Farm Girl Wins Braun Prize.
‘A Missouri girl, born and bred on
4a farm and educated almost entirely
by her own efforts, has won the
Braun prize in competition with the
students of American and European
universities, and will start the com-
ing summer on a tour of the world
with the money her victory has given
her. . She is Mabel E. Sturtevant, of
Brookfield, Mo. Only twenty-six
years old, Miss Sturtevant is a grad-
uate of the University of Missouri,
secretary of the National Teachers
and Students’ Association, has trav-
eled for a season in Europe, and has
been admitted to the bar of Missouri.
Her victory brings her the annual
William Braun prize of more than
$2500.—New York Tribune.
Good Form.
Probably the growing interest in
athletics of all sorts is responsible
for it, but whatever the cause, girls
nowadays run in a manner that dif-
fers widely from the way their moth-
ers did when it was necessary for
them to sprint for a car. Watch the
average girl running for a car or for
any other purpose and you will no-
tice the difference at once. They
place only the ball of the foot on the
ground and they hold their bodies
and heads erect, as any one should
do who is not indulging in a hun-
dred-yard dash. It adds much to the
grace of their appearance, a fact that
may have something to do with their
adoption of the style.—New Haven

Four Walls to Prison Her.
Her record being five years of
scorn of indoor life, Margaret J.
Dunn, a wealthy Scotswoman, holds
the record as an outdoor sleeper.
She sleeps in the open in summer and
winter. A photograph taken two
weeks ago shows her in a hammock,
swung between two trees, with snow
covering the ground to a depth of six
inches. Her two maids reach her by
a path shoveled in the snow. Her
hammock is without roof of any kind.

ing through smart hotels and restau-
rants and opera foyers. Gone the
days when it was a matter of tact
and skill to get near a lady seated
amid frivoling flounces that envel-
oped the legs of her chair and far be-
yond. Ncwadays one hardly ever
lets the skirt drop at all, carrying it
lightly but closely with the hand
dropped at the knee, thus showing
the slim ankles and the handsomest
shoes that ever were made, even
while traversing one’s familiar path
out to the dinner table in the private
home. While seated, one gives a 1it-
tle twist and a kick and the skirt
hem takes its place as a mere back=-

and stockings completing the toilet as

A Pot-Hunting Diana.
When Mrs. Patricia Knowles, of
Reno, Nevada, hits the trail over
Diana’s Pass into Washoe County to
shoot game old hunters stand aside.
No female Nimrod in thé West has
a reputation for such bags. For a
year or more she has been a pot hunt-
er—in other words, shot for the mar-
ket, and with such success that game
in the Sierras has adopted the advice
of Davy Crockett’s coon and notify
her not to shoot, but it will come
down.
Just at this time she shoots ducks
on Washoe Lake. The game law
names a maximum that may be shot,
fifty brace, or some vastly greater
number than any other hunter ever
reaches. But when the game warden
takes the tally Patricia always an-
swers all the law allows. There is
no place like Nevada for ducks in
winter, and strange to say, salt wat-
er fowl, too, which gather there to
take advantage of the warm waters
that rush from the (ot springs in
countless places and preserve the
growth of vegetation in open lakes
and ponds, so that fish, both scale
and shell, can be had for food or
aquatic birds in abundance. ,

‘At night Miss Dunn is incased in
heavy blankets, which are tucked up
close to her chin. She wears a tight-
fitting woolen cap, which comes down
over her neck and ears. Over it is
a cap of rubber, with a flap or hood
which is used as a protection against
snow or rain. A rubber sheet also
covers the hammock, so that the
young woman is dry and snug in the
most inclement weather. Except in
heavy rainstorms and ‘snow Miss
Dunn keeps her face exposed. She

