Sin is a leprosy, sin is a
i/araijnu*. siu Ls a consumption, sin is
pollution, sin is death. Give it a fair
chance and it will swamp you. body,

gives a faint intimation of it* virulence. You
see a patient in the first stages of typhoid
fever. The cheek ls somewhat flushed, the
hands somewhat hot. preceded by a slight
chill. * Why, you say, “typhoid fever doe*
* not seem to be much of a disease.” But wait
until the patient has been six weeks under it,
and all hi energies have been wrung out. an 1
he i.-> tv weak to lift his little linger,
and his int leet is gone, then you see
the full b ■'of the disease. Now
sin in tL ■ world is an ailment
which is only in its very first stages; but let
it get under mil way and it is an all consum
ing typhoid. Ob, if we could see our unpar
doned sins as God sees thi our teeth wouhl
chatter, and "ur knees would knock together,
and our re? iration would l<e choked, an l
our heart would break. If jour sins are
unforgiven, they are bearing down on you.
and you ai e sinking—sinking away from
happiness, sinking i way from God, sinking
away from everything that is good and
blessed.
Then what do we want? A swimmer! A
strong swimmer! A swift swimmer! And,
blessed be God, in my test we have him an
nounced. “i !e shall spread forth His hands in
the midst of them, as he that swimmeth
spreadeth forth his hands to swim.’’ You
iiave notic'" i that when a swimmar goes out
to rescue any one he puts off his heavy appar
el. He mi. t not have any such impediment
about him i lie is going to do this great deed.
And when Christ stepped forth to save us
He shook off the sandals of heaven,
and His fe- were free; and then He stepped
down into the wave of our transgressions,
and It cam up over His wounded foot, and it
came above the spear stab in His side—are it
'lashed to the lacerated temple, the 'high
water mar!: of His anguish. Then, rising
above the fl ad. -He stretched forth His hands
in the midst of them, as lie that swimineth
spreadeth forth his bauds to swim.”
If you have ever watched a swimmer
you notice that his whole body is brought
into play. The arms are flexed, the hands
drive the water back, the knees are
active, the head is thrown back to
escape strangulation, the whole body is in
propulsion. And when Christ sprang
into the deep to save us. He threw His
entire nature into it—all His Godhead
His omniscience, His goodness. His love
his omnipotence—head, heart, eyes, hand*
feet. W e were far out on the sea and so deep
down in the waves and so far out from the
shore that nothing short of an entire God
could save us. Christ leaped out for our
rescue saying: “Go! I come to do thy will ”
and all the surges of human and satanie hate
beat against Him,and those who watched Him
from the gates of heaven ' -ared He would
go down under the wave, and instead of sav
ing others would Himself perish; but puttin '
His breast to the foam, and shaking the surf

