The Leap Year Fetch.

Is there any warrant, one wonders,
for the so-called privilege which leap
year is supposed to grant to unmar'
ried women? And is there any au-
thenticated case Of girl having
awaited herself Of this chance of bring
ing man to the point? It is noteworthy
that the time allowed for her to do the
deed is strictly limited. So soon as
the feast of st. Valentine dawns her
chances vanish, SO that she has only
six weeks in which to take advantage
of her traditional right to propose
marriage. One fancies that if there
were any reason to suspect that this
privilege would be insisted upon, a
general exodus Of men would take
place on New Years eve. Even if he
gives women the suffrage, man will
never concede his right to propose
marriage, nor would he be worth the
asking if he did.-The Lady's Pictor-
ial

THERE lay the mantle at his feet
] where it had fallen.
AS Elisha lowered his eyes from the
heavens it was the first thing he saw.
Slowly he stopped and touched rever-
emily the rough garment of sheep
skin.
Elijah with God! His mantle left
behind!
Elisha did not at once lift the gar
ment from the ground. There was
something so sacred about it. He
knew it was for him. He understood
that it was the sign from God that his
prayer had been heard and that the
yearning of his heart was to be salts
fed, but an overpowering sense of the
great trust imposed upon him, and a
consciousness of personal unworthi-
ness coupled with that spirit Of true
humility which comes from close fell
lowship with God forbade any thought
less haste.
TO take Elijah's mantle-Oh, how
much it meant! Would he be equal
to the exalted trust? Would the man.
lie in his hands be to the honor or the
dishonor of God and the memory of
the great prophet upon whose Shout
ders it had rested?
AS he touched it reverently and
then drew back and lifted his eyes
to heaven in silent appeal there was no
thought of supersitious regard or idea
that in the garment itself rested any
supernatural power and charm. He
knew it was only sign, token
given him by God that he was to fill
the place left vacant by the transla-
ton of Elijah. And yet the life and
character of the one who had worn
the garment had become in, a sense
q part of the garment itself, so that
II was a constant and eloquent re-
minder of the way the prophet had
walked. the manner in which he had
wrought, and the higher, holier life
after which he had sought, so that it
was sacred with memories which
could but stimulate and spur on to the
highest and best endeavor.
AS Elisha stood thus, the deepening
influence of that miraculous hour
reaching to the utmost recesses of his
soul. there came the memory Of the
first time In his life when the mantle
of Elijah had touched him and he had
suddenly awakened to a conscious
ness of Gods call. Then had come an
elation, a consciousness Of self-impor-
lance, and a spirit of eager, self-confi-
dent purpose in the exalted place God
had called him to fill. And he had
been impatient for aggressive service.
But the years of discipline under the
faithful ministry of Elijah had
chastened his spirit and brought him
low before God, SO that God could ex.
alt him. And now Elijah had gone
and his mantle lay at his feet.
"Oh, God, be exclaimed, as the in
euences of that -FOUR were borne In

All coffee drinkers should be familiar

AS salt is necessary for soup, so coffee

HOW TO APPLY PAINT.

Greatest care should be taken when
painting buildings or implements
which are exposed to the weather. to
have the paint applied properly. No
excellence of material can make up
for carelessness of application, any
more than care in applying it can
make poor paint wear well.
The surface to be painted should be
dry and scraped and sandpapered
hard and smooth. Pure white lead
should be mixed with pure linseed oil,
fresh for the job, and should be well
brushed out, not flowed on thick.
When painting is done in this manner
with National Lead Company's pure
white lead Grade marked with 1.-THE
Dutch Boy Painter") there is every
chance that the job will be satisfac-
tory. White lead is capable of abb
solute test for purity. National Lead
Company, Woodbridge Building, New
York, will send a testing outfit free to
any one interested.

began to get better right away. They
cured me and have not been bothered
with the itching since, to amount to

swelled and began to break out. The

SERMoNETTE,

The sleepy saint never lie
ready to receive the special unc-
ton of Gods spirit.
Desire for special blessing
must be REINFORCED by the eff
tort which will bring one to the
place where the blessing can be
Bestowed.
Gods gifts of special power
and grace are never careIessly
bestowed.
1t is only he who asks who
receives; it is only the seeker
who finds; 1t is only to him who
knocks that the door of blessing
is opened.
Ask, seek, knock. These are
the progressive steps which lead
from desire to possession; from
aspiration to realization.
To ask is an admission of a
lack and a desire for the salts
flying of that lack; to seek is the
test of the genuineness and
quality of the desire; to knock
is the settled purpose of the
heart to obtain at any cost.
1t is only to the watchfuI eyes
of the saint that visions of
heavenly messengers are given;
it is only upon those whose feet
press persistentEy the pathway
of duty, no matter how footsore
and weary those feet may be-
come, that the descending
mantle of Gods special grace
falls.
Between promise and fulfill
ment, between the call and the
commission there are often
many hard, weary, trying years
of service which are essential
to preparedness to receive the
promise and execute the commits
sion. AS we contemplate the
inspiring picture of Elisha re-
ceivinc the mantle of Elijah,
thus betokening his exaItation
to the high place of service left
vacant by EIIjah's translation,
we excIaim: "HcW signaIly
blessed of God that such honor
should be placed upon him."
But we must not forget the
years OF waiting, of toll, of priva-
ton, of persecution, of suffering
through which he passed to
prove his fitness to receive the
hiah commission. That was a
great day in Elisha's life when
while blowing in the field at
Abel-mehoIah Elijah came and
called him to the office of
prophet In Israel. But there
was wide stretch of years be-
tween that call and its realiza-
tlon; stretch of years which
were to prove to be the school
Of discipline and training for the
great mission he was to fill. 1t
is ever thus. Gods call is
heard, the vision comes of great
service, and then comes the
struggle to attain the place
where the call and the vision are
60 have their fruition.
