A novelty in the vegetable kingdom has recently been reported as rgive to the United States of Colombia. In the woods adjacent to the city of Moyobamba grows a tree which the natives call "rain tree." It is about fifty feet high when it reac-ies ma turity and about three feet in diameter at its base, and has the property of absorbing an immense quantity of hu midity from the atmosphere. This Is concentrates and subsequently pours forth from its leaves and branches in a shower and in such abundance that in. many cases the ground in its neighborhood is convert ed into veritable bog. It possesses this curious property in the greatest degree in the summer, when the riv ers are at the lowest point and water is scarce. It has been suggested that this tree be planted in the more arid parts of Peru for the benefit of the farmers. Cravats of Wood Pulp. A syndicate of English capitalists.

Subject: Jesus at the Feast of Tabernacle, John vii., 37-46 Golden Text, John ii., 46 Memory Verse, 37 Cominen. tary on the Day's Lesson. I. Christ teaching in the temple (vs. 37 39) . During the closing days of the feast great opposition - was stirred up against Jesus, and the Jewish rulers sent officers to apprehend Him, but notwithstanding this He taught boldly in the temple. 37. "Last day." There is a difference of opin ion as to whether this was the seventh or eighth dav of the feast. Edersheim thinks it was the seventh day, which wa3 really the last day of the feast. The eighth day was kept as a Sabbath, when there was no ceremony of drawing water from biloam. Jesus stood. In the temple court, prob ably in Solomon's porch. "And cried." Spoke with- a voice loud enough sa all could hear. Ii any man thirst. It was burn ing autumn weather, when the sun had ior months shone in a cloudless sky, and. the earlv rains were longed for. Water at all times is a magic word in a sultry cli mate like Palestine, but at this moment it had a double power, vine ceremonies of pouring water commemorated that part of. the wilderness Wanderings when the peo ple were suffering from a . terrible thirst, and Moses at God's ' command brought water for them from the rock (Num. 20: 1-11). Now Jesus invites all who were suffering from spiritual thirst, like the burning thirst of the people in the desert. Thirst is emblematical of spiritual necessi ties; an intense need and desire for par don, for help, for righteousness, for love, for peace, for comfort, for God, for ' a worthy life, for immortal life. "Let him." Freely and without hesitancy or reserve. Come. A very precious invitation. .J. his Word ought to come with great force to every soul thirsting after spiritual life, lo come to Jesus is to believe on Him, to ac cept His teachings, to repent of our sns, to yield to His commands, to submit to Him fully. "Unto Me and drink." Here we see' the absolute sufficiency of Christ for all human need.. Jesus confronts the sin and misery and heartache of the world and deliberately declares that He is the panacea for it all. 38. -He that believeth." . To believe has the same meaning as to come, as used in the preceding verse. - "Scripture hath said." The reference is not to any one pas sage, but to many passages and promises combined. See Isa. 58:11; 44:3: Jer. 31:12; Ezek. 47:1-12, etc. "Out of his belly." The innermost part of man. the soul, the heart. ""Shall flow." This clearly implies some thing received that it may flow from the recipient unto others. "Rivers." Denot ing abundance, freeness, continued supply, in contrast with the smalk golden pitcher used in the ceremony of pouring water. "Living water." Pure, running water, ever:floAving streams; the opposite of stag nant, malarious, poisonous water; also life giving water (chap. 4:10). The saspel of Christ, which is the truth of God received into the heart by the Spirit, brings life, health and jov. 39. "This 'sr&lce He." This is John's explanation of Christ's words. "Of the Spirit," etc. The HoTy Spirit and His in- nuences were tne living waters, aoundant, free, purifying, bringing life, health, salva tion to the soul, as water to the thirsty, as rain to the parched earth, and making every Christian a source of the same influ ences which he has received from the Holy Spirit. This is a prophecy of the dispensa tion' of the Spirit which was to commence with the outpourning ot the Spirit on the day of Pentecost, and continue through the ages till all the world is brought to Christ. We need to lay more emphasis in our day upon this wonderful gift, both for our individual growth and usefulness and for the salvation of the world. "Not yet Elven." The- dispensation of the Spirit ad not been ushered in, and He had not vet been poured but upon the hearts of be lievers in all His fulness. This cannot mean that the Spirit did not exist and was in no sense present with believers in the Old Testament dispensation. II. Different .opinions concerning Christ (vs. 40-43). 