Ills friends knew that he would rather miss half an hour of a play than ! cut short his after dinner cigar, and they were astonished when he announced that he had quit smoking. "What's the trouble V he was asked. "Opsonic test," he replied gloomily. "What in the world is that?" "I've been run down of late and feel ing pretty blue. As there is consump tion In my family, I consulted a specialist. He said I didn't have the disease yet, but he would tell me what my chances were of getting it. We re constantly breathing tuberculosis germ8 ne explained, but healthy blood tag the power t destroy them. So he took a drop of my blood and inoculated it with a certain number of germs. In half an hour be examined it under the microscope and found that only half as many germs had been killed as should have been the case. Normal, healthy blood is said to have an opsonic test of 100, so my test was only 50. He advised me to build up my strength by sanitary living lots of i fresh air day and night, plenty of sleep, wholesome food and moderation In work and pleasure.' "Where does smoking come in?" "He said tbat tobacco had an extraordinary effect in decreasing the power of the blood to destroy germs. Some men who smoke a great deal have an opsonic test of zero that Is, their blood has no effect whatever on germs. I am fond of my cigar, but when a specialist levels an opsonic test all cocked and primed at your head and says, 'Tobacco or your life,' what are you going to do but throw up your hands?"

A LAUNDRY HINT. Turpentine Prevents Silk Stockings From Fading. There was once a time when black silk stockings were considered fashionable with every toilet, but now it has become the fashion among well dressed women to have everything match, and from the crown of the bead to the tip of the toe must be a blending of one color, which does not permit of the hard contrast of a black shoe and stocking against a light gown. The only trouble with silk stockings is the washing of them. If the laundress is not an expert in tbat line a delicate and expensive pair can be me best way is to mi a oasin witn warm water and soapsuds. Let the stockings soak a few minutes, then rub gently and rinse again with water of the same temperature. If the stockings are white a little bluing should be put in the water both times. In that way you will avoid having them turn that peculiar shade of yellow that j all silk is sure to do. ! Using a few drops of turpentine in the water with the soap will prevent the most delicate shades, such as pink, j green and blue, from fading. j Tan stockings are the most difficult1 of all to manage. They will get a greenish tinge to them that is the despair of the owner, for it is impossible to keep them from running, no , matter what care is taken, and the j water In which tbey are washed is j sure to be discolored. The best way is to wash a new pair j first. Though the stockings may fade very little, the water will be a dark brown. Then take an old pair and let them soak in the water, In tbat way dyeing the old ones the original color. No fine stockings should ever be Ironed. After washing they should be shaken out and hung over a towel rack or the back of a chair. The hot iron removes the gloss and makes the stockings look as if they were cotton, not silk. AS TO OBEYING. That Is the "Last Straw," According to Up to Date Bride. Just one thing the average fall bride wishes to know is his: Why should she promise to obey when neither the brides of the Roman nor Greek communions, Jewish brides and Quaker brides, are compelled to make this old fashioned promise? And the worst part of it is the untruth of it. Women are no longer conscienceless creatures who must be commanid to be good and laden with ?U?er inf truloDf whenever their other when they were uneducated burden bearers and never held converse with ! guests this was doubtlessly a wise clause.

While it is thought nothing short of shocking that daughters shonld rebel at this idea of placing themselves in subjection to their husbands, many are not averse to giving them in marriage to men already possessed of wives from whom they have been divorced, and, while many consider it a fearful sign of the times and an indication of coming disaster that it should even be proposed that this vow of obedience should be deleted from the marriage service, yet few would be prepared to say that because women of other religious views do not make this vow they are therefore bringing their sex I to naught and uprooting all the tradi tions of the race. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. A short, stout person must never be taken as a full length picture. The best photo would be sitting half length. The red nosed girl should be careful of her diet, as affections of tbe stomach are sure to heighten the color in the offending organ. The woman who refrains from eat ing onions because of annoying hoi neighbors can often indulge in her favorite dish, even when she is going out, by eating sprigs of fresh parsley that have been saturated in vinegar. If one has a red nose it is well to cultivate as much color as possible in the cheeks to tone it down. This redness need not be artificial, though if rouge be ever justifiable it is for the girl with that sore affliction, a hopelessly red cose. Never allow the muscles of the lower limbs to become tense through the rapidity of your walking, which onlj Impedes your progress by interrupting the movement from hip to foot and results in a gait disastrous, awkward and unbeautiful. If your bands are inclined to perspire wash them occasionally in warm water in which a little borax has been dissolved a teaspoonful to a quart is the right proportion. Rinse in cleat water. Dry and rub in a little lemon juice. Don't use the borax very often, as it will make the skin dry and inclined to crack. Mrs. W. C.

