\
Women.
Women wears the diadem and
mystic keys of deep and inner
knowledge. Muscle represents
material strength, but not the
sign of human superiority. Wo-
man's shining powers raise her
above necessity for the armor of
physical corporeity, the refine-
ment of her frame revealing the
swift vitality of nerve. Her
sceptre is empyreal, because it
is sounded in the security of sub-
limited authority. Upholding the
masculine qualities in their real-
ism, from the region of her lofty
idealism. Woman's reign is the
triumph of humanity, in the in-
tuitional standard of her attain-
ments and in the mystery of her
supreme exaltation.
Her voice is rule; her smile is
empire; her wisdom is command;
and her right is dominion.
The departure of summer leaves
us sad, when we look around
us and notice the absence of all
the treasured plants that bright-
ened our gardens and homes.
"Blessings brighten as they take
their flight." and the quenching
of so much song, sunshine and
sweetness that we have enjoyed
through the fleeting months cf
summer, naturally brings a feel-
ing of depression. We visit the
places once filled with summer
splendor and find no more the
brightness that was wont to
gladden us as we wandered by
the silvery stream, beneath the
wide spreading boughs of oaks
that stretched their emerald arms
to support the tender clinging
vines now brown and seer. The
air is full of eahoes of departed
joy. But to some the cold fresh
days bring a renewal 'of health
and happiness, while to others a
eense of something gone from
out their lives. Though our nest
has been rifled and we mourn
over empty shells so suggestive
of joys and hopes that once ours,
there must remain in the hetrt
an assurance that the summer
will cchne Main Wringing with it
all the-fres^^ladness that has
left u." Ah, no, not ended, we
have extracted its honey and
distilled its dews, and the song
we fancied had come to an end
is laid away, to be put in tune at
a warmer brighter day. Nature
must change her melodies. She
sings in a major key for a time,
but the plaintive tones of the
wind as they rustle the dying
leaves bring if not a gladness,
still a soothing feeling, like some
noble psalm that is more elevat-
ing than the turbulent trill of the
summer warblers.
Look for the Sunshine.
How much of sorrow this life
holds for even the brightest and
most favored of human kind;
how every cup has its dregs, and
every life its shadows; how em-
pty and unsatisfactory are the
highest goals to wnich we may
climb in the world's opinion;
h)w the favors for which we la-
bor so hard, with a single turn
oT fortune's wheel may be snatch •
ed from us. And we thought:
is Heaven a sufficient recom-
pense for all we miss here? Will
the heart that finds no restful
peace in fame or honor, or even
love find a peace beneath the
throne, that will endure through
an endless eternity?
.We had begun to doubt when
quickly came the thought, "Look
for the sunshine" and with the
thought, the sun burst through
the clouds, and shown through
the window upon the paper on
which we wrote. The glass pa
per weight caught its rays and
relected them in a hola of colors
as fairly resplendent as a jeweled
crown. We rested from our work
and basked in its light.
Look for the sunshine and it
will come. The clouds are tran-
sient as things of earth; the sun
is always behind them and some
times when we least expect it the
glorious light will shine through
or
of
A Woman's Sphere.
They talk abouta woman's sphere
As though it had a limit;
There's not a place in earth or
heaven,
There's not a task to mankind
given,
There's not a blessing or a woe.
There's not a whispered yes or
no,
There's not a life, or death
birth
That has a feather's weight
worth,
Without a woman in it.
Women of the world are usual
)y the queens of the home.
; Let this light reflect around
this revolving world; woman's
real work is on character, her
surest weapor is influence.
Every wife should be the mis
tress of her own home. But the
grandmother and mother-in-law
should be the most welcome and
the most respected of all visitors.
A little kindly courtesy goes a
good ways in a busy household,
and if in our home we use the
same politeness we offer our
guests we shall have no ill-fitting
"company manners."
The unmarried woman works
for necessity, for love of her de
pendent ones, for love of some
beautiful or beneficent profession
for sweet mercy and charity to
the ignorant, for horror of de-
pendence opon those on whom
she has no claim—seldom for
business, ambition or material
accumulation.
While a man admires womanly
bjauty, yet in married life he
admires much more—a good
square meal cooked by his loving
spouse; and let a wife have little
or no knowledge of the art of
housekeeping, domestic eeonomy
or is a poor cook,be her husband
rich as Croesus, her lot will be
miserable.
Creation advanced from the
simple to the more complex, from
the low to the high. Man is la-
ter and higher than the fish of
the sea, the birds of the air and
the beasts of the field, and wo-
man is later and higher than man
—last and highest work of cre-
ative energy. In woman the dust
of the earth reaches its ultimate
possibilities. It is susceptible of
no finer organization.
