The First Specimen The first platinum ,Mous, was born on the farm of a poor tisher- man who owned only a few ani- mals, It was so pale that there was thought of destroying it as de- «< trimental to the breed.

We Should Preach Merits of Can=da Boosters For the Country Are Needed, Says Ontario's Min. ister of Agriculture Agriculture Minister Dewan told the graduating class of the Ontario Veterinary College of Guelph that "preachers" are Reeded to tell of the merits and advantages ot Can- ada as compared with other coun- tries. Observing that . successful bus- Iness men are ones who are "in a degree venturesome" and that the graduates should have an objective as they go out into business, Mr. Dewan said: "Someone will say it is all very well to talk, but we ate entering upon our chreers In times of econ- omic stress. Wel, I fear that a great deal of our trouble in this country Is~ due to an unhealthy state of mind, [ sometimes think that what we require most Is a body of force- tul preachers with the power to.

Acts 28:1, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.--All . of the events re- corded in these six chapters oc- curred A.D. 58 to 60. Place,--Jerusalem and rea. In the former part of chapter 21, we have an account of Paul's reception 'when he came to Jeru- salem on the last yisit which he ever paid to the Holy City. 21:40, And when he had given bim leave, Paul, standing on the stairs, beckoned with the hand un- "to the people; and when there was made 4.great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew langu- age, saying, 22:1, Brethren and fathers, hear ye the defence which I now make unto you, 2. And when they teard that he spake un- to them in the Hebrew language, they were the more quiet: and he caith, 3. I am a Jew, bora in Tar- sus of Cilicia, but brought. up in- this city, ot the feet of Gamaliel, instructed according to the strict manner of the law of our fathers being zealous for God, even as ye all are this day: 4. and [ persecut- ed this Way unto the death, bind- ing and delivering into prisons both men and women. - The charg- es against Paul which were made by this multitude were absolutely false. Felix was a brother of the fa- vorite of the Emperor Claudius, appointed to be procurator in Pal- Caesa- estine, who had married the grand-daughter of Antony and Cleopatra. He arrived in Pales- tine in A.D. 52, The cynical™dis- regard of Felix for justice and his: inordinate greed are both brought to view in his treatment of the apostle Paul. How easily and courageously and manfully Paul conducts himself before this Ro- man officer. From a- denial of false charges he proceeds to an affirmation of his faith. . Talks To Guilty People 14. But this IT confess unto thee, that after the Way which they call a sect, so"serve I the God of our fathers, believing all things which are according "to the law, and which are written in the prophets; 15. having hope toward God, which these also themselves look - for, that there shall be a resurrec- tion both of the just and unjust, 16. Herein I also exercise myself ~ to have a conscience void of of- fence toward God and men always. The apostle proceeds to tell Felix exactly what had happened in the temple; and then he challenges his accusers to contradict with any adequate evidence the statement he has made. This was enough for Felix. He would not himself give a decision this day, but he would wait for further evidence. After certain days the apostle was, sent for, and this time spoke not only to Felix but to his wife Drusilla, the ybungest of three daughters of Herod Agrippa I, who was mar- ried in A.D. 53 to Azizus, the king of Emesa, but who not long after- wards wasepersuaded by this very person, Felix, to leave her hus- -band-and-to-join-him- as-his-third- wife. This time Paul did not offer any defense of his actions, but preached a_ 'sermon of searching power to these wicked people, on righteousness and temperance and "judgment to come. Once again there is no verdict; charges have not been "praved, Paul is not convicted, yet he is not set free. Thank God also, Paul'is not broken, nor is he now in any mood to compromise. The longer the trial goes on, the great- er a man Paul appears to be, Before Festus and Agri After two years Felix was Sue ceeded by one Jorcius Festus, as procurator' of Judaea. - The Jews, still seeking the death of Paul, tried to persuade Festus to send Paul down to Jerusalem from Cae- sarea, hoping to kill him on the - road; .but Festus refused, insist- ing that the Jews come up from Jerusalem instead, and bring their charges once more into the Ro- man court, "which they could not' prove." There was nothing else, for Festus to do but.to accede to' Paul's request, and sooner or lat- er send him up to Rome for. final -trial. It happened about this time that Herod Agrippa 1I, king of Chaleis, with his sister Berenice, came on a complimentary visit to the new a and stayed some days. Fdstus took advantage of this op- . portunity of consulting one better informed than himself on the points _ in question. Paul was brought before Agrippa. °. 19.

GARDENING Dahlias, 'tomatoes, large cosmos or nicotine, young shade trees, new climbers, all benefit from some ar- tificial support while they are get- ting started. For tall individual flowers or to- matoes, 6-.foot stakes of -wood or steel are advisable and the plant is tied to thesewlbosely with soft twine or rafiia. Stouter and perhaps longer stakes will be used with "trees, and correspondingly shorter" ones for the 'smaller flow- ers, With .vines getting ready to cling to fence or wall, string is uged or perhaps adhesive tape or staples where it is impossible to tie. FILLING IN It 13 a good plan, old gardeners state, to use started annual flower plants of the kinds mentioned above for planting among tulips and other spring. flowering bulbs which "will be past their best in a few" more weeks. They need some- thing to hide dying foliage. Then "again quick growing annuals will always be useful for filling any blind spots in the perennial beds where Winter has-been unusually severe, GARDEN PESTS Garden insect enemies are divid- ed into two groups,--those that eat holes in the foliage and_those that suck out the juices. For the first named, poison is usually applied, while the suckers -are attacked with-a-burning spray which pene: trates." Often when both are pre- seqt, a combination of poison. and something that burns, such as lime sulphur and arsongte, gives the best 'results, The damage from-the. bit- and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judaca, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance. All the years since his conversion had Paul tried to do nothing but obey this command. from heaven, and yet because of this obedience id the Jews desire to put him Ito death. 21.

'how that the Christ must suf- fer, and how that he first by the resurrection of the dead should proclaim light both to the people and to the Gentiles. And what of the verdict? There has not been a true official verdict passed upon the apostle Paul in _ all these different trials, and there i3 no official verdict passed here, but Agrippa and Festus both agreed that this man had done no- thing worthy of death or of bonds, and might have beén set at liber- ty, if he had not appealed unto Paul must go to Rome!
