Courtesy on both aide compels an occa alohal acceptance of such unreasonable In ', Vltationa. In the ate of the Confirmed Commuter there was no doubt at least In his own mind -that the Hupeful Housewife waa to blani. "I knew when you told Mrs. Brown wed i up there Saturday evening that one of these hot Spells would come along," he rniiajked grumhllngly. ' Don't you think ,)(u could manage to bp off In acme way?

"I don't- know what's the matter with nie, but I, feel very queer besides we're not Invited to dinner she said supper 1 Heard her! Don't you think that makes some difference 7" "Dinner or supper,'' pronounced the Hopeful Housewife firmly, "we've acoepted snd we've got to go!" ."And herj 1 ve been looking forward to a quiet Saturday afternoon In the coun try!" the Confirmed Commuter remarked Sadly. "I had thought of the fine time we would have watering the f owers, pruning the rote bushes and perhaps having din ner server! In the Bummer house with some cooling gin rlcke7""S-r Iced tea to glvs us n appetite." His wife's eyes sparkled. "That would be great," she d&id. "That's Just what I'd love to do, but " The shadow of duty crossed her face ones more. "Instead wa are going to a Dutch supper tn Harlem!" she continued. The Confirmed Commuter knew finality when ha heard It and raid no more. But all week he sought vainly for some way of scape. The day of the party dawned. The air Serious History in Comic Vein 'Whenever' light my fragrant Havana or take a small, sample of fine out," said Rhow-Me Pmlth, plain and fancy Missouri historian.

" 'There Is nothing In the royal sidewalk eontractlng business,' said Sir 'Walter. .'I will run ever . to. America and form a trust.' .

IValter wanted to shoot first and In vestigate afterward. Then his better Judgmsat prevailed and he turned In a still alarm. Ths Big Chief of the flra depart ment, when he arrived, explained to Wal ter that the stevedore person was acting well wtthln his legal rights and was only carrying out a pretty general custom pre vailing among stevedores and In even hlg'hejf' circles of society on this side. To clinch the matter the Chief gave Sir Wal ter a nieerscaum and a paper of shag and told him to smoke up.

"It's had enough to have to go to. town at all on a day like this," grumbled" the Confirmed Commuter, "and I have to work hard till 1 or 3 o'clock, come back to Jersey to dress and drag you up to town again to keep that engagement! It's too much." Nevertheless when his telephone ring goon after he reached his offlcs he recog nised the cooing voice of Mrs- Brown long before she spoke her name. "You know me! Why. how clever f you! Of 'rourse I would recognise your voice anywhere! It's so strong, and deep and manly, you know! I Just called up to remind you of this evening. You can get away In time for the party? Oh, I'm so glad! I've been looking forward all week to seeing you and your wife, of course.." The Confirmed Commuter wes grinning fatuously when he hung up the receiver. He hurried through his work and, reach ing home an hour earlier than he had promised, found his wife working over her flower beds. "Isn't It lovely out here!" she said. "I'vs been thinking, dear, that If you're really set on staying at home tonight I-might telephone and beg off from the party after all." "And disappoint that poor little woman who's had all the trouble of getting ready for us!" the Confirmed Commuter ex clalmed Indignantly. "Who ever heard of such a thing!" (Copyright. 11I, by the N.

Christ Is the conqueror of all our foes. He Is the iieifeot Saviour from all sin. To restore Vn us the Image of God, which Is true holiness, and present us faultless before the presence of His glory with ex ceeding Joy, Is ths mission of the Christ. For this purpose Christ died for our sins, arose for our Justification, sent the Holy 6pirit for our tanctlficatlon and enflure ment of power for service,' and He llveth at the right hand of God interceding In our behalf. We can become "more than conquerors." but not before Christ has conquered In us. He cannot conquer In us until we have fully surrendered ourselves to Him. "Full ness" Is the low-water mark of the Cnrts tlan life; "overflowing" Is the glorious privilege. Christ came not only to give life, but life more abundant. The salva tion He brings shall be In us not only a fountain springing up unto everlasting life, but eut from our lives shall flow rivers of living water. Booh a life cannot be ours without a complete consecration and a full assurance of faith. God de mands a holy church because He Is holy. He has made all provision necessary to make and keep us holy here and forever. Death is not the saviour, but the wages of sin and the last enemy that shall be destroyed, but Christ Is able to save unto the uttermost. The true life of holiness Is the life or Loretta's Looking lf a time-honored tiy girls custom. And surely one of the fifty-seven or more varieties of making a man fonder or mad der mors honored In ths breach than In the observance. It is all very nice and grand for some superior girl to say that "she certainly would not want a man's lovs tt she had to work for It!" It sounds well. But there la not one girl In 10,000 who would not, tinder th 'spell of a real attraction toward a. man. consider the ways and means by which his Interest might bs deepened. Personally,-' I think" every girl has a right to use. any legitimate means to win what is th best the world holds for her, a good man's !ov. Men can do all In their power to 'win the girls they want. And, though ths ways are so different, so ought girls. But this jealousy method Is a bad ons. Just now I hava proof of Its Ineffective ness. It Is a letter, between ths lines of which I can read a tragedy. "My dear Loretta: What can I do to win back the man I love?