Silhouette of Figure.
Quite the smartest silhouette is
that on which the lines hug the figure
about the knees. Evening gowns
are drawn back at this point by
sashes, or by folds drawn into a knot
at the back or on each side. Tailored
rigs have jackets buttoned from bust
to knees, and if they are slit up at
the sides, or on each side of the
straight back, this slashing is con-
fined by passementerie ornaments or
pattes and buttons; while the walking
skirt below is so straight and scant
that the effect is very mannish.
A whole-piece walking gown on
these same lines buttons from neck
to the heelsdownone side of the back,
and it is trimmed only with beautiful
- ly ornamented big flap pockets that
hang on each side, braidings, em-
broideries, fringes, passementerie all
being used to make these elaborate
in brilliant Oriental or quaint old-
fashioned designs. One such gown
in smoke. gray corduroy has big flat
jet buttons and pockets of gray vel-
vet astrachan and black fringe, with
some rich silver and gold embroid-
ery. A bit of embroidery to match
is placed across the decolletage at the
base of a guimpe of coarse gray linen
net over black satin. TL: long. gray
corduroy sleeves .are slashed open
down the inside of the arm, and, like
the decolletage, is bordered on this
slashing with astrachan. The sleeve
open is looped together at intervals
with small jet buttons, showing an
undersleeve that matches the guimpe.
Further accentuating this scanti-
ness about the knees is the fashion-
able habit that increases daily of
walking always with the skirt gath-
ered up in the hand, this restroussis
nouveau being a decided departure.
Gone the days when one dragged
one’s gown, no matter whether walk-
opah and Goldfield there was no mar=-
ket except San Francisco, and San
Francisco had nearer sources of sup-
ply. There were a few hunters for
peltry, but game that was not killed
for sport was supplied by the Indi-
ans. As to Patricia, she is the wife
of a master builder, once a hunter
himself, who taught her the use of
the gun, in the handling of which
she soon became more expert than
her teacher. But her husband be-
came invalid and the building busi-
ness dropped off, and hunting as a
pastime was relinquished. Then Pa-
tricia looked over the arsenal of rifles
and shot guns with a view of selling
them.
At this moment the idea came to
her to shoot for the market, and the
next morning she was off for Was-
hoe Lake, accompanied by her dogs
and equipped with decoys and guns,
which she carried herself. Her first
day’s sport yielded thirty-two brace
of canvasback duck, selling for sev-
enty-five cents a pair. The Western
canvasback is a degenerate glutton,
feeding on fish, and has none of the
delicacy of the Eastern fowl, which
takes eminence because of the flavor
of the wild celery which he feeds
upon. Still, the Western duck is not
despised. She spends days at a time
hunting, and sends her game into
Reno, sleeping in the open, and
shoots, in addition to ducks, quail,
widgeon, sage hens and deer in sea-
son, mountain sheep, and even bear.
She is credited with igh cinnamon
bears this year.
Mrs. Knowles is a woman of cul-
ture, a graduate of a college in Evan-
ston, Ill.,, and came West to teach
music and married. Physically she
is a match for any man, measures six
feet, and has no occasion to fear
hunting or doing anything else alone,
being skilled in the use of her fists,
and, with a muscle to back them, is
safe anywhere, and thinks nothing of
being on foot in the marshes from
daylight to dark. As a ‘“pot-hunt-
er” she wastes no ammunition, but
her record performance is twenty-six
brace of duck with twenty shots. She
uses a double barreled hammerless
shot gun and a rifle with equal facil-
ity. With a revolver she can hit a
coin thrown in the air twice before
it falls two out of three times.—New

