To get the very best out of life as onemust live it: to make the most of whatone lias while continually striving forsomething higher and better; to be alwayscontented, but never satisfied; to acquirethat culture of spirit which teaches howto enjoy to the full the blessings thatcome, but also gives one the strengthto renounce without bitterness when thegreat ordeals of life take from the store;to always yearn for the most, the verybest and highest of which one is capable,but at the same time to neglect no op-portunity for improving present surround-ings, and moulding, according to one'sIdeals, the life of the striving days—surelythis is a conception of life's possibilitiesami opportunities which yields to nonein nobility, in dignity and in fruitfulness.—Louis E.

DON'T LET THE SONG GO OUT OFYOUR LIFE.

Don't let the song go out of your life;Though it chance sometimes to flow

In a minor strain, it will blend againWith the major tone, you know.

What though shadows rise to obscurelife's skies.

And hide for time the sun;They sooner will lift, and reveal the rift,If you let the melody run.

Don't let the song go out of your life;Though your voice may have lost its

trill.Though the tremulous note should die in

your throatLet it sing in your spirit still.

There is never a pain that hides not somegain.

And never a cup of rue.So bitter to sup, but that in.the cup

Lurks a measure of sweetness, too.

Don't let the song go out of your life;Ah! it never would need to go.

If, with thought more true and a broaderview,

We looked at this life below.Oh! Why should we moan that life's

springtime has flown.Or sigh for the fair summer time?

The autumn has days tilled with paeansof praise.

And the winter hath bells that chime.Don't let the song go out of your life;

Let it ring in the soul while here.And when you go hence it will followyou thence,

And sing on in another sphere.Then do not despond and say that the

Zbumdtr §fyirm§SOME INTERESTING DATA.

According to our best authoritiesthe average number of thunderstormdays in the middle West annually isthirty. This doesn't seem to be a greatnumber, nor is it, compared withwarmer climates.

The average number is forty-five inour Southeastern states, fifteen morethan with us, you see A thunderstormis generally a source of apprehensionin the minds of many. Iknow one manwho would crawl under the bed duringthe thunder. He was not cowardly infront of a man, for I saw him tried.We knew a family that at night,when thunder roared and lightningflashed, always got up and lighted thelamp. They forgot that mere noiaeisn't dangerous. The flash, if seen,never hurts; it is past.

Danger fromLightning

Besides, It isn't tall objects whichare always struck. A writer says: "Iwas once sitting on a porch in frontof a two-story house when a boltstruck a small pear tree not twentyfeet from my chair. It jolted the folkson the porch, but that was all."

The rural population suffer less thanany other class. In 1890, my last fig-ures, lowa lost ten people by liehtninein a million, Illinois six. Missouri sev"nArkansas seven, Minnesota nine Wis-consin seven and Michigan eight.

This is certainly not a very largepercentage for the farm. It is the sameor practically so, in similar latitudeselsewhere in the world. It is hardlyworth while to crawl under the bedin a thunderstorm. The data, howev-er, are interesting.

THE FAMILV FORUMBmsdap Study

THE COMMANDMENTS.The international Sunday school les-

son for July 20 is found in Exodus xx.,12-17. The golden text is Matthewxix., 19. The Ten Commandments, orten words, as they are sometimes call-ed, are summed up by our Lord inMark vii., 29-31, in these words: "Hear,O Israel; the Lord our God is one Lord,and thou shalt love the Lord thy Godwith all thy heart, and with all theysoul, and with all thy mind, and withall thy strength. This is the first com-mandment, and the second is like—namely, this, Thou shalt love thyneighbor as thyself. There is noneother commandment greater thanthese." The first verse of the lesson "isan important one: "Honor thy fatherand thy mother that thy days may belong upon the land which the Lord thyGod giveth thee."

The second verse of the lesson is"Thou shalt not kill." It is not all inin the killing of the body, for it iswritten in John ill.. 15, that "Whoso-ever hateth his brother is a murderer."Not duly are we forbidden to hate anyone, but we are forbidden to speak evilof any one. We are forbidden even toimagine evil in our hearts against abrother or a neighbor.

"Thou shalt not commit adultery" isthe command in the third verse of thelesson. This sin can be committed in alook as well as by the act. God count-ed Israel guilty of this sin when theyworship idols, the works of men'shands, and by the spirit throughJames He tells us that if we are inidolatrous friendship with the worldwe are in His sight guilty of this sin.

