Temperance Notes.

The new Mayor of Sandusky, Ohio.
has issued an order prohibiting chill
dren going into saloons. This order
applies to newsboys and others, as
we'll as to boys and girls who have
been sent by their parents to purchase
beer.
The Nashville Tennesseean remarks
that the people of Nashville are on
trial before the bar of the world for
winking at the lawlessness of the
liquor dealers. There are a number
of other cases in the same court
awaiting trial for the same offense!
Mrs. Carrie Nation has been arrest
ed many times for wreckiEg illegal
saloons. Did you eve hear of a sa-
loonkeeper being arrested for wreck
ing legal Unconstitutional Voice.
The president of the City National
Bank, of Knoxville. Tenn, conserva-
lively estimates that over 100000 a
year is now being directed to the gen.
eral trade which formerly went to
the saloons.
The city of Fresno. Cal, has closed
all saloons on Sundays ard at mid
night during the week. Which is
good as far as it goes, but it stops
short too soon. Drive them out is the
best policy.

WHEN IS GOD NEAR ME?

When is God near me? Every hour [ live;
At earliest morn, when the first CLEAN
of light
Breaks through the darkness, promising to
give
Day after night.
When is He near me? Meath the NOON
day sun;
When evenings glories deck the glow
ing west;
When nights repose, after the day LII done,
Gives peace and rest.
When is God near me? When the springs
bright flowers
Their fragrance and their beauty scat
ter free,
When songs of birds gladden. the happy
hours,
He dwells near me.
When is He near me? Through the sum-
, mer's heat;
Through autumn's harvest time; through
sun and rain;
When winters tempests on my window
beat
Their weird refrain.
When is God near? When first upon my
sight ,
Dawned the worlds light, His primal
gift to me, ,
In love and warmth and tenderness and
light,
His love I see.
When is He near me? Through life's hour
OF noon,
It's hope and faith and strength--all by
Him given;
And, if the close of this bright day seems
soon,
Beyond lies heaven.
And in the hours of dawn and spring and
youth.
At noon, in summer, and in manhood's
years,
And in the night, in winter, and in death,
His love appears.
When is He near me? Every hour OF life;
And, when from earth my spirit rises
free,
My guerdon for its suffering and strife
His love will be.

Out in the Open.

Boys and men owe it to themselves
to go to the fields and woods and
there to get as close to nature as pos
sible. Nature is the great mother,
and the boy who plays in her yards
is filled with good clean thoughts.
and you can generally rely on him.
He breathes in the exhilarating air Of
freedom and drinks from the streams
that are unpolluted by civilization
and takes home with him a supply OF
health and spirits that money al not
purchase in a city.
This not only applies to the boy,
but to the nan. A tired brain Is rem
ovated and refreshed by a few hours
in the open, and the man who COM
munes with nature and becomes in
innate with her has a friend who will
never lead him astray. Take to tho
woods and fields whenever the oppor-
tunity presents itself, and if you havs
boys and girls take them with you.
Teach them to shoot and to become
familiar with firearms, boats, water
and woods, birds and animals, and
give them a chance to learn and love
nature. If you cannot take them, let
them go with some one in whom you
have confidence. You will be sur
prised how quickly they will become
proficient in woodcraft and how soon
they will feel the charm of outdoor
life. The open plants the seeds Of in
dependence and teaches the young to
take care of themselves. Encourage
them in this direction and then try it
yourselves just as often as you can.
1t beats sitting around a club. An
hour, a day, a week spent in pursuit
Of fish, feather or fur, never forget
ting to visit nature all the while, will
prove an inestimable blessing to the
nerve tagged man or woman. Let me
impress upon you that the act of kill
ing Is only incidental. Never take
advantage of game. Always give 1t, at
least, an even chance, and stop before
you have had enough. Remember
that there are other days and others
coming after you to enjoy the m
pleasures. Obey the game laws, but
if you have the proper conceptionfof
this form o. sport and you are a true
sportsman at heart, the last admon-
ition is s%uperduous, as the laws al
ways allow a reasonable length of
time for it's indulgence, and a liberal
limit to the daily and seasons bag

College Blouse.

