Breakfast Jackets. Every one is aware of the blessiugs of a dainty little coatee to slip on in the morning, and the cool, fresh touch it gives to one's toilet at that all important meal?breakfast. They are exceedingly simple for the home dressmaker to contrive, also to laundry, for jnuslin is the most appropriate material to choose; spotted Swiss muslin is very suitable and not expensive, so allowing for the investment of two or three. I The Pony Coat. A new and odd notion in the later.t ! pony coat is the appearance- of a row of large buttons, on one side only, about two inches to the left of the front closing, the real fastening being effected by invisible hooks. This gives a strange one-sided effect, but it is fashion's decree. A Mascot Ring. A new mascot ring has just been i:i troduced. It is a bar of gold in which is set the tooth of a wolf or that ot i badger, which, when highly polished, looks like a piece of ivory or white , coral. . t Imported Coats. t Vagueness of outline is perhaps the j most impressive feature of imported e COi'.tS.

W. H. M'MASTER. Theme: Spiritual Awakening. Brooklyn, N. Y.?The Rev. W. H. JcMaster, pastor of the Embury Menorial M. E. Church, Lewis ?venue ind Decatur street, preached Sunday norning on "The Spiritual Awakenng of Man." The text was from -.uke 9:32: "When they were fully iwake they saw His glory." Mr. Monaster said: The common yet strange phenom>na of sleep and waking provide us with a significant simile. The state vhen the body is dormant, the senses ire stopped and reason is absent, belomes the symbol of inaction, obivion, unconsciousness, death. The itate of waking comes to represent in >ur language, action, awareness, reiponsiveness, life. Sin is said to put he soul to sleep in moral night. Christ is represented as the awakener )f those asleep, the lifter of those lead into newness of life. A sin is epresented by sleep and death, life is epresented by light and glory. The >asal suggestion in the word "glory" s that of dazzling brightness, of efful;ence, and it will gather a deepening :ontent as the wealth and wonder of he spiritual life are unveiled. Religion has as its subject matter lot the morbid, erratic and abnormal hings of dreams and nightmares, but he normal visions of the awakened ioul. When the soul is most normal tnd when it has most nearly attained he ideal state, then its sight is clearest ind its vision greatest. When Peter, fa^nes and John, on the Mount of Transfiguration, were heavy with ileep, they saw notbirng and heard lothing, but when they were fully iwake they saw Christ's glory and the wo men who stood with Him. The ion-religious mind is asleep and dead o the all-enveloping realities of the inseen spiritual world. Having ears, hey hear not the upper harmonies, laving eyes they see not the trancendent glories. The awakened nind, on the other hand, has come to piritual consciousness. He responds o spiritual stimuli; he feels the lure ?f moral beauty, his faculties have ound a sphere of blessed action and lis whole personality is awakened to , spiritual sensitiveness which catches avishing glimpses of the divine ;lory. The world of spiritual reality is all tround us. It inspheres us as an atnosphere. It is underneath and imninent in all material forms. "In Jod we live and move and hare our leing." Our real selves are unseen md spiritual, the body being the tarthen vessel of the unseen gift of ife. Our words are visible or audible igns of spiritual ideas. Our drawngs of lines and angles and circles tut visible representations of purely deal relations, our books and litraries but means of concreting and (reserving that spiritual thing we all literature. We are asleep and lead to all we are ignorant of. If ve are aware of the treasures of litirature we are awake and alive to hem. If we are conscious of the uneen and spiritual things we are iwake and alive to them. Because ve do not see these spiritual glories loes not argue their non-existence, iut only our dead condition. Those vho see them are the prophets, the eers, the men of spiritual authority ind leadership. Christ was just as livine and just as glorious down in he valley healing the demoniac child ind restoring him into his father's irms as He was on Mount Hermon vhen the disciples saw His garments .s white as snow. The only differince' was that on the mountain "they vere fully awake and saw His glory." The waking of the soul Is a process. ?he true object of education Is to iwaken and arouse and develop the towers of the personality. The ;rowth of the bodily powers is largely onditioned by well-directed activity, lence calisthenics and gymnastics, ''he development of the mental faculies is conditioned by stimulating hought activity, hence systems of intruction, and teachers and courses of tudy. The awakening of the moral lature is conditioned by doing the pill of God, hence prayer and hurches and rituals and preaching ind religion. The object of religious nstruction is to awaken the sleeping onscience, the dormant feelings, the nactive will and enlist them actively n the spiritual love and labor of Christ. The history of religion when written from the standpoint of projressive development will be the tory of the awakening of the soul o spiritual things. Professor Bourne ays: "When there is little mental >r moral development the religious nstinct can cling to a stick, or a stone ir some low and hideous animal. Jut as life unfolds and intellect is larified and conscience becomes reglant in our religious thinking, it then nnears that there are certain condi ions that must be met by any religion hat Is to command the assent of deeloped humanity." All races have worship and religion. The awekenng of the mind, as evidenced in the irogress of education, has made worvorship and religion. The awakenng of the sense of the beautiful, as ividenced by the progress of art and isthetics. has made worship more jeautiful. The awakening of the noral nature, as evidenced by ethical tstems and ethical emphasis, has nade worship more ethical. When nen are fully awake they will see the ;lory of Christ, for Hp is the truth for he mind, ld^ve for the