WAS ENEMY OF KNOCKERS"
Printer Tried Earnestly for the Ref.
ormation of Mankind.

ormation OF Mankind.
Several years ago a printer of the
Gilbert Hubbard" school started
print shop in one of the smaller cities
of New England. The place was fitted
up "Roycroftie," and above the old
fashioned brass knocker at the side of
the entry he hung a sign which read,
Enter without knocking"
To many this would merely presage
a welcome to the shop within; but to
the more subtle, suggestion that the
shortcomings of other men, among
them printers, were of no interest to
him.
The new print shop attracted many
patrons, among whom were, unfor-
ciate the style" peculiar to this schol.
ar-printer. Some of these were quite
caustic in their arraignment of his
manner of handling their ideas, and
he felt that in some way he must ad'
monish them, lest their opinions, II
expressed, should add to the ranks Of
the unappreciative.
So he had prepared another sign,
Depart without knocking" and hung
1t within his sanctum. This to i'm
press upon his callers the futiility OF
bruiting abroad their differences OF
opinion.
Some, however, continued to offend
and to help them lay aside their per
niciOus habits he had driven into the
wall within the entry, large nail
under which he placed q sign, Hang
your hammer here"
He felt that some would enter, leav
ing their hammer" upon the nail ant
perhaps, to his lasting benefit, leave Il
behind and depart without knocking.

Architects of Ourselves.

We are all architects of ourselves,
and whatever else you and l make, or
fail to make, in this world, we are
making the greatest thing of all, and
that is character. IL we could only
keep that before ourselves as we ought
to do, with what mystic solemnity it
would clothe smallest things of our
daily action! And how it would make
us feel that nothing is Indifferent and
nothing to be done lightly, and that
all in a most profound sense is eter-
nal! Nothing human ever dies. They
tell us that the vibrations of light so
rushing through the whole space of
the universe and never cease You
have set going, by every act of your
self, vibrations which last to erternity:
Through our soul the echoes roll
And grope forever and forever
Character is a robe, and we are our
own weavers and clothiers, and we
wear what We have made.-Alexande
Maclaren.
We never regret what we did not
say so keenly as what we said.

For Troublesome Feet.

A decoction of white oak bark is in
valuable for perspiring feet. To make
the decoction place one ounce of white
oak bark to one and one-half pints of
boiling water and simmer very slowly
for two or three hours; cool, strain
and add four ounces of alcohol; then
bottle for use. The most convenient
mode of application is to pour out a
small quantity in a saucer and apply
to the feet with a velvet sponge, after
giving them a warm bath.

The Gain of Loss.

It is impossible to estimate the bene-
fits of affection. Most men count
their Affections as so much loss. They
consider that every day of suffering is
a lost day, and that all the pain they
bear is a disadvantage in the race of
life. Life is narrower, feebler, less
valuable because of sickness, loss and
trouble. But they do not consider
wisely. Many men have gained far
more by their Affections than by their
pleasures. Adversely has added more
to life than prosperity.
A paralytic was brought to Jesus.
His afiiction was very great. Men
pltied him and wondered why he
should have been visited with so
great a misfortune. But il was not
altogether evil. Perhaps he would
never have come in contact with Jesus
lad he not been afflicted. Coming to
Jesus for healing, he found salvation
rlso. We have no reason to suppose
that he would ever have heard the
words, "Thy sins be forgiven thee"
had IL not been for his affliction. He
will have cause to thank God through
nut eternity for his paralysis.
Moreover, he became an object les
son to the multitudes who thronged
about our Lord and Witnessed the won
derful miracle. It was worth all he
had suffered to be honored with the
privilege OF preaching Jesus to unbe-
levers through his healing and saliva
ion. Yea, and his testimony was not
United to those who saw tho miracle.
The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1904-08-26

Wherever he went through life the
man that was healed was living wit
ness of the power and grace of Jesus
Christ. Every one who met him must
Lave felt the power of that miracle.
Nor has his testimony ceased. He
still bears witness. Thousands of
years have passed away, and his voice
IS still heard. What blessing to the
world was the paralysis of that man!
Let us not murmur when affection
comes upon us. 1t may be said of our
affliction as it was of the blindness OF
the man whom our Lord healed:
Neither hath this man sinned, nor his
parents: but that the works Of God
might be made manifest in him."

Psalm XIII.

The Lords my Shepherd ever blest;
And surely L no want shall know
In pastures green He make me rest,
He leads me where still waters flow.
His grace restores with succor meet
My soul when faint and comfortless:
He for His names sake guides my rect
In paths of peace and righteousness.
Yea, though 1 walk through deaths dark

No fear of evil shall there be;
For Thou art with me; nor can fail
Thy rod and staff to comfort me.
For me Thou hast a table spread
Before the presence of my foes;
With oil Thou dost anoint my head;
My cup of blessing overfows.

Shall fellow me till life is DER;
Then in Jehovah's house above
