not agree with me. The foundation doe
trines, rs hold them, are II personal God.
Creator and rulef over all things; the
human family universally sinful; the need

Christ, the manifestation of God in human
conditions; His office in redemption
supreme. | do not believe in the Calvin
istic form Of stating the atonement. | do
not believe in the fall Of tho human race in
Adam, and, of course, | do not hold that
Christs work was to satisfy the law broken
by Adam forall his posterity. The race was
lost, but has been ascending steadily from
creation. l am in hearty accord with no.

educating forces Of the church, and in

several ways seek TO build up men into the
Image of Jesus Christ by whose faithful
ness, generosity and love hope to he saved

The Isarbaric Contour of the waist,

A fashion writer says The waist, alas,
is being compressed back to the barbaric
contour which led the poet of 1871 to
write:
shepherds, have lost my waist
Have you seen my bodyY
Sacrificed to modern taste,
I'm quite n hoddy-doddy.
For fashion that part forsook
Where sages place the belly;
lis gone and have not II nook
For cheese, cake, tart or Jelly.
Never shall see 1t more
III, common sense returning,
My body 10 my legs restore,
Then shall cease from mourning.
Folly and fashion do prevail
10 such extremes among the fair,
,woman,s only top and tail
The body's banished, God knows where

then came out to eXtinguish the
flames and, while so engaged, was

wife ran to assist him and was shot in the
shoulder. Before he died Ginther told
his wife to get the children out of the
house, which she did, hiding them and
herself in the brush until the Indians
had gone. Hidden by the darkness
and carrying her infant in her arms and
leading another child by the hand, her
four other children following rs best they
could, Mrs. Ginther wandered all night
through thesage brush barefooted and in
hernight-cIothes. Finally near morning she
reached neighbours house ut Wooley's