heart and tower and guide for the will. No true evelopment of the human personality vill exceed the glory of Christ, nor ;o so high that He shall not remain ts ideal and its good. We can think if nothing in the moral and spiritual cnle beyond or better than Jesus Christ. Christ is not only the ideal of this piritual awakening, but He is the ;reat cause of it. He is the inspiroion of the modern scientific research or truth. His challenge was "Come md see." He exalted the child mind >f inquiry, of openness to the truth, is the type and by taking that attiude toward nature man has come nto possession of her truth. By ibeying nature man has come to conrol her. By getting down humbly o learn from her. she has exalted nan by her treasures and her secrets, "lie mind of Christ, which obeys, vhich is open to the truth, which hallenges investigation, which Bubnits the nailprints to the most doubtul scrutiny, is the instrument of irogress in knowledge. So also in he moral realm. Christ is the great tower to quicken the conscience, proluce repentance and win the moral lature to the highest standards. He ;tvo ?w?-?pv.vi CII*? HJUi <11 uaiuic he place where no man can hope to e religions beyond the extent that ie is moral, and no corporation repreents Christian things beyond the exent that it incorporates the ethics f Christian love in all its business. Jhrist is leader in the great intelectual and moral awakenings of our i % times. He has leil us to this mount of awakening and we, like the favored apostles, when we are fully awake will see the glory of Jesus Christ. Christ is the most powerful force in human life for the awakening of the intellect in search for truth, or the quickening of the conscience to repentance and faith, and for swinging the soul with all its awakened and aroused powers into service for men, even to the point of free and glad selfn rt stfl rto OQCI iuv>ti As men follow Christ, He has rehabilitated their faith in the spiritual, and broken the illusive spell cast over them by the material, the false and superstitious views of God lose their hold on their minds and fade away before the sun-like doctrine of the. divine Fatherhood. The selfishness of men's hearts is softened into brotherly good will and the old religions cast aside their crudities and sink themselves in the more effulgent light of Christianity, the basis for the final and ultimate faith of mankind. Who shall say what greater glories await to surprise the more fully awakened powers of man's soul! When we are fu.'y awake we shall behold His glory. : Discoverers of Opportunity. It Is a peculiarity of human naturer that we do not readily respond to opportunities for doing good unless we discover them in ourselves. There is something in the Eelf-discovery of opportunity that carries with it both inspiration and the sense of responsibility. Tell one that the chance confronts him of doing this or that, show him the human need, and show him also the way to supply it, and he will thank you?but how seldom he will follow your well-meant but more or less officious adviee! On the other hand, let one discover for himself the thing that ought to be I done, and most likely he will go and do it. The very discovery of human need is an incentive to human helpfulness. One is ripe for the joy and inspiration of service that begins with his own initiative. Is not this one of God's wise provisions for keeping us alive to the constant presence of opportunities? He gives us great joy in the personal discovery of them, and the personal response to them, whereas an opportunity discovered and pointed out by another is a kind of lifeless and remote thing, that we respond to, if we respond at all, perfunctorily and without enthusiasm. At such times we feel as if we had been cheated out of the best part of the joy of doing good?the doing it upon our own initiative, with the glad heart that is alert to opportunity's call. Wisely has it been said that "the value of an opportunity largely consists in having seen it for one's self."?The Watchman. What God Gives Nights IVr. .It is often the obvious truths toward which our eyes are holden. Sometimes when they appear before us in a fresh and unusually attractive garb they strike home to our consciousness as if never before uttered, though they may be the same old truths with which the teachers of our childhood strove to make us familiar, and though we may be weary of them. For example, will the thought embodied in the following paragraph from Christian Work ever be so fully absorbed by any of us as not to need reiteration? "Any one can carry his burden, however heavy, till nightfall. Any one can do his work, however hard, for one day. Any one can live sweetly, patiently, lovingly and purely till the sun goes down. And this is all that life ever really means to us, just one little day. Do to-day's duty, fight to-day's temptations, and' do not weaken and distract yourself by looking forward to things you cannot see and could not understand if you saw them. God gives nights to shut down the curtain of darkness on our little days. We cannot see beyond. Short horizons give ufe one of the blessed secrets of brave, true, holy living." "As thy day so shall thy strength be," runs the promise. One Sure Thing:. One thing is sure, my friends: If God is going to forgive us our sins, we have got to repent of our sins and turn from them. "Let the wicked forsake his ways." Not only must we forsake our sins, but we must bring forth fruits meet for repentance. I don't know who the young man was who went to his employer the other morning and said: "There's the money I took from you some years ago," but that was bringing forth fruits meet for repentance. We have not only got t<5 forsake our sins, but if we have injured any one, if we have | slandered him and caused him to suffer, we must make restitution as far as we can. And when we bring forth such fruits, men will have confidence in our Christianity. I have heard of a man who had four of his neighbor's sheep stray in among his own, and he took the marks off them and Sept them. When he was converted, these four sheep troubled him.

