Charity by Proxy.

There is an Oregon statesman who
is very prudent with his money. He
rarely spends anything if he can get
some one else to do the spending for
him. One morning he was walking
down the street with friend and
they met q heggar who had tale OF
woe that was amazing. The states
man listened and asked some ques-
lions. Then he turned to his friend

affects me greatly. Give him quar-

Gods Liqht and Leading.

If man expects to be led Of God
he must at least be willing to turn
aside from paths in which he knows
God could never lead him. A man
cannot deliberately follow wrong
course in one thing and expect to
have clear light as to Gods leading
in other things. He must take his
choice between his own will and
Gods; for Gods will is not made as
clear as 1t might be to the man who
prefers in some cases to follow his
own will. When one learns this plain
lesson he has far fewer problems of
guidance and he steps out with a
stride that means confidence in the
WAY. Until he learns that lesson his
footing can never be sure.

FAITH THE GREAT NECESSITY
"ithou. That Power Is 1t impossible
to Please God or to Move
Men,

Faith Is that power in man which
creams and sees visions. 1t is a
Kind OF spiritual imagination that
sights afar promised land of bless
ing, as sailors from the crosstrees
OF barques far out On the ocean dis
Germ in the distance the faint outline
OF shore to which they are home
ward bound. Faith lends inspiration
to life, and breathes into humanity
the spirit Of hopefulness. Without
faith it is impossible either to please
God or to move men.
But this faith which does wonders
In human history is No merely mag
NATIVE or speculative faculty. The
test of all true faith is that it be found
at work, from the monday to the eve
of life, until the Master comes to
reckon with the laborers and to pro-
mote to higher usefulness all faithful
toilers. Life at the longest is but a
brief span, and it's significance is
thereby seen to be the greater. If
there is so little time, and so much to
do In that time. how heavy is human
responsibility. The only force or
faculty that is equal to this strain of
duty-doing is the grace of faith. Man.
when he iabors alone, in his own sup
posed strength, is a lamentable fail
ure. but when he works with God, in.
spired by faith in the Highest, he
works calmly, courageously, efficient
ly. and with permanency of results
The end of the commandment is faith,
and the fulfillment of lifes purposes
comes of faith that worketh by love-
Let the Christian dream dreams, and
build Ligh his castles of heavenly
hope. but let him also, while life lasts,
show his faith by his works.

These broad brims. droop and lift,
flowing about the face and head in
lines that make us wonder and envy,
not at their own sweet will, but by
the careful calculation of the mind

SUMMER BEDROOM IN COLoRS
Soft Shade of Green One of the Most
Appropriate That Can Be
Devised.

A beautiful green room of a sum
mer cottage has been produced with
green woodwork in one of the restfu
sage-green tints. the walls papered in
plain cartridge paper, with frieze
of stray vines, all In different shades
of the same cool color. The wicker fur.
niture is finished in a forest green

a green and white rug of fine, joint

tatns hang at the windows with
straight-falling draperies of liberty
silk of the same color over them. A

four feet high stands at the head of
the bed. 1t is straight column resting
on a square block base, the 1uted
finish outlined in green. 1t holds a
large green wax candle, at the side of
which is a little holder for a box of
matches. Other fittings of the room
carry out the green and white scheme,
and as the apartment faces the south,
the effect has been to temper its high
light and contribute restfully sub

Take Good Care of Your Gloves.

Gloves are another item about
which many do not concern them
selves sufficiently. A soiled glove
looks as badly as a soiled collar, yet
no one would think of wearing the
latter, whereas gloves that reek with
dirt and germs are worn with the
greatest disregard for appearances
and hygiene. Fastidious women find
the Shamois glove a delightful substi-
tute for the regular kid, as it can be
washed when soiled, wears as well as
any other, and is much more comfort
able. Gloves, like stockings should be
mended the moment they begin to
show wear; In fact. every garment re-
quires constant inspection to keep it
In condition and always ready for use.

the Grand Prix. where millinery and
horses triumph-but mostly millinery.
1t would surely hold its own in any
meeting of those who make dress a
study and vie with one another in dis
play. Happy the bride or bridesmaid
who may indulge herself in its coun-
terpart. 1t is a hat for high occasion
There are four long, but not heavy,
plumes, more like soft mass of snow
than anything else in nature. There
is almost no curl in the long fibers.
Such a hat never was and never will
be out of style.
The third hat is more distinctly of
the season. 1t has a bell-like brim
with irregular edge and fairly tall
crown. Fuor long plumes are mounted
at the right under bow that is more
than large. They fall completely over
the crown, TO the left brim. One half
the face is in shadow from the sharp
droop of the brim This hat is almost
universally becoming
All these hats are set on the head
In the proper position. 1t will be no
ticed that the pose is dignified-not
rakish. The crowns are posed as
they should be. directly on top of the
head. 1t is the modelling Of the brims
that gives each hat it's individuality
and makes each extraordinary. AS
studies in midsummer high art millin-
cry they must interest everyone.
Those who would like fac-similes of
any one of these must consider wheth-
er their features are of the same class
or not, and remember that the rest
of the toilette must play up to the hat.
Such millinery is immensely useful
for it is brimming over with good sug.
gestions, which we will do well to
follow-some of them at a discreet
distance JULIA BOTTOMLEY.
