O MAN can really love his fellow men aright until he first loves Christ. It is a great mistake to devote one’s life to the good of hu- |. manity, to the betterment of the world, without having first given one’s self to Christ. For we must be saved before we can serve. One is not ready to work for others, to do them good, until he has seen Christ for himself. But, while the Christian must think of his individual salvation first, he may not rest there. Yet that is as far as some people go. They come to Christ and he accepts them, and they rejoice in the thought that they are God's children. But they have no concern for the souls of others. They never carry on their hearts a burden for any life. They feel no responsibility for | the saving of others. Yet Christ makes it very plain that his disciples have a great deal to do with the blessing of the world. He says they are to be the salt of the earth. Saltless Christians are of no use. Christians are to pre- gerve the world and sweeten it. That | their conversion. But what is it in a man that makes him good salt? A religion without love, however eloquent, however seemingly gifted with power, however benevo- lent, is salt that has so saltness. Some- times men tell us that it is love for God that is salt in religion, and then seek to condone their want of love for i THE CITIZENS NATIONAL BANK With Capital and Surplus of One Hundred and Eighty- Five Thousand Dollars.

' ~~ A A A AA, “We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love’—, not God, but—*“the brethren. He that loveth not abideth in death.” If we love God, we shall love our fellows. | Silent Example Means Much, | There is, indeed, a cleansing, purify- ing influence in the mere silent exam- ple of good men in a community. | Though they take no part in the ' world’s controversies and struggles, if they live day after day pure lives, gen- tle lives, simple lives, lives without stain or reproach, they are like salt in their preservative, sweetening influ- ence in the community. Salt works ' silently, without advertisement, with- | out proclaiming its work. There is al tremendous power in simple goodness, | though it be not heard in the streets.

Whole Duty of Man. “Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth”—the ancient coun- gel is ever timely, since there is al- ways on hand a. new generation of plastic youth to whom this call to di- vine worship and service applies with appealing tenderness and force. The beginning of wisdom is th fear of the Lord, and the “conclusion of the whole matter” is the same. The “whole duty of man” from childhood to age ig the use of himself and his powers for God. This is a grand scheme for life, and it is the only program which renders life a matter of any moment, an interest of any account. Fashions and Fads. Collars, jabots and fichus, if they give the vest or chemisette effects, are fashionable. Draped muffs of velvet are ex- tremely large. They are frequently elaborately trimmed. Two tone or plaited hosiery comes in a wide variety of colorings and combinations of colors. Very smart are the women’s shoes dull soft kid without tips. To conceal rather than outline the | figure is the distinquishing note of] the up-to-date blouse. Small draped hats of velvet, with a single feather fancy tellingly | placed, are in unusually good taste. | Duvdtyn, which has made so strong an appeal this fall for suitings, has | much in his favor besides the ex-| quisite colorings in which it is to be had. It isnot only soft and supple, | but has considerable warmth. A distinctive note of embroidery | which is used ® on gowns this season is the degree to which it is padded, and when the handwork is done in worsteds the padding is accentuated. et - — Catholics Build 3873 Churches.
