Tho "Wronq Box"

made in a building used by the Brit
ish Women's Temperate Association.
To everybody's horror, chocolate
box was found which smelt OF Wh1s'

we deeply regret, as it would have
provided a new and thrilling sensation
but we gather that the blame was
thrown upon the maker, the pur'
chaser remaining exempt. Ladies can
not, as we agreed here and should be
agreed everywhere, always ask What
chocolate contains. It is the bound
en- duty of q confectioner, whenever
he sells to lady who looks as though
she might belong to the British Wo-
mems Temperance Association. TO
point out gently but firmly, that the
chocolate she proposes to buy is not
free from alcohol: Freely and fully
we absolve the owner Of the box in
question, but would point cut that
her fellow members appear to have
ignored a rather obvious duty In the
circumstances. They should have
banded together, with flag If pos
sible, and paid visit of denunciation
and protest to the wicked confect1oner
and the still more wicked manufac'
turer.-St. James Gazette.

Of Thee; Thou only knowest what l
need, Thou lowest me better than 1
know how to love myself. o Father,
give to Thy child that which he himself
knows not how to ask. dare not ask
either for crosses or consultations; I
simply present myself before Thee, I
open my heart to Thee. Behold my
needs which I know not myself; see
and do according to Thy tender mercy.
Smite or heal, depress me or raise me
up, I adore all Thy purposes without
knowing them: I am silent; I offer MY
self in sacrifice; I yield myself to Thee;
I would have no other desire than to
accomplish Thy will. Teach me to
pray. Pray Thyself in me. Amen