Why It Pays to Conquer Sin. It is better to conquer temptation than to be freed from it. Therefore ; God does not, at once, take us out of ! the world and beyond the reach of | temptation: He does better than that 1 when He keeps us here and offers j us His omnipotence for the defeat of our enemy. A victorious, sin-beset j man has more to be grateful for than I an undisturbed ang*;l. For every victory over sin brings two notable re| suits. It increases our own power acainst temptation, and it lessens t.^e effectiveness of that temptation in its next onset. So God actually helps us to get freed from temptation every time we use His strength to defeat temptation. It may not always appear?so, for temptation dies hard; but it is so, and we can prove it if we will fight on in undiscouraged assurance that it is a one-sided conflict, after all. and God and we are on that side.?Sunday-School Times.

' > ME CRUSADE AGAINST DRWK PROGRESS MADE BY CHAMPIOX3 FIGHTING THE RUM DEMON, rhe Deciding Vote?How a Mother's Prayers and Confidence Had Their Decisive Influence in tho Making of a Law. There lives in a Western State a ! lumble old lady whose interest in politics Ik confined to the single fact ' :hat her son was elected a number >f years ago a member of the legisature, and has several times since )een re-elected. What he has actuilly done in the legislature she does aot know. She has no doubt that lie has done all that a good boy, frown to be a great man, ought to iiaye done or could do; and one good ihing, at least, Tie did to justify her ionfldence. When the legislature assembled in :he autumn of 1906, the son visited his mother, and chided her goodaaturedly for not reading the speech58 he had sent her. She had saved :hem all, and knew' just where they vere; but she confessed that she had lot been able to read them all, nor to understand vory well what she lad read. "But you're going to make a ipeech this year that I shall read, jvery word," she said. "Tell me which one that is, and i'll be sure to make It," said he. "It's the one on the anti-saloon bill," said she. "Oh, that one!" he said, somewhat :onfusedly. "Yes. I know it will be a good )ne. My boy, you know what liquor .lid for our home years ago. I have prayed all the years that my son night grow up to save other boys from his father's fate. And this is rour opportunity. I know you will De true to it." "Well, mother," replied the son, "I don't know that I have much con Qdence in these efforts to make men I good by legislation. You can't very ] tvell dc more than regulate the liquor i traffic." The" attempt to prohibit it iltogether always fails. I don't know :hat I can make a speech in favor of that bill." But these arguments fell unheed- u 3d on her ears. She did not take them Beriously. She thought her son joking, as was his wont. "Oh, I know you like to tease me," she said, "but I know you'll vote for that bill ,and speak for it. And I shall read every word of your speech, and I shall pray for you every day, that God will bless that speech and make it win the fight.''* The son had. indeed, expected to speak on the bill, but on the other side; and he never had doubted, nor had his political friends, which way he would vote. But the weeks went by, and the fate of the bill hung in the balance, and he kept his own counsel. It was assumed, however, that he would vote against the bill In the end, and so his silence caused no uneasiness to the liquor men. "I know why you are waiting," wrote his mother. "You are waiting to make your great speech when the j great fight comes. God bless you. my boy! I am praying for you. How proud I am of you!" It was that letter that put all doubt aside. When the lines began to tighten and a deadlock was threat, ening, he first voted on an amendment which forecasted his final action. That vote brought surprise to the friends of the liquor cause. And when the bill came up on its third reading, he spoke. He did not see the members of the House, but he saw an old woman, reading his speech through spectacles that required frequent wiping, and it was a sneech that carried conviction. The vote was so close that any one of a dozen things might have turned the scale: but among the stories told In the committee-rooms, after the bill became a law under which several hundred saloons were obliged td close, is that here related. It is the true story of the way a mother's pray, ers and confidence had their decisive influence in the making or a iaw.? Youth's Companion. Eat Candy.

Conversely, nearly everj drinking man will tell you that he ha? lost his taste for sweets. The more candy a nation consumes, the less alcohol." The United States Government buys candy by the ton and ships it to the Philippines to be sold at cost to the soldiers in the canteens.

According to a recent traveler, even the children and the beggars with coina and pieces of pottery are absent. "We asked the herdsman," he says, "for remnants of arms or pieces of money; he had seen such things picked up, but knew nothing of their value." Probably he knew less of the "decisive" battle, the scene of which was a year or two ago definitely located by a group of Prussian officers. One remembers with an uneasy feeling that there were only 192 heroes disposed of at this great battle; but the Athenians had the literary gift, and knew how to take care of the reDUtation of their race. It is curious to reflect that twenty years have barely elapsed since Greece took the trouble to explore Soros?the mound beneath which lie the bones of the slain?and thus place beyond the reach of doubt the fact that the victors of Marathon found sepulture on the plain where they vanquished the Persian hordes. ?London Chronicle.

On the whole, it seems from all the data we can gather from science .that Mars is no better adapted to life than the region around the north pole of our earth or the tops of the- highest mountains.
