In each compartment also is the silk or skein of mending material to match, Gloves are kept in linen sachets which she makes and tissue paper goes between best pairs.

It cleanses, soothes and perfumes. Instead of scrubbing hearth tiles, rub them with floor or furniture polish. They will look much cleaner and take on a splendid pelish.

Golden Text--As ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.--Luke 6. 31. ANALYSIS. I. THE HEART OF A CHILD, Mark 10: 13-16. II. THE GREAT CHOICE, Mark 10: 17-22. III. THE WEALTHY CHRISTIAN, Mark 10: 23-27, Introduction--Following the teach- ing of last day's lesson, J2sus empha- sized . the strenuous demands of his religion, Mark 9: 44-50. The revo- ti y ch ter of his teaching is brought out in his argument with the Pharisees, Mark 10, 1-12. The ideal marriage is a permanent b.nd. Jesus places the two sexes on an equal foot- ne, a hitherto unheard-of thing in the ast. I. THE HEART OF A CHILD, Mark 10: 13-16, He then goes on to set up new stan- dards for admission into the Chris- tian fellowship. The blessing of the children shows the young man of thirty cuddling little babies "in the crook of his arm" (the literal mean- ing of "in his arms"). It is a gracious picture. Mothers have him "touch" them--or have them touch him. Ital- jan peasants today bring their chil dren to receive the blessing of a Car- dinal, or to touch the relic of some saint, The disciples said, "These young- sters are a nuisance, take them away!" These old-minded oung men would not think much of "Young Wor- shipers' Leagues." "No," said Jesus. "Let them come. It is to such as these that my kingdom belongs." It is the outlook of the child that is needed in religion. To a child the unseen realities are very real. Words- worth, in his Intimations of Immor- tality, writes: . « o + Trailing clouds of glory do we come t From God, who is our home: Heaven lies about us in our infancy! But as we grow older, it grows more dim until: At length the Man perceives it dic away, And fade into the light of common day. HN i To a child there are.no social dis- tinctions. "I wish you would find an- other little boy to play with," said a her boy. He replied, per- thousands of watch mainsprings, mak- business/good for repairers, to "But, mother, he is a nice boy. Miss Batt, one of the entrants in the recent Hampstead, England, ténnis tournament, believes in being up-and-at-em as exemplified in the suggested alternatives). He wouldn't do the things they do." He could not understand ' his mother's point of view. He knew only that his friend was a nice, good boy. To him, that was enough. Would Jesus agree with him? The child deals with realities all the ti own-ups, occasionally. The child "receives" the kingdom. He dees mot try to buy it, because it never occurs to him that he has "won his own way" to success. II. Tue GrzAaT CHOICE, 17-22 The new standard is now discussed in its relation to money, The young man wanted to know how he could get the best kind of life. 'Jesus, look- ing upon him, loved him," that is, was very much taken with him, He halts the inquirer's enthusiasm by telling him that no one is good but God. Jesus refuses to take credit to L.mself independently of his Father. A Christian saint might say, "Not I, but Christ; so Jesus says, "Not I, but my Father." The young man had been accustom- ed to observe the law, but now, dis- satisfied, he feels that there must be something higher. Jesus, putting his finger on his weakness, said, "Sell all you have. . . ." The young man lost the kingdom because he was not will- ing" to lose his property for it. Jesus wanted him, but he wanted him poor. We can sympathize with the disci- les who could not understand this! his passage doesnot mean that every wealthy man must give away his wealth when he becomes a Christian. It may be a much more difficult and Christian thing to administer prop- erty wisely than simply to dispose of it. In this man's case, the love of money seems to have had such a hold on him that to get rid of it was the only remedy. Jesus had no place among his followers for a man who uts property rights ahead of his re- gion, young man made his great choice, and went away ng. III. THE WEALTHY CHRISTIAN, Mark 10; 23-27. Jesus says that it is almost im- possible for a rich man i> become part of the brotherhood. He had a aunting dread of the deadening pow- er of money in a man's spiritual life, The making of it does not tend to cultivate the qualities that make for brotherhood. Once made, it erects a barrier. It requires a might; demon- stration of good will to overcome the undue deference, the diffidence, or the suspicion with which the world so often looks upon a rich man, v. 23. This teaching was quite "beyond" the disciples, v. 24. The more money the worshipper had when he went to Je- rusalem to worship, the more splen- did his part in it would be. But, Jesus 'went on, not only will it be difficult for a man who puts his money first, it will be impossible for him to enter the brotherhood. Verse 25, quoting a current proverbial phrase, is to be 'taken literally. It does mot Mark 10: "| within .25 degree Centigrade of the '| as a preliminary to creation of a per-] | Christ must have the throne in our This achivement of W. F. Giauque, 'assisted by C. F. Nelson, mechanician, was accomplished by use of a mag- netic cycle process which Prof. Giau- que developed. The mark reached is absolute absence of heat. Experi- menters generally have held attain- ment of practical zero is essential to solution of numerous scientific prob- lems. : Among theories advanced is that the practical absence of heat is necessary fect vacuum, that new low tempera- hearts. Not even money, masterful as it is, may usurp that position, If the rich man cannot get in, what about the rest of 1s? To sccomplish it, says Jesus, will be nothing short of a miracle--a miracle of grace, v. 27. "So opposed to current deas was such a thought, that the disciples, ac- customed to think that wealth meant happiness, were amazed. If the same doctrine were proclaimed in any great commercial centre today, it would ex- cite no less astonishment. AY least, many Christians and others' live as if the opposite were true. Wealth possessed, and not trusted in, but used aright, may become a help towards eternal life; but wealth as commonly regarded may be a curse." ------r------ Man Leaves Position To His Wife by Will A woman is to take her husband's place as chairman of directors of a company of brassfounders. This is the remarkable condition laid down in the will of Frederick Machman Watson of Rotherham, Yorkshire, Eng., a civil engineer, who left estate of the gross value of £69, 264, with net personality £59,017. Mr. Watson was chairman and managing director of a Rotherham firm of brassfounders, and in his will Le stated that he 'desired his wife to be in the same position as he (at the time of his death) and that she should, after his death, be appointed chairman of directors of the said company, and that the company should pay to her the same salary as he was receiving from it at the time of his death.

