Heavens Today.
BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE

Now, no excuses and no regrets.
For the woods are a-bloom with

But she said, I'm up to my eyes in

I am cleaning house, which, I dare
to assert,
Is reason enough. you'll say
Back came the answer. sweet,
though curt;
If you call that a reason. nv dear

The dirt will keep. but the violets
won't!
So come! and come today"
Fine words were those. And YOU
Are hardly alert. if we glance them

Nor bid their wisdom stay
How often we grub in the dirt, in

or breathing the blessings around

Which blossom along our way.
And perhaps we say that our

And we call that a reason? NV

TWO SHORT SERMONS
BY the REV. CHARLES sTELZLE.
ITO Bind Up the Broken-Hearted."

Comfort is one of the worlds
greatest needs, and yet It is one of
the worlds rarest gifts.
When sorrow enters in. what has
the world to offer? Nothing-it
withdraws. It closes the curtain.
1t shuts the door. 1t leaves US
alone.
1t doesn't even know how to
mourn, and so in some countries It
hires men to mourn-professionalIy.
1t puts Grape on the door. and adds
gloom to the hesrt-it resigns.
1t has no mission. Even its COM
mittees stand mUte-they don't
know what to say.
Its pleasures recede-they do not
function. They mock. They hurt.
They make one heart-sick.
Al such an hour Christianity
knocks at the door. It comes in.
1t sits down-"to comfort all that
mourn. to bind up the broken
hearted"
This is the program of Christian
ity. This is why it wins. for it has
almost a monopoly OF comfort
Grinding God"
Christia nifty is the result Of God
seeking man. All other religions
are the result of man seeking God.
Men have looked for God in every
bush, in every tree, in the eyes Of
animals. in the sun. the stars. the
moon-In the idols which they them
selves created.
But Christianity was born when
God sent Christ into the world TO
seek and to save that which is lost. o"
Men have journeyed to the ends
Of the earth to find the God their
hearts craved to know. Rut God
was close at hand-hRd they but
opened their eyes to see Him
1t should not be very hard to
bring together a seeking God and
seeking sinner.

of black sequins, made for matron

Everything about the hat at the left
bespeals the elegant matron. The
shape has a round crown and narrow,
softly curvng brim, covered with black
seuuins. The sequins are mounted on

Trim facing is of malineS. A tall, black
qigrette bears itself proudly at the

feather of the heron but the cleverest
sort of imitation of 1t.
