we prefer the higher, eternal life, we
can sacrifice this life and get it, To
gain eternal life we must lost this pres
ent life. But surely we should not hesi-
tate to suffer such a loss for such gain.
For what is man profited If he shall
gain the whole world and lose his life,
or what shall a man give in exchange
for his life?''
Elizabeth Barrett Browning puts the
truth in the following beautiful lines:
Measure thy life by loss instead of gain;
Not by the wine drunk; but the wine
poured forth:
For loves strength standeth in loves
sacrifice
And who suffers most has most to gain
LOST AND GAINED.
The Epworth league topic for Aug. 4 is
found in Mark x, $3.50. Christ impresses
upon Peter an important truth, that those
who lose for His sake gain many fold
Cases are not infrequent when the fam
lily and previous social life have been op-
posed to the service of Jesus. If one
resolves to be true follower of God, the
tamlly and former associates have TO be
left and new friends found This is a
most severe ordeal and tests all the 10y
atty and genuine piety of the soul Such
strains come more often in heathen
lands or in conversion from a nominal
christianity than in our ordinary eXpe-
Sometimes we find people, however,
IN our churches who feel that they have
given up much to become Christians
What pity such persons do not open
their eyes to the riches of their inheri-
tance and claim all the privileges open
to them.
The most hopeful social privileges the
world affords are wide open to every
real hearty believer in Christ The best
or culture, the broadcast learning the

ASYMMETRY OF THE FACE.
One of the principal obstacles in the
way of successful portrait photography =
said an time local expert, lis the
asymmetry of the average human face
The features of 80 people out of 100 are
dehiably asymmetrical-in other words,
the right and left sides are different in
size, shape and general contour. We
dent notice this variation unless our
attention is attracted to it, but it is
there all the same, and for some reason

Among men asymmetry often lends
great strength to a countenance. Bis

fact, and so was Gladstone If you are