The next verse says, "Thou shaltnot steal." Many who would scornto take what does not belong to them,as between man and man, might haveto plead guilty when searched by thequestion, "Will a man rob God?" YetGod had to say to Israel, 'STe haverobbed Me in tithes and offerings."

"Thou shalt not bear false witnessagainst thy neighbor." There aretongues that devise mischiefs, thatseem to love evil more than good andlying rather than righteousness, butsuch do not belong in the holy city."He that worketh deceit shall notdwell within My house; he that tell-eth lies shall not tarry in My sight."Fatse witnesses were among thegrievous things which our Lord suf-fered for our sakes, even as it is writ-ten, "False witnesses are risen upagainst Me and such as breaths outcruelty," and again, "False witnessesdid rise up; they laid to My chargethings that I knew not."

"Thou shalt not covet." One cannotkeep the other commandment and yetdesire what belongs to another. Oneoffense is sufficient to blot the whole.

MEANS OF GROWTH.The Christian Endeavor topic for

July 20 is found in Phil, ill., 12-16;Col. i., 10-14. To grow in Christiangrace, love and charity is a necessity.

It is necessary because we can nev-er in this life come to a state of moraland spiritual perfection. At least thiswas Paul's opinion. After nearlythirty years of most devout and zeal-ous service and c6nsecration he de-clared that he still pressed forward,"not as though I had already stftain-ed, either were already perfect? butI follow after, if that I may apprehendthat for which I am apprehended ofChrist Jesus. Brethren, I count notmyself to have apprehended." Lan-guage could not be plainer. Paul atleast knew nothing of perfection here,and hence he must needs alwayspress on toward the goal. The samenecessity for the same reason restsupon all Christians.

Paul was actuated in his desire forChristian growth and progress by aprofound reason. Christ had appre-hended or laid hold of him for salva-tion, and, if he failed in apprehendingthat for which he was apprehendedin Christ, then Christ's work for himwoul£ be made vain and ineffective.Therefore he was zealously anxious tofollow out and to lay hold on the eter-nal life which Christ had apprehendedfor him by His death. This profoundmotive should influence us all in desir-ing to persevere unto salvation. Christdied that we might be saved, and lestHis death be in vain we should ac-cept Him as our Savior and perseverein Christian faith and life until theend.

Paul's method of progress or ofgrowth is also set forth in the topicalreference. It consisted of singleness ofaim. "This one thing I do. * * •I press toward the mark of the prizeof the high calling of God in JesusChrist." Christianity must have thesupreme place in our lives if we areto grow as we should. Christian pro-gress can only be made by puttingChrist first and making all things re-volve about Him as the planets re-volve about the sun. And that wemay press forward with singleness ofaim, Paul suggests that we must for-get the things that are behind. Paul'spast would have interfered with pres-ent progress. But God had blotted outthe past, and why should he dwellupon it to the detriment of his ad-vancement in Christian faith andelse that interferes with out constantgrowth must be forgotten or brushedaside. One thing, singleness of aim,is our only sure method of success.Shall we falter or refuse to press onto a victory? The contestant in theGrecian games thought it an honor towin an immortal crown. How muchgreater is the winning of the peaceand glory of the better life beyond.

PROGRAMME OF CHRISTIANITY.The Epworth league topic for July

20 is found in Matthew iv., 23; Mat-thew x., 7-8. The programme ofChristianity is to preach, teach, heal.A pure soul in a sound body is theneed of every one. Jesus had much todo with healing when He was on earthand had entered upon His three yearsof ministry. We have no account ofany cures performed by Him previousto His baptism. After that event Hiswhole course seems a continuous se-ries of healing the sick.

When He sends His disciples outto prepare the way for Him in thetowns and villages He tells them toproclaim the nearness of the kingdomof heaven and, in token of it, to healthe sick.

The work of the Christian churchis not done when men have beenbrought to repent and forsake theirsins and to serve God. The workhas, in fact, just begun. Now theremust be training in all manner of workof mercy and beneficence. How tolive rightly must be discovered andpracticed and taught. Social condi-tions must be understood, their evilsrecognized, remedies found and ap-plied.

In all ages the duty of giving almshas been recognized as binding uponChristians as truly as the duty to wor-

Many thingsonce held as of vital importance arenow forgotten or viewed with indiffer-ence.

The soft hat was introduced to Ameri-ca about 1850 by Louis Kossuth. It be-came the fashionable head-covering, andhas remained so ever since in the South-ern and Western states. The army cam-paign hat and the rough rider hat hadtheir origin in a Tyrolean hat that wasbrought here by some American traveler.

HIS NAME.Inquiry is made as to what would King

Edward's name be if he had the honorof being a citizen of the United States.His mother's name was Guelph and shemarried a man whose family name wasWettin. Therefore should his most grac-ious majesty desire to become a citizenof this country his papers would be madeout to Albert E. Wettin.

Sir Henry Thompson, one of thegreatest livingauthorities on foods andfeelings, states in a recent publicationthat "what is called indigestion doesnot depend upon any fault of the di-gestive apparatus, but solely upon itsbeing called upon to accomplish workwhich is beyond its powers; so that theremedy is not to be found in the gas-tric juices of the pig, or in the Inges-tion of the various chemically preparedmesses advertised as being digestible."

He (Sir Henry) would leave the pep-sin and the messes to be applied, if atall, by skilled physicians in cases ofillness which may possibly requirethem, and lays down, as of practicallyuniversal application, the principlethat the elderly person neither requiresnor can uigest as much food as theyoung person, and that this principleshould govern the arrangements of lifeThe total amount of food should be

Summer J^e§t . .. .PLENTY OP THEM.

The weather thus far this seasonhas not been of a kind to suggest sum-imer resort reflections, but there wUJbe a warm coming with the changeof the moon, or thereabouts, and thenthere will be a rush for the placeswhere the cool breezes blow. But why-should anybody wait for torrid weath-er to escape from the dull routine ofeveryday life? Heat Is not the onlyevil in this world. Dust, noise, andruts into which most of us are apt tofall are equally demoralizing to healthand nerve, and the quiet retreat bythe lake shore or the woods is theplace for needed rest, repose and re-cuperation, with enough social enjoy-ment to break the monotony.

*JROW.TH COMES WITH UNREST.Ifwe wish to grow, to expand indi-

vidually, as a people, as a nation, wemust pay for it the price of comfort,says Rev. Minot J. Savage. We can-not rest and grow. Growth comeswith unrest; it is a product of unrest;it is impossible without unrest. It isonly by unrest, by agitation, by tur-moil that conditions are improved.

Discontent makes for the betteringof humanity. The discontent that is aspur to ambition enlarges man's pos-sibilities. Discontent t>rlngs with itunrest. The one follows the other,and to the two may be credited muchof the improvement in world condi-tions. It is the unrest born of discon-tent that brings about our labor trou-bles; that produces strikes which w*are prone to class as disastrous, andyet they serve a purpose, and a goodone—they force a growth.

I have a profound respect for boys.Grimy, ragged, tousled boys in the stieetoften attract me strangely. A boy is aman in the cocoon—you do not knewwhat it is going to become—his life .sbig with possibilities. He may make orunmake kings, change boundary lines I c.tween states, write books that will moldcharacter, or invent machines that villrevolutionize the commerce of the world.Every man was a boy. It seems stranerebut it is really so. Wouldn't you liketo turn time backward and see AbrahamLincoln at 12, when he had never worna pair of boots, the lank, lean, yellow,hungry boy, hungry for love, hungry forlearning, tramping off through the woodsfor twenty miles to borrow a book, andspelling it out crouching before the glareof the burning logs?

These resorts have the com-forts of home in the hotel accommo-dations, and yet the resorter can cud-dle close to the heart of nature onwater, in the sands and amid thetrees. The resorts are so near, easi-lyreached and varied that all classesmay find accommodation, and the manof modest means need not be dauntedby the expense. This is the acceptedtime of the year for rest and out-doorrecreation and recuperation for the du-ties of next fall and winter.

Master mechanics of the world, themanagers of the great Industries, thefactories, the railways, the coal min-ers, the steel trust men, the men en-gaged in the great work of the world—it would be greatly for their com-fort if their workmen would alwaysbe patient, always be contented withtheir wages, never desire any largeror higher iife than they have yet at-tained; if they would De willing tostay quiescent where they are and letthe masters enjoy the comfort of theluxurious positions which might aswell be theirs.

But, if the world is to grow. If thelower levels are to ne lifted, theremust be paid the price of this tem-porary disturbance, upheaval, dis-comfort. And the men who are per-fectly comfortable and do not wantanything more are the ones of whomthere is no hope.
