neglected and left to wander "like sheep without a sh"pherd," losing themselves in the wilderness and missing the true goal cf life. Oh, the divine compassion of Jesus for man. the, deep-veined humanity, the eternal love of the Father breathing through Him and looking out through His pure eyes! It is this last that has made His name forever blessed, and turned the hearts of the lost and fallen sons of men to Him as the dearest pledge and symbol of the eternal love and compassion that is at the heart and is the great heart of the world. What does Jesus say about sin? Strange to say, very little. Jesus never speaks about sin In a formal or theological way. He saw it; He felt Its presence and witnessed its degradation of the lives of men. He saw it as the negation of goodness, as the absence of the abundant life, the blindness of the lost child, the impotence ot the ignorant and foolish, wounding themselves against the terrible rocks of the world. But of "original sin," of "total depravity," of a "fall of the race in Adam," of "Imputed guilt." of those doctrines of sin that form the basis of the entire theological "scheme, of salvation," there is not a syllable from the lips of Jesus. Jbsus everywhere and always assumes the essential divineness of the human soul. The lost sheep belongs to the fold of the Good Shepherd; the lost coin, though battered and bruised, is of precious metal, and bears the image and superscription of the kina; the lost boy?the prodigal?is his father's child, 110 matter liow far he has wandered or how deep his moral degradation. * What did Jesus teach about "Salvation?" IIow Is the lost restored? IIow is the prodigal brought back to his father's home? What does Jesus say about this? Isthere auy elaborate creed, or any? creed, to be accepted? Does He tell I of salvation or of any atoning sacrifice? Hot a single word. The whole thing Is simple and natural, and true to the fundamental facts and laws of the moral and spiritual constitution of man. Take the parable of the "lost sheep" and the "prodigal son." How does the Good Shepherd seek His lost sheep? How does the Father restore the lost child? The Divine mercy and love seeks and influences the children of men in countless ways. God seeks man in the very fact that sin itself is foreign to man's higher natu-e. The h'fe of ^jti, of alienation from goodness, is a disappointment Its pleasures are apples of Sodom. The evil course, in the end, exhausts itself. The prodigal gets to the end of his resources; then he recalls that he is his father's child. It is so with all kinds of sin. In the laws of man's moral and spiritual being, it is ordained that there shall be a reaction of the divine, the good in man. against the evil withjn and around him. I do not know how far men may go toward destroying the possibilities of good in themselves. No finite mind can dogmatize on such a question. I only know that Jesus never despaired, and that He teaches us to despair of no man. In seeking and restoring sinful men to their true lives, the ministry of a loving and sympathetic humanity has the largest place of any other Instru mentality. It is a continuation of the ministry of Jesus. His ministry was not in His wonls alone: it was chiefly in His wonderful personality. His gentleness, His faith in man, inspired faith and hope and courage in those lie ministered to. Men are sought and found through goodness and love and pity in their feilow-nicn. Jesus said: "Do good, despairing of no man:" "Be merciful, even as your Father in heaven is merciful:" "If ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will forgive you." Make the heavenly Father real to men by being incarnations of His love and goodness. The love of God is seen chiefly in love and pity in the heart of man. lis, the ancient liturgy of the Church there is a phrase that says. "God hath given power and commandment to His ministers to declare and pronounce to His people, being penitent, the absolution and remission of their sins." There is a wonderful truth in those ancient words. God hath given such power, not to ordained clergymen alone, but to every sympathetic and ministering soul. The law of divine forgiveness and spiritual renewal is the central law of the evangel of Jesus. I stand by the side of a man in the spiritual agony of remorse. He has drunk the horrible cup of iniquity. He is sin-sick. He feels the crushing burden of his own wrong-doing. He longs for deliverance, for ease of conscience, for a sense of divine forgiveness. lie is sorry for his sin. The inward dark ~ 1 1\ne nrAinotOfl its'plf I1CSS Ol Ilia 9UU1 AJilO jnvjwuu ... upon tlio heavens. He thinks that Cod is angry with him. lie is afraid of liis Father. 1 Love re-creatcs the soul, and the man becomes "a new creation." He begins to live a new life and to light a winning battle with sin and temptation. Ho knows and feels that a power is in him that is all sufficient for every need and every emergency of his life. All this is of the free grace and iove of the Father. "Not by works of righteousness that we have done, but according to His mercy He saves us." The relationof a childtoa father does not stand upon any legal formality: it is not conditioned upon any service that may be done by the child. This is pre-eminently true of the relation between the Heavenly Father and His human children. The love and grace of Cod come through no contract. St. Paul tells of those who live as servants in the Father's house. Their spirit is one of bondage, not of joyous trust and spiritual freedom. The effort to obtain the ser.se of forgiveness and spiritual peace and joy by a diligent discharge of duty ? leaves tlie tender conscience m uwuuc i and fear, because "tbe commandment | is so exceeding broad" that at best man's endeavors must be imperfect, or else it leads to Pharisaic self-complacency. It turns the moral life into a legal routine of duty. Between that kind of legal service which we may render under hone of winning God's favor, and the free service to which we are constrained by the sense of divine sonship and love, the distance is immeasurable. It is to Jesus that the world is indebted for showing us this, and enabling us to pass from the state of servile obedience to a God wliom we fear, to the joyous service of a Father whom we love. We accept this view of raintinn hptwcpn our souls and God upon the authority of Josus -as our great Master and Leader in the things of the spirit, as from one "who stands supremely above us in spiritual insight. Love creates a loving and obedient life. It destroys selfishness from the heart. It makes character; and character is salvation, in this and in all worlds. The kingdom of heaven on earth is the kingdom of love, a society of men and women who live the loving and Christ-like life; who believe that this is Cod's world, and who live upon this principle every day; who believe that all men are brothers and sons of God, and act toward all men as if they really believed this. These principles of the religion of Jesus are gaining more and more in the world, in spite of all that appears to the contrary. The kingdom of God is surely coming on earth. The Fatherhood of God, the Brotherhood of Man. the moral and spiritual Leadership of Jesus, Salvation by Character, inspired by love, the Progress of Mankind onward and upward forever?this is the faith of essential and spiritual Christianity; and some day it will be accepted as the true interpretation of the religion of Jesus. If the Army and Navy Journal correctly translates an article In the Artillery Journal of St. Petersburg, the wonder is, not that the Russians were whipped in Manchuria, but that they made so good a showing as they did, comments the New York Press. The article referred to gives an account of an examination held last year at the Esarkoe-Selo School of Application, where Russian captains of artillery go through an eight-months' course before taking over the command of a battery. The examinations were taken by forty-six officers, some of them having twenty-five years of service. Of these eighteen had never read the authorized text book on field artillery firing, and of the twenty-eight who had. only six asserted that they understood the principles therein laid flown. To the question whether they knew the rules of firing, sixteen replied in the negative and twenty-eight had never read even an elementary book on field tactics.

