SLAVES SET FREE RETURN TO BONDS

Still Greater Freedom With Kingly Honors Thereby Secured. ' ' _______ Pastor Russell’s Discourse the Third and Last of a Series Upon the Texts Which Embellish the Famous Union Station of Washington City.

tor. All enslavers oppose the Truth, knowing its power on the minds of their victims. The taskmasters of today would fain hide the truth from wage-slaves, but find it impossible—so great is the power of the press—and there are publishers who have not sold their moral sense for sordid gain. When chattel slavery prevailed, the master found It advantageous to educate bls slaves and thus Increase their value, but disadvantageous to Instruct them along the lines of human rights. The feudatory lords were very willing that the common people consider them demigods, not subject to law as others. The same principle apparently prompted the emperors to proclaim themselves, “pontifex maximus" and to encourage their people to worship them. The natural selfishness of man ever prompts him to take advantage of others; and ignorance has been the chain which has bound the masses.

The Bible has been the great Emancipator of slaves—mental, moral and physical. It is the Torch of Liberty, lighted by Divine Providence. The Bible alone tells us that all humanity are of one blood, creatures of the same God, amenable to Him. While the Bible instructs that kings and all in authority should be recognized. It also tells that the king Is amenable to ex-, actlythe same laws as his most menial slave, and that if he violates these laws he is as sure to be punished. Moreover, the Bible points out that the present is related to the future life as cause to effect. It shows that every act, word and thought bears upon character-development, and prepares us for higher things in the life to come or gives us more difficulty in reaching perfection and everlasting life. "Hope Thou In God.” Looking into the past, we see Israel, sodden with fear of their Egyptian taskmasters, not daring to take steps for liberty. But after the Exodus, after God’s Covenant with them at Sinai, they were a changed people. The hopes inspired by the Scriptures preserved them as a nation when contemporaneous civilization perished. _ The Jews undoubtedly destroyed their own nationality. The Romans merely performed the funeral rites in destroying Jerusalem, A. D. 70. The Emperor evidently claimed that the Jewish religion must necessarily be at the foundation of their ungovernable character. Their liberty, used contrary to Divine instruction, led to discontent and anarchy. Christ’s Followers Set Free. The Message of Jesus and the Apostles attracted some “Israelites indeed,’’ anxious to serve God. The early Christians courageously suffered perse* cution and carried the Gospel everywhere. The Roman emperors, Nero and Diocletian, perceived that Christians had a courage which they feared would be Infectious, and persecuted them horribly. But the Master had freed them from fear of death. Then came a long period of darkness, when the Scriptures were forgotten, and only the words of bishops were heard—words misunderstood to be of Divine authority through Apostolic Succession. Next came centuries under control of creeds and church councils. Darkness, Ignorance and superstition prevailed, although God had His wlt> nesses throughout that long period. Finally the Bible again emerged, when printing came into use. God’s time had come for the Bible again to be the Torch of Liberty, and independence proportionately came forward. Today Britain, Germany, Scandinavia and America lead the world, because of the light from the Word of God. Danger Now, as to the Jews. The danger that the Jews encountered in the end of their Age confronts us. Not all receive the Truth in the love of it Not all, therefore, are sanctified by it Few have turned to the Lord, to become followers of Jesus. Hence we are on the threshold of a great disintegration. Liberty is about tn turn to license—anarchy; our civilisation is about to be ruined, as was the Jewish polity, by liberty unrestrained by the Spirit of the Lord. * St. Paul declared that the Gospel had set him free from all other bondages; but that he surrendered his liberty to Christ, to do, not his own will, but the will of his Redeemer.' Forcefully he states that in si>-dofng he became a bond-slave to Christ Blessed is the condition of those who gladly surrender all to become followers of the Lord! Such can rejoice, because they know that aH things work together for their good, to prepare them for the Heavenly glories.

Washington, D. C., January 19. Pastor Russell preached at Washington Temple today his third sermon on our UnDepot texts. Today's text was: •‘The Truth shall make you free.” (John 8:32.) He said; Truth is the great Emanclpa-

MEDICINE 1,600 YEARS AGO.

Ancient Tibetan Book Which Com tains Many ModerhTruths. A Tibetan "Hand? Book of' Medfc cine," published 1,000 years agb, has been recently examined by the Russian Academy of Medicine, and It is found to contain many valuable truths that have been discovered and rediscovered by modern physicians. A few extracts from the ancient volume are given:—“Number of bones in the human body, 360; number of nerves, 99; number of pores, 11,000,000.” “The heart Is the king of the organs and the staff of Ufa The lungs embrace it not unlike a mother would a child.” “Illnesses are due to man’s malice, ignorance and Inability to curb the’ passions, for these things interere with the proper nourishment of the human organa” * All unkind thoughts react upon the heart and liver.” Methods for ascertaining the condition of a' person’s health were much like those that are used to-day—feel-ing of the pulse and looking at the tongue, taking the temperature, etc. In those days the law Imposed fines upon surgeons and physicians who did not keep their instruments clean. Vegetable medicines were advocated; also the bath, compresses, massage, etc.

