UABOUT bOING
One of the greatest factors to the ad-
vsncerncnt of civilization to -day is the
liberality of the journalistic press. Win-
field is brought into closer touch with
his fellows then ever before through the
generosity of the press, which Ls main-
tained through the gigantic efforts ' 1
the brghteat minds of Ibe age. Ttie pres-
tige of the common Individual is pro -
fueled by the opportunity the press et -
fords him to become informed. '1'Ite
Press is net only an organ of useful in-
fornolum, but it is an opportunity for
pc rsonal expression, the exchange et
which (ends to develop and elevate Iiii-
juovity at large. It It were not possible
for floe individual citizen to voice his
SeriInilen18 in regard le the government,
of which he Ls u pine, that government
would grow despolic; and the individual
who keeps to himself the treasures he
finds through study or analysis of things
presented to his view will become fa-
nahcul and prejudiced. 11 is ncces,ur .

Dig halt a hundred miles into the earth

Strutt, I. R. S., has gathered rocks
from all the world over, granites from
Cornwall and Rhodesia, basalt from
Greenland, the Victoria Falls. and Ire-
ltind, syenite from Norway, leucite from
Mount Vesuvius, and has estimated 1.s
a result of prolonged investigations that
not more than one-thir•tteth of the tolul
volume of the earth Is . composed e•1
rocks, which are to be found on the sur-
face. As a result of his deductions he
eslirrlates that the depth of the earth's
ci tut Ls approximately forty -Ave miles.
This deduction coincides to u certain de-
gree with (he calculations of Prof. Milne,
the earthquake expert, eto has been
investigating to the same end by the
observation of earthquake tremors and
their speed. Prof. Milne coincides that
a, n depth of thirty miles below. the
earth's surface exist rocks whose phy-
sical properties are similar to these
found on the exterior. Mr. Strut com-
putes the international heat of ttv! globe
lo be about 1,50° centigrade at about
forty-five miles below the surface. Such
a heat indicates the melting point of
iton, but it is considerably below the
nulling point of platinum, which Dr.
Harker fixed at 1,710° centigrade.

disciples were not asked to be witnesses

to listen to His marvellous teachings an

Ile then entrusted to His disciples and t

like life. 1t Is far easier to stand up arc
proclaim that Jesus is the light of 1b
rte rid than 0 is to live exemplifying th
saying, "Ye e the light of the world.'
And by the Christ -like life we mean re-
presenting Christ at all times and in all
places, not only In the house of God on
a Sunday, or in the prayer-Ineeting, but
also In the home and in business and
social life.
Another' way by which we may become
faithful vilnesses is by direct and zea-
lous labor to help the many tmfortumate
people about us. I believe the church
fulls in this respect more than any other.
Churches protide well for the comfort of
their ]members. and our preachers aro
able and consecrated men of God, but
individual labor for the individual soul
is lacking. 11 is a wrong ides that per-
sonal labor and oral witnessing for God
ARE FOR MINISTERS ONLY.
One verse in the Bible beautifully de-
scribes the life of Christ, viz.: "He went
about doing good."
This should characterize the life of His
followers. \\'e should "go about doing
good."
"But how," some one may ask, "are
w' to do it?" Let ole mention Ivo or

Moses had deliberately quit the royal

verse, that it had been the intention of
the Egyptian to kill the Hebrew, on
whose behalf Moses had interfered.

TIIE LESSON WORD STUDIES.
Based on the text of the Revised Ver-
sion.
Moses. -Some years before the royal
edict for the destruction of all mule
children among the Iiebrews was issued
a certain nlan, Ainrann by name, of the
tribe of Levi, had married his kins-
woman, Jochehrd 1Exod. 6. '20). To these
people two children, Miriam and Aaron,
hnd been born prior to the issuing of
Pharaoh's cruel command that till male
children of the Hebrews be put to death.
Moses, therefore, was the third child of
the family, his brother Aaron being
about three years his senior, and \lirianl
perhaps twelve or thirteen years. The
name "Moses" . Is now generally con-
sidered to be derived from the Egyptian
ones or inesu, meaning 'son," or child."
This Egyptian sword in turn Is derived
from a root common to holh the Egyp-
tian and Ilebrew languages, ono of the
llebrew words derive,/ from the sync
being Moshe', meaning, literally,
"drawn forth.'' The princess's play talon
words referfeel to In Excel. 2. 10, thus
ahuiftexi of being tactilely rendered in
the (''brew : "And she called his name
Moses [lichees, Mosheh; Egyptian.
Mesu;, and said, Because 1 drew tear
out of the water." Among the important
and nniquo characters of the Old Testa-
ment Moses, the deliverer, lawgiver, re-
former. and wise ruler of Israel. occu-
pies n place of pre-eminence. As the
leader under whore Israel was delivered
from creel slavery in Egypt, and again
from utter destruction by the lied sea,
Moses begins his grunt Hie work, the
total result of which Was the welding to-
gether of loosely connected though
closely related tribes into n compact na-
tion with common ideals, well estnh•
lisped and well regulated "religio-civic"
laws noel customs. As statesman and
lawgiver. as reformer and executive
ruler alike, ho ranks among the very
greatest Hien of all ages. To a concise the Siniilic pr'ninsuln.
and summary account of the early life
of this greatest of Old Testament heroes

