JOSEPH MEETS HI8 BRETHREN.
I.KSSON TKXT-Oen. 42:3-17.

owetli, that ahull ho also reap." Oal.
6:7.
Josoph wns thirty years of ngo when
he readied his position of supremo hu
thorlty, but wo oiiRlit not to allow our
Belvcs to forgot thoso thirteen yeara
or humllintlon, during which ho whs
betrayed, sold Into slavery nnd neg
lected by thoso whom ho befriended.
Yet thoso were dayB of fidelity in his
service, of victory over fierce tempta
tion, of enduring unjust imprisonment
a long period of patlont waiting but
a valuablo period in that now at thirty
years of ago ho comosto this position
of power fully equipped with that
knowlcdgo of men, control of himself
and faith in God as to bo properly fit
ted for the burden of responsibility
thrust upon him.
Did Not Forget.
It The Brothers Need, vv. 3-6. Tho
famine was not confined to Egypt, but
reached over to Canaan, whero Jacob
and his sons lived. Tho desperate
ness of tho famine Is Indicated by Ja
cob's command to buy, "that wo may
llvo, and not die." But Jacob is too
old to travel, henco tho brothers un
dertako tho Journey. Twenty-two
years have passed sinco that experi
ence when Joseph's brethren cast him
into tho pit. They have been yeara
filled with wonderful experiences for
Joseph. Now their nttltudo is changed;
Instead of being his tormentors they
aro suppliants nt his feet. During
these Boven yearB of garnering Joseph
had set up his own family nnd two
sons were born, tho names of whom
wero significant.
Tho possession of a child of his own
would naturally quicken Ills inquiries
aa to his father's household, for ho
assumed that In tho order of events
his father must be dead.
II. A Brother' Memory, vv. M7. Jcv
fieph nt onco recognized his brothers,
but treated them brusquely, demand
ing from whenco they came and the
purposo that brought them hither
(v. 7). Agnln (vv. 8, 9) the text re
minds ub that Joseph remembered.
Only God can forgive and forget. Bui
Joseph is an inspiration to ub that
though we may not bo able to forget
wo can forgive. Tho question might,
bo raised, "Why then did Joseph dis
simulate?" The answer Is threefold:
(1) Joseph desired to ascertain tho
characters of his brothers. Did they
remember? Yes, for they replied that
they were "twelvo brethren." Ten
wero before him, ono at home and
"one is not." That their characters
were not entirely chanced is ovl-
denced by their words, "We aro true
men" (v. 11), which of course wns not
the truth. (2) Joseph desired to know
of his father and of their homo life.
Tho accusation that tho brothers aro
spieB called forth tho statement that
tho father, Jacob, is still alive. Tho
third reason for this treatment devel
oped out of these first two, viz., Jo
soph desired to reach his father and
Benjamin, whom ho had never seen.
Wo do not commend Joseph's method
as being of the highest ethical value,
for his standard was not the standard
of the man who knows Christ. Joseph
is a typo; there is only one perfect
man, Jesus Christ, and Joseph points
toward that promised Saviour.
Guilty Consciences.
Joseph knew his brothers told tho
itruth about their not being spies, but
he also know that they lied when they
'asserted themselves to bo true men
.and that one brother "Ib not," Hero
is tho lesson of mistaken estimates of
one's self and that a man's true vnlua
is known and appreciated. Little did
they realize, however, that their false
hood was being read as it wob uttered
and that the man beforo whom they
were standing was thlB same brothor.
Joseph affected not to believe any of
their story and demanded proof (vv.
15, 16) of their assertions. After three
days in jail he appeared to rolent and
ordered that only one of their number
should remain as hostage. Tho result
of all is shown in v. 21. After Invol
untarily leaving Simeon shut up in tho
Egyptian prison their minds traveled
back to that time twenty years before
and they remembered Joseph's an
guish and distress when they would
not hear, "thereforo is this distress
come upon us." Their guilty con
sciences are aroused.
Jacob's cry, "All things are against
me," v. 36. was a mistake. Jnnnnh
was alive and exalted that ho might
save the life of Jacob and his chil
dren. Simeon was allvo and drawing
his brothers back to Egypt. Benjamin
would como back safely.
Emphasize tho fact that we cannot
forget our wrong acts and that Joseph
was not troubled by any such mem
ories. Also emphasize tho return of
good for evil, Bom. 12:20, 21. Joseph's
brethren wero sowing the fruit of tho
seeds of envy and mallco they had
Bown twenty years previously. So also
was Jacob reaping the seeds of his
deceit, for In spite of his great ma
terial prosperity ko has great anguish
of heart. Wo try to sow and not to
reap, Seo that tho seod thoughts in
tho heart aro right. Tho grace of
(God forgives Bin, but it remains a
terrible fact in cur lives.