The Sunday School Commentary SERMON, NOV. 8, BY REV. D. M. STEARNS.

ICopyrigiit, 1008, by Aineritan Preis AvocUtion. How beautiful the description of David in II Sam. xxlii, 1, "David the son of Jesse, the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel," and notice iu verse 2 from whence he received bis messages, "The spirit of the Lord spake by me, and His word ' was iu my tongue." The tongue and the pen were David's, but the messages were the Lord's by Uls spirit. See also Ex. iv, 12; Jer. I, 7-9; Ezek. IU, 10, 11; John xii, 49, and note how the prophets and eveu our Lord Himself received their messages from God the rather. The spirit of Christ In tbe prophets had mainly a twofold theme, the suffering of Christ and the glory that should follow (I Pet. L 11), and in no psalm are these more fully set forth than in Ps. xxli. written as If by an eyewitness and giving some of the very words He uttered on the cross ' (verse 1), yet pointing on to His resur- j rectlon kingdom and glory, saying, j "The kingdom is tbe Lord's, and He is the governor among tbe nations" (verse 28). The psalm for today seems to refer to tbe millennial glory of Israel and yet was the personal experience of David and may be that of each indi-i vidual believer. David knew well the life of a shepherd and what it meant j to care kindly for the sheep, and even j to put bis life in danger -for them, as when he delivered one of his lambs from a lion and a bear and slew them both (I Sam. xvii, 34-36). As be thought of his care of his flock he could look up to the living God, the Lord of hosts, and say, "Jehovah is my shepherd," j and as he knew that his sheep were safe and well cared for under his watchful care, so he was sure that he was even better cared for by his shep- j herd, the stone of Israel (Gen. xllx', 24; Ps. Ixxx, 1). Hear the Lord's own words in this connection in John x, 11: "I am the good shepherd. Tbe goodj shepherd glveth his life for the sheep." I Think of Him also as great shepherd ; living in us and working in us to will ! and to do of His good pleasure (Heb. xill, 20, 21). Then see (I Pet. v, 1-4) : where as the chief shepherd He will ; reward those who for Him feed His j flock. All the blessedness comes from ; being able to say My Shepherd. We may know all tbe facts about . Him and believe all that He says He is and has done and will do, but if there is no personal appropriation there is no benefit. The soul must be able to; say My Redeemer, My Lord, My Shep-' herd. Then we can rest in Rom. viii, 32, and know of a surety that we shall i not want- for there ls.no want to

BY REV. S. Topic temperance meeting. A atnAy of temperance organizations. Jer. xzxv, 1-19. The temperance question is one of the most absorbing ones of the present day. The fight is on. and the temperance cause up to date has won glorious success, over one-half of the United States now being under prohibition or local option. With such signal success the movement must be pushed all the harder by every one interested in ridding our country of its greatest curseintemperance. The trouble with reforms usually is that the reformers gradually become tired of their work, and the old order of things soon prevails. It has already been predicted that the temperance agitation has about reached its height and will soon subside. But such prophecies should be doomed to failure. With success at hand, no individual worker, no organization, should abate by jot or tittle the most strenuous efforts to completely overthrow this gigantic evil. It has been said that "eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.' It is just as true in this case as concerning liberty. Only eternal vigilance can put down the saloon and keep it down, and thus practically win a complete victory for temperance and sobriety In our land. The curse of the saloon and its debauching Influences have long been recognized, and there have been temperance societies and organizations for

