DAB] 2. THE RECURRENCE OF ARMISTICE DAY GIVES A SPE- cial appropriateness to these words of Earl Haig, spoken when he was in South Africa on the occasion of the unveiling of a memorial tablet: Do what '-'.e .1111 .111' mghout our whole lives, we can never repay the debt we owe to all those who died for us in the Great War. This Empire owes its liber- ties. its might. its wealth, its commerce, aye. its very existence. to the sacrifices of her sons. Let us try and be worthy of them. And let us also not forget our debt to that Divine Power. the God of battle. the giver of all victories. the God of our fathers! On more than one occasion when all the bravery of the troops. the skill and devotion of their leaders. availed not to check the onrush of the enemy, when all our re- serves had been spentâ€"nothing further could be done â€"â€"we sank down on our knees and prayed to God to help us and save us in our trouble. And if one con- siders how small an amount of success is due to one’s individual self, and through what weak instruments God manifests His greatness. it is an easy matter to be modest and give all the praise and glory of vic- tory to God. This is the spirit of the true soldier. both of the British Army and also of the Army of the King of Kings. Prayer always means power. of life; For the power of Christ, whom I serve; For the final victory which I know shall be mine if my faith fail not.

A THOUGHTFUL PERSON REMARKS THAT CHRIS- tians. the salt of the earth. spend more every year for salt than for foreign missions. We spend more yearly for safes to put our money in than we take from those safes for for- eign missions. We pay twice asmuch for the trunks for our yearly travels as to send the gospel traveling; and twice as much for umbrellas to keep off the rain. as to keep the hea- then from Satan’s wiles. The gloves for our hands cost twice as much as those put into the contribution box for foreign missions; and our pocket-books cost half as much as those pocket-books give for the heathen. The new mirrors into which we smirk each year at our benevolent faces exceed in value all our gifts to foreign missions. Does anyone think a tenth too much to give the Lord’s work? Think what depends upon it. Here are some things: The church, the Sunday school, the mission churches at home and in foreign fields, the distribution of_ Bibles, the cause of “â€" --â€" â€"v- vâ€" {emperance Elia" social welfare work of various kinds; lightenment for those in darkness, and hope, happiness life for all this sinning, suffering world. _ For The Quiet Hour IN HIS CARE In dazzling day or blinding night, God ne’er forgets us in the fight; His glorious angels will abide, If we but clasp them at our side; The. hand that b9ck°n§ thsnx is Braver: And Faith the clasp that Prays Aged Sire: “We thank thee, God, for all that’s past, The joys of youth, the fruits of age, For home and children, lad and lass.

Nor would we scorn our grief and pain, For as the sunshine follows rein; So joy with sorrow ever goes, And even the most lovely rose Must have its thorn. Keep us from sin: we would not seek Sin kept from us, though we are weak, But ask Thee for the strength to rise Above, to where a nobler prize Is ours to win.

Ordin- ary soil will do. The box should be covered 'to keep the plants in darkness, unless the cellar is dark. for best results. the cellar would be warm, with a temperature of about 60 degrees. Strong, vigorous plants should be selected. Wle prefer those with deep red color. In digging the plants, leave as much clay as possible at- tached to the clump, and cut of! the coarse roots that protrude. rIlhe clump is then exposed until it freezes hard, and should then be stored in a shed until required for the cellar. If the rhubard clumps are brought in about ev two months, they should supply t 0 av- erage family with this delicious pie plant throughout the winter. Rhubarb can be successfully grown in any warm cellar during the winter. and is much more ten- der and delicious than even the earliestrhubarb grown outdoors in the spring, says J. A.
