GRAY Costume Most Effective. I

A gray costume of the gray that
is youthful in effect-not the stone
gray suitable for elderly women to
wear in a street costumes ex-
tremely serviceable, and can be made
most charming trimmed with braid
and with white lace in yoke and
sleeves. A narrow braided waistcoat
in white or some delicate color gives
q good contrast. The coat can be
either short or long. If short, it must
be on an elaborate model; in fact.
the elaborate model is the best to
choose under all circumstances. AS
the gown is intended for afternoon
or theater wear, it should be conse-
quently quite distinct in style and
effect from the more simple model
suitable for morning or street wear.
Chiffon cloth and chiffon, the new
weaves of soft silk or satin, as has
been said, are fashionable in waists
to be worn with the cloth skirts and
coats. Even lightweight cloth
waist seems too heavy under cloth
or fur coat, while houses are so
overheated now that it is not com.
Portable to be too heavily dressed. All
these materials can be found in
shades to match the cloth, and are
extremely satisfactory.

THE STORY

b'G SIOnYs
THE 80 days of mourning had ended,
and still Israel lay encamped in
the plain of Moab. The memory Of
those days made their hearts tender
and submissive. Moses words were
still fresh in mind, and confidently
and hopefully they looked forward to
the certainty Of their possession OF
the Promised Land.
But Joshua made no move. And the
people recognized him as the leader
In Moses stead, and they waited.
us 1t not time that Joshua was
pushing forward?" they asked one an
other. The days Of mourning are
ended. Why do we longer re-
main in this place? Here Is the
place OF sorrow, for 1t is here we
have lost our great leader. Here
is the place of encouragement, for the
blessing of Moses was spoken upon us
in this place. And now the Promised
land beckons us on. God will give
it us. Why do we not go forward?"
But Joshua remains d in seclusion
in his tent To him the great re-
sponsibi1ity was throwing him more
and more upon God, and during these
days OF mourning he sought the d.
vine presence. Over and over again
he studied the last words Of Moses,
seeking to know the perfect will Of
God concerning his people. Over and
over again he reviewed the past his
tory. All, how they had rebelled:
how they had murmured against
Moses; how they had suffered for
heir mistakes and sins. Just 10
years ago they had been upon the bor-
der land and had lost the blessed
privilege Of entering the Promised
Land because Of unbenef. Would they
now escape that ritfall? he asked
himself. He knew the task Of lead

his victories through him,
God adds this encouragement:
$50 will be, with thee"
There is always inspiration
In studying the lives of men
and women who have walked
close to God and wrought
nightly for him. Take the
life Of Paul, as told in the
Scriptures, and we learn what
the power and love and grace
of God can do in and through
one man. Take from modern
times the story Of Moody's
ministry, and we find what God
can accomplish through the
conservation Of man of or
dinary talents, but Of extraor-
dinary faith and obedience to
the divine will.
Over every such life we see
the writing Of God: "As Twas
with them." That was the
secret Of their power and sue
cess. God was with them, that
is, the life was SO brought into
harmony with God and Gods
will that he could use it. Can
we grasp the immensity Of the
thought OF Gods union with a
human life SO that he can say
Of it.: ~ was with him?" As we
read the record Of a Moody we
marvel at his power and sue
cess, but the explanation 10
that "God was with him."
And now what is the message
to your heart and mine? Let
us sit before God and eontem-
plate what he has wrought
through others, and then let us
listen carefully that we may
catch his words az he speaks
and says: $50 ! will be with
thee" Here is all the promise
that any soul needs. It involves
and includes everything. Il
means vital union with God. It
means Gods power and love and
grace flowing through my life
and your life to the blessing and
transforming Of the world

heart. God help Us to get near
to God, SO az to hear his voice.
The little word 1'then" in the
tenth verse is worthy Of empl1a-
sis, for it forms the important
link between the preparation for
an important work and the be-
ginning Of that work. When
God had spoken his message to !
Joshua, "then," and not till then,
did he take up the command Of
the people and direct the prep
aration for the forward move
ment to the Promised Land.
The qualification Of the utmost
importance in 4 leader is that
Of preparation to discharge the
duties that will devolve upon !
him. For these 80 days Of I
mourning and Immediately fol- {
lowing, Joshua understood that I
1t was by his hand that the chill :
dren Of Israel were to be led Z
out, and yet we find no over !
confidence, no haste to assume {
command, but a quiet waiting
for the enduement of power {
from on high, for divine wisdom )
and direction in taking the first Z
step. II those whom God has )
chosen to lead his people would {
