Masonry in Holland has its strik-
ing peculiarities. For instance, the
Worshipful Master once elected gen
orally retains his Office until bis
death. The officers of the Lodge
are elected for periods of from one
to three years, as the by laws deter.
mine, and they may be reelected.
The Master Mason's degree is not
conferred earlier than year after
taking the degree of Fellow Craft,
except by dispensation, and the Eel
low Craft cannot apply for the de.
gree, which is only given after res
olution of the Master Masons of his
lodge, ut such time as they consid
or him worthy to receive. No fees
are charged for the degree.--Ex.

1t is Thought by Many

when the Creator said to woman
"in sorrow shalt thou bring forth
children" that a curse was pro.
nounced, but the Joy felt by every
Mother when she first presses to
her heart her babe, proves the
contrary.
Danger and suffering 1url1 In
the pathway of the Dxpectant

that she may reach the hour
when the hope of her heart is to
be realized, In full uigor and
