My greatest trouble is the winter snow, which hides my food, and covers itsorl walk and walk, with red, wet feet, and hardly find enough to eat." To welcome tthe spring, my name I sing. In summer's drought I'm out---on a stump, calling rain and dew from the far-away that looks so blue. "More wet!

I wish that TI had ask mother about my little hood, because I can't remember farther back than my tail feathers. I want to know why I wear a hood. I heard mother say that she was married in May, and she went to housekeeping at the sign of the Meadow Rué, where Stone Wall Mall crosses South Sea Avenue. Father helped select the softest green moss for carpets; the sweet- est, driest grass-forebedding; and whitest thistledown for cushions.

Tf the weather was clear, and no danger near, father would say, in his own braye way, "A-l-l r-i-g-h-t}"? If it looked like rain, or a squall on the main, again and again he would cheerily proclaim, "All right !" It was father's way to sing a cheerful Jay on every kind of day! At dawn, he'd say, "Day--day light!' At noon, |"How--how bright!' At eventimé, "All--all right! Mrs.--Mrs. White! Good --good--night !" One morning, when we were near- ly grown, father took us potato- bugging. We had a feast, and help- ed the farmer besides, but I am sorry to say that some one repaid our kind act with a eruel one. Full of happiness,--and bugs,-- we were just going home, when--bang! went agun. We were frightened, and we flew to the long grass, where we hid for a while. All. except father. : When mother had called '"'Kluie, kluie !"? many times, we found her, But we never saw father again. By our coloring we can hide from our foes, but from a gun we cannot hide. One day in the grainfield, some- thing began in the farther corner, and quickly came toward us, mak- ing a sound like "r-r-z-z-2-z !"' "Sit tight !'? cried Mother White, with all her might, and before I knew what I was doing, I answered "All ri-ght! Ma--ma White !'"' My song had come, and it was just like father's! It was a proud moment for me. When the sound was near, we saw that it was made by a mowing ma- chine, and we were in its way. We children were greatly frightened. The winter was long, and except for that man's help we should. have starved. er After the rye that he had left 'had fallen, in widwinter, he came out every day and scattered grain on the snow. I know one thing,--and that is,--I will show my gratitude to him in the potato patch!" We do not always sing the same song.

