C. e. CONVENTION.

The great Christian Endeavor con
vention, which will be held in the
city of Denver, commencing July 9th.
promises to be the biggest gathering
in Colorado this year. Every com
munity in the state should prepare for
it and all that can should go to the
meeting 1t will last one week.
1t has been conceded by the leading
religious exponents of the land that
the Christian Endeavor movement was
the greatest religious organization
having its inception during the nine
teenth century Its power as train
ing school for active church work has
been incalculable. Think of it; near
ly four millions of young people in
training for the church. No wonder
that the spiritual life of the church
has already been qnickened on account
of accessions to its mem bership from
thousands of its young neople who
have been in training.
The coming into the Centennial
State of a great International conven
tion of so powerful an interdenomina-
tional organization is no small thing.
The Christian people of Colorado can
not afford to let the coming conven-
tion pass without attending at least
one session.

Women Make Money for Church.

The Rev. Walker d. Stirling, rector
of st. Johns church of Mount Morris,
N. Y, hit upon a unique scheme of in
creasing the income of his parish. He
gave to each of fifty women in his
parish 81 year ago for investment.
The women turned over their earnings
which amounted to $411.S0. One
member made $40 in popcorn and an
other s17 in eggs.

Nearly 500 divorces-to be exact,

Enjoying Your Employment.

In love with your work is one Of
the sources-daily sources-of profita-
Bile originality. Though very few get
living doing just what they want to
do, yet many succeed and improve
their world of work. leaving their sub
ject in better shape than they found
it. Desire to do something well helps
people succeed though working at
their second or third choice of en-
ployment A Chicago man with a ma
tional reputation told me he had never
done the work he always wanted to
do. The work he wanted to do may
have been some youthful fancy. He is
done. Interest in your work brightens
your eye, sharpens your thought and
quickens your ear. We are continually
walking over good things-better
things-profitable opportunities. While
waiting with friends for a belated
how many would walk over it. We
got the value of the coin in entertain.
ment, as dozens of people walked over
it. Then we got the value of the coin
again when we saw the joyful face of
the old lady with basket who found
the coin, but did not see us. Greater
interest in our work lessons the num-
Der of good things walked over-it
helps us keep awake and thinking
straight. A short-sighted person could
see a dime on high hitching post,
yet be blind to gold eagle on the
ground. Greater interest in our work
lengthens our sight without injuring
its quality. Some of the things l tell
you in these letters may help you most
though they are the greatest distance
from the subject you are interested in.
You never '-now what is going to help
you see something new and useful to
you in your work. The art Of picking
up useful ideas in other lines of work
and twisting them into usefulness in
your work is a splendid art to acquire.

How ForeknowIedae Miqht Help.

When boy had pet Brahma pull
let, plump and good looking, of two or
three pounds weight. One day I en-
tered the hen park and on coming out
could not close the gate. There was
rubbery-spring of a resistance as
the gate came within a foot of the
post. AS I opened the gate to in
vestigate, my pet pullet ran out yard
and dropped dead. She had run in be-
tween the gate and the building under
the lower hinge. That lesson in ac-
curacy regarding gates and chickens
gave my affections a hard pull If
my pet had been alive and my fathers
hens all dead I would have suffered
less. That was expensive experience
Il never killed another chicken by
that gate-it made me think, look,
know more and it increased my accur-
acy. Why could not have learned by
observation what l learned by expen-
sive experience? l could have done so
had had my observation trained and
1 have done so many times since that
event. An old German friend told
me that we stopped growing when we
stopped making mistakes, and l must
be growing every day because l am
making mistakes right along, but
there are many kinds of mistakes and
l want to grow by making those which
do not kill pet pullets" if possible.
A Pennsylvania girl told me she did
not think it necessary to be poor in
order to be happy and l am trying to
see If we cannot learn by the valua-
BILE experiences Of others and lessen
the necessity Of errors and mistakes
on our part. We should become more
accurate and grow faster than we do
and good reading is one way to do 1t.

lnnenultv and ResourcefuIness.

One of my friends. an intelligent old
Englishman, told me about how his
predecessor and himself had fixed up
the little house in which he works. He
makes me think that useful little
schemes around one for convenience
and comfort are a part of ones life.
He is a gateman on a railroad in a
suburb. He works fifteen hours a day,
seven days a week for thirty-five dol
lars a month, without any holidays.
He is happy and would not lose his
position for a double gold eagle. My
collection contains some written obser-
vations he has made.

For the Individual
Private Time Possibilities.

Thirty minutes q week for thirty
years is sufficient time for any person
to develop a useful side-line subject
to an altitude requiring international
attention.
Private time study requires a great
self-control. Generally there is no
time for it or too much time spent on
it. Zeal for short time is easier than
persistency and good judgment for
decades.
One of the most successful lawyers
in the United States told me that a
night school was of great use to him.
He attended class after he had been
admitted to the bar, to overcome one
of his deficiencies.
Here are few items from my let
ter to young people on ten minutes a
day for ten years:
A minute is something like dime.
1t can be used usefully or abused
sham efully.
1t can be invested in way to bring
good interest in a money -muscle.mind
manner
1t is fortunate for young people to
voluntarily see this manner.
1t is expensive experience to have
to learn it Involuntary.
Take a note book costing a dime,
more or less, and spend ten minutes
with it day, three hundred days a
year.
In ten years that means fifty days
of ten hours each.
If, at the end of ten years, you can
say the five hundred hours have in
creased your ability from two to TWEEN
ty-five per cent you will not regret
your efforts.
You can do this, and if you do it
you are sure to gain by it.
Every day add sentence or para
graph you think worth saving.
Watch for something to write or
paste in your book; have your eyes,
ears and mind ever ready to catch
good hints in your work and recrea-
ton, your reading and conversation.
Every day re-read some one para
graph or sentence and try to twist it
into fresh shape to help you do the
best you can to-day, and, if possible,
better tomorrow.
Life is worth living when we know
how to live and live as well as we
know how.

opportunities for eetterment.

After a sickness we have a chance
to put to use the good resolutions
made during sickness and improve our
methods. We can seek better food and
use greater care in eating. A dimes
worth of food well eaten does more
good than a dollars worth carelessly
consumed. Pleasure in eating is a
good condiment, but studied pleasure
just for pleasure alone leads us into
all kinds Of trouble.
