LAUGHTER PLEASING TO GOD
Nowhere In Biblical Lore Can There
BE Found Intimatlon Of Any
Other Idea.


We misjudge and distort the nor
mally human nature Of the Saviour
when we picture him going through
life, as Dante did after he had writ
ten his Inferno with the shadows
OF perdition on his brow. We may
gravely question when 1t was that the
cross began to darken our Lords
pathway; there is no hint Of such
a foreboding until we reach the mid
die OF his ministry. From that on
there are occasional tokens that he
saw Calvary ahead Of him, and was
at times pressed down with a dread
full sense Of the inevitable agony
which awaited him at the end. But
all this is very far from affording any
reasonable ground for the conclusion
that he smiled sometimes. but never
laughed.
If God did not intend us to laugh,
on occasion, why did he endow us
with the capacity to laugh, with a
sense Of the humorous, with the fac
ulty to see and enjoy wit, fun and
the absurd side of life; and, further
more, why did he produce SO many
things aud people to laugh att

BAG FOR DRESSES or HATsi SHOES FOR LONG TRAMps
Highly Important Part Of Equipment
When Girl contempIates
"Roughine It."

Girls who have had little experience
In outdoor life often do some foolish
things when they begin to try this
form Of enjoyment One way in which
many Of them interfere with their own
comfort is by going on a tramp with
the wrong kind of shoes.
A girl who has played tennis and
found the soft, rubber soled shoes
comfortable will think that they will
surely help her to enjoy tramp; but
they are the last thing to wear for a
long walk, as these girls have found
to their cost. They come home with
their feet aching and the calves Of the
legs tired out from the lack Of the
spring that is given by heels. Walk
ing with a fiat, heelless shoes on a
rough road is extremely trying, and
one can feel every stone through the
soft rubber soles; and these tired feet
and legs will feel even worse the next
day.
Quite as bad as the tennis shoes are
low shoes with thin soles and high
heels. These tire the feet and may
sprain the ankles. The only shoes
that are really satisfactory for rough
ing it" are strong high shoes with
thick soles. The strongest ankles need
support In rough walking, and 1t is
often wet in the woods. The girl who
has once tried the two ways Of tramp
ing will never again be persuaded to
wear low or thin shoes.

most indispensable. A girl can very
quickly make all she wants Of them,
and If she wants to economic space

self, the width being little more than
enough to slide the dress in easily.
When camping 1t is best to put ones
travelling dress and hat into these
bags and leave them there, for they
are seldom wanted until one is ready
to leave. In making the bags for camp

Models considerably shorter than the

to ,lengthen the jacket, with perhaps

a widow 19 months and do not care
to spend the remainder of my life

that God helps those who help them
