come to regard himself as something OF a
confidential adviser to the divine,
Early one morning the pastor awoke
feeling decidedly ill. After a futile at

"Julian, want you to go to my assistant.
Mr.. Blank, and tell him that, as am up-
well, he will officiate for me IN this
mornings service"
At this Julian demurred, and after some
argument, persuaded his master that he
would feel better if he officiated as usual.
This the latter did, and as predicted by
the darby, he did return home feeling
much better.

A Cycle Corps,

The use of the bicycle in Christian
1ndeavor work Is very common in
Great Britain and Australia, but far
less common in the United States. We
notice In the last number of the Chris
tan Endeavor News of South Aus
tralia the organization of still another
cycle corps. in the Burgess Memorial
church Of Adelaide. These enthusiastic
Endeavorers ride out into the country
twelve or fifteen miles to visit some so
ciety that needs the good cheer and in
SEPARATION they bring with them. After
their ride they are in just the right
trim for vigorous religious meeting,
and the ride back again over the hills
Is full of delight, with the added joy
Of duty done. This combination of
physical and spiritual exercise should
be adopted in the United States

1T is WELL TO REMEMBER.
That black cotton hose should be dried aud
ironed on the wrong side to prevent fading.
That calicoes should be washed in clean
water, dried in the shade and turned on the
wrong side to dry.
That black and white calicoes are benefited
by having handful of salt added to the rims
ing water.
That red tablecloths keep their color II a
little borax is added to the rinse water and
they are dried in the shade.
That it is not needful to boil white clothes
(unless very dirty and have the house filed
with steam every week.
That if the clothes are folded and laid in q
large rinsing tub and boiling water poured on
generously, it answers the purpose.
That blueing added to the rinse water does
not whiten the clothes, only covers dirt and
need not ever be used.
That letting clothes hang after they are dry,
or letting them hang through storm, or in
windy weather to Stat about, is not conducive
to long wearing or to help the good mans
pocketbook.
That a clothespin bag made Of bed-ticking
or something stout, in the form of pocket
with a slit on the front side, is much easier to
get at than a common bag.
That bed-ticking apron with large
pocket across the bottom is better than
either.
That a basket exposes the clothespins to
dust. and the clothes suffer accordingly.
That a clean apron worn while hanging the
clothes helps keep them clean.
That pair of white gloves or mttens are a
comfort to hands taken from hot suds to hang
clothes in zero weather; also a close-ftting
jacket and hood to keep one from catching
cold.
That the line, as soon as its duty is ended
should be reeled up and placed in bag until
next time.
That clothes when brought in should be
separated and folded at once; if allowed to
lie together, many wrinkles accumulate.
That clothes carefully folded and sprinkled
are half ironed.
That dish towels and common towels can be
ironed just as well in half the time. if folded
together once as if ironed singly.
That sheets folded across, bringing the wide
and narrow hens together. then folded again,
then ironed across both sides, are finished
quickly and look as well as if more time were
spent on them.
That pillow-slips should be ironed length
wise instead of crosswise if one wishes to
iron wrinkles out instead of in.
