BY REV. S. foplc Living- for the day or atamitr. Sb. Til. IS, If; Matt, xvl, 24-27. 'God bu glren us a choice between two worlds the present and the future. To glYe each the supreme place In our hearts and lives Is Impossible. ,We may hare whichever we desire, but no man can have both. We cangot lire supremely for both the present and eternity. The question, therefore, as to which one we shall live for becomes) a most serious one. Shall we lire for today or for eternity? Each one must answer that question for himself. There Is no escape from it. We cannot dodge the Issue. We cannot ignore It or neglect It. it nnM Mm that as between two inch issues there would be no doubt ! as to our choice. When we compare time with eternity we would suppose that all would naturally say, "We will Mrs for eternity." But the fact is that the natural tendency of mankind la to lire for today, for the present. The present is seen, it Is so real to us, nd eternity seems so far away. Many therefore conclude that the present is cure and they will lire for it and run the risk of there being an endless life beyond the grave. Yet what an awful mistake! The invisible is not unreal. Indeed, the unseen things even in this life are often the most real and most powerful. What power on earth is greater than gravitation? It holds the Universe together. Yet it is invisible, nnseen. What Is more real and more Inspiring than a mother's love? Yet who ever saw a mother's lore? If we can believe In the reality of the unseenin this life, much more should we belter in the reality of the future te, though unseen, upon the testimony of God's - word and upon the erarlags of our own hearts for Immortality and since the immortality f the soul demands an eternity. The temporality of this life should Inspire us to lire for eternity. "The things wtifca are seen are temporal." 'All iking that we see hare been made. Once they did not exist, and hence they will at some time cease to exist. Therefore we should ."look not at the things which are. seen, but at the things which are not seen, for the thtnga which are seen are temporal, hat the things which are not seen are eternal." How temporal worldly things! Wealth, pleasure, fame, power, position, all may fade away in a day, and if they do not leare us we hall soon leare them and may be called to do so at any moment. What folly, then, to bound our lives by the cradle and the grave ... when their boundaries may be eternal! If we could gain all this present life it would not pay us if the price we paid were the eternal loss of our lives. Through Jesus Christ alone we may obtain eternal life. Let us accept it in Him and through .Him, glje eternity the The Sunday St. Andrew's Catholic Fifth nd South C streets.

A Piece of Thin Cardboard Will Cut Through Wood. Velocity has a great deal to do with one substance's ability to break through another, and it is remarkable what can be accomplished by a comparatively soft substance against a much harder one when the former is given enough velocity.' A bullet made of a tallow candle would smash flat if fired against a board from a toy gun, but when shot from an army rifle it will go right through the board. A stream of water has been known to hare such swiftness of movement that a sword was broken in two when a strong man tried to cut it through. Cyclones have been known to drive such frail projectiles as straws well into a tree. Au interesting" experiment showing what a soft substance can do may be performed by attaching a bristol board disk to the motor of ah electric fan and setting it to revolving at the fan's usual rate. If a piece of wood, such as a lead pencil, for example, be carefully applied to the edge of the revolving disk, the wood will very ( readily be cut through. Of course lr the disk were to revolve slowly the wood would soon blunt its edge. Pathfinder. s Roaring Muscles. "If a writer wrote of roaring muscles, you would laugh at him. Joints crack, the stomach thunders, but muscles, you would say, don't roar. That is your mistake. They do." The speaker, a physician, put his finger in his ear. "I hear a muscle roaring now," said he. "Try it, and you, too, will hear the sound. And to prove that it is the sound of a muscle, put a plug of wood in your ear instead, and you will hear nothing. "Contracted muscles give out a roaring sound. Relaxed muscles are silent. This fact is of use in diagnosing certain diseases. The stethoscope makes the muscular roars audible, and those strange voices proclaim the presence of such diseases as tetanus, meningitis or strychnine poisoning, while

silence on the muscles' part is, so to'Demas Coe,

speak, a sullen admission of the pres ence in their midst of atrophy, degen eration, paralysis." Buffalo Express. It Is Well. It is well to carefully cultivate tastes. Ruskln says, "Tell me what you like and I will tell you what you are." It is well to study human character. Bodenstedt says: "In the face of every human being his history stands plainly written; his innermost nature steps forth to the light. Yet they are the fewest who can read and understand." It is well to "brush up against the world." Goethe says: "Talent forms itself in secret. Character is the great current of the world." It is well to be never cast down. Elizabeth Barrett Browning says: I.t no one till h!s death Be called unhappy. Measure not the work Until the day's out and the labor done. Who the Mound Builders Were. Who were the mound builders of North America? The Rev. Dr. Bryce of Winnipeg has examined a large number of these, '- interesting structures and is of the opinion that they were built by the Toltecs and mark the course of the Toltec Immigration from the south along the Mississippi and Ohio to the great lakes and the St. Lawrence, along the Missouri and long the Mississippi proper to the Rainy and Red rivers. This would make the earliest mound date from about 110O A. D. Boston Herald. Easy to buy, easy to try, the best, wholesome, appetizing' breakfast is Mrs. Austin' famous pancake-

The Sunday School Commentary SERMON, JAN. 10, BY REV. D. M. STEARNS.

