Where He Came In,

Grace was a country girl, whose
parents sent her to the city to at
tend college. When the holidays
came around and she came home, her
mother gave a reception in her honor
Some Of the girl friends asked
Grace to show them her new gowns.
Obligingly she brought out several
modish gowns, and, holding up par
ticularly pretty one of silk, she said:
Isn't this one perfectly beautiful!
And just think, 1t came from a poor
little Insignificant worm"
Her Woodworking father was seated
near, watching the performance, and
he replied:
Yes, darn 1t, and I'm that worm!'

EYE STRAIN
Relieved by Quitting Coffee.

Many cases of defective vision are
caused by the habitual use Of coffee.
It is said that in Arabia where cof-
fee is used in large quantities. many
lose their eyesight at about fifty. Tea
contains the same drug, caffeine, as
coffee.
A N. J. woman writes to the point
concerning eye trouble and coffee.
She says:
"My son was for years troubled with
his eyes. He tried several kinds OF
glasses without relief. The opticlan
said there was q defect in his eyes
which was hard to reach.
He used to drink coffee, as we all
did, and finally quit 1t and began to
use Postum. That was three years
ago and he has not had to wear
glasses and has had no trouble with
his eyes since.

Business 10 on Its Way Out Again

Business is on Its Way Out Again.
Speaking of the business outlook
the Manufacturers Record says that
a group of New York men had gath
cred in a rather mournful spirit, and
as they discussed the business out,
look, which seemed to them to grow
darker and darker, one wit In the
party, turning to a staid, much per-
turbed financier, said:
Mr.. Blank, can you tell me how far
a dog can run into the woods?"
Mr.. Blank, somewhat irritated at
such a trivial remark at a time OF
serious discussion, rather tartly re-
piled that he supposed a dog could
run into the woods just as far as he
wanted to-"

PerlIs Of Riches.

II. The Masters Elaboration, w.
1881. AS a great teacher and philos-
opher Jesus took this occasion to point
out the perils of riches. Nearly every
man Is willing to run the risk. We
have, however, but to look about US
to see illustration after illustration Of
the truth of these words. How hard
ly"-increased wealth, decreased piety.
"How hardly"-men seek to tone down
this picture, but have no right so to
do. The only safety is found in the
words of verse q, with God all things
are possible" The most severe test
possible to be given to a mans relig-
ious experience is for him to be pros
pered in wealth or position. The rich
young ruler is an evidence Of the fact
that such a goddess life is restless
one.
Notwithstanding his possessions, his
refinement, the privileges of his posi-
ton and a life so clearly lived as to
leave no vulgar moral scar, yet he ex-
claims: What shall do that / may
inherit eternal life?" 1t was easier
for the proverbial camel to have en-
.ered the city gate Tor a literal
needles eye as you prefer than for
this young man to yield to God the
control of his life. Every life is under
control. A goddess life is self-con-
trolled life. AS men came to Jesus he
saw perfectly their individual needs;
their peculiar malady.
The disciples were amazed at the
masters words and thought II rich
man cannot be saved there is hope
for none. Such Is not the meaning.
This is revealed in the reply to Peters
question. Men are saved irrespective
of position or Of possessions for God
loves them all. Those who turn the
control of their lives over to his keep
ing, those who, no matter what their
condition or position in life, follow
him, leaving all. or bringing all as the
case may be. viii have their reward
here in this life and In theI world to
come, eternal life.