Early Telescopes.

It appears, according to facts collected by Mr. Arthur Mee, that Thomas Harriot, the English astronomer. born in 1560, made telescopes perhaps contemporaneous with the the first instruments of Galileo. The very first telescope seems to have been made In Holland in 1608. The next year Galileo heard of the discovery, and after writing for Information, began his own experiments. In the same year Harriot had one or two of the Dutch telescopes sent to him, and immediately began improvements on his own account It appears that he made a considerable number, and Mr. Mee suggests that some may yet be found In some of the older colleges, or mansions, In England. It Is said that Harriot's last and best telescope was nearly twice as powerful as the best made by Galileo. Long before, Harriot had been In Virginia, and there employed, In surveying, a “perspective glass.” It would be very interesting to know just what his perspectlve glass was.

Who Columbus Was.

In the afternoon in all the schools a part of the time was devoted to the study of the life and deeds of Columbus. An amusing reply was given by one of the pupils. A teacher had told the class of the wonderful voyage of Columbus and how he insisted on continuing the voyage after the other men were clamoring to return. Then she asked: “Who was Columbus?” with the view of hearing how weM they had followed her talk. One little hand went up. “Well, Johnny, who was he?” asked the teacher. “Columbus was the gem of the ocean.”

Cause for Reflection.

"The editor of my paper," declared the newspaper business manager to a little coterie of friends, “is a peculiar genius. Why, would you believe it, when he draws his weekly salary ho keeps out only one dollar for spending money and sends the rest to his wife in Indianapolis!" His listeners —with one, exception, who sat silent and reflective —gave vent to loud murmurs of wonder and admiration. “Now, it may sound thin,” added the speaker, "but it is true, nevertheless.” "Oh, I don’t doubt it at all!” quickly rejoined the quiet one. "I was only wondering what he does with the ASF lari” —Ladies* Home Journal.

The Craze for Speed.

Those mighty ocean steamers, like the Lusitania, the Mauretania, and the Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, which rush across the sea at the rate of thirty miles an hour, burn up a thousand tons of coal apiece every day. It requires five thousand tons to drive one of them across the Atlantic at that high speed. At a moderate speed, less than half that amount would do, but our century is gone speed crasy. On steamships, on railroads, on autobiles, we must have speed, and sacrifice everything to it, even human lives. Everybody is mad to “get there," whether he has any business "there" or not —Boy Life.

Enemies of the Rubber-Tree.

A great deal of attention has recently been given to the cultivation of rubber, on account of the continual ly increasing demand for it Prof. Francis E. Lloyd points out that “the inevitable straggle of man with nature" has already manifested Itself in this new field. Already a considerable number of parasitic enemies have been discovered, “whose energies appear to be largely concentrated upon cultivated rubber-trees.” It is another problem for science to deal with.

Electricity as a Carrier.

Does an electric current, when passing through a metal conductor, cause any transportation of particles? It is well known that it does so In the liquid conductors known as electrodes; in fact, such a common operation as electroplating depends entire ly upon this action. To test the matter a recent experimenter passed an electric current continously for a whole year through a conductor composed partly of copper and partly of aluminum, the sectlone being pressed firmly together. At the end of the year they were taken apart and examined, but not the slightest trace ot either metal was found ta Uwotkea

Notes and Comment

Of Interest to Women Readers

. BOSTON WOMEN WELL FED. Variety In Little Restaurants at the Hub not Matched In Gotham. .Bpstoiu seems to appreciate the needs of a woman’s stomach better than other cities. There a woman may eat better for less money, than In any other big city in the country, and she doesn’t have to go to a foreign restaurant to do it. While the same woman may sustain life decently in New York or Chicago if she doesn’t require continued variety, Boston gives more,. than that It Is a mistaken idea to assume that Boston breakfasts, lunches and dines on the bean. There are several dozen interesting places in the business district especially intended to attract a woman, and she may have a wide choice, although the dishes each day are not numerous. Seldom are two days duplicated in a month’s menus. The monotony of New York’s inexpensive restaurants is avoided, and as each of these little Boston restaurants seems to strive continually to make an Individuality of its own in the list of dishes, unless a woman really pines for sameness in her diet she isn’t compelled to submit to it So thoroughly is the attractiveness of some of these places understood that in a number of them are displayed signs, “These tables especially reserved for men,” and this too not in the shopping or stenographer district, but unclassified all day patronage. So many women decline to eat meat in these days or cut their allowance down that these places pay attention to the preparation of vegetables and made dishes, especially those including fish. While such women have to eat health food compositions in’New York or rarely get anything but white bread, wheat or a corn muffin more than half wheat flour, the Boston places pay special attention to variety in breads, and rye, whole wheat, graham, oatmeal and Indian corn muffins, gems, Sally Lunn and such things are npt only ordinary orders but are made so attractive one really wants to repeat them. Most of these lunch and tea rooms are inspired by American women who have had some scientific training and are blessed with enough business sense to make money out of it The places are necessarily tucked away up one or two flights, but the Boston patron of such a place seems to be assured that the more one labors in reaching it the more desirable it is likely to be. The Boston woman who doesn’t propose to spend much money on her food has become «o well trained that she can’t be fooled very long. When she goes to New York she is soon disenchanted, for even if dishes called by the same names are to be found in New York they are 5 or 10 cents higher a portion. Boston is developing in such eating an inexpensive, nutritious and attractive crulsine that is really American and not quite like anything else in the land.