There Is a phrase, much In use there days "power for service." But let us remember that the Holy Pplrlt will not ,dwell In unclean hearts. True holiness, .without fanaticism, Is the greatest power In the church of Ood today. Christ de mands a holy church without spot or wrinkle.. IrJ such a church He will abide In divine power. The church must be sep arated from, though not taken out of the world. Christ promised the church that the unbelieving world would hate It, because It hated Him. But If Christ Is all In all for the church and the church keeps His Glass - Reflects Girl Who closely angry, and he deliberately asked me to break the sngagement Of course, my pride made me do It Instantly. But I love him. What shall I do? 'BROKEN-HEARTED GIRL.." I do not know. I can tell you what you should not hava done. Bftt, I reckon, you know that now. Of course, If you had not such a heavy equipment of pride In your mental armory, you might ask the man's pardon Ilka-a lady. It might not restore his love for you Indeed, It will not 'If It haa died under ths fool's-flre of the Joal-J ousy you tried to awake but you would, have your self-respect. Of course, I know that girls who descend to the Jealousy method place a mighty small value on self respect, ao the reward jXes not - appeal. You want ths man. I earn sympathise with that desire, too. Maybe, though, you have cried "Wolf!" once too often; and he has lost Interest In you. He might oven think that ths humblest apology you could make, the most contrite acknowledgement of your silly and insulting trick, was Just another way to regain his allegiance. That would be pretty bitter experience. . It occurs to ms that the kind of lovs ' he gave you seemed valuable to him.

The church will not win the un believing world by Joining hands with the world. But by beintf out and out fo: Christ and Christ being all In all for the j church the Holy Spirit will, through the I church, convict the world of sin, of right. ousness and of Judgment, and sinners wll be saved through the almliihty power cl I God and saints u lit be sanctified througi I the same power. The true holy life la filled with the love of Christ and the mind of Christ. Such a life can not be Inactive for when It be comes Inactive It ceases to be holy. It Is the will of Ood thst HIS people should have their hearts established unhlameable In holiness before Him. Msn Is not the standard nor the Judge In regards holiness, hut God over our Father. Men with un clean eves may say we have a devil for they did so with Christ, but if our heart I condemn us not then have we confidence towards God. This Is the satisfying life for the Individual as well as the church. This Is the life with the deep settled peace of God that passeth all understanding. It ts the life that rejoices with "Joy unspeak able and full of glory." It Is the life that stands firm even In the most severest tempest and storm, because It is firmly cemented to the "Rock of Ages." The true holy life Is looking and waiting with Joy for ths second coming of Christ. ' The coming of our Iord Jesus Christ Is a soene of Judgment for some, of Joy and glory for others." "Be ye therefore ready also; for the Bon of Man cometh at an hour when ye think not." Makes a Man Jealous J excitement and flattery that a man's Jeal ousy gives some girls, may havs shown him that you had no taste for the calmer variety which peacefully mirrors ths per fect trust on which it rests. As I said, I don't know what you should do. Perhaps you havs dona enough. It may be the best thing for you to do Is just to keep quiet now. If he loves you. he will coma back. But, obviously, he Is the kind who will not be yanked around and emo tionally mauled by any girl. I am like you; I, too, feel attracted to the man. I wish your experience with him would show other girls the result of Illegitimate ways of love winning. A man must be a great lover of a great fool to stand such treatment. Great lovea and great follies are not a part of our common-sense sge. At least, they are not frequent. It behooves a girl to act as It ths man has a limit to his loving as well as his loolishneas. Not a Real Weapon. "You are charged with carrying a rasor," said the magistrate; "what havs you to say?" . "But hit's a safety razzer," pleaded Rastua. "What difference does that make?" the court asked. "Well. Yo Hono', a safety razzer am car ried only fo' de moral effect." L-ippontott's. This is fle Day We Q7ebrate May 20, 1911. Name and Artdress.