SUITABLE AND PRETTY GIFTS
Few Things for Prospective Bride Are
In Better Taste Than the
Easily Made 8achets.
Are any of your friends "engaged?
If so, why not make them some pretty
sachetB for an engagement gift? They
aro always appreciated and can easily
be made. Purchase a quantity of
satin ribbon two Inches in width. Tho
shops offer many bargains in ribbons
at this season. Cut tho sachets In
squares, pad them with cotton nnd
sprinklo with sachet Dowdcr. Then
whlpBtltch tho edgeB together.
Stack a dozen of these together
and tie with baby ribbon. On top
place a flat bow ornamented with tiny
rosebuds made from ribbon. An
eighth of a yard of half-Inch ribbon
1b required for each roso and they are
formed by swirling the ribbon round
and round a center. Foliage may be
made from green silk to accompany
these roses if desired.
This Is a charming gift for tho
graduate. So proparo for June, which
is not far distant.
AFTERNOON GOWN
An afternoon gown of printed silk
over lace and embroidery, set off with
a belt and sash of black satin ribbon.
Crude Colors for Blondes.
Crude, brilliant colors aro seen on
the hats as on tho dresses, and ono

comploxtlon to stand tho combina
tion of certain clashing colors. The
trimmings aro still very high.

FATIGUE A FOE TO BEAUTY
Woman Who Would Retain Charrr
Should Avoid Allowing Herself
to Be Victim of Overwork.
Ovor-fntlguo is a foo to beauty
Even if there wero no lasting effects
from it, which thero nre. a wwii-lnd
look in a woman's faco adds nothing
to her charm, ltnther, it Is as tho ap
pearanco of a faded flower compared
with that of a fresh one. Tho muscles
and muscular tissues become grad
ually weak and show themselves with
particular perversity in ugly rings and
bags about tho eyes, in a lengthening
of the lines between the nose and
tho mouth, and a general sagging.
Fatigue, too, has a direct efTect upon
tho stomach muscles, causing thorn to
sag also, and become unable to work
properly, and this, in turn, reflects
upon the complexion, rendering it Bel
low nnd eventually blotched. So, I
say, avoid fatlguo.
Rest whenever you can. Whatever
tho routino of your day may bo, it Ib
possible for you to snatch a moment,
or, at least, a second or two, here and
there, of complete relaxation. Tako
a long breath and relax, then go on
at tension if necessary, but it is rare
ly, very rarely, necessary, and there
Is a point to bo made much of. Re
sist tension.
Bathe the tired tnro in xntii wou.
It stimulates circulation, and brings
relief, nt least to one's feelings, even
If its effect does not go very fnr be
neath tho Burfaco. Hot water follow
ed by a cold dash is also refreshing
ani especially Is to bo recommended
to the woman of n'ervbuB tempera
ment. A few drops of camphor in ice
water makes nn excellent lotion for
tho rojuvenatlon of the tired faco
muBcles, but it should bo followed by
tho application of a good face cream.
Remove the cream with a dry, soft
cloth and behold, you feel like a now
woman.
Of Black Charmeuse.
Tho feature of tho skirt lifted by
means of a few plaits Is as universal
now as the train. On a lovely afternoon
dress of black charmeuso tho skirt was
thus lifted beneath threo very large Jot
buttons, nnd the fullness wns lnnno.i
ground towards tho back in gracoful
loiiis. ino corsago or this gown had a
very elegant sailor collar of fine laco
and revers of tho so mo in front, mak
ing a chnrming little heart-shaped
opening, which Just rovealed tho col
lar and gulmpo of fine net. A flat
waistband of tho same silk with long
fringed ends covered tho union of
skirt and corsage. Tho sleeves were
long, and set well below the turn of
tho shoulder with a piped seam.
Novel Trlmmlno.

flowers, which aro cut out of velvet

scissors, and aro appllqued to tho

Somehow the conversation drifted
round to tho subject of dreams, from
dreams to nightmares, from night
mares to somnambulism.
"A rotten habit, walking In one's
sleop!" remarked Mr. Brown, tho vll
lago humorist "Do any of your fol
lows suffer from It?"
Young Smlthson, who had always
had a horrid but unfounded fear that
ae was delicate, roso to tho occasion
Immediately.
"Yes, I do," ho remarked, "and havo
dono so for yenrs. D'you know any
remedy?"
"Do I know any romedy? I should
Jolly well think I do!" replied tho hu
morist. "Why, I'll give you tho pro
scription now, and you can tako it
round to an Ironmonger."
"An Ironmonger?"
Young Smlthson thought that his
cars must be playing tricks with him.
"Yes, an Ironmonger," said Drown.
Then ho wroto out tho following
prescription: "Ono box of tlntacks.
Dose: Two tablespoonfuls to bo scat
tered about tho room at bedtime."
Easy.
"I sco you havo a new cook," said
Mrs. Keen, as alio smiled nt tho host
ess across tho table.
"Ycb," replied tho hostess. "How
did you know?"
"I'vo been studying tho thumb
prints on tho plates," replied Mrs.
Keen.
There is nothing moro pitiful than
a life Rpcnt In thinking nothing but
self. Farrnr.
Work might bo more to our liking
if wo didn't hnve to do It.