I want to persuade you to lay bol l of thb
strong swimmer. "N'o,” yon say, •it i al
ways disastrous for a drowning mm to lay
hold of a swimmer." Thera is not a river or
lake but has a calamity resultant from th?
fi i that when a strong swimmer went out
to save a sinking man. the drowning man
clutobwl him. threw hk arms a- un i him,
pinioned LG arms, and they ix>th went down
t gether. AVhen you are saving a man in the
vi atcr you do ii >i want to come up by
Ism face; you want to come up by his back.
You do not want him to take hold of vou
while you take hold of him. But blessed be
God, Jesus Christ is so strong a swimmer. He
comes not to our back, but to our face, and
He asks us to throw around Him tb* arms of
our love, and then promises to talc* os to the
beach, and He will do it. Do not trust that
plank of good woriu. !)•> not trust that
shtTertsl *par of your own rigateousness.
Christ only can give you transportation.
Tara your fact upon Him a' tut dying
martyr did hi olden 'lays when
he cried out: “Kone but Christ! one but
Christ T Jesus has taken millions to the
laud, and He is willing to take you there.
Oh. what hardaess to shove Him back when
He has been swimming all the way from the
throne of God to where you are now, and is
ready to swim all the wav back again, taking
your redeemed spirit. I have sometime,
thought what a spectacle the ocean bed will
present when in the last day the water
is all drawn off. It trill boa line of
wrecks from beach to beacli. There is
where the harpoons went down.
There is where the line of battle ships
went down. There is where the merchant
men went down. There is where the steam
ers went down, a long line of wrecks from
beach to . What a spectacle in the
last day when the water is drawn off! But
oil, how much more solemn if we had an eye
to sec the spiritual wrecks and the places
where they foundered. Yon would find
thousands along our roads and street*.
Christ came down in their awful catas
truplie. putting out for their souls, "spreading
foi iii His bawds as a swimmer spreadeth
forth his hands to swim;” but they thrust
Him in the sore heart, and they smote His
fair cheek, and the storm and darkness
swallowed them up. I ask you to lay hold
of this Christ aud lay hold of Him
now. You will sink without
Him. From horizon to horizon not
one sail in sight. Only one strong swimmer,
ili head flung back and arras outspread. I
era great many in the audience saving:
"Well. I would like to be a Christian. I am
going to work to become a Christian.” My
brother, you begiu wrong. When a man is
drowning, and a strong swimmer comes out
to help him, ho says to him: “Nowbequiet.
Put your arm on my arm or on my shoulder,
but don't struggle, don’t try to help your
self, and I'll take you ashore. The more you
struggle mid the more you try' to help your
self. the more you impede me. S"o\v be
quiet and I’ll take you ashore.” When
Christ, the strong swimmer, comes out to
save a ml, the sinner says: "That's right.
I am glad to see Christ, and I hui going to
help Him in tho work of my redemption.
1 am going to pray more and that will help
Him; and i am going to weep eztravagantly
over my sins and that will help Him.” Yoi
The Poorer Classes in Persia.
Touching the houses of the people oi
Persia and their household properties. 1
once spent a night in the house of a
trooper of the Shah. His pay was £SO a
year, with rations when on duty. He
gave me an excellent dinner in an upper
chamber, which was carpeted, and in the
niches of the falsp windows of which rose
leaves were piled up for fragrance. I
do not mean that the carpet was other
than the cheapest, or that the atmos
phere was alt of rose-leaves, but an Kng
lish groom gets §6O a year, more or less,
and 1 doubt if he indulges in carpets and
flowers. A few cooking utensils, a brass
tray or two, skins in which curds are
made and kept, a loom, a sheet of leath
er which serves for the floor (table) cloth
—these arc the articles that furnish the
ordinary dwelling. If the householder
be a very poor man, he will eat his meat
off big flaps of unleavened bread, and
will eat, too, that which serves him for
a table-cloth and is also the bread which
we find on our table cloths. You break
off a bit of bread and dip your hand in
the dish wherein are curds at any rate,
and possibly on feast days kid or fowl.—•

