The Sinners Refuge.

1T Is a sweetly comforting
thought, said Mr.. Rockefeller, at a
New York prayer meeting, "that
the requirements OF God are only ac.
cording as lie has given US ability
to do"
This Is the popular refuge OF the
sinner, and Mr.. Rockefeller shows
that he Is pretty human In crawling
behind 1t at convenient times, like
the rest OF us.
We sin. We take contemplate

blame because lie didn't endow us
with the ability necessary to sue.
cessful resistance OF the temptat ion.
We are greedy, or mean. or licen-
tious, simply because God didn +
make US strong to resist. There Is,
then, no such thing as free will.
We do not sin, for God Is to blame
for not making and keeping US good.
1.-THE requirements OF God 70 We
educate, elevate and hire, ut high
cost, the best and most eloquent
men OF our times to tell US what
God wants, and they betog us on the
subject Of justice. Mr.. Rockefeller
has his idea OF 1.-THE requirements. {"
II he has been rapaci6us and greedy,
II he has niercilessly wrecked bust
ness and homes and gripped the
throat Of the weak with the mailed
hand OF oppression and suppression.
he can perhaps be sincere In telling
the prayer meeting that he has been
generous, loving, liberal and helpful
as the Lord gave him capacity for
being, and too, with perhaps quite
as much sincerely as possesses
some of us less conspicuous sinners
who pour down strong liquor and
make the excuse that our appetite
was too strong for us.
Mr.. Rockefeller probably not only
believes that In giving away one
dollar In thousand, he Is doing all
that the Lord gave him ability to do,
but that the ability to get together
hundreds OF millions was given him
for the purpose OF getting them to-
gether, 1t Is, indeed, ''sweetly COM

Guessing Distances.

Almost everyone knows that the
head of an ordinary horse is as long
as a barrel, but not many persons
would have thought it SO without mea-
surfing. When you have a rainy day
or dull evening try a distance guess
ing contest. Let each player have
pencil and paper and write down the
list OF things to be measured. All have
a voice in making up the lists. Some
one suggests the heiSht of the table.
All then write height OF liable" and
each puts opposite his g.ess of the
height in feet and inches. In the same
way other objects are selected and the
distances guessed--width of door, ii.
mansions Of room, length and height
of martelpiece, distance around a cir
cular stand, distance around Clare's
neck or Jacks head, dimensions of
hooks and boxes, hejghth of chairs,
pictures and vases.
Finally the papers are signed and
exchanged, and some one with tape
line or rule measures the various dis
tances. The best guess for each object
is marked by cross, the poorest by a
cipher. 1t will be amusing to see how
wild some of the guesses are.

THE FAT DRUMMER.

At dinner given in New York in
Walter Damrosch's honor, the must

How true that is" said Mr. Dam
rosch's neighbor. Fat poets, fat
painters, fat musicians, fat dramat-
lists don't exist. do they?"
II don't believe they do" said Mr..
Damrosch. Then, smiling, he went
on:
did you ever hear of the Dubuque
drummer who was discharged"
No; never" said the neighbor.
We'll" began Mr. Damrosch,
there was a drummer m a Dubuque
hand who had drummed faithfully for
over twenty years. He was never
absent from his post of duty, he was
never late or careless, and never, in
fortissimo passages, did he spare him
self in his attacks upon the drum.
Nevertheless, the leader of the
band took this faithful servitor aside
one day and said:
p" Brown, I'm sorry, but shall
have to dispense with your services
ut seemed to the unfortunate drum
mer that the bright sunlight turned a
gloomy black.
'Why?' he gasped

LUNCHEON FOR BRIDESMAIDS.

maiden.hajd ferns making an attrac

boxes may hold bonbons at the places,

tied about with ribbons and filled
with candy, will also be appropriate
writes Maorie March in Housekeeper
AT such a luncheon there should De
merry girlish fun, and tests for the
future of those present other than the
bide. 4 cake sould be served with
the dessert, containing the traditional
ring an coin and thimble,, prophetic
signs for those receiving them. An
other merry feature would be to have
bot tea poured by the bride during
the dessert course, th ! teapot having
10 strainer. A little list Of mean.
irgs" of tea leaves in a cup can east
iy be made up beforehand, and the
bride can turn fortune teller IN a
unique way.
A ceremony to inda,ge in after The
luncheon is to have twelve lightel

PLAYING Scout.


Boys ami girls who live in the coun-
try AMI those from the city who will
visit in the country this summer.
may have great sport playing scout.
The only thing necessary is patch of
woods.
Any Of the Counting out" plans may
be used to see who will be Indians and
those VINO will be scout. Those who
are counted out are Indians. and the
last one left is the scout.
When everything is read the scout
hides his eyes TO count 200, while the
Indians scamper on through the woois
and hide. 1t must be agreed, of
course, that no one shall go beyond
certain limits.
The scout may set out on his search
with a shout and a rush. or he may
steal along noiselessly, hoping to sur
prise the Indians. To be caught
an Indian has only to be seen. The
scout calls his name and the Indian
must come in as a prisoner. However,
a prisoner may do all he can to throw
the scout off the trail.
When all the Indians have been
spied, the one who was caught first
must be scout. and he hides his eyes
ami counts while the others run away
as indians. Each game starts at the
spot where the last Indian is captured.
A whole half day may be delightfully."-
spent in the woods at this game.
