TKXT Is. 63:7 "Iot the unrighteous
man forsake Ills thoughts."
This appeal
seems strange, for
Christianity In
sists on Its ration
ality, and ration
ality Implies
thinking. Clod
Bays, "Come, lot
us reason togeth
er, though your
sins be na scarlet
they shall bo aa
whlto as snow,
though they bo red
Hko crimson they
shall be as wool."
Jesus asked the
question, what
think yo ot Christ? Thero must bo
some reconciliation between this claJm
of reason and tho text.
In tho first placo wo must have In
mind tho person receiving tho appeal
ho Is unrighteous. He may bo con
trasted with tho wicked man referred
to In tho same verse, but tho matter
of his unrighteousness, or unregen
Grateness Is tho thing now to bo held
In mind. Then wo must consider the
sphere of thought. The man Is not
asked to forsake all hl.i thinking -for
In sonn things his thoughts are cor
rect, indeed, moro correct than those
of tho righteous man. Thoso things
belong to tho unregenorato state and
ho thinks rightly on them. Ministers
sometimes preach to their congrega
tions on subjocts that are not spirit
ual, and many that aro In tho powa
know far moro nbout tho subject than
tho preacher, and often smllo at hia
lgnoranco. Tho unrighteous man
thinks quite properly on finance, com
merce and politics, but when it corncs
to spiritual things he is out. of hla
realm, Hero tho person who may bo
of very limited Intellectual attain
ments may bo his Instructor. The Af
Tlcan or Korean may know far more
of spiritual things, because born again,
than the educated European. Thus
wo find that tho appeal is to tho un
righteous person, and the sphere of
thought is tho spiritual. Hero Is
where the unrighteous man Ib asked
not to think. And why?
Tho words of tho lord, "My thoughts
are not your thoughts' Imply that
there Is somo unfavorable compar'son
between the thoughts of tho lord and
thoso of unrogenerato man. God's
thoughts are certainly always right.
If this bo true, man's thoughts are
certainly wrong. When man stands
naked before God this fact will be
demonstrated to the confusion of mul
titudes. Wo may also Bay tho unrlghteou.
man should forsake his thoughts be
causo they havo been shown to bo
usually wrong. That man has r.ome
quite correct thoughts in tho spiritual
sphcro may bo conceded, or responsi
bility would be lessened, but tho law
of his thinking is wrong. Habitually
his thoughts aro wrong. A compari
son of man's thoughts and those of
the lord ob given In tho Bible clearly
demonstrates this. When Jesus was
on eartli he said to the Pharisee? that
they thought in their prayers they
should bo heard for their much speak
ing, that Is, a prayer 20 minutes
long was twice as good as ono ton
mUiutes long. Tho Bible declarer) that
men thought God to be as ono of
themselves. Simon Magus thought
that tho gift of tho holy spirit could
bo had for money, and tho apostlo pro
nounced a fearful curse on him. Ho
has successors in these days. Naaman
.furnishes us an Illustration of how
men think as to the conditions of ro
demptlon. He thought that tho
prophet Ellsha would como out and
call on his God and pass his hand
over tho place of tho leprosy but
nothing of the kind. Ho was simply
instructed by tho prophet, who did not
seem overwhelmed with tho great
Syriun's magnificence, to dip seven
times In the Jordan, and his flesh
should bo as that of a little child,
How squarely aro man'B thoughts on
redemption opposed to God's' simple
requirement to repent and believe!
Again, as long as man Is unregen
crato ho has a principle in him that
vitiates all right thinking on spiritual
subjects. Here it may bo sf.id sin
lloth at the door. The stream cannot
bo pure if tho fountain Is foul. Ono
of tho tests of a man's regenerato
stato Is his changed thinking on spirit
ual subjects. Ho sees things) differ
ently, a now world has boon opened
to him.
Another reason for forsaking his
thoughts Is that he Is waBtlni; tlmo In
doing that which has already been
done, even conceding that ho thinks
rightly. One may ask in wonder, am
1 not to think this religious problem
out for myself? No. It has already
been thought out, nnd tho record is In
the niblo. Some ono may say Jhls In
timates ready-mado thinking, and
ready-made things aro to bo suspect
ed. Wo do not suspect a suit of
clothes ready to ho put on If pur
chased nt a roputablo store, nor a
piece of furniture, nor propared foods.
This Is an ago of ready-made things,
nnd If wo havo tho guaranty that tho
maker Is reliable wo may bo content.
t God has thought nil theso things out
No man could have dono it.

