IT ROUBLES THE BEAUTY Of TOUR All you need is a 25 cent bottle of ‘‘Danderine” - Hair gets lustrous, fluffy and abundant at once. Immediate?—Yes! Certain?—that's the joy of it. Your hair becomes ligflit, wavy, fluffy, abundant and appears as soft, lustrous and beautiful as a ycung- girl’s after a Danderine hair cleanse. Just try this—moisten a cloth with a little Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. This will cleanse the hair of dust, dirt or excessive oil and in jJist a few moments you have doubled the beauty of your hair. A delightful surprise awaits, partic ularly those v who have been careless, whose hair has been neglected or is scraggy, faded, dry. brittle or thin. Be sides beautifying the hair. Danderine dissolves every particle of dandruff; cleanses, purifies and invigorates the scalp, forever stopping itching and fall ing hair* but what will please you most will be after a few weeks’ use of Dan derine. when you will actually see new hair—fine and downy at first—yes—but really new hair growing all over the scalp. If you care for pretty, soft hair, and lots of it: surely get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton’s Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter and just try it. (Advt.) in tbe (lark and felt very well satisfied. One of our joint resolutions this year was to try to keep up our dainty ways, not to get into a rut even though we did work hard. When 1 decided it was time to look after my bulbs T stooped down, and looked under the roof, for it is an attic closet, and you never would know what I say—merely a pine board across tho tops of the pots and n most hetero geneous collection of broken china. When they got the china there is what gets me, the board was already in the closet. Of course the bulbs could not grow through an inch plank. Did I say that there shouldn’t be any ruts In a life? Tell me how to have anything except one, aud that named in this instance twins. Their old black Mammy will do anything to shield them and so will their father. .Some times I threaten to run away and let the two rear the brunt of affairs for a week, but if I J should go for more than a day there wouldn’t i 1)0 any need for me to come back—some calam ity would happen and neither of them know it was one until they fejt or saw direful effects. Are mine the only twins in Our Household, or are they only the most obstreperous? Let’s hear from some of the others. Sincerely, MRS. ALEXANDER.

THQFLA& Did you ever have a whiff of per fume. a flower or a song to take you back to a past that had been buried so long that its resurrection seemed friore like a dream 'than reality? This morning the sun tame over the hills like a mammoth red ball, a vivid red that one seldom sees on this side, but exactly the shade of the Japanese flag. You know it is a red sun on a white ground. This morning the ground was frozen, a biting wind was on a verita ble rampage and my mind went back to a morning in Japan when I went with three Japanese friends to visit the pa rents of one of them. This young wife was about nineteen, but *she had been married a number of years. A most re bellious bride she was, too, for she was very ambitious and had planned to fin ish her education in Tokyo and perhaps come to America, for the family was wealthy and she was the only girl. However she was doomed to disappoint ment. for there was a very wealthy family hunting a wife tor their son and this girl’s beauty and w r ealth appealed to them. My acquaintance came through the young wife’s continued rebellion. The husband was rebellious, too, he had not wanted to marry, mere was a beautiful crop of wild oats that he wanted to sow, and the marriage had 1 not b£en a success. The husband's family had about decided that she would run away or kill herself and came to me asking that I would please make a Christian of her. I explained that religion was not to be administered as a dose of medicine, but was a chapge of heart and an enlightened mind.^Then they wanted me to teach her. This I consented to do, if the husband would also come. I taught several that way and found that it frequently gave them their first congenial' ideas, or ideas £>f mutual interest or companionship. Nev er will I forget the style with whicn she came. One often* sees pictures of Japanese girls or women, but don’t im agine for an instant that they are the pictures of ladies; unsess they have given any to a friend you will not see it. The pictures we see over here are geisTTSs ana all of them belong to the so-called “submerged tenth.” This young wife was accompanied by a maid who carried the little bundle containing her material for fancy work, for I was going to teach her to do drawn work. Here is where another il lusion will perish, for most people on this side of the Pacific thin£ they are experts in all sorts of embroidery and drawn work. Their embroidery is quite different from ours, as many of the girls are attending mission schools and learning and the _big storey in the ports, where travelers go sight-seeing are having a great deal of it done; it is quite natural for,^people to think they do it for themselves. Missionaries who work among the women often find one that has been discarded by her family, on account of her religion, and if she shows an aptitude she is taught em broidery. This child-wife wanted to learn to knit and do drawn work and learn to cook like the American ladies. She joined the classes and proved quite apt in all of them. Some day I will tell you of some of our fun .among the cook pots, for we really enjoyed the hours spent that way. Many of