deliver the bread. Now he ha a man
ager. several bookkeeper*, 350 Men.
engineer*, driver* and men employed in
other way*. He has 105 wagon* to de
liver the bread when made, and 125
hone*. The bread is delivered in Xe* i
York, Brooklyn. Long Island, ai far out
as Jamaica, and New Jersey as far as
Bayonne. Mr. A. Burn is the manager. ;
He piloted a reporter for the Mail ami l
/.'■ through the males of the factory.
‘•We make cm an average 70,000 loaves
of bread a day. On SattmUy we make
more than this, because bread has to be
bought for Sunday. To make this bread
it takes 300 barrels of flour, besides salt,
lard, milk and yeast. This flour is
bought in New York. We keep a man
on 'Change all the time.'’
The upper floor* of the factory are
used as store houses. On the second floor
is a large room set apart for the men, in
which they each have a locker. Here
they keep their clothes. The flour is
sifted on the second floor, and different
grade* of bread are made from the various
grad** of flour. On the ground floor a
great deal of space is occupi- i hj the wag
on*. 'laare are a few repair t - i.--re
the w agons are taken when broken. The
bread U *ll made underground. Work is
commenced on the bread at 2 o'clock in
tie afternoon. This is just mixing the
dough. All the ingredients are put in a
big mixer, which is worked by the en
gine. These mixer* hold eight barrels
of flour and will mix the dough in eleven ■
minutes. The dough is then placed in
bins and left to stand four*hours. At 6
o'clock the men all go to work. They
take the=e bins of dough and cut it into i
lump* the weight of the bread. Some ,
loaves weigh 1J pound*, some 2} pounds.
These lump* of dough are then rolled
into shape and placed on a tray, where
they are left for some time to allow them 1
to rise. After that they are baked.
The ovens are al) under the street.
They are heated from the rear. *o as to 1
keep the factory as cool as poccble. They
are made of brick and wedge shaped.
The bread is placed in these ovens on a
long piece of wood the shape of a spade. ]
The ovens will hold 250 loaves, and are
heated to nearly 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
After the bread is baked it is allowed to
eel on racks. Then it is placed in boxes
of fifty and given to the carmen to de
liver. The delivery begins at 2 o’clock
in the morning and lasts until 10 o'clock.
One of the most interesting parts of
the factory is the engine room. The en
gine has to work all the mixer*, run the
elevators, work fans and do various other
work. It is of 50-horse power, and is a
very pretty working one. It has been
running now for nine year* and is as good
as new The two engineers take great
care of their engine, and never had to
shut down for repairs. The engine runs
for sixteen hour* a day, and on Friday
for twenty-foot hours. It is stopped
from noon on Saturday until noon on
Sunday.
Engineer Rowe talked to the reporter
about his work. He said: “We take a
great deal of pride in our engine. We
take great care of it, and never allow it
to get into such a condition that we have
to stop for repair*. During the nine
year* that it has been running it has not
cost as much as a wagon. I am sure 850
has not been sjient on it during that
time."
Handling Hay in th? Metropolis.
The city of New York consumes daily
about 1500 tons of hay. The handling
of hay in this city busies fully 10,000
men. The tool of the hay handler is a
hook formed like the freight handler's
hook but shorter. A bale of hay weighs
from 100 to 250 pounds. There is a
special knack in handling it, and often a
small man with skill is better for the
work than a strong man who has not
thoroughly learned the trick. Ordinarily
two men handle a bale. They thrust
their hooks into opposite ends and on the
outward side of the bale, tilt it inward,
then with the aid of their knees lift it
clear of the floor of the car and carry it
to the open doorway which looks out on
the waitng dray. Here an intelligent look
ing pair of great iron hooks is ready to
take hold. The hooks are controlled by
a single rope and an ingenious mechan
ism in the loft by which a bale may be
stopped by a single jerk of the rope, at
any point in the descent or ascent.
A single bale of damp hay in a ear
may make the whole carload musty and
almost worthless. Twenty-four hours’
exposure to sun and wind may dry out
the delightful <1 ead green of timothy and
rot it of its flavor. The owners of great
racing stables buy only the best timothy
and that known to have been carefully
cuied. Such hay easily brings 820 a ton
wholesale at ordinary times, while inferior
timothy sells as low as §l4 and clover
hay 82 or S3 lower. The retailer
expects to make about 15 cents per
hundred on hay. —Nine York Star.
Where Fish Hooks are Made.
“No, sir; very few fish-hooks are
made in this country,” said a dealer in
sporting goods to a New York World re
porter.
“The reason is that we can't make
anything to compare with the English
article, and for that reason there is no
demand for American hooks.
“Fully ninety per cent, of the hooks

A Mountain of Snakes.
“I went out to the mountains to fish
for trout last week,” said a well-known
and thoroughly reliable citizen of this
place, “and the rain drove me to an old
shanty which I found to be inhabited by
a solitary old man. After talking to him
a little about the continued wet weather,
tire conversation turned to snakes. ‘Yes,’
said the old hermit, ‘rattlesnakesis mighty
thick this year.
“ ‘I guess the rain has soaked them all
out. If you wouldn't mind walkin’ up
there on the side of the mountain where
you see that big pile of rocks, I kin show
you more snakes ’n you seen for some
time.’ The rocky promontory referred
to was perhaps half a mile distant, and I
willingly consented to accompany him.
When we got within perhaps 300 feet of
the place 1 stopped, and the old man said:
‘Do you notice that gray rock there shaped
like a haystack?' I admitted that I did.
■Well,’ he continued, ‘that is no rock—•
that is a pile o' rattlesnakes. Come along
an’l'll show you.’ We approached 200
feet nearer, aud there, sure enough, I
could see that what the old man said was
true—a pyramid-shaped pile of rocks,
fully as large as an ordinary-sized hay
stack, was so literally covered with snakes
as to appear like a seething mass of squirm
ing reptiles. It was horrible beyond ex
pression. ‘Now watch,'said the old man,
and lie picked up a large stone and hurled
it right into the midst of the pile. Im
mediately the heretofore ■ sluggish mass
became a hideous hell of activity. They
coiled, hissed and s,ruck viciously, sink
ing their poisonous fangs into each other’s
flesh, and kept up a rattling that was al
most deafening. The old man hurled
stone alter stone among them, aud they
continued to grow more furious until it
seemed that every serpent was in a death
struggle with another. The stench aris
ing from the poison which they emitted
became so sickening that I feared we
would be overcome by it, and we hastened
away. A more frightful, awful spectacle
than this battle of the rattlesnakes could
not possibly be imagined. The old man
said that this was n regular nesting
ground for rattlers, and that of the thou
sands engaged in the deadly combat
several hundred at least would die.”—

