What the Bible Is.

Some writer gives the following analysis
of the "Book of books" the Bible.
1t is a book of laws, to show the right
from the wrong.
1t is a book OF wisdom, that makes the
foolish wise. :,
It is a book of truth, which detects al
human errors.
1t is a book Of life. and shows how to
avoid everlasting death.
1t is the most authentic and entertain
ing history ever published. =.
It contains the most remote antiquities,
the most remarkable events and wonderful
occurrences.
1t is q complete code of laws.
1t is a perfect body of divinity.
Il is an unequaled narrative.
1t is q book of biography.
It is a book of travels.
It is the best covenant ever made. the
best deed ever written.
1t is the best will ever executed, the best
testament ever signed.
1t is the learned mans masterpiece.
It is the young mans best companion. =
It is the schoolboy's best instructor.
It is the ignorant mans dictionary and
every mans directory.
1t promises an eternal reward to the
faithful and believing.
But that which crown all is the Author.
He is without Partially and without ny
pocrisy, with whom there is no variable
ness, neither shadow of neutrality-suspicious.
lntelligencer.

Oiled Japanese Paper.

Their oiled papers are as~tonishingly
cheap and durable. AS a cover for
his load of tea when q rainstorrn over
takes him the Japanese farmer spreads
over it q tough, pliable cover Of oiled
paper, which is almost as impervious
as tarpaulin and as light as gossamer.
He has doubtless carried this cover for
years, neatly packed away somewhere
about his cart. The "rikisha" coolies
in the larger cities wear rain NANTES
Of this oiled paper, which cost less
than eighteen cents and last for a year
or more with constant use. An oiled
tissue paper, which is as tough as
writing paper, can be had at the sta
toner's for wrapping up delicate arti-
Giles.
In the tea factories the plies OF paper
sacks filled with tea are made Of shibu
galni. 1t Is said that these tanned
sacks keep the tea in better condition
than any other sort, and that they
last, with careful use, for many years.
Grain and meal sacks are almost al
wayp made of this same paper in
Japan, for it is not easily penetrated
by weevils and other insects.
But perhaps the most remarkable of
all the papers which find a common
use in the japanese household are the
leather papers Of which the tobacco
pouches and pipe cases are made.
They are almost as tough as French
kid, so translucent that one can nearly
see through them, and as pliable and
soft rs calfskin. These tobacco
pouches quite change ones notions of
the characteristics Of paper, for the
material of which they are made is as
thick rs cardboard, but as flexible as
kid.-Geographic Magazine.

The False and True Point of View.

The cry, "back to Christ" needs guard,
ing, or it may become mischieyous and
misleading. From all human theologies
and priestly systems we do well to turn,
and to make our appeal to Christ. But
which Christ? The Christ pre-pentecostal
or the Christ post-pentecostal? The differ;
ence between the two IS immense. 10 Dld
a modern person 'place himself in thought
and Imagination where the first disciples
encountered Him." is to direct him to a
false point Of view. 1t is to ask a man to
understand the full shining of the sun.
The true point of view for a soul is that
which enables him to see Christ gloTIfed
and interpreted by the Holy Ghost. Those
who adopt the first position often make
doctrines of Grace. The whole truth con-
corning our Lord is only understood by
those who behold Him as fully revealed
by the Holy Spirit in the Acts, the Epis'
ties and the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Chris

Fashions Latest Freak.

Whence came it? What era in an
cient or modern history produced 1t:
Did any woman ever live who looked
well in it?
These gaspings result from a con-
temptation of Fashions latest freak,
the deep armhole. 1t occupies the posi-
ton usual with armholes, its upper
edge at the extremity Of the shoulder;
but from there it extends down, way
down into the side Of the waist, reach
ing a point only a few inches above
the waist line. And this hiatus is filled
in with the sleeve, which is cut cor
respondingly enormous, hanging with
the graceful lines peculiar to potato
sacks in their leisure hours. One Of
these armboles noted had a sort Of
binding Of velvet ribbon to conceal the
seam. OF course if this armhole Is to
be it will be. We shall all wear it and
In course Of time think it beautiful. But
at first it is more appalling than the
hoop skirt.

