Destruction is from within.
Every man builds the scaffoId.
ing on which Is executed the
monster Of his misdeeds.
Ahsalom 10 but n example
Of the myriads which the
worlds history affords Of the
fact that an evil life contains
the seeds Of its W undoing.
Pride which built up such q
splendid conspiracy, proved the
medium through which came de-
feat and final destruction.
A man, after all, Is only as
strong as his weakest point, and
notwithstanding Absslom's rare
genius and clever scheming, he
fell an easy victim to that de-
sire for magnIficenee and dis
play which had been a ruling
passion of his life. A night cam
paign, swift and full Of hardship
and danger, did not appeal to
him, but the leading Of q mag
nificent army In a spectacular
campaign won his approval and
led him to defeat and death.
That is about all there is to
be said concerning Absaion. As
we see him in that last igno-
ninious hour how the mask is
torn from his beautiful face and
form, and tire hideous character
which he had grown within
stands revealed! A dishonorabie,
disobedient, Goddess son going
down In disgrace to a grave dug
in the woods, while the magnifi-
cent mausoleum which he had
erected, with a statue Of himself
stands empty, and, in silent
mockery, condemns the folly Of
mans planning apart from the
will and purposes Of God.
In this Incident 10 strikineiy
emphasized the old, familiar
adage: "Man proposes and God
disposes."
David realized this, and as he
fled from Jerusalem, a broken
hearted father, he lifted his eyes
to heaven and said: "if ! shall
find favor in the eyes Of the
Lord, he will bring me again,
and shew me both the ark and
its h%abitation. But If he (God)
thus say, ! have no delight in
thee; behold, here am |, let him
do to me as seemeth good unto
him"
Here was both the spirit Of
true repentance for the sins
which had come into his WI
life, and whose fruitase was to
be found in the present wicked
plottings Of his son; and whole
hearted submission to the SOW
ereign will Of God.
And both the repentance and
the submission find their inspira.
ton and strength In the faith
which laid hold upon God in the
dark hour and chung to him az
only the helpless soul can cling
which is reduced to the last ex.
tremity and sees that only God
can deliver.

PLAIN TALKS WITH WOMEN.
The Lazy Selfish Wife Is often the
Cause Of Breakup.


A man in the train was talking to a
friend, says Louise Satterthwaite In
the Philadelphia Telegraph. He swore
several times to begin with Then he
went OH to say:
We'll, who could blame him? Have
you seen his wife. p
The friend said no.

have children around the house for
any money; says they are great nui-
sances. / know Billy used to laugh
when they were first married and she
would make this speech. That was fif.
teen years ago. Then she is lazy; oh,
yes, l know she is. She never took
any interest in anything he likes. She
was always great eater too.
'She would never walk, but always
rode everywhere; she would not go

cause it was such a nuisance to uress
everything got to be a nuisance except
taking it easy"
There was I, pause.
Look at her now," went on the
voice with great vehemence. Fat as
a feather bed, grumpy and disagree
able; absolutely selfish and lazy.
Billy is nothing at all to her only the
man who pays the bills. She sleeps
half the day and then sits on tie orch
in the evenings with not a word to
throw at the dog except to growl at
Billy for his nasty old pipe, as she
calls it.
For my part, it's wonder to me
ne stayed straight so many years.
Now this little girl he is tangled up
with was in his Office for four years;
a perfect little hustler, bright, sunny
and energetic; she thinks Billy is the
whole show; he thinks she ISL guess,
and there's another good man gone to
the devil, everybody will say, but I
say it is all the fault of his wife"
Then there was some more swearing
in both voices about lazy, selfish wo.
men in general, a station was called
and they got off.
But what they had said found it's
echo in the heart of any an involun-
tary listener.
The fat, lazy wives who will not
have children-whc has not seen
them?
The wives who care not one thing
about their husbands except that he
provides the wherewithal so that they
can continue to live easy, pampere6,
pussycat lives.
The wives who never read nor think.
nor work, nor keep either mind or
body alive; who take no interest at all
in any of their husbands work or
play; who think because their hus.
bands are married to them that all is
said and DONE
These wives should not be surprised
when they awake up some fine day to
the fact that their husbands have

ROSE BEDS OF ENGLAND.
Cult of the Garden High in the Fa-
vor of Nobility There.

