HE GIvETH HIS BELOVED SLEEP

When sinks the sun behind the curtained
And waiting shadows forth in silence
creep,
And, brooding. soothe weary world to
rest,
IT'S so God giveth His beloved sleep.
AS flowers at eve their petal eyelids close
And birds with wingwrapt head their
slumber keep,
While Ger all breathes the soft wing OF
repose,
IT'S so God giveth His beloved sleep
Afeld at morn they went, toiled. and
achieved,
In lowly vale or on imperilled steep
Till welcome eve their weary hands re-
lieved;
For so God giveth His beloved sleep.
In ministries of love by suffering bed
The patient watchers faithful vigil keep,
TIL for meet rest their head is pillowed
An so God giveth His beloved sleep.
On Sorrows sea, where tossed on billowy
Or whelmed where deep calls unto echo
ing deep,
"Come unto Me-" He says. "Ill give you
rest"
And so God giveth His beloved sleep.
O boon divine! serene and restful calm:
While storms may rage and angry tenn
pests sweep:
For feyerish ills and tears healing balm
Ev'n so God giveth His beloved sleep.
They follow Him; where the Good Shep-
herd feeds
His flock they 60 The lambkns and the
sheep,
AT eve. for fold and rest He homeward
leads;
And so God giveth his beloved sleep.
Enigmas, which a battling puzzle seem,
And problems, howsoever dark and deep
When 'slept on" solve themselves as In
a dream;
And so God giveth His beloved sleep.
Sweet is the kiss of sleep, like kiss of love
When mother gives her babes to angel
keep;
IT'S like benediction from above:
And so God giveth His beloved sleep.
Kind angels sing for them His lullaby;
His arms enfold and guarding safely
keep,
While on His tender breast they peaceful
lie;
For so God giveth His beloved sleep.
He makes their bed, knows their infirm-
tiles,
And pities them; He counts the tears
they weep,
And softly wipes them from their closing
eyes.
And SO God giveth His beloved sleep.
Around their couch In His incessant eye;
He sumbers not who doth His children
keep;
For their defense His loving hand is nigh;
The while God giveth His beloved sleep.
o! sweet and blest repose-weary and worn
They rest-refreshed, restored; no more
to weep;
They wake to hail the glad, eternal morn;
For so God giveth His beloved sleep.

WHEN WE GROW OLD.


When we grow old, dear love. and from my
eyes
The light and brilliance of my hot youth
dies,
And all the fairness you are praising now
Casts but its wrath Ger lip and cheek and
brow,
While one by one our golden visions flee
ask you-will you love me faithfully
When we grow old?
When time shall turn these sunny locks to
gray,
From my trim form all beauty take away,
When grace and ease and elegance are
gone.
And nought is left Loves fires to feed upon,
You, whom 1 chose my king among all
men,
Still your hearts queen, shall be reigning
When we grow old?
God keep you ever happy by my side!
Though age may stem this fevered passion
tide
When worn and weary down Life's vale we
stray
Be my hearts anchor as you are to-day;
Be my true love that shall the closer cling
Through all the changes coming years may
bring;
Our faith upheld-count this our lasting
gain
That we so live that Love undimmed re-
When we grow old!

DEATH IN BAD WATER.
An Unexpected source of Innumer-
able Ills - Disease from
the Dairy.

In the case of the water-borne Dac-
terra, as those producing typhoid and
n;iarial fevers, cholera and diarrheal
diseases, the most common means of
distribution has been the drinking wa
ter. \ great many proofs of this have
been found which cannot be reviewed
here. But few other means of bring
ing these into our food and drink have
been traced out Thus polluted water
used in washing milk cans (witho,It
charging actual dilution) has been
known to spread this disease to all the
customers of the dairy following the
practice. Since these sources are now
commonly accepted as those from which
typhoid fever arises. we need not dwell
upon them here. The proofs, however,
are numerous and indisputable, and are
universally accepted by all who have
examined into the matter.
That malarial diseases, including ague
and intermittent fevers, are to be traced
directly to the drinking water is not
so generally accepted. That this is true,
however, has now been fully estab
1ished, and we will cite a single case
which alone is sufficient to prove the
claim. At Brownsville, Tex, on the
Rio Grande, is United States military
post which takes its water from the
Rio Grande. 1t is also surrounded by
what are commonly accepted as the
most typical malarial conditions, such
as swamps and stagnant lagoons. Up
TO 1890 the hospital record of this post
was by far the worst in the country
in the matter of malarial diseases The
medical report for this station in 1890
gave 1876 hospital admissions per 900
of strength, and this was normal num-
Der for the post.
In the following year an ice plant
was installed to serve the post, and in
cidentally condenser coil was added
70 obtain distilled water for drinking
purposes. 4 year later this water was
found so beneficial that it was at once
supplied 10 the entire post for drink
ing and for all culinary purposes. II
the following year the hospital adhis
sions for malarial diseases fell TO 10 per
1000 of strength, or less than one per
cent of what they had been regularly
during the entire life of the post.-San-
itarian.

