old custom when a sheaf full from u
load in the harvest field for the reaper
to refuse to gntlier It up; that was to Im
left for the poor who might happen to
ooine that way If thure were hiiudfuls of
grain scattered acroH the field after the
main harvest had been reaped, limiead of
raking It, as farmers do now, It was, by
the custom of tho land, left In Its place, so
that the poor coming along that way
might glean it and got their bread, Out,

it was love at first sight. Boaa forms an

I learn in the first place from this sub
ject how trouble develops character. It
was bereavement, poverty and exile that
developed, illustrated and announced to
all ages tha sublimity of Ruth's character.
That is a very unfortunate man who has
ao trouble. It was sorrow that made John
Banyan the better dreamer, and Dr, Young
the better poet, and O'Connell the better
orator; and Bishop Hall the better preach,
ar, and Havelock the better soldier, and
Kltto the better encyclopedist, and Kuth
tha better daughter-in-law.

1 ones asked an aged man In regard to
his pastor, who was a very brilliant man,
"Why is It that your pastor, so very bril
liant, seems to have so little tenderness lu
his sermons?" "Well," he repllod, "the
reason is our pastor has never had any
trouble. YYhen ntlstortuna comes upon him
his style will be different." After awhile
the Lord took a "child out of that pastor's
house, and though tho preacher was just
as brilliant as he was before, oh, tho
warmth, tho tenderness of his discourses I
The fact is that trouble is a great edu
cator. You see sometimes a musician alt
down at an Instrument, and his execution
is cold aud formal and unfeeling. The
reason I that all his life he has been pros
pered. Bat let misfortune or bereavement
come to that man, aud he sits down at the
Instrument, and you discover tho pathos
la the flrss sweep of ; the keys. Misfortune
and trial are great educators.

TUB BKAUTT OF rSUVSSHir.
Aaata, I saa in my text tha beauty of on

snots, how many were willing to trudge cestresa of the lml Jesus Christ, and all
off with her toward Juda wkotiiauc bad
to .make that lonely journey? Our the
heroine of my text. One absolutely ono.
I suppose when Naomi's husband wns IW
Ing, and they had plenty of money, and all
things went well, they had a great many
callers. II tit I suppose that after her hus
band died, and her property went, anil she
got old and poor, sho was not trouble!
very much with callers. All the birds that
sang In the bower while the sun shone
hare gone to their nests, now the night hu
fallen.
Oh, these beautiful sunflowers that
spread out their color In the morning hour!
But they are always asleep when the sun
goes down! Job hud plenty of friends

Life often seems to bo a more giiiie,
whero tho successful player pulls down nil
tho other men luto his own lap. Let sus
picions arise about n man's character, nml
ho becomes like a bank In a panic, aud all
the Imputations rush on him and break
down in a day that character which lu due
timo would havo had strength to defend
Itself, Th ore are reputations that have
been half century lu building which
down under some moral exposure, at n
vast temple. Is consumed by the touch of a
sulphurous match. A hog can uproot a
century plant.
In this world, so full of heartlessucMiiuil
hypocrisy, how thrilling It Is to find some
friend as faithful In days of adversity us lu
days of prosperity! David had such a
friend in Hushal; the Jews had such a
filend In Mordecal, who lienor forgot their
causo; Paul had such a friend In Oneslph
orus, who visited him In Jail; Christ had
such In tho Marys, who adhered to him on
tho cross; Naomi had such a one in Kuth,
who cried out, "Kntreat me not to leavo
thob, or to return from following after
thee; for whither thou goest, I will go; and
whero thou lodgcst I will lodge; thy pco
pie .'shall be my pebpleand thy God my
God; where thou dkst will I die, nnd there
Will I be burledi.tba Lord do so to mo'and
mora also. If aught but death part thee
and me."
ritOM DAHKMIUS TO DAT.
Again, I learu from this subject that
paths which open In hardship and darkness
often come out In places of joy. When
Ruth started from Moab to ward Jerusalem,
to go along with her mother-in-law, I sup
pose the people saldt "Oh, what a foolish
creature to go away from her father's
house, to go off with a poor old woman
toward the land of Judeal They won't
live to get across the desert. They will be
drowned In tho sea, or the Jackals of the
wilderness will destroy them." It was a
very dark morning when Ruth started off
with Naomi; but behold her In my text in
tho harvest field of Boas, to bo nffianced to
one of the lords of tho land, and becomo
ono of tha grandmothers of Jesus Christ,
the Lord of glory. And so It often Is that
a path which starts very darkly ends very
brightly.
When you started out for heaven, ohl
how dark was the hour of conviction how
Sinai thundered and devils tormented nnd
tho darkness thickened! All the sins of
your life pounced upon you, and it was tho
darkest hour you ever saw when you first
found out your sins. , After awhile you
went into tho harvest field of God's mercy,
you began to glean In the fields of divine
promise, and you had more sheaves than
you could carry as the voice of God ad
dressed you, saying, "Blessed Is the man
whose transgressions aro forgiven and
whose sins are covered." A very dark
starting in conviction, a very bright end
ing In the pardon and tho hope and the
triumph of tpo Gospel)
So, very often In our worldly business oi
in our spiritual career we start off on a
very dark path. We must go. The flesh
may shrink back, but there is a voice
within, or a voice from above, saying,
"You must go," and wo have to drink tho
gall, aud wo have to carry tho cross, and
wo have to traverse tho desert, and we are
pounded and flailed of misrepresentation
and abuse, and wo havo to edge our way
through ten thousand obstacles that havo
to be slain by our own right arm. We
have to ford the river, we buve to climb
the mountain, we havo to storm the castle,
nut, blessed be Uou, the day of rest aud re
ward will coma On tho tiptop of the
captured battlements ws will shout tho
victory; If not In this world, hen In that
world where there is no gall to drink, no
burdens to earry, no battles to fight. How
do 1 know itf Know it! I know It because
God says so "They shall hunger no more,
neither thirst any more, neither shall the
tin light on them, nor any brat, for the
Lamb which is in the midst of the throne
shall lead them to living fountains of
water, and God sha'.i wipe all tears from
their eyes."
It was very bard for Noah to endure the
scoffing of the people In his day, while he

