The Gifted Kcmbles.

The Kembles covered five generations
of actors. the most gifted family in that
profession that the world has seen. But
the dramatic gifts do not come from the
Kemble side of the house, but from the
female line Roger Kemble was not an
actor when he married the beautiful and
accomplished daughter of an actor named
Ward. but hairdresser. Under his
wifes tuition and with her companion
ship he developed into fair actor, how
ever. Twelve children were born to the
couple. The oldest and most gifted of
all was Mrs. Siddons The dramatic
power of the Kcmbles thus came through
their mother, and the greatest of them
was also woman, The genius shines
conspicuous on the female side through
out. If Mrs. Siddons was the greatest
of the Kembles, the next greatest was
her niece, Fanny Kemble, who died ct
the beginning of this year.

Many young men of today are in doubt
as to the divinity of Christ, and their
doubts are strengthened by the belief
that the leaders of men disregard the
claims of the NaZarene as being the
Son of God. A case in point is related
by DenGer's Young Men of a young man
in that city who, possessed with such
doubts. visited his pastor and confessed
to affirm his belief in His divinity, what
would you Think" Il should believe
in il" was the reply. A request was
sent by the pastor for the great states
mans testimony; and it came back
promptly in these strong, positive
words:
"All write, and all think, and all |
hope is based upon the divinity of our
Lord the one central hope of our poor,
hayward race. w. +. GLADSTONE. +"
1t will be remembered that two or
three years ago DR.. Talmage spent an
afternoon with Mr.. Gladstone at Hawar-
den Castle. In the course of CONVEX
sation on political and religious ques-
tons Mr.. Gladstone is reported to have
said: Talk about questions of the day.
There is but one question and that is
the gospel 1t can and will correct
everything needing correction. All men

A Prnotical Glove NTender.

AS gloves have the faculty of calling
upon the aid Of thread and needle more
frequently than any other article of wo-
mans apparel, a practical glove member

At different parts Of this ring sew pieces
of narrow ribbon. Let them hang down
a short distance from the ring. To the
first one attach pair of silver topped
scissors, to the next any odd shaped silk

CRIME ON THE INCREASE.

There are those who talk of this world
becoming better and better until finally
the millennium-the thousand years of
peace-is ushered in. Strange to say,
statistics, as well as the plain teaching
of the Word of God, is against this
theory. For example:
Judge l. c. Parker, of the United
States District Court at Fort Smith,
Ark, in recent charge to the grand
jury urged that they make u searching
Investigation for crime, and called at
tention to the increase of ii in this coun-
try. He said: In 1880, the known MUIR
ders in the United States was 1868; in
1890, 1920; in 1891, 5908; in 1892 SOL.
This is an alarming increase in coun-
try that boasts OF its intelligence, its in
Vulnerable churches and free schools.
Judge Parker says the fault lies in the
laxity Of our laws; there is too much in
difference, too much sympathy, too
much influence and too much Doodle.
In 1892 there were but l07 legal execu-
tons against the 6,791 murders, while
the number of lynchings reached 236, n
marked increase in mob law. There
must be more hard work among the
officers, the judges and the jurors. Too
many murderers are free today"
This statement of the rapid increase
in crime in our land is worthy of care

We should love with lifetime love in an hour
If the hours were few;
We should rest not for dream but for fresh

We should guide our hayward or wcaried wills
by the clearcst light:
We should keep our eyes on the heavenly nils
If they lay in sight
We should trample the pride and the discomfort
Beneath our feet:
We should take whatever good God sent
With a trust complete.
We should waste no moments in weak regret
If the day were but one:

Went out with the sun,
We should be from our clamorouS selves set free

TWO NEEDED REQUIREMENTS.

ID. l.. Moody recently made use of the
following words in an address at the
opening of a series,of evahgelistic meet
ing emphasizing the need of more
consecrated, prayerfri) lives on the part
of protesting Christians:
Il want to speak to Christians. For
tie present ! am more concerned about
Il ~ than about the unsaved.. think
or the saddest things. Of the day is
the low condition of the Christian
church. Many give up self but little.
1t is sometimes difficult to draw the line
of distinction between members of the
church and those of the world. If the
church of God were on fire there would
be no need of special meetings and
evangelists.
Many persons prayers do not go
higher than their heads. They think
he hce Ems. are made of BRASS that
.e7e'is no ui3c' p..ving, and are about
7,eady to give it up. ','.Hy is this? ,Itis
because they do not con. ply win the
requirements. SO if our prayers are
mot answered, we should look well into
the reason, and see what is the matter
with ourselves"

BANGS AND BANGS.
Now Adopted by the Foot Ball Enthu-

Now Adopted by the Foot Ball Enthu-
siasts as a Protection for the Head.
From Harrer's Bazaar
Some fifteen years ago fashionable young
women were covering their foreheads with
a fringe of straight hair which hung so
low as to nearly hide the brightness of
their eyes. This was the first appearance
In public of the bang, and it has evidently
come to stay. But as nothing is tolerated
by fashion very long, the straight bang was
relegated in few years to the daughters
Of Erin, while their mistresses wore fringes
which were curled or frizZed. This fashion
reigned for some time but it in turn has
been succeeded by the present Madonna
like mode of hair dressing, which leaves
the existence of foreheads ii matter Of GER
tainty rather than of cor lecture.
But the old-fashioned straight bang is
on the head of the college man. There the
bang may be seen in it's first and undimin-
ished estate. 1t is especially in evidence
on the foot bali field, and it Is said to save
the players heads from many hard blow.
So seemingly, there was always a method
IN its wanderings, and 1t was meant from
the beginning to arrive at point where a
special mission was to be fulfilled.
In the present gentle stage of the foot
ball game a mass of flowing locks is said to
AFFORD sufficient prot action to the skull of
the college man. But as the game seems
W De cEOlNlnS tOW1TO something more RlO-
rious and dangerous than the game of to-
day, 1t Is safe to presume that helmets will
soon be added to the foot ball armor. Then
bangs will have fulfilled their mission, and
may start on their onward way once more.
Perhaps by that time the college girl will
be ready to assume them She Is the only
member of society who has been free from
the light touch of bangs. But as their pro-
gress Is as sure as 1t is slow, even she may
have to adopt them before long. The pos
sibility opens up an interesting field for con-
lecture.
If the college girl takes her brothers dis
carded bang, it will not be for the purpose
of adjoining herself Herewith. She must
have hygienic or other equally good rea-
son for wearing one before she will so far
depart from her ancient principles as to
barg her hair. 1t is barely possible that
she Will do so from a desire to place her
self on an equality with college men. She
has assumed her brothers sailor hat, four
finland and waist coat Or else, in her
self-sacrificing desire to raise the standard
Of womens colleges as high as that of
mems she may consent TO play a modified
sort OF foot ball game, and in this case she
will certainly have to be protected by a
bang. But this is all conjectural, and for
the present at least the college boy monop-
olizes the straight, long. old-fashioned
fringe. 1t may, before long, bring him 10
a point of wearing a veil; for without a
veil. as girls all know, bangs cannot be
kept in order.
