THE NEED OF MORE LABORERS IN
JAPAN.
Japan is before us this month for
special prayer and study and we will
not prayerfully consider the subject
long before w« conclude that the
greatest need is men to do direct
evangelistic work among the people.
Those of us who had the privilege
of hearing Mr. Bennet of the Ameri
can Baptist Missionary Union, as he
stood in the place of our brethren
Brunson and McCollum, told of the
noble work they are doing in the is
land of Kinshin, with its nine mil
lions of people and plead for eight
men to reinforce them this year, felt
our hearts stirred to greater effort
and prayer that one hundred mission
aries ipay not be wanting and that
eight or ten be sent to Japan. We
found ourselves asking the question,
“Where are these men to come
from?” We have only one appoint
ed to Japan as yet. Are they grad
uating from the Seminary this year ?
Surely some of them are to be found
there, may many of them, for since
there is a minister for every eight
hundred in the United States, those
just entering the ministry will seek a
wider field. It seemed strange to
us that with all the missionary en
thusiasm displayed in Atlanta, with
the number of young men present
there were so few saying, “Here am
I, send me.” We heard some urg
ing others to go, but young people
with apparently no hindrance in
their way are subjecting themselves
to adverse criticism and injuring the
cause by urging others. It is only
those who are ready to be sent
whose appeals come with convincing
power. Shall not the young people
of the South take up this question of
persona] responsibility for the hea
then ? Take it up each for himself
and determine not whether he is
called to go but is he called to stay
at home. Each one can lay the
matter in the Lord’s hands by say
ing, “I am willing and desirous, God
permitting, to be a foreign missiona
ry.” Solemnly, earnestly, let it be
done and then if He wants us for
that service He will show us the
the way.
Let us pray the Lorcf of the har
vest that eight men for Japan may
speedily be found.
Walter Briggs, of Athens, Tenn,
writes: “For six years I had been
afflicted with running sores and an
enlargement of the bone in my leg.
I tried everything I heard without
any permanent benefit until Botanic
Blood Balm was recommended to
me. After using six bottles the
sores healed, and I am now in better
health than I have ever been. I send
this testimonial unsolicited, because
I want others to be benefitted.”

HEART'S HUNGER.
We let them be just for a little while.
tv e cannot bear to put them yet away—
The vacant high chair of a little child.
The torn hatbut worn the other day.
Or the low footstool where our dear one’s feet
Had rested, or the father’s easy chair.
That never more will hold the manly form—
vv e let them stand, the room would look too
bare.
We gaze out in the waning, fading light,
Ihe books and music mock us in the room;
Our hearts are with that new-made grave iu
the night,
All dark and shadow haunted in the gloom.
God pity those who wait iu vain to hear
The sound of feet that ne’er will tread
again;
Or long to kiss white faces hid away.
In their deep beds beneath the snow and
rain.
The wind from out the harp of nature chants
A dirge above them as it passes by;
The dead leaves, tears of autumn, sadly
fall
Upon our sleeping ones, as still they lie.
Oh I ye who never o’er dead loved oges wept,
Who ne’er kissed cold hands and faces
white,
And held out empty arms and hearts to
God,
Can never know the pain we feel to night.

A HOME-MADE REFRIGERATOR.
AN ECONOMICAL DEVICE THAT AN
SWERS EVERY PURPOSE.
Now that ice is furnished at such
reasonable rates country house
keepers have ceased to consider it a
luxury. But oftentimes a woman
who needs this help to summer
housekeeping is prevented for lack
of a refrigerator. The patent ones
are expensive, and more or less
troublesome. Without the greatest
care there is always a close, musty
smell about them, which makes one
hesitate to put in them such absor
bent food as milk and butter.
As the writer has used a home
made ice-box for several years she
would like to give her readers the
benefit of her experience, with direc
tions for making this most satis
factory article. It was built directly
on the sandy cellar bottom and was
really nothing more than two square
boxes, one about a foot smaller than
the other, with the space between
packed with sawdust. Each box
had a hinged cover. The ice was
placed on a rack at the bottom of
the inner box, whence as it slowly
melted the water sank into the soil.
