DEVOTIONAL READING: P.alm 4« _______ —| God Our Comfort Lesson for November 6. 1919 AS THE ENGLISH language keeps on changing, words do nd always keep on meaning what they once did. ‘'Comfort” is one of . these. When our Bible was translated into English in 1611. the trans lation most English speaking peopie use. the word -j •‘comfort” had a W bigger meaning I _ than mr st people B-' P■’ into it a- ■ Jfrjg days. Wc think of it as meaning •'/£*. is a bigger idea than MBE i' Ms that. God is . t pr , orrman merely a soothing God. We think f -Comfort” as meaning to make ( comfortable; but it is a stouter word than that. God d< es not always m: !:e his people comfortable. The word means to strengthen, to steel against f-.’-r and ddspair. to j ut backbone into people. • • • “Fear Not. O Worm!” AT THE TIME of the prophecies wc study this week, the Israel- i lies had been kicked around a good deal. They had felt the conqueror’s boots, they were discouraged, as all good people are when somehow God eems to be letting evil forces.) triumph. Their little world had ; Fpl t wide apart, their little nation , had been blown to the winds. To those propie. torn by terrors and bowed down by wrcicliednese, people who were in serious danger of developing a once-for-all "inferiority complex.” people who were about to lose all their backbone, the great prophet brings his mes- 1 sages: “Comfort ye my people, saith your God.” The whole idea is in this one i sentence <ls. 41:1-1*: "Fear not. O worm Jacob! ... I am your helper, saith the Lord.” Cod d >es not indulge his people in f»< lish pride. Be: ide the Alni they are worms, insects.! Nevertheless, worm though he may* be. the man who trusts in God will rot be afraid. He will not trust in 1 hU o 1 powers, he will trust in ! luck. v. II trust in God. A n by itself is nothing; but with > n his side, the weakest ( of n : -n say with Paul. “If God I -for us. who can be against us?” I God’s men do not get their cour- ! ; u v - up by flexing their muscles or j ad . ir.: g themselves. They grow in c< ar ■as they grow in the knowledge of God. • 00 Goodness And Power ANY ONE who saw “Edward. My ?-n” will remember the tragedy of that fan .ly. A t->y's charac-' 1 r went slowly to pieces, because hi« Ether •.'.>» determined that r o.hirg should be too good for him. To gain his purpose the father ran r r i-. hod over everyone who f ,-j tn his way. and eventually i nned the lives of all around him, j-i- Li ling his son's and his own. The mother, cn the other hand, ci Id : ce. as the father could net. what his indulgence was doing to j the I making him a weakling and a rat But she was too weak to stand up against her husband. ; and i -r life too was ruined. That j noiy is a kind of parable. Th' prophet reveals a Cog r.lio is both powerful and good; hut sttppese God were only go<.d bit not powerful, or only pcwi-rtfl but not goed? Then the wvrld ootid be in a mess, as that boy Edward was in * mess. But there th’ee are all in the same C>d A God who is power only, might do as Edward's father did. destroy his children without even intending to do so. A God who Is goodness only might want to do right by his world *et not be able to do so. like Edward's mother A God who knew v i-r t was right but neither w reted nor was able to do much ebout it, would not be a ' God al all. • • • Gud Is Not V.’ciry SUPPOSE GGD were indeed powerful. go d and wise, and yet grew tired from time to time” Suppose ail God's good qualities came and went, unpredtetably, like the wind on a spring day? No; Gnd h the Maker and Keeper of Promises, the Covenant God He docs not grew faint er weary; that is our toebor of comfort. t The earth changes, and men with it; but the Word of the Lord abides forever. His “convenant ot peace” docs not waver. We do not need to lean gingerly on the A'mighty. He will bear all our weight.

Williams Cleaning Silverware Do you enjoy using your silverware but not use It very often because it is so hard to keep dean’ I'sing silver often and giving it a little spe» ini care will keeji it In the best condition. It should not be med as utility spoons and ] forks at the range. The homemaker should thormghly wash all silverware as soon as possible after using it. The waler should be hot with thick suds and each piece of silver washed Individually with a soft doth. The silver then should be rinsed in ho’, dear water and carefully dried with a soft towel while still warm Rubber, salt. eggs, gases and «inoke cause tarnish on sliver If It is used often and thoroughly washed. It does not have ns much chance to tarnish and the homemaker may not need to clean it more often than once a month or iust for special occasions. Wheft it Is necessary, she should use a rood grade rtf silver polish. If She does not have one, the dealer from whom she purchased the silver mav reromm nd one When polishing the silver the homemaker should rub ••ach piece lengthwise, and not crosswise or with a circular motion After cleaning, the silver should be washed in hot soap suds, rinsed in dear, hot water anti carefully dri -d with n soft towel. Silver should he stored in drawers or chests lin <1 with a tarnish preventive fabric, and should b< as air tight as possible. For co venient arrangement, these drawers should have built-in racks or dividers. I Color Scheme I What colors would give a pleasing effect in my Bring room’ Selecting that color scheme Is not as dlffh tilt ss some homemakers might think. The color which has lieen sele'-t-1 <-d to he used throughout the house should be rep-nted. At the present time, ranks number □ne as this color. liecause ft Is a neutral color and Is easy to combine wi’h others. The safest way for a homemaker to build a cglor scheme for a certain roonfe Is to plan from a mul’l-colored drapery fabric, wallpaper, a picture, rug <»r an upholstery material. Sh* 'ometimes has one of these as a starting point, perhaps, a figured rug. with which she wants other colors to harmonize The homemaker rhould look at the rug to tee the different colors in It and repeat them In the draperies, upholsteries and wall treatment. If she were buying new draperies to use with a p'ain rug and plain wall which she already has. she might select a fabric In sever•l colors. The fabric should have i»» •» the colors which are on the wall and floor If she needs and wants a third color, th" figured I multi-colored drapery will suggest ! 11. One of these three colors should be dominant, using ft manv times in varying hues, values and intensities.

The brightness can be in flowers In either drapery fabric, slip covers, vase or one upholstered chair. If a room has many windows and appears rather bright, the homemaker can u e m dium to dark colors on her walls and floor, if the room is dark, with perhaps only one window, the light colors arc better. Home colors are con sidered advancing, like red. orange ami yellow. The colors which seem farthest away are greens,' blu -.♦ and lavenders. By taking advantages of this, the homemaker can make large rooms seem smaller and more friendly, and small rooms larger and more spacious, and narrow ones look wider. A change of color involves design It Is well forth - homcmakr to rem inlier that this room may have one area with bold fig ures such as large roses, one small .ill-orer pattern one stripe or p.ald. and the rest plain colors.