And as he was going forth into the way---Jesus is com- ing into the highway, perhaps fro some house where he has stopp for a time on his way to Jerusa- lem. There ran one to him--Matthew says that he was a "young man" and Luke that he was a "ruler," probably a ruler of the synagogue, a man of position and influence and great wealth. Kneeled to him--Showing his earnestness and his desire to pay homage to this distinguished teach- er. It is more than likely that this young man knew of the grow- ing opposition to Jesus on the part of the Jewish authorities, and he shows great courage in coming to him in this way. Good Teacher--The young man regarded Jesus as a distinguished rabbi, and used the customary re- spectful address of a pupil. Eternal life--The Jews used this term to mean the blessings of the Messianic kingdom. 18. And Jesus said unto him, Why ecallest thou me good ?--Doubt- less Jesus thought the man's ideas of goodness superficial, and he wished to stimulate him to deeper thought. He went away sorrowful--He was disappointed because of his failure to obtain the object of his quest ; but the cost of true disciple- ship seemed to him too great. Sup- pose he had obeyed Jesus, and be- come one of the-pillars of the early church, he might have rendered a service as great as Paul. Would he have had cause to regret the sacrifice of his' riches? 23. How hardly shall they that ave righeg enter jato the king- om of God!--Wealth can give many advantages. 'To those who possess it in large measure if must be very éasy to depend upon it en- tirely for what one needs and de- sires, and gradually to trust in riches rather than in God. A man of large wealth is likely to become exclusive in his associations, un- sympathetic with 'his less fortunate brothers, and to '"'lose the com- mon touch.' The life of such a man would have little room for the qualities of humility, teachableness, and open-mindedness such as Jesus saw in the children whom he bless- ed and commended to his disciples as essential qualifications for en- trance into his kingdom. 25. Oriental teachers frequently used such extreme paradoxical comparisons. Jesus meant to ex- press in the strongest form the im- possibility of having wealth or po- sition accepted as qualifications for the Kingdom, and the difficulty rich men have in entering it. 26. They were astonished exceed- ingly--The disciples, like all Jews, had regarded rich men as favored of God. Those who were looking forward to the setting up of a tem- poral kingdom expected that pro- sperity would abound with righte- ousness. Hence their question, 'Then who can be saved 3" None is good save one, even God --It is difficult to know just what Christ meant by these words. It is possible that this ruler Jesus good merely for politeness' sake, and that Jesus wished to lead him to see in him a greater good- ness, for Jesus "thought it not rob- bery to be equal with God.' On the other hand, the human nature of Jesus, though sinless during his earthly life, was not good in the absolute sense in vhich God is good. Jesus was tempted as we are (Heb. 2. 18; 4. 15). He learned obedience (Heb. 5. '8.) and was per- fected through sufferings (Heb. 2. 10). God cannot be tempted with evil, neither does he advance "in. goodness. Jesus could, therefore, truthfully say, "None is good, that js, absolutely, save one, even God."' 19. Thou knowest the command- ments--According to Jewish ideas, the mind of God was revealed in the commandments. They. would, therefore, answer the question of the young man. The commandments mentioned are those of the second Decalogue, except the tenth, which is represented by the precept, "'Do not defraud." 20. Teacher--Note that the re- spectful attitude of the young man toward Jesus is maintained throughout the conversation. All these things have I observed from my youth--These words, which were without doubt true.. present 'a beautiful picture of the home life and early training of this young man who grew up to love the Lord and to. cheerfully obey | his commandments. Yet he reveals: '| a secret feeling that the keeping of '| these commandments was not enough. According to Matthew, he asks the question, '""What lack I yet?' : Pers = = 2 ain 21. Jesus looking upon him loved the story ! How glad we are to know that the loving heart of our Saviour was drawn towards this earnest, sincere, upright young man. One thing thou' lackest--He had never gone beyond the external observances of the law. He had re- frained from doing evil, but there fis a positive, active side to good- ness, including a denial of self and a contribution to the welfare of others. ee re translated ' 'clouded over, = ring to the sky called } him--How this statement enriches | 2. His countenance fell -- The | word here translated "fell" is-~Ise- O05 with God--He has command of all forces and his Spirit influences in ways which we cannot understand. 28. We, that is, the disciples, have left all, and have followed thee--No doubt they were contrast- ing their action with that of the rich young man who refused to give up his wealth and follow Jesus. Matthew adds that the disciples asked, "What then shall we have?" 29, 30--The relationships of the Kingdom will take the place of the relatives or possessions which it had been necessary for the disciples to leave when they entered the ser- vice of Christ. And he promises that spiritual possessions will com- pensate a hundredfold for the loss of those temporal. 31. Many that are first shall be last--The disciples were Christ's nearest earthly friends, and among the first to. believe on him. But Jesus warns them that they are not necessarily entitled to preeminence nor to any exclusive rights to his blessing. 27. All things are possible $5 "'Granny's" Tribute. The Rev. Mr. Lawrence had boarded for so Jong a time with the Granby family that when he was obliged to. remove to a new field of labor, the family keenly felt his loss. <The best pastor we've ever had in this town," declared Father Granby. heartily. "I don't expect to see his equal again." "Such good company,' said. Mo- ther Granby; "and so sympathetic if the least thing went wrong."'-- -4'He was the easiest man to cook for I ever knew," contributed Aunt, Ann. "He was always satisfied | with what he had to eat, and he never grumbled," es eas "He had such a serene disposi- tion,' sighed Sister Laura.