This inner box was so arranged that
the shelves might be placed at differ
ent heights, according to the amount
of ice.
On these shelves the food was
placed, and the only inconvenience
of the whole arrangement came
when fresh ice must be put in. Then
a part or all of the shelves had to be
taken out, but this had to be done
far less often than in an ordinary re
frigerator, as the ice wasted very
slowly. The air in the box was al
ways pure and sweet, and the food
was kept at a lower temperature
than in most ice boxes. Enough
simple board shelves were provided,
so that one.set could be scrubbed
and dried in the open air each week.

HOW JULIA WARD HOWE AMUSED
HER OHILD.
Sometimes our mother would give
us a party,—a delightful affair, with
charades, or magic lantern, or some
thing of the kind. Here is an ac
count of one, written by our mother
herself, in a letter to her sister:
“I have written a play, for our
doll theater, and performed it yes
terday afternoon, with great success.
It occupied nearly an hour. I had
alternately to grunt and [squeak the
parts, while Chev played the
puppets.” (“Chev” was the name by
which she always called our father;
it was an abbreviation of “Chevalier,”
for he was always to her the “knight
without reproach or fear.”) “The
effect was really extremly good.
The spectators were in a dark room
and the little theater, lighted by a
lamp from the top, looked very
pretty.”
This may been the play of
“Beauty and the Beast,” of which
the manuscript is unhappily lost. I
can recall but one passage:
But bethought on “Beauty’s flower,
And he popped into a bower.
And he plucked the fairest rose
That grew beneath his nose.
I remember the theater well, and
thepupets. They were quite un
earthly in their beauty, all except
the “Beast,” a strange furcovered
monstrosity. The “Prince” was
gilded in a moet enchanting manner,
and his mustache curled with an ex
pression of royal pride. I have seen
no other prince like him.
All this was at Green Peace; but
many as are the associations with
her beloved presence there, it is at
the Valley that I most constantly
picture our mother. She loved the
Valley more than any other place on
earth, I think, so it is always pleasant
to fancy her there. Study formed
always an important part of her life.
It was her delight and recreation,
when wearied with household cares,
to plunge into German metaphysics,
or into the works of the Latin poets,
whom she greatly loved.—Laura E.
Richards, in June St. Nicholas.

TENNIS OAKES.
A dainty fancy for lawn party
luncheons are tennis cakes. These
are large cakes of any rich variety;
pound cakes with citron in it is es
pecially nice. A good white cake
flavored with bitter almonds is also
excellent for this purpose. A thick,
snow-white icing covers the cake,
and it is wreathed on the edge with
a laurel crown, the leaves formed of
candied angelica and limes, and the
berries of red cherries. Quarters of
candied oranges are also used to
decorate the wreath. Two small
racquets of ivory-white sugar, hold,
ing three silver tennis balls, their
handles crossed, decorate the centre
of the cake. A decorator skilful in
the use of confectioners’ tubes might
sketch on the cake other appropriate
ornaments with pink sugar, though it
is very effective left pure white in
side the laurel wreath, with no other
decorations save the crossed rac
quets.

SABBATH SUNSET.
’Twas evening, while the slanting ray
Made roofs all gold anil streets all gloom;
Site rested at the close of day.
Her heart in peace, in peace her room.
And gently fell upon the calm
1 he old cathedral’s evening chime,
Making her soul a silent paslm,
Like some unspoken poet’s rhyme.
She rose to see the quiet sky,
As called by some celestial lips.
And lo! the glden gates on high
Revealed a John s Apocalypse.
Opened by God’s almighty hand
lo eyes that have the heart to see,
She gazes on that blissful land
Which gives to time, eternity.
The lowing kine upon the mead,
I he swallows in the sunny air.
The creataires-which on matter teed;
See not heaven's gate in vision there.
Within her, thoughts eternal glow,
Eternal love breaks into prayer;
Her room, the world, the street below,
Her new and vast compassions share.
Will all life’s days so fAirly close—
m that street where shadows lie ?
