Tli" teacher's work will bo mainly to pnint out tho riches of Its content, not to explain dltlicitltles. The position of the 1'Milm detet mines Its value. It Is preceded by the l'saltu of the Cross. Only those who aio under the power of the cross can claim Its pnuulscs. There aie no gicen pas tines to those who hae not seen Clnist on the crosa. '1 In' telatloiishlp of the Lord to his chiMieu Is set foith In this l'salm as: I. The Divine Shepherd (vv. l-l). The teacher should iboioughly fa miliarize himself with the life and set vice ol u bhepherd. As our shop beid, 1. He feeds his sheep (vv. 1, -). The "green pastilles" aie for nourish ment. The Lord ulways provides food lor his own sheep, both temporal ami spiritual. He gives us our dally bread, but our highest and best food l.s Christ, the Biead bent down from lien en for our souls (John U:SS), of which If we eat we shall live loreer. 'J. lie glos rest (v. li). He not only gives lood, but he maketh his sheep to lie down. When the sheep have been satlslled with food they He down to test. Our Unite natures icqulre rest we cannot go on forever, so the Divine Shepherd has arranged rest ing places on the way, two of which are night uud the Subhuth. How sweet they both ure to thu Child of (Jodt Sometimes he makes us to take en foited rest. Jt Is most comforting to know that when be makes us llo down It Is lu the green pastures, not on tho dusty road or the rocky mouutulu side. Our shepherd sometimes leads us over steep and rocky roads', but this Is In order that we may reach the spots of green pasture. 3. He keeps the sheep In safety (v. 3). llo restores our souls. The rest by the still water results in the restoration of bodily and spiritual strength. In tho times or quiet he re stores the spiritual life by the feeding upon God through bis Word nnd means of grace. The restored soul Is led into the paths of righteousness, that is, in the performance of labor lor him. Ve have been saved not merely for our pleasuie, but that wo might do his good pleasure, that is, his work. We are saved to serve. 4. He guides the sheep In times of danger (v. -J). He goes with his own through danger uud trials. There Is no night so chirk or sea so stormy hut what we can hear the voice of the IJIvino Shepherd saying, "Be not afraid, It is I." May we have ears to hear I 0. He comforts his sheep in sorrow (v. 4). The rod was used by the shepherd to count his sheep. Passing under the shepherd's rod was the sign of ownership. Such acknowledgment would greatly comfort, even though the rod was the iustiumeut which caused the sonow. The conscious ness that it was laid on by the lov ing shepherd's baud would tin n the rod which smote to a staff to lean upon. II. The Divine Host (vv. 5, (J). 1. He spreads a table lu the sluht of our enemies (v. 0). Though dan gers are on every hand, the enemies plotting and scheming, the mighty shepherd piovides a feast for his own lu their sight. Wo can sit down to that feast with the assuiauce that no one can dlsluih us. 'J. He anoints our heads with oil (v. f). OH Is a s.vmhol of Joy. There should be no sad faces among Christ's ow u. 3. Goodness and mercy perpetually follow (v. (J). These aie God's two angels which encamp annul about those that fear him. They hold buck the enemies from overtaking us; we can feast at God's banquet table. Uven when the days seem dark and sovrows come thick and fast, God's goodness uud mercy still follow. 4. KiHrnully dwelling with God (v. 0). They shall no moie go out from his ptesence. He who liath begun a good work u us shall complete It unto the day of redemption. May every ono take this I'salni for himself and tiinko ChrJa Ids own per&onul bhepherd I Three Orders if Bclnns.

While a hundred or more children watched from win dows of the Musl.egoi Heights school Stuart 0. Moon, seventy-eight, Civil war veteran and wealthy retired lum berman, killed Ids tiju-year old grand daughter by i Hiving her skull with nn av. I nun Moot), tho child, had been sumnioru'd from her class roote to the school jnrd, where the grandfa ther, who hii'l been her confidant and pal, waited with tin ax, behind his hack. , "1 killed her heiause I love her," the old man said In mild tones to tho llrst man who seled him, Uov. W. A. Lyons. '"I wnnt'ed to save her from this world of misery and wickedness. I wanted to send her tender younjf Killed Her With an Ax. soul to the better world before sho would have hud opportunity to suffer. I wish I could go with her. But It won't he long before I can Join her over there." The children, who had henrd Irma's scream as her grandfather raised the nx and who hnd Hocked to the win dow In time to see tho killing, tum bled In panic from the school build ing. But possessed by sudden fenr, they huddled against tho entraiicc, un willing to move until the patrol wagon nnd nmbulauco had taken away the slayer and the slain. Kdwln II. Moon, father of the child nnd son of the man who did the kill ing, Is n prominent real estate man In this city. He could only account for the tragedy on the basis of Insanity. Tho granddaughter and tho elder Mr. Moon had been Inseparable compan ions almost since the child vyus born. NOW COMES ELECTRICAL 'JAG' San Francisco Man Produces All Symptoms of Alcoholic In toxication. Snn Francisco, Cal. Tho possibil ity of producing nil the symptoms of nlcohollc Intoxication on electric "Juice" attracted a good deal of In terest here recently when Dr. Albert Abrams of San Francisco demonstrat ed to medical men the use of tin elec trical device he has Invented. The feet of the subject are placed on a sheet of yrtic, an electrode Is placed upon the head, and, when the current Is turned on, one newspaper writer said: "John Barleycorn Is with you again. Tho 'kick' comes slowly nnd without any appreciation of the fact on the pnrt of the subject until he finds himself unduly loquacious, happy or sleepy." "Tho discovery," Doctor Abrams said, "1 based m the theory that unit of energy Is the electron nnd that ev ery materlnl thing Is simply n mani festation of different rates of 'vibra tion. I hnvo used the vibration of chloroform to produce tho effects of chloroform Itself." D Freed "With Honor" After Assault on "Hun" Denver. Paul Kennedy, ar rested for assault, was dis charged "with honor" In police court when he related the cir cumstances that led to his being taken Into custody. "My brother was killed In France," Kennnrd told the court, "and when this German fellow, August Something, yelled at mo that It wns too bad more Yanks weren't killed over there, I hit hltn-rhlt him hard, your honor." , "Car Maids" Flrjht for Jobs.

