THE MODERN MAID.

1t was getting late at night vixen the
servant girl returned from the shops
with various domestic purchases AS
she explained the transaction to her
mistress she cried out suddenly:
There! If / haven't forgotten the
am an eggs for breakfast"
That's a pity observed the mis-
tress, but added, with kindly philoso-
ply: Never mind. The shops will all
be shut now We shall have to man
age in the morning with bread and
butter and marmalade."
The girl stared
"And what shall T. have?' she In
Quired
We'll, Ellen, I suppose you'll have
the same as we do" replied the mis-
tress.
Yes, Mrs. x" responded Ellen, with
some severity; "but let me tell you l
can't do my work unless I'm properly
fed."-Manchester Guardian.

WHILE THE IRON is HOT.

The Milwaukee Sentinel of this
morning stated that q big snow
storm was due here Saturday. The
opportunity is ripe right now for
the farmers to get busy while the
ground is freezing to scrape the
roads with road dTags or even stone
boats. A smooth pavement like
road will then be had as long as
the weather is cold. This was tried
with great success last year south
of this city.

MORE IMPORTANT.

Indeed, it is more important for
a woman to be good than man.
Their influence upon the children is
far greater than the paternal in
huence. Furthermore, children as
a rule, inherit their moral qualities
much more from their mothers than
from their fathers. Consequently,
for a boy to make good, level
headed, true-loving, upright citi-
zen, it is very important for him to
have good mother.
The better we can make the
mothers of our land, the better we
make our country. The old Ro-
man mothers influence was &C
knowledged as a most potent one
upon the patriotism of the people.
Yet our women are not altogether
angels, though many of them are
almost. The more angelic they
may be however, the more will the
race of mankind improve morally.
While the future desti1 IS of man
rest so largely with the women OF
the land, don't forget it is the
country women-the wives and
daughters of the farmers-to whom
we must look tor our temporal So
luton more than any other class OF
women. They are the moulders of
the true representative character OF
the country more than any other.
But for the constant infusion OF
good, healthy country blood, our
cities would stagnate and die.
1t is upon the honest motherhood
of the rural districts that the coun.
try must depend mainly for the
true, sturdy citizenship that must
save us from the anarchical tend.
encies and influences of our large
centers of population.

How to Detect the
Alum Baking Powder

(Which are the alum baking powders;
how can avoid them unless they are nameda"
asks housekeeper.
Here is one way: take the can Of low
priced powder In your hand and read the
ingredient clause upon the back label. The
lawrequires that if the powder contains alum
that fact must be there stated. If you find
one Of the ingredients named alum, or sui
phate Of aluminium. you have found an alum
baking ponder
There is another and better way. You
don't have to know the names of the alum
powders. Use Royal Baking Powder only;
that assures you cream Of tartar powder,
and the purest and most healthful baking
powder beyond question.

Aug. 1O-The Passover. Exodus -.

Aug. 10-The Passover. Exodus II.
| We have for our lesson this week
one of the most important and inter-
esting facts given us in the history OF
the Hebrew race. 1t is no less than
an account of the last night spent by
the Hebrews in Egypt and the insti.
tuting OF the Passover"
Why do you suppose that by law our
people celebrate the fourth Of July, the
birthdays of Washington. Lincoln and
Grant, observe Memorial day? 1t is
| to impress on the minds of the people.
and particularly the children, that on
certain day our forefathers declared
their independence from Great Brit
ain, that such men as Washington, Lin
coin and Grant lived and did great
service for the republic, and that a
grateful nation wishes to do honor to
the union veterans who fought to pre-
serve it in 1865. Why is it that to
this day the mass of the Jews in every
land remember each year a certain
day called the Passover? 1t is be-
cause God commanded it be done, to
keep forever a memorial of the deliv-
erance of the Jews from Egyptian
| bondage. 1t is to commemorate the
last meal eaten by Jesus with His dis
ciples before His death, on the cross,
that christian people observe at stat
ed times the Lords Supper" Jesus
said, do this in remembrance of me
| until | come"
Our last lesson told us Of the ten
terrible plaques which came on Egypt
before Pharaoh, the proud ruler, had
his spirit so broken that he would let
the Jews go oAt of captivity. The last
of these Affections was the death of
the first born of every Egyptian fam
lily. When in nearly every home there
was someone dead the common people
as we'll as the monarch and his oftic-
ials cried out for relief. and were
ready to acknowledge the power of the
Go dof the Hebrews to listen to His
commands as to His chosen people.
There was grave danger that the
death of the first born might take
place in every Jewish household as
we'll. Let us find out why it did not
God gave special commands through
Moses that on the eventful night the
head of every Jewish household make
a sign over the door that one of His
people lived there The sign was to
be painted in blood so it could be we'll
seen. How the blood got there we
shall soon see.
The great and long looked for time
was now at hand for the Jews to OBJ
tain deliverance from Egyptian bond
age. They We're told to prepare them
selves for an immediate long journey:
to make bread for themselves free
from yeast or fermentation. then to
kill their best lamb, prepare it for
eating without breaking any of its
bones. and lastly to sprinkle some of
its blood on the Intel of the door.

This every faithful Jew did, resulting
in the death angel passing over the
house where the sign of the blood was
to be seen.
One of the lessons of many we can
here learn, is as to the faith in God
shown by the Jews. 1t took faith in
what God has said for Jew to pre-
pare thus to leave Egypt that night,
and put the blood on the door post.
The killing of the lamb and sprinkling
of the blood seemed a simple yet a
strange thing to do at that time, yet it
was the requirement and had to be
done. 1t was in the power of any Jew
ish family not to act. Arguments
could have been made that the COM
mand was foolish, unheard of, that
surely God would not cause death
in the home of Jew when He had
in the past. We hear much OF such
talk nowadays. The commands and
directions of the New Testament tell
us that we must believe that Jesus
Christ was the Son of God, who shed
His blood on the cross for our le-
demption and that to escape eternal
death we must obey His words. There
is no lodging this state of facts. Some
of course say that God would not be
so cruel as to condemn any souls who
do not believe on Jesus, that he
loves every human being so much that
this could not be. There is no reason
to think thus if the bible is true. II
there had been no blood sprinkling
there would have been no escape for
Hebrew when the death angel was
abroad in Egypt on that eventful
night. If we refuse to have faith in
the bible and will not do what it plain
ly says then we can have no escape
from condemnation at the final judg-
ment.
The Jews of long ago obeyed God
and their deliverance came at once.
The Egyptians We're willing to give
their former slaves much property
not alone as their due, but to hasten
their departure. Out of Egypt they
