A great gold sun In the.skiem above; us, (
A great green world about; '
Fair minds out,
And a blue sea flowing.
And boats with whit sails coming and going,
For the friends w love and the friends who lor u.
flng ho sing:
Life Is a goodly thing.
(The prison stands against the sky
A monument of gloom;
The dead are there who did not die.
Yet dwell within a tomb.
If summers comes or winters go,
They do not seem to care or know.
They do not aing, they do not sing.)
Birds In the orchard and bees In the clover,
Rainbows abloom in the sod;
Lovers abroad.
And somebody singing
An old sweet air on taut strings ringing.
And off in the woodlands the cry of a plover.
Sing ho, I say i
Life ia a holiday. '
'
(The Factory offends the air .
With shrill, imperious calls,
And little children hurrying there
Ars lost within its walls.
It does not matter much, some way,
If bright or dark the outer day.
They do not, sing, they do not aing.)

Don't Send Money to Foreign Missions Until Every
Town in America is Equipped with
Free Hospital Accommodations.
By ELLA WHEELER W1ICOX.
Copyright, 1914. by Star Company.
Let u not send any mora money to
foreign missions until every town In
America of 11,000 Inhabitants ia equipped
with best possible tree hospital accom
modation. A e c o m o datlooa
which will make It
pcealble for svery
poor man, woman
or child who falls
111 of any msJady,
contagious or other
wlse, to receive the
best of care without
expense.
Connie tlout la
famed for Ha liber
ality to foreign
missions. It sup
ports many mlssion
arlea in various
parts of the Orient
and la ever solicit-
u
out for the welfare of the hesthen.
In a asmall resort near New Haven
the child of a poor mother fell 111. The
mother, to support the child and three
other, kept a boarding house and had
little money to spare. The physician de
clared the malady to be contagious.
The' house must be closed and pla
carded, he said, or the child sent to a
hospital.
Friends rallied to thn scene, and the
telephone wss kept busy between the
summer resort and the New Haven hos
pitals. And this waa the result: Ni possible
placa could be found where this sick
child Could be treated tinder twenty-eight
dollars a week.
Finally friends of the mother cam to
her rescue and ralied the necessary
amount.
But what a commentary It Is upon
churches that so much money goes to
the propagating of various creeds In
distant countries while such a crying
need ex lata at home.
Private h -rois (unless they are homes
of largo wealth) are not places for sick
people. Horn are for health. Hospitals
are for the tck- And every town should
be provided with hospitals for the bene
fit of those who have not ample meant
with which to aupply the needs of the
possible victim of lllneee fir accident -
In this great hour of trouble and als
attar which ha.igs over the whole world,
we must not forget Individual needs. In
our sorrow for the oldler and their
families we must not lone sight of the
sick and the needy and the lonely In our
m'dst.
And w must not permit ourselves to
dwell upos thoughts of poverty and loss,
or imagine that we have nothing to be
stow upon the poor, because the food
trusts are increasing the price of living.
Her Is an Inspiring bit of writing from
the Unity columns: read It and practice
and believe tt and cast out fear:
"Many persons complain of their
financial straits without realising that
It is this very complaint which fastens
the condition upon them. 'As a man
thtnketh. so la he,' is an absolute law.
Knowing this, the wise one looks within
his mind for the source of his troubles
and. discovering the specific Idea at fault,
he turns about In his thinking and takes
the opposite course.
"Reasoning from this premise u Is
but natural to conclude that if on wants
prosperity he must think aod Ulk and
expect prosperity and abundance eon
alantly. and then there will be no room
in his mind for thoughts of lack with
their productive quality for adverse con
ditions. We certainly create cor onions
for ourselves according to the character
of our habitual thought, ' The confident,
expectant attitude of mind cpens a
Wilcox on
channel for tho coming of that which la
looked for.
"Every Individual should exerolse a
systematic method of thought, purpose
and practice if he would gain the end
desired. To think prosperity today and
poverty tomorrow create a dual state
of mind which brings Into manifestation
conditions In which both plenty and lack
appesr.
"There Is no power which can prevail
against th Clod-given rightoou will.
The 'I will,' when spoken from the Christ
consciousness, precludes failure. This
righteous. Intelligent 'I AVI II' belongs
In th Inner kingdom of the soul, and is
In constant touch with th spirit, which
always guides aright. There 1s no hesi
tancy, all doubt Is banished, and the
Individual claims with undaunted faith
that ebundan-e, yes opulence, which Is
bin of his father.
"W will use powerful 'I Will' state
ments for our mediation this week:
" 'I will know that God Is my only
source of supply."
'I Will thank Ood dally for the pros
perity constantly manifesting for me.'
" 'I will praise Ood that I recognize
that I am on with him In the riches of
his kingdom.'
" 'I will glorify Ood In the beauty of
wholeness In my body, soul and spirit
and my affairs.'
' 'I will be that which I will to be.' "

Suggestions
When making apricot Jam add a little
lemon Juice. It give an excellent flavor.
When whipping erexm beat slowly for
the first two minutes and then very
rapidly.
If bacon is soaked In water for a few
minutes before frying It will prevent the
fat from running.
Save th vinegar left over from pickles.
It is better than ordinary vinegar for
salad dressing.
Instead of boiling beetroots roast them
In the oven. The flavor will be much Im
proved. Gold embroidery may be cleaned when
it tarnishes with a bruah dipped In burned
and pulverised rock alum.
When washing saurepan be sure to lay
them In front of the fire for five or ten
minutes so that they may dry thoroughly
Inside, and so prevent deteriorating
through getting rusty.
After use, all pudding cloths and Jelly
bag should be washed In very hot water,
and when they have been well rinsed hung
up to dry, where they are exposed to a
good draught.
To give a rich, creamy flavor to coffee,
tak as much mustard as will lie on a
dime and the same quality of salt, and
-..I. wis amount or dry coffee al
lowed for every pint of coffee required
In many hous there are often left odd
lengths of wall p.per. and these should
b carefully preserved. Damage may be
don when moving In. or later, thair
may be pushed roughly against a wall,
and there la a bad tear. 0t a plec of
the paper, scallop the edges quite roughly
and paste It over the place. The mend
will be unnoticeable. But if th house la
not new. and the paper fadtd. the con
treat is startling. In that case, put a
piece of the spare wall paper out of doors
In the sun for two or three days. Dampen
It occasionally. All that ii needed I exposure.

her to attend a "social" with me while
ehs was with some girl friends who were
alo invited to attend by - gome other

go. and Just as khe did one of her friends
called her aside. She excused herself
and went over to the girl. Later on in
the evening I again spoke about the
"social" and then she said she was not
going. She had promised me to go. but
whatever the girl said made her stav

go was respectable and I aro at a loss
why she would 4 attend. DAN.
