death was a great shock to his friends.

greatly OF late, but it is not known whether
they were considerable factor in causing
his death. The certificate has not yet been
filed with the Health Officer. In the trail

took a conspicuous part He went into
the field and spent weeks in the mountal rs
with the posses, and endured many hard
ships which undoubtedly impaireds his
health. He was quiet, uuassumi ng man,
and many employees of the compan who

quaintance. He leaves family, and had
lived in Alameda some five years, building

Sultana Neumier.

Sultana Neumier, who has just died
at her home in Lebanon, Syria, was
well known in this country. She landed
as an immigrant at Ellis island in the
spring of 1891. She was highly educat-
ed, speaking English and four other Ian
guages besides her native tongue, and
it was her intention to fit herself in this
country for Christian missionary work
among her own people i'll Syria She
soon began to give talks in various
churches ON the customs and habits of
eastern peoples, and many influential
church members in the eastern cities be-
came deeply interested in her. Though
she soon learned to love America, she
did not lose sight Of her original idea,
even after she married young gradu-
ate Of Harvard. Their decision to go to
Syria was fastened by her i'll health.
They sailed last fall, but it was too
late, and the news Of her death has just

Help Your Pastor.

Is it necessary to add that every
Christian should pray earnestly for the
pastor, should hold his honor dear and,
if possible, should defend him faithfully
when adversely criticised? One word
more-hclp your pastor when you are
sure that he has made some mistake, not
by condemning him in your family or
before others, but by going straight to
him for frank, brotherly, prayerful
talk. Whether you part on terms Of en-
tire agreement or not, you will separate

Women as violet Gardeners.

The woman in business will find
nothing more agreeable or remunera-
tive than violet farming, according to
the word Of man of wide experience
in the business world. AS a matter OF
fact, tins line Of work is being widely
taken up by women and with unwonted
success With the building of the hot
house, the services Of an experienced
gardener the first year and the means
and ability to patiently await the initial
crop, monetary responsibility, at least,
is about at an end. for after the first
coming the violots increase thereafter
hundredfold with very little care and a
temperature of only go degrees, and
there is always a grasping demand for
them.
The most desirable, because the most
natural and lasting, violet perfume OF
today is that of an importing Partisan
house on the Place de la Madeleine. A
few drops Of this delicious odor suggests
the very essence Of whole bunch of
the gracious flowers, and yet it is well
known that this is wholly artificial
color. Not violet has been used in 1T.
So well guarded secret are the means
employed in its manufacture that this
house has become the envy of the world
Of perfumers. The demand for violet per-
fumes is SO much in excess of the supply
it is very difficult matter to obtain
the genuine article. Violet being the
most evanescent of odors, it is therefore
| the most costly. Nearly all of the
weaker mixtures, for instance the VIC
let waters, are composed almost entirely

woman's way of late is the candying OF
violets for the confectioner' trade. One
woman in New Jersey, who farms these
flowers successfully, can hardly keel

Comment by Rev. \. d. Doyle.
ToPic-The grace Of humility.-Mark *.
N'Bi; John xiii. l-l7.
Humility is one Of the distinctively
Christian graces II was held in little
esteem by the ancients and was by no
means characteristic of the ancient peo-
pie OF God, though, TO some extent, the
Old Testament did praise lowliness Of
heart and mind. Christ was the great
advocate of humility. By precept and by
example He taught His disciples that
they should be humble and lowly, even
as lie had emptied Himself of His glory
and majesty, and He did much to foster
and cultivate this spirit in His followers
and disciples.
Humility is not natural grace OF the
human heart. There are many him
ORANGES to its cultivation. This is exem-
plified IN the disciples of Christ II was
their pride and ambition and selfishness
that made it necessary for Him to so
solemnly instruct them upon this sub
ject by teaching that the least should be
greatest, and by washing their feet to
show that as He exercised this principle
OF lowliness they should follow His ex-
ample. The natural heart is proud and
selfish. We think more of self than Of
Others and just in proportion as we UNI
duly magnify self we disregard others.
The fact that these difficulties lie in the
way of humble spirit and life should
only stimulate us to increased efforts to
initiate Christ in this particular grace.
Humility is best cultivated and is
most likely to be cultivated if we have
the truest and highest motive to hu-
mility. There may be and are many
reasons for cultivating this grace, but
the supreme motive for humility, to the
Christian at least, is heart motive
the example Of Christ. After perform
ing the most mental act Of ancient du-
ties, the washing of others feet, He said
to the disciples, "If /, then, your Lord
and Master, have washed your feet, We
ought also TO wash one another's feet. "
This does not mean that we are to inn
itate the act Of Christ and literally
wash one another's feet, but that we
are to initiate the spirit implied in the
act. Christ is our Lord and Master. If
He was humble, we should be humble,
for the servant is not greater than his
Lord.
There is also reward for humility.
The humiliation Of Christ led to His
exaltation. This is still the law in the
spiritual world. He that is least shall
be the greatest. God hates the proud.
He eXalts the meek and lowly. He that
exalteth himself shall be abased, but hC
that humbleth himself shall be exalted

There are many signs that Germany,
of all countries the most conservative

the speeches given in full i'll the journal

ton. That the leaders of the move
ment are not lacking i'll practical sense

adopted for pleading with the members
of the reichstag in favor of more just

At another meeting i'll the same city,
Professor DIR. Med. Waldeyor, formerly
noted for his hostility to the woman
movement, acknowledged his conversion
and Sanitatsrat DIR. Kuster upheld the
