There have been very restless times
over almost all of the world. The
United States has been in the throes
of the election that every four years
interrupts business and disrupts plans.
I suppose there is no better way for a
republic to be managed, but it does
seem a pity that things could not be
smoother. After sixteen years of pow
er I suspect it was hard for one party
to see another take up the government
and put one of their .choice in the
White House. Let us not forget to
pray that our new president may make
few mistakes, and rule wisely. I had
two friends to lunch with me last week
and it so happened that one was a
classmate of the secretary of agricul
ture, and the other was often in the
home of the Axons at Rome. So much
has been said about Mrs. Wilson’s tal
ent .far, painting, and Kate said she
then had some beautiful pictures. But
it was not to discuss our president’s
family that I started this chat, but to
note the universal unrest Lnd to say
that we are to be thankful tnat ours is
no worse.
England has her suffragettes, her
discontent among the laboring classes
and the eternal vigilance that must be
exercised to keep her political fences in
perfect repair.
Germany, too, has dissensions at
home, and jealousies even among the
kaiser’s children. He is such a spec
tacular monarch and has the ambition
of Napoleon, but cannot quite adopt
Napoleon’s methods. His daughter’s
marriage removes a thorn that has al
ways been in his side—the rivalry of
the house that her marriage will set
tle. She had been booked, so many
thought, and some openly said, for Eng
land’s heir to the throne, but this was
too good an opportunity to unite rival
houses nearer home.
Spain, I suspect, rues the day that
Isabella gave her gems to raise the
money for Columbus to get his boats
and men. And when we consider the
make and disabilities of those boats
one hardly comprehends any one’s
starting on an untried voyage in them.
Not only has her last American posses
sion slipped through her fingers, but
th e defeat here and in the Philippines
has done much to weaken the ruling
house in Spain. The king has done
his best, but there have been too many
antiquated ideas in vogue and too great
a distance, or distinction, among the
classes and* masses. The leaven of un
rest has permeated the kindom and
shutting their eyes to the fact is no
way to counteract the influence. Italy
had troubles enough of her own with
out having to go to war, yet the re
sult was entirely satisfactory to her
if not to some others.
“Uneasy i sthe head that wears a
crown” was written in the days when
might made right, but it continues until
this good day and nobody more literally
carries his life in his hand than does
the czar of all the Russias. It is hard
to say which, as a nation, is more arro
gant, and disdainful, Russia or Spain.
I believe the Spaniards keep theirs less
in evidence. I have seen Russians of
the so-called higher classes lift a man
of the lower class off the sidewalk and
into the mud with the toe of his boot
about like a headless one here might
treat a dog on the sidewalk when he
wanted to pass.
India is seetihing with unrest and
I might call attention, and name almost
every nation and show you something
unpleasant in their paths that should
be strewn with roses, but the nearness
of Turkey’s defeat, the approaching
probilem of that dismemberment calls
for a few remarks concerning the allies.
The four kings in the war against Tur
key are a strange quartet to be working
together, and are likely to hold out for
what they believe to be right. There
was no boyish indignation prompting
their determination to go to war. 'Nich
olas, of Montenegro, is seventy-one
years old. He has reigned fifty-two
years and has done well for his country.
His has always been a poetic tempera
ment, but he fights with the zeal of,a
crusader.
George of Greece is almost sixty-
seven. He is a native of Denmark and
was put on the throne by the allied
powers. He has ruled Greece many
years and is greatly beloved by his
people. He too is a scholar, courteous,
quiet, and more a diplomat than a war
rior.
Ferdinand, of Bulgaria, is the young
est of the four. He is fifty-one and
has reigned twenty-five years. While
he is a scholar he is also a trained sol
dier.
Peter, of Servia, has only been a ruler
for nine years. Most of you remember
the murder of King Alexander and
Queen Draga in 1903. He is sixty-eight
ycUrs old and has had to show con
siderable diplomacy and executive abil
ity to ease the factions that were
brought prominently into the limelight
when that awful, that incredibly vicious
murder was committed.
