"A Double Injury to God"

Christ raised three dead persons to
life; one, newly departed; another,
on the bier; a third, smelling in the
grave; to show US that no degree Of
death is so desperate that it is past
help.
My sins are many and great; yet,
If they we're more they are far below
the mercy of Him that hath RENTED
them, and the value of His ransom
that hath paid for them. A man
hurts himself most by presumption,
but we cannot do God a greater
wrong than to despair of forgive
ness. 1t is a double injury to God,
first, that we offend His justice by
SHINING, then, that we wrong His mer-
cy with despairing.-Bishop Hall.

Ore-Piacc Hat.

The hat that is truly a washable
one is the most practical of any in
lingerie style and has a certain dain-
ty charm that renders it extremely
effective. Here is n that is abso-
lutely simple yet smart and altogeth-
err chic in effect, and which can be
opened out fiat and Numbered with
out the least difficulty. In these days
when the young girls and the young
women all dress alike it is suited to
both, and can be worn at any age
from eight or ten to grown g%irlhood.
In the illustration the material Is nj
broidered linen, which Is trimmed
with little frills of Valenciennes lace
and with ribbon, but there are many
possibilities to be found in the de-
sign. A great many mothers like to
do the needlework themselves, and 1t

Alaska Farming.

One of Alaska's pioneer farmers is
]. D. Johnston, Of Bear Lake, near
Seward, who has taken up a home
stead and is putting it under cultiva-
tim. After two years work he can
show a comfortable, we'll built home,
a dozen acres plowed, thirty acres
seeded down for pasture and a con-
siderable part of his claim cleared.
He is successfully growing clover,
and has planted many varieties of
fruit trees, berry bushes and flowers,
most of which are thriving. He re-
ports that he finds much profit In

A wealthy Illinois farmer, one of a
number, perhaps, has a habit of In
vesting some Of his surplus money In
South Dakota chattel mortgage
paper. He recently visited one OF
the Lake County (South Dakota)
banks, where he is well acquainted,
and bought quite a bunch Of this
paper from the bank. In looking
over what they had to offer, he came
to a note secured by a mortgage on
eleven horses and n cow, all the
live stock owned by the farmer who
had given the note.
II won't touch it," he declared.

bank, "he is one Of the best fellows

And that ended it. The story is
true and the lesson plain.-Farm

knowledge Puffeth Up; Love Build
eth ID"

We may be able to tell how many
stars are in the Milky Way; we may
be able to count the petals of every
flower, and number the bones Of
every bird; but unless faith leads US
to a deeper understanding, a more
reverent comprehension of the sig
niicance of the universe, God can
no more be pleased with our knowl-
edge than the painter is pleased with
the fly which touches his picture with
it's ~feelers, and sips the varnish from
the surface, and dies without dream
ing of the meaning, thought, feeling,
embodied in the colors.-Van Dyke.

Universal Testimony.

The world globes itself in a drop
of dew, says Emerson. The micro
scope cannot find the animalcule
which is less perfect for being little.
Eyes, ears, taste, smell, motion; re-
sistance, appetite and organs of re-
production that take hold on eternity
all find room to exist in the small
creature. So DO we put u life into
every act. The true doctrine of ON
nipresence is, that God reappears
with all His parts in every moss and
cobweb. The value of the universe
contrives to throw itself into every
point. If the good is there, so is the
evil; if the affinity, so the repulsion;
if the force, so the limitation.-Home

Preached Sermon In Armor.

An English preacher believes IN
unconventional ways. One must do
SO, he says, to reach the people in re-
lieton. So he appeared on the stage
of the Crown Theatre, at Peckham,
England, arrayed in the full panoply
of a knight Grant of the time of the
Crusades, surcoat of chain mail, haul
berk, greaves, armored gauntlets,
sword and helmet, and preached from
Ephesians So: Put on the whole

Fashionable Gems.

OF the minor gems of which
the smartly-gowned woman now
makes much there is a translucent
green stone known as amazonite. It
is Of vivid and yet a soft green, and
purposely is worn on a platinum
chain to look as if detached, and to
make a brighter centre of color on a
white blouse. Rose quartz is another
of the same kind used for necklace
ornaments and hatpins. Aquamarine
in pale blue or green, once worn in
little brooches to fasten old.fashioned
rundown lace collars, is another
favorite, and, like the rose crystal,
Is made into beads, hatpins, pendants,
buttons and chains.

Marie Antoinette Blouse.

The pleated front frills Of lingerie
and lace, which have received the
name of Marie Antoinette, are very
frequently introduced upon tucked
blouses, and in this case a finish Of
the same lace used upon the frills is
applied to collar and cuffs, or perhaps
the neck is finished only with a band
and is meant to be worn with one of
the . popular embroidered collars.
Blouses of this type are not confined
to the separate blouse class, but are
being much used for little tub frocks,
In connection with a skirt of some
simple design.

Freaks Of Fashion.

One of the favorate freaks Of the
moment seems to be abnormally large
hatpins. These take the form of
weird Jumps of minerals. Enamel,
metal, china and glass have all been
used for the popular hatpin. Perhaps
the prettiest specimens are those of
maid tortoise shell. Horn, too, in
a lovely shade of green, is being
pressed into the service of combs,
slides and pins for the hair.
