HERE is never a time
when a woman does not
need bit of feminine

need bit of feminine
frippery in lingerie. Here
is a pattern which suggests some
thing unusual in an undergarmcnt
decoration, combining beautiful
embroidery with two widths of
ribbon.
Use a very soft floss. not mere
than one strand for each design.
and work the flowers in solid
satin stitch. The large eyelets
through which wide ribbon is run
should be finished with very
narrow buttonhole stitch. 1t may
be run around with tread and
finished in eyelet if preferred. but
it must be substantial to stand the
stress of heavy ribbons. When
this is used as a nightgown pat
tern the flowers can be worked
in pale. blue, pink or lavender,
with colored ribbons to match,
but it is advisable TO use white
when the garment is worn next to
the waist. The pattern can be
used with or without wide rib
bons, but they add such dainty
finish to tinery that no one will
regret the few extra stitches for
adornment. Its possibilities are
many for decorating various arti-
cles of dress.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

FROM the Northwestern Christian Advocate.
TO learn to think and act for yourself
To respect gray hairs, especially your
own
To waste nothing, neither money, time
nor talent
If you have place of business, to be
found there when wanted.
To spare when you are young, that you
may spend when you are old.
To bear little trials patiently that you
may learn how to bear great ones
To be self-reliant and not take too
much advice, but rather depend on your
self.
To keep alive i'm your breast that little
spark of celestial fire called conscience
To learn to say no; it will be of more
service to you than to be able to read
Latin.

Great Things Versus Small Things.

The need of the hour is not for more
men who are anxious to do some great
thing, but for more men who keep their
eyes open for the chances to do little
things. Every community, every church.

those who are doing nothing simply be-
cause 1.-The big chance does not come
their way They need to take to heart
the words recently spoken by distin-
guished man: 1.-The chance for heroic en-
deavor of a spectacular kind does not
often come. TIE man who really counts
in this life is not the man who thinks
how we'll he could do some bit of heroism
IL the chance arose. but the man VINO
actually does the humdrum, workaday,
every day duties as these duties arise.
And when 1.-The big chance comes the
worker most apt to take advantage OF 1t
is not the one who professed to be walt
ing for it. but one of the persons who
has been content to do the small things
well.

To Transfer This Design.

DUT a cake of soap (laundry
! will do) in d 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
sheet of blotting paper. Place
the material or fabric TO which
the design is to be transferred OH
a 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 a
tablespoon rub, pressing hard,
until the design is entirely tran,-
ferred, being careful TO rub from
rather than toward YOU.
When rubbing YOU can see
ii enough pressure is being ap-
piled by lifting the corner OF the
design, to note how veil ii IS
taking. Do not wet the ma
terial nor rub the face of the dc
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 a
little care you can easily make
perfect transfers to any kind OF
goods.

tice God could not properly show any
preference to one person, or TO one

So far as the world was concerned,
God was under no obligation whatever
to do anything to help Adam and his
race; hence the entire matter OF re-
demption is Of grace. But since
Jehovah entered into convenant with
His son that the latter should pay
the redemption price for the world,
and then become its Rostoror, Jc-
sus. having laid down His life, the
matter has passed from heing purely
Of grace. and has connected with It a
certain measure OF justice between
God and Christ.
So far as man is concerned there Is
measure Of obligation, because God
has already stated what the results Of
the redemption work shall be-"all tho
families of the earth shall be blessed
there shall be a restitution OF ali
things which God hath spoken by the
mouth of all the holy Prophets God
is therefore bound to humanity by
principles Of justice because He has
made these promises. Yea, He has
given His oath that all the families OF
the earth shall be blessed. st. Pauls
argument on this subject Is that God
has thus bound Himself by two inn

Revelation II. 10.
Mark VI, 1l-29-Sept. I.

Todays study includes the tragedy
connected with John the Bapusts
death. King Herod had put away his
own wife, and was living unlawfully
with the wife Of his brother Philip
Herodias-a vain woman apparently
and without conscience. who, for ann
bitions sake, had dared everything
that she might occupy the place of a
queen. John the Baptist. a fearless
teacher, in his preaching had referred
to the fact that King lIerod was liv-
ing in violation of the Divine law.
and that this was likely also to bring
upon the people a war, for his wife
whom he had put away was the daugh-
ter of King Aretas.

and was both angry and fearful-an-
cry that he should dare TO speak so or
her relationship to the King-fearfuI,
lest the words Of this eloquent mau,
which greatly moved the masses.
might ALLEVIATE her from the King. Had
Herod put her away. as would have
been his duty, she would have been
a disgraced woman, for the Heroes
were we'll known in Rome and else
where. So she was ready to do mur-
der, or anything that would divert
such calamity.
Herod feared John and feared the
people who believed John TO be a
Prophet, but Herodias feared neither
God nor man. However, in Difference
TO Herodias' wish, Herod had John
arrested for his temerity. Even then
Herod liked to hear John talk, though
he still kept him a prisoner. All the
more Herodias feared the influence OF
John. The Kings birthday came, and
she encouraged him to make it a
festival, and to ask to the banquet his
principal friends. In the midst of the
carousal she dressed her own daugh-
ter in the airy costume of the dancing
girls Of the East. and sent her in to
dance before the King and his friends
So great a condescension implied
that the King should make some re-
turn. He asked the girl what he
should give her, promising anything
that she would ask, even TO the hall
OF his kingdom True to her agree

tions.