Turkey has always been one of the
problems of Europe and of Asia. That
country has been in a turmoil and has
caused more bloodshed, innocent victims
usually, than, almost all the rest of the
world. If we include, this war now
going on I am sure it takes the lead in
its rivers of blood and mounds or
mutilated girls and women. Why has
it not been effaced? eVar after year the
quetsion has been asked and the only
answer is that no one country wanted
j the responsibility when it would throw
so many nations at the mercy of each
other.
It has taken these four insignificants,
comparatively speaking, and hundreds
of thousands of lives to show the al
lied powers what they could have done
years ago. The Mohammedans have
hated the world. They never say their
prayers without putting in one about
the subjugation of the world for their
prophet. To them there is no cruelty
in maiming or killing one who does
not believe as they do. The sword of
the prophet has been their slogan and it
will be a terrible blow to them to lose
such a stronghold as Adrianople and
the other places that the Balkan allies
will claim. When the Young Turks
overthrew the government and assumed
control there was hope that the spots
of the leopard might diminish or at
least his ferocity be quenched, but the
world was disappointed. Promises were
made, that land is an adept at playing
fast and loose with the truth, but those
promises amounted to the same thing
as those of the envoys who went to Lon
don to treat with the peace envoys of
the Balkan states. Greece knew them
better than the others, and kept right
on fighting. Had she, too, laid down
her arms the munitions of war would
have been renewed in every weakened
spot and by the time the porte had re
inforced his army he would have called
home his envoys in London and have
been ready to carry on the struggle. To
my mind it seems that Greece is re
sponsible, or will be, for the final vic
tory. But *this Chat is growing too
long for such a theme. There is Mexi
co with rebellion and treacherous Castro
trying again for Venezuela and a score
of smaller fry ready to swallow or be
swallowed in the upheaval.
There are plenty of people who will
tell you that all this means that the
end of the world is at hand. Don’t be
lieve a word of it. Nobody knows one
iota more about the date of the world’s
end than you or I, and the Bible is
our authority for t*he statement that
nobody knows nor was it intended for
us to know. Get a good history of
the people about the year 1000 and you
will see that even then dates were being
fixed for the event. Yet here we are
and the world is about as solid as it
then was.
There is but one golden mean, one
lever to lift us higher in the true sense
of the word. W.e must love our fellow
men and be willing to share with them.
“And thq Lord make you to increase
and abound in love toward one another,
and toward all men.” This must come
to pass before the millenium.
Faithfully yours, *
LIZZIE O. THOMAS.
AFTER A LONG SILENCE
Dear Miss Thomas: It has been a long time
since I have appeared among you, but I hope
you can give me a tiny place again. When I
last wrote to you I was just out of an in
firmary, and in mortal fear of having to go
hack, but as time passes I can see that I
gain in strength, and therefore in hope of
ultimately becoming much more comfortable, if
not well.
What is interesting the Household most these
days? Are any of you suffragettes? That
seems to be interesting a great many of the
women of the day. Of course Montgomery has
its Equal Suffrage club, hut I’ve never found
strength to go to a meeting to see what they
are trying to accomplish. I went into a public
office not long since and saw a grayhaired
lady in earnest conversation with a man and
girl of the office, and could not help but
overhear that they were discussing woman’s suf
frage. The elderly lady was on my side of
the window, and when the gentleman said,
“You will have to pay poll tax,” she said,
*'Yes, and we’ll do it much more promptly
than you men do.”
After she passed on I asked If I’d got Into
a suffragette meeting, and learned that the
girl at the office bad received an Invitation
to attend a meeting. I asked her if she meant
to join and she replied that she would have
to have her switch first. Whereupon, the
man exclaimed, “Switch! You’ll need a big
stick.”
It is rather amusing to see how much in
earnest these suffragettes are. I shall be
glad if they accomplish anything more im-
pcrtant than the old-fashioned women did, but
I can’t see how anytuing could be more'im
portant than bringing up their sons and daugh
ters to be honorable members of society. I
am surprised that so little has been said on
the subject when Georgia tent such a prom
inent delegation to Washington.
