THE KINGS DAUGHTER.

She wears no jewels upon hand or brow;
No badge by which sne may be known of men
| But. tho she walk in plain attire now,
she is daughter of the King and when
| Her Father calls her at his throne TO wait,
She Will be clothed as doth befit her state.
Her Father sent her in his land to dwell,
| Giving to her work that must be done;
ana since the King loves all his people WELL
Therefore, she too, cares for them, every one.
Thus when she stoops to lift from want and sin,
Inc brighter shines her royalty therein.
She walks erect through dangers manifold.
While many sink ana fall ON either hand;
She needs not summers heat nor winters cold,
For both are subject to the Kings command;
she need not be afraid of anything
because she is the daughter OF the King
Even when the angel comes that men call
| Death
| And name was terror-it appals not her:
she turns to look at him with quickened breath
Thinking, 1T is the royal messenger
Her heart rejoices that her Father calls
| Her back to live within the palace walls.
For tho the land she dwells in is most fair,
Set round with streams, like pictured in a
frame,
Yet often in her heart deep longings are
flFOr that imperial palace" whence she
came;
Not perfect quite seems any earthly thing,
Because-she is daughter of the King

We are the members of one great body.

fitted us for social life. We must consider

That there should be Christ, and that
| should be Christless; that there should
be cleansing, and that / should remain
foul that there should be a fathers love,
an! | should be an alien; that there should
be a heaven, and / should be cast into hell,
is grief embittered, sorrow aggravated

DR.. Schaf, in his last volume on the
German Reformation, has a long and
learned note in which he traces the orr
gin of the famous sentence, In necessariis
unitas; in non-necessariis libertas; in
utrisque caritas" in essentials, unity in
non-essentials, liberty; in both, charity, to
tract entitled "Parenesis Votiva," etc, of
the probable date of 1927, by Rupertus
Meldinius. Nobody seems to know who
Meldenius was, but he lodged sweet and
sound principle, well phrased, in the mind
of the world. And his fragrant concep-
ton has blessed multitudes who knew not
whom to thank for 1.-THE Congregation