Did you over spend a suu1nrer twilhout
a loose separate cont ref souse sort t 1f
you did, you never wish to repent the ex-
per•irnent. It means positive discomfort
-not to mention a probable bad cold.
in our changeable seasons a light wrap
of some sort is absolutely indispensable.
hien when one slays ut home during
the; heated months 1l is useful for riders
1n the trolley, to slip over sheer gowns
on the perch in the evening, and for
driving or automobiling. \\hen one goes
to a summer ursort or visits -well, it is
almost better to stay at home than to go
unprovided with a stylish loose coal ; for
the days when a knitted shawl or cape
was considered the height of elegance
ore past.
This is to be a season for separate
coats, even for street wear in the day-
time; for evening use over thin frocks
they have never been more in evidence.
there is a marked distinction between
this and last summer's styles.
Lines are distinctly different. Every-
thing is Japanese in character, loose,
without defined Armholes and with full
flowing sleeve, exactly like a kimono.
They are in all lengths, from the pictur-
esque short coat just reaching the hip
lino to those covering the hem of the
dress. The three-quarter length seems
to be the favorite, however.
Some of the French makers are turn-
ing out coats of the Louis XV. and Direc-
loire period, which reveal the lines of the
figure, yet are of a very graceful and
picturesque type: but the prevailing
style is undoubtedly along Japanese
lines. Indeed, so much is ties the case
that if you have "a real righty" (as tho
children say) embroidered kimono, you
may congratulate yourself you are in the
height of Parisian style as far as sum-
mer wraps are concerned. A model for
this style has not been given, as they
would be most difficult to make, since
their style depends on the real oriental
silks
used in hc►
t n and '
ur their gold ant•
broidei•y,
Materials for the summer wrap ore
else quite different. Linens are relegated
to the background, and, instead, one
sees pongees in every color, with lace
dyed to match, flowered silks and every
sort of soft silks, liberty satins and faille.
Shantung is a prime favorite; even
lightweight cloths are much used.
'!'leo white coat, which has held indis-
puled sway for so long. is seldom seen.
Instead, we have attractive self -lone and
biscuit suedes, light brown or a blue not
light enough to soil readily. Two of the
favorite color. are citron and a beautiful
peach lint. These tones harmonize with
almost any gown. The new shade of
blue is also much in evidence.
Very stylish is the model for a hip -
length cent In a lightweight biscuit -
ecotone' cloth with self -toned bands of
soft liberty satin. This coat has one of
the waistouls which are so popular this
year, And prove so useful by -keeping Iho
coat in place when open. A very strik-
ing look is given the whole coat by a
set design of French knots about the size
of a pen embroidered on the edge of the
ribbon. Ribbon could be substituted for
the liberty satin bands.
The next somewhat longer coRl, of soft
flowered silk In violet and mauve, Is
edged all around with a broad band of
lace, dyed violet. it has a double-
breasted vest. Such a coat would be very
easy to make and eginlly effective to
linen er chiffon broadcloth; trimmed
with dyed imitation chary lace, which,
toy the way. is much in vogue. and when
well dyed gives an air of richness to tiny
coal.
Quite an air tins the next cont despite
its si►nplicity. It is of pongee in natural
colors, trimmed with n stlk braid the
sane shade and brill fringe. The vest Is
embroidered in different loves of blue
and with roses. This vest. which is
somewhat difficult In snake. may be
omitted wiltx.ut spoiling the effect of the
coal.
The last graacful wrap. with its slop-
ing lines. Is deweloperl in pule blue
tmoadclnlh w•Rh a rihbnn bending one
and one-half inches wide. The collar
and cuffs are of a heavy Irish leer. but
nny other kind could be used jurat 88
swell. The model is t+othing but a plain
loose mint. sloping sharply from Iho
front 10 the back in a why 1n give a
very French look to the entire wrap.
Sinks and rajahs may now be picked
up at such bargains that any one of these
summer wraps may be copied at cem-
paralivele small cost.
FASIIION NOTE..
The etriclI3 laitor-made woman is
