Begin To-day.

Is there nothing that Christ, as your
friend, your Lord, your Saviour, wants
you to do that you are leaving undone
today? Do you doubt one instant, with
His high and deep love for your soul,
that He wants you to pray? And do
you pray? Do you doubt one instant
that 1t is His will that you should hon.
or and help and bless all the men about
you who are His brethren? And are
you doing anything like that? Do you
doubt one instant that He wants you
to be pure In deed and word and
thought? And are you pure? Do you
doubt one instant that His command
Is for you openly to own Him and de-
clare that you are His servants before
the world? And have you done it?
These are questions which make the
whole matter clear. No; not In quiet
lanes or in the bright temple courts, as
once He spake, and not from blazing
heavens, as men sometimes seem to ex-
pect-not so does Christ speak to us.
And yet He speaks. l know what He,
there in all His glory-He, here in my
heart-wants me to do today, and l
know that / am not mistaken in my
knowledge. 1t is no guess of mine. 1t
is His voice that tells me.-Phillips
Brooks.

Have you ever seen the good In

this was realized. and he had risen
above you in your own sphere. were
you still able to praise him? This Is

toms. and no woman should allow
herself to reach such a perfection OF
misery when there is absolutely no
need of it. The subject of our por-
trait IN this sketch. Mrs. Williams of
Englishtown. Nj. has been entirely
cured of such illness and misery by
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and the guiding advice of Mrs.
Pinkham of Lynn, Mass.
No other medicine has such record
for absolute cures, and no other medi-
cine is Just as good" Women who
want cure should insist upon getting
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound when they ask for it at store.
Anyway, write a letter to Mrs. Pink
ham at Lynn, Mass, and tell her all
your troubles. Her advice is free.

When ii comes to be recognized more
generally, as il ought to be, that good
temper cannot only be cultivated, but Is
a Christian duty, and that one has no
moral right to infiict gloom and de-
spondency upon the home members Of
the community, We shall doubtless see
a marked change for the better. Doubt
less sunny disposition is natural to
some and not to others. But all may
acquire this as well as any other vir-
tue, and its possession is one of the
strong recommendations of ones re-
ligion. There is no reason why one
member of the family-say the un-
selfish mother-should supply all the
sunshine for the home-Watchman.

Apples are so abundant this year we
need to vary our ways OF preparing them
for the table. II you have not done so, try
this in place OF stewing apples: Pare and
quarter sour apples, place layer in pud-
ding dish and sprinkle sugar over them,
and SO continue till the dish is two-thirds
full, add a little water, cover and bake
slowly an hour or more.
Baked sweet apples with cream are
usually well liked.
Make a syrup OF white sugar and little
water, when hot put in sour apples pared
and quartered, and cook without stirring
so that the pieces Of apples will retain their
shape. E.

hoping to hear from you soon,

This psalm was probably written for

lives God sends special favors upon
US, aloB- with tie usual benefits that
we dailv receive from Him. Both
kinds Of blessings should be acknowl-
edged on Thanksgiving day and God
should be praised for them.
This psalm suggests many reasons
for praising the Lord.

both man and beast calls for continued
praise and thanksgiving. Our country
has been specially and wonderfully
blessed in temporal affairs in the past
year. Fruits abundant have been
borne by Our trees, our fields have
yielded abundant crops. and our indus

giving 10 God.
3. Praise the Lord for ecclesiastical
blessings Oversees 12-15). For protec-
ton, peace and plenty the church is
called upon to praise the Lord. The
church of Christ today in our land is
richly enjoying all these blessings.
Therefore let Us praise Him as
churches for His manifold blessings to
our churches.
4. Praise the Lord for national bless
ings (verse 2o). He hath not dealt so
with any nation God has greatly
blessed us as a nation in the past year.
We have goodly heritage. where the
favor of God seems to be freely dis
pensed. Let us therefore thank Him
in thought. in word and in deed.
