THE SEWING ROOM', If you wish to freshen a faded yoke of an evening dross which may be used for the remainder a the aeason, try painting the figures with oil paints or elyea. A sheer white dress may he treated with a sate - ell design in rose. A sailor's bag of whit; makes an excellent launtat, boy' a room.

VALUABLE IIINTS, If a quick dessert is wanted, use mpovers. As the batter is poueed into the tine, add a. piece of fruit to eh; served with A simple syrup; thesc mpovers are delicious. Kid heves may be 'cleaned, whim slightly soiled, with a small piece of oiled silk wound tightly about the finger and rabbed vigorously ver the surface of the glove. When the head et a hatpin comes off if it is of gime, porcelain or wood, ineltaa bit of resin stick the pin into the resin, insert it in the ornamentt'and it will hold well. A delimous bard sauce is made with the usual tablespoonful of butter, creamed with a cupful of sugar and two tablespoonfuls of whipped cream beaten in at the last. For starching muslins, ginghsont and calicoes, dissolve a piece of alum the size of a hickory nut for every pint of starch'. This will keep the color bright for a long time. When your hot-water bottles leak do not throw them away, but fill with hot sand. Make the sand hot in .the oven aud pour into the bot- tle. It will keep hot much longer than water. When „dusting ceilings and Walls it is a good plan to fit the broom - head with a bag, provided with a string to draw it elose. With this the ceiling and walls can- be con- veniently dusted. A good silence cloth -for the din- ing table can be made wiht a double thickness of white flannel laid with the soft side on the inside and quilled on th e machine; edge with a binding of white tape. Mutton dripping will not set hard and suety, as it usually does, if directly the fat is poured from the bakinet'tin, the vessel containing it is put at the back of the stove and allowed to stay there until the stove itself cools. - When oysters are left over from stews or creamed mixtures they can be chopped and •used as salad or croquettes. For the fernier the tye must be removed, and it is bet- ter to do so for any cooking where the whole oYster is not essential.

STUDY INTERNATIONAL LESSON, APRIL 21, Lesson Elisha Ileals Naa-, Man the Syrian, 2 Mugs Golden Text, Isla 45. 22. Vaasa L 13y him Jehovah had givett victory unto Syria—Naanaan is unknown te history excent through this story, and we are' un- certain whether victories over As - eyrie are meat, or Conquests of Israel, Either is plausible. S.yria had already felt the power of the expanding kingdom of the Assyri- ans, while Israel, ou the other hand, had suffered from the depre- dations of the Syrians. A well- founded tradition, supported by Jesephus, makes Naantan the sol- dier who, at the battle of ilamoth- "drew his bow at 4 ven- ture," thereby killing king Ahab. But he was a leper—This more than offset his rank, the honor. •Which he 1VA5 held by the people, the favor he had wen from Ben - and his great courage. The strange thing about hit afflietion, however, was the fact that it did not cause his isolation, at would have been the easeinIsrael. 2. The Syrians had gone out in bands,—Ileing little encurceered, it was easy for theta, to Mabe raid upon an unproteeterl eetiQn of tamatry and make off with plinalea• before they ceuld be followed. 3. Would that my lord were with the prophet—This is a conmientarY upon the attractive eliaraeter ef Naaman, whieh made u little girl fond of Linn and a king fnrnisla ex- travagant sums for his cure, and the servants solicitous of Lis wel- fare (verses and 13), A. letter unto the king E lerael---He took it for granted that the king vould command the ser- vices of this Man of GodLittLe - did he know a the independent spirit of the propliete. The gift which he sent A.IQUIS: with the letter \tea an immenei ono, no less than $50,000 of our money. 7. The king . rent bis clothes --Nothing was said in the lette about the prophet, and Jeborani could ace in the message only a occasion for a quarrel, and there was nothing he dreaded more thau the hostility of his warlike neigh. bor. It seems strange that the thought of Elishradid not oceur to him, for the invasion of Moab had brought him into special promin- ence before the king, and even a little maiden knew alma his works of wonder and believed he was equal to an incurable digease like leprosy. 11. Nauman was wroth—Bis pride and patriotism had both been hurt. First, he was made to stand as a suppliant at the door of the house of Elisha (9). Then, instead of be- ing received by Elisha in person, as bis rank would seem to demand„ he was greeted by a messenger (10). But the prophet was determined to humble still farther this man who came with such show of worldly pride (compare verses 5, 6, 9). Let him bathe in the Jordan if he would ,be clean. This was a climax of of- fensiveness. Why was it necessary to take this long journey of thirty 'miles and to wash in a muddy stream like Jordan, -when his own Damascus was famous for its clear and beautiful streams, its Abanah and •Pha.rpsa (la)? Na,aman hart expected to be received with great deference and cured by seine sort of magic (11). 13. Mv father—An unusual term di affection and respect. Surely, they reasoned, a Man of such cour- age would not have shrunk from some great and difficult test. Why, then, should he refuse this easy and hurable one? 14- His flesh came again—There was no thaumaturgical power in the waters of the Jordan, but there was power in God, a,nd that•power be- came available to Seaman, because he obeyed in humility of spirit. „15. The cure had two immediate results: (1). Na.aman's acknowledg- ment of jehovah as the true God and his remarkable decision to give himself to the service of Jehovah. (2) His gratitude which impelled him to return the entire distance and urge upon .,Elisha the accept- ance of a present. And now, thOr- ,, humbled (notice his words; thy seevant),' Naaman is admitted into, the, presence of Ensile, and the latter's hope is realized, that this warrior should know that in Israel Was a prophet, a man of God and not a mere cunning no- cromanher like those in Damascus (c pare verse 8) 16. He urged him to take it, but he yefesecl—Such gifts were cus- tomary at heathen -oracles, and were not prohibited in the case of the Prophets (2 Kings 4- 42). 131.1t, Elisha, living as he did a life of few ants, aonvtsa,could thbefore wra oi:ldaffolodteahobit7e all rewards in the solemn language, A stand, will receive none.

NEW$ FROM SUNSET COAST it seemed to Naarnan that even tile soil presidett over lay sueh a God must be sacred; It was a universal belief that the god of eaeh land eoald be worshipp.ect only on his own soil, Similar seausoperstitions feel- ings are not uncommon, to -day, (2) Naaman's wish to be forgiven whe he attended his king as heretefore irt the teillpie of RililnlOn to worship there. This was a real diffieulty. The captain of the king's host had made up his mind to serve only Jehovah, and yet, in the proseeue tion of his official duties, it would be necessary for him to -follow the king's example and bow down be- fore the image of the Syrian gad of 'thunder. The answer given by Midis, shows that he took the cor- rect view of this request, looking upon it as the sign of a fine consci- ence rather than as a compromise with ovil. There is a warning here, however, that we must beware of n extereal ceeformity to a system we do not believe. 20, My master bath spared this "raarnan the Syrian—The 'words are THE WESTERN PEOPLE ARE DOING, rogress the treat.

I was ushered into an immense room lighted by a petro- leum lamp suspended from the ceil- ing. In the background was a camp bed, and near it a stove, a, small table, two claers and a wash- stand. Sines that time the eondi- tions have ahanged radically, anti now prisoners iri the fortreas have much more luxurious quarters. A few minutes later another soldier entered the room, saluted, and re- ported himself for service. I7p till this moment I had not fully realiz- ed the luxuries of 'honorable cus- tody' in the fortress.
