home to heaven that those who slept
in him shall rise again also, and
be with him. Then he spoke of the
lily so wondrous fair that grows from
the unsightly bulb, and said the heav-
enly body will be as much more beau
tiful than the earthly body as the
flower is more beautiful than the root.
1--WE cannot imagine" said he, "an
angel fairer to look upon than this
lovely baby, but God will give us some
day to see the perfect loveliness that
he can bestow. When this glorious
resurrection day returns year by year,
you will also think Of this lovely flow
er given back, and growing far more
beautiful in the garden of God. And
it will be yours to keep forever"
Anna treasured these precious
thoughts, and when she went to kiss
her mother good night, with her cheek
laid gently against hers, she said, soft
ly: always when 1 see the Easter
lilies shall think Of our Lille so
beautiful in the garden of Cod, And
1 shall keep for my Easter verse the
one that Mr.. Osmond read: If we be-
lleve that Jesus rose from the dead,
them that sleep in him will God bring
with him. And he said he will have
her again to keep forever"

TITLE Anna Harley stood by

TITLE Anna Harley stood by
her mothers side, intently
watching the lacelike needle
work she was putting into the hand
kerchief. The threads had been drawn
with the greatest exactness and the
cambric carefully basted over a bit
Of enamel cloth to keep it from draw
Ing, and the needle and gossamerlike
thread went in and out, leaving be-
hind them the daintiest lace stitches
shining like frostwork. Anna won
dered If she should ever do anything
so beautiful. Then she asked her moth
er If she might try.
"This would be too difficult for you,
DEAR" said her mother; "but you may
try piece of hemstitching. Here is
bit Of linen in my basket you may
begin on. 1 will start the first thread,
and you may loosen ten more and
draw them out"
When this was done, Anna learned
the stitch and soon showed very neat
piece of work.
''Now," said her mother, show would
you like to hemstitch dress for baby
Lille for a Christmas gift? 1 think
Aunt Anna would be very proud Of
some of your work."
"Oh, I'd like it so much, mamma
Lille is such a darling"
Day after day the little fingers
stitched away, and by the middle of
December the hemstitching was done,
and her mother made the little dress.
Christmas morning it was sent with
the card of "Anna Santa Claus" Aunt
Anna kept the box open on the table
all day to show to all visitors. She
was sure there never was such love-
ly piece of work done before by a
child only eight years old.
The I'd of February was Annals
birthday, and Aunt Anna and Lille
were invited to tea. Lille wore her
little Christmas dress in compliment
to her cousin Anna, and with a warm
fleecy white sacque over. Anna thought
her darling baby cousin was never so
pretty before.
"She has the right name Aunt Anna /;
she's white as lily, and her golden
hair is just like lily's heart. Oh,
you sweet thingw she exclaimed,
catching her up. "You look just like
an ANGEL" And the happy baby laugh
ter rippled back her delight.
Just then the bell rang, and the
florists man handed in a large, care

"Here is another

HAT a strange and wonder.
wv full uplift is experienced by
those who observe in true
spirit the day which commentaries the
resurrection of Christ. Into their
souls there Is waited something Of the
sweetness of the winds of heaven. Into
their hearts flows the peace which the
world cannot give. The very comfort
Of God is theirs.
The Easter message speaks of vic
tory. The grim foe that has terrified
men in all ages has been conquered.
Jesus has triumphed over death and
his victory Is ours. His "foot is on
the skull" of death. There is no place
for mournful music in the resurrec-
ton anthem.
The Gospel of Easter day is marvel
ously comforting. There are multi
tudes of sad hearts in the world. How
few are the homes that have not felt
the blighting touch of bereavement.
How few across whose thresholds the
somber-robed messenger has not en-
tered. To all who sorrow the Master
speaks in great tenderness: 81 am
the resurrection and the life; he that
believeth in me, though he die, yet
shall he live"
The loneliness Of the bereaved! WLo
can appreciate it but those who have
drained the bitter cup?
o, for the touch of vanished hand,
For the sound of voice that is still
It is time to remember in LOVING
prayer those whose faces are stained
with tears and whose hearts are veal y
with heavy burdens. Sorrowing ones,
we offer you Christ's glorious resurrec-
tion promises. They are the words of
eternal life. They speak in ringing ac-
cents of hope and heaven. They pro-
claim the glad tidlngs that they whit
fell asleep in Jesus are safe in tie
Fathers house. They counsel pL-
| tience, loving submission to the all
wise will Of God, confidence In him
who has never broken his word. Soine
day, in Gods own time, we shall staut
face to face with those whom we
slowed and lost awhile" What a day
that will be, o my soul Then the
broken bonds will be restored and the
old, sweet compahionships renewed
and the glory will be all the brigh ter
for the shadows through which we
passed.
The resurrection message Is q jAn
to consecrated service. "Be We ste Itl-
fast, unmovable, always abounding In
the work of the Lord" Be up ind
doing, for we serve the Master of
life. The sln-slck world waits for low
ing ministratlons in Jesus name. We
are co-laborers with God, we are
linked up to the divine purpose, we are
intrusted with the work of the king
dom. Then let us toll manfully Ror
the Masters sake, with q song in OuY
hearts and smile on our faces. &C uY
labor is not in vain in the Lord. y3y
the blessing Of our Lord it will bear
fruit for the eternities.
Thank God for the story Of the
empty tomb Praise be unto him who
has shed light into the grave! Thanks
giving unto him who is the Lord of tile
life everlasting
That God who ever lives and loves,
One God, one law, one element.
| And one far-off divine event,
To which the whole creation moves.

YES! MAGICALLY!
CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You say to the drug store man,
"Give me q small bottle. of freezone."
This will cost very little but will
positively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether COM
pound applied directly upon tender,
aching corn relieves the soreness in
stantly, and soon the entire corn or
callus, root and all, dries up and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet Of
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man, who says that freezone dries in
a moment, and simply shrivels up the
corn or callus without irritating the
surrounding skin. y
If your druggist hasn't any freezone

his wholesale drug house for you.-adv.

shares of stock to the buyer tomor-

crowd and borrows certificate for
100 shares of steel stock. That certi-
ficate, at the market price is worth
$12,500. and the broker must put up
that amount of money as security for
the loan of the stock. The broker
