Our Lord once encountered a man
who had a withered hand. In spite Of
the captious questioning Of the Jews,
or perhaps in order to silence It,,
Christ. at the dictate of his own mer-
ciful heart, said to the afflicted man,
stretch forth thine hand! And when
he stretched 1t forth It was restored
whole. The moral is evident-in HUI
man society there are many palsied
hands-atrophied powers or unused
Notwithstanding to be restored to
full duty as social ministrants There
is only one way to accomplish this
result-use what little power is left
in stretching forth the imperfect fac
ulty in the direction Of Jesus Christ,
who can endue 1t with fuller life and
potency. II in your life there is any
loss Of efficiency, any withered hand,
put 1t at once into working condition,
through Christ's grace, IN the line of
duty.

MEDIUM STYLES FOR SPRING
Coming Millinery Will offer Many
Choices. So That Surely All
May Be Suited.

Inc woman who cannot find millin.
cry to suit her this season will indeed
be very difficult to please. Not in
many years has it been made possible
for women to be so sanely and. at the
same time, so fashionably hated as
at present.
The styles are medium in all things.
Crowns are moderately high, brims
are neither too wide nor too narrow.
and trimmings are in no wise exag-
gerateG
The smartloOkirg turbans are most
attractive and come in a variety of
models and colorings to suit every
type OF face. AS a rule, two colors
are combined. and not infreduently
two fabrics besides the trimmings. A
soft, coarse. rather wide straw and
the fine braid of crinoline are a favor
ed combination. The crown in folds
will be Of the heavier straw and the
crushed brim OF the crinoline or hair.
The golden shades, which include lem
on, ecru and leghorn, are preferred for
the crown, while the brim will be of
a contrasting color as blue, dark red,
green or black.
No less attractive than the shapes
are the trimmings. The cockade of
chanticleer red velvet decorating a
hat of golden and black tones is an
example Of smart, becoming lines.
modified sugar loaf hat. the crown en-
tirely concealed under tiny rosebuds,
and the brim of black flexible straw,
is another pretty model. A tiny
blackbird nesting on the left side is
the only trimming.
The fashionable trimmings are small
flowers, single quilts, small birds. me-
dunn wings, soft ribbons and velvet.

Delicious.

Possess yourself of forcing tube

sorts of patriotic designs at little
cost.
Make a simple cup cake batter, bake
in shallow tins about two inches deep,

pieces. Ice some of these with red
icing, others in white, and with a tube
make a curled fancy border Of white
on red, and vice versa.
Ice in one corner crossed flags, using
red and blue icing. Some of the cakes
can have three candied cherries, dot

made of angelica; below can be a tree
trunk iced in chocolate, with a red ice

For a big cake, bake in a deep star
shaped pan, ice with a white icing. dec

An effective border for a round, big

can be put on a round box that slips
over the real cake.
