There am what the metaphyaiciana call "immediate troth." that is. truth in eon nection with which our knowledge is intui tive, and where it comes in as the direct and undeniable testimony of the sense*, but as a general thing, acquired truth is the result of work done, the issue of a bat tle which has been won. In other words, truth haa to conquer before it can com mand. But in conflict or warfare of what soever kind, disguise is ever a worse foe to meet than denial. And I snppoee that what is frequently affirmed is probably true; namely, that the Christian religion has always suffered more from those who, sometimes intentionally and sometimes un intentionally, haye perverted and misrep rensented it, than it has ever suffered from those who have even formally opposed it. There, for instance, is the somewhat trite criticism that Christisnity ns a scheme is narrow in its spirit and contracting in its effect : under it as a system men do not at tain the highest possible development, nnd. therefore, they cannot display the. fairest and finest fiber of human character: it de velopes the passive and uninfluential. more thsn the puissant and productive, elements of our nature: it keeiw its hand on life's brake to chcck and hold in. rather than on life's throttle valve to open and let go; it is in face a lion, but in heart a deer; the tliou shalt nots outnumber the thou *halts; there is an unmistakable flavor of pusil lanimity, of cowardliness, of spiritlesnness. which nothing cverv wholly removes from many of its principle* and professions; re pentance. humbleness, meekness, forgive ness of injuries, relinquishment of rights, submission to what cannot be seen, accept ance of what cannot be known ? th*se are not among the heroic virtues. All this Its* been felt and expressed, not onlv by the superficial nnd scofiing, but by the respect ful and thoughtful. And certainly it is all forceful.

Stanford White, the architect, ha* a fad for collecting statuary which often affords his friends a chance to air their wit. He has set oo many sculpt :ircd figures on his lawn--Gra mercy park and Lexington avenue ? that he has had to put some later ac quisitions across tho street on the grasa plot, of his friend, H. W. Poor, the banker. j Oliver Herford, whose caustic wit docs not all go into his hooks, passed th*?so decorated lota with a friend from New Orleans. "What's all th?*t?" asked the stran ger. "Oh.

Rare ly has It lasted at long ns during Its last revival. AS TO BODICK FULLNESS. One must bave sufflcieul fullness for tbe front of the bodice. and yet not too mucb, nor In tbe wrong place. Tbe bodice must ueither look baggy nor should It pouch. The fullness must be from side to side, but there must Lh> little or uo droop to the folds or pleats. The fullness must be kept well to tbe front nnd not be allowed to push around under the arms. The lack of pouchiug Is especially noticeable In evening gowns, ns dis tinguishing them from those made last season. Bodices worn in the daylight hours are permitted somewhat more droop. Tbe next arrangement or bodice full ness Is more noticeable in profile than iu front view. CONTROL YOU It NERVES. When you sit down to rest, ho still, and do not start at every little noise. A Ions continued noise might have a wearing effect npou the nerres, hut the little noises that are over in a mo ment hurt 1x0 one, and it is uuite ab surd to jump and start as some people do at them. Control of nervous move ments acts beneficially on tbe nerves themselves; whereas, if the nerves are allowed to rnn riot, bodily health is Impossible. Uncontrolled nerves are responsible for terrible disasters caused by panics in tires and other ac cidents. which often result in the loss of hundreds of lives. <>iviug way to nerves without a struggle for mastery over them is, therefore, not only very bad for oneself, but exceedingly sel fish to one's neighbors. livery one should strive to attain a ouiet. even manner under all circum#tances, and then, when an emergeney comes, the ehauces are that they will be able to aet with cool courage. IP YOU ARE GOING ABROAD. For an ocean voyage and for short trips when in Enrope. be content with as few clothes as you think will suf fice. Here are some suggestions as to what have been found necessary and appropriate: A dark tailor suit, soft silk, flannel or cotton blouses, lisle, combluatiou underwear, short under skirts, a wrapper, thick shoes, over shoes, slippers or low shoes, damp proof hat, raincoat, and a China silk, black grenadine or chiffon dress over 'black silk for evening wear at hotels. To this list it is advisable to add a rainy day dress with shorter skirt to save the tailor suit. Some prefer pongee or wash silk night dresses, which may be easily washed and ueed no ironing. For a trip by sea It is a good plan to wear old uuderwear. which may be discard ed at the end of the journey; so if worn underwear is mended and put aside la anticipation o t a irip, u large laundry bill rjry th is be avoided. Money aud valuables may be car ried ir. many ways, in safety belts, in envelopes cf linen or chamois worn I about tho neck, or in safety pockets. Carry In your purse only what money you cau think you win be called upon to us? in ihe course of a single day. ESXCVATIXa A FARM HOUSE. Tho problem of renoratiug on old faruihous? Is always n fascinating one, cays Harper's Bazur, In auswer to a correspondent. The difficulties are of ten many, but one can enjoy satisfac tory results all tbe more on that ac count. Gray paint, with white trim ming*, will be very attractive among the green trees, especially when you i::ive succeeded In covering It with iry. Keep the gray as light as possible, so as t> avoid the gloomy appearance which a darker color is apt to give. Your idea of keeping the rooms in hn ninny by using tones of the same color is a very