English women, in garden, know
full well their value as setting, says
the Bystander. Indeed, the cult of
the garden with a large staff to do
''all the dirty work') is a pose high
in favor with the great ladies of ing
land. In the rose time-a time
when every one" is in town-English
gardens are, perhaps, at their best.
1t is roses, roses all the way-"Peu
de chooses, mails roses" is the motto
of Lady Warwick's dream-lovely rose
garden at Eaton lodge and Lady
Gerard at Eastwell park, her sister,
Lady Algernon Gordon-Lennox "a
clever landscape gardener), at Brough-
ton castle, Lady Downe at Dingley,
and Lady Falmouth at Maidstone, all
have celebrated and yaryingly beauti-
full rose gardens.
Over in Ireland Lady Ashtown has
just been taking numerous prizes at
! the Galway county show for her roses
and begonias. Her beautiful home,
WOODLANDS, is famous for it's lovely
gardens, and Lady Ashtown, who re-
sides there almost entirely, is a keen
and practical gardener Lord Ash
/ town, it will be remembered, is one
of the protected landlords. He owns
over 10000 acres in Counties Water
ford and Galway, and his house and
person are always under police guard.
At Dromoland, Lady Inchiquins
much-loved home, violets flourish as
they flourish nowhere but in the sis
ter isle; and at Dereen, Lord Lans-
downe's seat in County Kerry, flow
ers and shrubs bloom in tropical mag
nificence. Back in England, Lady
Helen Vincent at Esther, and Lady
Grosvenor at Saighton, have gardens
which bespeak thought and affection
in their making. At Esher place
Lady Helen Vincent has scented
garden, where bloom only flowers of
fragrance-roses, heliotrope, sweet
peas, mignonette, verbena; kitchen
garden, with sundial and closed in
with hedge of yew; and a cottage
garden, full of old-world flowers ana
herbaceous borders. At Saighton
Grange Lady Grosvenor has half a
dozen gardens in one. There is a
lavender garden, just now a hewilder-
ing maze of sweetness; a bulb gar
den, in the spring brilliant blaze
OF welcome color; a paved garden, in
remembrance of the days when Saigh-
ton was a monastery, and a saints

ed with fowers-veronica, lily and

Christians. The policy of his little son.
AbdulAziz, has been much more lib
eral, and from the western view point
more enlightened, and is. sad to relate,
one OF the contributing causes to the
present alarming situation. He recent

Dor improvements should be under

who were engaged upon the work.
In making cor 0essions to the Euro
pean spirit OF progress and enterprise,
for which his people are not ready, the
unlucky and probably most incapable
young sultan has raised a storm which
may cost him his throne. To-day, IL
he stands with his people, he is threat
ened with foreign expedition, while
II he stands by the treaty he runs even
greater and nearer danger at the hands
of the various pretenders to the
throne. by whose activity the sultan's
life has been made very miserable
ever since. or almost ever since. BY a
harem conspiracy and the weakness
of his father the young prince was
called TO the difficult post of ruling
the Moors.
Present Ruler Unpopular
Abdul Azizs accession to the throne
was a most unpopular one, and this
fact probably accounts for the fact
that early in his reign he surrounded
himself with foreigners who. with
some exceptions. were not generally
men OF high type-rope walkers,
photographers, balloouists, and sleight-
| of'hand men were the representatives
| of western civilization who for a long
time appealed most powerfully to the
young sultan's appreciation OF our cul-
ture, In view OF the rising tide OF dis