But enough of this—I want all of my old
friends to knovvj that I am waiting to hear from
them again. During my stay at the infirmary
I am afraid some of my mail was lost, or re
turned to the writers.
Cordially,
MISS IH5KCY WILKINSON.
422 Mildred St., Montgomery, Ala.
For March 16—Gen. 22:1-15.
Golden Test: “I desired mercy, and not sacrifice, and the knowledg-e of
God more than burnt offering's.”—Hosea 6:6.
When Abraham was 100 years old,
God gave to him a son who was the
promised heir. He made it very plain
to him in the succeeding years that al
though Ishmael was the first born, yet
it was not he that was to be the heir,
but that through, Isaac the promise
would be realized that in him and in his
seed would all the families of the earth
be blessed.
I am sure that as the boy developed
Abraham learned to love him very de
votedly. As he was very rich, he was
able to surround him with all the com
forts that wealth can give, and to give
him all the advantages that a lavish
love could suggest .for his highest de
velopment. I’ve no doubt that he had
him constantly with him, giving him
the benefit which association with his
father will mean to a boy. As Isaac
grew to young manhood, and Abraham
began to realize how much he loved
him, a very disturbing thought entered
his mind. All about him he saw the
fires of the Cananites as they worship
ped their gods by offering to them their
children in sacrifices. Here and there he
hearta of one whose devotion reached
the point where he was willing to offer
his first born son as a sacrifice to his
god. I think that Abraham began
to wonder if he really loved Jehovah, his
God, in the same way his neigbors did,
and to question himself as to whether
would be willing to show his
devotion to his God in the same
way that his neigrbors were show
ing their devotion to their gods. I
think frequently as he as debating this
subject in his mind, there must have
ccme to him the thought that God did
not require this of him since it was
through Isaac he had said the promise
would come.
I don’t know how long those thoughts
troubled him, but finally one night God
spoke to him giving definite shape to
the musings of his mind, a$d said, “Take
now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom
thou lovest, and get thee into the land
of Moriah; and offer him there for a
burnt offering upon one of the moun
tains which I will tell thee of.” The
magnificent thing about this incident is
that Abraham obeyed immediately.
Early the next morning he made prepa
rations, and started on the three days’
journey.
Those three days were day# of terri
ble agony for Abraham. It would have
been much easier to bear if it had been
all at once, but to have it stretched out
made the hours seem days. Finally,
they reached the base of the mountain.
It was Mt. Moriah which David pur
chased l.DOO years later from Arounah,
who used it as a threshing floor. On
this hill the temple was built and near
that spot in after years the Son of God
was offered up a sacrifice for us.
It was a place too sacred for other
eyes, so Abraham left the young men
who had accompanied them to look after
the asses, and laying the wood for the
offering on the- shoulders of his son
Isaac, they went up together to the
brow of the hill.
Can you imagine Isaac’s feelings? If
Abraham had not told him of his inten
tions, he at least was so familiar with
the practice of human sacrifice that he
could suspect what his father had in
mind. That he went at all, and more
that he went willingly reveals a faith
almost as remarkable in the son as
that of his father. In some ways it
was more remarkable, for Abraham had
the experience of years to develop his,
while Isaac’s youth was bua a- guaran
tee of his inexperience. Finally, Isaac
spoke and said, ‘‘Behold the fire and the
wood; but where is the lamb for a
burnt offering?” With magnificent faith,
I do not think with even a tremble in
his voice, Abraham replied, “My son,
God will provide himself, a lamb.” Then
with perfect submission to his father’s
will, as his father was manifesting per
fect submission to his Father’s will,
they proceeded to ascend to the sum
mit.
When they reached the place of which
God had told him, Abrahanf built the
altar, laid the wood in order, bound
Isaac, his son, and laid him upon , the
altar of wood. He stretched forth his
hand, took the knife, a,nd raised it—but
the blow never fell. God arrested him
there, calling, “Abraham, Abraham,” and
pointing to a lamb which had been
caught in the thicket, ordered him to
offer this in the stead of his son. His
purpose was accomplished, He knew now
that Abraham feared him, and. was will
ing to offer his best to Him without re
serve. t
Abraham had stood the test. During
the last twenty-five years, God had been
proving him in various ways. He had
put upon him one strain after another,
and on the whole Abraham had measur
ed up to each of thejn, now He had
placed him upon the severest test of all,
and Abraham had shown himself equal
to it. God was assured now, and of
course we speak in terms of human
thought, that Abraham was the kind of
man out of whom He could build a na
tion.
