Greenock autumn holiday was ob- served recently. The weather was dull, with an overhanging miat, but the rain kept off. The 38th annual confemnce of the Scottish National Union of Young Men’s Christian Associations was held at Hamilton recently. Arbroath Town Council have re- solved to ask the Secretary for Scot- land to limit the speed of motor cars to 10 miles over the whole burgh. A successful demonstration was held at Kirkcaldy recently in aid of the Lifeboat Saturday Fund. The collect-ion amounted to about $375. James Matthew, a. fish vendor. noarfiherdeen, while throwing the hammer for amusement, struck his little boy, aged 7, ‘on the head, caqsing the child’s death. ' Motor mail services have been inaugurated to.take the place of the mail gigs between Aberfeldy, Kenmore, and Acham, Pitlochry and Kinloch'Rannach by Strathtum- mer, Pitlochry and Foss, and Kin- loch Rannoch and Sti‘uan. Following the custom observed by the late King Edward and Queen Alexandra, the King anti. Queen have made extensive pur- chase: of Scottish tweeds. tartan rugs, Highland ornaments and cairngorm jewellery since their ar- rival at Balmoral. The wedding has just been cele- brated at Killylea bf Thomas Mc- Murray, of Lisdown, and Susannah Scott, of Drumsollen, the bride- groom being eighty years of age, and the bride seventy. ' ‘ The annual excursion of the mem- bers of the Mining Institute} of Scotland took place to Broxburn, where they inspected the Broxburn Oil Works and the electric instal- lation in‘ D‘unnet Mine. A A good start has been made with the excavation of the ruins to the 01d kirk’ of Southdean, lying on the northern slopes of the Carter Fell, in Jedforest, the object being to preserve what remains of the walls as an historical memorial of the famous battle of Utterburn‘. 'i‘he church was the headquarters of a large Scotmsh‘ Army. encampment there in the summer of 1388. It is learned that a Dunfermline gentleman has arranged for a. lease of the minerals on the Blairingone estate, near Dollar. The field is to be bored for the purpose of prov- ing the lower coal seams, which have never been pierced in that dis- trict.

LESSON Leéson III. The Last Judgment, Malt. 2-5. 31-46. Golden Text, Matt, 25. 4o. Verse 31. The Son of manâ€"~What he did'in his humiliation was done in humanity’s stead, and what he claims in his glory he claims as humanityls Head. He is the “Race- Man.” All the .angels with himâ€"The doctrine of angels is full of comfort. Nothing is taught morexexplicitly than that there is a, “family in heaven” as on earth, who “behold the face of our Father,” who are moved to jOy by the penitence of the sinner, and are models in the performance of the Father’s will (Matt. 6. 10). In connection with lChristie coming in judgment,- they iare represented 8.28 a kind of conrt ihrbne and giving majesty to_the scene. -‘v . 717 A__“ a. judicial mt which shines with material splendor.

However-many seed may have been lost in the sowing, and however deeply entangled the roots of the} good seed may have become in their fight for their life, the good is at last regnant, and the evil is to be expelled forever. , Shall come in his gloryâ€"There‘is no doubt that Christ has come al- readyâ€"after the ,resurrection at Pentecost, in the destruction of the Holy Cityâ€"â€"a.nd that he comes still. But a moral view of the universe de- mands a. personal return of Christ in judgment, for the consummation of his kingdom, the establishment of righteousness, and the casting out of wrong. This will be his true glory. 32. All the nationsâ€"This is a disâ€" puted point, upon whose meaning depends the interpretation of what follows. It is significant that the “end” has come, and that there- fore the gospel of the kingdom has been preached in the whole world for a, testimony to all the nations (Matt. 24. 14). This does not nec- essarily mean that all have heard the name of Christ, but it does mean that all have had the oppor- tunity to know their obligations to their fellows, and in this account that is the decisive test. We have here, therefore, 'a. description of universal judgment. He shall separate . . . the sheep from the goatsâ€"The latter bear a. bad character in most legendary tales. This seems to be due to their color, they being covered with long "ctâ€"black hair, and to their habits. heir browsing upon tender twigs and shrubs works great mischief. They pasture with the sheep, but there is no intimacy, and when they are folded at night both seek their own kind. Sheep, being for the most partwhite and harmless, rep- resent people of good character, Similar separations into two classes are common in Matthew (compare wheat and chalff, wise and foolish builders, wheat and tares, wise and witless virgins, good and bad fish, etc.). ed upon his throne, in glorious ma- jesty, with all people before him, his state is kingly. “This King not only comes in his kingdom (Matt. 16. 28), but has kingdoms to bestow, which have been waiting throughout all time for their pro- per sovereigns.” Compare Dan. 7. 27. 33.

