Dlfflmltr They Kzperlesice ! Obtaining Meaas of Kors laa a livimi. One fact which stood prominently out in the statements Bade at the an imal DMetiDg in London of the Society for rromotiiiff the Employment of Women, because, perhaps, of the em phasis gives it by the chairman, Sir Owen Roberta, wus that there were 2,000,000 more woaien in this country than men, says the London News, Ob viously, therefore, the difficulty of ob taining work for such of them us had of necessity to earn their own lWinjr was greater even than when males had to be dealt with. And this was increased by the comparative difficulty hitherto experienced in providing the necessary technical training for them. On this point, however, Sir Owen Bobert point ed hopefully to the effort now beinj? mao'e by the county council in estab lishing schools of domestic economy. The chairman also pleaded for special consideration for gentlewomen who had reached middle life without baring acquired skill in work of u definite kind, these being the saddest cases that come under the notice of the society. Lady Knight ley, of Kawsley, who moved the adoption of the report which dealt with the work of the for tieth year of the society, pointed OUt that the market for women shorthand writrrs und typewriters was over stocked, and suggested that women should turn their attention to dairying and the direction of laundries. TOLD BY THE FACE. I'ny aloaraoaslata Can with Much Cer tainty Tell a Mau's Calling; by Ills 1'catiici, "A man's occupation or condition has more to do with making his face than most people think," observed n gentle man who is somewhut of a juilo of character to a Washington Star w riter. "Intellectual pursuits, like the studies of the scholarly professions, when coupled with temperate and good moral habits of life, brighten the face and give the person u refined und superior look. Magnanimity of nature or the love of study and art will make a bright, glad face, but, contrary to this, a man may hnvu, a face that does not please anybody, because of a love of self to the exclusion of others), notwithstanding his learning and worldly shrewdness. Soldiers get a hard, severe look; over worked laborers constantly look tired; reporters look inquisitive; judges be come grave, even when off the bench; the man who has had domestic trouble looks all broken up. "An example of the ludicrous side of this subject is to see a third-class law yer stalking around a police court look ing as wise as an owl. Tho business makes the face, I say. There's the merchant's face, the ministerial face, the lawyer's face, the doctor's face, the hoodlum's face, all so distant each from the other and singly, and I seldom fail to recognize those callings shining through the faces. And what city-bred boy cannot recognize a genuine farmer the moment he sees him on the street?" JOHNNY ON THE SPOT. The Nmaii Doy Who Old .Not Overlook the Chance of (iettlnif a Job. The young man came out of a Jai finlle street tailor shop with a hammer in one hand and a small piece of board In the other nnA gazed languidly up ami down the street. It was nine o'clock In the morning, says the Chicago Chron icle, and the thoroughfare was crowd ed. After a brief survey lie turned to the doorway again, and, producing a nail from his pocket, liegan to fasten the board to the door frame. Then it w as seen that it was n sign, und it bore the magic words: ! V ! : BOY WANTED. : i The young man had struck the nail about four feeble blows when ho felt his striking arm plucked by the sleeve. He turned his head. There stood the boy who wanted the job for which a boy was wanted. "Did you hire a boy yet ?" he asked. "Great Scott, no!" said tlie tailor's assistant. "1 haven't got the sign up yet." "Well, you don't need to put It up now," said the small boy. "I'm here. What do you want of the sign?" Which, impressing the young man as pretty good logic, he pulled out the nail again and took sign and boy into the store. A Queer Advertisement. The London duily newspapers are famous for queer advertisements if for nothing else. A "personal" which appeared recently in one of them reads: "Wanted A respectable gentleman widower preferred to marry the house keeper of an aged gentleman, who has been an invalid for years, and who re Speeta her ns a good and true servant, whom he would like to see in the happy state of matrimony before he dies. She has had three husbands, but is willing for a fourth." Makes the Shah Marvel. The shah of l'ersia thinks tbnt the art of printing transcends all others and has a particular admiration for his court printer, lie has lately seen a typewriter and the Idea that "printing" can be accomplished by the mere tap ping of the keys was almost too much for him.

