The Curloao Habit* of a Cricket.
i the American Naturalist, J. L.
jcock gives an interesting descripi
of some of the habits of the
ped tneadow cricket. The most
king part of the account deals with
allurements which the male cricket
;ess. When he wishes to attract
female, the male cricket raises his
> wings vertically above his head,
by rubbing them over each other
luces a high-pitched singing, or
laps better, shrilling. When the
ale's attention has been attracted,
goes to the male and proceeds to
i advantage of the refreshments
red. Upon the mate's back, situ[
well forward on the thorax, is a
i depression or well, in which a
11 quantity of semi-fluid material
?creted. Climbing up on the male's
i, the female eats this apparently
:ious moisel with great eagerness;
s evidently something especially
ce which is formed there for her
cial benefit. This proceeding sugs
that treating as a means of wina
lady's love is not confined to
allurements of ice cream and soda

The Staple Karc&in.
The sensible woman uses her reason
j on these occasions. She knows that it
| is folly to buy a gown which is already
a little out of style. Unless a bargain
can be worn at U-ast a part of next
season, it is no bargain at all. One
must do a littie looking forward. Is
I the reign of tlie pleated skirt beginning
to fail? Will the popular broderie
Anglaise be worn next year? Is the

it is eo economy to buy them at this
late day. On the other hand, linen is a
staple material, and unless the gown
is in essentially a style of the moment
it can be altered to tit next year's requirements.
even if it cannot be worn
exactJy as it is.
Kmbroidery Everywhere.
The craze for embroidery '.-as spread
to include the low shoes and white
canvas or duck ties heavily embroidered
on the toes are made for wear
with embroidered white hose, em|
broidered petticoats, embroidered
j frocks, embroidered coats, eiubroid'
ered hats, embroidered parasols. Verily
there are great possibilities of extravagance
in the season's modes, but,
at least, the greatest extravagance toJ-?

taste expresses itsolf in the exquisitely
dainty, not in tLc barbaric.
Gardenia in a Fad.
Gardenias, which last year were seen
exclusively in the" buttonholes of men.
are this season the ilower specially
loved by the fair sex. Three gardenias
is the number chosen for wearing.
Sometimes they are seen snuggled in
the side of the coiffure, when their
waxy whiteness appears mbst charming,
or they are worn in the front of
the corsage or carried in the hand. Ii?
these latter instances their stems
should be left long, and as many ot
their brilliant, glossy leaves allowed to
show as possible.
Now It's Shaded Effects.
Shaded and shot or chameleon effects
are of extraordinary importance
in the fashion world and millinery,
buttons, hose, parasols, ribbons, as well
as frock materials, show the popularity
of these ideas. The new buttons follow
the color prominent in the new
materials; and, though they cannot
well surpass last season's buttons in
elaborateness, the peculiar charm of
the new color schemes and combinations
gives them unusual beauty.
Revival of Umbrella Skirt.
The umbrella skirt and the circular
skirt cut with seams at front and back
are two of the leaders among skirt
patterns. Both of these shapes solve
the problem of close fitting tops and
flaring hems.
The Empire Drees.
The quaint lines of the "Empire
Dress" are singularly becoming to the
slender and youthful figure. They are
best made with a detachable tucker.
Lingerie Blouse With Yoke.
The lingerie blouse is the accepted
one of the fashionable world. Not
alone is it the smartest of all models
for the summer, its usefulness is extended
through ths entire year and
very dainty and charming it is. This
one is quite novel in form, showing a