Belshazzar, only sixteen or seventeen years old. was the ruling king in the city of Babylon. Secure within his defenses, lie felt confident of safety, and therefore engaged in revelry at a feast which he made to a thousand of his lords. In his drunken folly and wickedness he called for the golden and silver vessels which had been taken from the temple at Jerusalem, that he might drink from them as a token that his gods had given victory over the God of the Jews. During this profane revelry a hand appeared and wrote upon the wall. This filled the king with fears, and he declared that the wise man who should interpret the meaning should be clothed with scarlet and have a chain of gold, and be third ruler in the kingdom. When all had failed, the queen, mother of Belshazzar. came In and persuaded her son to send for Daniel, to whom, when lie came, the king repeated his promise made to tlie wise men. , II.

"Deposed." This occurred not by the rebellion of his people. but by the direct visitation of God. He became insane. 21. "He was driven." The madness that fell upon him induced him to forsake society and to run to the woods and deserts, where he lived like a wild beast. 22. "Thou?hast not humbled." Thou hast sinned, not through ignorance. but through deliberate contempt of God. regardless of all warning. 23. "Against the Lord."

They profaned these vessels to show their contempt for Jehovah. It was an open insult to the Almighty. 24. "Hand sent from Him." From dorp Hi. namei interpreting me wrmng (vs. 25-2S). 12.". "The writing." The words were Aramaic, with letters like llie Hebrew. Wliy could not the wise men read them? Perhaps they could read the words but were not able, or did not dare, to explain their meaning. 12C. "Meue." This word is repeated to give emphasis. It comes from a word meaning to number, to count. The days of the empire were counted out in full. The soldiers of the conqueror were awaiting outside and would destroy it before morning. 27. "Tekel." Which moans weighed (hence a shekel, which was originally a certain weight). It resembles a word which signities "light." light of weight, like a counterfeit coin. The application is that Belsbazzar had been weighed as to his moral character and actions, and had been found wanting, of light weight. He had not come up to the standard required. God had tested him aud he had failed. 2S. "Peres." This is the singular, while upliarsin is the plural of the same word with "u." which means "and." prefixed. It is given in verse 25 in the plural, for emphasis, just as "mene" is doubled. It means divided, but has the same consonants as Percionc nn/1 en rrorncfc thnni **Tc (livid. ed."

It must be understood that the Iiiver Euphrates flowed through the midst of Babylon. Cyrus for some time had been planning to draw away the water of the river and enter the city through the bed of the river. When all was prepared he waited lor the great feast. When it came all the leadeis were reveling in the palace. Elsewhere the population was occupied with feasting and dancing (.Ter. Jl: 39i. Drunken riot and mad excitement held possession of the town: the siege was forgotten: ordinary precautions, as the closing of the river gates (Isa. 45: 1), were neglected. The undefended gateways were seized; a wfr shout was raised: the alarm was spread. The drunken revelers could make no resistance. The king, paralyzed with fear at the handwriting which had warned him of his peril, could do nothing to check the progress of the assailants. who carried all before them everywhere. Bursting into the palace a band of Persians made their way into the presence of the king and slew him. Signature Thieves.

H. Clay Evans said recently that a big percentage of the government's documents have been robbed of their signatures. The signatures, if of value, have been cut out by thieves. Hence xne precautions uuu are timeii to-day. Autograph hunting is thought to be not very common, and yet so many hundreds of the signatures of Was! ington, Hamilton, Burr, Lincoln Jr ferson, etc., have beer, stolen frc governmental documents that it c pears as if every American citizen, cseeing a good autograph, feels that hehas the moral right to lift it.

Pointed to yon westward strand 3y Columbia's murmuring cascades. Long and lone her tireless quest. S'ow she sleeps, but still awaits him With her face toward the west. Drifting sands above her mingle. Happy homes bedeck her plain. Still her spirit sings and murmurs In Columbia's wild refrain. -Bert Huffman In New York Herald Graee cannot grow by greed.