The streets of | of shambling youth and slouching age. When fashion adds to the per- versity of humankind such fantastic exaggerations as the "debutante's slouch," the situation becomes very discouraging. The community would be healthier if round backs: were considered vulgar instead of fashionable. The correction of this wide- spread fault is simple enough if we would, only apply ourselves to it. A good carriage is purely a matter of habit, a 'habit' of the spinal column. You need not make painful efforts to hold up your head or throw out your chest; simply insist that the spinal column shall do its legiti- mate work of supporting the trunk, and your carriage will take care of itself. The spinal column is some- thing of a shirker, especially as it nears the head, which often falls so much out of line 'that it causes the chest to become sunken and the whole body to sag forward. With some people this slouching habit is so confirmed that they will go through a course of gymnastic exer- cises and hold the body in a wholly wrong position all the time. Then they will declare with disgust that they "don't believe in exercise." There is one simple way to ddis- cipline a spine that is disposed to shirk its duty; train yourself to feel the back of your collar without lifting your chin. Do it as you read this article, and prove to yourself how well the rest of the body then takes care of itself. An erect car- riage is something that anyone who is not deformed can have. It is not a matter of muscular strength. Many persons who haye very strong muscles slouch through life like weakling. The gain to health that an erect spine causes is enormous. The cir- culation is equalized, the entire di- gestive system becomes more active, the head grows clearer, the ¢golor improves, and deep breathing be- comes natural and easy. -- Youth's Companio?. Ptomaine Poisoning. Deaths from ptomaine poisoning still occur fairly frequently. 'The substances known as ptomaine are certain alkaloids, resulting from | the activity of certain germs or bac- teria, which bring about the decom- position of animal matter. Often ptomaine poisoning follows the eat- ing of sausages or pork pie, or other preparations in which the freshness or staleness of the meat is not read- ily discoverable. The symptoms vary especially in the suddenness of the onset. Often there are initial |The Deeds a OUR LEOPARDIZED NATURE x " Man Performs Wil | Not Change the +e Spots on His Character Tt is impossible for any chang? to affect the nature of a man unless that, change is wrought by Jesus Christ in 'completely altering his en- tire nature. Sin cannot be over- come and the tendencies of sin can- not. be checked in any other way. It is folly for men to preach any other doctrine. It is not impossible for the Ethiopian to change his skin? There is no process known to science whereby the color of the skin of a human being can be changed. The nature of man is more fixed than the color of his skin. Is there any process in nature, science or mechanics whereby the leopard can change his own spots? 'The spots on a@ man's character put there by the fall are more fixed than the spots on a leopard. Is it possible for the man to do good, as the result of natural re- quirements, whose nature leads him in the paths of wickedness, un- righteousness and evil? It would be easier for the Ethiopian to change his skin and the leopard to remove his spots than for the depraved na- ture to produce the fruits of righte- ousness. A Man's Desti ny is fixed by the tendencies and de- pravity of his own nature. A man can't lift himself by his own boot- straps; neither can he change his own nature by the artificial means provided by himself. That is the reason Christ said: "Marvel not that I said unto thee, ye must be born again." Nature is produced by birth. You can't pub on a na- ture; it must be generated, You may throw around an unre- generated man the restraints of the law, the environments of so- ciety and the rules of college life, but you will never change his na- ture. He still loves darkness bet- ter than light, and when the proper opportunity comes he will forget. his environment, the strong arm of the law and the © beautiful rulé¥ taught in college and will plutiffé into the things that 'his nature - craves, ; It is folly for men to devise plans of salvation, because every plan devised and every religion inaugu- Sey rated and every cult to-day being offered to the people is of humah origin and has unchanged and if: moral natures for a basis. All of these fictitious cults are the pro- duct of depravity and are moni- ments to man's rebellion against God. God has provided a plan of salvation, an effectual plan, that will generate a new nature, free -- from the taints of sin and from the -- depravity produced in the old na- ture by sin. : 'Salvation is a Simple Thing. Accept God's plan, and you will be saved, and the eternal blessings of God will distill upon you through- out eternity. "Ye must be born again.'? You cannot deny ithe necessity of a new birth and the blessings that come from the second birth. You can't change the nature of a man by the treatment of his body j you cannot correct the depravity of his soul by putting & plaster on his back. It is impossible to change the natiire of a man by telling him to deny the supernatural and to be- come a utilitarian. It is impossible for & man to work himself into heaven. The fleet-footedness of the leopard does nof change his spots. No man can reach God by works. If God comes into his heart it will now be because the man has merited salvation. Salvation is the gift of God bestowed because of the grace and love of God, not because there is any merit in the man.--Rev. Mark A. Matthews.

Those symptoms, if they do occur at all, are followed by severe abdominal pain, diarrhoea, and usually vomit- ing. Extreme muscular prostra- tion is common. Fever is usual, and generally there is severe head- | ache. In some cases there are se- vere cramps with convulsive twitch- | ing of the limbs.

The [ron and Coal Trades Review says that a spray of the mixture lays the dust permanently. In one mine it was found that the drive walls sprayed with it remained, in some parts of the mine, sticky and dust-catching for nearly.a year. The preparation, which contains a smal] quantity of some disinfectant, forms a thick coating on the underground walls and surfaces, and closely covers all dangerous sputum, microbes, or other noxious matter. The Rand mining authorities, it is said, are planning to use the new prepara- tion in the mines that they control. One-third Of.

Instead of indulging in more elaborate and highly seasoned cooking, people should, after reach- ing the age of 35 to 40, begin to eat less food and more wholesome |food. The organs of excretion, and in fact, all the organs of the body, have attained their greatest degree of efficiency, and just lke an en- gine which has seen good active service, they must récelve more careful instead of more reckless treatment. When too rich a mix- ture of gasoline and air is fed to a |gas engine carbon is deposited in the cylinders and there is a loss of When too much coal is fed yield as much heat, and there is too mueh ash and clinkers left. Use Less Coal. So it is in the human body ; over- feeding leaves a surplus of ashes and residues, which have to be re- moved and not allowed to accumu- late in the system. As we grow older we become less active, the food which we consume is not as likely_to be burned up so complete- ly, and, therefore, it is wise to cut down the diet, or, in other words, to use less coal. If not, more work will be thrown upon the liver, kid- ney and other exéretory organs whose function it is to get rid of this superfluous waste. Worse than that, the excess food consumed is apt to decompose in the intestinal canal, producing toxins or poisons, which are absorbed and have a bad effect on the heart and blood ves- sels. : .

Within the past few months such poisons have been extracted by scientific men from loops of the in- testinal canal of dogs suffering from intestinal obstruction, which are so poisonous that they have, when in- jected into other healthy dogs, quickly killed them. _ To keep well as we grow older, there fore, means greater care in ihe selection of wholesome foods, eating no more than we require, and seeing that our alimentary tract is kept in the best possible working condition.
