HONOR PAID TO A. C. HILDBETB ■ B UpoD Betirement from Internal Bevenoe £ Service fie gets a Testimonial e In the retirement Monday Feb. 14 of . A. Oarlton Hildreth, chief clerk under I Internal Revenue Collector Moffet, the I U. 8. Government loses the services I of a courteous and highly valued offi- h rial, while the loss is Cape May County's gain, Mr. Hildreth having been chosen at the last November election clerk of that county for a five 8 year term. e Mr. Hildreth entered the U. S. Gov- e ernment service from which he now n retires July 1, 1899, becoming Ohief 8 Clerk in the Internal Revenue office a 8 year later to fill the vacany caused by 1 the death ot Charles K. MacPherson. 8 Mr. E. O. Shaw, of Gloucester n County, another efficient and popular h official in the servioe since 1902, sue- f oeeds Mr.; Hildreth as Chief Clerk, '' and Mr. John H. Erisman, of Camden, ^ is advanced to Mr. Shaw's former desk, causing a vacancy to be filled by the appointment from the Civil Service list of Mr. Harry R. Hunt, of Trenton. Previous to his final leave taking c Mr. Hildreth was greatly surprised * by the offer of a testimonial on the e part of his former associates in the 5 revenue office and other officials on 8 the Rtecond floor of the Government building. It comprised a very hand- 8 some and complete outfit of desk furniture, and while not intrinsically valued 0 at its weight in gold will doubtless be ° cherished by the recipient as a reminder of the high regard and esteem of the donors with whom he had been 8 so cloaely and pleasantly associated c for many years, and as carrying with 8 it the heartfelt with that fae'may long 4 live and . prosper in the new field of labor to which be has been called. 4 ' The First District Internal Revenue ' office undsr the administration of Mr. Moffet ranks high with the Depart- 4 ment in Washington, and deservedly * so, due in a great measure, to the c "* efficiency and integrity of his subordi- 4 nates. In the early days of the revenue offioe for this district there were petty * defalcations on the part of subordinates % in three instances, whioh the Collector 1 had to make good, temporarily at 1 least Nothing of the kind has oc- c curred, however, daring the p recent r incumbent's sixteen years admimstra- e tion, and though himself and all his r

v subordinates are required to give re- e sponsible bonds none of the bondsmen t been called upon to make good c the shortage of a penny due the Gov- 1 ernment during that period. awe f The little bunch of individuals who see chances in consolidation have inter- t ested a Newark newspaper in the < effort to obliterate Belleville. The ) recruit has the zeal of a convert 1 and the had language of a rabid temper- s fanatic; but it la doubtful if even 1 will make a serious matter out of a standing joke. Some of the Newark 1 men who are interested would like to j have Belleville annexed before the , coming national census They are sure ] it would make Newark more chesty. — f Jersey Journal. s I Senator Prince, of Passaic County, i has introduced a bill to provide for in- E dustrial education in the schools' ' throughout the state. The time has ; and in fact, has been here for a ( while, when the question of the early ( education of children for the vocation i which they hope to pursue, demands < attention, says .the Passaic News. 1 Education to our forefathers meant 1 something leading to one of tb6 then f three professions. The boy who was j unable to go to school enough to study { one of these thVpe was left to gain a , livelihood by his bands on the farm, in i the shop or in commercial lines. There t are many shining examples of the sue- t of men in all these lines as a re- * suit of the application of the best that 1 they (knew. Then came a time when ] the professions found the ranks of J callings too much crowded to , Invite men of college education, but j they were'not provided with an educa- c tion which leads to many of the other 1 equally if not more lucrative callings ' of the later day. The trend of the ' times makes it necessary to become a 1 bread; winner at an earlier age than ' formerly, and it is with thiB fact in ( view, and also the fact that education ] along practical lines is necessary to t put a young man in possession of his i talents that educators feel the ! necessity of incorporating industrial - education into the public school cur- ' ricula. .

