and ruling in the EARTH" There are
those who believe that there is no such
thing as business without dishonesty, and
that sensitive conscience cannot be
taken to the Office or the counting house.
1t should be the business of the Church of
the present and immediate future to show
that such notions are absolutely false, and
that the principles of the Sermon on the
Mount were meant for literal applica-
ton, for the guidance of men in all the
relations of life. She should teach men
that there is a better way of dealing with
each other than the old selfish, tyrannical,
get-as- much as you can method, that
Christ's law of love and self remuneration
can be applied to all the relations into
which men are brought with reference to
each other, and that with its universal APP
plication will come universal peace and
prosperity and happiness.
Sd. Finally, to be successful we need
to present an attractive gospel to the
world. By this do not mean gospel
intended to quiet the consciences of wick
ed men, not gospel which represents sin
as small thing, not gospel which is at
tractive in the sense that it makes men
feel secure in their wickedness; but Cos
pei which is attractive because it incul-
Gates the principles of forgiveness and
brotherly love, and mutual helpfulness, a
gospel which offers sympathy and com
fort to wounded and sorrowing hearts,
gospel which holds up a cructied Savior
before the eyes of a sin-poisoned, dying
world. Says Dr.. Lorimer, amy kind of
a gospel, however full of good tidings,
that is destitute of the heart of Christ,
bruised and crushed for a worlds re-
iemption, will in the long run fail to ac-
complish the mission of the church,
either in time or for eternity" The great
need of the present age-and that need
will be still greater in the coming age
of materialistic tendencies and great poll
teal, industrial and social agitations-s
that the Churches everywhere, and indi-
vidual Christians in particular, shall go
straight to lost, discontinued, struggling,
suffering men, with gospel of love and
forgiveness and divine tenderness, a Cos
pei that shall reveal the very heart of
Christ. If the years which are before us
are to witness an advance in the coming
of the Kingdom, we must bring the null
titudes in touch with such a gospel. Oh,
that men of God everywhere might dis
Germ the signs of the times, and seeing,
lay hold upon the priceless opportunities of
the hour.

Our blue-eyed daughter with locks of gold

When grass was srringing in balmy May;
The questions swiftly went round the class,
And soon came the turn of our little lass.

Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed in the Spring when the languid ex-
hausted feeling prevails, when the liver is
torpid and sluggish and the need of tonic
and Alternative is felt. A prompt use of this
medicine has often averted long and perhaps
fatal bilious fevers. No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and freeing
the system from the malarial poison. Head
ache, Indigestion, Constipation, Dizziness
yield to Electric Bitters. Only fifty cents
per bottle at A. A. Howes & Co.'S.

in white. indeed, the keynotes of the
spring fashions are black and white, so
many pretty white bodices are being
planned Of white satin, as when of good
quality it will clean perfectly, and speak
ing from experience l should state
that white satin will look clean quite as
long as pale green, pink. blue or buff.
black tailor jackets, the swellest of
which have lining of it. With such a
costume let me recommend jaunty little
black hat of The new braid, trimmed with
large white osprey at one side, and at the
back violets and three or four white gar
denias. Those who are more economical
can substitute black satin blouse waist
buttoned with tiny diamond buttons.
Such blouses must have collar or vest Of
the new black lisse with the white lace
applique.
A blouse which has caused many COM
plimentary remarks wherever worn is of
pale yellow chiffon anc lace. The outlines
are early Victorian. 1t is trimmed with
black velvet covered with an applique Of
creamy lace.
A simple little spring costume consists
of coat and skirt of petunia frieze cloth,
the skirt made with short full basque
and quantity cut revers. The waistcoatis Of
white face cloth, braided in gold, and fas-
tening down the center with tiny gold but
tons. Another, equally good, Is In hussar
blue face cloth. The short full basque is
very smart in appearance, and the full,
dropping shoulder pieces and straps across
the bodice from bust to waist give de-
cided touch of novelty. The vest is of
white cloth braided in a darker shade of
blue. The handsomest tailor dresses are
all beautified with the loveliest of jeweled
buttons which, by contrast, look especially
well On dark, rough surfaces, and the
smartest OF jackets are now making their
appearance.
One of the latest models is from rue de
la Paix, light Havana cloth, warm,
brilliant in tone, and SO becoming gener-
ally. The Jacket is longer than those we
are wearing and the basque does not rip
pie at all, lies merely in graceful ease. A
beaded passementerie of steel and jet cover
the seams. The sleeves are the usual gigot
coat model. The cachet of this garment
lies in the hood, for it is genuine
Trianon, such as the merry queen often
wore going to her toy palace. A Trianon
capuchin lies fat across the shoulders and
bust and then rolls up below very grace
fully with a spring that gives great width
across the shoulders and increases the
slenderness OF the waist. A large double
jeweed clasp fastens the hood at the bust,
and when fur with stole ends is worn the
ends are slipped under; with this is worn
very modish black cloth skirt.

The Little Thing Was . Beam Of Sun.
shine in That Dingy Streetcar.
On one of the cold, rainy days of the
past week Star reporter was on car on
the Pennsylvania avenue line coming
down Capitol Hill. There was a pretty
good load of passengers. 1t was cold, wet
and uncomfortable in side of the car, and
the rain beat tattoo on the windows
without that brought anything but pleas
ant reflections to the passengers who would
have to face it.
At the Peace monument there was big
reinforcement of passengers. They piled
in very uncerem oniously, bringing with
them a rush of cold air and scattering
showers of spray from their soaked gar
ments.
In the crowd which got aboard was a
woman with a baby in her arms. The
woman was rather poorly and thinly clad
and had no um mbrella. There was some
delay in her getting a seat and she looked
decidedly forlorn and helpless trying to
maintain her balance and at the same time
look out for her child.
But with all the environment calculated
to make men man and surly some one had
enough gallantry in spite of the weather to
offer her seat But mother and child got
many reproving look from the other pas
sengers. Those who were in an ugly mood
on account Of their unpleasant surround
ings found it very soothing to their rufhed
feeling to think, "WelI, there's bigger
fool than am" and one lady whispered
