at her feet.
"Tell her what?" she said, with
pretty smile.
You are looking so sad. Tell me
what you are thinking about"
The two girls were sitting in Mol
ly's room about month after Rho
da's return from London. The win
dow was open, and the first warm
breath of Spring blew in from the
gardens. Molly put her arms coax
ingly round Rhoda.
You are going to be good to
Adrian. aren't you, Rhoda?"
Rhoda flushed deeply.

''No. l am very wise. I used to
laugh at Adrian and his solemn
ways, but have got to like him
lately, since he fell in love with
you"

Poor Adrian, how you chilled him
yesterday by that solemn gaze of
yours; I could not treat Jack like

Rhoda said, hastily changing the
subject.

"Bill has grown out Of knowledge.

lying on the hearth rug, got slowly
up and ambled across to Molly.

forefinger at the dog. Hold your
self up straight, sir. and do credit to
my teaching"
Molly was interrupted at this mo-
ment by the entrance of Mrs. Dering.
Mrs. Dering looked very pale and
worn, and there was a cold bitter
ness in her tone as she addressed
Rhoda.
Your aunt wants you, Rhoda."
Rhoda rose and left the room In
silence. Molly, who did not move
from the footstool where she had
been sitting at Rhoda's feet, went on
lecturing her dog.
"Give me, your right paw-your
right paw. Don't you know your
right from your left? Isn't he an
ignorant puppy, mother?"
Mrs. Dering had sat down upon a
low chair by the fire and was look
Ing gravely at Molly.
II wish you would leave OF these
childish ways, Molly"
Molly shook her head.
Il shall never leave of being fond

With view to repfenishing the

vice has perfected plans for testing a
number of the national forest woods
In cooperation with several leading
representatives of the pencil industry.
The Department of Agriculture re-
Gently held conferences with lead PEN

out, as stated at the Forest Bureau
yesterday, that the supply of red ce-
Oar, which furnished practically all
the wood for the annual output. for
some 325, 100000 pencils. will be ex-
nausted within Ave years.
In view of this situation a substl-
tute must be found which has all the
qualities OF pencil wood, and which
grows In sufficient quantities to meet
the manufacturers demands. Among
the woods in the national forest to be
experimental with are rocky mount
ain red cedar, alligator juniper, west
ern juniper, redwood, incense cedar,
western cedar, Port Oxford cedar and
Alaska cypress. The specimens coll
lected will be sent to fou- leading
manufacturers, who have agreed to
test them.

His Power Depends on Our Love.

Everybody would be glad to feel
confident that Gods resources were
at his command, but not everybody
may have this assurance. We can
not claim the promise until we are
willing to put ourselves under His
control. Submission must come be-
fore endowment. No one can follow
the leadings of Gods providence un-
less he has accepted Gods authority.
Many times we quote thoughtless-
ly, "All things work together for
good" but that is not true. All
things work together for evil for
some people. Their prosperity be-
comes a curse; the number and in
tenslty of their friendships bring
them no lasting comfort; the whole
order Of Gods universe works against
them. His will is in process of con-
quest; he is at last to be triumphant
over all evil. No opposition to Gods
plans can prosper.
And so, whose will quote the prom
Use. "All things work together for
good" must add, ito them that love
God"
