Ribbon flowers are both fashionable
and beautiful. The rosebud spray is
very pretty, Cut bias strips three in
ches wide of chiffon or any soft sa-
tin fabric; satin Is the best. Make
a fold which will be one and half
inches wide. Fasten thread and start
winding around and around Keep
the fold tight in the center and loose
on the outside until you have your
rose of the desired size. For hair
wreaths, which are so pretty, attach
green rose foliage, which can be
bought for small amount. Forget
me-nots are made by cutting narrow
blue ribbon into five inch lengths;
make a tight knot in the center of
each length, using a little yellow for
center. Either OF these flowers are
very pretty ON children's hats.

Marcus Whitman.

The name of this American pioneer
has enlisted grateful praise from his
countrymen for heroic services in be-
half of his country as we'll as in behalf
of the cause of missions
In 1896 he went to Oregon for the
American board as missionary physi-
cian
During his residence there of six
years he became convinced of the value
of the country and returned to Wash
lngton and by his representations to
the President and Congress succeeded
in securing the great Oregon country
for the United States, which was at
that time in danger of being alienated
from the nation.
To prove the accessibility of the
Oregon territory to settlers, he led
back a large train of wagons to the
valley of the Columbia.
To his heroism we are indebted for
the acquisition of this large domain
He did great work in the few years
from 1896, when he first entered
Oregon as a medical missionary, to
1S47. the year of his death. He was
murdered by the Indians.

Melville B. Cox.

This hero was the first foreign mis-
sionary of the Methodist Episcopal
FNurch. When his health became so
~ aired that he had to give up
y. eaching. he volunteered to go as a
missionary to Africa
At the time he received his appoint
ment for foreign service he wrote in
his journal:
The episcopacy has concluded to
send me to Liberia. l hail it as the
most joyful appointment from them
that l ever received. The prospect now
is that, feeble as l am, there | may be
useful while the energy of life remains,
that l may cease at once to work and
live. A grave in Africa will be sweet
TO me If He sustainS me-"
He reached his destination in March,
1888. He was permitted to only live
five months, but during that time he
rendered heroic service in the cause of
his Master.
Seized by african fever, he passed
away, ceasing his work and life at the
same time. With untiagging zeal he
labored to the end He made request
that his epitaph should be:
/ Let thousand fall before Africa be
given up.

Heroism of Conservation.

There is missionary heroism besides

selves.
A missionary secretary once said to a
gentleman who had come to take leave
of his son: rs it not great trial to
you to part with your eldest SON.
YES" was the answer. "it Is great
trial, but I've been expecting 1t for a
long time. The day my son was born
/ attended a missionary meeting, and
was greatly impressed with what l
heard. When I went home l took the
babe out Of bed and, holding 1t in my
arms. l said to my wife: will you give
this boy to the missions?"
Yes she replied. I will
From that time I've been expecting
he would go, though he never knew
