Busy Summer for Mortified.

The prospectus OF the Mortified Sum.
mer Conferences for the season OF 1905 is
strongly indicative Of how the great work
OF centralizing Christian activity con.
tinues to be developed. For twenty-five
years the plan OF twining together the
threads or missionary enterprises, Congre-
gational and Baptist, Methodist and
Presbyterian, domestic and foreign,
national and International, has been the
starting point OF the Mortified gather
ings. The conferences have stood for all
that was effective in the Masters service;
UNCONVENTIONAL ties have been forgotten;
local sympathies ignored; and pretty
interests sacrificed in the supreme desire
to combine forces for the most efficient
service in the common cause. This has
been the standard which is to govern its
future. Visitors are not drawn thither
primarily because it is beautiful mount
tain town, nor because it has the facilities
for huge gatherings, but rather because
it is the rallying place for the many lines
OF religious work, The spirit of inclusive
ness is characteristic of the program for
this summer.
The season opens with student gath
ering for young men June 80 to July 81
for the purpose of deepening the spiritual
life in Americancolleges and training stu
dents to lead in organized religious
work. 1t is followed Immediately by a
parallel gathering for young womer
July II to 20), which aims to do fol-
young women what the Student Confer
ence does for young men. Two days
later July % to 30), the only purely
technical school for Sunday School work
ers in America begins it's second annua
session. At the same time July a tC
81, the Women's Boards Of Foreign
Missions of the United States and Can
ada hold an interesting interdenomina
tional gathering. Less than week after
the General Conference of Christian
Workers august + to 2Ol, the bes
known and perhaps the most infu
entail assembly of the summer, vii

ers from all parts OF the globe. few 0

Only q Baby.

Only baby, sweet and fair,
With a mass of softest golden hair,
laughing mouth, dimpled chin,
A heart that is pure as snow within.
Sent from the realms of Heaven above,
To bask in the JOY of a mot hers love.
Only baby, who claims your care,
Your daily toll, and evening prayer,
little soul to train Alright
A heart to learn the meaning of right,
Two little feet to romp and play,
For thee to guide in the narrow way
Only baby, but oh so dear,
That the heart is chilled with the awful fear
That the little one may go before,
And tread the paths where it trod of yore,
Before it lett its rest above
To bask in the JOY of mothers love.
Only baby, little child
By turns wilful, weak and wild,
But dearly beloved, despite its pranks,
And the care bestowed without word Of
thanks,
For the baby dwells in the mothers heart,
And not even death the bond can part.

Skin Diseases

are wholly confined to the epidermis or ex-
ternal skin, and between the inner and ex-
ternal skins there are no blood vessels, hence
the disease cannot come from the blood.
Barrels of blood medicines can have no eff
feet on these skin eruptions for such medi-
cines cannot reach the seat of the trouble.
This class of diseasesis caused by germ or
parasite which burrows into the external
skin. there it lives, thrives and multiplies,
and the inflammation they set up causes the
awful itching and burning sensation.

The Teachers Responsibility.

1t is, of course, a mere truism to
say that the stability and the
future welfare OF our institutions
of government depend upon the
grade OF citizenship turned out
from out public schools. And no
body OF public servants, no body
of individuals associated in pri-
vate life, is better worth the adj
miration and respect of all who
value citizenship at its true worth
than the body composed of the
teachers in the public schools
throughout the length and breadth
of this Union. They have had to
deal with citizenship in the raw,
and to turn out something like a
finished production, | think all
of us who endeavor to deal with
that citizenship in the raw in our
homes appreciate the burden and
the responsibility Theodore
Roosevelt.