you, doubtless, wonder how these classes helped Christianity. Well, while they were embroidering or knitting, my Bible woman would tell them a Gospel story or explain some hymn to them, and as they advanced they were taught the Apostles’ Creed, Ten Commandments, Beatitudes and some of the Psalms. We always begun with the Lord’s prayer. But all this is not telling you about that visit. You think that you know what cold weather is, but there is nothing in this country to compare to the cold over there be cause that cold is so penetrating, every thing being on islands naturally inten sifies the dampness, and as one is sel dom out of sight of the moutains you see how the wind sweeps down their snow covered sides. We were to start at 6, mind you, the two places were only eighteen miles apart. We were on time but the train did not leave until after. 7, and we reached our destination abobut 10. From the streets one, would not think much of the wealth of the owners un less one were well versed in Japanese ways for the house was very plain and had a high fence made of plaster. But inside there was enough to open your eyes so wide there would be danger of pot getting 'them closed very soon. As I was an honored guest, their daughters’' foreign teacher, and as she had told them of the visits she made to my house they had their best pictures and mats out. My cottage was really most insignificant for I only had actual necessities, but the furniture in my own room was made like all of us use in this country and I had a table to eat on and an organ, all of which were inter esting to them. In most all of the Jap anese houses, as you have heard or read, many times, the partitions are pa per, clear white paper that cannot be seen through. This paper is pasted over frames somewhat like our old'style small window panes. Well, in this grand house, I started to say in this home, but they have no word in their language that can be translated home, in this house the partitions were of silk, very similar to what we call rajah in this country. There It ts called raw silk. The room was warmed by what is called jardinieres filled with a fine jlust or powder and live bits of charcoal Ion top of it. The fire boxes in this room j were magnificent bronze affairs that j wer priceless and the basket contain- i ing the charcoal, if the fire should need ! replenishing, was worth as much as all the furniture in my room, counting the cost from an American price list. The pictures on the walls were hung for that special occasion. We hang our pictures and there they stay until we tire of them or something happens to mar them. The Japanese have different pictures for each month, also for spe cial occasions. In my little Japanese house there had to be fine pictures, as many people came to see me and the Christians did not want the “Honorable Place,” as a certain niche .in every best room is called, to be unadorned. So each month a dear old lady, a veri table “mother in Israel,” brought one from her numerous and really fine col lection and. hung it in my sitting room. The Bible ^voman and this dear old soul held very earnest consultations about the pictures and the flowers, for both are as important in the Japanese mind as chairs and tables are with us. That dinner was a wonder. We did not eat with the family, but each mem ber came into this handsome room and' visited with the four of us and then would get out. They sent us a mag nificent dinner, some dainties that I never heard of anywhere else. I have an idea that they were just about a -week fixing up that feast. When it was over we' went sightseeing and when we returned the family had all sorts of curios to show me. About 6 o’clock, pitch dark it would have been but for the street lamps, we started home. Of course we had eaten supper at the house as well as dinner and about 10 p. m. I reached my own plaoe of abode. Tired was no name for my feelings. The strain of so much ceremony in a stranger’s house, the long, cold day, and the fact that I never saw a chair dur ing the time, will give one some idea of a side of the missionary’s life that few people realize. But I enjoyed it. I loved the girl and the visit formed an added tie. When she was homesick # she could talk to me freely, for I had been to the house of her parents, had seen them and had talked them. The young husband came to me twice a week for instruc tion in English and always went to church and Sunday school. The wife was not allowed to go. Before I left Japan I had the pleasure of seeing bolh of them converted and she told me that it was the happiest year she had lived since she was a little girl, ignorant of the. bondage of the average Japanese woman. This story is the same, with some minor variations, as you will hear from almost any one who has spent any time in mission work over there. The year has just begun with you. How much have you pledged to missions? Don’t put it off. Start now. Faithfully yours, LIZZIE O. THOMAS. THE TWINS AND THE BULBS. Dear Mies Thomas: Those babies of mine, twins that can't be beaten, have kept me too busy to do more than read Our Household. 1 wish that you could see them. I would have a picture of them made for you, but they say “no. no,” and when they do you may be sure its to be that way. You know all about the various insects that have eyes in the back of their heads, under their wings and all about? These twins can look four ways any time—if they cannot they can make you think so, for you can’t creep up on them. I wonder if 1 told you, about making almost superhuman endeavors to have some bulbs bloom ing this Christmas.

