Tsaluas, xvlil., 35, There is little In the popular Idea ot gen- wtuiess 10 mate it desirable torttodor man v e think of it as lacking in vigor anl a ioug way removed irom greatness. o sug gestive is it of weakness and softness that we want very little to do with it. Our ideas ot gentleness need rectifying. W e speak often of & gentle horse. What do we mean by it? That horse is gentle that is nervy ani full of mettle, able to pass anything oa the road, and yet so easily subdued that the voice of a little child would bring him to a standstill at once. That man is geutle who has the strength of a'Hercules and the tenderness of a woman. Gentleness is power withholding itself and Bpendmar itself in goodness. A good illustration of gentleness was that on a Spanish battle field. A gallant French soldier's sword was uplifted to strike his foe to the earth, but he sawasthe sword was about to descend that his an tagonist had but one farm. Instantly he stayed his sword, brought it to a salute and rode on. Gentleness in a woman is love's mighty magnet, and will attract its own from the ends of the earth. A woman without it is a monstrosity, a warrior with it is greater far than he who shows his power by burn ing villages, destroying crops, executing prisoners. The great general at Appomat tox, considering the interests of the men in gray, treating them as his countrymen, silencing the salute already under way to celebrate victory lest they should be fur ther humiliated, and sending the defeated ones home well fed and equipped for labor on the farms, declaring himself a gentle man as well as a great soldier, and did more in that hour to make his country great than other great men have done in a lifetime. Grant could have crushed the South in that hour; instead, he caressed it as a mother her weak and wayward child, and melted it to tears. We Speak often of the power of God, but it is the gentleness of God that works the greatest wonders. It is this that makes men great. See the gentleness of God at the beginning. It is not the strong arm, but the tender heart, that concerns itself with fallen man. It is not a king's voice that we hear in Eden, but a father's. Pathetic cry that, "Adam, Adam, where art thou?" When God came down in human flesh to save a lost world He came in the same spirit. A still and quiet night it was when the Saviour was born. The stars looked down peacefully upon the shepherds as they watched their sheep. The world was wrapt in slumber. It was into this stillness and quiet that God's angels came and God's glory shone around. Gentle words those were the angel spoke "Be not afraid." So sweet and gentle was the musio of the angelio host that no one save the shepherds heard it. The spirit of the Gospel is the same. It is summed up in the words: "A bruised reed will He not break; the smoking flax He , will not quench." It is by gentleness that God seeks to win the world to righteous ness and truth. "The Lord God is a sun." Sooner or later cold and icy hearts must give way before Him. We need more gen tleness before the earth can become like heaven gentleness on the part of parents. You can shout at your children and bring them into trembling submission; you can thrash them into obedience; you can starve them into submission. The strong can bring the weak to terms for a while by any of the methods. But if you waut to show your child the sweet reasonableness of your position and to make him docile, obe dient, trustful, sit down and talk gently with him and seek to make his heart your own. We need more gentleness on the part of preachers. ''The servant of the Lord must not strive, but be gentle toward all men." The Great Preacher was so gentle that Si mon the Pharisee asked him to dine with him; the poor harlot lingered near His feet caressingly; Zaccheus and Matthew, the publicans, became His loyal disciples, and even a thief, in the agony of crucifixion, cried, "Lord, remember me." The world needs nothing more than it needs gentle ness and love. Human hearts are hungry for the music of gentle voices and the touch of tenderness. Why should we not all try to show that we are the sons and daughters of the gentle God? Bough, rude boys have been made great fot iime and eternity by the sweetness and gentleness of mothers and sisters. Dull, wilful, petulent scholars have been made thoughtful and earnest by the tender pa tient love of self-rtenying teachers. Souls small, mean, selfish, sinful, nave been made great by the gentle, faithful labors of those not willing that any should perish, The night of life is coming on apace. It will oe sweet to have the gates swing In ward at our approach to the city eternal, and to be welcomed by some watching for our home coming, and to hear from joyful lips such words as these: "Thy gentleness hath made me great." ItlCHAKD G. WOODBBIDOE, Pastor Central Congregational Church, Middleboro, Mass. CHRIST AS A VILLACE LAD. Br. Talmage Discourse on the Boyhood of Jesus. Text: "And the child grew and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom, and the face of God Was upon Him." Luke xi 40. Concerning what bounded the boyhood of Christ, the preacher said, we have whole libraries of books and whole galleries of canvas and sculpture, but pen and pencil and chisel have, with few exceptions, passed by Christ, the village lad. "Yet, by three conjointed evidences," he said, "I think we can come to as accurate an idea of what Christ was as a boy as of what Christ was as a man. "first, we have the Bible account of His bovhood. Then we have th3 prolonged ac count of what Christ was at thirty years of ege. We have besides an uninspired book that was for the first three or four centuries al ter Christ's appearance received by many as inspired, and which gives a prolonged account of Christ's boyhood. "The . so-called apocryphal Gospel, in which the boyhood of Christ is dwelt upon, I do not believe to be divinely inspired, and yet it may present facts