Encourage the child 10 wait on itself
and you will be saved much work and
will be giving the child an education
which 1t will never be able to value I'M
IN II has reached years of discretion.
There are so many little helps that can
be offered TO make work attractive to
children. For instance, a successful
way TO teach a child to put its soiled
clothes out Of sight is to make for its
own use little laundry bag of some
cheerful color and on It embroider the
word Laundry" Hang 1t on a peg
low enough for.the child TO reach and
you will not have TO remind the child
more than two or three times of its
duty.
II you cannot afford to have nursery
furniture for the child's room you
should at least let the child share a
bureau or dressing table with some one
so that II can be taught quite young
10 put hair ribbons, handkerchiefs, etc.
In a certain place. Let 1t understand
that the space reserved Is all its very
own.

Outdoor Fun Which the Chinese Chill

A good outdoor game for boys or
girls, said to be played a great deal
by Chinese children, is lame chicken.
Shells or stones or any other small
object should be laid i'll row-ten or
twelve objects in straight row, about
foot apart. The first child hops on
one foot Qike a lame chicken over
each object until the last in the line is
reached. This last one he must kick
with his other foot, then pick up the
object and 90 back again, hopping on
one foot as before, until he has again
reached the last object at the end of
the line where lie started. He picks
this up and goes down the line again
until he has in this way, one at time,
gathered all the objects.
He must never touch the ground with
his lame foot, not even when picking
up the objects, and should make but
one hop between them.
The one wins who in a given time
has picked up in this way the largest
number of the articles.

tomb, and Jesus wept and groaned in

On this occasion, is He entered Jeru-

occasions on which it Is recorded that
Jesus wept, but He was ever man of
sorrows and acquainted with grief

see. Jesus talked moment with His
Father and then cried with loud voice.

was at the mouth of the tomb, alive

Many who have come to life from be-
ing dead in sins have not been fully
freed from their graveclothes, the
things they did in their former days
when they were of this present evil
age, but He who gave life is able to set
free from all bondage and make free
indeed to serve Him. If you are free
by His word and Spirit, He will use you
to set some one else free if you will.

JOHH III, -.
The lesson chapter today is out OF
the regular order, just one lesson, be-
cause of its being suitable for Easter.
This is the home in Bethany which
seemed to mean more to Jesus than
any other and to which we were in
troduced in Luke X, 3S-42, when we
saw Martha serving, but not restfully,
Mary serving also. but finding time to
sit at Jesus feet and hear His Word
and commended by Him. We shall
visit them again two weeks hence.
In Matt. XVI, 6, 1t is called the house
of Simon, the leper, and we feel like
asking some questions. that we may
know the family better. But whom
shall we ask? Until we can see them
and inquire more fully, If 1t shall then
seem best, let us rejoice with them
that Jesus loved each of the three, as
II is written, "Now, Jesus loved Martha
and her sister and Lazarus" Verse -.
Many Marthas have been made glad
by this verse. am glad because the
Son of God loved me and gave Him

and suffering and death to come TO

a little later, but both greeted Him
with the same words, Lord, If Thou
hadst been here my brother had not

proachful, but He understood and loved
them just the same. He spoke to Mar
tina of resurrection, but she thought
that He spoke of some far off event
(23-26). The resurrection of the right
eous should be to believers an ever
present possibility and also the thought
OF being caught rp without dying, both

Assisting Women In Their Work
A LUNCHEON FOR EASTER.
Colors of the Spring Used In the Table
Decorations.

OecoFatton9,
With Easter come spring and its
wealth of blooms and greenness.
While white is most emphatically the
color Of the resurrection tide and our
orchards remind us OF snowdrifts In
their virgin whiteness, yet low down
at our feet. in shaded corners, the
wood violets and hepaticas beam up TO
us with their wealth of royal coloring.
So for our luncheon we may fifty min
gle the two and garnish the table with
branches of cherry blooms, while
around them the violet plants bedded
In moss set Off the paler beauties above
them. In planning the menu we may
to some extent carry out the color
scheme. decorating here and there with
candied yiolets such dishes as will
bear the addition:
Unhulled Strawberries With Powdered
Cream Of Chicken in Cups.
Pulled Bread.
Fish Timbales. Sauce Bechamel.
Dressed Cucumbers.
Broiied Brains. Asparagus Tips.
Broiled Chops With New Peas.
Rice Croauettes
Lettuce and Ham Salad.
Cheese With Ounce Jelly Waters.
Violet Sponge.
Fancy Cakes. Bonbons. Nnts.
Coffee.
This meal is one which. by fore
thought and advance preparations,
may be well carried out even though
the kitchen assistant is not a skilled
cook. In such case however, the mis-
tress herself must be the leading spirit
and do much of the fine work
