When fortune treats you slightingly
And everything goes wrong,
Remember that you still are free
To labor and be strong.
To him who bravely does his part
Misfortune is no crime,
Just hold your grip and keep up heart
And learn to bide your time.
The surest road to greatness lies
Through hard and patient work.
The glorious name that never dies
Comes not unto the shirk.
Fame sits upon an eminence,
A pinnacle sublime.
He who would win must seek her thence,
Strive on and bide his time.
The man OF hope and energy,
Who keeps one goal in sight,
Who goes his way with constancy,
win some time win the fight.
The man whose life glory lends
To every age and CLINE,
Is he whose purpose never bends,
Who works and bldes his lime.
Go onward DER the futures hills
The dawn falls cool and sweet.
Go onward. He can win who Wills
And bows not to defeat.
Go onward, though your path may lie
Through calumny and slime.
The way will brighten by and by,
Go on and bide your time.
And when the fight at last is DER,
The toll at last Ia done;
When standing on LIES farther shore,
Beneath her setting sun;
Beyond the futures uubarred gate,
The bells of heaven chime;
A nd Justice, love and glory wait
For him who bides his time.

for who of us does not know that
THE SPIRITUAL LIFE OF A CHURCH
cannot thrive unless the expenses Of the
church are met in an honest way? The
preacher cannot edify souls when the
bills are not paid. This is the question
for one who is connected with any
church to decide: Do I believe there
ought to be a church of this denomina-
ton here? Do believe that it fills 9
place? If do, then it is my privilege

1t is high time, my friends, that we got
over looking upon the contribution-box
as big joke. 1t is high time that we
thought of giving to the church as God
decreed that we should think of it, many
centuries ago: "Give unto the LORD the
glory due unto His name; bring an of
fering and come into his courts" 1t is
high time that we made of our giving
something as regular as the taking of
our food, as Paul in writing to the Chris
J tians of Corinth asked them to make it &:
Upon the first day of the week let
every one of you lay by him in store as
God hath prospered him." Giving is
thus an act of worship. | take the fol-
lowing from the report of the working
of the weekly offering system during
1897 in a neighboring church: The
number of children who share in the

parents will encourage this. Two of
our regular givers began when they
were less than year old. Several of

of these things, but every church is to try

any activity at all. There ia the training

there is the training of all the chill

the mischief. So in the human body
every part must work in harmony with
every other part, or the entire machinery
will be out of gear.
Aye, God needs cooperation in His
work. There are )me sphere Of action,
it is true, where Col works absolutely
alone. When He laid the beams of the
chambers of the earth, when He gave to
the sea its bounds and act Its limits that
it should not pass over, when in majes-
tic tone He spoke the one word "Light''
aud the flaming rays shot forth, in the
sublime works of creation God was
absolutely alone. And, too,
"Deep in unfathomable mines
With never-failing skill,
He treasures up His bright designs,
And works His sovereign WILL"
In the shaping of providence, in the
governing Of all forces to accomplish His
purposes, in the making even of the
wrath Of man to praise Him, God works
absolutely alone. But it is we'll worthy
of note that after there have been created
the light and the sea and the earth and
the beast of the field and the universe is

as If 81 wondrous a conception would
call out all the powers of the majestic
Godhead. have never puzzled myself
with the question whether God could
have carried out the scheme of re-
demption without enlisting the service Of
man, but know that He has not chosen
to work that way. He has given to our
poor, weak selves the preaching of His
gospel, He has given us the doing Of q
work the angels we'll might scovet. God
works through cooperation; ''feed My
lambs,' "give ye them to eat," ''preach
My gospel to every creature" $50! I
have chosen you and ordained you that
ye should bear fruit''-thes9 messages
He is constantly giving to US.
There is cooperation everywhere, and
il there is any place in the wide world
where this is needed more than in an
other, it is in the Church of God. 1t is
''the Church of the living God.'' 1t is q
living thing, and living things only stay
in healthy condition by doing some work.

one question, pre-eminent, which the
young pastor keeps asking himself from
the hour of his installation ia this, How

RACING TIPS
 AND OTHERS
Mrs. PrentisS Said to Have Played Horses and Lost Her
 Milliner Shop.
She Denies This Allegation and Makes Some Others to the COnfoundinq
 of Judicial Wisdom

JuLge Hebbard has under advisement case delicate and difficult enough to make wise jurist lie awake O nights. In the first place it is a quarrel be- tween women, so either way he decides he must incur the scorn of one of them which Is not pleasant thing to incur There Is understood to be no fury like 1t.
 Mrs. c. L. Prentiss Is a milliner and so is Miss Minnie German. once Mrs Prentiss had shop and now Miss German has the same shop. The chang ed condition is not satisfactory to Mrs. Prentiss, but Miss German, knowing the value of possession to be equal to nine points out of a possible ten, holds on grimly. To all efforts to have her busted, bounced, elected, set outside the door, she presents a determined front. Each contestant told her story yesterday. In some particulars these fail to agree.
 According to Mrs. Prentiss she had disposed of the business to Miss Cor man for a paltry S230, the transfer be- ing temporary. Later she had made a tender. of this sum and Miss German had declined to accept it or to permit the former owner to resume the digni- fled position she had abandoned. As she could not win the consent of Miss German to this arrangement, she put in claim to some furniture in the shop, the worth of the property being from 5000 to sl35, according to the es- inmates of the warning pair. To question, the witness replied that bets on racing had not caused her troubles.
 Miss German then took the stand and testified that the troubles of her ex- employer arose from a habit of play ing the races and a weakness for straight tips. She affirmed that the money which should have gone to pay for services rendered by millinery ar lists really went to the boOk-makers. She claimed that she had bought the shop in good faith and had put S1200 into improvements so that the idea of letting go was beyond all consideration. With no part of this testimony did that of Mrs. Prentiss agree, she denying that the straight tip had aught to do with the situation.
 With the affair elucidated only to this extent it was turned over to the Judge and the ladies departed. not how ever without an exchange of glances more chilly than the dawn of a frosty morning.
