Chrisiian Science Churches “God” was the subject of the Les-son-Sermon in .all churches of Christ Scientist Sunday July 1. ‘ The Golden Text was from Psalms 3:1, “0O Lord oru Dord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set they glory 4bove the heavens.”

Among the -citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: “Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the Lord your God” (Lev. 26:1.) ' _The Lesson-Sermon also included the fliowing passages from the Christian Sciepce textbook, “Science and Health with Key to the Seriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy: “One ,indinite God, good unifies” men and nations; constitutes the brotherhood of man; ends wars; fulfills thd Scripture, ‘Loe thy neighbor as thy, celf;” annihilates pagan and Christian idolatry—whateer is wrong in social, civil eriminal, political and religious codes; equalizes the sexes) annuls the curse on man and leaves nothing thdt can sin suffer be punished or destroy” (p. 340

Gas Once a Curiosity

When the first gas lights were introduced in Baltimore, in 1816, they were placed en exhibit in the museum there and crowds paild admission to see them. Newspaper accounts described them- as marvelous “lights without oil, tallow, wick or smoke.” The exhibit proved so successful that a gas company was formed the next year, and the streets of the city were soon lighted by the lamps. This wasg one of the first commercial installations in the United States.—Popular Mechanics Magazine. ;

T Mgy o - ¢e R e £ 7 DebtPajing in China ~ , Has Humorous Side ~ Many amusing tales are told of dif- . ficulties arising in China from the ani ;clent custom which decrees that eac: /manp must pay his dehts before th sun rises on New Year's morning. Practically every person in' China Owes some one else, all traunsactions being conducted vn the busis that ong may evade paying one’s debts until the new year, and it is not a Chinese trait to pay a bill until paywent has been requested at least twice. This accounts for the frantic haste In which the men rush here aud there trying at once to collect debts and avoid creditors. If one cannot meet his tinuncial ob.Mgations he must secure s uew loan from another person, and as there is ‘Do law, he may be forced to pay as .high as 50 per cent or more interest. To dun a debtor on New Year's day is not considered good form; bence it I 8 not uncommon ro see an ansions creditor carrying a lautern in broad daylight, seeking to find his debtor, on the assumption that, because of his carrying a light, it is still the night before. - Happy 1s the man who can outwit his creditors during the last precious hours of the old year, for he may then sall along in peaceful, undisturbed waters for another year.—lnez Marks ‘Lowdermilk, in the Dearborn Inde‘pendent. ’

'Dog Formally Tried - t | for Stealing Chicken ~ Today the satirists have plenty to ‘wear themselves out on, but one thing ‘that does not annoy them is the trial 10of dogs for committing the crime of stealing chickens. Racine, the great' ‘French poet and dramatist, whom w 2, loosely think of today as a placid soul living in a plucid age, satirized such a -trial in his day.

- He portrayed the case .of a dog accused of steuling and eating a capon, which had been scheduled to adorn somebody’s dinner table. Racine paints a ludicrous® picture in his play, “Les Plaideurs,” which means the attorneys, literally “pleaders,” of the dog before the court. The lawyers are as windy as ever they should be in such a case/ the judge as doggedly Intent on impartiality. The dog is condemmed to the galleys, although what he would do in the galleys is a subject of wonder. Perhaps he was sentenced to be a mascot. But the lawyer for the dog hits upon the idea of bringing before the court the dog's sons and-dungu-ters, a litter of puppies, “poor children that would be rendered orphans.” The judge is touched by this scene, for he also has children. The outcome of .the case is not related. Probably the dog was “simply knocked on the head.”—Kansas City Star.

Ring Fingers

For many centuries wedding rings were worn on the thumb, and even as late as the reign of George [ it was the rule for brides, although the wedding ring was placed on the finger now customary, to remove it, after the ceremony to the thumb. Ecclesiastical admonitions, however, had the effect of bringing that somewhat queer custom to an end.

It is a pretty belief, but Incorrect, that the fourth finger of the left hand was chosen for the ring finger because from that a vein ran directly to the heart. The choice was for practical reasons—to save the ring from unnecessary usage. That also is the reason for the ring being worn on the: left hand., . :

Harvesting Almonds But few people realize the trouble: taken In the cultivation of almonds.; They are the most important crop of! the island of Majorca, where many varletles are cultivated, and the fndustry I 8 so prosperous that as old! olive trees die they are replaced by almonds. ‘ : When the almonds are almost ripe: they are knocked off the branches by: long bamboo poles and then picked up, by women and children. The nuts are: separated from the husks after dry-. ing, and the shells are then broken. by hand or machinery and the kernels: extracted. °

Real Womanhood Admired I know a woman who is naturally. thoroughly feminine, and has many of’ those gentle qualities which make men: marvel. Suffrage has changed her somewhat: she has heard about her, wrongs until she believes she has; some. In addition, she is a spinster,: and somehow holds the men responsi-, ble for that. Still, she has frequent; flashes of beautiful natural womap-: hood, and the men love to bang around and admire her. There is: nothing the men admire so much as: real womanhood; nothing they so: much dislike as the new flapper type. —E. W. Howe's Monthly. :

Insects in Disguise

There are beetles that pretend to be: wasps, and plenty of files that try to' palm themselves off as unsavory ants. There is even a spider that assumes. the appearance of an ant. At first! sight it would seem that the possession! of eight legs would be a bar to the disguise, but, when eccasion requires, up: go the front pair of legs as counter-' feit antennae, Instances might be. multiplied. One Bouth American fiy| which happens to be first-class eating: goes about under a shield fashioned in' the appearance of a highly indigestible! ant. : hL sl