Will they but fall in death’s repose
lo wake to heaven’s Epiphany ?
The sick, the weary, and the podr,
'’lutdly seek thy living street,
” ill 1 ’? y 11 9 tbUt mansion door,
The place where want and fullness meet ?
She prayed, O painter of the land,
ror which all men and ages wait!
Grant that ollr tribes at last may stand
Within its everlasting gate.
A VISIT FROM HELEN KELLER.
Helen came one afternoon with
Miss Sullivan and Miss Marrett,
another teacher in the school, and
also one of our graduates.
In the evening, the students were
all invited into the drawing-room to
meet the visitors and to see what
wonders have been done for this
once helpless child. She stood with
her arm about Miss Sullivan’s neck,
a tall child for her age, with a
very bright and smiling face.
As the different girls came up to
meet her, Miss Sullivan repeated
their names to Helen by means of
the deaf-and-dumb alphabet, and
Helen spoke to them.
You ask how can that be? ,
One of the most marvelous things
of all is, that she has learned to
articulate. Think of it! She has
never heard a human voice in her
life. Os course, her articulation is
very imperfect; but when she speaks
slowly, one can understand quite
well what he says. Her teachers
think that in a year or two her utter
ance will be perfectly distinct. Her
voice is necessarily peculiar, and
listening to its monotonous tones,
one can better appreciate how im
portant hearing is to modulation and
expression.
About thirty girls were introduced
to her, for each of whom she had a
pleasant word. I think in no one
case did she forget a name.
She felt of the faces, hair, and
dress, learning each ’feature, while
every personal peculiarity seemed
firmily fixed in her mind.
Some of the girls told her they
had recently been to Concord and
Lexington, whereupon Helen began
to describe her viiyt there. She
spoke of the hills about Concord
looking like “beautiful clouds;” and
said that the “bending trees were
there, the folding ferns among the
grass, and the fairies and wood-elves
whispering among the violets.”
She said she visited the Alcotts’
house, and could well imagine “Jo,
sitting by the window, writing:
Amy, near by, drawing; and sweet
Beth sewing; while Meg and Mr.
Brooke were merrily chatting to
gether.”
Some one mentioned “The Minute-
Man.” Mr. French’s statute, mark
ing the famous battle-ground at Con
cosd; and. Helen cried eagerly,
“Yes! and ‘fired the shot heard
round the world!’ ” quoting from
Emerson’s beautiful ode, the first
lines of which have been inscribed
upon the pedestal of the statue:
By the rude bridire that arched the flood, .
Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Hence once the embattled famous stood.
And fired the shot heard round the world!
Soon she added, “Isn’t it dreadful
for men to kill each other ?’ But I
think it is good not to be afraid of
death, and to be ready to fight for
one’s country. My father wouldn’t
be afraid to die; he fought in the
Rebellion.”
Helen is a rather pretty child, and
has perfect manners. She is very
affectionate, and seems devotedly at
tached to Miss Sullivan. Every few
minutes she would caress her, with a
loving smile; and she seems to have
a similar affection for all her friends.
She has great tact, and has that in
nate refinement of word and action
which it is so delightful to see.
She has been doing a beautful
work of charity. She owned a fine
mastiff last winter, which died, and
the loss made her quite sad. Some
friends raised three hundred dollars,
and sent it to her as a gift with
which to buy another dog. In the
mean time Helen heard of a boy, five
years old, Tommy Strenger, who
also was blind and deaf. Her tender
sympathy was aroused, and she im
mediately decided to use her money
for Tommy’s needs. But the yearly
expense for one person at the Insti
tute is more than twice as much
money as Helen had. Quite confi
dent of success, the little girl wrote
letters to nine newspapers, each dif
ferently expressed, stating Tommy’s
needs. As a consequence many sub
scriptions were sent to Helen, and
Tommy has now been an inmate of
the asylum for a year or more.
In telling us of Tommy, she
said, “When he was a little baby, his
dear mama died, and then he was
sick, and the light went out of his
eyes, and the hearing from his ears.