coming. This one is made Of insertion
held by fancy stitches and is combined
with q waist Of fine yelling that
matches the skirt, but the design is
appropriate for many other materials
and combinations and for the odd
waist as well as for the costume. The
frill Of lace makes q noteworthy fea-
ture and gives peculiar grace to the
figure.
The waist is made with q fitted foun-
dation upon which its full front and
backs are arranged, and with a point
cd yoke that extends over the upper
portion Of both lining and sleeves, the
closing of both waist and yoke being
made at the centre back. When a
transparent effect is desired the lining
can be cut away beneath the yoke, or
the lining can be omitted altogether
and the waist and sleeves attached to
its lower edge.
The quantity Of material required
for the medium size is three and one
half yards twenty-one inches wide,
two and one-half yards twenty-seven
inches wide, or n and one-half yards

The Management of Wives.

Another thing the tactful husband
does Is to let his wife cry. l don't
NEAR that he drives her to crying, or
that he lets ner weep while lie stands
unsympathetically by with his hands
in his rousers pockets, his feet apart,
and grinning sardonically. l mean
that when AZ emotional woman needs
a good cry. he realizes that it will re.
lieve the tension. He does not get up
and rage ;.bout and kick footstools out
of the way and say. "Oh, for heavens
sake, stop crying!"
No! He goes and pats her shoulder
soothingly and says:
"There, little woman! I'm sorry the
cook has left and your new gown hooks
ND crookedly, but cheer up! Let's go
out and have q jolly little dinner. and
tomorrow III write that tailor q letter
that will make his hair curl"
Then she looks up through her tears
and thinks how handsome and big and
strong and glorious he is, and before
the dinner is over, she has thought up
two ways in which to economize. and
so pay for the extravaganza of his or
der to the waiter. For the common
purse is rot elastic, and she knows it.

Were there ever a .sadder story? It
is the story Of a thousand homes in this
community, of a hundred thousand homes
in this city. 1t is what some of you are
coming to-, dear friends, unless you take
warning. Let this Bible give you such o
warning tonight. May it ever be a warn
ing to every family of this church.
As often as the eyes of those worshiping
here shall rest upon it, may it speak to
them its solemn message with a voice that
cannot be drowned-let not the fire burA
low on your hearthstone, but keep up tho
freside glow. See that your home is in
family altar to become O ruin. Have q
family Bible and use it. Take care that
mildew spots, like those which I find here
that are always signs of disuse. are not al.
lowed to mar it. Read the Old Book to
Your children. Read it to your own soul.
Without it your home life will grow hol.
low and unholy, Your children will deter.
iorate, your own soul shrivel up and die.
Thus this Bible shall stand as a memo
rial to a typically deteriorated New York
home. and as a warning to the families
that have not likewise deteriorated, but
shall it not also be at the same time a
memorial to something higher and more
inspiring-to the glorious character and
ministry of the word CT Cod rs an abiding
and ever expanding power among men?
Here is a fountain that was long sealed,
but it has begun to flow, and its streams
shall water not one home but q thousand.
This book so seldom used before snail be
opened with every recurring service within
this house of prayer, to be read, eXpound-
ed and applied to the multiplying hun
dreds that shall worship here. This Bible
was disowned, desecrated, cast out as rub
bish into the street, only to be recovered,
honored. set in a high place, elevated to a
public throne from which it will issue a
verdict of condemnation upon this home
and every home in this city that has
turned God from its door, but will speak
comfort, hope and strength to those with.
in which the word of God dwells and exer-
cises its heavenly dominion. While this
book shall utter its admonition, then, let
it also speak forth its word of encourage.
ment and triumph. telling all who shall
henceforth behold it that the word Of God
liveth and abideth forever; that however
much men may attack it and seek to de-
stroy it, it shall come out Of every battle
a thousand fold stronger than before, and

former perimeter OF influence.

costume and separate wraps. This
one is adapted to both purposes and
includes a novel yoke that adds great
ly to the effect. AS shown it is made
of light weight cheviot stitched with
corticelli silk, but all suitings and ma
terials in use for jackets of the sort
are equally appropriate.
The coat is made with fronts and
backs that are laid in box pleats which
extend for full length. and are joined
to q shallow foundation yoke. The
shaped yoke is arranged over the whole
and the belt passes over the pleats at
the back, under those at the front. The
sleeves are large and ample, laid in box
