Oratory. the gift Of prophecy, wis
dom. knowledge. faith, charity, SELF
sacrifice-all these without love-are
nothing. The chapter closes with these
words;
And now abideth faith, hope, love,
these three; but the greatest of these
is love-"
1t Is the most important thing in the
world. Suppose 1t should suddenly be
taken out Of your life. No love Of
wife, OF sweetheart, Of children. Could
money take Its place? Never! Life
would not be worth the living.
The worst kind Of poverty is that
which sacrifices the inner life for the
vantage. 1t is bad enough to have the
body hungry. I know what the means.
But 1t is far worse to starve the soul.
Four Glasses Of Men.
After all, poverty Is an individual
matter. It does not belong to any par
ticular class. Some people tell US that
our country is divided into two great
classes, the capitalistic and the pro-
letariat; the wealthy and the working
class. There are really four kinds Of
people in the world today:
The poor, poor-those who have no
money and nothing else. 49,,
The rich poor-those who have no
money, but who have the. other things
that I have been writing about.
The poor rich-those> who have
money, but nothing else.
The rich, rich-th0se who have
money as we'll as the other things.
The last class, as a rule, ought to
be the happiest people, but II I had to
choose between a rich poor man or q
poor rich" man, l would rather be
g. rich poor" man-and anybody may
be rich poor man.
Why Some Social Schemes Have Failed
Poverty cannot be abolished by
wholesale, for the reason just given.
Scores of schemes planed for the aboli-
ton of poverty have been tried but
have all failed. No matter how they
may have been advocated in good faith
and no matter how earnest and sincere
were the men who promoted these
schemes, yet selfishness and laziness,
the lack of individual effort, depend
ence upon the community-these are
the reasons given for their failure. No
society can do for a man what he will
not do for himself.
A Society Of One Member.
You have discovered that I have
been preparing you for the statement
that the best kind Of an Anti-Poverty
Society is an organization composed Of
one member. He must be president,
e-president, secretary and treasurer;
he must do his own committee work;
he must get up his own constitution.
and principally: he must amend his
constitution. Most of US need to change
our attitude towards things In general
before we can become rich in the best
sense. We must get rid Of many false
ideas concerning foundation things. We

According to the medieval legend,
there was an entrance to purgatory OF
the island Of Tough berg, on the coast
of Ireland. II was simply the mouth
of common cave or cavern, but st.
Patrick Is suid To have built mon
opening with nm immense grntcd Iron
door. The place became widely known
as st. Patrick's purgntory." and II
was generally believed thut any ono
who had the courage to explore the
pit would be excused the trial OF pass
ing through the real purgatory after
death. The fame OF the place was
largely due 10 n poem written In 1853
by Henry of Saltery which pretended
to relate the experience Of Sir Oyayne
Mile, .ho had embraced the opportu-
nifty of eXplatlng his crimes In Its dark
some depths.
In the year HOG monk from Hol-
land visited the celebrated shrine and
afterward declared that what was
claimed for IL was "trnvesty on re-
llgIon" and that the 80 called "pur-
gntory" differed In no respect from
dozens OF other known cnvcrns." This
news WAS conveyed to the pope who
ordered the monastery destroyed and
the cavern closed up. This order was
carried out to the letter on st. Pat
rlcks day, 1897.

WhittIer's Hoyhood

To illustrate the fact that children
suffer intensely from cnuses which
their elders regard as trivial and which
they themselves arc inclined to laugh
at in later life Mr. Whittier once told
this story of his boyhood to II friend:
II was mt an ancient hillside farmyard
near lIavcrhill. In ascending this hill
his father was In the habit of relieving
his horse by walking. and Greenlcnf
was expected To walk also. 1t was Il
terrible trial to the boy, for II gander
would begin his warlllie threats rs soon
as he saw him. and In later life Whit
tier declared he could have marched
up to Il hostile battery without such II
sinking of the hcart as he felt when
ever he approached this harmless but
noisy fowl. If he dared to tell his
father of his agony of dread he could
have remained safely in the carriage
but the fear of being laughed Mt pre-
vailed over every other consideration.
Mr. Whittier thought this was the ex-
pcrlenCe of many children and that
parents should treat their apparently
petty troubles with more seriousness
than Is their custom.

CHINESE CARVINGS.
Artistic Ornaments Cut Out of Nuts
and Tiny Fruit Stones

and Tiny Fruit Stones.
The most curious objects which are
made subjects of the caryer's art in
China are the various nuts and fruit
stones. Among the latter class may be
named the stones of the olive, plum,
peach, cherry, and OF the former the
most common are made upon the shells
of walnuts and coeoanuts. These seeds
and nuts are collected with great care
and carefully cleaned and dried before
being taken TO the carver, who has an
invariuble standard of size, proportion,
weight. hardness, etc When every de
tail has been carried out TO the salts
faction of the artist nut or seed is
selected by the designer, who roughly
traces upon its surface an outline OF
the future picture. This Is handed over
TO apprentices who block out the de
sign by cutting through the lgenous
tissue along the lines drawn. The
crude carving Is again passed to the
designer, who sketches second and
more intricate series of outlines, when
II again goes forward TO the subordi-
mates, who cut out the Indicated chan
nels. After this the designer gives the
object its finishing touches, and the as
sistants prepare 1t for market by pol
IshIng, oilIng and waxing the carvings.
These nut and fruit stone carvings are
shown in the shape of buttons, watch
charms, sleeve links. earrings and
brooches. Collections of them strung
on silver, copper or gold wire are also
used rs bracelets, anklets, necklaces,
rosarIcs and official ornaments.
Tho carvings represented upon these
seed and nut ornaments are frequently
of very high order of conception and
display much of the carvers clever
ness and dexterlty. The writer has
seen single cherry seeds upon which
were plainly and artistieally outlined
dragon, two crickets, n cornflower and
bunch of grapes. On the larger seeds
and nuts are represented entire trees
and their fruits and leaves, vines with
leaves, flowers and vegetables attach
ed as well MS buildings. bridges, tow
ers. temples and fences. Among the
second group. which are usually com
posed principally of animal figures, the
horse, lion, tiger, elephant, camel and
bull are most generally represented
