To Worship God.

If there were no future-no judg-
ment-nothing but this earthly life,
and sheer extinction at the end of it,
prayer might still be prompted by
sort of faith in a ruler of life-in dis
penser of its blessing; praise might
now and then be suggested by Oc-
casional gratitude; but the greatest
of all motives for worship, public and
private, would not exist. AS it is, we
Christians adore our God, the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirit-if in
telligently-we adore Him with a view
of that vast eternity which is certainly
before us, and compared with which
the claims and occupations of all here
are infinitely little. We try to learn
In worship, as by Gods grace we may
TO tone the manners, the occupations.
the mental and moral bearing which
will engage us in the countless ages
of life to come.-H. p. Liddon.

MAKE THE FARM HOME A HOME

How many farmers have made
study of their places to see if they
have the things which so to make 6
happy home? We believe every farm
ought to have some provisions fol
music as well as place for the hens
to roost and bins for the grain.
One one farm we found three must
cal instruments, all in a sad state Oh
decay. One was an organ, so OF
more years old, which had to be
pumped by hand, one harmonica OF
mouth organ and one old banjo which
the hired man had left six years ago.
All the banjo strings except two were
broken. None of these instruments
were used because none of them could
produce music of any sort.
There were three young persons IN
that home and two parents and all OF
them needed the stimulus and encou-
ragement of music. At least two OF
the children had their hearts set on
leaving the farm as soon as they
could. One reason for their leaving
the old farmstead probably was this
very lack of brightness and cheer. The
profits of the dairy end of the farm
for a few days would easily have pro-
vided for small photograph and
few good records.
We believe that it pays to brighten
up the farm home in many ways just
to make a pleasant living place. A
little paint, a new rug, fresh wall
PAPER, some music, new lamp, or
new picture, every one OF these Things
will help. All of them will mean nome
satisfaction, real happiness, on the
farm.-Milwaukee Journal.

The time is at hand when car
owners will begin to give their cars
thorough ovcrhauling in prepara

Vation is limited and simple. One
OF the first and most important
points, says bulletin of the United
states Tire Company is to get the
front wheels into proper alignment.
Bad alignment is one of the principal
causes of tire injury. The first symp-
tom of misalisnment is rapid wear in
the center of the tread. Examination
OF the alignment should include an
investigation to see that there are no
loose bearings, for a loose bearing
means a wobbly wheel.
Examine the castings OF tires for
cuts. Ii cuts are filled with heal-a-
cut dough the cuts will not grow
bigger.
Tubes should receive special atten-
tion. for once they have been placed
inside the castings they are forgotten.
Test the tubes for SLOW leaks. Put
new plunscrs in the valves even If
the old ones appear satisfactory. The

For years automobile repairmen and
accessory dealers have seen business
slow down during the winter and
carly spring months. But this year
concerted movement is taking
place to induce motorists to repair

Motorists. too, are seeing that the
policy of neglecting their cars
through the winter months and post
poning needed repairs is a short
sighted one. In the past it has SEEM
ed as if on the same morning in late
spring nearly every motorist wakes
up with the conviction that he'd bet
ter have his car repaired. They all tear
off to repairman or accessory dealer,
clamor for quick service. swamp the
shops with work and, as conse-
quence, get just what they deserve
work that isn't and can't be thor
ough.
All over the country repairmen and
accessory dealers are telling their
customers by word Of mouth, by mail
and by published advertising to re
pair it now" Repair it now, while
you can get prompt. thorough service
while the shops are able to handle
your work the way It should be ham
dled-and at less expense to you
Motorists who are wisely needing
these suggestions are going to have
their cars all ready to run at the first
breath Of spring. No tie-ups for them
when lovely nature beckons and the
balmy breezes tell Of wonderful days
to come. The wise motorists are
coming early to avoid the rush.