When saw we thee?â€"-Some have professed Christ and thought to be judged by that profession, whereas theirhdeeds of kindness have been taken as a test of the sinâ€" cerity of their profession. AOthers have never kJOWD Christ, but, hav-’ ing exercised themselves in Christ- like charity, have proven them- selves to be his friends. Both clasâ€" ses are surprised. But we need not be. The ultimate test is not some artificial conformity to a, creed, but- the exhibition of love which is the rarest fruitiof the Spirit of Christ. 41.

The power and opportu- nity of escape, therefore, was ever theirs. ' Eternal fire-There are here-two questions of interest: (1) What is the nature of this fire, or punish- ment (46)? That it is prepared for the devil and his angels, spiritual and not corporal beings, precludes Something like remorse, which con- the possibility of its being material. sumes the soul like a fire, must be meent, (2) What is meant by “eternal”? The authorized version gives no help here, for it translates the same word in two ways: “ever- lasting fire,” “eternal life” (46). The word in the New Testament is qualitive rather than quantitive.‘ It does not refer to an indefinite continuance of time, but to a. cer- tain kind of egperienoe‘. Endless punishment and. eternal punishment are not of necessity the same. though they maye be. However, the loss or suffering involved is ir- 1 repel-able. WOMAN’S HEALTH WHEN FORTY-FIVE Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are ab- solutely the finest medicine that ever a. woman took. .At special periods a. woman needs a medicine to regulate her blood supply or her life will be a round of pain and suf- fering. It is at such times that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are worth their weight in gold, forthey make new, rich blood, that banish’the secret symptoms of distress that only wo- men and growing girls know. They strengthen every vital organ for its special task, and bring rosy cheeks and shapely forms that tell of woâ€" ‘manly health and happiness. Mrs. ‘Richard Lohb, Red Deer, Alta., *says: “At that, critical period in my life known as the change I suf- fered so much that I hardly hoped to pull through. I doctored for months, but did not get any relief, and I grew so weak that I could hardly walk about“. and it was imâ€" possible for me to do any house- work. iny women who have suf- A critical Period When Dr. Wil- ' liams’ Pink Pills are a Realrx Blessing. and I grew so weak that I could hardly walk about, and it was imâ€" possible for me to do any house- work. Only women who have suf- fered similarly can tell how much I enduredâ€"~the constant misery, the dragged out feeling and the terrible backaches that beset me. No woman could have been in a more wretched condition than I was at this time, and it was then'that my attention was directed to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. I got a half dozen boxes and before they were all gone there was a good improve- ment in my condition. Then I got six more boxes and before I had used them all I felt like a new wo- man and was enjoying better health than I had done for years. Not only have Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills prov- ed a. blessing to me, but they also worked a great change in the case of my daughter, who was in a very miserable condition after childbirth. I know also of two young girls whom I believe would have been in their graves now but for the use 1of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Con- Isidering what they have done for lme and what I have seen them do for others, I am justified in my onâ€" thusiasm for this medicine and I never losei-a-n opportunity to recom- mend it.” Sold by all medicine. dealers or by mail at 50 cents a. box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Wil- gams‘ Medicine 00;, Brockville, nt. In 1909 Offences Were 3.8 Per Cent. Less Than in 1908. ‘Statistics relating to crime in Ire- land show that during last year the indictable offences reported to the police numbered 9,873 for the whole of Ireland, showing a decrease of 3.8 per cent, as compared with 1908, but an increase of 4.8 per cent. oom- patoed with 1907. 1 The number of persons proceeded against for non-indictable offences was 1,479 more than in 1908, and 13,553 above the average for the ten years 1898â€"08. In this connec- tion it is pointed out that _there is no doubt the remarkable increase in the number of prosecutions against owners and drivers of carts under the Highways Acts is due to the operations of the “Light on Vehicles Act (1907). The number of cases of drunkenness in 1909 was- less than in 1908 by 5,519. During 1909 there were 68.748 prosecutions for; drunkenness. The average num- ber for the previous ten years was 85,106. ’ - DECREASE IN IRISH CRIME. Upper Part of Body Restored by Remarkable Operation. Six months- ago Professor Hol- lander. M. D., of Berlin, Germany, introduced to a, circle of medical men a girl with a death-head~â€"the most awful example of that form of degeneration ever seen in this can turyp There was absolutely no flesh or fat on the bones of thefalce or the upper part ofthe body, not a half ounce, it was attested. The unhappy girl looked like a, manikin used in the medical college to tea-ch the play ofthe musclesâ€"but only down to her hips. From the hips to the toes she was normally form- ed. The death-head gid, it was shown was a chorus lady and originally she had been engaged for her beauty of face and figure. One day her father was killed in a street eccldent and the girl suffered a fear- ful shock when the bleeding body was brought to the house. From that. moment on her flesh began to wast-e until finally it was all gone abdve flhe hips. _ Of course, she lost her job. The process of wast- ing was complete in six years. Further investigation showed that the girl was not, ill during any period of that time. There was no such or similar illness in the famâ€" ily and several sisters were exceed- ingly well dgyeloped girls. .The physicians decided that in this case, the introduction of para.- phine under her skin would do no good, though such is known to pro- duce fine necks and bosoms some- times. The professor then decided to use the fat the girl still retained in her lower body to build up her upper parts. There was sufficient animal fat below the hips for the purpose.~ This was extracted, mixâ€" ed with butter and olive oil and inâ€" jected where it would do the most good. The cure lasted six Inonths. “The death-head girl,” when she was reintroduced to the medical men that had seen her before. was a. death-head girl no long-er. While not plump by any means, she is now so presentable that she was again engaged as a, chorus girl. But she wouldn't do exactly for low neck costumes. ' How Flour and Sugar. are Obtained ~Native Cookery. Housekeeping in Persia is a more difficult undertaking that; in west- ern countries. The chief reasons for this are the lack of conveni‘ ences, and fihc fact that many things which in. other countries can be bought ready for use must be prepared by the Persian house~ keeper, says a writer in the Los Angeles Times. Do you want flour! You must buy your wheat, clean and sift it and send It to the mlller, wno pves perhaps a day’s journey from you. You must send with the wheat. the most; trusty servant you have, who will watch the miller day andqnight to see that he does not, take too much toll. You ought of course to send a. second servant to watch the first, but if you began that there would be no end to the numâ€" ber you woulu have to send. ' Do you want sugar? Loaf sugar granulated sugar, powdered sugar â€"you cannot buy them. What you can buy is a. gone of sugai',_ about ten inches in diameter and eighteen inches in height, which comes from Russia. or France. If you want )umps of sugar for your coffee and tea. this cone of sugar must be placed on the solid floor and by, means of a, strong knife and a ham- mer broken into pieces. If you KEEPING HOUSE IN PERSIA. DEATH-HEAD GIRL. want fine sugar these pieces must be then ground with a- mortar and pestle. If you wish powdered su~ gar the fine sugar must; be sift-ed several times. Even in the kitchen of a. European, where a, table will‘ be fOund, the cutting and pounding of the sugar must be done on the solid earthen floor. 3 The Persian “range” ‘is merely; a row of hollow boxes made of suni dried” bricks in which is built a. charcoal fire. Over these boxes are: placed strips of iron- on which the: kettle rests. Native cookery does: not include many things that are baked, but if you, an eccentric? foreigner, demand a cake .or pie your ingenious cook wilf be aqua-1i to the occasion. He will prepare beds of glowing coals in two of the boxes. ,Over one of these he will place the articles to be baked. This he will cover with a, copper pan and .on top of the pan he will place hot coals. The object of the coals in the second box is that the cook may be able to renew the fire in the first box without putting on fresh coal, which might smoke. Most Persian implements are very heavy and awkward, to handle. For example, cooking utensils are of copper and bowls for washing: clothes are of earthenware. The bowls are small and shallow. The washerwoman has no bench on whichto place the bowl‘and no boa-rd'on which to rub the clothes. Squatted on her heels, with the bowl on the floor, she wears out her hands and the clothes too at a marvellous rate. It looks rather primitive to see a woman sitting beside a watercourse pounding clothes with a. stone, but I am not sure that this method, which is universally employed by the poor- er people, is not to be preferred to the other. DELICATE BABIES NEED BABIES’ OWN TABLETS For the baby who is delicate, who' suitors from constipation, stomach and bowel troubles, worms or difai ficult teething, nothing can equal' Baby’s Own Tablets. They are a positive cure for all the little ills of childhood and can be given to the new born baby with perfect safety. They are sold under an ab- solute guarantee of a- Government analyst to contain no harmful drug. They cannot possibly do havmâ€"-they always do good. Mrs. Geo. A: Windver, Rockcroft, Ont., writes: “I would not be without- Baby’s Own Tablets. My baby was small, and delicate and newer grew till I began giving her the Tablets.

After a. thorough investigation, the Pall Mall Gazette has owe to the conclusion that the opiixn habit is shockingly prevale among the' working classes of London. One phase of the evil is the. impregnat-j ing of cigarettes with opium, which, the Gazette assert-s, “is. rampanty especiallyvamong the mill girls of' Lancashire, who find it irresistible as a solace and means of obtaining! temporary relief from the weariness’ and pain attendant on 'a life; of foil.” Better the sure. thing of toâ€"day than the uncertainty of toâ€"morrow.