[RAVE HENDERSON
Subject: The Nearness of God.
Acts 17:27: “Though He be not far
from every one of us.”
The consciousness of the reality of
a power outside ourgelves is a funda-
mental in the religious experience of
the race. The understanding that
the inexplicable and: universal exter-
nal potency is Deity marks an ad-
vanced step in the spiritual intelli-
- gence of humanity. The sense of the
proximity of divinity is characteristc
of the most advanced explanations of
the religious experiences of men. That
religion offers the most satisfactory
practicalities and theology which is
possessed of the clearest comprehen-
sion of the reality and presence of
the God in whom we live, as Paul
says, and move and have our being.
A mighty reason for asserting the
supremacy of that religious system
that we call Christian lies in the fact
that in it we have the efflorescence of
the thought that our God is not an
absentee but near. The God and
Father of us and of our Lord and
Saviour Jesus Christ is not far from
any one of us who knows Him and
endeavors to keep His command-
ments, neither do we postulate Him
as far from those who, out in the far
country of iniquity and folly and de-
ceitfulness, are feeding their souls
on food unfit for swine.
The God of Christ is as near as
ever. His Spirit is with us and with-
in us. His presence is a feature and
a force, and may be if we will a con-
sciously accepted fact and power in
our lives.
In the consciousness of the near-
ness of God there is to be found the
power, the peace and the inspiration
beyond compare. And in the sense
of the all presence of Jehovah there
lies the alone hope for the spiritual
regeneration and the moral reforma-
tion of the race.
the nearness of God, moulding force
in the moral life of man and intensi-
fier of spiritual vigor as it is, is pre-
requisite that we may have that re-
vival of religion for which we hope
and pray. It is impossible to teach
a man anything about the supernal
God or to make him understand his
holiest obligations to God and‘ the
children of God until he has a lively
consciousness of the reality and near-
ness of God.
The sense of the nearness of God
makes for power. It strengthens the
arm’ of man and stoutens the heart
of man for Christian service. It am-
plifies the moral faculties of men.
Just in proportion that a man is con-
scious of the nearness of God is he
doughty in the service of God and
careful of the moral integrity of his
life. The man who has little sense
of the proximity of God does little for
Him and lives little like Him. The
man who habitually practices the
presence of God, having an ever pres-
ent measure of and incentive to right-
eousness, endeavors constantly to be
well-pleasing to God and worthy of
His approbation. A The man who
doesn’t have thought of the nearnes
of God never feels the need to live
as God would desire him to live.
The sense of the nearness of God
makes for power not only in the or-
dering of the internal moral life of
man, but it makes for valor in the
warfare against sin. No careful stu-
dent of history can. be cheerful as he
contemplates the morality of the
world to-day from the standpoint of
one who would transform morals by
the power of the will of men. Not
more can we hope to transform the
world by the energies of man than we
are able to rid ourselves unaided of
the grace and empowering of God
from sin. But when a man under-
stands that the God of the world is
in the world, and that the God who
has commanded that we shall rebuke
sin stands with us and abides within
us then the mass of sin Inses its in-
surmountable aspect and the on-
slaught of Satan becomes correspond-
ingly less terrific.
The sense of the nearness of God
makes for peace. It ministers not
the peace and comfort of material
things, though we should never for-
get that by seeking the kingdom of
God first we shall soonest enjoy that
blessed life when all men shall en-
joy the materiai comforts of the
world, but it gives to us the spiritual
peace of God incorruptible, undefiled
and fadeless, which is the gift of
God to those who in sincerity and
truth try to do His will. It ministers
not the : peace of satisfaction with
things as they are. But it does give
us peace ineffable in that it assures
us that though we may be unable to
rectify the evils of the day and age,
though we have neither time nor
strength nor opportunity successfully
to overthrow many a mighty wrong,
God will labor where we may not,
He will be here when we are gone, He
will succeed where we must cease,
He will accomplish in His time what
we cannot. achieve in ours.
The sense of the nearness of God
makes for inspiration. The nearer
we conceive God to be, the nearer we
are sure He is, the more are we in-
spired to do our work in our own
time under His direction, to sacrifice,
to suffer, to be patient, forbearing,
obedient. There is nothing more
disheartening than to attempt to
carry on the fight against sin
unaided by the help of the
ever-present God. Nor is there
anything more inspiring than to un-
.dertake the positive and progressive
program of righteousness that looks
toward the kingdom of God as an
ultimate and ideal, possessed of the
assurance that the God who was near
His people in the past is near to them
to-day. The sense of the nearness of
God gave Abraham hope and Jacob
spiritual vitality. It warmed the
zeal of the prophet and quickened
the pulses of the priests and kings
whose names Israel reveres. It aug-
mented the spiritual capacities of the
apostles, produced Pentecost, com-
forted Stephen, surcharged Paul, en-
ergized the forces which in the name
of Christ swept the Empire of Rome.