The college, or MILDLY, blouse Is .
pronounced favorite. Thisione Is de-.
signed for misses and small women
and will be found peculiarly well
adapted to outdoor sports and to all
occasions of the sort. 1t is loose, att.
lowing perfect freedom Of movements
yet it is smart in effect. 1T can be-
worn over any skirt. White linen
makes this one and it Is banded with
blue, but there are various materials
that are appropriate, although linen
Is always a favorite. Cotton poplin,
and twilled muslin are favorites, ana
thinning preferably consists of ma.
terial In contrasting color.
The blouse Is made with front ana
back and is drawn on over the head
there being only a short opening be-
low, the collar. The collar can ba
made as illustrated, or of one ma
terial throughout, as liked The full
sleeves are without gathers at the
shoulders and finished with straight
cuffs, but there r also plain two-;
piece sleeves included in the pattern.
and these are gathered at the Shouts

Short-Weight Prices.

The New Yorker who knows that
he is gouged to the limit one'way or
the other in the matter of prices i'm
posed upon him by small retailers
will not suppose that giving him six
teen ounces of something to eat for
a pound instead of twelve ounces OF
the commodity, three ounces of board
and an ounce of paper, string, etc.,
will necessarily cheaper the price OF
that article by increasing the guam
tity. Some small retailers lower" the
price by shipping the quantity. Hon.
est dealers, Of course, will increase
the price rather than give short
weight or short measure. But all ou1
experience shows us that if we get
twelve ounces of something, suppos.
ing it is sixteen, for twelve cents, say,
why when we really get the sixteen
they will cost US sixteen cents, the
same price for the actual ounce

II novel, with deep cuffs over which
the sleeves fall free, and this feature
is a notable one Of the season. AS IL
Illustrated the cuffs and the trimming
portion for the front are made from
the material tucked, but these could
be Of all-over lace or Of something
else in contrast If preferable; or the
centre front and cuffs Of plain ma
terial embroidered would be dainty.
The waist is made with front and
backs, the sleeves, the cuffs and the
trimming portion. The lining con-;

is fitted by means of darts. Banding
is arranged ove the shoulders and
to this banding is attached a fold of
the material, which gives somewhat.
the effect, of pleats. When high neck
is desired the chemisette is added.
When the lining is used the cuffs are
arranged over it, when it is omitted
they are joined to the sleeves at the

CAPTURED the Prize Wolf.

A big gray wolf which had been
doing much damage byikilling sheep.
calves and young pigs, was captured
to-day after two years of persistent
effort. 1t was of unusual size, meas
uring from tip to tip eleven feet and
weighing over $50 pounds.
The animal was captured by a COM
pany of twenty-five farmers, who sue
ceeded in getting the animal in a cir
Gle they had formed. The animal is
thought to have been at least ten
years of age. No other wild beasts
of the kind have been in the neigh
borhood for years.-Mason City Cor
respondence, Minneapolis Journal.

An Important Question.

A question that is of vital impor.
lance to every human being Is:
what do 1 have to give up if do not
serve God?" The person who does
not serve God must give up n con.
seriousness that he is doing the best
he can with his life. He must give
up the joyful anticipation, peace OF
mind, freedom of thought and action
that the child of God enjoys. He
must give up the delight of knowing
that he is allied with the greatest
forces in the universe. He must give
up the JOY of loving God and man
with a pure love and the JOY OF know.
ing that he is loved of God. He must
give I'D all hope of a glorious hereaf-
ter, when the soul purified from the
pollution and power of sin will enter
the glorious presence of God. Who.
then, will refuse to serve God?-

Neglect of Doctrine.

The chaotic and rootless characters
of current religious opinion Is mainly
responsible for the welcome given to
teaching which destroys New Tesla
ment Christianity. It would not have
been possible in the days of our faith
ers, when theology was really studied
and preached, for the .nebulous pa
ganism, now airing itself in so many
Christian churches, to have disguised
its real character. The day has passed
for temporizing with the cultured hu.
manism-earnest, graceful and Opt.
mistic-which palliates sin, glorifies
mar and makes our Lord a mere pro.
phet and martyr. - London Sunday
School Chronicle.