In what did this test consist? Did God
ever expect Abraham to murder his son?
Did Abraham expect that God would re
quire him to take the life of his son
whom he loved better than his life? Or
was God testing him to prove whether
or no’ he was willing to go to the utmost
in order to obey God, and conform im
plicitly to His will? I have no question
in my own mind but what Abraham fully
expected to have to take the life of his
son. At least he was willing to do that
if necessary. The writer to the Hebrews
tells us that he had faith enough to be
lieve if it did become necessary, that God
who had given him, could give him back
to him again if it became necessary.
What God wanted was a servant who
would yield completely to His will. He
did not want a human sacrifice; in fact
He forever get the seal of His disapprov
al upon this; and it is a fact that never
again in the history of the Jewish nation
were human sacrifices offered, unless,
perhaps, when they had forgotten God,
and were worshipping idols.
God wants today just such implicit obe
dience and trust from you, as He expect
ed from Abraham. He is testing you
every day. It comes to you in a differ
ent form, possibly, than that in which
it comes to me, certainly different from
the form in which it came to Abraham;
and yet, the supreme test that He re
quires of us, is whether we are willing to
yield our very best to Him.
My brethren, .dojj’t be afraid of God,
or of God's will. Have the faith of Abra
ham, and if He asks for your very best,
if He asks for that which you hold dear
est, offer it to Him. It will be*no sacri
fice, for whatever He takes from you He

HOLIDAY CANDIES—French cream
candies command the highest prices In
the market, and they can easily be
made at home. My sisters make hun
dreds of pounds * every year &nd take
orders in advance of the holidays. Here
is the receipe:
Put four cups of white granulated
sugar and one cup water into a bright
tin pan on the range. Boil without
stirring for ten minutes. Jf it looks
somewhat thick, test it by letting some
drop from spoon; if it threads, remove
from stove. Take out a small spoonful
and rub it against the sides of a bowl.
If becomes creamy, pour the whole
into the bowl.
When cool enough to bear your fin
ger take the bowl in your lap.and beat
the syrup with a large spoon. It will
soon begin to look like cream and will
grow stiffer until it is necessary to
knead it in your hands like dough. If it
has not boiled enough t<? cream put it
back on the range and let it remain
two or three minutes, or as long as
necessary.
If it should be grainy it has cooked
too much, or has been stirred. If so,
put it back in the pan, add a little hot
water, boil and test as before.
If properly made it will be smooth
and can be worked on the table (a piece
of marble is best) like dough, and it
will give you so much more in return
that you will be the gainer in the end.
What is He asking of you today? Give it
to Him gladly. You can make no mis
take in yielding to Him. You will make
a serious mistake in refusing.
can be kept in the icebox until all used
up. If the cream gets too cold to work,
warm it.
Take small portions of the cream and
flavor and color as desired, then make
into desirable shapes.
Red or pink colosing: Two cents*
worth cochineal; lay on plate, bruise
with knife blade, put into half teacup
alcohol, let stand 16 minutes and filter
through muslin. Always ready for im*
mediate use. Cork bottle tight. Beet
juice may be used if desired but the re
sults are not so good.
Yellow coloring: Take a little saffron,
put into earthen vessel with a small
quantity of cold soft water, let steep
until infusion is a bright yellow; strain,
add half cup alcohol and bottle tightly.
Fruit and vegetable coloring matter
may be bought, ready prepared in the
market.
There are so many ways to make up
these candies.
Take small bits, roll in balls, press
half of English walnut in, put on plates
to cool.
Chop raisins, nuts and figs v mix with
the cream, mould, then slice.
Make small bits into balls, dip In
melted chocolate (bitter), remove with
hatpin, lay on buttered paper.
