PRAYER for Perfect Trust.

Have mercy upon us,O God, in the hetempta-
tion Of our unsatistied desires and the per-
plexity Of Our disappointments. Teach US
the childlike faith in whose sim: cty Is
perfect rest. Thy purposes are larger than
our thought or hope; thy love denies as we'll
as gives. So help US to desire thy will and
trust thy love that each refusal may only
bring us revelation OF a wiser care:
Hear our petitions for all earthly good
according to thy wisdom, not our igno-
rant desire Let not the fuhllments Of earth
become the disappointments OF eternity nor
the pleasures OF today sources Of weakness
for tomorrow. Forgive us our weak striv-
ing, our impatient yieldings toseif-will, our
unresisted doubts and fears. Confirm In US
thy strength that when our time Of blessing
comes and thy love provides according to
our hearts desire We may be ready to make
the noDlest use OF every opportunity. So
keep cur hearts and minds in perfect peace
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

GODS MESSAGE TO MANI
PREGNANT THOUGHTS FROM THE
WORLDS GREATEST PROPHETS.

One Of the Blest-Man Alone Responsible
Seeing God Face to Tace-A Prayer
for Perfect Trust-Facing the Right
Way-Keeping Our Wings Unclogged>
Her face was beautiful with perfect calm,
Peace sealed the brow, and peace the ten
der mouth,
To wounded hearts her gentle gaze was
Her words like winds blown softly from
the South.
Her eye, Eye, were wells of lustre sweet and
Sometimes you felt they mirrored hidden
things
You might not read, but only feel the thrill
As II there flashed an angels passing
wings.
And on that face shone always white light,
A soft, transagured splendor, till you
thought
Only glory fallen from the height
OF heaven itself such lovely marvel
wrought.
Serene she went her way through grief and
strife,
Trouble was not trouble where her pres-
ence came,
She bore about with her a joy OF life,
Love burned within her breast fragrant
flame.
lou heard, while wondering how every loss
She carried lightly as u bird half-lit,
A gracious spirit say, There is no cross
Where no self is to suffer under 1t.
And you remembered that In ancient law
BY the broad GROW was the kings treo
known
Through the dark forest, and believed you
saw
The Lords broad arrow mark her as His
own.

The Record Would Disgrace Him.

The editor OF the Concordia Kansan tells
OF q temperance lecture given by Judge
Sturgis while deciding divorce case be-
fore him. The divorce was asked for by
the wife On the ground OF the husbands
habitual druukenness.
TIE objections raised by the defendant
was that the record OF the divorce would
disgrace him. To this the Judge replied
bv saying that all OF the court records or
possibly add to the disgrace already beaped
on the man by his own act of getting drunk.
Continuing, the Judge said: "He claims his
financial mistortunes have led him to ex-
cess OF drink. That Is no excuse for man
to get drunk. There Is no excuse for drunk
enness II treverses or troubles come,a man
needs his best judgment, his best vitality,
his brightest Intellect to cope with his mis-
fortune and to try to regain his lost ndvan-
tage. Why any man OF ordinary intellect
will place himself in such condition by
his own acts as to merit the contempt and
loathing OF his best friends and disgusting
his own wife and children, is something
do not understand. The drunken man ex-
cites the same feeling In the mind OF the
average person rs does u snake. We In
stinctively pounce onto q snake and Kill 1t
or else fee from 1t for fear OF contamina-
tiou. The person who voluntarily places
himself in the condition more loathsome
than snake, more disgusting than brute,
cannot be disgraced by the record OF this
court In this case. 1t was drunkenness
that brought about this condition Of things
In this family and 1t Is on these grounds

will be granted.
;. "This man claims be has quit drinking.
I hope he has, aud hope he will keep
steadfast in his determination to abstain
from 1t. When this man Is sober he Is
always a gentleman; when he Is drunk he
is not, neither Is any other man. We are
all dis ,usted with u drunken man-what
must be the feelings OF a wife who is COM
pelled to live continually with drunkard?
This woman detests this man because OF his
own nets. He is to blame and no one else.

Some German Naval Titles.
North America.

The titles of some of the officials in
the German navy would tangle the
tongue of an American officer, and the
Emperor is trying to simplify them.
For example, a frigate captain was
formerly known as "korvet-
captain init berslieutenantrang." :"
There is Al officer on the list of the
German navy known as the marine:
kasseninspector," whose duties are to
inspect the marines, while the CHIEF
inspector of marines is known simply
as Observation-Disclosures
inspector. Imagine the Admiral
calling for that officer in the midst oil

Facing the Right Way.

The strongest have some weaknesses, the
bravest show some scars. Christian char
acter is to be estimated by the whole trend
and bent OF the man. No ship makes an abb
solutely straight track from New York har-
Dor to Fastnet Rock on the Irish coast: no
Christian can show chart OF his voyage
without some variations from the airline;
but il he holds on his way heading for
heaven, he will, by Gods help. reach it.
Some ChristIess people do many good things.
and some Christians may commit sad sins, as
Noah and Hezekiah and Peter did, and yet
have their faces set towards God. Every
thing depends on the direction in which the
life is steered, and on patient continuance In
well-doing To continue 10 the faith"
means-continue in vital heart-union with
the Lord Jesus, evermore in His omnipotent
grasp. and evermore under His supreme
ruidance-Cuyler.

The Drinking Women OF England.

The alarming increase OF the drinking
habit among English women Is causing
serious consideration among temperance

Lady Somerset sail to correspondent:
"There can be no doubt that the great
problem is presenting itself to the temper

safeguards thar surround them in other
countries to be set aside.
"As a nation we stand In the unenvlable

for Us to decide Is not only how to stem the
growing evil. but also how to deal with
those who have fullen and are fulling every