worthy of consid eration. Because it represents the boy Christ as performing miracles, some have ovnrtbrown that whole apocryphal book. But what right have you to say that Christ did not perform miracles at ten years of age, as well as at thirty? He was in boy hood as certainly as divine as in manhood. Then while a lad He must have had the power to work miracles, whether He did or not work thera. When, having reached manhood, Christ turned water into wine, that was said to be the beginning of mir acles. But that may mean that it was the beginning of that series of manhood mir acles. "In a word, I think that the New Testa ment is only a small transcript of what Jesus said and did. Ho we are at liberty to believe or reject those parts of th apocry phal Gospel which say that when the boy Christ with His mother passed a band of thieves. He told His mother that two of them, Dumachus and Titus by name, would be the two thieves who afterward would pxpirt! on crosses besides Him. Was that more wonderful than some of Christ's man hood prophecies? Or the inspired storv tliuft the bov Christ made a fountain siting front the roots of a sycamore tree so that His ii.etLi-r washed Ilia coat in the stream was that more unbelievable than the man-, hood miracle that 'changed common water into a-marriage beverage? Or the unin spired story that two sick ohildren were re covered by bathing in the water whe,rt Christ had washed. Was that more-wonderful than the manhood miracle Xy which the woman, twelve years a complete in valid, should have been made straight by touching the fringe or Xlxrist's coat? Is that more wonderfuVf hau the manhood miracles by whicht!hrist reanimated the dead again and -Again without going where they were ryrieven seeing them? "Fronhe naturalness, the simplicity, the freshness of Ills parables and similes and metaphors in manhood discourse I know that He had been a boy of the fields and had bathed in the streams and heard the nightingale's call, and brokon through the fldwery hedge and looked out of the embrasures ot the fortress, and drank from the wells and chased the butterflies." Dr. Talmage referred to Christ In the mechanic's shop, having been taught the carpenter's trade by His father, Joseph. "His hammer pounding. His saw vacil lating, His axe descending and the per spiration from His work standing on His brow." Then said the preacher: "I show you a more marvelous sene Christ, the smooth browed lad, among the long-bearded, white-haired, htgh-foreheaded ecclesias tics of the Temple." Following other events recorded in the apoorypha, the preacher asked if they were more wonderful than events recorded in the New Testament. "If Cnrist were divine was Ha not able at ten or twelve years to describe the human system as well as though He had been fifty years standing at an operating table or in a dissecting room? In othei words, while I do not believe that any par) ofithe so-called apocryphal New Testament is inspired, I believe much of it is true, just as I believe a thousand books, none of which is divinely inspired." "A child twelve years old, surrounded by septuagenarians, He asking His own ques tions and answering theirs. Let me intro duce you to some ol these ecclesiastic!. This is the great Babbin Simeon! Tola Is the venerable Hillel! This is the famous Shammall These are the sons of the dis tinguished Betirah. The first time in all their lives these religionists have found their match, and more than their match. Though so young, He knew all about that Temple under whose roof they held that most wonderful discussion of all history. He knew the meaning of every altar, of every saoriflce, of every golden candle stick, of every embroidered curtain, of every crumb of shrew bread, of every drop of oil In that sacred epiflce. He knew all about God. He knew all about man. He knew all about heaven, for He came from it. He knew all about this world, for He made it. He knew all worlds, for they were only the sparkling morning dewdrops on the lawn in front of His heavenly palace. "Put these seven Bible words in a wreath of emphasis: 'Both hearing them and ask ing them questions.' I am not so much interested in the questions they asked Him as in the questions He asked them. He asked the question not to get information from the doctors, for He knew it already, but to humble them by showing them the height and depth and length and breadth of their own Ignorance. ' The radiant boy with any one of a hundred questions about theology, about philosophy, about astrono my, about time, about eternity, may have balked them, disconcerted them. Behold the boy Christ asking questions, and listen when your child asks questions. He has the right to ask them. The more he asks, the better. . Alas for the stupidity of the child without inquisitivenessl It is Christ like to ask questions. Answer them if you can. Do not say: 'I can't be bothered now.' It is your place to be bothered with questions. If you are not able to answer, surrender and confess your incapacity, as I have no doubt did Kabbis Simeon, and Hillel, and Shammai, and the sons of Be tirah when that splendid boy, sitting or standing there, with a garment reaching from neek to ankle, and girdled at the waist, put them to their very wits' end. It is no disgrace to say 'I don't know.' The only being in the universe who never needs to say 'I don't know' is the Lord Almighty. "But while I see the old theologians standing around the boy Christ, I am im pressed as never before with the fact that what theology most wants is more of childish simplicity. Why should you and I perplex ourselves about the decrees of God? Mind your own business and God will take, care of His. In the conduct of the universe I think He will somehow man age to get along without us. If you want to love and serve God, and be good and useful and get to heaven, I warrant that nothing which occurred eight hundred quintillion of years ago will hinder you a minute. It is