He Goes Before You.

He goes before you, o my heart!
Fear not to follow where He leads;
He knows the strength each task de-
mands.
He knows the grace each trial needs.
He's lust a little farther on
Along the dark and lonely way,
His bleeding footprints you may trace,
He goes before you all the day.
He goes before you, o my heart!
Through deepest depth, Ger highest
height:
He knows where turks the ambushed foe.
And what the battles you must fight;
He sees the pitfalls you will meet,
The place where you will faint or fall;
The WEAKNESS, the pain. the tears
He goes before, He knows 1t all.
He goes before you. my heart!
He does not ask that you shall bear
A single pang He has not borne.
A single grief He does not share:
He beckons on through toll and woe.
Through storm or calm or tempest
blast.
And YOU shall. see Him. as he said
For He shall lead you home at last.
He goes before you, o my heart!
Still follow on through gain or loss.
And for the joy that's set before.
Despise the shame. endure the cross.
The path your falt'ring steps must take
Is one His nail-perced feet have trod;
Through garden, mount and riven tomb
He goes before you up to God.

The door here shown is that Of St.
Mary's church, Felmersham, Bedford
shire, England. Besides the handle,
which turns the latch, there Is also
above it an iron ring fastened to an
iron plate. This is known az the
Ring of Refuge"
Any person who could reach the
door and hold the ring could claim
sanctuary, and persons violating 1t
were liable to accommodation.
The grant of the right of sanctuary
no doubt arose from the same inse-
curity of life in early days which
occasioned the Jewish institution Of
the cities of refuge. The law was
weak and passions were strong, es-
pecially where homicide, Intentional
or otherwise, seemed to demand per-
sonal vengeance from the relations Of
the dead or injured man.
AS early as the seventh century the
affairs of the churches were made
sanctuaries. BY them was sometimes
a stone seat, called the "Troth-Stone,
on which the person who sought ref

Invention Of Practical Value to the

Many q housewife and museum

that drawers as a rule are neither
dust nor vermin proof. To have your
treasures, whether they consist OF
linens, books or unreplacable speci-
mems ruined when they were appar,
emily secure from anything less than a
fire is disheartening to say the least.
Two Swedish inventors of Providence,
realizing the field that exists for q
dust and insect proof drawer put their
Ingenuity to work and have evolved
very simple but effective construc'
ton. The essential feature OF the
construction is a wooden or metallic
cover for each individual drawer
Three edges of this cover, the sides
and the rear, are provided with a
lownwardly extending flahse, adapted
to close in the sides and back end OF
the drawer. The front edge terminates
under a flange forming an integral
part Of the supporting framework.
This cover is pivoted at some nearly
central point, and as a drawer Is
withdrawn beyond this pivotal point
the cover drops down at the back and
raises correspondingly in the front
and as a drawer is withdrawn beyond
this pivotal point the cover drops