Who wouldn't undertake to own a
pretty boudlor cap and gown when
both can bo mado for about two dol
lars and a half expenditure? SInco
manufacturers of laco havo said good
by to the old hand-mndo patterns and
havo turned tholr attention to tho
original designs that can bo made by
machinery, wo havo a now order of
the filmiest and most exquisite laces
that cost hardly more than fine, plain
cotton' fabrics. This adaptation of de
sign to mechanical workmanship has
dono wonders In putting protty things
within tho reach of even woman.
Thoso laces are "woven In wide flounc
lngs aB well as narrow edgings and
can be used Hko any other thin mate
rial. They havo mado a tremendous
advance in popularity this season.
The cheaper, varieties of machino
made laces are not specially durable
but they are not Intended, for gar
ments demanding durability. But with
a modest outlay one can buy the Ger
man Val and bettor grades of shadow
laco and bo sure of their wearing
qualities. It is laundering that Is hard
on filmy lace. It Is so easily dono
that garments made with laco trim
mings should never ho sent to a

Chiffon Motor Bonnet.
Among tho attractive now automo
bllo caps is ono of two thicknesses of
chiflon, mado Hko a sunbonnet. Tho
chiffon is green and bluo and Is shirred
over a wlro frame which fits closely
about tho head and Acres out over tho
face, The Inside of tho bonnet Is bluo
and tho outside Is groen.
Raffia Is also used for automobile
bonnets. A prettily patterned cap Is
woven of colored straws and Is mount

Tho protty nainsook boudoir gown
shown hero is mado up with sleeves
and trimming of the least oxpenslvo
shadow laco which sellB from twenty
five to forty cents a yard. About two
and a half yards of it provldo for tho
sleovcs, trimmings and lace strips in
tho cap. Five yards of ribbon an
inch wido Is needed and two yards'
of baby ribbon. A yard of not nich

very narrow laco edging in ono of tho
slmplo Cluny patterns for tho gown
are needed. Four yards of nainsook
will bo an amplo allowance for tho
body of tho gown. It is easy enough
to figure thnt this bewitching little
outfit can hardly bo callod ait extrav

Tho same design can bo worked

strict economy. Even in theso mate

bo achieved at so small nn outlay of
money, in nny other way.

PLEASE HIM WITHOUT FUSS
Not Hard to Put Some Dainty Hand
work on the Front of Husband's
or Brother's Silk Shirt
A man doesn't like "fussy" things',
but he'll appreciate a bit o handwork
on the front of his silk shirt. Ask
him! No, don't surprise him!
If you aro afraid that you can't
make tho shirt entire, buy one from
bis haberdasher. Tho material best
suited for the purposo is striped
colored stripes about an Inch apart on
a white ground so bo sure that you
get his favorlto color. Most men aro
fond of lavender. Now stamp in tho
conter of tho white ground between
tho colored strlpos, about two inches
apart, tiny designs not larger than a
ten-cent piece down' the front. Thero
is a tiny round flve-potnled flower with
out foliage or stom and with a solid
dot to fill tho contof space whoro tho
petals meet that is easily drawn or
stamped by oven tho novico, nnd looks
well. If preferred, ono can uso tho
moro difficult bowknot or fleur-de-lis.
Pad tho designs well and work thorn
In white silk floss. Floss tho color of
tho stripes may bo used, but It Is
rather conspicuous. Thero is a qulot
elegance about the white on a whlto
ground that most men would prefer.
It is necossary to embroider only that
part which shows when tho coat is
unfastened. Of course, a hand-em-broldered
monogram upon the left
bIcovo pleases tho wearer still more.

New Sashes.
To tho Invention of now sashu
thero Booms no end. Theso long

All smart skirts now nro gathered at
tho back of tho waistline, nnd the,

is distinctly out of tho running. Of
courso, tho fullness Is between tho

hips tho garment must cling closely to
tho figure.
