expectations have failed. our plans
have miscarrisd, and the time spent
has been practically thrown away.
But If we had locked to a higher wis.,
dom than OWE, if We had been
cbedient to a leadership which was
unerring and faultless. we would have
done differently, We would have writ
ten a different record, times pages
would have had a different story to
tell. All. If the prayer, so teach u.s.

Of dependence upon Gcd. we would

Before to-morrow's close-loeked gate

HOW often one hears the words
III spoken with regretful sigh: If
| had more time, | would DO so and
so,'' referring to some neglected duty,
some unimproved opportunity, some
kindly word Or service left undone.
And the soul would unconsciously seek
refuge in the thought that the fault
lay not within the individual, but was
c"hargeable to time itself. But we
have all the time there is. We have
all the time which God intended we
should have. 1t is not a case Of the
changing of time, a retarding or a has
tening of its passage. 1t is a matter
CT the use to which time is put. God
does not come to you and to NE and
ask US how many hours We had in
the day, but how did we use those
hours. And He from Whose hands
the hours have come with such faith
full regularity is the One to Whom
we must render our accounting. l
90 not think it is possible for man
il and Of himself to decide how best
he can use the time which is given
him. He needs Divine guidance in the
use Of that which God treasures so
highly as to give it with frugal
hand, moment by moment. Fenelon
has said that God has done this that
He might impress man with the worth
OF time. He never gives US two mo-
rents together, nor grants us a sec
ond till He has withdrawn the first,
still keeping the third in His own
hands, so that we are in perfect IN
certainty whether We shall have it or
not" And for the right use of that
precious moment we need to pray: $50
teach US to number our days that we
may apply OIL hearts unto wisdom"

have received much hospitality at this
club. and in order to show their appre-
citation Of the kindness received wrote
recently to the club committee asking
them whether they would accept a piece
Of silver plate or a picture OF Kaiser
Wilhelm
The members cried out with one voice.
''The plate" but the committee showed
better taste and told a white lie" They
accepted with much pleasure the por-
trait.
When the Kaiser heard Of Il. Indirect
Is. he was very Indignant, rs The en-
bassy mad not asked his permission.
With characteristic energy William ufsn
took the matter IN his own hands. He
wrote TO the club that he would send
them his portrait as honorary colonel OF
a British cavalry regiment, but here the
members struck" and the committee
Informed the Kaiser az politely as pos
sibIe that they would prefer the por-
trait as a white cuirassicr OF the German

And so the portrait IN a very inferior

BY MARQUIS DE CASTELLANE.

PARIS. Dec. 2.-The visit which the
President Of the French republic re-
Gently made TO the King and Queen of
Portugal has given rise to strong emo
tions among the members of our old
aristocracy. Queen Amelia is French
princess, the sister of the Princess of
Orleans, pretender TO the French throne
and yet by strange fatality she has
been destined to receive and do honor
TO the man who has usurped her
brother's place.
The young Queen, though doubtless
realizing the awkwardness of the situa-
iion. showed such charming grace, such
perfect cordiality In her reception Of NJ
Loubet, that the visit OF the President
10 Portugal has been voted by the mem
bers Of his suite. who have accompanied
him upon his various sojurns as guest
of European sovereigns. to have been in
every way the most enjoyable.
From the point of view of brilliancy
alone the Presidents reception in Lisbon
outshone THAI accorded him by any
other capital. This is all very fine for
NJ. Loubet but il is a painful subject
for the contemplation OF our loyal roy
alists. and for all her graciousness must
have been a trying experience for the
daughter of our former kings.
Funeral of Dowager.
The funeral of the Dowager Duchess
of Luynes, which took place at the
Chateau of Dampierre- assumed the pro-
portions of manifestation of the aris-