FRILLS OF FASHION.
Pretty Evening Dresses for Young
Ladies - ParasOIs, Capes, Etc,
for summer.

The finish of sleeves at the wrists is q
point in fashion very carefully consid-
cred this season. There are points and
scallops cut on the sleeves and falling
over the hand, and little circular frills
set in, and the facing of these is quite
rs important as the trimming out
side, if not more so. White satin is the
prevailing facing, and this is covered
with cream lace or black chantilly, or
trimmed with little frills of lace or
chiffon.
Pretty evening dresses for young
girls are made of cream net over taffeta
silk, and trimmed from waist to hem
with frills of white satin ribbon.
Belts for the neck are not really nov
elites, but they have blossomed out in
new and varied designs for the summer
girl. The latest is a sort of dog collar
in silver or gold arranged in medallions
with chains between, or made in a solid
band set with jewels. These are worn
over band of colored ribbon, with
belt for the waist to match.
a parasol which matches the color in
your hat is the chic thing to have this
season.
pretty summer cape is made with
two accordion plated ruffles of white
chiffon striped with black satin on the
edge. The plaitings are finished with
a tiny ruche of chiffon, and a ruche of
chiffon with long scarf ends completes
this dainty wrap made on a white taft
feta silk foundation.
The new MORE silks interviewer with
floral designs are as soft and pliabe as
oriental satin.
Velvet c'rd neck chains strung with
coral beads are one of the seasons nov
elites.
y few yards Of tulle, more yards of
fine wire and a bunch of flowers form a
good recipe for fashionable toaue.
Simple enough in the abstract, yet no
one but the most artistic milliner can
bring anything like success out of this
combination.
Fancy vests and waistcoats are fea-
lures of the new cloth gowns. There
are pique vests and vests of white cord
ed silk, daintily lowered and but
toned with pearl buttons, besides the
low-cut, double-breasted waistcoat
worn over a chemisette front of lace or
chiffon IN. y. Sun.

PARROTS REVENGE.
He Sought to Make the Chickens CALI
Him Uncle" and Fixed
Them.

The parrots home had been changed.
Since then it had been sour and gloomy.
Hardly had it spoken word. and, when
it did, the words it used were short and
snappish, which plainly showed its an
ger. When fed it would walk to the
furthest corner of the cage and yell:
Get out, you rascal"
One day the new owner, trying to get
on friendly terms with it, went up to
the cage, and, in smoothing tone,
said:
Does poor Polly want cracker"
At this the parrot glanced at him as IL
saying: who are your and then
walked to the further side of the cage.
"Now, why doesn't poor Polly talk to
me?" he said.
Still the parrot was silent.
Polly" he begged, IF you will just
call me uncle, will not ask you to say
anything else!"
But nothing he could say had any eff
feet on Polly.
Polly. say, call me uncle, or you will
be sorry!" said the owner, rather an
grily.
The parrot remained as sullen as ever.
In no way could he get it to talk.
"Well, Polly. when l come home to-
night the best thing for you to do is to
call me uncle" he said, as he left the
house
That night when he came back Polly
was as silent as ever. There it sat on its
perch. with as naughty look as any
parrot could put on. From its looks it
would never speak again. The owner
thought otherwise. Going to the cage
he said, in a commanding voice; POL
". you rascal, call me uncle, or I'll fix
you."
But the parrot still held its peace.
"One more chance. Polly; if you don't
call me uncle l will fasten you in the
chicken house tonight" he said, as he
started to pick up the cage.
But the parrot said never a word.
The owner was mad. Taking the cage
in one hand and lamp in the other he
made his way to the chicken house,
where he dumped Polly on the ground.
Carefully fastening the door he went
back to the house, chuckling to himself
and thinking how glad Polly would be
to call him uncle in the morning.
When morning came the owner, anX-
ious to see how the punishment had
worked on Polly, started to the chicken
house. AS he came near he heard loud
talking on the inside. 1t was the par
rot.
'Ah, | knew that was the scheme to
make him talk smiled the owner to
himself. He quietly opened the door.
Behold, the sight that met his eyes!
Every hen was lying dead on the
ground, the old rooster was backed up
in the corner, and the parrot was walk
ing to and fro in front of him, saying:
Call me uncle, you rascal, or I'll fix
you.'-Cincinnati Enquirer.

Wish ing and Willing.

Some men seem to think that when
they have praised virtue they have
done their duty by it. "How beautiful
is goodness" we say ooh, that were
good" If this is only wistful, we are
wrong. II it expresses our decision to
stain that goodness, we are right. To
praise q virtue without determining to
possess it is first step toward moral
suicide. To wish and not to will is

"ACCORDING TO THY DAY."
Gods Promise of Daily strength for

pOintments of Life.

In peculiar manner the Christian
upon to endure. The consciousness of
reserve power is in itself a source of
confidence and strength. Sailors 10 not
fear the storm very mach so long as
their vessel is stanch and there are
strong anchors and reliable cables on

duties and responsibilities of new day
with confidence because he knows
where there are unfailing resources

Choir, which holds even in the most ter
rife tempests of life. That anchor
never fails; that cable never parts.
The Christian must not expect eX-

disappointments of this life. They will
come, and may come like an avalanche.
Many says the Psalmist, "arc the
Affections of the righteous, but the

And the way of deliverance is frequent
~ through the acceptance of the
strength which He gives to meet the

Eject of Reputation on Character.

