IMMORTAL BOOK OF RUTH
Great Pastoral idyi Will Live Because
Il 10 Founded on Recital OF
Loving Kindness.

The Book Of Ruth, Is the greatest
pastoral idyl In literature. 1t is founded
on loving-kindness. the loving-kind-
ness Of the MOabitess revealed to her
family, and the loving-kindness Of
Boaz, the wealthy Israelite, to Ruth.
his kinswOman. 1t also contains the
germ of that great-heartedness which
is the center Of the gospel Of Christian
love. 1t is book that opens with tears
and famine, and ends with the sound OF
wedding bells.
The story turns upon the straight
forwardness Of BOaz, who showed
kindness and manliness to Ruth.
member of nation that was Israers
foe, and in that kindness founded n
new house, the house Of Jesse and
David, the royal line that began a
greater than David. 1t was the first
mingling of the blood of the Jew and
Gentle, symbolic of the cosmopolitan
width of the Christian religion. 1t was
the sign that that religion was not
to be founded upon wealth or upon
social caste, but upon the large, whole
some love of the human heart.
BOaz is immortal among Bible heroes
for his kindness, his plain, everyday
generosity, his sense Of protection and
care for the lonely, unprotected Moa-
bitish girl, his dead kinsman's wife,
who in her poverty Cleaned in his har-
vest field aftep the reapers. BOaz gave
, orders to his reapers that they should
allow her to CLEAN even among the
sheaves of barley, and by his large
heartedness gained wife, and. more
than that, made place for himself In
that immortal company who are re-
nowned for naught but for being kind

Pronounced Feature Of the Seasons
Styles Is a Thing That Has to
Be Recognized.

Buttons are not at all left in the
lurch because of the amount of hand
work used. In fact, they serve TO &C
centuate the special feature Of the
waist, coat or suit they adorn. But
tons increase the Importance Of pOck-
cts, belt and capes and give themselves
chance to assume extraordinary
shapes and sizes.
Because of the vogue for dark suits
with white hats, shoes or CATERS. white
ivory buttons are allowed. Sometimes
they are ringed with black or a fash
ionable color, sometimes they have a
pearl center. but all of them are light
in weight, and that accounts for at
least part of their popularity. They
are also made on dark taffeta dresses.
Those used on coats and suits are
more conservative, mushroom and
saucer shapes being the most popular.
Balls, squares and cubes are also en-
ployed, as well as acorns. Pearl but
tons come in all sizes and shapes, from
the large ball buttons. appropriate for
novelty suits, and the fiat styles for
separate skirts, to the tiny ones for
shirtwaists. Heavy colOred materials
make use of ribbed buttons.
Checked suits may be thanked for

MAKING ONES WAY IN LIFE
Every Man Is the Architect Of His Own
Success, However He May Be
Assisted.

How many of us pass our time In
waiting for life to give us something
instead of trying to find it for our
selves! We even go so far as to think
that life owes us always more than we
receive, that we fulfill our mission on
earth by simply living harmless ex-
istence and that fame and fortune
should be ours by right. 1t is for this
latter reason that we so often resent
the good fortune of others and allow
ourselves to believe that we have been
Disseminated against by Providence.
We do not seem to realize that 1t Is
well worth our while to do something
more than wait for what may or may
not come to pass, that we are the
architects in large measure of our
own success and that we must make
the best of what is before us in order
to learn the rights to fulfill the desires
Of our hearts. If we make but little
Roadway we are quick with our ex-
cuses and are always ready to place
the blame upon others who can In no
way be held responsible. If, on the
other hand, we do succeed, it seems
quite natural to take the credit our
selves whether we deserve it or not.
The chances are, however, that If we
amount to very much in this world the
credit belongs to us more than to any
one else, even though We do receive as
sistance at times from those who take
an interest in US. The point of the
matter is that we must fOrtify our
selves to meet conditions as they come
and to do our best to\shape them into
happiness and prosperity for ourselves
