Now Pay Your Annual Dues.

From the Christian Union.
''If all our members would do as you do
pay their membership fee at the very beginning
of the year, how much better it would be for
our society in every way!' This remark made
by the treasurer of large charitable organi-
cation to a lady paying her annual fee at the
beginning Of the year, and without solicitation
is one to be brought home to the members of
all the organizations of our country based on
fee membership.
Within three months / have heard COM
plants from officers of several societies. whose
year began in January. of the neglect of men,
bers in this respect; members who were fully
failed to do so simply through thoughtlessness.
ut is delicate thing" said one secretary Ito
dun such. but We need the money, and what
else can we do?''
Now, all this anxiety could be avoided. and
the various organizations be placed on
much better business basis, if all men and
women would make it a point to renew
fees at the annual meetings of the socie-
ties TO which they belong. If this can
not be done personally by attendance at the
meetings, let the sum be forwarded to the
treasurer at that time. Courtesy to the Off
GERS, who freely give much time and talent
to do the legitimate work the societies require,
demands as much as this. Then a prompt. un-
solicited payment carries with it good. en-
couraging wish, better than any mere word Of
IL,
ever, kind note expressing desire for the sue
cess OF the society accompanies the fee, help
| full chord 10 struck which cannot be lost.
This matter Of paying or not paying on time
| like many another thing small in itself, becomes
habit, one to be carefully looked into by all
especially by the young, or by those Just enter
| ing charitable or public life. Parents, guar
dams or teachers should make this an import
ant matter in the education of those under
| their care.
This subject could easily be broadened to
| include the prompt payment of all debts as
well as fees. The cultivation Of this habit
is greatly needed, not only among the poorer
| classes, but among the rich, among even
church members themselves. For It is no
secret how delinquent many an active
| church member il as regards the PAYMENT
| Of his pew-rent. Many q church would better
know its financial condition to-day il ali its
members were awake to their duty in the
direction of its business interests. SPay what
thou owest" is "a divine an injunction TODAY
as it ever was. "Pay promptly what thou
owest' Is the great message Of this age 70 help
simplify the grave compile xities which abound
II all would live up TO this principle, business
| Of every kind would be on q drmer Foundation
and life would have less friction; indeed.
better results would follow every way.

Rearing Babies in Arabia.

From the New YORK Telegram.
A royal baby's first toilet in Arabia, consists
in winding bandage about its body after it
has been bathed and perfumed. The little
creature is then placed ON its back, its arms
and feet are Strengthened, and the entire body
Is swathed to the shoulders. In this position
it remains motionless for forty days, but the
bandages are removed twice q day that the
child may have bath. The Arabs believe that
this process will make the body straight for
life. Under such circumstances il seems fortu-
nate that babyhood is not a period which can
be remembered in after years, for nobody
would choose to suffer such DAYS of misery
again, even in recollection. II the child be q
girl, on the seventh day after her birth holes,
usually six in number, are pricked in her ears,
and when she Is two months old heavy gold
rings are attached to them, to be worn through
out her lifetime. except during periods Of
mourning fpr relatives.
On the fourth day the baby's head is shaved.
This operation is considered a very important
one, and thirty or forty persons are witnesses
of it, for the performance of certain rites This
disposal Of the first hair is regarded as q very
weighty matter; IL must not be burned nor
into the sea, or hidden in some crevice of
wall. This fortieth day marks turning point
in the child's life. Heretofore it has only been
seen by its parents, the slaves on duty and q
few intimate friends Of the family; now, how
ever, IL may be seen by anybody and Is re-
garded a. fairly launched on the tide Of exist
ence. Several charms are attached to its body
for protection against the sevil eye," BOYS
wearing them to certain age and girls still
longer The favorite charm consists Of gold
or silver locket, worn on chain.