On day. hand in hand with fell despair, I stood upon a bleak and lonely shore, And listened to the harsh, discordant voices Of myriad gulls that circled overhead And mocked me with their cries. An angry cloud o’erlnpped the friendly suu ’Till not one beam could reach and bless my tired eyes. Back o'er the land I gazed and out upon the sea— No loving face along the path whence I had come— No guiding hand to point me to my goal. Then something broke the bonds of my despair. My ears were opened, and from out toe va6t infinitude I heard the ringing echo of that voice Which first spake unto the souls of listening men More than nineteen hundred years ago. “Whoso shall walk a thorny way Does not tread unbroken ground.” My pierced feet have felt each thorn— By bleeding feet have marked each step. What though the sun should hide his face. And darkest night encompass thee? Was ever night on earth move dark Than when, iu Gethsemane, I prayed alone? However keen thy sorrow is. However rough thy earthly path. Through stress and storm, remember this, For the,e Iby Lord hath marked the way. —VISTA BLACK. SUCCESS “He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of Intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it. whether by an im proved poppy, a perfect poem or a rescued soul; who has never lacked apreclation of earth’s beauty, or failed to exress it; who has always looked for the best in others and given the best he had; whose life was an insiration, whose memory a benediction.” MBS. A. J. STANLEY. God made a new beginning with Noah and his family after the flood. All the wicked people had been destroyed; there were none left anywhere but these four couples, everyone of whom at least had had sufficient evidences to make them strong believers in God, and followers of righteousness. Surely they would j heed the pleadings of God’s spirit now, and do that which was right in God’s j sight. | But—and I sperfk it with all reverence, for it was not God’s fault—this effort to have a people who would follow God and resist the devil was a miserable failure. Soon an element began to grow in strength that was utterly God-oppos ed. This anti-Christian (as we would call it today) element finally flowered out in their blaspheming in an effort to build up a temple for their religion at Babel, which should make their devil ish religion as high in power as heaven. Then God interfered by the confusion of tongues. He scattered the people and weakened the strength of the opposi tion. The descendants of Shem went south ward and eastward following th e route of the fertile valley of the Euphrates toward the Persian gulf. Here they multiplied in numbers, in wealth, in luxury, and in sin. Years afterward, just how many we do not know, Terah, although an idolater himself, moved away from the land, probably becoming disbusted with the sin with which he found himself and his family surround ed. He traveled north and westerly along the road which finally led through Palestine southward to Egypt. Ho took with him all of his family that would go, Nahor remaining. GOD’S CALL TO SEPARATION. I think it is reasonably certain that the primary cause of Terah’s removal was his eldest son Abram, though an idolater like his fathers, yet had used such knowledge of God as he had to good advantage. He realized the gross ness of the sin of his surroundings, and in his communion with God th e best SOME GOOD RECIPES iBy Elizabeth Lee SAUCE TAHTARE, This is excellent wi.th any kind- of fish and is quite easy to make. Mix in a small bowl one teaspoonful dry mustard, one-half teaspoonful of powdered sugar, one-half teaspoonful of salt and one-quarter saltspoon of cayenne. Add the yolks of two eggs thoroughly chilled and stir with a'^sil- ver fork. Measure out one cupful olive oil, and begin adding to the yolks a few drops at a time, stirring until it thickens. If the emulsion thickens too much to beat readily, thin with a little lemon juice, then add lemon and oil alternately until yob have used all the oil and two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice. Lastly, beat in two tablespoon fuls of tarragon vinegar. This makes a regular mayonnaise which should be smooth and thick. Now, to make into a sauce tartare, add ’ one table spoonful minced onion and parsley, a tablespoonful chopped pickle and olives or capers, as preferred. This sauce put into a glass jar will keep for several weeks in cold weather. SQUIRREL DISHES. The following is a southern recipe for cooking squirrels, though first of all it may be well to say the squirrels should be fat, otherwise they w’.ll eat dry even though they are cooked with added butte|\ The animals being skinned and drawn, cut the thin skin on each side of the stomach close to the ribs, then wipe thoroughly with a damp cloth. Sprinkle with pepper. Put a layer of fat bacon, sliced, on a roasting pan, and lay the squirrels on this bed. Cover closely with more bacon. Pour into the pan half a cup of good broth or hot water made rich with beef extract, and bake in a mod erate oven, basting every ten minutes. They will probably take an hour, cer tainly not less, to bake.* When done take up the squirrels and* keep hot while the gravy is being made. Skim all the fat from' the pan, then put in a tablespoonful of flour. Stir all tTie time- until it browns, then add one cup of boiling water, the juice of a lemon, a tablespoonful of chopped pickle, and half a cup of catsup. Cook altogether until smooth and well thickened, then pour over the squirrels and serve at once. Large squirrels are sometimes made into a stew. They are cut into joints and gently stewed with sliced fat pork, tomatoes, Lima beans, and sliced onion. Sliced parboiled potatoes are added a short time before serving. The cook ing should be gentle, just simmering, and will probably take about three hours. Water is used, of course, but even so the contents of the pot will need stirring occasionally. Also, before cooking, the joints should lie in cold salted -water for half an hour. This draws out the blood. CREAM ROLLS. Cream rolls are not difficult to mak^. The secret lies in the knowing