I enthusiasm and the white carnation was chosen as "Mother’s flower." In j most of the churches the morning serv ice is more an appreciation of mother than anything else, and a beautiful service it becomes. Men and women, whose lives have become so full of the world and its engrossing plans that . neither church nor home have received I the attention deserved, may go to church on that day and once more re new allegiance with the pure, true teachings that are the foundation of I our country. Letters are written home, flowers, books and candy are sent to mother instead of the girls who have joined in all the plans of fun or recre ation and have almost made them for get home.. As we all know, there are all sorts of women in the world, good, bad and indifferent, and one cannot expect the marigold to give forth the incense of the violet, nor for either of them to be a magnolia, yet every mother, be she as selfish as possible, has a certain | amount of love for her child and thinks she is doing her very best Death or misfortune frequently opens such a ’ woman's eyes to her lack of care or at ' tention. I On the other hand there are mothers who have slavtd for husband and chil dren until the t ensibilities of that fam ily are blunted and they also fail to realize their selfishness until that 'mother's hands are foldei on a pulse less breast. Many of you know the Jewish prov erb, “God could not be everywhere, so ,He made mothers." I don’t think any one 'ias written a truer summing up of the situation than Dr. T. DeWitt Talmage: •'Mother's chair has rocked the who!' family'. It made a creaking noiSe as it moved, but there was music in its sound. It wax,just high enough for us children to put our heads in her lap. That w-as the bank where we deposited all our hurts and worries. Oh, what a chair that was. It was a very wakeful chair. In the sick day of children other chairs could not keep awake—it kept easily awake. That chair knew all the old lullabies, and ail those wordless songs that mothers sing to their cMildrcn. ' Songs iA which all pity and eompas t*lon and sympathetic influences are egmbined. That old chair lias-Stopped i rocking for a good many years.' It may | set up In the loft or garret, but Jt holds . a queenly power yet." Have you ever heard cynics talk? Some of them live in every town, or , neighborhood, and it may be your mis fortune to , have to hear the hard !' things said. Did you ever mildly sug gest that his mother belonged to the i race he ko loved to sneer at, and hear j the quick reply, in indignant' tones, “My mother was quite a different worn ' an." That is the way with most peo ' pie. God pity the son or daughter who cannot look back over a childhood, I barren though it may be in every oth er respect, and not see innumerable in stances of mother-love and know that j the most appreciated monument erected to her memory will be a well t spent life. Every mother plans from [ the cradle to the early manhood of her < son most glorious things, and when her plans come to naught there are tears In her heart, whether her pride lets them come to the sight of mortals. Poets and painters have spent their best efforts in paying tribute to moth erhood. Think of the verses as old as time that have been handed down in honor of mother! Think of the old songs and fugitive verses that are floating over the world, like sunshine, purifying lives and uplifting ideals! Think of the world-weary hearts that unconsciously murmur "Backward! • turn backward, oh. Time, in your fligitt,” and believe they would barter : their all for an hour in mother's arms! And oh, the pity of it! Think of the mothers who have trudged miles and miles, entreating men and women to sign their petitions for sons in felons' cells! Listen to their pleadings, and you will see how they have forgotten all the unkindness and have magnified every act of love and consideration. “Give him just this chance, Judge.” a mother pleaded after a notorious ruf fian had been sentenced for being drunk,-and even striking her. "I loved him so much I couldn't resist him, and I let him have his own way. I am to blame. Judge. When he cried for a thing, I let him have it.” Have ycu forgotten Mothers' day this year? Have you ever celebrated it Write a letter home; if possible, go . to the old home, or wherever "m'Hher” is, ana resolve that the future shall redeem the past. Perhaps mother has gons.