The Japanese Cooking StoTe.
The Japanese, with all their ingenuity,
have never produced anything that an
American would consider satisfactory in
the way of a cooking stove. The Jap
anese kitchen has a little range or furnace,
made of plaster, with three compartments
for fire ami a circular orifice above each,
in which to place a pot or kettle. There
is no chimney flue and no draught. The
faggots are placed in the open furnace
and lighted. The smoke issues from the
opening and fills the kitchen. The Cor
cans use a similar stove or range. For
heating the Japanese have little portable
braziers or boxes, hibaches, in which
charcoal is burned. If a man gets cold,
as he frequently does, he clasps one *f
these boxes in his arm and then wraps a
blanket around himself and the box.

THE POTATO ROT.
Every year the farmers dread the po
tato rot, which has done great damage it
seasons past. The rot first appeared it
Ireland in 1847 and was imported int
this country but recently. It is a fungu
which grows within the plant, filling th.
cells with white threads, which bear smal*
balls or capsules containing black spores.
It is these black spores which discolor th.
potatoes and from which the new plant
spring. If diseased potatoes are left in
the ground they iafeet the land and pro
pagate a pest for the next season's crop o!
potatoes. When the potatoes Jse and rot
in the ground the small spores turn into
Just and rise in the air to be carried away
to some other field. The disease spread
rapidly in this way. The best wav to
destroy the germ is to gather up all of
the potatoes, small and large, and boil
them for the fowl and swine. This wili
kill the spores and prevent the spread of
the disease. Never feed them to the ani
mals before boiling them.
The damaged potatoes should be kept
from the sound ones after they are dug.
it is well, then, to dust the sound ones
with fresh, air-slaked lime, which will
destroy any adhering spores. Keep the
potatoes dry, too, as this will tend to
keep the spores dormant. In selecting
teed potatoes never take one that shows
iny black places; then roll the cuttinsrs
in air-slaked lime. The potato rot is
strictly contagious and it should be killed
wherever it manifests itself. If every
fanner would be as careful in dealing
with his crop of potatoes the rot would
soon be exterminated and never heard
from again in this country. —WathinjUm

