for love of service. 'As unto the
Lord and not unto men How few
servants ever think of that! The
Lord is the real Master. He is being
served if what l do is good thing
that needs doing. There is no re-
spect of persons How great thing
that is! In Gods sight my soul is
as much worth saving as any other.
He thinks as much of me as He does
of the rich and the famous. Masters,
render unto your servants that
which is just and equal If tnat were
done, it might make conditions far
different so far as the servant girl
question is concerned. But who will
tell us what is meant by just and
equal to-day?" Barbara shook her
head doubtfully, and went on.

Master in Heaven That helps me.
Paul must have known my need as
we'll as the need of the poor bond
servants to whom he wrote. "A Mas
ter in Heaven May He help me to
serve Him in spirit and in truth"
So Barbara the next day did not
present the appearance of the mod
ern broken-heartod heroine in the
nd-of-the-century novel. Anyone
who knew her could plainly see
marks in her face and manner of a
great experience. But there was no
gloom about her, no un-Christian
tragic bewailing of fate or circum-
stance. If she were to live her
life as she supposed she should,
without life's greatest help to live,
so far as human love can go, she
would at least live it bravely as so
many other souls have done. And
yet, Barbara, you know we'll enough
that Ambition does not spell Love.
And, in spite of all, you know your
heart would tremble if the young
minister of Marble Square church
should pass you and give you one
earnest look out of his great dark
eyes, as he did on that well-remem-
bered day when he said that you
were beautiful. All, Barbara! Are
you quite sure you have forever bid
den farewell to the hottest dream of
your womanhood?

with her work, and in the evening
went over to Mrs. Vane's to see her
again concerning the proposed build
ing. She was eager to get to work.
Her heart longed for busy days to
keep her mind absorbed.
Mrs. Yane suggested several good
ideas.
while you are waiting to COM
plete the details of the building it
self, why not interview large num-
Der of factory and store girls about
their work? Find out something
about the reasons that appeal to
young women for choice of labor.
You are not certain that you can get
any girls to attend your training
school. I think you can, but very
many other good people will tell you
your plan is senseless. 1t is only
when people begin to try to do good
in the world that they discover what
fools they are. Other people who
never make an effort to better the
world will tell them so. There will
arise host of tormenting critics as
soon as the idea of your proposed
trafning-school is suggested. They
will tear it all to pieces. Don't pay
any attention to them. The world

CHAPTER VII.

WE CANNOT CHOOSE IN ALL THINGS.
When Barbara went ont into the
darkness after that scene with Miss
Dillingham;, it was more than the
darkness of physical night that op-
pressed her. She thought she realized
with vividness more real than she
had ever before experienced tho gulf
that separated her from the young
minister of Marble Square church.
With almost grim resolve she said to
herself: II have dreamed q vain
dream. I will give myself up now to
my career. Whatever ambition have
shall center about the possibilities of
service. He can never be anything to
me. It would risk all his prospects in
life, even if-even if-he should come
to care for me-" Her heart failed at
the suggestion, for there had been in
timations on the part Of the young
preacher that Barbara could not help
interpreting to mean at least real in
terest in her and her career.
"But no, it is not possiblel" she said
positively as she walked on. His life
is dependent on social conditions that
he must observe. For him to ignore
them must mean social loss and pos
sibly social disgrace. The minister of
Marble Square church care for hired
girl! Make her his wife!" Barbara
trembled at the thought of the sacred
word which she hardly whispered to
her heart. Even if she were as we'll
educated and well equipped for such a
position as any young woman in his
parish, still, nothing could remove the
fact of her actual service. And
service" Barbara bitterly said to her
self as she neared home, Service is no
longer considered noble thing. 1t is
only beautiful young women like Miss
Dillingham;, who have nothing to do,
who have the highest place in society.
A girl who is really doing something
with her hands to make a home sweet
er, more peaceful spot is not regarded
by the world as worth more than any
other cog In a necessary machine. So
ciety cannot give realservice any place
In its worship. 1t is only the leisure
of idle wealth and fashion that wins
the love and homage OF the world"
"And the church, too," Barbara con-
tinued in her monologue, after she
had hidden her mother good night and
gone up to her room. "The church,
too, in its pride and vainglory is ready
to join the world in scorn of honest
labor of the hands" She recalled all
the real and fancied Sights and re-
Bluffs she had endured in the church
and from church people since going
out to service, and for few minutes
her heart was hard and bitter toward
all Christian people. But gradually,
as she grew quiet, her passion cooled,
and she said to herself in a short
prayer: Lord, let me not offend by
judging too hastily and II In to lose

had made a collection of her passages
relating to service, and tonight she
added to it from one of Paurs let

read them aloud: Servants, obey in
all things them that are your mas
tiers according to the fesh;. not with
eye service, as men-pleasers, but in
singleness of heart, fearing the Lord;
whatsoever we do, work heartily, as
unto the Lord, and not unto men;

receive the recompense of the inher-
itance; We serve the Lord Christ. For
he that doeth wrong shall receive
again for the wrong that he hath
done; there is no respect of persons.
Masters, render unto your servants
that which is just and equal; know
ing that ye also have Master in
Heaven"
"ot course" Barbara unused, after
saying the words, "all this was said
to actual slaves, whose bodies were
bought and sold in the market like
cattle. But what wonderful words to
be spoken to any class Of servants
either then or now! Whatsoever We
do, work heartify!' One thing that
servants lack in their service is

August, Sweetheart of the Sun,
Summer work is nearly done.
While the idle days are going
List thy ardent lovers wooing.
Now the year is in its prime
Take thy brief vacation time.
Stubbly fields are brown and yellow,
Pippins ripe are growing mellow.
Ranks on ranks of shining corn,
Jeweled by the dew of morn,
Whisper in the evening airs
Like a legion saying prayers.

Harvest moons on gathered grains;
Tender hearts bit forlorner,
Summers turned another corner!