Not a Scientific Question.

Admitting mans free determina-
lions in his moral acts, it will not do
to say that God governs man alto
gether by general and permanent
laws; for that would be to ignore ard
abolish liberty as a part of mans
life; i. e., to ignore and mutilate the
work of God. Man determines freely,
and so effectuates, in his W proper
life, events which are not the result
of general laws exterior to himself.
Divine providence takes cognizance
of human liberty. 1t does not man
age men as it does the stars of heaven
and the waves of the ocean, which
neither think nor will. It has differ
ent relations with man and with ma
ture, and a different mode Of acting
upon them.
The Christian doctrine Of provi-
dence represents God as always pres
ent and accessible to men, as the IA
Their is to the. child. 1t exhorts, en-
courages, invites men to pray 10 God
and trust in Him. It reserves to God
absolutely the answer. to prayer. He
bestcws or denies. We may not see
into His reasons, for Gods ways are
not our ways" But yet with prayer
without ceasing" the Christian doc
trine always connects hope; for
nothing is impossible with Gcd."
The Christian doctrine of prov1-
dence is in full and intimate harmony
with the nature of man. In recog-'
nizing his liberty it does homage to
his greatness; in giving 10 him access
to God in prayer it provides for his
weakness. AS a question Of science,
it leaves the mystery as one incapable
of solution; but in actual life and ex-
perience it resolves the problem Of
natural religion which burdens the
soul.-Guizot.

Making Christ Present.

The great work of the Holy Spirit.
what is it? To make Christ present
with US. Look at the disciples; they
loved Him, but they were under the
power of the flesh; the rule of the
flesh had not been broken, and Christ
could not get a Judgment in their
hearts, but He said. 1.-THE Holy Spirit
will come" and Il will come again 10
you in the Spirit, and the Father and
I will take up our abode with you"
The Spirits great work is revealing
God and Christ in our very hearts,

Failure q Teacher.

We learn wisdom from failure
much more than from success, often
discover what will do by finding out
what will not do, and probably he
who never made a mistake never
made a discovery. Horne Tooke used
to say of his studies in intellectual
philosophy that he had become all the
better acquainted with the country
through having had the good luck
sometimes to lose his way.-Samuel

The Francis /.

The Francis l. hat Is nothing but .
big, graceful brim, on which the MIL
liner sets a handmade crown of plt+
able braid, tulle, flowers, lace or net.
With such a foundation an endless va
riety of hats is possible to the woman
who Is clever with her needle and
who can make and change her own
crowns as her whim or the OCCASION
demands. To facilitate this process
the crowns may be fastened to the
brim by means Of snappers sewed on
at regular intervals on the two parts.

Many Kinds of Cuffs.

The choice of a cuff is as broad as
the choice of a collar. The cheaper
variety of shirtwaists have the
straight stiffened cuff, cut like the
one on a mans shirt, and held to-
gether with link buttons. 1t is far
prettier, however, to avoid this sign
Of a cheap waist and put on narrow
turnover cuffs, or wrinkle the sleeves
over the wrist and finish with a tiny
edge Of lace; then fasten with lace
buttons.

the gowns to come, satin centuries
will return. These will not be 80

very decided and the fastening will
be ornamented with tassels or fringe.

to adhere as closely as possible to:

What Can You Bring?

"How many loaves have you?" 1t
is the Lords first question, and the
hands of those who really want His
help search their robes to see what
they have hidden there. One brings
his joy, another brings his pain, an
other brings his poor condition, an
other has nothing to bring except just
his sorrow that he has nothing. 1t is
q poor condition-.only seven loaves
and a few little fishes - but it is
enough. His blessing falls upon
them, and they come back to the souls
which gave them up to Him, multi
piled into the means of healthy, holy,
happy life.-Reformed Church Rec