nations and klmrdotns must look at that
1 one llttlo Incident with n thrill of unspeak
able and eternal satisfaction. So it U lu

HKAOTV Or rKMALK INIIllftTltV.
Again, I seo lu uiysubject an IHuHtrnlluu
of tho beauty of female Industry Heboid
Kuth tolling In tho harvest Held under the
hot sun, or at noon taking plain bread with
the reapers, or eating the parched corn
which lions handed to her, Tho customs
of society of course havo changed, and
without tho hardships and ex pot tiro to
which Kuth was subjected, every Intelli
gent woman will Dud somethlug to do. I
know there Is n sickly sentimentality on
this subject. In some families thero are
persons of no practical service to the house
hold or community, nnd though there are
o many woes all around about thorn In
tho world they spend their time languish
ing over a new pattern or bursting luto
tears at mldulght over the story of some
lover who shot himself! They would not
deign to look at Ruth carrying buck the
bnrley on her way home to her mother-In
law, Naomi.
All this fastidiousness may seem to do
very well while they aro under tho shelter
of their father's houM; but when the sharp
winter of misfortune comes, what of these
butterflies? Persons under Indulgent par
entage may get upon themselves habits of
indoleuce, bill when they come out Into
practical life their soul will recoil with dis
gust and chagrin. They will feel In their
hearts what .the poet so severely satirised
when he said:
Folks are so awkward, thlnirs so Impolite,
They'ro elegantly pained from morn till night.
Through that gate of Indolence how
many men and women havo marched, use
less on earth, to a destroyed eternity!
Splnola said to Sir Horace Vere: "Of what
did your brother die?" "Of having nothing
to do," was the answer. "Ahl" sold
Splnola, "Hint's enough to kill any gen
eral of us." Oh, can It lie possible In this
world, where thero Is so much suffering to
le alleviated, so much darkness to be en
lightened, and so many burdens to be car
ried, that thero Is any person who cannot
find anything to do?"
TIIK BOAST OF MADAM K HE STAEL.
Madame do Stael did u world of work lu
her time; and one day, whllo she was
seated amid Instruments of music, nil of
which she hud mastered, and amid manu
script books which she had written some
one said to her, "How do you find time to
attend to all of these things?" "Oh," she
replied, ,Tthese are not tho things I am
proud of. My chief boast Is I n tho fact that
I have seventeen trades, by any ono of
which I could make a livelihood it neces
sary." And If In secular spheres thero is
ao much to be done, In spiritual work how
vast tho field I How many dying ull around
about us without ono word of comfort!
We want mora Abigails, more Hannahs,
more Rebeccas, more Marys, more Deb
orahs consecrated body, mind, soul to
the Lord who bought them.
Onco more I learn from my subject the
vnluo of gleaning. Kuth going into that
harvest field might havo said: "There is a
straw aud there Is a straw, but what is n
straw? I can't get any bnrley for myself
or my mothor-ln-law out of these separate
straws." Not so said beautiful Kuth. She
gathered two straws aud sho put them to
gether, and more straws until sho got
enough to make a sheaf. Putting that
down she went and gathered more straws
until sho had another sheaf, nnd another
nnd another nnd nuother, and then shu
brought them nil together and sho threshed
them out, and she had an ephah of barley,
nigh a busbol. Oh, that wo might nil be
gleaners!
TilK BTHAY I'ltlVlLKOKS COUNT.
Ellhu Burritt learned many thtngs while
tolling in a blacksmith's shop. Aber
cromblo, the world renowned philosopher,
was a physician in Scotland, and he got
hls.phllosophy, or the chief partof It, while
as a physician he was waiting for the door
of the sick room to open. Yet how many
thero are in this day who say'they are to
busy they have no time for mental or
spiritual Improvement; the great duties of
lite cross tlio neld llko'strong reapers and
carry off all the hours, and there la only
here and there a fragment left that is not
worth gleaning. Ah, my friends, you
could go Into the busiest day and busiest
week of your life and find golden oppor
tunitics, which gathered might at last
make a whole sheaf for the Lord's garner.
It is the stray opportunities and the stray
privileges which taken up and bound to
gether and beaten out will at last fill you
With much joy.
There are a few momenta left worth the
gleaning. Now, Ruth, to the Held! May
each one have a measure full and runniug
oven un, you gleaners, to, t lie Held! And
If there be In your household an aged or a
tick relative that Is not strong enough to
come forth nnd toll In this Held, then let
Ruth take home to feeble Naomi this sheaf
of gleaning, "Ue that goeth forth and
weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubt-
leas come again with rejoicing, bringing
his sheaves with him." May the Lord God
of Roth and Naomi be our portion forever!