Reputation helps to make character.
To be continually telling a boy thai he
is bad boy is more likely to make him
worse than better. To give class the
reputation of being the worst class
in school," and to keep noising it
abroad, is not likely to raise the moral
tone or discipline of the class. A man
who has served out term in prison
for crime finds it hard to show himself
trustworthy, because nobody trusts
him. His reputation as.an eX-prisoner
clings to him, and, unless he is eX-
ccptionally strong of will, reform seems
hopeless to him, and he sinks back TO
the level to which his bad reputation
has been depreciating him. AS the
character of Others depends largely
upon their reputation, we should be
careful how we handle that reputa-
tons. S. Times.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
items of Useful Information for the
Benefit Of the Young
Housewife.

All good housewives should see that
screens are placed early in the season
at every door and window. 1t is a great
mistake to neglect this important mat
ter. as flies have already made their APP
pearance.
Glass door knobs are handsome and
more easily kept in good condition than
those of bronze or brass.
The reason that cake sometimes
falls" on taking it out of the oven is
that it was not done. To ascertain
when the cake is done press the cake
gently with the finger. If it is firm to
the touch and leaves no dent, it is done,
or the surer way is to hold the pan
close to the ear: if there is no noise in
side the cake is done.
The icebox should be washed, scalded
and wiped and the waste pipe flushed
with sal soda water twice each week.
No food must spoil in it, and fresh
lump of charcoal each month will alb
sorb any possible odors.
If you want to be healthy eat spin

vegetables 1t contains salts of po-
tassium and iron in abundance. The
iron in spinach is easily digested. The
fact that spinach has such remarka
BILE effect upon the complexion will rec
ommend it to the girls, and it acts upon
the liver also.
TO remove wine and fruit stains, wet
the stain with clean water, strike a
match and hold it so that the sulphur
Gus vapor is diffused over the stain;
sometimes two matches are needed,
rarely more. When the dress comes
from the wash the stain will have
completely vanished. All stains of
wine, fruit and colored juices of vege-
tables will yield to this treatment. An
other method to remove stains is to
stretch the linen over tub, pour very
hot water from distance on stains
till they disappear. Soak a few minutes
in clear water; wash with soap, then
put in boiler with cold water and soap
powder: scald, then rinse.
The majority of housekeepers say
that it is not good plan to soak clothes
over night. When the wet is cold it
sets the dirt. The best way is to fill
the tub half full with good warm water,
with a wineglassful of ammonia, and
soak the clothes ten minutes, pound and
wiring out. Put in another tub fixed the
same way; rub clean with soap; scald,
rinse in clean water; then blue; wiring
in a wringer, and hang in the sunshine.
The kitchen floor should be scrubbed
with soap and little soda. After
dishes are washed the sink mast be
cleaned at once with soda and plenty of
boiling water. Ranges should be
cleaned and polished every night.
1t has been discovered that narbled
enameled cloth is serviceable for the
walls Of kitchens and buffers pantries.
This cloth has been found of value app
piled to bathroom walls, as it is water
proof, and also very easily cleaned.
These qualities make it useful in the
kitchen as a wall covering. 1t can be
fitted as neatly as paper, little glue
being added to the paste by which it
is put on. 1t is cheaper than paint and
more durable than waterproof papers,

AS matter of fact, the Westerly boy

Dunn had shore leave nj Manila, and
as his time was nearly up. he won
dered how he was going to get back to
the Olympia on time, as discipline is
strict in such matters, and naval men
make IL point of honor to report
promptly. just then he saw Admiral
Dewey's beautiful launch. She was as
white as white paint could make her,
and her brass work shone like molten
gold. Dunn didn't hesitate. for he had
to be back. He walked aboard of her
and said: 'TakG me back TO the ship
As he was an officer and member of
the ships company, the men obeyed.
when he was congratulating him
self in the ward room mess for getting
back on time, some one suggested that
he had better wait to see how the AL.
miral would take it. At this junetnre
an orlerly came in. and delivered the
message that the admiral would like
TO see Mr.. Dunn in the cabin.
Damn said it was an awkward mo-
ment for him. The admiral looked him
over quizzically. and then askeds Mr..
Dunn, how long is il since YOU have
been an admiral in the United States
service?'
Poor Dunn said that he was never
so taken back in his life. He was so
embarrassed that he felt meaner than
the monkey that had swallowed the
canary, and had nothing to say. That
will do said the admiral, ten days be-
low decks And then Dunn went away
glad to get out of the cabin.
'Of course all the ward room mess
said: 1 told you So and at inspection
the formality of taking away Dunn's
sword was gone through with and he
was placed under arrest in his cabin.
Two hours later the orderly presented
himself with the message that the adj
miral would like to see Mr.. Dunn in