DIRECTIONS FOP. CHEESE MANUFACTURE.
’ The materials employed in making
cheese are milk and rennet. The milk
may be of any kind from the very poorest
to that which is rich in cream. The
rormer will make very mean cheese, the
latter will make the richest sort. Put
two-thirds of the milk into a large tub,
and raise the temperature of the last
third to that of new milk. The whole
quantity is then whisked together, the
rennet added, and the tub covered over;
in this state it is allowed to stand until it
is completely turned, when the curd is
struck down several times with the skim
ming dish, after which it is allowed
to subside. The vat covered with cheese
cloth is next placed over the tub and
filled with curd by means of a skimmer;
the curd is pressed down with the hands
and more added as it sinks, until the
curd rises above the edge of the vat to
about two inches. Now add the proper
quantity of salt, after which place a
board over it and under it and apply
pressure for two or three hours. The
cheese is next turned out and surrounded
by a fresh cheese-cloth, and pressure
again applied for eight or ten hours,when
it is commonly removed from the press,
salted over again, and pressed again
for twelve to twenty hours. The quality
of the cheese depends on this part of
the process to a great extent, as if any of
the whey is left in it, it will not keep.
Further, the cheese must be washed in
warm water, wiped dry, and placed in a
cool place to ripen. This is a bare out
line of the process of making cheese.
Experience will quickly teach more than
we could tell in a column. It is impor
tant to have a good rennet, which should
never be taken from a calf that has not
sucked, or that is not at least two days
old.— Courier-Journal.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
It is a mistake to stop feeding young
turkeys when grown.
A noted English agriculturist advises
farmers to try ensilaging instead of hay
making in securing the hay crop.
If too late to set out cabbage or celery
where the early vegetables were grown,
clear off the land and sow rye, it will be
fine to turn under this fall.
The best and strongest chicks are
hatched—some will be raised two months
hence, but they are not considered as good
as the early birds.
Ripe timothy hay is worth very little
more than straw for milk and butter,
while timothy cut when the grass is in
early blossom is much more productive.
There is no more dismal sight than a
sparsely painted farm house without the
sheltering shade of a small tree and with
bare earth where luxuriant grass should
abound.
Have the fair in mind while at work
about the garden, any fine specimens oi
vegetables, crowd—exhibit at the fail
and then save the seed for next year’s
planting.
According to Professor E. Morrow it is
better, in draining wide, nearly level
tracts, to have two. three or more lines
parallel by each other than to have on(
main drain with short ditches at right
angles.
Where animals—horses and sheep, t<
wit—have their teeth sound and com
plete, it is claimed there is no advantags
to Ire gained by crushing their grain ra
tions. It is otherwise in the case of old
horses, cattle and pigs.
If you have a few choice cut planti
that are endangered by cut worms yor
can save them by winding a strip ol
folded paper round the stem. Cabbage,
sweet potato and tomato plants o*n bi
fully protected in like manner.

The .Ige of Insects.
It is well known that Sir Johu Lub
bock has shown how long insects may
live when kept out of harm’s way. Tt.e
greatest age yet attained by any insect.
So far as is known, is that reached by a
queen of an ant (Formosa fused), which
lived in his care until August 8, 1868,
when she must have been nearly fifteen
years old. Another queen of the same
species died at the advanced age of over
thirteen years. He has now a queen of
another kind of ant (Latins niger), which
is more than nine years old, “and still
lays fertile eggs, which produce female
ants.”
The ‘’Hobby” Rider.
Those who know how much satisfac
tion they get from riling hobbies, have
said that "no man can he happy without
a hobby,” that “the person who passes
through life without being ail enthusias
tic student of something loses more than
he can appreciate.” Many find enjoy
ment in riding two, four or more hob
bies, but some stick to one, and are too
prone to think it is the only or e in the
world worthy of attraction.

: last May he fell in love with the daugh

Substitute for Glass.
It is impossible to conceive of anything
that could supersede glass in the matter
of transparency, but in respect of brit
tleness aod rigidity, it is very far fr ru
being a perfect materi and. V substitute is
now proposed, which, if it lacks in
transparency, is fr. e from the defects
mentioned. It is fine wire netting cov
ered with a prepared varnish which p- r
mits the light to pass th rough as freely
as glass of ihe variety known as cathe
dral. It is almost as flexible as a sheet
of canvas, an i is absolutely air tight and
water tight. The inventor has been
working at the problem for years, and
after experimenting with many products,
he found that he could, by p .ssing the
wire netting through a series of ba.h- of
linseed oil chemically prepared, produce
a material with the properiies of amber.
It is at once tough and elastic, and can
not le broken even by a veiy considera
te weigh: filling upon it.
The House Fly.
Put a fly on the window and up he
goes toward the top; he can't be made
to walk downward. A gentleman hit
upon an idea. Why not use that hah t
against then-.? Forthwith he made a
window screen divided in half. The
upper half lapped over the lower, w i'h
an inch of sp ice between. As soon a- a
fly would light on the screen he would
proceed to travel upward, ana would
thus walk straight out of doors. Oil
reaching the top of the lower half lie
would be outside. Not being able to
walk down, he had to was to return to
the room. By tnis means a room can be
quickly cleared of flies, which always
seek the light.