tl i
Subject: The "Witness of Good "WorltB.
Brooklyn, N. Y.?At the annual Gsild.
service in the Church of the Messiah tl
the rector, the Rev. St. Clair Hester, 0)
preached on "The Witness of Good j(
Works." For the text he chose I Peter j?
li:ll: "Thatwhereas they speak against
| you as evil doers they may by your jj.
| good works which they shall behold 'n
i glorify God." Mr. Hester said: *
The value to Christianity of the evi- y,
dence of good works cannot be gain- ,
said or withstood. It speaks for itself ^
and with a power and effectiveness no ^
words can have. In the presence of .{
such a demonstration of its truth, ar- ^
guuient, advertisement, exalted claims,"
eloquent commendation are beside the .
work, are not needed, i.re of small use n
and minor importance. A great ship
steams in from the sea and we may *_
view her as she lies still and quiet in
Vim- hor+h hnt nnnn hpr flpcks and
sides there are signs of the rough voyage,
upon her- prow and funnels is the 11
| salt thrown there by the high breaking
waves. Men may say of her she is too D'
large, badly proportioned, improperly u
constructed, her machinery is not of ti
the latest pattern; they may crticise P
and accuse ar.d point out defects, but k
there is no denying that she has
plowed the surface of thousands of b
miles of deep water and brought her w
precious cargo of freight and passen- c<
gers safe and undisturbed to their des- ri
tination. o:
This symbolizes in a way the position "R
of the Church of God in the world to- tl
day. And it describes after a fashion, lc
too, the singularity, the unique promi- C
ience of the Christian among the all si
sorts and conditions of men constitut- tl
ing what is known variously as society, cj
the nublic. the body politic. Never tl
mind -what the world may have or find si
to say against you, my Christian ii
rriend, if you do well, this well doing
disarms suspicion, gains the mastery a:
over falsehood, silences misrepresenta- h
tion and supplants enmity with good tl
will. If your works bo good you do b
not need to hare recourse to eulogy, a
notoriety-seeking or noise; the world tc
has need of them; men have an in- n
Etinctive respect and appreciation of n
everything conducivo to the common d
benefit, they will win their way, they d
will secure their place, they, the works, If
Dot you, will exact deserved recogni- w
tion. A tree may be despised and spo- fi
keu evil of, but if the fruit be healthful a
and sweet, pleasing to the taste, a E
change in the estimate of it is sure to fi
come. By their fruits ye shall know S

umny and envy cannot down, and from B
whose righteous judgment there is no ji
armea!. o
St. Peter in this text was writing to tl
Christians and churches existing in n
Gentile or foreign countries and among g
peoples of heathen religions. Their lot n
was anything but pleasant, their safe- n
ty anything but assured. The Chris- n
tians of those early days were common- e
ly accused of being disturbers,.innova- p
tors, mischief-makers, of being law- e
breakers and traitors to Caesar, of be- (]
Ing atheists and blasphemers of the t<
popular idolatry. Because the popular Ci
hatred of them they were compelled to t<
meet secretly, to exclude outsiders tl
from their places of worship, and this a
led to reports that they indulged in ^
wild, obscene orgies. Because of the 0
phrase "drinking of the precious blood" n
used in connection with the communion
service, it was said that they killed
infants and drank their blood in their S(
private assemblies. They were under a
constant suspicion and surveillance, f]
Their enemies were ever on the alert jj
seeking to discover faults and incon- ;<
sistencies, to uncover them in some p
wrongdoing. St. Peter hopes and be- f,
lieves that this close observation of n
the lives of the followers of Christ jc
may lead to the undeceiving of their 0]
enemies as to tneir true cnaracter, ana a
that from this better understanding i
there may come a disposition to inves- jr
tigate, to come closer, and, finally to
embrace their holy religion. He is con- ^
fident that prejudice aside and knowl- j1(
edge in its place can result in cnly this P
?its glad and willing acceptance. S)
What an opportunity then in view of ^
these circumstances and what an in- ^
ducement to live exemplary lives? 0
that others, even their bitter enemies
and severest critics, might be brought jj
to know the only true God and Jesus C]
Christ, whom He did send. The apos- ;r
tie's counsel is to this effect?be true ai
to thy cause and to thy God, be good p
and do good, not merely because it t(
gives you peace of mind and joy of n]
soul, not merely because it is to your y
highest and best interest?this would
be looking on the side of self only?he
eliminates all selfish taint from his
counsel by putting emphasis upon the in
educative effect of Christian conduct k<
upon the sentiments and convictions Jbi
of hostile and heathen neighbors. This st
is your chance, he intimates; this the
means?your good works?impress al
them, win them, help them, in this hway,
by.this means.
All these considerations, this motive, is
these means are of present moment,
of up-to-date interest and may be of
I present application. Though living in ai
a nominally Christian age and land, In
practically the Christian is still sur- fit
rounded by an envious, evil-speaking, m
backbiting world. They who are not
with us are as critical, as watchful, as T
eager to find wherewith to accuse, em- ro
barrass, expose as ever in the days of w
the apostle. Not only our own souls, ui
not only our morals and principles are lii
in our keeping, but the safeguarding si
and growth of the church, the purifica- be
tion and moral uplift of society, the sa
putting down of iniquity and sin and
yes, verily, the Christianization of the
home, the family, the community, the
city, the salvation of the world. Every j*
Christian is as a city set on a hill?not j.1.1
to be hid?and men will be won to kl
Christ in proportion as each and every
Christian feels a responsibility for the tlJ
unchurched masses, for those not in m
the Good Shepherd's fold, and just in m
proportion as each and every one comes Wi
up to the measure of his responsibility.
Translated into modern application,
the apostle's meaning to you and t(?
me is this: "You Christians, so regulate
your desires and take account of s"
your ways that your life will be be- ^'J
coming i.nd worthy of your calling, and "s
thus the heathen, the indifferent, the
estranged and prejudiced people around
you, prejudiced against Christ, will be
prepared to receive the Gospel when th
It is urged upon them." We may try (1o

