orchard, the fruit should be picked

not only entails an extra handling and
increased cost, but gives the fruit a

This is ten room house. Some
times when there are number of chill
dren in q growing family house of
ten rooms becomes necessity.
Ideas in regard to the size Of houses
have changed very much in the last
ten years. People are not now build
ing larger than they need, not so much
because the expense of building has
somewhat increased. but the principal
reason is that help cannot be secured
to do the necessary housework. A
great many women have killed them
selves trying to keep large house
looking nice enough to satisfy their
women friends, but women are learn
Ing wisdom and are becoming content
with smaller houses, houses that pro-
vide Just room enough for their fam
lilies and one or two occasional guests.
Sometimes families need house with
four or five bedrooms, then a plan
like this seems to At in just right.
Looking at the perspective it will
be noticed that this house tones up
with the best of them 1t Is the kind
of building that satisfies PERSONS
pride and every one should have
pride enough to appreciate good
home and feel satisfied with 1t.
The mere fact of having a large
house won't satisfy anybody. There
must be more to a home than the
building, but family of from six to
ten persons should be able to estab.
lish a very satisfactory home in a
house like this.
The building is thirty feet In width
by thirty-seyen feet six inches in
length and the porch is extra, a size
sufficient to lay out nicely into large
pleasant rooms, with convenient hall
ways, stairways, etc. It is impossible
to get nine or ten good and sufficient
rooms in house much smaller If
you try it you will surely spoil some
thing.

Reason for Evangelism.

But there was one special matter in
which Paul desired to be well-pleasing
to his lord, and that was in the saw
ing of lost souls such as he had been,
and such as all men are by nature.
Knowing therefore" he says, "the
fear Of the Lord ii. e., having our
eyes on the judgmentseat of Christ
when we must give account of Ger
service with reference to our reward
I'VE persuade men"
This was the motive for such serv-
ice with him. He was not thinking
just now Of the peril and retribution
that would fall upon the lost, though.
of course, at other times he empha-
sized that motive for saving such +:
but he was thinking of his own &c,
countabiliy when, raised from the
dead al Christ's second coming, he
must face his record Of service. Paul's
motive should be our motive, for we
have the same accountability, and
must face the same Lord How are
we fulfilling it? We have many am
billions; can we say that we have this
ambition?
