Tight facing is. car ried on to an extraordinary extent, and the waist is compressed by force until one would think that the owner could hardly breathe. Yet in this confined state the women will plunge into the widest of Hungarian dances, known as the czardas, and prance frantically like ballet dancers until at the end they sink, gasping, exhausted and well nigh suffocated, on a sofa. AS they grow older most of these slim beauties become enormously stout, and then they are regarded as quite old. The Hungarians, though they resemble the Turks in many ways, have not the Turkish admiration .Dr fat women or the English admiration for elderly made up belles. Hungary is land of slim young women, and when they lose their figure they lose their attrac- tiveness and their power.-M Modern So ciefy.

WORK OF THE HOME
By Rev. w. A Bartlett


There is a tendency to-day to be-
little the work of the home-maker
Our talk is about schools and univer-
stiles. We eXalt the club and the lit
erary circle. The patient mother who
is at home making some needed gar
ment for her family called the drudge
and the slave, living in the dark age.
Yet as a matter of fact all these lit
erary people and those who are eX-
plotting the so-called high ideals are
dependent upon the work of the hands
and must wear the garment which
Dorcas has made.
All this talk about it's being beneath
woman to cook and sew Is abso-
lutte rubbish. The very manual train
ing that is now being put into our
primary schools is reaction against
such unworthy ideas. The woman
who can prepare good meal and who
can fashion a comfortable garment, has
accomplished a greater work than can
be estimated We do not need many
more books. We are overwhelmed with
reading matter of every kind. There
are enough theories of life to make
you dizzy, but the world needs might
lily to be comforted, to be well and
economically fed. 1t does not need
snowy clothes, but it needs enough to
feel warm in winter and to add to the
creature comforts at all times.
Peter raised Dorcas to life because
she had been full Of good works. She
made coats and garments well and
they were needed. But l doubt very
much if Peter would find it convenient
to raise to life dead people Of this
age who do nothing but talk and the
orize; who write books that were bet
ter if they had never been born and
! who add one more burden to a heav-
| lily loaded world Let us eXalt the
beauty and blessedness of the home

When once we have come to do that
we will know that this Is not q world

in God we live and move and have our

pen at random; that there is a reason
fol- everything, even though we may
not be able to know what it is, and
that that reason is without fault or

over all.
Believing this, we can believe that
all things are within His knowledge
and His disposal, because He is Lord
of all, and though they might perhaps
have been ordered otherwise, we be-

merciful God and Father Of all, and