inn the Christian for himself. It is
ie world's unconscious tribute to holiess.
This standard exacts exemplifiltion
of righteousness, self-mastering,
ind consideration for others, self-d?ial,
self-sacrifice. They watch with
11 eagle eye for any infringement upcii

In order to do our part there must be
ot merely a refraining from what is
nbecoming and contrary to the Chrisan
profession, but there must be a
ositive showing and shining forth in
indness and love of the divine life we
iel within. Not only correct lives, but
eautiful deeds.' In accounting for

anverted the world we must give high
ink to beautiful deeds. The history
f the Christian Church literally teoms
rith them. When the pagans deserted
leir near relations in a plague J.nd
itt the afflicted ones to die like dogs,
bristians came and ministered to the
ick and dying. When the pagans left
leir dead unburied after a battle and
ist their wounded into the streetis,

A Lighthouse Lesson.
A friend told us that he was visitig
a lighthouse lately, and said to the
eeper, "Are you not afraid to live
pre? It is a dreadful place to be con:antly
in."
"No," replied the man, "I am nol
'raid; we never think of ourselves
pre."
"Never think of yourselves! How <
that?" |
The reply was a good one: i
"We know that we .are perfectly safe, 'i
id only think of having our lamps
Jghtly burning, and keeping the re- j
?ctors clear, so that those in dangc?

That is what Christians ought to do.

DREADS DOCTOR'S QUESTIONS
Thousands Write to Mrs.Pinkham, Lynn,
Maaa., and Receive Valuable Advloe
Absolutely Confidential and Free
There can be no more terrible ordeaf
to A delicate, sensitive, refined wom&jf
than to be obliged to answer certai^'
questions m regaru wj utr private -utb
even when those questions are a&ked
by her family physician, and many
continue to suffer rather than submit
to examinations which so many physicians
propose in order to intelligently
treat the disease; and this is the reason
why so many physicians fall to
cure female disease.
This is also the reason why thousands
upon thousands of women are corre- '
sponding with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn,
Mass. To her they can confide every
detail of their illness, and from
her great knowledge, obtained fifem
years of experience in treating female
ills, Mrs. Pinkham can advise women
more wisely than the local physician.
Read how Mrs. Pinkham helped Mrs.
T. C. "VVilladsen, of Manning, la. She
writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham
"I can truly say that you have saved my
life, and I cannot express my gratitude in
words. Before I wrote to you balling you
how I felt, I had doctored for over t*o years
steady, and spent lots of money in medicines
besides, but it all failed to do me any good. I
had female trouble and wonld daily have fainting
spells, backache, bearing-down pains, and
my monthly periods were very irregular and
finally ceased, i wrote 10 you ior your uuvice
and received a letter full of instructions
}ust what to do, and also commenced to take
-ydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
and I have been restored to perfect nealth.
Had it not been for you I would have been in
mv grave to-day."
Mountains of proof establish the fact
that no medicine in the world equals
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com*
pound for restoring women's health.
Biliousness
"I have used your valuable Cas caret* and find
them perfect. Couldn't do without them. I have
used tbem for some time for indigestion and biliousness
and am now completely cured. Recommend
tliem to everyone. Once tried, you will
sever be without them in the family." . ? _