Grate cocoanut (a day or two before
wanted ) t lay on paper to dry, then mix
with cream and form into balls or
sticks.
Put together layers of different col
ors, then slice.
Split dates on one side, remove seed,

A SOUTH GEORGIA GARDEN
Dear Household: I am coming to tell you
about my garden. Ever since I have been
housekeeping we have had a garden just in
any old place,” down in the filed, away
orf from the house, so the chickens couldn’t
find it, as it was not fenced in. This year
we have a fine new garden, wired in, joining
toe yard, so we are going to put in a lot of
tune gardening and maybe overdo the thing.
Busy Bee, I’ll race witl\ you, so I will teli
you what we have planted. Today is the 27th
of February. The first in our garden are
five rows of strawberry plants. They are In
bloom and have some berries on them. Next
come two rows of English peas, two rows of
cabbage, two of onions, one of radishes, let
tuce and beets; then two of Irish potatoes.
The radishes and onions will soon be large
enough to eat. Miss Thomas didn’t tell us if
her garden was in Florida or near Atlanta,
but it must be the latter place, as she speaks
of just setting out the cabbage plants.
Say, Busy Bee, I have one advantage over
you for I live in south Georgia, wnere we can
have vegetables earlier than you can up there,
but you may have more time at your disposal
than 1, for I have two babies to care for,
two little faces to keep clean and two little

Mrs, Wilson’s Teas
Mrs. Wilson the new chatelaine of
the white house, is becoming acquainted
with official Washington in a very
charming fashion. Her 5 o’clock teas,
which were instituted at once, promise
to become a famous feature of her res
idence in the white house. Mrs. Mar
shall and the women of the cabinet cir
cle were her guests at 5 o’clock Mon
day, and Tuesday at the same hour,
the women of the supreme court circle
made up the little party that had tea
with Mrs. Wilson and her daughters.
Another pleasant memory was added
to the many that cluster about the
white house library when Mrs. Wil
son entertained there the women who
will be most closely associated with
her during the coming four years. In
the interesting apartment on the sec
ond floor of the house, into which,
over sixty years ago, one of the most
cultivated of Mrs. Wilson’s predeces
sors, Mrs. Millard Fillmore,. gathered
the first volumes and other necessary
furnishings of a library. Mrs. Wilson
brought together during the tea hour
the women of the new official family.
There were a ,few absentees. Mrs.
Garrison, wife of the secretary of war,
who was in Washington for the
hearffi to keep combed, and their clothes to be
washed, starched, ironed aud patched when
needed.
Mrs. Alexander, mine are not twins, but there
Is not much difference in their ages. Len is
a boy three years old and the baby girl avus
one year old Tuesday. She is pulling at my
dress now and demanding a share of my at

ELIZABETH WABING.
Beatrice, Neb. — “ Just after my mar
riage my left side began to pain me and
the pain got so severe at times that I
suffered terribly with it. I visited three
doctors and each one wanted to operate
on me but I would not consent to an op
eration. I heard of the good Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound was
doing for others and I used several hot
ties of it with the result (hat I haven’t
been bothered with my side since then.
I am in good health and I have two little
girls. ”—Mrs. R. B. Child, Beatrice. Neb.
The Other Case.
Cary, Maine. — “ I feel it a duty I owe
to all suffering women to tell what Lydia
E. Pinkham’n Vegetable Compound did
forme. One year ago I found myself a
terrible sufferer. I had pains in both
sides and such a soreness I could scarcely
straighten up at times. My back ached,
I had no appetite and was so nervous I
could not sleep, then I would be so tired
mornings that I could scarcely get
around. It seemed almost impossible
to move or do a bit of work and I
thought I never would be any better
until I submitted to an operation, but
my husband thought I had better write
to you and I did so, stating my symp
toms. I commenced taking Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and
soon felt like a new woman. I had no
pains, slept well, had good appetite and
could do almost all my own work for a
family of four. I shall always feel that
I owe my good health to your Vegetable
Compound.”—Mrs. Hayward Sowers,
Cary, Maine.
