HOW TO GO AROUND 1T.

q never have any trouble getting
things done,' a farmers wife said
recently.
''Do tell us how You manage it!''
- L do not manage it at all, men
don't like to be managed; but this is
my way:
81 never scold or find fault. If a
thing needs doing and / can not do
it, simply say, Husband, | see the
spout of the eaves-trough has drop
ped down, so that the water runs
close to the cellar wall. If it freezes.
don't you suppose it will injure the
wall7' Or, Husband, when you go to
the barn would it be too much trouble
to take that pan of potato parings
along to the horses7 And l shall
need the pan again at noon,' (because
he might otherwise forget to bring
it back.)
'lf l should set out with a high
hand to tell what 1 wanted done, ten
chances to one there would be hard
feelings, and | might not get any
thing done, after all.
And then, the tone of the wo-
man s voice is worth an hours argu.
ment.
'Then, too, the look on ones face
counts for more than little. Smiles
go farther than frowns.
1.-The best of it is, you feel sc
much better about it afterward, your
self, If you have been kind to the
one you love best. Nothing hurts SC
, much as bitter words"
Is there any woman anywhere who
does not agree with this7

Like Him.

Change into His image! Not rer-
fectly-oh, never perfectly in this
world.
The reflected image of the sun in
the lakes is very different from the
sun In the heavens. If he ceases to
shine, as when cloud passes over
his face, the image in the water is
lost. If You disturb the smooth sur
face of the lake, the likeness of tho
sun will be broken into glimmering
fragments. Still it is the image Of
the sun. So it is with Christ's like
ness in the heart of the believer. IL
cloud of unbelief or worldliness
comes between the image vanishes.
When the heart is troubled by doubt
or fear or sudden calamity, how bro
ken the likeness often is! But,
whether dimly or brightly appearing,
1t is likeness to Jesus still.
And be not discouraged, dear
Christian soul, If, after all these
years, you can see nothing of the
beautiful image in yourself. Let It
comfort your heart to reflect that
Jesus may see His likeness where we
can hardly discern it at all, Just as
the portrait of a child will sometimes
seem better to a parents eye than to
strangers. There are touches of
resemblance which only love can see.
Not that this should content us. We
ought not to be satisfied with a like
ness which only the eye of God can
see. We must aim to be SO like Christ
that all the world can see Him in us

A Resting Place.

1t is a great thing to come to Christ
it is the turning point OF life; and
1t is great thing to abide in Him in
the storm and conflicts and terrors of
the world.
Safe to the hidden house of Thine abiding,
Carry the weak knees and the heart that
faints;
Shield from the scorn and cover from the
ending,
Give the world JOY, but patience to the
saints.
1t Is a great thing to come to
Christ; 1t is a great thing to abide In
Him; but from His point o. view the
object OF our coming and of our abid-
ing Is that We should so. He wants
us as His messengers, as His fellow
messengers; His purpose is that, abid-
ing In Him, we should be the fruit
which is for the healing OF the ma
tions; that we should be the COM
municators OF the light which shines
upon the people who sit In darkness
and In the-shadow of death. II l do
not so. / am like an untimely birth,
or am like a seed which has rotted
In the ground. He bade me come, He
encouraged me to abide, In order that
l might go.--Normal Christian.

Baptized With Fire

When a lecturer on electricity
wants to show an example of a hu-
man body surrounded by fire, he
places person on a stool with glass
legs. The glass serves to isolate him
from the earth, because it will not
conduct the fire-the electric fluid.
Were it not for this, however much
might be poured into his frame, II
would be carried away by the earth,
but when thus isolated from 1t he re-
tains all that enters him. You see no
fire, You hear no fire, but you are
told that 1t is pouring into him. Pres
emily you are challenged to the proof.
asked to come near and hold your
hand close to his person; when you
do so, spark OF fire shoots out to-
ward you.
If thou, then, wouldst have thy
soul surcharged with the fire of God
so that those who come near thee
shall feel some mysterious influence,
proceeding out from thee, thou must
draw nigh to the source of that fire,
to the throne of God and of the Lamb
and shut thyself out from the world
that cold world which SO swiftly
steals our fire away. Enter into thy
closet, and shut to thy door" and
there, isolated before the throne, ''

and thou shalt labor, not in thine

II
uplifts the world is that He does what
no other person can do. He offers
divine forgiveness to every sin-sick
soul. Who can measure the meaning
OF that great sacrifice upon the cross
| What relation does this death bear
to each of our lives? II we place the
| same meaning upon this fact which
Jesus did. we shall count It the CEN
trail point of all history. The cross
came into His vision when He was a
mere child, and 1t never passed from
His sight until He was crucified upon
1T. He came to write with a bold
hand one supreme word for which the
world had searched for centuries.
They had hoped for it. They had
dreamed about 1t. He wrote it with
His own blood. He wrote 1t so clear
ly that the world could not mistake
It's meaning. 1t blazed out with a
divine intensity and illumined a very
sintul and weary soul. 1t was the
divine word forgiveness.
We little realize what this word
meant to the world in that day. Their
gospel had been IAN eye for an eye
and tooth for a tooth" This word
struck a new note in their religious
life. Jesus mounted upon the cross
and with one mighty sweep He
brushed away all the trappings of the
Mosaic law. Its ceremonies and puri-
fyfngs now became a dead letter. He
burst open the Holy OF Holes and
made 1t possible for every repentant
soul to approach God. He revealed
that for which the centuries had been
looking. He manifested that for
which the heart had been hungry
the love OF God. Never again need
the world doubt Gods love. From
every valley and hillside and hamlet
1 see the weary, burdened people
pushing their way toward the cross,
to find refuge under it's shadow and
to seek forgiveness through it's sub
lime sacrifice. 1t Is the greatest mes
sage of the ages.
How much this forgiveness means
to the world to-day! 1t touches every
phase Of our lives. 1t comes to the
conscience and places the enormity of
sin by its side and shows it's estimate
In the light of Biblical standards. 1t
comes to the intellect, and, with the
authority Of Him who made the in
teliect, reveals the true way to the
Fathers heart. 1t comes to the heart
and with an infinite pathos and power
SHOWS the love and mercy of the in
finite God. 1t fits every side of our
lives. Christ forgives every mean ac-
tion, every sinful deed, every neg
lected duty, and every unkind word.
He forgives the sins we have COM
mitted against ourselves, against our
brothers and against our God. He
blots them out so completely that
neither our own fearfulness, nor our
strong enemies power, nor our self
reproach can reveal them. He buries
them so deep that nothing in heaven
or in earth can ever resurrect them.
Dig down as deep as you can and you
will never find even the skeleton of
the lifeless dust of your sins. The
evil heart which is the fountain of
sin will be purified and made white
as the snow, so that forever after
there will issue forth pure and right
eous actions. The old familiar hymn
states the Christians experience
beautifully:
My God is reconciled.
His pardoning voice / hear,
He owns me for His child,
u can no longer fear,
With confidence / now draw near,
And Father, Abba, Father cry.
