THE ANGER OF THE LoRD.-God's
anger is holy. 1t is not unkind. 1t does
not arise from any defect of love. 1t is
the feeling in view of wrong doing which
a holy being ought to have. 1t is right
1t is feeling which exactly suits the
fact. 1t is a feeling which relates to the
sinner as well as to his sin. Sin is un-
reasonable. 1t is immeasurably injuri-
Gus. Sin, if it is sin at ALL is utterly in
exeusable. Justice abhors it. Love
loathes it. Mercy itself burns with in.
finite anger towards it. The wrath of
the Lamb " is the holy anger of spurned
mercy. One who can look on and see
fendish crime committed, and not feel
fierce anger burning in his heart, has
not good heart. 1t is either dead and
blind, or else bad Holy anger is not
revenge 1t has in it no touch of selfish
ness. 1t is rather the indignation of be-
nevolence at that which does harm.-

Dry BREAD-In letter to The Dali
ly Graphic we find these sensible words;
am convinced, after quite extensive
examination of the subject that most of
the disease and weakness of children is
directly due to over-feeding, and UNDER
stand that over-feeding consists, not in
eating any large quantities but in eating
any quantity when the stomach does not
really crave food.
have heard one mother reprove an
other and charge her with hardness be-
cause she never allowed her children
anything between meals but dry bread.
Many women who pamper the hesqueamish
appetites of their children at all hours
with cakes and pastry and preserved fruits
would take the same ground, yet not one
child in hundred so pampered is robust
10 health, and l am throughly convinced
that the most prolific cause of the deli
cate health and constant attacks of i'll
ness in children is that their digestive
functions are never allowed to grow
strong through the stimulus of hunger.
Any child who really needs food viii
eat good bread with pleasure, and yet
never enough of it to spoil the appetite
for his regular meals.

THE LUXURY OF HOME Travel is
pleasant The change of air and the
change of scene are beneficial alike to
body and mind. 1t is pleasant to meet
so many agreeable people, and it is de-
lightfui to look upon the varying and
often beautiful scenery.
Travel is instructive. 1t suggests new
ideas, and gives one knowledge of the
world to be acquired in no other way.
But after all there is nothing else SO

pendence and the luxury of ones own
home at last. Travel is pleasant, but
