One so often finds oneself the un- willing or pMsibly the Ignorant pos- gessor of a coilection of knickknacks pcquired by degrees, generally through thoughtful thoughtlessness of friends ~—a few pleces with some slight claim to beauty. others valued because of their assoclation, others, alas, because of thelr cost, all with Nttle in common with each other or with the room-—a collection of trivial “pretty things" of a former day, retained simply because they are there and no one has had the moral courage or possibly recognized the need of weeding out ge good from the bad, giving the good their true worth by that means. Just as the vul- gar may be relled upon to overshadow the refined and artistic, so may the mass of heterogeneous knickknacks be trusted to conceal any possible beauty In any one piece. Few collections would remain intact If thelr owners would bring each plece before the bar for a scathing examination to its merits and excuse for being \ few questions would settle its fate "Are you useful?’ “Are you beautiful?” “Do you harmonize with the character and color of the room?” “Have you a character of your own?’ “In fact, are you In way preferable to the space which you occupy?’ If not, the Judgment should be banishment with- out mercy.- =Harpers Bazar, as every HANDY WALL DESK. A Good and Tuexpensive One For a Small Room, Many a girl who has & small room and is cramped for space wishes she had a spot in which she might put a writing desk Here is a suggestion for a wall desk which may solve the difficulty. The desk should be fastened to the wall securely at the height. Such a writing desk as that sh in the illustration can be made with a proper Wn HANGING WRITING DESK. few tools. The one represented was made of pine painted white and fin ished with one coat of white enamel The shelves are just about seven inches deep.

Old pieces of brocade suggest lovely possiblities to the home worker. Quite the latest craze is the brocaded book stand, expensive to buy, but quite eco- nomical If carried out at home. It consists of a fairly high backpiece and two sides cut from stout cardboard, the length depending upon the number of books the stand is to hold, while the bottom is a plece of thin wood. Choose a plece of brocade with a pattern that repeats itself in groups, so to speak, 80 you will be able to have one whole design in the middle of the back Cover the three cardboard pleces on each side and finish the edges with a rather thin gold or silk brakl. The side pleces are sewed firmly to the back, the joints hidden by the brald. The wooden bottom must also be covered with brocade and glued strongly to the cardboard. Four little glit knobs stuck underneath serve to raise the stand from the table on which It rests. —New York Press, Ralny Day Graces, Whatever a woman is by nature, can train herself to avold getting ping wet” on a raloy day.

Bad Feeding and Dad Breathing Are Their Most Frequent Causes, Headaches are for the most part the result of bad feeding and bad breath- ing. The flrst Is the more frequent cause, Headache people, as a rule, do not select food to repair the body or to bring health, but eat hurriedly what they like and to satisfy “hunger.” Sick headache women-—and this condl- tion is most prevalent among women eat too much yeast bread, drink too much with meals and eat too many sweats and meats, Bread to them ls the “staff of life,” and, while they have no life, which is heal, they go on eating 1ll adapted food and taking useless drugs to alleviate preventable troubles, says a writer In the Ladies’ Home Journal.

It Is ever true that “the wicked plotteth against the just, and it Is the nature of the devil to accuse the good” (P's. xxxvil, 12: Job 1, 9; IL 4), but the trinmphing of the wicked Is short, and the triumph of the righteous Is sure and eternal, Daniel was strengthened for this great trial by the visions granted him in the reign of Belshazzar (chapters vil and vill), as Abraham was strength ened to resist the temptation from the king of Bodom by the appearance of and blessing from Melchizedek., We all need the light of prophecy and the realities of the future glory to enable us to overcome In the dally conflict Danlel's purpose of heart as a young man not to defile himself (1, 8 nor In any way compromise with the world Is as bright as ever in his advanced years, and although he knew that the writing had been signed by the king which mennt his death If he proved faithful to his God he continued openly to pray and give thanks as aforetime because he belleved In his God (verses 10, 28). Daniel's life was a life of prayer all through and an illustration of the truth, “The righteous shall hold en his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger” (Job xvil, ©») Fortified by the word of God and sus. tained by the blessed hope of the king: dom, the world's favors or opposition were equally vain to move him. See Acts xx, 24. Dut “the wicked watch eth the righteous and seeketh to slay him” (Ps. xxxvil, 82), and Paul sald that the Bpirit testified that bonds and afflictions awaited him everywhere. The ungodly prospered, the law that pecial haraoch in our Jews in eveuls in the king of con changed vative (Verse See also wy nt, | altereth not had Daniel In its grasp, i nd even the love of Darius could not del though he did seek to encour age Daniel the best he knew.

On de liverances see II Cor. 1, 10; II Tim iv, 17. 18 Daniel in the den, with a stone the mouth of it sealed with the king's siguet, was disposed of as effectually as the power of man could dispose of him. So Joseph sold to the Ishmael ites, Daniel's friends in the furnace the Lord Jesus In Joseph's tom! people always imagine valn things, at which He that sitteth In the heavens langhs and holds them In derision (Ps i, 16; xxxiii, 10, 11). Man talks of laws and purposes which cannot be changed, but God alone has the right to talk thus. See Eph. |, 11; li, 11 The night of sleepless fasting (verse 15) Indicated the king's love for Dan fel, but love could not deliver unless It provided one on whom the law could take effect, and we do not read that Darius was willing to take Daniel's place. Contrast John Ill, 16; Gal 1, 20: Hl, 13: 1 Pet. Il. 24; Rom. x. 4: Isa, HILL 85, 6 Not only did Jesus die In our stead for our sins, but God raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, and on that resurrection morning many bodies of the saints arose also and appeared to many and doubtless accompanied Him to glory (Matt, xxvii, 62, 53). This morning of victory In the life of Daniel, which proved such a morning of woe tc bjs enemies (verse 24), should set us look ing up the morning stories and texts of Beripture such as Ex. xiv, 24; Mark vi 4048; Ps, xxx, 6; xivl, 6, margin; xlix 14; 1 Bam. xxiii, 3, 4. There is a class of people for whom there Is no morning (Isa, vill, 20, Rev Yer). The title “servant of the Living God” should remind us of 1 Sam, xvii, 20 260: I Kings xvii, 1; xviii, 15: 1 Kings v, 16; 1 Thess. |, 9, 10; Rev, |, 18 The Living God Is also the Lord of Hosts, hosts of angels and redeemed people and worlds, and since one angel has the power here set forth (verse 22) and also In Isa, xxxvil, 36; Acts xii 6-10, and these angels delight to obey God's word and minister to His saints (Ps. clll, 21, 22; Heb, 1, 14), what hap py, victorious lives the saints should live, Daniel suffered the extreme penalty of the law and came forth from the place of death, beyond death and judg. ment, without any manner of hurt up on him, So shall It be with all who by iver, my was than he kne 11 deliver thee" oe upon vr but faith in Christ are dead with Him, | buried with Him, risen with Him. : : ‘Week's News Condensed.

Rowe of the Univer sity of Pennsylvania has just returned from Europe after spending three months In the study of municipal own. ership, most of the time In Germany and France, In Germany about thirty cities have nequired title to their street ear lines In the last ten years, The success of this movement he attributes to the fallure of private corporations to furnish adequate facilities. He finds that the financial results have been dis. appointing, but thinks that this is due in part to the heavy payments which cities were compelled to make the com. panies as indemnity for unexpired | franchises.