not the decrees of God that do us any harm; it is our own decrees of sin and folly. "ou need not go any further back in history than about one thousand eight hundred and sixty-four years. Something occurred on that clay under an eclipsed sun that sets us all forever free, If with our whole heart and life we accept the tre mendous proffer. Do not let the Presby terian Church, or the Methodist Church, or the Lutheran Church, or the Baptist Church, or any of the other evangelical churches spend any time in trying to fix up old creeds, all of them imperfect, as everything man does is imperfect. Our own denomination made Itself absurd by trying to revise its creed made hundreds of years ago. You might as well try tore vise your grandmother's love letters. I move a new creed for all the evangelical churches of Christendom, only three arti cles in the creed, and no need of any more. "If I had all the consecrated people of all denominations of the earth on one great plain, and I had voice loud enough to put it to a vote, that creed of three articles would be adopted with a unanimous vote. This is the creed I propose for all Christen dom: "Article first 'God so loved the world that lie gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believetli in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.' "Article second 'This is a faithful say ing, and worthy of all acceptation, that Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners, even the chief.' "Article third 'Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive blessings and riches and honor and glory and power, world without end.' "But you go to tinkering up your old creeds, and patching and splicing and interlining and annexing and subtracting aud adding and explaining, and you will lose time and make yourself a target for earth and hell to shoot at. Let us have creeds not fashioned oat of human in genuities, but out of scriptural phrase ology, aud all the guns of bombardment blazing from all the port holes of infi delity and perdition will not in a thou sand years knock off the church of God a splinter as big as a cambric needle. What is most needed now is that we gather all our theologies around the boy in the temple, the elaborations around the sim plicities, and the profundities around the clarities, the octogenarian of scholastic re search around the unwrlnkled cheek of twelve-year juvenescenee. 'Except you become as a little child you can in no wise enter the kingdom;' and except you become as a little child you cannot understand the Christian religion. The best thing that Rabbis Simeon and Hillel and Shammai and the sons of Betirah ever did was, la the temple, to bend over the lad who, first made ruddy of cheek Dy the breath of the Judean hills, and on his way to the me chanic's shop, where he was soon to be the support of his bereaved mother, stopped long enough to grapple with the venerable dialecticians of the Orient, 'both hearing them ami asking them questions.' Some, referring to Christ, have exclaimed: Ecce deus! Behold the God. Others have exclaimed: Ecce Homo, Behold the man. But to-day, In conclusion of my subject, I cry: tcce adolescence!

To remove spots from furniture rub well with sweet oil and turpentine, then wash with warm soapsuds and polish with crude oil. For a good polish for old furniture, try the follow ing: Put equal parts of kerosene and sweet oil iu a large bottle and shake well; then apply with a flannel cloth, rubbing the oil in well. It can be used on either oiled or varnished sur faces. Preserving Delicate Color. The following simple formula, given by the Society of Arts, is for cleaning fabrics without changing their color: Grate raw potatoes over clear water, in the proportion of two fair-sized potatoes to a pint. When the last bit of fine pulp has dropped into the wa ter, strain the mixture through a coarse sieve into another vessel hold ing the same amount of clear water, nd let the second liquid stand till ihoroughly settled. Pour off the jlearer part to be kept for use. Rub or sponge the soiled fabrics with the potato water, wash in clean water, dry md iron. The thick sediment can be kept and used for cleaning thick ma terial like carpets and heavy cloth. Lemoii and OrangM. It is not generally known that the uice of lemons or orauges treated like any other fruit juices will make a clear jelly without gelatine if a pound and a quarter of granulated sugar is al lowed for each pint. Eipe, juicy fruit should be chosen, and the sugar and juice boiled together for fifteen min utes; at the end of this time take out a little on a saucer, put in a cool place, and if it shows signs of setting it is done. Some of the most perfect orauges or lemons should be picked out, and, after cutting off the blossom end carefully, the contents scooped out (of course saving the juice), the shell may be preserved whole and filled with the jelly made as directed above. As the sheila are emptied they must be thrown into cold water, then simmered until transparent in alum and water, in the proportion of two teaspoons of alum to a quart of water; they are then to be put in a pan of cold water once more; this changed every three hours for three times; then lo taiiil over night in cold waer. In the morning they are to be covered with boiiing water, boiled gently for an hour, then drained ' and weighe 1. To every pound of theae shells allow a pound of sugar and one-half pint of water; boil aud skim; add to this the juice saved when scooping out; then put the shells in and simmer until ten der and clear, when they are to be spread separately ou flat dishes and they and the syrup allowed to stand, carefully covered for two days. After these shells are filled with the jelly they are to be put, the open end down ward, into glass jars, the syrup poured over and the tops screwed on. The sugar will insure the keeping. The jelly should not be made until the shells are ready, as it must be poured while liquid.
