But alas, il was Gods will.
His rocking chair and plate are vacant
And can never again be filled,
And lalhsr hoiher, brothers aud sisters
Now with sorrow will be filled,
These days now are DAYS Of sorrow,
Grief and anguish, day by day
But in Heaven lherel be no sorrow,
God will wipe our tears away,
The time had come when we must part,
That we must saw farewell
With tear dimmed eyes and aching hearts
With feeling none could tell.
IT'S hard to part With those We love
Yet duty calls away,
But In that home Of bliss, above
We hope to meet some day.
Why should We weep when Walters at rest
In the arms Of Jesus Supreme,
In the mansions Of glory prepared for his res
For death is no more than a dream.
We heard the whisper in The silent room
In the room where the light was dim,
That Sorrows cup was fast filling up
Soon 10 DER flow the brim.

For Others.

The selfish spirit is utterly at vsl
lance with the spirit and the mind OF
Christ. Every man for somebody else,
is the battle cry of the Lords hosts.
GO ye into all the world and preach
my gospel to every creature" is ex-
pressive of the divine intentions con-
cerning the spirit and attitude Of his
children toward mankind without, ev-
erykhere. BY the law of nature and
the law of the government of God
every man is debtor to the other man
II is a serious thing to be charged
with eternal responsibility for the
other man. Every one either helps
or hinders the other one. What il
one be found a stumbling-block in
stead of a light-bearer a teacher anC
guide for the other man?

What Christ is, constitutes the safe
~, life, power, and JOY of every sur
rendered believer. We cannot too con-
stantly or too completely hold to this
simple truth. The child rests in com
pletely helpless and completely trust
ing dependence upon the parent But
more completely still does Christs own
being constitute all our life and
strength and hope and safety and hap
piness. Therefore, If we yield wholly
TO him, we may always find all our
assurance in him. To remember
tesus Christ" in this way is all that is
needed for our daily guidance, and
strength, and peace, and accomplish
ment. The Psalmist knew God in tht
same way when he sang, BE glad II

all those that seek thee rejoice and b.
glad in thee" Jehovah be magnihed,
"God is our refuge and strength" a
we thus face God in Christ and fix ou

much on the important gowns may be
copied by the home dressmaker if she
will just study the kinds of beads that
are used on these gowns and buy that
kind. String the beads on a double
thread and sew them onto the gown by
taking stitch between each two
beads with another thread. Do not
try to string and sew the beads with
the same needle and thread, or the
work will look very amateurish.
A very clever French trick is to form
a design on chiffon and outline it in
embroidery silk in one or two colors;
then, instead of embroidering the CEN
ters, paint it with very thin gold paint
very carefully. The effect is charming
and only close inspection will detec'