Renovating Old Rugs.

A dingy, frayed-out rug certainly is not a thing of beauty, however handsome it may once have been. Fortunately it is often possible to brighten up and repair such a rug and make It once more a respectable piece of furnishing. For brightening up the colors, get ordinary package dyes in such colors as may be needed, and two or three small round camel’s hair brushes. Dissolve a portion of each dye in a little boiling water, to which a pinch of salt and a spoonful of vinegar have been added. Clean the rug and lay it on a table, or if large on a smooth floor. When all is ready touch up the colors in the design with the hot strong dyes, using them freely enough to permit them to penetrate well into the fabric. When this is done, lay over the dampened portions a dry cloth and iron until thoroughly dry. This takes the place of boiling and helps to set the dyes. If the rug Is frayed and ragged at the ends, trim and apply a new binding or fringe. It is wonderful what a few cents' worth of a few hours’ work and a new blndffre will do for a shabby rug. Sometimes it is better to give a small, light-colored rug an entire dyebath than to try to restore the original colors. A plain dark-red or brown rug will look well in almost any sitting or dining-room—far better surely than a faded-out, dirty-looklng light one. Flimsy rugs may be given body by pasting to the back a lining of firm cotton-cloth. Lay the rug wrong-side up on the floor, cover well with thick, raw flour paste, lay the lining carefully in place and iron until the paste is thoroughly cooked and dry. Patches if any are needed, should be pasted on rather than sewed.

Drying Woolen Underwear. .

In our family are several men who wear heavy woolen underwear in cold weather. In winter, when woolen Should always be dried indoors and Glled as it dries to keep It from shrinks. It has been found that it dries much more evenly and In better shape if ordinary coat-hangers are used to hang the shirts and drawers on. In our low studded basement kitchen we have several hooks in the colling near the range where the hangers are hung when needed, and In this manner the garments may bo uniformly dried.

A NAUTICAL YARN.

Providential Sources of Provisions After the Great Storm. Some men in a public house were inventing stories to pass the time away. They had all had a turn at it except an old sailor, who had remained silent all the time until pressed by the others to spin them a yarn. He began: “I was once in a dreadful storm. All the provisions were washed overboard. I was very ill and ate nothing for four days. At the end of that time I began to feel hungry and the steward gave me beef, chicken, port wine and eggs.” “But you said all the provisions were washed overboard. Where did the beef come from?” “From the bullocks,” said the old sailor. . “Where did you get the chicken?” “From the hatch.” “And the port wine?” “From the port hole.” “And the eggs?” “Eggs?” said the sailor. "I didn’t &ay eggs, did I?” “Oh, yes you did,” said the men. “We’ve caught you now.” The old sailor thought he was caught and had to consider. At last he said: “Oh, yes. I did have eggs. The captain ordereed to ship to lay to, and he gave me one.”

SATISFACTION OF IT.

“You really don’t mean Grouty enjoys such weather as this?” “No—that is only so far as it gives him an opportunity to find fault with it.

Fore-handed.

Little Katherine has been boarding on a farm last Summer, and many of the rural expressions are wholly unfamiliar to her. One day she chanced to hear her country hostess praising the good qualities of a certain thrifty neighbor. “He really ain’t got much, oompared to some folks,” said the farmer’s wife, “but be makes out wonderful well; he’s so fore-handed. That evening the man thus lauded happened to drop in, and Katherine Immediately sidled up to him, with ourious eyes. Slowly she revolved about the ehair in which he sat, and so persistently did she gase at him that the farmer's wife finally noticed it. “Well, Katherine,” she saM, “yon seem to find a good deal to look at in Mr. B.; don't you?” “Why,” replied the child, her lit-, tie forehead wrinkling In perplexity. “I did want to see his two uwor hands, but I oan’t. Is ho oittln’ oa ’em?”