has an equal inspirational influence

The Shepherd and the ‘Sheep.
In the nomadic or pastoral state
which still prevails in many parts of
or less of a shepherd. So much that
relates to comfort and subsistence
depend upon the welfare of the flocks
that the calling of a herder. or sheep-
master, in such communities is by
no means.an unimportant cne. The
shepherd’s life is still attended by
hardship and danger. Amid storm
and cold he has to protect his flock,
to defend them from wild beasts, to
guard them from pitfalls. and preci-
pices, to find fresh pasture for them
by day, with good water, and to se-
curely fold them at night, setting a
watch over the fold till daybreak. In
olden times, the staff and sling were
the shepherd’s defensive weapons and
in many places are so still. With
these, and his warm sheepskin coat
and his scrip or bag for food, he was
fully equipped for duty.
David’s: “Shepherd Psalm’ is a
beautiful picture of the pastoral life,
with its freedom from the harassing
and corroding cares of the outer
world and its perfect dependence
upon God. David, who was himself
a herdsman, in that song tells us how
the Good Shepherd supplies every
want of body, soul and spirit; how
He gives to His sheep food for sus-
tenance and water for refreshment,
with perfect peace amid pleasant sur-
roundings; how He cheers them and
helps them to overcome temptation
and to avoid danger, inspiring them
with courage by His presence and His
supporting touch; how He bears
them up in afiliction and spreads a
rich feast for them, to all of which
He adds the sweet assurance of His
continuing love and care—His good-
ness and mercy—to the end.—Chris-
tian Herald.
Gone!
““As thy servant was busy here and
there * * * he was gone!” (1 Kings
20:40).
Gone? Where?
Don’t ask the awful question. It
is agony to me to think about it!
The Spirit said, Speak to him! Tell
him of a Saviour’s love. Tell him his
danger. But I was ‘busy here and
there;” I neglected it, and by and
by he was gone.
I knew I ought to talk to him. I
felt that I was the one God meant to
put the gospel before him, and some-
how I felt I ought to do it quickly—
now, now!
But I was “busy here and there.”
Now it is too late! He is gone!
I shall not see him until IT meet
im at the judgment bar in that awful
day! I know I shall see him then!
I do not fear that day of judgment
for myself, for I:beard and believed

Maybe if I had teld him he, too,
would have believed, and with what
joy we should have met in glory!
But he is gone! Gone without
Christ, without God. without hope!
“It has pleased Cod through the
foolishness of preaching to save them
that believe.” Oh, if I had only told
the gospel to him! If I had only
said, “Jesus Christ died for your sin.
Will you trust Him?”
But I was ‘busy here and there,”
and I put off speaking to him, and

The Life e of the Spirit.
If the Spirit of God dwells within
us, if we are dominated by its power,
if we have surrendered ourselves fully
to Christ and belong to Hing, glorious
consequences inevitably follow. We
will then be filled with and kept in
all times by the Spirit presence—kept
with untroubled hearts in a world of
trouble. We then become the children
of God in the richest sense—sons, and
heirs of the kingdom eternal, while
we must in harmony with the work-
ing of eternal laws, come to be more
like Him who “hath loved us and
gave His life for us.” ‘And we have
then, within, the glorious and un-
gquenchable hope of the resurrection.
‘For, “if the Spirit of Him who raised
up Jesus from the dead dwell in you,
He that raised up. Christ from the
dead shall quicken also your mortal
bodies by His Spirit that dwelleth in
you.” This is the glorious consum-
mation. “To be spiritually minded
is life.”: To surrender -to Christ
brings the life of the higher kingdom
into the soul of man. If we choose
the things that are spiritual and eter-
nal, we shall grow in harmony with
our choices and find ourselves rich
in the treasures that will abide.
A Resting Place.
It is a great thing to come to
Christ. It is the turning point of life.
And .it is a great thing to abide in
Him in the storm and conflicts and
terrors of the world. It is a great
thing to come to Christ; it is a great
thing to abide in Him; but from His
point of view the object of our com-
ing and of our abiding is that we
should go. He wants us as His mes-
sengers, as His fellow-messengers;
His purpose is that abiding in Him,
we should bear the fruit which is for
the healing of the nations, that we
should be the communicators of the
light that shines upon the people that |
sit in darkness and in the shadow of
death. If we do not go we are like
seed which has spoiled in the ground.
He bade us come, He encouraged us
to abide in order that we might go.
Can You Say, I Love Him?
To confess Christ does not imply
the ability to make a good speech;
it does not require
oric and elocution; it simply means
the expression of love, which is as
appropriate and natural for the young
soul as for the ow er to bloom or the
J*-d to fly —F. E. Clark.

