our hearts toward those whom We would

surest proof of loyalty, though men OF

not for our proving or for our exploiting

who lives near to his Master and loves
Him. And as we must exercise this faith
in worship, in declaration, in action, SO

Coming of Strange Prophet.

OF him whose high station in life was
thus announced, we know nothing from
his infancy to the day he appeared out
of the wilderness ready for his work. He
was a strange figure; he was an ascetic;
his raiment was camel's hair; about his
loins was a leather girdle; his food was
locusts and wild honey.
Such man could not but attract at
tention. Think of what it would be if he
would appear in Washington!
He attracted still more attention by
reason of his strange message: Prepare
We the way of the Lord-make His paths
straight Crowds gathered. Those who
heard little understood what a prominent
figure in the worlds history this strange
man was. They little understood the i'm
port of his message.
Their very lack of understanding re-
vealed the need Of the work that John
was sent to do. They were unwilling to
understand, for though they longed for
their promised Messiah. they did not long
for one announced by such a poverty
stricken tramp as this. They were too
proud to receive John-and men who
were too proud to receive a messenger
like John were too proud to receive Him
whom John announced to follow-him

To Transfer This Design.

DUT a cake of soap (laundry
i will do) in a pint of hot
water, stir vigorously and re-
move the soap. Saturate this de-
sign with the soap and water
mixture, then remove the excess
moisture by partially drying the
saturated design or by applying
a sheet of blotting paper. Place
the material or fabric to which
the design is to be transferred on
hard, fiat surface, and lay the
design face down upon the mate
rial. Cover with a dry sheet OF
thick paper or two TO-. of news
paper, and with the bowl of
tablespoon rub, pressing hard.
until the design is entirely trans
ferred, being careful to rub from
rather than toward YOU.
When rubbing you can see
if enough pressure is being ap
piled by lifting the corner of the
design, to note how ' ell it is
taking. Do not wet the ma
terial nor rub the face of the de-
sign with damp fingers. To re-
move the design lines after the
article is completed, wash in warm
water with soap. The entire
process is very simple, and with
little care you can easily make
perfect transfers to any kind of
goods.
