Home-Made Precepts.

Purely for my own benefit | have
originated the following precepts which
l recommend to women who, like myself,
are mot so young as they used to be-"
whose birthdays are crowding each other,
but who are not actually old-oh no. only
verging upon that dreaded state
Do not fret. If you do an imprint will
be left upon your face that you will not
like when you look in the glass.
Do not brood over your troubles but
cast them aside all you possibly can.
Get as much sleep as possible and do
not be afraid to lie down in the middle of
the day, even if somebody does declare
that it is lazy to do so. You can rest as
sured that it is true economy.
Do rot watch for gray hairs and
wrinkles and think too much about grow
ing old. Be determined that you always
will be young at heart.
Keep up interest in things; do not set
tie into some old rut and think you are
too old to try anything new.
Keep on learning something to the day
of your death. Your education was only
begun when you left the schcol-room, and
this world is full of opportunities of cult
ure. God gave women minds to use all
their lives, not merely for few years
when their intellects had not been devel-
oped by age and experience.
When burdens press hard think of some
one more unfortunate, and count up your
blessings.
Do not live for self alone; aim to help
the needy and deserving and study the
happiness of friends
Remember that the patient bearing and
overcoming Of little trials, day by day, is
more heroic and causes more growth of
character than some great deed that the
world admires-
What e'er your lot, have faith God is
good and we are all "The sheep of His
pasture"
These precepts are all beautifers and
tend to arrest the ravages of time. If
faithfully followed they will bring the
charm of the soul to the surface and it
will matter little whether cheeks be faded
or hairs gray, there will be presence that
is better than feshy beauty, and it will be
pa-ishable.-Amaf Hiida.

to say that the Bible prescrlbes no dogma
on the subject, what is it but usurpation,
at point where usurpation is an affront
to reason and religion, to add, but you are
not at liberty to find in the Scriptures any
dogma but the one which is no longer re-
quired. You may be an agnostic and you
may even entertain hope, provided it is
sufficiently vague and you cannot give
reason for it, and this because, having
abandoned the line of Biblical authority,

Give Water ta Infants.

A distinguished children's doctor be-
lieves, from his practice, that infants gen.
orally, whether brought up at the breast
or artiGGslly, are not sapf4ied with suf-
ficient water, the fluid portionof their food
being quickly taken up, and leaving the
solid too thsek to be easily digested. In
warm, dry weather, healthy babies will
take water every hour with advantage, and
itkeir frequent fretfulness and rise of tenn
perature are often directly due to their
not having it. A free supply Of water.
and restricting the frequency of nursing,
have been found at the nursery to be a
most efectual check in cases Of incipient
fever, diminished rate of mortality and
marked reduction in the number of gastric
and intestinal complaints being attributed
to this cause. In teeth-cutting water
soothes the gums, and frequently stops the
fretting and restlessneSs universal in chill
dren at this period.

Three miles east of Snohomish City
stands what is said to be the largest tree in
the State of Washington. 1t isa dead cedar,
which has been followed out by fire, the
top being of, so that the tree is only about
sixty feet high. A Seattle Press man,
who stepped inside of the tree through the
narrow opening left by the fire, made ten
three-foot PAGES from side to side. Inside
this large trunk is spacious room, in
which fifty people could crowd. About
the tree are traces of Indian encampments,
and it surely proved complete shelter
from the storms for very large bands Of
warriors. The tree is perhaps over one
hundred years old"

Not listening as ought;
And in spite ofevery wish
had this wicked thought:
I thought the "Lamson Carrier
Could put up rails, few,
And have small branch Office
Rugged up in every pew;
Seeing deacons pass the boxes
And hearing pennies ring,
thought that this invention
Might to our churches bring,
A saving in the service,
In confusion, and in noise,
And do away with deacons
As they have done with cash boys.

familiar from acquaintance long
