THE USE OF DRAWING INSTRUMENTS' I suppose that you have already had some experience with the T square and triangle and have learnt that the use of the T. square is to draw straight lines at right angles t0 the edges of your board, moving the T square as you may require. You have found that the triangular used in «onnection with the T square either for the drawing of short perpendicular lines or for the drawing of slating lines at any required " i. You must train yourself in and exactness in the handling of these tools. When drawing a line with your T square see that the T re Is always snugly up to the edge of your board, otherwise sagging lines will result and your drawings will be out of square, which is •ious fault in drawings made for reproduction in printing. Treat your tools well, and so keep the Personal Premiere tomed to them you will never quite inexperienced, no matter where you may begin as an actual worker in design.

Never your T square for trimming card paper. If you do you will be s to spoil the edge of your square with the knife. Get a rule with a brass edge for trimming, and never use the good side of your drawing board to trim on. Always turn the board over and use the reverse side for that purpose, even though it may seem inconvenient to do so. Wipe out your ruling-pen whenever you lay it 3 for a time. Clean out your brushes in water when you are done with them and wipe them dry on a cloth. Put the corks in your ink and Chinese white bottles when not in use, and so keep your ink and white good condition, and save them, ides, from many an accidental spill.

Golden Text--Whosoever beiieveth that Jesus is the Christ is begotten of God: and whosoever loveth hii that begat oveth him also that begotten of him. 1 John 5 : 1. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time--St. John, who was probably the youngest of the apostles, outlived them all, his life extending to beyond ninety years and closing near the end of the first century. This letter was probably written near end of his long life, perhaps A.D. Place--Ephesus, John being head of the church in that leading city of Asia Minor. "Whosoever beiieveth that Jesus is the Christ is begotten of God." This thought is found in I John 4 : 2,7; John 1 : 12, 13; 14 : 1, 9, 10; 23. Born of God" is one of John's favorite thoughts. It means that one's spirit springs from God's Spirit, that one is the son of God, loving him and obeying him as a would "And whosoever loveth hiiy that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him." Love j to God and love to man are insepar- j "Hereby we know that we love God and do his commandments." Whenever our love to Gcd is clear, and issues in active obedience to his will, we know by this that our love to his children is real. "For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments." We find this true in our human relationships. If a child does not obey his parents, we are sure that he does not love them. "And his commandments are are not grievous." John is laying down no difficult rule; he is only stating the natural, the inevitable outcome of true love and true obedience, which is joy. whatsoever is begotten of God overcometh the world." Victory promised to the church universal. All that is born of God conquereth Id. "And this is the victory that hath overcome the world, even faith." This is one of the great- j sentences in the Bible. Our faith must mean everything to us, if it to be victorious. I 25 "And who is he that overcometh the world, but he that beiieveth that Jesus is the Son of God?'" The world, the flesh, and the devil are too much for any man. But if we have faith in Jesus Christ, and are linked with him, and Christ is formed in us, the hope of glory--then it is we get the victory over every enemy. "This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ." There may be a reference here to the blood and water which flowed from Christ's side when it was pierced by the spear after his death on the Cross (John 19 : 34), but the simplest interpretation is that which refers water to the baptism of water to which he himself submitted. "Not with (margin, in) the water only, but with (in) the water and with (in) the blood. The water signifies righteousness, whether the reference be to Christ's baptism or to the pierced side or to Christian baptism. "And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is the truth." The idea of witnessing is characteristic of St. John. You may sunt almost eighty instances of it I "For there are three who b itness, the Spirit, and the wa I and the blood: and the throe ag ! in one." By the very constitution our minds we perceive the demand for unity in God. Apart from th: there can be no universe, no rational life at all. "If we receive the witness of : the witness of God is grea Human witness is constantly accepted, in law courts and in common conversation, as establishing facts. All science is built upon human witness. All commerce is founded upon a general belief in human integrity. The witness of men is received. Any message that clearly comes from God is to be accepted by us with a readiness infinitely greater than in the case of mere human testimony. "For the witness of God is this, that he hath borne witness concerning his Son." The entire Bible, in all its sixty-six Books, bears evidence concerning Jesus Christ. Human experience, in all the ups and downs of history, is testimony to the Son of God. "He that beiieveth on the Son of God hath the witness in him." All that God is is revealed in the mar God-born, God-possessed, Good-indwelt. "He that beiieveth not Goc hath made him a liar; because Ik hath not believed in the witness thai God hath borne concerning his Son.' The enormous insult to God that is the sin of every infidel is here plainly set forth. The infidel must believe, either that God did not send his Son into the world,' when he has given us such manifold evidence that he did; or that Jesus Christ wa; not the Son of God, when all th« evidence relates to and terminates upon him; or that he sent his Son to deceive the world, and to lead it into error and misery. "And the witness is this, that God gave unto us eternal life, and this life is in his Son." John began this letter with a strong statement that he had himself known this Eternal Life, which was manifested in the Son of God (1 John 1:2); and he had heard Christ say with equal emphasis, As the Father hath himself, even so gave he the Son also to have life in himself, (John 5 : 26). "He that hath the Son hath the life." The life of which John has been speaking eternal life, life in Christ, the only kind of life worth mentioning. "He that hath not the Son of God hath not the life." Ths converse of what John has just said, but a converse very necessary to be noted. If your life is fruitless and dead, if it lacks joy and abounding vitality, there is only one reason; it lacks Jesus Christ. lice th( imand for pasturage wool and because there for two milion sheep Austrians are being begged by Government to eat mutton, which they despise; it is considered a luxury in Portugal and a delicacy in Italy.