WIRED BY, LOVE Remarteblo Flag Made by Young American Girl, Country's History, From the Birth otj Independence, Woven Into Emblem In Honor of Heroes of Spanish-American War. I'caco unfurled million flngi throughout tho world, but not one oC them was as temarkable and romantic ns that which Josephine Mulford Wrought with her own bauds a hcoro ofj years ago In honor of the heroes of th Spanish-American war, observes Lon don Answers. Tho Hug on which Josephine; tolled night nnd duy for more than a yt V with o great lovo to Intplre her tin gors, Is so large that three battalion!! of soldiers could bo mnssed on It, nnd so heavy that half a dozen strong men could barely raise Us folds from the ground. But It Is tho romnnco of Its fnshlon lng thnt places It so far nbovo all Its rivals. It -was begun on tho first day of July, 1808, In the parlor of nn old home stead In New Jersey, nnd from tho llrst stitch to the last It wii9 never for a moment out of the hands or thoughts of tho young girl who had set herself this patriotic task. Every stitch was counted ns It was made; for It rep resented an American yoldler who wns lighting in Cuba. The Pennsylvania stnr was pnrtly made In the room In which, n century and u quarter earlier, Betsy Boss work ed, tinder Washington's guidance, on tho very llrst American ling which pro claimed the Independence' of the states and the star wns finished In the room where tho first continental congress met. To make Virginia's star sho traveled to Mount Vernon and ntltchcd It In one of tho rooms of Washington's horn, Tho Maryland stnr was made at Fort McIIenry, historically associated with "Tho Star-Spnnglod Banner" of Fran cis Scott Key, nnd New York's trtni was tnndo partly In tho very room 'In which Washington said goody-by to his officers, nnd pnrtly on hoard tho flag ship New York. And thus, making ns fnr as possibly each BUtch historic, the colossal task proceeeded, until the last of the 325, 000 stitches was made, with loving, It trembling, fingers, nnd she rose froni her year's work trlumphnnt, but shat tercd In health. Josephine lived to Bre her flog prond ly floating over Mndlson Square gar den, to thunders of checrn from m hundred thousand throats. Then enme a terrible reaction from the long strain, nnd within a few weeks tho hands that hnd tolled bo long and lovingly, were still In death. But the spirit of courageous Iots which Josephine Mulford breathed Into her work lives on foi courage cannot die. Health In Business. A business mnn walked into a dots tor's office the othr day. He looked In th pink of condition. "I want a thorough physical exam Inntlon," ho said The doctor hccommodnted him Heart was sound, lungs were hrnlthy, kidneys and all other organs function ing properly. "You're the most splendid specimen I've seen In n long time," said the doctor. "Thanks; I Intend to remain so," said the client. "You shnil go over in like this every six months. And X propose to hnve every man In n re sponsible position In my organization undergo a similar examination twW n year. "A competing firm recently put A mnn Into nn Importnnt Job who looked ns well ns I. lie broke down, nnd In the demoralization of the firm's busi ness thnt came with the breaking, our firm has taken over one of their big gest nnd best accounts. A condition of twenty yenrs' standing, which' he thought completely overcome, caused that man's breakdown. "I don't propose thnt my firm shall suffer through any such experience." Good, hard business applied t benlth. Doesn't good sense recom mend to every mnn such prudence? How many men can you recall wht hove discovered a serious state oi health too Into to mend? Haverhill Gazette. Cold Abundant In Siberia. Literally speaking, rivers In the Ok hotsk district hnve golden bottoms, says n bulletin of the British bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. Three men working In n prlmltlvo fashion In tho winter wash out easily up to five funts (00 ounces troy) of gold n day. The Okhotsk deposits con tnln ninny nuggets. Vuggets weighing one-half funt are not rare. Last win ter ono zolotnlk (0.1U7M7 ounce troy) of gold cost 20 rubles; at tho present time It costs 100 rubles. In spite of the rich deposits lu this district, many concessions are not being exploited. c A United States firm bns exploied tho mlno purchased from Stepunov, nnd Is energetically preparing to work It.
