have TO eat looks more eatable.
The wood of which your

when you come to covering
your table be as particular to
have a good, attractive table
linen as you are to have your

tells US she would rather have
"a fine linen table cloth, with a

an Indifferent cloth with a

to give a little romance-not
too much to eat, but what
there is of the best and you

 ARaIrs-F1delItyt to Duty-The Orphan
 Asylum Children.
 Yesterday was a delightful day for Decem- Der. The surIy blast and biting wind of the day previous was modified by a genial sun and a bright sky. The children from the orphan asylum were in their accustomed places. Dr. Munger preached from Romans IA, 12: ''So, then, every one of us shall give account of himself to God" Just before the sermon the congregation sang "Nearer my God to Thee" As this hymn was composed by lady it coincided very happily with the introductory part of the sermon.
 Dr. Munger said that some time ago he saw in the office of a merchant, facing the book keeper, the words of his text. It was in the handwriting of lady. Women do not trans act or manage the great financial duties of life, but they do wield vast influence in ele- vating and refining society. These words in such place were like 'Fwords ftly spoken" Apples of gold in pictures of silver" The sense of accountability is one of the deepest principles in human nature. It dees not wholly depend on revelation, although it fur nishes strong argument for the existence of deity. It is seen in savage life when the worshipper tries to propitiate some mysteri- ous power through sacrifice or self-torture, and how many there are who are apparently careless and indifferent in the light of day to whom the solemn stiffness of the night brings sorrow and remorse.
 Accountability is 8 natural principle. We judge and condemn ourselves. We blush, or we should do so. when we fall beneath our own standord. Self is often so relentless and exacting that we are driven to heaven for re- lief and forgiveness. In wider sense, it is the principle which holds society together. It requires fidelity to trust, and that implies that health, endowments and talents must contribute to the welfare of humanity As planets revolve with unerring certainty and uniformity. even 30 "wnatsoever 8 man sows that shall he also reap"
