Many years ago in the good old days
of the judges we find according to sacred
writ, there lived a woman known as
Jfutli the jjloabitcss. To all those famil
iar with the Bible it will seen aimless to
go through a detailed account of that
Jife as given in scripture, so we will
inoivly endeavor to bring to mind some
of the marked characteristics of that most
perfect example of ideal womanhood.
J lor childhood was perhaps spent as
that of most children, which often seems
to the troubled world one unbroken day
of Sdn.-diitic. It is no doubt true that
childhood 'i childhood's mind has
troubles, but when the child advances in
ning through all, filling it with love am
purity, loo, are w.i not told that the
record of bad deeds is blotted out with
the tears of angels while the deeds them
selves are washed and itiacie holy l,y the
blood once shed on Calvary?
Ruth lived and died as others number
less as the sands of the sea both before
and after her. This life is bu' an exam
ple selected from many of the same type
It teaches us humility, self-sacrifice, per
severance and all that is requisite to an
honest upright, life. That as we pur
sue our journey, we should be careful
to select only wheat and never al ow tare
to enter in the gleanings.
tier trials seem yery so yore, sometimes
almost intolerable; but now 43 we view
her life elo we find it in our hearts to
wish thse days of sorrow might have
been recalled f Ah no! No more than
we could wish the lamb whose blood was
offered as a saereel sacrifice miht be
born again to learn if it could find
nobler death.
"Now, in conclusion we cau only trust
that if our li fos work may not; be as great
or as much benefit to mankind as was
that of our subject we can at least do our
duty in that state of life unto which it
has pleased find to call us. Ajul when
the day of judgment comes and we, J lis
reapers, meet on the plains of Jerusalem
may there be no sorrow or sadness but
with the songs of angeles and archangels,
we will go to the home which Jesus our
savior has gone to prepare.

T.y STELLA L-EAC1I.
It is said that Julius Caesar, first of the
Twelve Cics.irs. when besinnincr his
march against Home, came with his army
to the banks of the liubicn, the boun
dary between his province of Cisalpine
Gaul and Italy. Hero he hesitated, to con
sider again the importance of the step he
w.";s about to take; to cross, was to make
n the republic; to remain, meant
war !!!:(
T&ei.ry way the times conies often, as we
shall see by the life of our subject, when
the heart vainly calls o'er the tide of j
years,
Uaek ward, turn liaek wart!, O Time, in your

Years rolled on and she nearedthe age
when according to the custom of her
country, she was to choose her lifes work.
Marriage being the brightest future for
VOiuan at that tjme she decided tp share
the fate and fortune of a youth who had
come from a strange country, who knew
not her gods nor her customs, but in all
those vows made at the alter she was
never known to falter. When she took
those vows she probably saw nothing in
the future but sunshine and happiness.

And do God's readers not think that dur- j
in"- this lime she; was not only gleaning j
utter dettructiou o s his well hud plans
for greatness. At last his decision was
made, he crossed the Rubicon, met with
success in almost every undertaking, un
til he had indeed reached the height of
his ambition he was master of Rome.
As the Rubicon of our lives, let us take
the character. For, as it was necessary
for C;esar to cross the river that he might
pursue his ay to ;tictCGSJ zo js it acces
sary for us to have a character in order
to bo successful.
"Character," says Webster, "is the sum
of decided qualities wich distingush one
person from another;" or, in other words
it is that indescribable something which
distinguishes a man from all feHow-crea-turcs.
A man ma be w eak or very strong as
regards character. A man weak n this
respect is apt to enter upon many more
projects than he can accomplish. He is
ever r ady to foilqw some new piepe of
advice. ;;n 1 in trying to. dp, what cyery-
j then follow tlt plan in every detail
nearly n possible.
One's aim in life need not necessarily
be ones culling, in fact, it should not be,
man should bo something more than a
machine, having no thought beyond simp
ly existing. Kveryonr, undoubtedly, has
at time felt discontented with his lot in
life and has experienced a desire to battle
himself, this longing stimulates him to
exert himself to the utmost in order to
realize his longing. Or, instead of trying
to satisfy this longing, he will "Quench
it, that he may be still content w ith mere
ly living.
One may desire to gain wealth and
after a long, weary struggle still be
poor man; he may aim at obtatning an
education, bnt circumstances which he
cannot goyern prevent his doing so; but
he can aim at a higher development of
character, which is something that is not
controlled by wealth or position, and he
cau succeed in this.
In this life every man has an individu
al responsibility resting upon him. Every
man was put here by the Great Maker to
fill some place into which no one else
would exactly fit. Many people underate
the value of a single individual, they
think one man is not of much importance
and cannot accomplish much.
Think for a moment of the great things
that have been done by individuals; no
vast army delivered the children of Israel
from Egyptian bondage, but one man
Moses.
No learned so iety discovered America,
but one man Columbus. No associa
tion of science revealed the clew to in
terpret the laws of the universes, but one
mau Galileo.
'Tis true that th'y rmiy have had ad
vantage, hut still they were obstacles,
with which they had to contend alone
and whioh they overcame by persevcrenee
ami patience erpjul to that displayed by
Demosthenes, who, to overcome an im
pediment in his speech, went down to
the seashore and putting pebbles in his
mouth talked loud enough to bo heard
above the roaring of the sea, by overcom
ing this impediment he became one of the
greatest orators Greece eyer had.
We may not till the high positions
these men did, we cannot all be leaders
in this vast army of life, there must be
some followers, and if sye do our very
best to be worthy of tho name of a follow
er, then can we each say, "I, like Cusar,
it
pray to Almighty God that you mi
never see such a thin'-' again."
Our own beloved Chieftain who si rved
his country so nobly through nn; great
struggle, and who now lies buiied at
KivcrMdo, prayed for peac. lie had
learned that war. especially "'civil war
leaves nothing but tombs." In time of
etie everyone is happy, buMiioss pros
pers and everything got s on well, while
in time of war there is sorrow, buine.-s
is suspended and a great deal is 1 .t.
We hnve been speaking of peace with re
gard to bodies of nun and now we will
consider it as relating to the individual.
A person to live in peace must ol; v Un
laws of God as well as the laws of n in.
And if ho does this, r.e may re.-1 av- uivd
he will have all the benefits that a.e o'e-
essary to make his life one of pt :t .- . -.nil
prosperity.

In the beginning, God createel the
heaven and the earth, the sea. and all
that in them is; and on the seventh day
he rested from l'liqr. Around him
ay t,te green field, the lufty mountains,
the gurgling brooks, the mighty rivers.
The trees were laden with ripe fruit.
Vbove him the golden sun had shed its
ast faint rays and myriads of lesser lights
decked the sky. His work was good,
peace reigned.
The last finishing stroke of this wond
erful woik of creation was man. All
the glories and benefits of earth were at
his disposal. "Y'po. cannot now, in
fancy, see him 3 he moves with noiseless,
peaceful tread, exploring, investigating
all the wondrous and the beautiful that
surrounded him. How justly might he
have exclaimed, "I am nionaich of all 1
survey. ' liut alas: now soon, now sud
den wa9 the change. Sin overtook him,
and his happiness was ended; his peace
ful days were o'er.
The power the might, the grandeur in
that wonderful word "Peace," was, per
haps, never but once fully realized.
Look at the bounding billows. Hear the
peal on peal of thunder. How vhielis

one unbroken continuance of peace and
prosperity. Wnr having terminated, the
people turned their thoughts to litera:
