Proverbs xxxi., 36. Them nro two supcrlloial And somewhat prevalent notions of kindness wljioh overlook the truth of a law of kindness and hinder tho fulfilment of that laWi The first is that kindness is It hlippy accident of temperament. When (lharles Lamb died Henry Crnbh ltobinson wont to visit, Mnrv LnmLi, and she said to him: "Now, t call this very kind of yon, not Kdod bstdred, but very, very kind." H?f distinction is just. Kindness is morn tbnn constitutional good nnturodness. It Implies discipline and culture. Tho second notion nssoointos kindness with Christian ctiquclto and deportment, wuu something nmlnhle and desirable, perhaps, but rather orimmotval than essoatlal. Consequently many religious and devout people nro unkind in wonts and actions without any feeling ot sinfulness on that account. Put nwnv tho notion of kindness which regards It ns merely an external grnoo of character or n useful Inbrlennt wherewith to reducethe frictions of social intercourse and conceive it as an essential element of all goodnoss, dlrlne or human, and ns comprehended under God's law Of hutnnu life. Unklndncss, llko any other transgression of mornl law. Is wlokedness. Nor Is It enough to try and not bo unkind, for unless one tries to be kind ho not only fails of duty, but will be unable to guard himself from actual unkind1AM, Kindness hns Its root In kinship. It Implies relationship and affinity. Men are children of a common Father, and therefore brethren. Therein lies tho significance of all that tho Scriptures toneh concerning the essential, exceeding and everInsting loving kindness ot God. There Is kinship between Illm and men, croated la His image. Therein Is grounded our human kinship and the Inwof brotherly kindness for all men, than which no law of human life has higher authority or snoredcr sanctions. As no one can bo ns good ns bo should and may he, so no one can do good ns ho should and may without striving to fulGil this law of tho cultivation and manifestation of kindness. There Is nothing elso so poworful for good unless It bo love, and love as St. Paul says. Is kind. It dlsnrms prejudice and hatred. It converts distrust into confidence, it overcomes all manner of Bvil with good. It brings out as nothing dsn can the latent and potential good things In people. Men have come to recognize and act upon this principle In their treatment and training of animals. How muni, mnrn !.... .-Ill 1... -1...

Tho safest assumption that can be made In nil such matters is that kindness will meet nil such response. Kindness has insight and enn detect signs Df promise In the unpromising, while under Its genial influences and delleato ministrations these signs bccomo manifest and the things they promiso begin to bo fulfilled. SVhat else gives so great encouragement to :ho many who are struggling with adversity er temptation, correcting and changing nst those dopresaed feelings of loneliness ind neglect wherein tho power of evil flnde ts most favornblo conditions? Wordsworth spenks of That portion of a good man's life? 3Is little, nameless, unreinomberod acts of kindness and of love. How suggostivo that is of what Is possible in this way of kindness, which works with mnglc power to transmuto apparent rifles into priceless treasures?as St. Zita's :up of cold water given to n dusty and weary pilgrim proved to he, as ho drank It, t cup of precious wine. Kind words often, ui Dante says of Ilentrlce's words, "more untied tlinn spoken!" Kind actions, eostng little, hut hestowieg much! How easily hey might ho multiplied to tho immeusuriblu cheer and comfort and enrichment of ifel They make the gloomy smilo, the ingry grow meek, the suffer lug to cease roin groaning; they light up hope, sweeten litter thoughts, console sorrow, strongtlien he faint and turn from sin; and they reach md move these whom 110 other good influinces affect nnd conquer such as have relisted all other powers of graoo. Hitter and nil too frequent are our retrots and repentances, as wo recall, per u\|trt iuu i.ihi iur iuikiii nui rfRrei una relentnnco, the unkind things said or done >y lis, or tho kinil things wo might nnd ihould lmvo said nnd dono, but loft nnsntd ind undone.

Woman a inero adjunct to man, an appendix to tlio masculine volume, an nppenIngo, a sort of afterthought, something brown in to make things oven ?tlint is the leresy entertained ..ml implied by some noii. This is evident to them, because idnm was first created, and then Eve. They don't read tho whole story, or they rould Had tlint tlio porpoiso ami tlio bear ind the hawk were created before Adam, o mm mis argument, drawn from priority if creation, might prove that the sheep mid lio dog were greater tlinn man. No. Vomnn was an independent creation, and van intended, if slut choose, to live alone, o work alone, act alone, think alone, font lover fight Iter halt lea alone. The Bible ays it is not good for a woman to he alone; ind tho simple fact is that many women irho are harnessed for life In the marriage elation would he a thousand-fold better ft' if they were alone. A woman standing outside the marriage elation Is several hundred thousand times letter off than a woman badly married. Inny an attractive woman, of good sound Case in other things, has married a man o reform him. What was the result? Liko rheu a dove, noticing that a vulture was apneious and cruel, set about to reform it. ,nd said: "I have a mild disposition, ami like peace, and was brought up in tho [uiet of a dove-cot, and I will bring tho allure to the same liking by marrying litn," so, one day, after the vulture doinred die would give up his carnivorous latiiis and cease longing for blood of ilock lid herd, at an altar of roek covered with noss and lichen, the twain were married, . l>nld-honded eagle officiating, the vulture uyiug: "With all lav dominion of earth aa efcy.i tuoo emisv*. nioiBtoaift Ioto nnd cherish till death do us part/* But one day the dove In hor fright saw the vulture busy at a cnrcass, and crlod: "8top tua ! DM yea not protniso me that /UU VWUld quityouf edffilvorous nnd lllthy habits if I married you?" "Vet," said the vulture* "but If you don't lilte my way. ?u can leave," and with ono angry stroke thh benkj aud another tierce clutch, the vtlltuM ld/C the dove eyeless and wingless and lifeless. Many a woman who hnS had tho hand of a young inebriate offered, but declined It, or who was asked to chain her life to a man selflah, or of bad temper, and refused the sbaokles, will bless Qod throughout all eternity that sbe escaped that unrtbly pandemon lum. In addressing those women who lmvo to bnttle alone, 1 congratulate you on your happy escape. Itejolco forever that you will not have to navigate the faults of the I other Hex, when you huvo fuullH enough of youf own. Think of thu bereavements you nvoid, of thu rtakn of nnnsslinilatnl ioinpor whloli you will not liaro to run, of the oan'H you Will never hit Yd to carry, nnil of tho opportunity of outsido useful* ness from which married lifo would huvo partially debarred you, and that you tiro free to go and eoine as one who has tho responsibilities of n household can seldom be. God has hot given you u hard lot, ns compared with your stater*. Wlion young women alutll make up their minds at tho start that masculine companionship Is not a necessity in order to happiness, an 1 that there Is a strong probability that they will have to light the battle of llfo alone, tlioy will be getting the tl.-nbor ready for their own fortune, and their saw and ax and plane sharpened for Its construction, elneo "Evory wtao woman hulldeth her house." As uo boy ought to be brought up without learning soma business nt which ho could earn n livelihood, so no girl ought to bo brought up without lunrnlugthe scloneo of self-support. Titodiffluulty Is that many a family goes sailing on thu high tide of success, aud thu husband and father depends on his own hualtli and acumen for tho welfaro of his household, hut one day be gets his fcot wet, und in thrco days pneumonia has closed his life, and thu daughters are turned out on n cold world to earn bread, and tliero is nothing practical that they can do. How is this evil to be cured? Rtnrl clear baolt In tho homestead and teach jour daughters that life Isnu oirnwt thing, und that there Is a possibility, it not a strong probability, that they will have to light tho battle of life alone. Let every father and mother say to their daughters: "Now. what would you do for a livelihood If what I now owu were swept away by financial disaster, or old uge, or death should end my career?" ily advice to all girls aud nil unmarried Wotuen, whether in affluent homes or fit homes where most stringent economies are grinding, is to learu to do some kind of work that tho world must huvo while the world stunds. O, young women of Araorlcn! ns many or you will huvo to fight jour own battles alone, do not wait until you meet with disaster and your father is dead, aud all the resources of your familj' huvo been scattered; but now, while iu u good House und environed bv all prosperities, Jenrn bow to do Homti kind of work that llio world must huvo ns long ?a tlio world stands. Turn your nttoulioii Iroin tho embroidery of lino slippers, of which there Is a surplus, and innko a useful shoe, ISxpend tho time iu which you adorn n cigar vase in learning how to make a good, holiest loaf of bread. Turn ycur attention from tho making of flimsy nothings to tho manufacturing of important something?. "But," you ask, "what would my father anil mother say if they saw I was doing such unfashionable work"?" Throw till! wholo responsibility upon us, tho pastors, who are constantly hearing of young women in all these cities, who, unqualified by their previous luxurious surroundings for the awful strugglo of life into which they have beeu suddenly hurled, seemodtohavo nothing left them bnt a choice between starvation und dninuntion. Tney go along tho street at 7 o'clock in tho wintry mornings, through tho sluKii und storm, to the place where they shall earn only half enough for subsistence, the daughters of once prosperous merchants, lawyers, clergyman, artists, bankers nuJ capitalists, who brought up their children under tho inferuni delusion that it was not high.tone for a woman to learn a profitable vailing. Young woman! tnko this affair in your own hand, and let there bo an insurrection in nil prosperous families on the jwrt of tho daughters of tills day, demanding knowledge in occupation and styles of business by which thoy may be their own defence and their own support if all futhcrly and husbandly And brotherly hands fail them.

To make a pair of bedroom slippers knitted in two colors, two knitting need.es, No. 13, a pair of lambs' wool < soles, a quatter of a pound of Berlin wool in two contrasting colors, and a yard of narrow satin ribbon for bows. About two and a quarter ounces of the dark wool and oue and a half, or a little over, will be sufficient for a No. 4 slipper. The pattern is simple and consists of eight rows. Cust on eighteen stitches with the dark wool, knit one row pluin and join on tho light wool. Then the actual pattern begins: Slip two stitches, knit two with the li <ht wool, slip two dark, knit two with tho light and so on. The next luroo rows are exactly me same except that the light stitches knitted in the liVBt uiul third rows are purled in the second and fourth. The remaining four rows are plain and all with the dark wool, two knitted, the next purled, und the last knitted. This completes the pattern and given a pretty rib, which will be necessary to pin the strip of knitting round the sole to test the length before taking oil' the stitches. The shape of the shoe is formed by one end of the knitted strip being sewed very firmly not to the end, but to the end of the side, so that the first rib knit lies at right uugles to the final ones, to the ends of which it is joined. The last rib thus makes part of the lower edge, 1 to bo sewed to the sole. The extreme corner should be turued under, which gi\es n nice rouud shape to the toe.
