First love is very apt not to be the
lasting love-" said DR.. Antoinette Koni-
kow, speaking at the Boston School or
Social Science.
Young lovers try to excuse all tho
faults of the loved one because they
are not en- love with the individual. but
with love Hence they may not choose
the partner with whom they win find
their happiness in later years. Many a
man and woman Is glad by middle age
that the first love was frustrated.
Marriage should be based on love
alone or It is immoral. and some change
is necessary fl marriage is TO be saved
from degradation. Real love always
makes people better Romantic love is
the source of all the best things I'm life
the foundation of all the arts. And
individual happiness makes up the hap.

In "Tales of the Flying Service" Q.

the official report of IN officer who had
recently Joined the service and was
sent to pass a seaplane through its
test for the English navy. He had to
go up as a passenger with the con
structor's pilot and to keep a log Of
what occurred during the test.
This is what he put down: 1905 a. IN.

The emerald has been known since
early times both IN Europe and in GER
tain parts Of the orient. where its at
tractive color and rarity have endowed
It with the highest rank aud a varied
lore. It's name may be traced back to
an old Persian word which appeared
In Greek as "smaragdos." mentioned
bT TheOphrestus over 800 years before
the Christian era, and again In Latin
as "smaragdus," seen in the writings
Of Pliny, who particularized somewhat
ON its properties aud supposed me-
dicinal virtues and was even shrewd
enough to suspect its identity with the
much more common beryl although
eighteen centuries elapsed before this
suspicion was verified by scientific
proof.

The Pyqmy Llippopotamus.

One of the animals least known to
the outside world is the pygmy hippo
potamus of West Africa.
This animal is just what its name
implies. a pygmy hippopotamus. 1t is
much smaller than the common hippo
potamus. being no larger than an ordi
nary or fair sized hog. 1t differs some
what from the common hippo in the
character Of its teeth, and instead of
spending its time i'm the rivers and
lakes in large herds it wanders about
through the jungles singly or in pairs,
much after the manner Of swine in
search OF mast.-London Spectator.

self to feet washing they were not
greater than He, and should be ready
to do acts carrying out the spirit OF
what He had done.
The spirit of self sacrifice and serv-
ice are the outstanding results of the
religion of Jesus. The great religion
of India with its system of caste"
runs in spirit opposite to that OF that
taught by Jesus. Even mother love
will not stand the test of caste. Moth.
ers will see their sons and daughters
suffering, calling for aid, and will turn
a hard heart, if help means break
ing CASTE" 1t is one of the liberties
which come to christian converts in
India that they are free from former
conditions, can eat what they please,
do as they wish, be kind to all without
reference to the caste aOf society in
which the suffering one was born. The
great parable of the Good Samaritan
well sets forth the spirit Of the true
christian as contrasted with that OF
caste eXclusiveness.
1t lis their willingness to do service
for others which brings to the help of
the missionaries many people in the
heather lands. Helpfulness from ap-
parent love of doing for others is
something which stands out, cannot be
overcome, or reasoned against. Peo-
pie who do this cannot be bad; agents
of the evil spirits; must be worthy OF
trust Even the benighted low down
heather at last sees this and comes to
the missionaries for aid and sym2a-
thy. This being given freely, the tie
is made which binds, and that for the
uplift of the one helped.
If we want to follow in the steps of
Jesus we must have His spirit of sac
rifice for others. Love must be our
animating motive in dealing with
those we meet, and in our relation
with all men and women. Jesus came
to minister to Others, and in proper
ton as we minister, that's. help disin-
terestedly others, we are carrying His
religion iifSthe- world The great
Apostle Pahlsins noting his career said
that he had been all things to all men
that he might win them to Christ He
said to be able to come down to those
OF low degree, to mind not those of
high standing and feelings. Pride has
no place in the true christian. In
Mark 0: IA Jesus said, whatsoever
would be first among you. shall be the
servant of ALL" At another time He
said that he that exalteth himself shall
be abased. .t
Thus we nave for our lesson one OF
the great things of the religion OF
Jesus. We see that His religion calls
for service for others, that no duty or
service is too mental or low if under