40. "Many said." Those Who heard the powerful declarations ot Jesus knew that He was move than an or dinary man. "The prophet." Referring to the great prophet predicted by Moes (Deut. 18:15), "whom some identifred with tl.b Messiah, and others supposed would be the forerunner of the Messiah." From the next vevss we see that here He was distinguished ficrn the Messiah. 41. '.'Others said,"-etc. These believed Jesus to be the Messiah the Christ, the Anoint ed One whom all pious Jews were expect ing at this period, and to whom their re ligious rites all pointed: though for the most part they were expecting only a tem poral King or Redeemer. "Out of Galilee." Christ seemed to them to come from Gali lee, because His early home was there and much of His ministry had been there. 42. "The Scripture said," etc. The Jews Knew that the Messiah was to be of the iamuy oi ijavia (,rsa. 102:11; isa. y:u, ; 11:1-5: Jer. 23:5) and was to be bom in Bethlehem (Mic. 5:2; 1 Sam. 16:1. 5, IS); but tney cud not know that in Christ these fecriptures -were fulfilled. All the trouDe with this argument vras that thsy did not take care "to ascertain the facts. Their quo tations.of Scripture were an argument in favor of Jesus being the Messiah, for He fulfilled the Scriptures. Many another ar gument against religion is of this same na ture. Men set up a caricature of religion, and arguing against that really presents arguments in favor of true religion as it is in the gospel. "Where David was."' David was bora in Bethlehem and lived there until he was called into the service of Saul, Israel's king. 43. 'A division."' it means a serious and possibly violent di vision.! III. ! The Jews seek His arrest (vs. 44 48). 44. "Some of them." Some 01 the people, provoked by the controversy would on their own responsibility have carried Him before the Sanhedrin. The reference here is not to the officers. "But no man," etc. Not even those who had been com manded to do it (see vs. 32. 45). They were fettered on the one hand by fear of the adherents of Jesus and on the other by the secret power of God, impressing them with an involuntary awe, so that they dared, not proceed. 43,. "The officers." Not Roman so'.diers, hut temple police, answering to the mod ern constable. They had, been directed by the members of the Sanhedrin to arrest Jesus (v. 32). "Whv'-etc. The officers had returned without fulfilling their mis sion. and the ar.tnorities were chagrined 46. "Never man so snake' (ft. V.) Christ spake (1) with authority; (2) with direct ness to men's hearts; (3) with power; (4) clearly, and distinctly. DUCHESS POTATOES. In the beginning have just mashed potatoes, but have them very mealy and light. , If there are eight potatoes, whin into them two eggs, the whites and yolks beaten separately. When the eggs are thoroughly incorporated add some rich cream and beat with the egg beater. Season with salt and white pepper, put in a dish, round the top brush lightly with beaten egg and brown In a quick oven. Of course, the dish must be hot, and if anything has chanced to cool it before getting it ready for the oven warm it through slowly before allowing it to brown. , Longest Pastorate on Record. To the Rev; Laban Ainsworth must in all probability be given credit for holding the longest" pastorate, over one church and people that ever wa3 known seventy-six - and a half years. He was born July 15, 1757, in the little town of Woodstock, Connecticut, says a writer in Every Where. When just "of age," he was graduated at Dartmouth college then the reigning educational institutionof America. A year later he was given a license to preach. His first charge was at Spencerport, N. T., and in 1871 he went to Jaffrey, N. H., where he commenced a pastor ate, that for length and continued, steady effort, has never been-paralleled in the world. k Chance For a Reformer. feome day a great reformer, in whose aspirations sense is duly blended with enthusiasm, will make and win a great fight for pockets in women's street clothes.
