chrl.tian Enaeaxor on the Ocean.

Probably some members OF the Chris
tian Endeavor society are unaware how
large number Of members are sailors,
who have the privilege Of participating
III meetings of the society at home.
There are now nearly 300 such mem
beers, and there is no doubt that the num-
Der viii grow. A convert sailor re-
turning to his ship needs the assistance
the Christian Endeavor society gives
even more than the convert on Ian
who has his church and fellow members
to give him strength. Christian work
ers who labor among sailors in our sea
port towns will do we'll 10 recollect the
fact aud suggest to the newly converted
sailor the value of a membership in the
society.
The pledge is the Christian Bndeavor
active membership pledge, with the in
sertion Of clause relating to pure liv-
ing. total abstinence and nonprofanity,
having coupon" for name, ship, and
permanent address to detach and keep
ON file, while the pledge is placed in the
sailors Bible. A signer becomes
''member at large" but can join So
eiety whenever practicable.
Among the testimonials received from
these sailor members are the following,
which are really pathetic in .the appre-
citation of the value of the society:
'sThe lifeboat and crew of Christian En-
deavor rescued me from the wreck, says
one. Il was an old hulk. drifting, when
Christian Endeavor rescued me, writes
another christian Endeavor rescued
me when / was fast going in the down
ward road" is one grateful testimony.
81 lost my pledge (card) and pin, - writes
a shipwrecked member. but my promise
l will keep in my heart so it will never
be lost Il have always been very
selfish" is another confession, but find

A STOLEN DOLL.

Whore Little Jeans Mamma Found the
Last Sundays Dinner.
Jean always had the queercst doll
You ever saw. There was Tom. whose
head was big hickory nut stuck on a
stick John, who was once q little pine
burr; Sallie. whose green face showed
her to have been a small watermelon;
and her twin sister. Susy, whose yellow
face proved her TO have grown as a
little yellow squash. Besides these.
there was red-headed Teddy. the
bright plaid shawl, whose red fringe
answered for hair; Chloe, the brown
cloak; and Chibbie dearest, the yellow
one.
Yet Jean wanted more She dressed
mp ToddlelSins. the cat. and Bright
eyes, the dog; but they hated clothes,
and would not lie in cradle Then
she tried Biddy the hen; but she
peelSed and squawked.
Jean was looking for a new child,
when one Saturday night her papa
brought home a large turkey, ready %
be cooked the next day In the morn.
ing mamma and papa went TO church,
leaving Jean with the servant girl,
who soon strayed off to speak TO the
next-door girl.
Jean at once ran downstairs. took
the turkey from the cellar, and tugged
it up the stairs to her room. She
opened her bureau drawer and threw
everything out, hunting for a dress for
her turkey child. Her best new red
silk frock was just the thing, SO over
the turkeys head She put it, pulled the
two legs through the sleeves, and there
was the baby all dressed.
Then She sat and rocked It, forget
ting everything in her joy at having a
big new doll.
When her father and mother returned
they found Katie hunting everywhere
for the turkey to cook. Up and down
they looked but at last decided that il
had been stolen. Mamma went up
stairs to take off her bonnet, when
what should she see but Jean in her
little rocker, with the turkey held
closely to her. while All around were
the other dolls Then Jean had to
give up her baby to be cooked for din
ner. Wasn't that sad?- Hal Harring.

THE BOY PAPA SAW.
1t Was Neither Money Nor Bicycle THAT
Made Him Happy.


Made Him Happy.
Guess who was the happiest child

own two little boys on his knees.
"Oh, who, papa?
''But you must guess.
Well, said Jim. slowly. "Iguess Il
was a very wieh little boy, wifi lots and
lots Of tandy and takes
"No, said papa, "he wasn't rich; he
had no candy and no cakes. What do
you guess, Joe?"
81 guess he was a pretty big boy, "
said Joe, who was always wishing he
wasn't such little boy, 'and | guess
he was riding big, high bicycle"
''No, said papa, The wasn't big; and,
Of course, he wasn't riding bicycle.
You have lost your guesses, so III have
TO tell you. There was flock of sheep
crossing the city to-day; and they must
have come long way, so dusty. and
tired, and thirsty were they. The
drover took them mp, bleating and
lolling out their tongues, to the great
pump in Hampton court, to water them;
but one poor old eve was too tired to
get to the trough, and fell down on the
hot, dusty stones.
'.Then | saw my little man, ragged
and dirty and tousled, spring out from
the crowd of urchins who We're watch
ing the drove, fill his old, leaky felt
hat. which must have belonged to his
grandfather. and carry it one, two.
three, oh, as many as six times to the
poor, suffering animal, until the crea-
ture was able to get up and go ON with
the rest"
did the sheep say: 'Tankyour papa?"
asked Jim, gravely.
Il didn't hear it" answered papa.
But the little boys face was shining
like the sun. and I'm sure he knows
what blessed thing it is TO help what
needs helping. -Christian Observer

A pretty method Of indicating the
places assigned TO guests at banquet
was illustrated at q garden party re-
Gently which ended ia dinner, 10 which
most of the guests remained. Small ia
bleS were used TO seat the guests, and
each was decorated with d different

sweet peas and naSturtiums, yellow

gaudy tints were used. To each lady

For the Sweeping of Sidewalks.

The battle royal which RACES just now
in our mOdish world is the to be or not
10 be Of the trained skirt. Worth and
his disciples condemn the long skirt,
and declare it to be already bad form
for street wear. But women are loath
10 curtail their sweeping gown, well
knowing that in the slOping breadtns
shere is Infinite grace and dignity difi-
cult OF attainment in the more practical
short skirts.
The most satisfactory solution OF the
souation in the present uncertain state
of affairs is 10 choose for street wear
skirt gracefully sloped TO the figure,
but with the trailing inches rounded OIL
in such a way that though the skirt
does not touch the floor IL has the ap-
pearance OF so doing. As recOmpenSe
for this sacrifice OF vanity TO good sense,
let yoar calling gowns and carriage
gowns sweep TO the length Of forty-four
inches in the back, rounding gracefully
70 the proper length for walking in
front. Dinner aud reception gowns
may be longer still, but for balls, il you
are fend OF the may dance, the short
skirt Is again the choice preferred for
obvious reasons. You may be willing
TO bear the Inconvenience OF the long
skirt, which adds to your inches II you
are short, TO your slenderneSs II you are
stout, and 20 your grace il you are tall,
but it IS scarcely courteous TO intiict the
nuisance upon all the other dancers In
the room.
