HOUSEHOLD CONVENIENCES. The skillful worker in any business always keeps up-to-date tools, for he knows he will thus In crease his efficiency. Th efficient housewife alsa " knows that time, strengt and temper are lost by using old, worn-out and cumbersome utensils. Why use dull paring and carving knives when .a i ' small sharpener can bt bought which . will keep all cutting tools in good order? If there is any one thing which will cause one to iise strong language It is a dull carving knife. 4 A tray to remove food and dishes from the dining table or to carry it to the table Is a great saving of steps. If one' cannot afford to buy a wheeled tray or tea wagon get the handy man to make you one, using the small wheels from an old gocart. .' A wire dish drainer is light and can be used as a tray if no other Is at hand, for It Is easy, to carry. , Paper or wooden trays or platet make fine' dishes to use In the ice box. for tliey do not break and" may be re newed often at little expense. Paper, of all kinds saves dish wash ing. Wipe out the greasy dishes with a piece of soft paper before-putting them Into the dish water. Keep the table wiped up with paper, saving the dishcloth for stains and grease. A kitchen table covered with zinc oi some hard surface that does not need scouring to keep clean Is a most neces sary kitchen convenience. Some, good scales, a good clock, n kitchen cabinet with everything at hand to . use in cookery, are all necessary equipment' Keep a bottle of kerosene near, the sink, and when it Is dry wipe out with a cloth dampened with kerosene; it will keep clean without scouring. Re peated, scourings with various cleanh? ; powders will ruin the surface, so thai It becomes, rougn and stains easily. Have a stool that will '' si ip undet the table when, notneeded and.use II to st on while preparing vegetable or doing many kinds of work. It will be found . a great saving on tired feet One can learn to wash and wipe dishei and Iron sitting on a stool. Have ; a. rune on which to rest . the - feet to change one's position. A small, simple' old ' rocking chair In the kitchen will save many a break down. Drop into It while doing, . ya rlous things, and relax when .possible.

At the command of God Abraham went out not : knowlne whither he went (Heb. 11:8): His was not. the obedience of convenience or prudence. To separate from home and kindred and take up the life of a pilgrim was not easy. .Abraham did not stop 'to ask why, or ; what he would get out of It The obedience that asks why , Is not obedience at all. -, v II. The" Motive of .Obedience (John " 14:21-24). . r ;. The grand incentive of obedience : Is love to od. The obedience that is the result of fear or thc hope of re ward is not true obedience, therefore has not the approval of , God. , Only the child who reverejices his . father : and affectionately strives to obey him , enjoys his loving favor.

The enemies of Christ posing as his min isters are most destructive. : .; .' (3) The unfailing test (f v. .16-18). ' Their fruits. If one gives sufficient , time for' development the fruit; can be " discerned. Every ' tree bears Its - own kind of fruit Nature Is inexorable In her law as to this. You may search the universe in vain for' an excep'tion. It is equally true In the spiritual , world. There Is a vital connection ' between the faith of a heart and i the . fruit of a life.
