CARTOON I3Y HARRY FURNISS , MADE

FOR THE LONDON
This is pretty strong evidence in favor of the "jupe eplotte," for
Harry Furniss is some pumpkins am ang the newapaper artists of the
other aide. But stronger evidence is the oartoo.n printed above, which
Furnise drew for the London Mirror to prove Ida point. This cartoon

tremely ugly.
Elea the blouse, it will 'hold an important
plarie. In our affections. People are
getting a little tired of the severe tail-
orreade, and this dissatisfaction shows
itself in the new short coat. - Built on
leas elassical lines thou those to which
we have hitherto been accustomed, it
lends iteelf to a profusion of ornamenta-
tion in the form of embroideriee and
braidieg until it becomes more the crea-
tion of a fashionable dressmaker than
of a smart tailor. These eoatees,.allied
to the corselet skirt, are being much
worn in Paris. The eollare, are in some
caeee so large that they are reminiscent
of the pelerine. Revers have become 1
the most, important feature of the coat.
The newest is in triple form, the first
two are made of the same shade as
the dress. and usually of the same ma-
terial. These are half concealed by the
third, which is of quite a different
shade, edge a with a piping of some
color which makes the most effeetiye
contrast. The collar itself is made of
the same material as the aorta and is
often riehly ornamented, and caught or.
-to the revere by bratorie and loops of
card. This makea a welcome change
from the one-sided "envelope" flapla
vers whieh dominates the World of fash-
ion just now. Gun-metal, carved wood-
en and imitation ivory buttons, and
others, covered with the material of
the dress, and oval itt shape are muell
worn with the new tailormades.

our frocks, without any semblance of

God's gracious government to suspend
the execution of a tairaat4110d puniah-
ment on man's siticere repentance, as it
is to execute it in the case of obstiro

III. Seeks all nationa for His people.
This lesson portrays to us God's groat
mercy and man's object selfishness. We
see that Material God has to transform
into skilful workmen who will rightly
divide "the word of truth." Whosoever
exalteth himself., though it be in the
service of a divine comraission, shall be
humbled. Jonah wanted to be a minister
of wrath to sinners. National antipathy
and religious exelusiveness will account
for Jonah's conduet toward the Gentile
world. -T, R. A.
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS.
"The preaching that 1 bid thee" (3. 2.)
The all -wise lather sees the world With
all its needs. He sees con little waves
with our hopes, aspirations, capabilities
and limitation& He sees our home
town, our county, state and nation, but
Ile sets other states and nations aleo.
He sees the regions across the seas and
yearns for the salvatAon of its peoples.
He sends his voice into the soul of one
of his followers, and that voice echoes
es word, "Go." In foreign missionary
work the Mager sets the needy field,
calls upon his servant to go to it, and
gives the message to deliver. John the
Baptist had a me.seage (Matt. 3: 2),
Jesus had a message (Matt. 4: 17), and
Paul had a message (2 Cor. 4; 5.) The
message that God bade Jonah preach
was brief and pointed, and reached the
eare ,and hearts of the people. It Is the
measage that God gives now that reach-
es hearts. It ie a fruitless effort to try
to fix up a message of our own leavo
God out of the question. Suelinefforts
bear the impress of man and not of the
Holy Spirit.
"Ory mightily unto God" (3: 8.) the
effect of the meiesage was to produce
ecnvietion, and eueh conviction as found
its expression in deep humiliation. That
heathen kina took the stand that every
right-thinking sinner should take. tie
humbled himself and cried unto God.
The Ninevites believed the message, and,
believing it, they cried unto God. There
is little hope of tat -conversion of that
soul" who will not c'all upon the Lord.
The king's exitortetion denotes intense
earnestness. Fe,eble, spasmodic efforts
do not avail. The cry eontinud until the
answer came. This heathen people set
am example for a more enlightened age.
Two hundred years after Jonah, the last
king of Muria, proclaimed a fast of a
hundred daya, bee:mese an enemy was
appronehing, and the people prayed to
their sun-god to deliver them, but they
rewired no answer. The nation was
overthrown.

"Goa prepared a gourd" (4: 0.) For
the refi asap -mot and e,ornfort of his ehild-

ditheartened prophet needed eneourage-
molt and instruction. The gourd -was

nab, can not see beyond our own inter-
ests to take in the sight of a world made
better by orir apparent lose. We are in-

the pleaeant shade for a time that he
may tench us a lesson.

fish" (Jonah 1: 17), "God prepared a
gourd" (4: 0), ""talod prepared a NV01131."
The W01111 was to destroy tha gourd that
Jonah's mind might be opened to receive
the leason that, as he had enjoyed the
gourd and desired its preservation, so
God loved Nineveh and desired its pre-
servation. In Christian experience there
is the "gourd" of encouragement and re.
freshing, and there is the "worm"of
sorrow and disappointment to chasten
and refine us. We may Well thank God
not only for the paned, but also for the
wornt.

SERVANT GIRLS

Norway ani Sweden.
Help So Scarce in Germany Also
That it Dictates Terms.
Berlin, April 23, -Domestic servants
have become so scarce in. Germany that
they are able almost to dictate terms
to their employers, The dearth of ser -
mode is due largely. to Germany's in-
clustrial prosperity, which creates a great
demand for female labor in all branches
of eoinmerce and manufacture.
These servante available demand fancy
prices for their services, and many of
them insiat on having some .part of every
evening in the week free fax their own
enjoyment, and the most moderato are
not aonteut with less than leave of
alatenee every Sunday and two or three
evenings the week.
Some insitt on being ealled Miss
Schmidt, or whatever the eurname ma,y
be, instead of submitting to being ad-
dressed in the old-fashioned way by- the
Christian name. Others demand that
they ehall be adsnittea to eat at their
employer's table as social equals and to
such privations have numerous house-
wives been reduced through the lack of
servante that they consent to this stipit.
lation.
Many servants refuse to enter it house-
hold where there are children, and oth-
ers draw the lino at dogs or other four -
footed pets. Others insist on their mis.
&eases giving them written promiees to
fulfill 'their domande, down to the num.
ber of bottles of beer due to them every
day.
The servant pt•oblem is scarcely less
acute In the Scandinavian countries. The
servants in Denmark, „Norway and Swed-
en have started an organizatioit with
offices at Copenhagen, Chrietiania, and
Stockholm, the demands they have
formulated are:
1, The suppression of all night
work; servants to knockoff at 9 o'clock
in the evening and to rest until 7 o'clock
nest morning.
2. Extra pay for servants ahould
they be requested to work after 0 o'clock
as, for instance, when company is being
entertairma.
3. A. night out from 5 (tato& every
week, Sunday off from 10 o'clock in (be

night's summer holiday, the regular