No Man is Stronger Than His Stomach A strong man is strong all over. No man can ba strong who is (offering from weak stomach with its consequent indigestion, or from some other wH cf the stomach and its associated organs, which im- " pairs digestion and nutrition. For when the stomach is weak or diseased there is a low ol the nutrition contained in food, which is the source of all physical strength. When a man "doesn't feel just right," f when be doesn't sleep well, has an uncomfortable feeling in the stomach after eating, is languid, nerroos, irritable and despond- ! eat, he is losing tha nutrition needed to make strength. •■a* a mat I staritf ana Dr. Plaroa'a Golden medical i DJaearafT.

~9M SCHOOL Lesson IX.— First Quarter, For Feb. 27, 1910. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Matt, vll, 13-29. Memory Verses, 13, 14 — Golden Text, Matt, vii, 21 — Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. 8 teams. Life eternal Is the gift of God In Christ Jesus and can be obtained only aa a free gift wholly apart from any works or merit of ours. But He came to give us not merely life, but life abundantly (Rom. tL 23; John x, 10). All who have eternal life shall enter . the kingdom, but there may be an abundant entrance into the kingdom (John 111, 3. 5; II Pet. L 10; 111. There may be a saved soul and a lost Ufe, n saved soul and no service to be rewarded, no crowns to cast at His feet, but such la not His desire for His redeemed a Cor. lli. 11-15; II John 8; Rev. iv, 10). Concerning life as the gift of Jesus Christ Himself is the way. and the only way, for there la none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved (John xiv, 6; Acts It, 12). While any one who will may enter through this strait gate upon this narrow way. comparatively few find it because few are willing to acknowledge themselves lost and deserving of hell and, pleading gnllty, put all their trust In the precious blood of Christ The gate Is entirely too strait for any who Insist upon bringing with them a single shred of their own righteousness, and the way is too narrow to permit any but the Lord Himself and those who are wholly His to walk with us In It. Let us. however, praise God for the words "Him that cometh" and "whosoever will." In : Luke sill, 24, 25, we read that a time ! will come when many will seek to j enter in and shall not be able, but that I time is not yet, for the door Is still ! open and the Lord waits to be'graclous. I He has not yet risen up to shut the I door. The false prophets are abound- . ing more than ever In these days, concerning whom the Lord said long ago. j "I have not sent these prophets, yet | they ran; I have not spoken to them. I yet they prophesied;" "They are proph- I eta of the deceit of their own heart" ■ (Jer. ttIH 21, 2G1. Those who deny the I supernatural birth of Christ or His deity or His suffering In the sinner's | stead or nis literal resurrection from j the dead are. not bearing messages from | but from the great adversary. ' Yet multitudes are willingly deceived the god of this world, who is in | so many ways blinding the minds of j them who believe riot. Many of those who deceive and are being deceived seem to bear a form of good fruit, but that cannot be good In the sight of God which does not proceed from the True Vine. The Jesus said that false Christs and prophets should arise who would show great signs and wonders and. If possible, deceive the very elect (Matt, xxlv. 24). The Spirit through Paul said that Satan himself Is transformed into an angel of light (II Cor. xl. 14). While it Is true that God gives eternal life as a free gift to all who truly believe, apart from any works of ours, as the Spirit teaches everywhere, yet It is squally true that no mere word of mouth which is not born of the amounts to anything, and where there Is a living faith, a faith that there will be a life corresponding. "Not every one that saith. but he that doeth." The light must shine, the works must be manifest, according to Epb. 11, 10; Tit. ill. S. But these works must be works wrought by God through us; otherwise, however good they may seem to men, they will not stand. According to verse 22. there be teaching and casting out deand many wonderful works, but all disowned of God. Note carefully this teacher who says, "Many will say to me In that day; • • • then will I profess to them: 1 never knew you; depart from me. ye that work iniquity." is the same King who will say to some, "Depart from me, ye cursed. Into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels" (xxv, 41). He is the appointed judge of all mankind, to whom every oDe shall give account, either at His judgment seat for beor at the great white throne a thousand years later. Jesus is God, the only Saviour of sinners, the Great Head of the church, the Messiah of Israel, the King of -kings and Lord of lords, the only one with whom we have to do, and with us It Is a question of life or death. Shall wp hear His word and believe It and receive Him and live, or shall we turn our backs upon Him and His word and make lies onr refuge and perish? His word Is truth; He is the truth rind the only foundation. All else Is a lie. and from the adversary, but His wrath shajl sweep away the refuge of Ues (Isa". xxvlli, 16, 17)- We are either In the ark and safe from the coming storm or outside and under the wrath of God. We do not wonder that the people recognized an unusual power in His words, for In Him was fulfilled the prophecy, "I will pnt My words In His month, and He shall speak them untt^tbem all that I shall command Him" (Dent, xviil, 18). If we are His faithful messengers and will speak only His message we can count upon His honoring His own word, even as He assured Jeremiah (Jer. 1, 7-8) and the apostles (Matt x, SO, 40) and manifested it in Stephen and the others (Acts 11, 41; vi, 10; x, 44; xlT, 1).

