This Psnlm is man's response to the goodness and mercy of God. It ex presses the Joy and gratitude of a for given sinner as he worships before God There Is too much In this Psalm for one to attempt to set It forth, so we must be content to display some of Its most prominent notes. I. Man's Entire Being Should Sing God'e Praise, v. 1. The true worship per praises God with every faculty of hla being; his Intellect, emotion, de sire;, affections nil unite In praising Jehovah. The entire being responds In a song of harmonious praise. Some praise God with their voices but not with their hearts; some with their In tellect bat not with their affections; some with their emotions but not with their wills. That praise which Involves the entire being alone is pleasing to God. II. The Benefits Granted, w. 2-6. The Psalmist exhorts man not to forget all God's benefits. This seems to be need ed now as well as then, for most of us are better at remembering our troubles and adversities, our losses and our sor rows, than we are at remembering out mercies and blessings. It would be a good thing for some of us to keep a record of the good things of life and see that, after all, our blessings out weigh our burdens. We have" more days of sunshine than of clouds, more Joys than we have of sorrows, more hours when we are free from pain than we suffer with pain. If God were as forgetful of us us we are of Him life would be u&rd Indeed. (1) Forgiveness of sins, 8. In forgiveness we are freed from the curse of sin and Its Mtcht and burdens are removed. We are not only for given, but we lire healed of sin's dis ease ! not only freed from the burdens of sin but of Its effects, so that we do not go after the thinus of this world. To be saved for heaven means that we are saved from the world. (2) Redemption, v. 4. We have been saved by Christ giving Himself as a ransom for our souls. (8) Satisfaction, v. 5. When God redeems, He so thoroughly renews the man that the good things which he gets from God satisfy him. His bless ings are so real that he finds satisfac tion in God. Men and women of the world are reaching out after fleeting things. They are ever grasping after something, but are never satisfied. Not so with the redeemed soul ; he flnd absolute satisfaction in the things which God gives him. .Worldlngs may be satiated, but God's redeemed alone are satisfied. (4) Executing Judgment in behalf ol the oppressed, v. 6. He Is always ou the side of the oppressed. God under takes for his own, and sooner or latei He will mete out Justice to all. There Is a reckoning day for the world coin log. Those who have done evil shall suffer loss ; those who have done good shall be rewarded. III. Attributes of God for Which He Should Be Praised, vv. 7-18. These attributes have been displayed in God'r dealings with his chosen people. Qi Merciful and graclou v.8. He Is slow to anger and plenteous In hut Cjr. An example of his mercy Is seen In the father of the prodigal son run nlng to meet his son nnd kissing him A very little thought will make verj Tlfljsjl how (Soil withholds his angfi nnd waits patiently for an opportunity to extend Ids men y. (2) He will not always "chide," vv. 8-12. When God forgives he forglvt forever. Men say they forgive, but how often they "chide" and "ke-i' anger." God has nut dealt with us no COfdtOg to our sins, for, as the henv ens are high above the earth, so great Is his merey toward them that the fear him. So really has (Jod forglvei us that our transgressions are as fai removed from us as the East Is from the West, an Incalculable distance. (3) He Is compassionate ami tender, vv. 13-14. This reveals God's fatherly heart. He flly knows our weakness. He does not deal with us as though we were strong. He knows how weak and fallible we are through the fall. It Is consoling to know that God considers our "frame" ; He knows that we are dust." (4) His mercy is everlasting, eternal, vr. 15-17. Man Is at best transitory, but God Is eternal. The one who rests his hopes in God is eternally safe. This should encourage us to lean net upon man but upon God. (5) God Is gracious to those who are in covenant relationship, v. 18. If we would enjoy these blessings revealed In God's attributes we must be God's children. His mercies are restrictive, only bestowed upon his own children. IV. A Call to All the Universe to Praise the Lord, vv. 19-22. Since God Is such a wonderful Being. He should have universal praise. His kingdom is over all; his Lordship should have recognition.

Fish, as paragus. beans, pumpkins and spin ach are not acid, ami yet their corro sion of tin is quite marked. This is prohahly due to antino compounds, substances related to ammonia. In the case of shrimps the cans are often eaten through In a comparatively short time. So alkaline Is the methyiainiue contained in shrimps that workmen iu the canneries find the skin eellng ofi their hands. Observation by some fan ners led to the discovery that If shrimps were Iced for a day before cauulng, the corrosive action of the Juices was greatly diminished. This is now the universal practice, in addi tion the cans are lined with paper to prevent the contact of the shrimps and the tiu. Serial No 017or,3. Notice lor Publication.