Now he has come to be educated.
And by and by,” she added, “when
he knows-more words, he will un
destand what a wonderful thing lan
guage is, and how education brings
music and love to body and soul.”
It is difficult to realize that such
words are from the lips of a child
not then twelve years old.—June St.
Nicholas.
A LITTLE STORY.
Dear Children I want to tell
you an amusing little story that I
read years and years ago when I
was a little girl. It was published
in the Index. Often have I re
peated it to little folks who have
begged me to “please tell them a
story.” “In a far off land—so the
story goes—There was a King who
was very rich and he had ai most
lovely daughter. This King was so
very fond of hearing stories told,
that he finally made a decree that if
any subject of his could tell a story
that would never end, he would give
him the half of his own kingdom,
and his lovely daughter for his wife.
In case however the story came to
an end; the teller thereof should
loose his life. Many came and be
gan their story, but alas! the end
would come sometime. At last a
young prince who loved the young
princess decided to try. He was
warned of the fate of others. Thus
he began. “Once there was a great
King, who was warned that a great
famine was coming. The King de
cided it would be wise to make pre
paration for the day of calamity, so
he had a great granary built, and
stored with corn. The granary was
then fastened securely.
Now it happened that the builders
had left a very small hole in the top
or side of the gramary. By and by
a drove of locusts came by. They
spipd this hole and decided to help
themselves. “So one locust went in
and got a grain of corn, and then
another locust went in and got a
grain of corn, and then another
locust went in and got a, grain of
corn, and then another locust went
in and got a grain of corn.” This mo
notonous story went on several days
when the King exclaimed. Have
done with your missible locusts and
proceed with your story. How
can loh King! when I have only
begun ? The locust have only made
a begining. “And then another lo
cust. “Away with your locust cried
the King! Take my kingdom, my
daughter! but let me hear no
more of the locust. And so 1
suppose the young princes and
princess were married and lived
happy ever after. So ends the
story. But dear children, There
is a Great and Good King who lov
ing his subjects and knowing that a
time of great desolatioh is coming,
has prepared splendid Mansions and
great provisions for their every
joy. He loves to hear a story, and
has invited you and me to tell one
for Him. It is the sweet story of
the Cross. It is a story begun in the
eternal world and one that will never
end, “The Old Old Story of Jesus
and His Love.” Do you love to tell
it? Begin now in your youth to
love this sweet Saviour and then
how gladly you will tell it to those
around you. What a precious
Saviour to leave the splendid courts
of Heaven and come to die on the
cross for you and me. I wonder
how many of the children who read
“The Childrens Corner” have al
ready given their hearts to Jesus.
You can each be a young soldier to
tell this sweet story and fight bat
tles for your King. Aunt Mary.

DISTANCES TO WASHINGTON.
From St. Louis to Washington the
distance is 894 miles, from Cincinna
ti to Washington 553 miles; from
Chicago to Washington 813 miles.
This is via the bee line followed by
the B. & O. railroad, the most pict
uresque as well as the most direct
route from the Mississippi River to
the. Atlantic Seaboard, stretching
across level and fertile prairie, amid
hills and valleys, over mountain
crests, along banks of historic rivers
through teeming cities and bustling
towns. Through B. <& O. trains,
with full Pullman equipment of
Sleeping, Parlor and Buffet cars, run
rom St. Louis to Washington in 20
hours, from Cincinnati to Washing
ton 18 hodrs; from Chicago to Wash
ihgton in 25 hours. Sleepers from all
points run through to New York
from the West without change. At
Washington connection is made
with the B. & O.’s matchless Royal
Blue Line for Baltimore, Philadel
phia and New York. These Royal
Blue trains consist of the staunches
and finest Coaches, Parlor and Sleep
ing cars ever built by the Fullman
Company; are vestibuled from end,
and are protected by Pullman’s im
proved anti-telescoping device,
which makes every car as safe as it
can be made by man’s ingenuity and
skill. All the cars are heated by
steam and lighted by Pintsch gas.
They are the fastest trains in the
world, placing New York and Wash