Remorse may lash you, or there may be the satisfaction of knowing that every thing was done that could be done to please her. Look about the world and adopt a mother. There are white haired women whose family has been garnered by that grim reaper whose keen sickle spares not- any. Some of the loveliest women I know are moth ers whose crown of sorrqw Is remem bering the dear home, husband and children that have slipped away from them. We often hear of adopted chil dren. Look about you; perchance among those very close to you may be found a mother to adopt. Do you know the difference between knowledge and wisdom? Mr. Webster tells us that the former is “a clear and certain perception of that which lexists, or of truth and fact.” ’ This he quotesfrom Locke. Shakespeare says, "Ignorance is the curse of God, knowledge the wing wherewith we fly to heaven." We are also told that wisdom is the right use or exercise of knowledge, the choice of laud able ends and the best means to accom plish them. Hence one quickly sees that knowledge can be gleaned in every field, but wisdom comes only through years of discretion and. . experience. To whom •hould one go to discuss planp and weigh motives, if not a mother? And It is a pity when it can’t be done. Some moth ers are so prone to boast of the|r chil dren's achievements that they forget they are not to discuss affairs, at least not until they have come to pass, and that has sometimes been a cause for un pleasantness. The mother who respects her little child’s secrets will in time be the recipient of her sons’ and daughters’ affaire. Not a year ago I heard a worn say; '"Ellen is exactly like mother. I nevef dare tell either of them a oecret." Every day the young mothers are build ing the pedestals on which their children will place them. Woe be unto you if the foundation is not good. The saddest thing in life must be to see one’s confidence in one's mother fail. We are all human, and none infallible, but to have to lose confidence in the integrity Os a parent must be awful! Not to go into the world fortified by a good mother’s teachings, not to be able to remember verses of ! the Bible, favorite church songs, and t for one’s safe conduct along the path of life learned at mother’s knee is little short of a calamity. Mothers should know all about the idio syncrasies of childhood and adapt-Bible teaching so as to impress lessons that even the dust of years cannot hide nor cause to be forgotten. • "Hundreds of stars in the pretty sky; Hundreds of shells on the shore to gether; Hundreds of birds that go singing by; Hundreds of bees in the sunny weather. .“ . <»«• ■Mr' "Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn; Hundreds of lambs in the purple .clover; Hundreds of butterflies out on the lawn— But only one mother the wide world Over."

I am not n church member, but can truthfully say that I have a reason for not being one. and I know that God sees aud understands. 1 attend almost all the meetings, go to Sun day school, but I Imagine it is like being the blsck ahoep of a family, when the eervlcea are over an<l all the member* begin to shake hands. Nobody shakes bands with me and I begin to feel like I bad ratber be somewhere else. Now. why abould there be such n difference? 1 want to tell you bow a Cbirstiani(?) treated me last summer. She was u visitor In our community during a protracted meeting. Sbe didn't mind talking to anybody sbe met with I can tell you. After a week'* services a young man to whom sbe had been talking, carried me to 'the baptising. Just as soon a* arrived, sbe talked to iilru Yuly five before she ever saw me. then she bei<l out her baud and said. “You arc a ChristianJ told her I I wasn't what sbe would call one. She drew ber ' band back as if sbe had touched something poi son. and walked away. During ber talk to the young man she told him he didn't realise how eeky it would be to give the preacher bis band. . I’m afraid there are too many who think that way. Isn't everything lovely now? The dogwood trees look like patches of snow among the pines. And the snowballs and spires are indescribable. I I. too, would enjoy a Housebold reunion. Here's a cordial Invitation to ail to come again. An honest confession is good for the soul, and I'll tell ynu that reading the Household has made a better girl of me. Sincerely. CHARLEY O'MALLEY.

