No out; ciiii tin vi- any iiiorc than that. IVoph- should t i 1 1 I time for (loiiii; everything that oti,'ht to he done, for there in no enjoy ment more abiding than this, What llie idle anil careless man throws away and loses forever, the diligent and thouglitf ul man sfores uwuy to hold eternally. No man will live longer than is necessary to fulfill his mis sion, ami he will have to im prove every moment if he ful fills it well. Kvery dav hrings its own ob ligations, and he who would not have the present hour torn like a blank from the bonk of life must use it as it passes never to return. Life to him who wishes not to live in vain is thought and action. Any other mode of ex istence is a living death. The man who aims to make his thought and action tell for good has time enough. Frank Waleott says: "Lots of time for lots of things, Though tis said that time has wings. There is always time to rind Ways of being sweet and kind; There is always time to sharo Smiles of goodness everywhere; Time to send the frowns away, Time a gentle word to say, Time for helpfulness, and time To assist the weak to climb, Time to give a little flower, Time for friendship, any hour. Rut there is no time to spare For unkindness anywhere." Selected. THE PARSON'S LAMB. l'arson Johnson, an evangel ist of color, was caught hug ging one of tin; finest "ewe" lambs of the congregation, who was a very popular young lady and it created quite a stir. So Rrudder Johnson was brought up for trial. "You have seen these great pictures, 1 suppose, so you know dat de great Shepherd am always pictured with a lamb "in his arms." said Brud- i der Johnson. ''Yes, sah, pahson, dat am j so," admitted Deacon Jones. "Den Rrudder Jones, what I am wrong in the shepherd of I dis flock having a lamb in bis I arms?" j This was too much for Brud- der Jones, so he proposed that the people have a call meeting ! that afternoon. Alter the point ! was discussed at the afternoon I meeting the following resolu i tion was adopted: ! '-Resolved. Dat forthe future ! peace of the congregation, dat the next time Rrudder Johnson feels called on to take a lamb of tie Hock in his arms, dat lie pick out a ram lamb." ONCE QUITE ENOUOH. "Did you ever," said one preacher to another, "stand at the door after your sermon, and listen to what people said about it as they passed out?" Replied he: "I did once" a pause and a sigh "but I'll never do it again." Saved His Wife's Life. My mfr would have heen ill tier Ifiave toilay." rile (I. II.

Royal is equally valuable in the preparation of plain, substantial, every-day foods, for all occasions. The only baking powder made from Royal Grape Cream of Tartar No Alum No Lima Phosphates PRAY. Don't fear the world will laugh if you pray. Don't care if it does. Let it have its way. Remember the softness and beauty it brings When round you enfolding its comforting wings It carries you out of the dark and the care To the thoughts of a happier life somewhere. Don't be afraid if they scoff and scorn At the thought of your praying. It leads to the morn Through a sleep so refreshing, a rest so divine, Like a path in the summer beneath bloom and vine, Ending down in a garden somewhere that doth seem In a dusk of old magic that drifts through a dream. Don't mind and don't worry, whatever they say. Kneel down or stand up, but stop talking and pray. Don't be a coward to cringe at the word Of the cynics w hose voices in taunting are heard Wherever men gather; remember how sweet The peace after prayer, like the rain after heat ! Don't let the world turn your purpose aside From the prayer that flows in on the tumult and tide Of strife and of worry, but let it prevail Over all that may tempt you, attack and assail; Remember its gentle and mellowing spirit When you pray with a faith in the One that will hear it ! THE CRUCIBLE OF LIFE. Sunshine and shadow, blue sky and gray, Laughter and tears, as we uread on our way; Hearts that are heavy, then hearts that are light. Eyes that are misty and eyes that are bright; Losses and gains in the heat of the strife, Each in proportion to round out this life. Into the crucible stirred by the years Go all our hopes and misgivings and fears; Glad days and sad days, our pleasures and pains. Worries and comforts, our losses and gains, Out of the crucible shall there not come Joy undehled when we pour off the scum. Out of our sadness and anguish and woe. Out of the travail and burdens we know. Out of the shadow that darkens the way, Out of the failure that tries us today Have you a doubt that contentment will come When you've purified life and discarded the scum ? Tinctured with sorrow and flavored with sighs, Moistened with tears that have down from your eyes, Perfumed with sweetness of loves that have died, Leavened with failures, with grief sanctified, Sacred and sweet is the joy that must come From the furnace of life when you've poured off the scum.

