Making Room.

BY MRS. ELLA BEECHER CUTTINGS.
Jack and Charley sat on the kitchen
doorstep. in the shade OF the big will
low-tree. eating their morning lunch
of crisp soda-crackers. Jacks pet BAN
tams, forgetting for the time their inl'
portant little strut, scrambled so eager
iy after the crumbs that every now
and then the boys bare toes got Wig
orous peck from their greedy little
bills.
Little four-yea. old Matty, hearing
the boys laugh. wanted her share OF
the fun. She ran to the door, cracker
in hand, and said eagerly:
LET me sit there too ~
But Charley's blue flannel knees
were so wide apart that one OF them
touched Jacks grey jeans, and the
other lay against the door casing.
Against the opposite casing leaned
lacks head ana shoulder. So it hap
pened that Charley said hastily:
There isn't any room."
And in the same breath Jack said
Grossly:
"Of! 20 way, Matty, and find some
other place. It's too crowded with
you." .L
Matty put her little blue gingham
sleeve up to her eyes, and left trail OF
cracker crumbs across the kitchen
floor, as she ran to lay her curly head
on mammals lap, and sob out that the
bows hadn't any room for her to help
FEED the chickies. But in a minute
Charley's voice rang out in the kind
est of tones:
"Come on, Matty; here's room fol
YOU"
And Jack called also:
"Yes, plenty of room, right between
us.n
Matty brushed away her tears and
ran back to the kitchen door. Sure
enough, between the blue flannel anc
the grey Jeans there was room enough
for two such tile mites of girls as she
was.
"How did you happen to find room
so quickly" asked mamma, smiling
1--WE made it," said Charley, putting
his arm lovingly about Matty's shou!!
der's, and throwing out big crumt
for Mr.. and Mrs. Bantam to scramble
after.
Remember, dearies," said grand
ma from her corner, there's plenty o
room in this world for every kindly
deed, if only we choose to make it,"

1t is a mistake which we make, un'
consciously oftentime and yet amistake
when we separate our lives into secular
and religious parts. We can, of course,
use the terms for convenience sake
But the Christian has no right to real
ly divide up his life into such parts.
It is mischieveous in the extreme to
permit ones self to think that any
part-of course, in such case it is the
larger part-of his life is secular, and
hence removed from under the control
of religious considerations. The whole
life should be colsecrated. If man
undertakes to serve God at all, he
should serve God wholly. The Chris
tian should be religious at his work as
well as at his worship. TO carryon
ones daily calling in the spirit of the
gospel will oftentimes have more po-
tent effect for the good of others than
a great deal of religious talk. What
thcSworld needs to-day, perhaps more
than anything else, is religion carried
into the daily business, and that sane.
titled. The life of the Christian
must be of one texture all the way
through, in business as in devotion.
The golden thread of piety must run
through and benutify it all.-Chris-
tian Weekly.

Even as He is Pure.
BY LUCY LARCoM.

Thou who seest my soul within,
Thou who knowest my unknown SIN.
Through Thy holy eyes let me
Learn what sin Is unto Thee!
o my Saviour undefiled,
Leave Inc not by self begufled,
Blinded By my hearts deceit,
For Thy friendship all unmeet.
II there be in me thought
That Thy dear name hOnoreth not,
Pierce II with Thy plying gaze BE-"
Till Its silence turn to praise!
Make me, Pure One, as Thou art,
Pure In soul and mind and heart
Never satisfied with less .
Than Thy perfect holiness! ',
Bathing In Thy loves full stream,
Let my lie fultil lis dream,
Beautified with every grace
Shining OF me from Thy face. -
Lord, we all TO Thee belong,
Keep us faithful, pure and strong;
While wetreAd this earthly sod,
Give US hearts ut home with Godl

The prophecy of success F"r the Pro-
hibition party is in the fact that it was
not born of circumstance, but of prln-.
ciple, and therefore has Il ngular "
tality and persistency because OF the
depth of the soil in which we are
planted. The best cause will draw to
it the best men by.a law of gravita-
ton. But parties of principles are of
slower growth than parties born Of
circumstances.

draws very just distinction between

to please the latter, take care that he

It is not until we have passed
through the furnace that we are made

When you find yourself ovcrpower-

way is to 60 out and do something
kind to somebody.