Throughout Palestine there had grown up during the years preceding Jesus’ birth an institution which was calculated to accomplish great good for the people, and the use of which en abled Jesus to speak His messages to the people in away that would not have been as possible otherwise This institution was the synagogue. Among other things it had a group of men who were officers, and of this group there were three Who constituted the city court, before which came all minor cases, such as theft, disorderly con duct, debt, etc. They were called the Rulers of the Synagogue. Another, known as the angel, or messenger of the church, was charged with the duty of leading the congregation in wor ship. Three more were deacons with especial care over the collection and distribution of gifts for the poor. These all were called “The Seven Good Men of the Town." Should any cases of a more serious nature arise, the offender had to be brought before the 70 at Jerusalem, the council or San hedrim, who might impose a sentence of death by stoning, but they did not deal with minor offenses. Another custom we must know to ap preciate the words qf Jesus, which we study today. Back of the city of Jeru salem was a deep and narrow valley known as Gehenna.- This word is the Graecized form or the Hebrew words Ge-hinnom, meaning the valley of Hinnom. It had once been a spot of beauty, but during the reign of Ahab it had been profaned by making it a place where sacrifices were offered in the worship of Moloch. At the refor mation under Josiah, it had been de filed to stop the sacrifices of sons and daughters there thenceforth. He made it a place where the refuse of the city was thrown. To prevent the terrible stench from arising the garbage was there burned and a continual fire was thus kept up theri The bodies of criminals were cast out there as worth less, to be eaten by the scavenger dogs or burned. From this in later days this horrid holp, where the worm dieth not and Are is not quenched, be came a symbol of the place of doom.' JESUS STRIKES DEEPLY. In setting forth -the principles which should govern the. subjects of the kingdom of God, the king made it very plain that He had riot come to ruthless ly set aside the law and the prophets. But He struck deeply into the heart of things and gave a new etnphasis to these things, such as they had not dreamed of before. Jesus, in all that He had done until now, had differed so from the religious rulers that He had been laid liable to the charge of setting aside the old law and the messages of the prophets. He was not antago nistic to them at all, but only to the interpretation which had been given to them by the ruling elemnt in religious circles. As with the Sabbath law about which we studied some weeks ago, so with other laws; they had overlaid them with silly interpretations which made them not only burdensome, but without force. They observed rigidly the letter of these laws, all the while neglecting the spirit of them. In lay ing down His principles, therefore. He assures them that the law should not only not be neglected, but that the smallest letter anfl the slightest inflec tion of a letter iin it was important and should be fulfilled. To further emphasize His belief in and obedience to< the law. He even made obedience to it and the teachings of others to obey it the supreme test of greatness in the new kingdom, and the failure to do and teach it a crite rion of leastness in that kingdom. He made the plane on which the subjects of the kingdom were to live so that they not only had to keep ’ the law as scrupulously as the scribes and Pharisees, but even to exceed this if thev were to even enter the kingdom of heaven. Tn doing this. He no doubt angered the scribes and Phrfseeas, who were self-righteoua to-a degree; but He at the same time absolutely knocked the prop from under any charge that He was antagonistic to the law and the prophets. THE HEART OF THINGS. If you will study closely the whole section from which the lesson is today (from 5:17 to 5:48), you will appreciate the force of those words, "but I say, unto you.” He gets below the surface i and down to the very heart of the mat- i ter. He took up really the second table of the law, that which deals with man’s inhumanity to man if he followed his own dictates and, desires, and which this table seeks to check and change. ' Even a superficial reading will convict | you, or any other man, of guilt in the light of Jesus’ interpretation. Take, for example, His Interpretation of the sixth commandment. Murder is not merely the act; it is the culmination of a series of thoughts. In the days of Jesus a man guilty of the act of murder was brought before the Seven Good Men of the Town. Jesus said that a man who allowed the thought of anger to enter his heart uncontrolled was Just as truly in danger of be|pg brought before the Seven as one who had actually com mitted the act, for he had but lacked opportunity. He went further, deeper into the heart of things; for He said if one allowed his anger to hold him in contempt he was not only in danger of being brought before the Seven, but the Seventy, who tried more serious of fenses. And that if he allowed his an ger to get to the point of abuse he was | on a level with those vile criminals whose bodies were cast out into the stench and filth of Gehenna for destruc tion. In this connection He thought of an other of their customs closely related to. this. If, on their way to offer sacrifices dies plod along the same old rot. uaing the old-faahloned clumsy utensils their mothers used. I confess many of them do. but I am here to tell you about my churn. My husband has a gasoline engine and has rigged it up so that it is attached to my barrel churn. 1 ! warm the milk aud he can do the churning in , five minutes. • ’ J He pumps the water, saws the wood and does a great many things with that wonderful little ; engine. I grasp at every labor saver. We have so little time in this one life tha we i should try to take as good care of ourselves | as possible. I enjoy the letters on this page and wish that we could have them twice each week, so many times 1 lay down the paper and think* over the letters and wonder how they could have written my sentiments so exactly. I have a babv and read all that is written about the care of children. Mrs. Fuller had a good let- I ter on the subject. I read it and hav etried to be careful.

X.- ' I at the Passover, they remembered that they had any leaven in their houses they were required to go back and put it away before they could acceptably offer the gift. Giving a new depth of meaning to this, He said, not if they have any ill feeling in their hearts to another, but if the other had any ill feeling to them, they must go and get it straightened 1 out before they could acceptably present a gift SUBSTANCE, NOT SHADOW. So we see how Jesus insisted on the substance instead of the shadow, on the realities instead of vanities, on the spirit rather than the letter, on inward rather than on outward worship. More church membership with Him counts for nothing. The man who observes rigorously the forms of worship, and yet is guilty of conducting his business on tricky lines and by questionable practices, is not a follower of Jesus Christ. He is a libel instead of the Bible he should be. The one thing the Men and Religion Movement stands for is reality in the religion of men; it demands of men that they be Christians in the sanest sense seven days in every week. It de mands that men make Christ the King of their lives, and tha,t every relation ship of life —business, social, family and church—be conducted by the reali ties of Jesus Christ. By that it de mands that every man and woman, boy and girl, shall be given the best oppor tunity to know Jesun as Lord and Sa viour, and that anything and everything that pulls down shall be done away with. , There is but one way to livs this real life that Jesus demands: "he that loveth his neighbor hath fulfilled the law.” Thanks be unto God, this love can be shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost, who is given unto us.

Returning from Forsyth about twilight, they saw in the southern sky, traveling west, an enormous meteor, or shooting star, mak ing an angle of about 35 degrees with the earth’s orbit. The meteor did not burn up, as is generally the case, but pursued its straight course until lost to sight behind intervening trees. It is said that the meteor resembled an arc light in color and, although it w-as yet light, the phenomenon w-as visible, beautiful and startling, to the naked eye.