Our Two Natures.
There are two natures in man that
are as dista
the old Adam within us if we do not
keep him down in the place of death
he brings us into captivity.
It takes us about all our lifetime
to find out who and what we are, and
when we think we know something
happens to make us think we are
farther away than when we started.
The heart is deceitful above all
things.
“In the sixth chapter of Romans if
is written: “Knowing this, that ou?
old man is crucified with Him, that
the body of sin might be destroyed,
that henceforth we should not serve
sin. For he that is dead is freed
from sin.” And in the eleventh verse
there are just three words to be es-
pecially considered: ‘“Reckon your-
selves dead.” If we were really dead
we would not have to reckon our-
selves dead. Judicially we are dead,
but in reality we are still fighting the
world, the flesh and the devil. Some
people seem to think they have got
away from the flesh, and that they
are soaring away in a sort of seventh
heaven, but they getback again soon-
er or later. You cannot make the
flesh anything but flesh. It will be
flesh all the time.—D. I. Moody.
His Own Pilot.
A bright boy, who loved the sea,
entered on a sailor’s life when very
voung.. He rose to quick promotion,
and while quite a young man was
made the master of a ship. One day
a passenger spoke to him upon the
voyage. and asked if he should an-
chor off a certain headway and tele-
graph for a pilot to take the vessel
into port. ‘“Ancher? No, not IL I
mean to be in dock with the morning
tide. I am my own pilot,” was the
curt reply.
Intent uponreaching port by morn-
ing he took a narrow channel to save
01d, bronzed, gray-headed
seamen turned their swartfy faces to
the sky, which boded squally weath-
er, and ‘shook their heads. We need
not describe a storm at sea. Enough
io say that the captain was ashore
earlier than he promised tossed
sportively upon some weedy beach, a
dead thing thatthe waves were weary
of—and his queenly ship and cos stly
freight were scattered over the surfy
acres of an angry sea.—Expositor.
A Sign of Greatness.
The highest greatnessisthat which
is unconscious of itself. The very
forth-putting of an effort to be great
in any direction indicates that we
Jack that greatness. How true this
is in art, for example, every one who
has had an artist among his friends
can tell. The greatest achievements
made by the sculptor.or painter have
been those in which they have been
least conscious of their greatness.
So, too, in the Christian life, which is
the grandest of all arts, we have not
yet attained so long as we are con-
scious of exertion. If I make an ef-
fort to be humble, then very clearly
I have not reached the perfect humil-

Turn to the Cross.
The cross is the great centre of
God’s moral universe! To this cen-

faith ever looked forward, until the

of all our blessing, and the basis of

ddeaven—in time and throughout all
eternity.—D. L. Moody.

Old Animosities Gone.
Jefferson Davis, name is to be put
back on the tablet of the Cabin John
bridge, near Washington, that span
to carry the Washington aqueduct
across a deep chasm having been
completed while he was serving as
secretary of war. The name was
chiseled off in 1862. ‘There is no
good reason why it should not be
restored, the animosities which it
was once capable of inspiring having
passed into history.—New York Tri-
bune.
Prefessor Percival Lowell declares
the end of the world will come when
some dark: star crashes into the sun,
and he adds that such an occurrence
is sure to come. However, the ca-
tastrophe seems to be a little too far
in the future to worry about, anyhow.

In a scene of a balloon race, repro-
duced in a New York moving picture
show, R. J. Maller saw his younger
brother, whom for three years he had
been unable to communicate with, and,
writing to the officials of the club
conducting the race, was able to ob-
tain his address.

Louisville, Ky., at a recent sale of
rifles discarded by the government,
purchased one which proved to be the
identical gun he had carried through

Talks on Alveolar
TEETH
By
E. Dayton Craig, D.D. S.
INVESTIGATE
MY
METHOD
I have heard .a definition . for a
skeptic, which reads something like
this, “A Skeptic is one who first
doubts, then investigates.”
If you are skeptic in regards my
Alveolar Method “Investigate’’ and
you will be satisfied that it will do
all that is claimed for it.
Investigations are being made
daily and I wonder if you, who may
be reading this article, are ready to
start yours. There must be merit
in my method, else it would not
stand the test of time. I can send
you to patients who are wearing my
Alveolar teeth—you can talk with
them and be satisfied for yourself.
But first of all I would have to ex-
amine your mouth. No charge is
made for examination and there is
no obligation to have work done.
There is no two cases exactly
alike, hence each case has to be ex-
amined carefully before ‘I could say
whether you could be supplied with
these Alveolar Teeth.
‘When by examination it is found
that you can have teeth put in that
will give you absolute satisfaction,
I will be ready to proceed with your
work.
If you cannot call at this time, send
for my booklet on “Alveolar Teeth”
which explains my method fully. It
is free on request.