Malachi's proph ecy begins with the statement of a great ! id. which fact Is itself nn argu ment ur.d appeal for right conduct 1 have loved you, snith the Lord. The reply wss. "Where i bast thou loved us? How do we know you love us? What have you done to show your love?" II. 'The Mean Way in Which They Treated Their Loving Ood, Vs. ML The prophet shows them why they have been treated as Uiry txpectcd 8 good Heavenly Father to treat them. They would net permit it. V. S, "A son honoureth his father." That is the normal, natural and usual way. "If then I be a father, as you call me, and whose fatherly love you expect, 'where la mine honour?' Why do you not treat me ns a father?" "O priests!" The religious leaders of Un people. "And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name?'" They either tried to brazen it out, or their oon sclenees were too dull to realize what they had been doing. V. 7. "Ye ofTer pointed bread upon mine altar." That which they could not use themselves they ofTorsd In sacrifice. V. B, ' "The blind for sacrifice the lame and sick." Whatever was worthless and could not be sold or eaten by themselves they offend in sacrifice. "Is it not evil?" An insult, a piece of wlfUhness in the guise of piety. To how them that this Is so he bids them "offer It now unto thy governor." Would you take such a present as that w hen you went to honor him, or ask a favor of him? V. 9. "And now, 1 pray you, besseoh God that he will be gracious unto us." That Is, apply the same reasoning to God, As you take a present to the gov ernor when you wish a favor, so bring your polluted bread, and your sick sheep, and your blind lambs, and, pre senting them to (iod, ask your favorsof him. Yet, "this hath been by your means." This is what you really have done, and yet you wonder that you have not received all the favors you have asked! V. 10. "Who would shut the nought?" You are supremely selfish and will nothing for love, nothing from tho heart. V. 11. "For." I have no occasion to accept audi offerings, "for" there is au abundance of true sacrifices elsewhere. "My name shall be (U. V. is) great among the Gentiles." "The present as foreshadowing the future." "Incense:" A type and expression of prayer. "Of fering." Bpiritual sacrifice's of praise, love and obedisnct. IIL The Conditions of Spiritual Prosperity. Vs. 8-12. After setting some other duties in the right light, and showing that judgment swift and sure was coming upon evil-doers, the prophet returns to the subject of dis honoring God by their neglect or per version of their religious duties. In chap. 1 It was through offerings, here through tithes. V. B. "Will a man rob God?" Can any dare to do such a thing? "Yet ye have robbed me. Wherein? In tithes and offerings:" The tithe, was "the tenth" of the increase of their property, the produce of their orchards, vineyards, flocks, herds and all their gains. V. 9. "Ye are cursed with a curse:" (See Deut. 28.) They had expected to gain for themselves by so much as they withheld from God. V. 10. "Dring ye all the tithes into the storehouse:" The chambers which surrounded the temple on three sides. These had been so empty that In Xehe miah'l absence one of them had been fitted up for the abode of the heathen Tobiah (Xeh. 10: 38; 13: 5-0, 12, 13). "And prove me:" Kven if you are poor, and may have to deny yourselves, put me to the test, and sec if my way is not better than yours. "If I will not open you the windows of beavefl:" A poetical and prowrbial expression, .signifying a great downpouring which is fancifully ascribed to the opening of windows in the sky (Gen. 7: U 2 Kings 7: 2). F. E. Todd. "Pour you out:" "F.mpty out," as if Goel meant that he would empty forth his vast reservoir of blessings. Cowlcs. V. 11. "1 will rebuke:" Warn off, prevent from coming. "The devourcr:" Lit., ester; I. e. V. 12. "All nations shall call you blessed:" Happy. So great will be your prosperity and happiness that the fame thereof will extend to all nations, as In Solomon's time. "A delightsome land : " A lovely place to live in, a para dise. Giving for Christ's cause and the good of men is a great privilege, to be soaght After, longed for. God doe not need our gifts. The wealth of the universe ts his. Hosts of angels are ready to :arry out his will. But we need the privilege of giving, of helping our fel '.owmen, of expressing and enlarging ,ur love and gratitude to God. Spear Points. A half success may be a whole failure. The place of prayer become the bos sm of God. He who falls before Him will be raised beside Him. The greatest motive force are the ones that cannot be moved. To jump down a man's throat ii a poor way to get to his heart. If our hands would touch humanity, jur hearts must touch Heaven. We sigh for the martyr's testings snd neglect thepetty persecution which God permits as preparation for them. Barn's Horn.