Home of Future Novel Parisian Edifice Built of Glass, Steel, and "Rubber Paris.--Behind the walls of an old- fashioned mansion in the heart of Paris has been built the "Home of Tomorrow" --a remarkable edifice of glass, steel and rubber with perman- ent-sunshine "on top." . This is the town house of Dr. Jean Dalsace, a wealthy French sportsman, art collector ard noted doctor, and was designed as an experiment by M. Pierre Chareau, a leading architect. Passing through the very normal courtyard portals at No. 31 Rue St. Guillaume, Faubourg St. Germain, the unsuspecting visitor comes upon this surprising house. To build this house the architect 'ore down the three lower storeys of an old mansion, the top of this super-modern home and serve as servants' quarters, The outer alls are composed of thick glass tiles set in steel frames, giving a net-like effect. These are not transparent but they admit plenty of light. TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED. Within this "Home of the Year 2000" are vents which shoot currents of warm air through the floors, the temperature thus obtained being tem- pered by ventilators in the walls. Nevertheless the temperature permits of the free growth of cactuses, orch- ids and other tropical plants. The floors are composed of rubber tiles which muffle footsteps, yet are specially made to permit dancing. Levels change gradually so that most staircases are eliminated. There are no interior walls, prop- erly speaking, but mere partitions of steel netting or painted metal. The lighting system is, however, the triumph of the architect. This is provided by six huge reflectcrs out- side the building. When the lights are switched on these reflectors throw a strong glare through the tiles of the walls, giving a perfect illusion of sun- shine, a ST Banknote History Fills 110 Specimen Volumes London.--A banknote history of the world has been collected by a Lon- doner.
