and is putting them in to practice,
every day, and is therefore receiving
untold good from the child-culture
lessons. Who else is doing 1t?
| God does not place us in a posi-

prevail in filling. We may not please
ourselves, our friends or our neigh
bOrs. let us be ever SO Industrious
about it, but we may please God.
He knows exactly what we can do
before He gives us the work, but
often we attempt to do something
which He did not choose for us. For
instance, He knew would not make
a textbook scholar, and therefore
did not make me college-bred, but
/ He did know ] would make very
good student Of human nature, and
gave me excellent opportunities for
pursuing this most interesting study.
4 He knew would never make socie-
ty woman, SO He did not embarrass
me by causing that position to be
/ thrust upon me. But He did know |
would pick up many good lessons Dy
associating with people OF culture,
travel and practical experience, as
well as those whom crude nature had
held SO strongly in her grip, that no
opportunity for self-cultivation had
been given. He knew ! would never
make a leader, SO He thoughtfully
/ made me content to sit by while 9TH
ers planned, and gave me a desire
to lend hand in what ! could to
sustain the appointed leader.
4 Sometimes an expression or cou-
4 plet, or name or sign, applied to
something, means SO much more than
the mere lettering and wording. For
I instance, you pick up the book Lay
il ender and Old Lace" You read the
title, Lavender and Old Lace, and
as soon as your intellect grasps the
words, you almost see some rich,
beautiful, old time lace, carefully
laid away, with sweet, garden law
| ender neatly laid among it's folds, the
odor of which seems almost to greet
you, delightfully."-, and you sit down
and eagerly read, with pleasant
sensation, of sweet memories, OF
some dear aid lady, quantity attired
in pretty, old-fashioned silk, and
} dainty laces, with the odor of laven-
} der, delicately pertaining all. Truly
lavender and old lace, is suggestive
, of something sweet, pretty, nay
beautiful, and almost sacred, that we
. leave reluctantly, but must hasten
on to more material things.
y; Stony Point is picturesque old
revolutionary battlefield that delights
the traveller as she sails up the ma.
jestic Hudson river She sees 1t fal
l in advance of the steamer, which Is
a floating palace, and gazes expect
7 antly as the vessel nears the pretty
4 green promontory jutting out into the
, deep, placid waters. Soon she sees
| something big, and hideous ant
! white, perched on it's pretty hillside
| She says, What is this thing thai
] makes such an ugly spot on what
2 God and nature have made so beau
t tiful, and around which history has
/, woven SO much interest" Still, it is
pretty and peaceful, her enrapturt
: continues, until by nearer approach
: she reads the sign, ''Schenks' Liver
Pills."
Such an ugly cold blast is sem
through her thoughts by the sug
} gestion of torpid liver. OF all the
5 disagreeable, bad, ugly things II
: your nature, that billiousness brings
to the surface, for which the doctor
t prescribes blue mass and calomel
. and tells you to stay in bed unit
you get rid of this bad taste in youl
: mouth, and wrinkles in your other
: wise smooth temperament.
D Now this smile would like to the
) club woman who is refined, intelli
gent, educated, and entertaining
, who seemingly has all things at hel
I command, and would respond will
. sweet grace. But once you get IL
) close range with her everyday life
I you see big sign board upon which
| he who runs may read, in ugly black
t letters, Beware of my temper" u
it may be it is discomfort or jealousy
! that sends q torpid liver chill cours
! ing down your spine, and you think
, here is the usefulness of beautiful
speciment of Gods handiwork, ruin
r ed by fault that could be so easily
> cured.
Let us hunt out these hideous hin
/ ORANGES that keep our better nature.
! from asserting themselves, by beau

Those who visited the Portland
: Exposition. stopped to see a promi

suggestive of progress, prosperity

you feel good, and glad you were liv,

: happy and read it again. And per
} haps, called the attention Of youl
( friends to it. 1t was Watch Taco

You see it has ringing, glad

it, with just suggestion of Wit thai
makes you feel glad you saw IT; and
+ you will remember, it proved so con

came slogan that was of great ben

) Now, let us club women pull dowr
: the sign, "Schenks' Liver Pills" and
: all kindred ones of disagreeableness
( that are covered over with thorns and
) brambles, and mars our otherwise