Soma Cblcagoans have lately been con-
duaUng satisfactory experiments in hard

Briefly described, the mode of procedure is
as ;jiwsi 7he iron Is put in a furnace

Mo. trouble is experlenoed in going

as heretofore brick dies were necessarily

First fix in your mind that 100 per
cent, is nil that there is of anything, and
there foro nothing can over declino in
vnluo moro than 100 per cent, though it
can advance nny number of thousands.
Abovo 100 tho premium is exuetly in tho
same figures as the per cent, but below
100 tlio corresponding discount is only
tho differenco between 100 and the minor
sum to which that per cent must bo
added to bring it up to 100. Thus, when
gold was at 00 premium, paper was at
07 discount, because a pajwr dollar was
worth but 02 cents. That 1b, it took
this 62i cents worth ofpnper und 00 per

cents to buy a gold dollar. If gold

Uow to Converse.
In conversation it is always well to re
member tho old saying "The language of
fools oftentimes abounds in wisdom."
No matter how wise wo aro wo can learn
from tlio expressed thoughts of others.
Therefore it la well not to endeavor to
monopolize a conversation. It is still
moro unmannerly to forco your own
opinion against that of others, especially
older people. Offer youropinion respect
fully and politely; if it is not accepted,
hold your own counsel. Listen to the
opinions of others, even though they are
less enlightened than you on the subject
under discussion. You may learn much
from their ideas.
flow to Fold an Umbrella.
Many umbrellas aro broken by tho care
less manner in which they aro folded und
put usido after using in tho rain. When
folding an umbrella tho cover should
first bo shaken out until all tho folds lie
freo from tho ribs. Then catch tho ends
of tho ribs near tho handle in tho right
hand, and closing the let hand firmly
around the cover near the point, push
the umbrella through it, gently turning
tho entire structure from left to right
until all is neatly folded. After using
an umbrella in the ruin it should bo al
lowed to dry, handle downward.
flow to Treat a lieggar.
Chateaubriand was once asked,
"Would you recommend me to appren
tice my son to so nnd so;" and ho re
plied, "Learn how this merchant treats
the poor nnd then uso your own judg
ment" There wus a wisdom in this re
ply"that should sink deep into people's
hearts. Our treatment of the poor and
nnfortuuate is the truest indication of
our character. All that can bo added to
this excellent paaable is, When ono who
is in want applies to you for assistance,
imagine yourself In his place aud "do as
you would bo done by."

How to Make Acorn Coffee.
"Acoru coffee'is much used in Ger
many, and preferred by some to the or
dinary coffee. Somo scientists claim
that it is preferable to tho coffee of com
merce, as it does not possess the same
drying properties. It is made in tills
way: The acorns are dried, shelled, split
and roasted. When perfectly roasted a
little butter is added, and then the berry
is ready for brewing. In the raw state
acorns are very astringent, but they lose
this property in the process of roasting.
How to Eipel Insects.
All insects dislike peuny royal; its odor
kills some and drives away others. Make
a decoction from the green leaves of the
pennyroyal plant, or, if these ore unob
tainable, procure some of tho oil at a
druggist's. Steep some pieces of cotton
in either liquid and strew them where
the pests exist or -are suspected to be.
Repeat tha operation when necessary.
Dow to Clean Varnished Walls.
In cleaning varnished wood, paper or
walls it is injudicious to use soap, as it
frequently causes dull blotches or streaks
to form upon the varnished surface. The
best plan is to mix, about a quart of vin
egar to two gallons of water and wash
with tha solution, using a soft cloth.
This will effectually clean the varnitn
and renovate the paint or papering.
