STAR OF ETERAAL LIFE. V Star ui Bethlehem, wonderful Sight To all who behold your beautiful light! As thy gleam led the Kings of old. Lead us also into the fold. Star of righteousness and purity, gleam, And over life's pathways in fullness beam. Till every foul sinner comes to the stream To which thou hast pointed for ages unseen. The stream that started from Calvary's Cross. To sweep before it the devil and his force: The blood of Jesus, Heaven’s loss, But the s’nner’s redemption, if he’ll feel remorse. Shall Heaven record indeed a loss Os the Prince of Glory who died on the Cross? God forbid; let our souls feel the poxver Os the Royal blood in a cleansing shoxver. Now come one and all. you children of God, And let not this blessing from us depart; But teach all the sinful children of men The meaning of this blessing to them.

The other could not ansxver, but wrote at once to a friend, stated the case, and asked his friend if it would seem presumptuous for him to ask the man for $25,000. The reply came at once, “Presumptuous? No, in deed; you are only asking him to accept a $25,01K) blessing.” An invitation to give is an offer of a sanctified piece of ground that xvill yield a million blessings to an acre. Oh, if xve only had wisdom enough to accept the offer of the ground, grace enough to soxv the seed, and consecration enough to pass the blessings on as fast as we reap them, these constant calls for money would cease in a single decade.

Hard and Rough Laboring Work Makes Them Appear Old and Hag gard Before They Reach Thirty. Charms of the Women of the Upper Classes. Woman occupies a position of un usual prominence in Poland. Some place her as superior to man in nearly every way. In the various conspiracies and in the revolutions against Russia Polish xvomen have had an important part. Many have given up all their worldly goods in the cause of their country, while others have fought on the field of battle and lost their lives in the same cause. Still others have gone into exile without a murmur. They are capable of any sacrifice for patriot ism. and they prove their sincerity by their actions The women are still the most zealous patriots, and it Is due to them more than the other sex that patriotic feeling Is still so Intense. Thus writes Nevin O. Winter in his ‘Poland of Today and Yesterday.” The Polish women, he continues, nave always been noted for their beau ty and the perfect shape of their hands and feet They take part in all the so cial aIT airs. and no festival Is complete without their presence. They are ex tremely good linguists, and nearly all speak two or three languages. In War saw I met one young woman of nine teen or twenty summers, just out of school, who spoke Russian. German, French and English almost as fluently as her native Polish This is not an uncommon accomplishment. The women do not enjoy the social freedom of the American girls, as the chaperon is still a necessity to protect the good name of a girl. They are never left unprotected. .Marriages are made in much the same manner as in France, and the contracting parties frequently know little about each other before they are joined for better or worse. •‘The wilt of my honored parents has ever been a sacred law to me.” says the Polish girl, with resignation. When a messenger came with a proposal of marriage If a goose was served xvith dark gravy at dinner or a pumpkin was put in the carriage as he was leav ing this meant that the offer was posi tively refused “He was treated to a goose fricassee” was an expression frequently heard in the olden days. The Polish women of the upper class es are undoubtedly charming and pos sessed of the graces of true womanli ness. Perhaps it is the possession of these womanly qualities and the ab sence of the masculine elements wherein lies their real charm. A pen cil or brush is certainly a better me dium than a pen to portray such at tractive types of womanhood. The lot of the peasant woman, how ever, is especially hard, as it is with all Slav races, and this is noticeable throughout all the Polish provinces. They do more than their full share of the family work. Sometimes one xvill see more women in the fields than men. and a kaleidoscopic effect of color is then visible Blue, green, yellow, gold and silver are mingled in various com binations. They pin up the overskirt, which leaves a bright petticoat exposed to view. Woman is valued chiefly for the work she can do. and she is expected to bear a large family of children as well. For a man to say that his wife does more work than a horse or two horses is considered the acme of praise. It is no wonder that a girl naturally attractive soon grows old and haggard. Hard work, with little pleasure, the care of a numerous fam ily and no regard for personal attrac tion must inevitably leave their mark before many years; hence it is that many of these Polish women look hag gard and old even before they have passed the third decade of life. There are. indeed, few bright spots in a Polish peasant girl’s life after marriage. Ln their youth some of the girls are very attractive, and they look quite charming in their pictur esque national costumes that are still common in Galicia. They generally go barefooted in summer, for boots cost money. Sometimes they will carry their boots when going to church and only put them on just before en tering the sanctuary. •‘Do women work on the railroads as section hands?” 1 asked a fellow pas senger on the railway in Galicia, i had seen groups of women along the track with pick and shovel in hand, but could scarcely believe that they did the hard work of that occupation. •‘Yes. and they do the work better than the men,” he replied. At Cracow 1 have seen them carry ing mortar for the masons and plaster ers where new buildings are being erected. They were spading the flow er beds In the parks and were doing the work as well as the masculine overseer could have done it. They bang paper or paint a bouse. It did not make any difference whether there I were three or a dozen women working i together there was always one man who did nothing but act an overseer Along the roads they may be sees carrying heavy bundles or pushing . loaded wheelbarrows. Every where they may be observed doing work that involves considerable physical strength. Solitude can be delightful only to the innocent. Leszczynski.
