no doubt If we do this intelligently
and sympathetically, we shall need

The dreariest lot has openings for
magnificent charity and sacrifice.
The most prosaic calling, duly inter-

eternal recompense.
There ought not to be in any hui
man life servility and dependence; no
painful need or vulgar wretchedness
should embitter and degrade; drudg-
cry proper, beggarliness, meanness
and pauperism form no part OF God 8
ordination for any man, and there
is much seriously wrong when such
state of things is possible. Our
Lords life was just as far from vul-
gar poverty as from vulgar greatness,
sordid wealth, or selfish gaiety.
None need be ashamed of the COM

WISE WORDS.

Most of difficulties are neglected
duties.
It takes an uplifted eye to keep a
clean heart.
When ambition weds avarice as
piration dies.
No man can be great until he can
see greatness.
Living for men is the best evidence
Of loving God.
He can not pray for himself who
prays only for himself.
The evil we remember is surpassed
by the good we forget.
It takes some frost to ripen the
best fruits of the heart.
The weeds of prejudice grow best
in an intellectual desert.
If there is nothing heavenly here
there is no heaven there.
Inclination always furnishes the
most convincing argument.
Watch your works and your wings
will take care of themselves.
Every choice in life is an impact
that determines the shape of char
acter.
No man ever succeeded in walking
one way when he was looking an
other.
If you sell your soul you will never
be able to make enough to buy 1t
back.
You always can measure man by
the things that provoke him to mer-
riment.
You can always get fine feathers
with money, but a fine face you can
not buy.
The preacher who trembles before
the great has great cause to tremble
for himself.
There is no vital power in a relig-
ion you can pigeonhole into one day
of the week.
Many a man mistakes a stock OF
pious quotations for riches of relig-
ious character.
The ideal that is only dream and
never a deed is always detriment
to the character.
Men of business will be in the
church when the church gives them
some business there.
Many who think they are defend
ing the faith are only. barrieading
truth out of their lives, -

WOMEN INVESTORS.


The United States Patent Office IS
not a repository for masculine ideas
alone, says the St. Louis Republic.
The doors of that institution were
scarcely hung on their hinges when
the Government swung them wide
open to the first woman inventor who
appeared for admission. They have
been open ever since.
According to the records, that go
back to 1890, Mary .Kies, who OBJ
tanned a patent in 1909 for "straw
weaving in silk Or thread" was the
Eve of American woman inventors.
Miss Kies is followed by twenty
like hers, do not appear on the Off
cial list, and though the majority
of the patents granted them are
"gleaned from the nursery and kitch-
en-" there are others of wider range.
One, for instance, is for Extracting
fur from skins of animals and max
ing it into yarn" Another is for
"straw-cutting and fodder" while
Elizabeth Dram comes to the front
with a globe for the teaching of
geography" -.
Florida claims the first woman in
ventor whose address is given. Her
name was Adelena S. Goodman, and
she obtained a patent for broom
brushes in 1S49.
Almira M. Cole, of Windham, Me-,
was our first woman inventor to
forge beyond the confines of domes-
ITCHY into the fields of men. Nearly
half century ago she embodied one
of her clever ideas into glass and
wood and got patent for mounting
fluid lenses"

Overcome Evil With Good.

"Be not overcome of evil, but over
come evil with good. Aim at that
which is good, cleave to that which
is good; occupy your time with that
which is good, fill your thoughts with
that which is. good, and the assaults
of evil will have lost half their power.
An earnest employment, a steady
purpose in life, a diligent use of
time-these are an irresistible pan
oply against vice, these strike out of
the DEVILS hands his worst imple-
ments Of temptation
You will remember that terrible
truth in one of the Lords sternest
parallels, about the evil spirit return
ing to the house whence he came out,
and finding it empty, swept, and
garnished; then gcetL ne and taAeth
to himself seven other, spirits more
wicked than himself, and they enter
in and dwell there, and the last state
of that man is worse than the first
What does that empty, swept, and
garnished" mean? 1t means that if
your heart is not pre-occupied with
good, it will be invaded by evil.
Or, beware of idleness in its every
form, idle representations, idle talk,
idle habits, idle thoughts, these are
the certain ruin of the soul. The
laborer who stands idle. in the mar
ket-place is ever ready to be hired
in the DEVILS service. The worm of
sin gnaws deepest into the idle heart.
Pre-occupy your heart with good;
pre-occupy your time with honest in
dustry, and you are safe. Whatever
things are true, honest, just, pure,
lovely, of good report, if. there be any
virtue, any praise, think on these
things. Evil can as little encroach on
the domain of good as darkness can
force it's way into the circle of radi-
ance which a lamp filings into the
night. Remember that since all sin
begins in thought, if your thoughts
are safe then you are safe.-F. w.

Coins We're Hidden For 1900 Years.

Coins Were Hidden For 1920 Years.
A hundred specimens of the silver

Gently in lower Egypt, have been
brought to New York. They were
found in an earthen jar hidden in
the side of an ancient we'll, where
they had laid undisturbed for over
2,200 years. These pieces are very
thick, and the silver is of great pur-
ity They correspond in weight to
the half dollar.
The diverse bears the head of
Hercules in lions skin. The re-
verse shows Zeus, seated in chair,
and all bear the name of Alexander
in Greek. Many interesting mono
grams and mint marks were found
in this lot, and some of the pieces
bore the Greek word, for the mint
marks, designating the towns or cities
where they were struck, were the
forepart of ram, bow, a warrior,
a pillow, a helmet, and so on.

high relief, so high that the modern

pieces without their tumbling over

Glass Telegraph Poles.

At Grossalmerode, town near
Cassel, Germany. factory has recent
ly been established for the manufac-
ture or glass telegraph and telephone
poles.
The glass mass of which the poles
are made is strengthened by inter-
lacing and INTERVENING with strong
wire threads. One Of the principal
advantages of these poles, it is said,
would be their use in tropical coun-
tries, where wooden poles are soon
destroyed by the ravages of insects,
and where climatical influences are
ruinous to wood. The imperial post
department, which has control of the