them that fear Him ana nve opnsuu.v before Him (rs. xxxiv, J), 10; Ixxxlv, 11). Lying down is restful, and green pastures speak of satisfaction; satisfied and restful. He satisnetn tbe hungry 6oul. There is such a thing as abiding satisfied (Prov. xix, 23), and yet there is a satisfaction tbat will be only when we awake In His likeness (Ps. xvii. 15). In Him dwelleth all the fullness! of the Godhead (CoL 1, 10; 1L 9), and if we are not lilled full in Him the dimcult y is with us and not with Him. Not only rest and fullness, but quiet ness of soul, is ours also in Him (verse ! 2, margin). He is "The Lord our Righteousness" (Jer. xxilL 6), and the work of righteousness Is peace, and the service of righteousness Is quietness, and assurance forever. When; He giveth quietness, ' who then can ! make trouble? (Isa. xxxil, 17; Job xxxiv, 20.) Like sheep we are prone to wander, and straying sheep must be sought, for they do not return of their own accord; therefore David said: "I hare gone astray like a lost sheep. Seek thy servant" (Ps. cxlx. 17G). His sheep can never ierlsh, but may lose the joy of salvation; hence the prayer, "Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation" (John x, 28; Ps. II, 12). Being righteousness itself. He can lead only in paths of the same, and this He does, as He does all else, not for our sakes, but for His Name's sake (verse 3; I John 11. 12; Ezek. xxxvi, 22). Let us say: "Lord, I place my band In Thine and will not murmur nor repine. Content whatever lot I see, since 'tis my God that leadeth me." Our whole life here is lived In the shadow of death, for it is always true as David said elsewhere, "There Is but a step between me and death" (I Sam. xx, 3). But He is with us every day and all the way, and nothing can touch us unless He permit it, and if He allows death to touch us it will be a gain, a very far better "absent from the body, present with the Lord." A table in the presence of bis enemies was many a time David's experience while fleeing from Saul and Absalom. It will be Israel's in millennial days. It will be ours as far as we need it, and It is for God's glory. Our future as be lievers Is all told in verse C. God is love, and love Is kind, and therefore lie cannot permit anything that is not loving kindness as He sees It. however it may look to us. Here we may dwell in Him and He in us (John xiv, 23; xvii, 23; II Cor. vL 1-18), and by and by it will be for every child of God "forever with the Lord," and with Him on His throne (I Thess. Ir. 17; Rev. IIL 21). May we ever bear His voice as in Isa. xliiL L 2; xlvlll, 17; John xlv, 27). H.

its origin in a contention held "in 1$G3 at Saratoga, it publishes temperance periodicals for young people and adults and a very large number of tempering books and tracts. The Woman's Christian Temperanc union has been called "the sober second thought" of tbe wonderful woman's crusade of December. 1873, and tbe first half of 1S74. Tbe organization was effected in a convention held at Cleveland in November of 1871. It now has branches for tbe young women and the children and has extended everywhere, exerting an enormous influence for good. It has departments for the spread of temperance education, social purity and many other noble causes. The Independent Order of Good Templars, originating In 1851, found , a national organization in May, 1855, in a convention at Cleveland. It admits women on an equality with men. Its pledge requires lifelong total abstinence. The Prohibition party, after many state campaigns, participated first in a national presidential election in 1872. Its candidates have been Black, Smith, Dow, St. John, Flsk, Bid well. Levering, Woolley and Swallow. It holds that intemperance is a national Issue, not to be settled by local efforts. The Sons of Temperance arose la 1S42 from tbe famous Washingtonlaa movement. It is a total abstinence association with charitable and benefit features. Tbe Catholic Total Abstinence Union of America was founded on Washington's birthday, 1S72. in Baltimore, and ' it is doing a fine and aggressive work. The first Band of Hope was formed in Leeds. England. In 1847. and It soon became a popular name for temper ance organization, especially among lam young. EIBI.K READINGS.

Our Pledge. , -"Relying on the Lord Jesus Chrisc for salvation" how grateful these words must be to our Master, Christ, as tbey are said week by week by It seems as thocgli there Is murmur of such words always rising from tbe world like sweet Incense which must do something to counterbalance the uuarw bvuuui ui ui3iuciuj niro rcjcv tiou. At times, of course, tbe murmur becomes a great shout when a convention of Christian Endearorers gathers in tens of thousauds. But probably there is not a single minute In any part of the twenty-four hours In which some voice or voices are not professing reliauce on tbe Lord Jesus Christ for salvation. Personally I greatly rejoice in the distinction which is made between reliance on Christ for salvation and thff trust for dally strength to liTe a goodly and righteous life. Salvation deals with our deliverance from tbe power of sin wliicb would binder our fellowship with God. . while, trust for dally strength looks toward tbe positive side of Christian living. In virtue of which we are able to do great ex plolts for God In the world. Rev. F. B. Meyer. B. A. in Irish Endeavorer. Keystone 8tat Endeavor.