good and very interest ing to work up. Taking up the par lor first, let this have a pale yellow da wn sk paper. Paint tho woodwork white, and remove the rail, since it seems to lack purpose here. Have a rug on which old blue or dark blue is tho predominating color, combined with yellows and browns. Cover your furniture with yellow and old blue bro cade. but, instead of denim for your portieres, have a soft looseiy woven mercerized cotton or linen, preferably of golden brown. In the drawing-room, the woodwork can be painted white. For tho walls two schemes have suggested them selves. Move your rail up until It is about four feet from the floor, for tl:e first scheme. From the base board up to this rail have a golden-brown bur lap, and from the rail up a heavy pa per In large conventionalized figures of a rich yellow, toning into the brown of the burlap. For the second scheme move your rail up to within two feet of the ceiling, or. If you have a picture molding there, remove it en tirely. Have a paper of the same char acter as that just xuggested, but In shades of wood browns and tans. Above the rail have a plain tan pa per and continue it over the ceiling. In the small room back of the dining room, have plain yellow or tan paper to harmonize with t hn t in the dining room. The east bedroom would be very attractive with a dainty yellow and white flowered stripe on the wall, especially if you combine with this some of the fascinating Kngllsh chintzes with corresponding design, r.otli will harmonize with your black walnut furniture. I'pstnlrs the maids' room can be in Delft blue and while, and the other room in pink and white, f'se white enamel furniture in jboth these rooms. Wax all your hardwood floor*. Beware of a shellac finish, as It 1> almost tar* to crack off. The col* or of tbe wood may be changed by ap plying auy one of tbe many different dye? before the wax. FOR THE BABY. " Many n mother Is puzrJed to kno\^ bow to feed her young child. Shq knows bow to feed n baby, she can manage a child of ten or twelve. bu| the little one at four Is at a pursllug age. With a view to solving this problem, the students at Teachers* .Col lege have made out several model di etaries for a child of this age, lu ac cordance with Prof. At water's stand ard. These dietaries formed a part of the exceedingly interesting cxlilbltiou just held l?y the domestic science de partment in the Kducatlonal Museum. Professor At water's standard of nu trition for a child of four rails for twelve per cent, proteids, nine per cent. fat. .oS pound of carbohydrates and 1420 calories. The average, un scientific tno' .or is not supi?oscd to know much about fats and protchls, of course. The tiling to do is either to accept the ready made menus of au thorities on dietaries, or model some of one's own very closely upon them. Here is one of the Teachers* College Sfi-ies of a day's menus: For Breakfast? The juice of half an orange, four tahlespoonfuls of farina, half a cup of milk. two tablespooufuls of sugar, one slice of bread, half a teaspoonful of butter, one cup of milk. For lo O'clock Luncheon? One cup of milk, two tahlespoonfuls of stewed raisins, one slice of bread, half a tea spoonful of butter. For Dinner? One ounce of lamb chops, two tahlespoonfuls of green peas, three tahlespoonfuls of boiled rice, half a slice of bread, half a tea spoonful of butter and half a cup of junket. For Supper? One cup of milk, one one slice of bread, half a tea spoon ful of butler. The peas and rice are to he served with butter. The slice of bread is cut half an Inch thick, from a square loaf, .and canals an ounce. Tbe materials are weighed before cooking. Highly interesting also is the hy gienic outlit for au infant, with its pasTeuri^ing plant, its schedules of quantities. and its little hospital bot tles containing each the exact amount prescribed by the medical profession for stated periods in the infant's life ?so many feedings a *ay for the Crst four days, up to four weeks old. six weeks, eight we ?ks and four months. In this connection of especial inter est is the table giving the cost of feed ing a baby in New York City during the lirsl year of its life. If you buy modified milk, it will cost you just $180: if guarantecHl milk, then tbe cost drops to W2.75. But if certified uiilk Is used, then one may keep a baby for only $41.80 for the whole year. All this milk Is of superior quality, and comes from dairies with big names. The table ignores tbe seven-eents-a quart bah;*, a". 1 the three-cents-n-quart skim milk eorner grocery baby is not iii it.? New York Tribune. FASHION NOTES. Burnt or an go is the very latest iiut in leather. Walking skirts of cream rep share fnvor with the linens. Tan bogs with braided handles of a darker shade arc just out. Colored leathers are to be more used than for many seasons past. It iR said that the new jacket will certainly be long and close fitting. Many military Ideas are prominent in the .tew r.?.:tnmu leather exhibits. Already sleeves are beginning to spring direct from the shoulder line. Browns and tans, combined with creams and greens, will be much worn. There seems to be a decided tenden cy toward the evolution of handbag* without frame*. A mottled seal in every conceivable shade to match a variety of costumes is a novelty. Fancy a hat of cigar brown tulle with crown of nasturtiums and saucy tulle strings. The wouhl-be modish sii'l will need to make hor ftill oat sleeves tight for fashionable wear. A collar much liked Is the button holed embroidery band edged with a. frill, a colored ribbon running around through the band to tie in a bow in front. Carriage, flat-iron, envelope, vanity, Peggy, Boston, auto, avenue, military, protnennde double frame Netsukc and chatelaine bags are with us, which will give milady a large choice to pick from, v Fifth tin* "Ko l>cahnl>lll?."