Twtatr-Svt ctata a boiuc A LESSON FOR YOU. ! Nothing; Lett To Live For. Why did Mile Laiuelme die? The question vexed the gay world of Paris a few weeks ago when the beautiful actress deliber aielv walked over the side of the yacht and was drowned. From a worldly point of view she had everything she could de sire. Laiuelme was a famous beauty, a successful actress and the wile of a millionaire. Her fine house was in the most aristocratic section. She had splendid iewels, horses, automobiles, a steam yacht. Now, it was Jsked Why should a woman who had everything her heart could desire throw away her life? Is such a thing conceivable? Yes. To have everything you want is not M make you happy. This woman had nothing left to desire. And to desire is human. So long as we desire and strive we live. When there is nothing more to ! desire or strive for we die Alexander sighed for more worlds to conquer. We are like Alexander. There I can be no zest in life without the chance to conquer. Alexander ' sighed because all the sparkle was taken out of life. When we have everything we want life is Hat, stale and unprofi table. When the incentive of to morrow's struggle is gone tomor row is gone. Fullness is satiety. Mile. Lantelme, whose youth and talents had smoothed the way for ! her feet From girlhood, had sound ed every note in the gamut of pleasure. There was nothing left to live ! for. On the other hand, there was this : Weariness and vexation ot spirit, the vanity of luxury, the tire of dissipation, fear of the loss of fame or beauty. Do you see ? You may say truly. "What pleasure this woman might have found in doing good !" But her life was not keyed to benevolence. She was shut up to selfish enjoy ments. When these palled upon her she was eager to throw' her life away. And you? Do you envy the idle rich ? Do you not see when fortune leaves nothing to be desired life is intoler able? What you call the bitter-. ncss of strife and anxiety is the ; real source of your life's sweet ness. WORDS AND WORK "Brudren," a darkey in a prayer meeting, "I feel's ef I could talk mo' goou in five minutes dan 1 could do in a year." WORDS OF WISDOM. When you have an elephant on hand, and he wants to run away, better let him run. Lin coln. DOMESTIC ECONOMY. Doctor It's twins. Proudpop And yet they say two can live cheaper than one. -Puck. The worst luck a woman can have is to be rescued from a fire when all her best things are in wash. j Great expectations often great disappointments. breed It s a pity we can t convert wild oats into breakfast food. our The hardest ihing that can be said about any man is "he is ea sy." A man can avoid a lot of explain ing by keeping his face closed. A woman's idea of a miser is another woman who refuses to tell a secret. A man doesn't always get is coming to him when the man calls. what post- lf you think growing better, partly to blame. the world isn't perhaps you are The man with an impediment in his speech seldom speaks well of anybody. About the only way you can cul tivate some men's acquaintance is by irrigation. But ihe innocent bystander sel. dom knows enough to be other wise and elsewhere. Give The Children Freedom. To be lied loo closely to moth er's apron string may prove dis astrous to a child. It depends upon the mother and upon the length and substance of the strings. Surely a mother must hold her children to herself by the bonds of alfection else they may stray far. But she mustn't lie them loo close ly. She must give them rope. The apron strings should he long enough and they should stretch enough so that the children will not feel the constant tension of mother's hold on them. Give the children freedom. If a child does not enjoy rational freedom it can never grow into strength of character. It must learn to choose and to decide tor itself. It must learn to act inde pendently and ti lake the conse quence of its aciion. Loosen ihe strings. The child that feels the apron strings drawn taut and fast must lead a narrow existence. It ought to learn w isdom by experience.and no matter how wise mother is she cannot substitute her own wisdom. Individuality is a great force, and individuality is built up by the in dividual who is forced to think and act himself.-- As much as possible let the child do for himself. Ever see bear cubs at play? The mother you may be sure is not far away. She keeps an eye on the cubs, all right, but she does not let them see that she is watch ing. Her apron strings are long and expansive. The cubs gambol and wrestle and tumble. Even when they fight the mother appar ently pays no attention. But- Whtn there is danger or a real necessity the mother bear quickly rounds up her children. Wise bear ! Let the children plav and wres tle and get dirty. And even should ! they light do not interfere loo j quickly. In case of real necessity the child will come to the mother 1 the betier way. Mother's apron strings should : be of a rubber-like material. And when there is a real need there should be no sudden jerk, only a gentle, wise pulling in. ' FOUND HER ALOmHaT LAST. ! Arbuthnot Witheredjte Finally Finds Opportunity to Speak to Miss (ienevieve (irnndilot "Well," said Arbuthnot' Wiih eredge, I am in luck to find you alone, this evening. "Oh," replied Genevieve Grand ilot. Do you consider it lucky to be alone with me?" "Why shouldn't 1 ?" "I I don't know, 1 have never thought about it before." "Haven't you ever wished that you and I might be all alone to gether?" "Why should I wish that ?" "I don't know, I wish you had wished it." "Have you ever wished it " A great many times." "Why?" "Perhaps I could could guess." "Would you care if I should tell you why ?" "1-1 don't know. Do you think 1 ought to let you tell me why?" "1 wish you would. I am going to tell you. It is because "Because what ?" "I wonder if you will hate me ! alter I have told you? Rather than you decide that we can no longer be friends, I would carry the secret to my grave " "Oh, please don't do anything like that. 1 am s'ure 1 shall not haie you I could never h:ite yon, no matter what happened." "Do you mean that, Miss Grandilot Genevieve .-' "Of course. Why shouldn't I?" "I shall risk all, then, and tell you, I have wanted to De aione with you because because I love you because I have wanted to ask you to be mire !" Then the beautiful girl's mother stole away from her place behind the curtain and tiptoed up the back stairs. Every dog has his day and too many of them have their nights also.