how. For the “crust” you make a puff paste. The proportions are h*lf a pound of best butter, a pint of flour, one-half teaspoonful of salt, and about half a cup of icewater. You probably already know the process of making puff paste, the rolling and then putting away to get thoroughly chilled. The rolls are' made over tin tubes, the length as desired. You roll the paste out very thin, not more than one-eighth of an inch thick, and then cut into strips three- quarter inches wide and long enough to covqr the tube when wound around it. Begin at one end, and, as you wind, let the edges overlap, because this makes the ridges on the crust. Next, set in rather a warm place when the pastry will rise. As soon as the “joins” in the pastry have disappeared and the roll looks much as it should after being baked, it is ready for the oven. The tubes are laid on a flat baking pan. This is why one side of the roll is flattened a lit tle. In placing the tubes keel) the ends apart to allow the heat to enter the hollow space. You see, the oven must be slow, still the pastry must be well cooked, or it will be soggy. Hence the reason why the heat is necessary on the inside as well as the outside of the rolls. • When the pastry is done, the» rolls will slip, off the tin tubes without any trouble. * If they stick, bake a little longer. Set away to cool and then fill with a meringe, made from the whites of two eggs beaten up with sugar and flavor ing, or whipped cream, sweetened and flavored to taste. WILSON’S LUCKY NUMBER 13 STILL FOLLOWS HIM PENSION MONEY READY X FOR MANY COUNTIES he knew how, God had said to him: “Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that 1 will shew thee. And in discussing his plans and purposes, his father had joined him and gone with him as far as Haran. Here Terah died. Abram turned southward from here, God directing him in some way we do not know. Probably the way seemed to show more promise of pasture for their flocks, and this may have been the providential way in which God guided him. He did not know where life was going. He knew only that he was obey- ' and S° in S to some land that He had promised to shew him. It was a great undertaking for a man of seventy- five to pull up stakes, leave his coun try, his friends, his relatives, and make a long perilous journey to an unknown land No doubt some of his old friends told him he was a fool to think of such a thing. I am quite sure some thought he was losing his mind. But he had the wisdom that comes from a fear of God a reverence for His person and plans! and this is the beginning of wisdom! Hid you ever hear the names of any of the people who lived in Ur of the Chal dees at that time? But who has not heard of Abram’s except those in dens est paganism? Of course, it was a severe test to Abram. It was a sacrifice which every missionary has had to make, to leave country and kindred, to leave the known for the unknown. But Abram had no alternative. He had yielded himself to j Go<J ’ and these were God’s orders. He trusted God to know what He was do ing, to know what wa? best for him and j Sarah, his servants and his flocks. That was God’s part; his part was to obey. And just as Good had said unto him he did. ABRAM’S OBEDIENCE. This was exactly what God needed—a man who would obey Him, trusting Him to do the rest. He had failed (I speak after the manner of men, and with the deepest reverence) in His former attempts to make a people whom He could use to wrest from Satan this por tion of the universe, which he had stol en in his rebellion. What God needed "was a man who would obey Him im- plicity, trusting Him to plan and pro vide wisely and adequately. With such a man He could succeed. Separation was needed for this. It /would have been exceedingly difficult for Abram to raise a family amid the surroundings of Ur to whom God could reveal Himself, and in whom He could manifest Himself as He desired. Not by any means do I mean that environment is ever greater than God, but I do state that in that day it was essential to the proper development of Abram’s faith that he separate himself from his sur roundings in order that God might do the largest work in him. Thank God, Ab^m trusted and obeVed. God is greater than your environ ment, but often it is necessary to the proper development of the largest faith in you that you separate yourself from you r surroundings, the old associations with their powerful suggestions, the old friends pulling away from God, often your own family. If the com mand should come to you, no matter how great the sacrifice, will you not trust G^>d to know what is wisest for you, and obey llim instantly and im plicitly? Abram finally reached Canaan. The environment in one way was worse, for it was inhabited by the Canaanites who were the descendants or cursed Ham, and the vilest and most vicious people then on earth. But his attitude to them was different from that towards the Ur-ites. His first act indicated his character. How often we can read a man’s whole life by one little act! As soon as Abram reached Sheshom he builded an altor to Jehovah—an act of worship to sig nify his faith in God, hi§ gratitude to God for His protection and provision through all that perilous »uurney, and to ask what further steps He would have him take that he might continue to walk in the way of the will of God. When he left Shechom he picked up his tents, but he left the altar; then built another vyhen he reached Bethel. For generations these altars stood as reminders of the faith and obedience of the man who at seventy-five years of age left everything men count dead to obey God even though it made him ap pear a fool in the eyes of bis former friends. * My brethren. God is calling upon you and upon me for that same thing—not necessarily to leave home always, but to leave the old life, to separate our selves from everything that would pull us down, and to go out trusting Him for direction, obeying Him implicitly, and on every occasion acknowledge His leadership. His protection, His provis ion, before we take the next step. Abram has many sons in the faith to day. Are you one?