ICbpTrifht. 1908, br American Prns AssocUtiea. On that last night before Hi cruci fixion He said, "It is expedient for you that I go away, for if I go not awsy the Comforter will not come uuto you. but If I depart I will send Him unto you. and when He is come He will convince the world of sin and of righteousness and of Judgment" (John xvL" t. 8. As He left them on that ascen sion day He told them to tarry In Jeru salem until the Spirit came, as He said that He would; hence we find them in an upper room in Jerusalem, perhaps the same one where He had kept the Passover with them, continuing in one accord in prayer and supplication. The women are there, too. and Mary, His mother, and His own brethren (Acts 1, 141, who bad evidently come to the point of receiving their brother as the Messiah. Contrast John vii. 5. i think this is the last mention of Mary, His mother. How blessed to say farewell to her till we meet her in glory at a prayer meeting! "With one accord" is a very Important phrase in this book. It is used Just seven times In a good connection and four times In a bad one (I, 14; li. 1. 46: ir, 24; v. 12; viil. 6; xv. 2S. and vii. 57; xli, 20; xviii. 12; xix. 29i. This Is suggestive also, for seven is the greatest number denoting perfec tion, while four Is the worldwide num ber, and we know that the whole world lieth in the wicked one (I John r, 13. R. V.). Seven is also a three and a four, the Trinity and the resurrection. on behalf of the whole world. If any do not see significance in numbers, let them be teachable sod patient with those who do. If believers could only be of one accord, what great things might be seen in answer to prayer and patient waiting upon God! -Whether the election of Matthias was of God or only of Peter and the others, we may perhaps not be sble to decide till we know ss we are known. We shsll surely know when we see the twelve thrones occupied of which Jesus spake. Ten days having passed since He left them, which, added to the fotfy days between resurrection and ascension, completed the fifty of Lev. xxIU. 12-16, they being with one accord in one place, the Holy Spirit came as promised, accompanied by a sound from heaven as of a rushing, mighty wind, which filled all the house where they were sitting. There appeared onto them cloven tongues, like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them, and they were all filled with, the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues as the Spirit gsve them utterance (verses 2-4). Thus was His word before .Hia, ascension fulfilled, "Xe shall

METHODS OF CLEANING. Making Windows, Mirrors and tin- . sightly Fleers Leek Well. . To clean windows and mirrors tie op some finely powdered whiting In a small piece of muslin and dab It over the glass thoroughly. The dirtier the glass Is the more whiting It will take up. Now smear it smoothly with a damp rag and when perfectly dry rob It off with a lather. If alcohol is used Instead of water the whiting will dry In much less time and the glass receive a higher polish. The corners of the panes should receive particular attention. Tbey are often left dirty, spoiling the whole sppesrsnce of the window. If an old floor shows unsightly cracks the following treatment will render it more sightly: Make a thin solution of glue and add to every four quarts a tables poonful of alum. Steep In the solution newspapers torn Into shreds. Press this mixture Into the cracks while still warm, and It will be found tbst this homemade papier mache will eventually become as bard as wood. The floor may now be paint ed or stained if the boards are unspot ted. In case a dark stain or paint Is to be need add a little coloring matter to the glue. A great many housekeepers are troubled with the loss of polish from their mahogany furniture, particularly the piano, over which a thick greasy sub stance seems to settle. The best wsy to remedy this Is to wash quickly, a small piece at a time, with lukewarm water in which a little pure white soap has been dissolved. Rinse with clear water of the same temperature. dry with a soft flannel and polish with the grain of the wood by using n soft piece of chamois skin. Only In. excep tionally bad cases is it nccesssry to apply a furniture polish, snd then care must be taken to get a reliable furniture dressing; otherwise the delicate finish may be ruined. From tbe standpoint of comfort cork carpet is decidedly the thing for the bathroom or dressing room. It Is warm to the feet and Is essy to clean. Oilcloth should be avoided in bathrooms because it is so cold to walk upon. . The supplies in tbe bathroom are no less important than those of tbe kitchen. Besides its hot wster bags, big snd little, ammonia, collodion, limewater and sweet oil. a 1 per cent eolation of carbolic acid, a box of absorbent cotton snd a roll of bandages should be kept at band. With these ready for use an accident, such as a burn or cut, may easily be treated and pain spared tbe victim. The acid eolation is useful In all esses of Injury because of its cleansing qualities. If a cut is to be treated tbe wound should first be washed In clear water and then dipped In the solution. After this paint ft with collodion. The latter stops .the bleeding and, serves as a varnish to prevent the , entrance of dirt. ;- - . : : ' BASKET FOR CLOTHES, Of Great Assistance to Woman Whs Ara Thsir Own laundresses.

This filling was not sufficient for all future time, for we find some of the same people filled from time to time, again and again (ir. 8. 31).