"Can be depended upon" is an ex-
pression wo all like to hear, and when
it is used in connection with Chamber-
ltin's Colic, Cholera and Dirrhoea
Remedy it means that it never fails to
cure diarrhoea, dysentery or bowel
complaints. It is pleasant to take
and equally valuable for childrea and
adults, Sold by all Druggists.

Value of the Kindergarten
Work.
Recognizing the three fold
nature of the child, physically
mentally and spiritually; the
Kindergarten deals with allthree
that there be no undeveloped
nature. The perfect child had
this three-fold nature, no child
can be lacking in any one of
these and be a perfet child.
There can be no true musician
unless he has ail these developed.
We all know that the first im-
pression are lasting, and is a well
spring of action for good or evil.
We take the little children who
come under one influence, who
in their undeveloped state are
like the photographers negative,
sensible to impressions and is the
teachers privilege to expose that
negative for an impression of
goodness and truth.
All true teaching should lead
as near to God as possible, and
music taught on these lines is
especially capable of being used
as a factor in leading children to
appreciate the beautiful in nature
and the goodness of God. In
our first Kindergarten lesson we
learn that the first music was
when the morning stars sang to-
gether. We learn that the birds,
bees and, as one little girl ex-
pressed it, even the teakettle
singa and makes music. All
creatijn praises God and we can
praise him by having songs of
helpfulness singing in our hearts
all the time. )
We teach harmony as the
science of order. God has made
a garden of harmony with the
children as the melody and each
child a simple tone. Thus we
impress them with the importance
of filling their individual places
in the world; for if little tones
get out of time then the melody
is wrong and the harmony is
spoiled.
We base our discipline on the
thought that we teachers are
tending child flowers in God's
garden of harmony and they
need sunshine which is musical
atmosphere, rain the influence of
tone, warmth which is love for
and aid in unfolding, for true
education is unfolding, the
development of that which is
born within.
We cannot give artificial color
to a flower but we can so nourish
it that it will bloom in beauty and
fragrance; thus we endeavor to
recognize the childs indenity ai I.
cultivate what his individual
needs suggest. Little children
are developed mostly on the
physical plan, so we lead up to
the mental and spiritual through
this; especially in young children
thought grows by impulse.
We reach the spiritual nature
through pictures. All of these
pictures relate to the goodness of
God and divine harmony. Child-
ren love to handle things and
they enjoy having these pictures
in their hands; the impulse is to
take in the impressions through
the sense of touch. This is not
confined to children alone for
we all love to handle things
which really please. The child
does not exist who does not love
pretty, bright colors. See a
baby put out its hands for a
pretty rose, the pretty color has
attracted her and she wants to
further take in the impression
.hrough the sense of touch. So
these elements are combined in
having the seven primary colors
in birds, blocks, balls and beads
representing the different tones
of the scale.
We must evenly develop the
three natures of a child.
SPIRITUAL: Truthfulness,
Righteousness, Knowledge.
MENTAL: Understanding,

Woman's Beauty
Some women retain tlieir beauty to an advanced
age. But women, who regularly endure pain, age
rapidly, for suffering leaves its lasting marks on
| them.
Nearly all women suffer more or less with some
i form of female trouble. It should not be neglected.
!A.void the pain—treat yourself at home by taking
[Cardui, as thousands of other women have done.
Begin at once and give Cardui a fair trial.
CARDUI
It Will Help You
j*
Mrs. Katie Burlison, Goreville, 111., tried Cardui and writes:
"I sufTered with female troubles, and was eo sick I could not stand
on my feet. Finally I began to take Cardui, and soon began to
mend. Now I am able to do all my housework and am in much
better health than I was before." Try it.
AT ALL DRUG STORES
Perception, Intuition, Discrimin-
ation, Instinct. PHYSICAL:
Hearing, Seeing, Speech, Taste,
Smell. Hearing is the highest
and only physical sense of music.
Cultivate it by distinguishing the
tones we use. Instinct is the
lowest and we cultivate it by
following our instinct if it is
good music and by checking it
if it is bad. Discrimination is
used in the selection of our
pieced. If a person has (his mind
filled with jfood the bad will be
left out. Musical Intuition is a
childs natural endowment from
mediocre talant to genius. Per-
ception: Teach them to see what
music is and hew it is used by
mankind and the use of true
music.
Kindergarten music is not so
much the use of any particular
method as a spirit of teaching
adapted to the chiids nature. To
be successful in this line of work
two things are essential. First:
an intelligent gi-asp of the subject
to be taught. The underlying
lanes of rvthm, melody and har-
mony. Second: The other
essential is sympathy and fellow-
feeling with the child. The most
successful teacher is one who
can best put herself in the pupils
place and see h«w the thing looks
from that point of view. Having
lone that it is rot difficult to lead
the child into a larger, clearer
vision of truth.
