Under modern conditions, capital
and labor are as dependent on each
other as the two wings of bird; and
both are as dependent on administra-
ton as are the birds wings on its
brain. Justice demands that each of
the three should receive It's due share
OF the product. Industrial war is as
contrary to economic principles as to
Christian principles. as unnecessary as
It Is costly. There are many instances
OF good relations between employers
and employees continuing uninterrupted
for a generation. But mutual conf
dence and goodwill cannot exist where
either is trying to get the advantage
of the other. Generally speaking, says
the Homiletic Review, capital and la
Dor are each organized to secure the
largest returns to itself. Their object
ought to be to render the largest serv-
ice to society in general and to each
other In particular. In one word, a.
dustry needs to be Christianized.

Is the position taken by President Eliot

The president Of Harvard rejoices in
the spread of sentiment for arraigning

the little one, but he Is by no means
optimistic as to the rate of progress

crete results. There is now no question
OF the strength of public demand, says
the Baltimore American, and the abili-
ty Of the people to enforce their de-

in relation to trust evils with the same
rigor that the statutes relating to dis
honesty In any form are enforced. DR..
Eliot has no reason to be pessimistic.

Scripture Authority-The Book OF
Esther.
Personal History OF Esther.-It II I'm
possible to identify Esther with any
queen mentioned in profane history. and
II IL most probable that she was favor
.te concubine to whom the title OF queen
was accorded. The name Esther is Per-
sian. being the translation OF the He
brew name Of Hadassah. She was beau
tiful Jewish maiden whose ancestor Kish
had been among the captives led away
from Jerusalem by ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS when
Jehoiachim was taken captive. She was
an orphan, and was brought up by her
cousin. Mordecai, who had an ONCE In the
household OF Ahasuerus, king of Persia,
and dwelt at "Shushan the palace"
When Vashti was dismissed from being
queen, and all the fairest virgins of the
Kingdom had been gathered at Shushan
for the king to make choice of sue
cessor to her from among them. the
shoice fell upon Esther. The king was
sot aware. however. of her race and
Iarentage, for Mordecai had straightly
charged her that she should not reveal
It. So It was that when Haman the Aga
Cite made representations to the king
that the Jews scattered through his
fealm were a pernicious race, he gave
Hannah full power and authority to kill
them all. young and old. women and chill
dren, and take possession OF all their
property. The means taken by Esther
to avert this great calamity from her
people and her kindred are fully related
IN this Book Of Esther.

cation, and surrender to q high

Care Of the Eyes.

II is always essential to remember
that the eyes. like any other part OF
the body, get tired, and they require
rest from time to time. Make II a poiD.
to see that this rest is given them. II
the seamstress or the business woman
uses her eyes constantly for long
hours, let her jealousy guard the need
ed respite before any further close ap-
plication be attempted. Bathing the
eyes In lukewarm water is very COM
forting after a strain. II is also well
to battle the eyes in lukewarm water
az soon as possible after arising. Avoid
close work with the eyes before break
fast. Be careful not to indulge the
habit Of getting the work too near the
eyes. See that you keep an erect pos
ture and that the natural distance Is
preserved; II there be difficulty In pre-
serving 1t, the eyes need attention. 1t
Is wrong to use the eyes In cross
light. and never use them In fading
light. Too many women sew or read
In the twilight, postponing the lighting
of the gas or lamp for one reason or
another. For lamp, says the New
York Weekly, the light from kero-
sene-burner, properly shaded, is the
best. A green shade is preferable for
work. Some of the decorated shades
are an abomination so far as causing
eye.strain is concerned. To read or
write by the light of a gas-burner sew
eral feet away. as on high chandelier,
is worse than folly. II one must work
by gas, the burner should be at a
proper distance. with the flame pro-
tected, for the flicker is most trying.
For an electric light, ground-glass
shade Is recommended. The unpro-
tected incandescent lamp is apt to
work great damage.

THE STORY.

HATEvER the trouble that had
w overtaken Mordecai, Queen Esther
felt confident that she would be able
to help him. So confident was she Of
this. in fact, that when she had dis
patched Hatach with her last message,
telling Mordecai that whatever his
trouble she would help him, she quite
dismissed the matter from her mind,
believing that Hatach would be able
to afford the relief which her cousin
needed.
In this frame Of mind she continued
her planning for some social function
which was to bring the women of the
palace together and help to relieve the
tedium Of the place, and was quite un-
prepared for the message Of Hatach
when he presented himself at the door
of her apartments the next morning
and pressed the importance Of secret
interview.

queen In some alarm, for she saw BY
