*
* *
Fresh from the hands of the
I creator, we find our first heroine
wandering through flowery fields,
.‘grace in all her steps, heaven in
her eye, in every movement dignity
and love.”
•*
★ *
To the divine worship of “re
splendent Eve” Scripture attributes
the downfall of mankind.
“Hand in band, with wandering steps
and slow,
Through Eden they took their solitary
way.”
Everywhere the heroine is the
complement of the hero. In the
shadow of Jupiter’s temple rises
the vestal fire of Juno’s altar, and
while Mars conquered kingdoms
abroad, Minerva preserved them
| at home.
shadows the flowers of Christian
fortitude and resignation.
Resplendent beauty, unrivaled
charms, brilliant mental accom
plishments, fortified by the royal
blood of the Ptolemies, and offset
by the splendor of a sensual epoch,
Cleopatra with her thousand arts,
is no less dazzling to modern im
agination that when, dallying with
an Antony, she aspired to be mis
tress of the world.
*
* *
At the foot of the cross, what
an imposing Magdalen Cleopatra
would have been ! What higher
tribute could Christianity pay the
“dull-eyed Octavia” than did this
guilty pagan enchantress ? Con
scious of having forfeited all re
spect—proud, vain, imperious
woman that she was—the humili
ations of gracing a Roman triumph
paled before her dread of meeting
the “chastisement of the sober
eye.”
A heroine lost us Eden ; it was
but fitting that a heroine should
restore us to our rightful heritage.
All pagan ages worshiped the
woman of one or more brave deeds,
but it remained for the humble
Virgin of the House of David to
elevate, to proclaim to the end of
time the sacredness of all woman
kind.
At the consummation of her
heaven born mission the “oracles
were struck dumb,” and the self
same star that guided the Magi to
the shrine of the most perfect hero
leads the Christian world to the
foot of Calvary for the model of
the most perfect heroine.
IN LONELINESS.
In lonely days when solitude
Contrasts with cheerier days gone
by,
When thick and chill the shadows
Drood,
And clouds are sullen in the sky,
Sometimes in days that pass slow
paced,
That creep along, are dull and gray,
A vision comes, sweet, eager-faced,
The dream of that dear yesterday
When life was full of joy and hope,
When work was paid by swift re
ward,
When doors of fortune, quick to ope,
Made light the burden, siiioothed
„ the hard
Steep path, and cheated us of pain;
Would those bright days might dawn
again!
And yet the memory of their shiue
Throws on our gloom a gleam divine.
—Harpers Bazar.

Not till Achilles dragged dead

did Grecian arms receive its crown

vanities and ambitions of Herodias,
the cruelty with which she de-

heroic woman. Turn to the “lays

Flernarhable Rescue.
Mi-s. Michael Curtain, Plainfield,
Ill., makes the statement that she
caught cold, which settled on her
lungs ; she was treated for a month
by her family physician, but grew
worse. He told her she was a
hopeless victim of consumption
and that no medicine could cure
her. Her druggist suggested Dr.
King’s New Discovery for con
sumption ; she bought a bottle and
to her delight found herself bene-
fitted from first dose. She con
tinued its use and afte£ taking six
bottles found herself sound and
well; now does her own house
work, and is as well as she ever
was. Free trial bottles of this
great Discovery at Bryant & Fin
cher’s drug store. Large bottles

How fades the patriotism of the
pagan in the light of the heaven
born inspiration of the Maid of
Orleans. What of the Madame
Rolands and Charlotte Cordays,
the self-sacrificing Florence Night
ingale, Grace Darling or Kate
Shelby ? Despite the decadence
on every side of reverence for high
ideals, the germs of the highest
heroism are with us still. Another
Concord, another flag of the Union
will not call in vain for a Molly
Pitcher, a Ba bara Frietcliie. Trite
but true is the aphorism : “It is
not the force upon, but the power
behind the throne that makes and
unmakes worlds.” Reserve powei
is woman’s divine birth right. It
is as effective today as it was in

Women of whom the public never

Mrs. Cleveland’s Courtesy.
The following pretty story is
told of Mrs. Grover Cleveland:
At one of the public receptions
given at the White House, an old
lady, who was drawn up in the
line that was pushing its way for
ward to shake hands with the
president’s wife, dropped her
handkerchief just before getting
to Mrs. Cleveland. She was too
old and rheumatic to stoop. down
and recover it, and those back of
her in the line were too intent
upon getting the one fleeting
glimpse possible of the mistress of
the White House to notice the old
lady’s loss, and the handkerchief
was trampled upon roughly.
Just before the old lady reached
her, Mrs. Cleveland stepped out
of her place and deftly picked up
the handkerchief, tucked it in her
dress, and taking her own fresh
one—which was of the most deli
cate dainty lace—smilingly handed
it to the old lady with the sweet
remark: “Please take mine, and
when you get home send it hack
to me, will you ? ” And when
the handkerchief came hack to her
Mrs. Cleveland returned that of
the owner, freshly laundered, lying
on the top of a beautiful box ot
rosebuds that came from the
White House conservatory.

our commerce is chafing and fret

Digging canals, securing islands,
outports, coaling stations, cable
stations, fortified ports, havens of

Sayings of the Sages.
Addison—A man who is fur
nished arguments from the mint
will convince his antagonist much
sooner than one who draws them
from reason and philosophy.
Sydney Snfith—There are some
men who continue to astonish and
please the world, even in support
of a bad cause. They are mighty
in their fallacies and beautiful in
their errors.
Leslie Stephen—We do not
wonder when a man gives a false
character to his neighbor, hut it is
always curious to see how a man
contrives to present a false testi
monial to himself.
Disraeli—Man is made to adore
and obey; but if you do not com
mand him, if you give him noth
ing to worship, he will fashion his
own divinities and find a chieftan
in his own pissions.