Verses 1-2 — Why Is it that men, not very good themselves, are se harsh in their judgment of other men? When men condemn others on mere suspicion, what Is generally the real ground for their condemnation? Why Is It that a truly good man will never judge another harshly, or on mere suspicion? 3 What reason is there to believe that , a person 1b guilty of the same, or a similar, sin, when he accuses another . of it on mere suspicion, and does he not thereby cause others to Judge him after his own judgment? Verses 3-5 — Why are men so apt to think lightly of their own sins, and to magnify the very same sins in others? It Is but right that a man shonld first forsake his own sins, before try- . Ing o help others do so, hut Is It Impossible for one Binner to lnduoe an- 1 other to repent? Why or why not? How much success Is attained by unsptritual pastors, or Sunday school teachers, in leading sinners to repentance, notwithstanding they may teach the real truth with ability? Verse 6 — What considerations will prompt a truly good man to lovingly reprove pinners, and try to turn them from their sins? What class of persons are those with whom advice or reproof is hopeless, and who but insult a person for his efforts to help them? Does Jesus here direct us to give up all effort to save those who an- " I swer to "dogs" and "swine" and If not , I what does he mean? Verses 7-8 — Seeing God gives us so j many things without our asking, or ! even knowing our need, of them, why 0 | Is It that he gives some of the most | vital blessings only by our asking? I What is the significance of the three ! words, ask, seek, knock? | Why does God often keep us walt- | Ing for what we seem to so urgently j need, and to only give them to us after' earnest and Importunate prayer? ] What are some of the benefits of Importunate prayer? I Why is it that notwithstanding the Invitation, and the promise of Jesus, j and ten thousand testimonies as to | the value of prayer, that It Is so little ; used? | Verses 9-11 — If we are loyal to God. | what reasons are there to believe that I God will answer all our prayers, in j the sense at least of withholding all ; bad things, and giving us every necessary good thing? Verse 12 — What Is the relation between our love and actions to our fellows, and our getting good things from them, and how does this bear on the question of temperance?

Verses 13-14— In what sense is the gate to eternal life narrow, and the way to destruction broad? What are the conditions for enters j Ing into eternal Ufe? If a man repents of, and gives up all his sins but one, why is It impossible for him to pass through the gate which leads to eternal life? Verse 15 — Are there any false prophets In these days. and. If so, describe them? Is a pastor, or a Sunday school teacher, a false prophet If he preaches what he does not practice? Verse 16 — If a man is a good hus1 band, a kind father, an agreeable 1 neighbor, charitable, honest, and Industrious. but does not belong to any 1 church, what reason Is there for us > to conclude that he is not a Christian? Verse 17 — If a man attends church and prayer meetings regularly, and > takes part in the services, but is ugly ; and cross to his wife and children. what reason Is there for us to con- ' dude that he Is not a hypocrite? 1 v How would you class a woman, active In church and missionary work, who habitually repeats stories, wheth1 er true or false, against the character j ' of her neighbors? 1 Verse 18 — From the teachings of 1 1 Jesus how would you demonstrate | that a person may, or may not, be his follower who does not delight to do good, and having the opportunity, is not actively engaged In doing It?

Verses 24-27 — Does Jesus mean, ] that we are to do literally as his wordB read, In this sermon In the mount, or to take them aa principles and do aa he did, farm the personal acquaint- " ance of the Father, and then do His will In the details?
