Where Sight Is There Is, and There Can

There is wondrous meaning in those
New Testament teachings as concerns
what bridges over the chasm between
the present and the future. 1t must
needs be that the life which now is with
all its bodily environments should be
limited and should also be yelled. One
to whom beyond any man of his time
had been given visions of Christ, and
visions as well OF Immortality, is vet
heard most eNpressively to say: Here
we see through glass darkly''-"we
know in part and we prophesy in part
This was done under the apprehension
as he states it, that until the "pcrfect is
come'-the removal thereby Of all the
limitations which now hedge lis about
that which is only in part can never be
done away. Such in fact is the teach
ing OF the whole OF Scripture as re-
spects the life that now is as related to
the supplementary life which is to come,
So we have the words Of another than
Paul: Beloved, now are we the SON
OF God, and it doth not yet appear what
we shall be; but we know that when
he shall appear we shall be like Him.
for we shall see Him as He isl Here

ing OF the veil, it is seen that while we
know and comprehend largely thc
present, the future is held in reservo-
tion as to its full unfoldings and it's
perfect revelations. 1t is now through
a d'rkened glass we look, and so dis
Germ outlines and objects but dimly.
But time is coming when the SIGHT
OF the trusting soul shall be face to
lace. Vision. an open vision. shall
succeed to Faith.
That, indeed, is a deiinino Of Faith
OF most marvellous meaning, Wherein Il
IS declared to be "the substance of
things hoped for, and the evidence If
things not seen" Surely, if these
things could not be clearly discornaI

DRESS At THE WHITE HOUSE.


The Only Time When the Decollete Toilet
Has Not Been Popular.
While her husband was President
Mrs. Grant often wore Il low-necked
dress while receiving by gaslight. She
had a very plump, pretty, white neck,
and a decollete toilet was becoming to
her. Mrs. Bclknap, while her husband
was Secretary of War, Mrs. Robson,
while her husband was Secretary Of
the Navy, and Mrs. Williams, while
her husband was Acknowledgement,
usually wore low-necked dresses at
evening receptions held by the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Grant, whether they
were receiving with them or among
their guests. Last New Year Senator
Don Cameron's wife and General Sher-
mans youngest daughter-Miss Rachel
who came together and both of
whom had been invited by President
Arthur to receive with him, each wore
a low-necked dress, although the rccep-
ton began at eleven Il. M.
Within the recollection of the writer,
who has attended White House recep-
tons since 1868, the only period when
1ow-necked dresses We're wholly dis
couraged there was while Mrs.
Hayes was the presiding lady.
She never wore n or permitted any
one over whom She had any influence
to do so. Though she had young girls
constantly visiting her, only n of
them ever ventured to wear a decollete
gown while at She White House and
she did SO but once. Knowing Mrs.
Hayes dislike of dress made to show
the whole neck, ladies refrained, as a
rule, from wearing frocks made in that
way at the state dinner parties given by
the President and Mrs. Hayes, though
ordinarily that evidence Of being in
full dress is considered indispensable at
a formal dinner party. When Prcsi-
dent and Mrs. Grant gave on March 8,
1877, a state dinner t o their successors,
Mr.. and Mrs. Hayes, Mrs. Robson
(whose husband was then Secretary of
the Navy was the only lady present
in a low-necked gown, pains being
taken by Senator Sherman's wife, whose
guests the President-elect and Mrs.
HAYES were from their arrival in Wash
ington until they moved into the White
House, to tell the ladies asked to the
dinner of Mrs. Hayes prejudice against
decollete toilets. The latter lady
usually had the waists of her evening
dresses cut. V shape in front and filled

SO the hunger of the spiritual nature

susceptibility of the soul to the Faith
which ''reacheth within the veil' dics
out. The sad consequence Of all this
need not be indicated.
We often hear complaints of the lack
of faith rs to the invisible world, even
IN the part of protesting believers.
Such lack may come, and does come
frequently and largely, from ones en-
vironments, but more, it may be, from
ones subjective makeup and tempera-
ment. Payson's rapturous views Of the
spiritual world, described with such a
halo of glory, were not when, as during
much of his life, he "groaned in this
tabernacle being burdened," but rather
when the film Of sense was taken away
from the eye of the soul, and when like
the great apostle to the Gentiles, he had
put before him, in his conscious near
ness to Heaven, an open vision. 1t
were ever better for the believer to keep
steadily in mind that Scripture teach.
ing: 1--WE walk by Faith; not by Sight,
- by the faith of joys to come
We walk through deserts dark as night;
Till we arrive at Heaven our home.
Faith is our guide and Faith ourlight."
So while, as our distinguished departed
poet e%njoins, we are to 'trust no future.
howe'er pleasant" that is, rest in the
future for the supreme anchorage of the
soul, we prefer to accept what our own
living poet has set forth when he says:
"And so beside the silent sea
Iwait wit:i m1fflcd oar,
No harm from Him can come to me
On ocean or on shore.
81 know not where His islands lift
Their frondcd palms in air;
only know ] can not drift
Beyond His love and care"
Such faith as this is strong and clear as
vision. 1t places Heaven but a little
way off from earth, with but a narrow
thin veil between Watchnaan.

through her gold-rimmed glasses COM
posedly.
She felt, however, that this was an
important crisis.
When H~arvey-their only son-had,
with commendable independence, left
his pleasant home to get a start in
the ncighboring city, they had all ex-
pcctcd great things for him.
He would be rapidly successful; he
would distinguish himself in the pro-
fcssion he had chosen and amass a for

was his safe conquest of the beautiful

1t was not to be wondered at, there

eagerness; that Mr.. Seely fumbled with

Kitty came forward with a set face
