Robert H. Harper God’s Plan for the Home. Lesson for November 1: Deuteron omy 6: 4-9; Ephesians 5: 21—6: 4. Golden Text: Psalms 68: 6. The impressive passage from Deuteronomy shows that more than three thousand years ago the chil dren of Israel were taught to love God and to teach his command ments to their sons and daughters. The words of the Lord were to be in the hearts of parents and were to be constantly brought to the attention of children. God’s plan for the home there fore includes proper care that all the relationships of the home shall be right. The husband and father is rightly to be regarded as the head of the home, but he is to be worthy of the place. The place he has is not to be that of a selfish tyrant. He is to be loving and kind toward his wife, and wise and af fectionate and considerate toward his children. Children are admonished to obey their parents, for that is right in the eyes of God. But the injunc tions to parents, already noticed,, indicate that parents should be worthy of obedience and should exemplify in their own living the high things they require of their children. The Old Testament and the New unite in giving us a comprehen sive plan of the Heavenly Father for the earthly home, and the mem bers of every family should care fully consider their several places and the responsibilities involved.

The new Fall-Winter Fashion From Benjamin P. Forbes, Cleve land, Ohio: I remember back in the horse-and-buggy days when Bamum’s show caravan passed out home near Norwalk, Ohio. One night we children went to bed full of excitement over the news that the following day the big show would probably pass our house on its way to the next stand. Early the next morning, about 4 o’ clock, we dashed out to ex amine the dust in the road and see if by chance the show had slipped through while we slept. We figured we could tell if an elephant had passed by his foot prints in the dust. A little later in the day the parade came by and there was the much advertised elephant, “Jumbo,” the biggest in captivity, which Barnum had bought, accord ing to the Encyclopedia Ameri cana, for $10,000 in England. The animal weighed six tons and was exhibited in America for about three years. Then while on tour in Canada in 1885, Jumbo is sup posed to have seen a baby elephant in danger of being hit by a train. Rushing forward he is reported to have thrown the little elephant from the track, but in so doing was struck by the train and killed. Incidentally, Jumbo's skeleton is preserved at the Smithsonian In stitute in Washington, D. C. O LD Pop Wilkins lifted his huge hulk from the chair beside the big pot-bellied stove to wait on the stranger. If it had been someone from the village, he would have stayed put, and told him to help himself. A well dressed, slick-look ing stranger, however, command ed better manners. “Good morning. Sir." Pop said, with his big open smile. “What can I do for you?” The stranger answered Pop’s cheeriness with a smile in his voice. “Good morning. Let me have some cigars, please.” Pop walked behind the cigar case while the stranger looked over the assortment of open boxes be hind the glass. “What’ll it be?” Pop asked, open ing the back of the case. “Those fifteen cent Panatellas, 1 guess.” , Pop brought out the box and set it on the counter. While the strang er picked out four cigars Pop nar rowed his sharp grey eyes and sized him up from head to foot. An old habit from his days as sheriff in these parts. He never liked to open up with a stranger till he felt his hunch ‘click’. The man handed Pop a dollar bill, accepted his change, and said, “Nice weather we’re having.” **Yes. It is,” Pop answered la conically. “Had much rain this year?" He was feeling through his pockets when Pop handed him a packet of matches. The man said. “Thank you,” and lighted one of the matches. Pop’s great weight made his feet sore, and he wanted to go back to his chair beside the stove. The stranger hadn’t ’clicked’ so far. and Pop wasn’t encouraging conversa tion. However, the man, between puffs, asked about the crops, the market prices, and how was busi ness in generaL He leaned an elbow on the case watching the smoke drift from his cigar. A lean, dark man with half-hidden eyes, he seemed to look at you and right on hrough. His nostrils dilated slow ly as he sniffed the tangy aroma of the smoke. “It’s been a good growing sea son,” Pop answered indifferently, “and the farmers have a little money, now.” “Speaking of paoney,” the stran ger said, looking quizzically at Pop, “did you ever catch the burglar that held you up three years ago, and cleaned out your cash reg ister?” A slow flush spread over Pop’s round face. Then a little-boy grin wrinkled his eyes, as he raised a hand to scratch the fringe of hair that hung like a gray curtain around his bald dome. “No, we never caught him. Funny thing about that . . . Just a minute, and I’ll tell you what happened.” Pop stepped a little to his right and slipped his hand under the counter. His actions were hidden by the cigar case. His hand came out holding - gun, and in a split second he was aiming it straight at the stranger’s heart. There was sudden fear In the man’s face. He gulped, then blurt ed, “What’s the idea, old man?” Pop’s gray eyes glinted danger ously. “Just stay the way you are, stranger, and this gun won’t go off. You see, I was so ashamed of bein’ robbed I never told nobody. Me, a former sheriff. I couldn’t starfd the laughs. So. that robber and me wer5 the only two that ever knew it We have a sayin’ in these hills that a wolf always comes back to his kill Stranger, you came back!” Ticklers By George j • “Oh, oh!

H. Hilbert, Corn ing, Kansas: Rocently we pur chased flour in a paper sack. The first paper flour sack I ha 1 seen since I left Pennsylvania years ago. It recalled to my mind the flour mills operated by water pow er and the millers coming to the stores with their products in white covered wagons. ' I also remember when the cook stove had a “stove plate” with a deep place underneath where the ashes from the fire were stored. The plate would be removed and the ashes lifted out with a shovel. I recall my mother would chide us and say “if we didn’t soon lift the ashes we would have to hang up the stove plate.” • • * From Mrs. D. H. Hallenan, Belle ville, N. J.: I remember my moth er making soft soap for the year. She filled a barrel half full with hemlock branches. On top of that she put sand and ashes. The bar rel was put on a bench with a hole at the bottom. She poured water in to the barreL It seeped through and came out of the hole at the bottom. This was lye. When she had enough lye collected, set up an iron kettle on a crossbar. The lye was up in the kettle with fat collected from the kitchen and some water. This was cooked until the mixture thickened. This soft soap was stored in the ceUar in a big barreL It was used to wash dishes, clothes and scrub floors. I have washed many dishes with this kind of soap.
