A Woman Who Teaches the Poor How to Cook.

MISS WINTFRED GIBBS.

One of the most useful persons in the great city of New York is Miss Winifred Gibbs, expert dietarian. Miss Gibbs shows women of the working class how they may expend their meager incomes to the best advantage in the purchase of food. Miss Gibbs on request supplies a family with suggestions as to what food is most suited for their needs and how it should be cooked in order to retain its nourishment. Many a poor housewife struggling with the problem of how to reconcile her income with the hard facts of the high cost of living has reason to bless Miss Gibbs. Many a workingman owes his better health and increased efficiency to the well cooked and sustaining food which through her instructions his wife Is enabled to provide out of his slender Income. Children in the public schools are enabled to do better work because their mothers each morning can thus provide them with a good breakfast. This adding to the well being and comfort of many people and indirectly energizing the work of the city is no mean achievement for one little woman. Miss Gibbs does her work under the auspices of the New York Society For the Improvement of the Condition of the Poor. Every day she goes among the homes of the tenements, where she Is known only as the visiting cook. Those who know bow eagerly most women “swap” recipes will not be surprised to learn that almost Invariably her appearance in the tenements is hailed with pleasure. For several years she has been doing her work, and gradually the report of it, spreading to other communities. Is leading to the establishment of similar dietary work for the poor.

LOVELY LINGERIE JACKETS.

Bilk and Lace Are Used For the Most Fetching Models. Very pretty are the season’s short dressing jackets and negligees. The soft Dresden silks with lace and ribbons make a combination that is very charming, as shown in the picture. This lace is Valenciennes, and the silk Is in pastel shades of pink and blue. A ribbon band about the bust gives the upper part of the jacket a yoke effect Narrow plaits on the sleeves and on the bodice add to its omateness. The sleeves are of the flowing type, profusely garnished with lace. Among the most admirable rest gowns are some kimonos variously

fashioned of Japanese crape, shaded satin and a curious sort of gauze. What could be more charming than a kimono of delicate wistaria mauve gauze, hand embroidered with trails of wistaria blossom? The shaded crape negligees are lovely. There is one shading from lemon yellow at the shoulders to a burnt umber at the padded hem, the gradations being so skillfully blendjed; they seem to form one with the jricb embroideries, while am other ascends from a deep damask to 'a soft blnsh rose pink and is worked with a hanging design of wistaria In tone and great open roses.

OLD TESTAMENT TIMES BROOKLYN TABERNACLE BIBIE STUDIES

“PRIDE GOETH BEFORE DESTRUCTION” II Chronicle* 26:8-21—May 7 "Pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall.''— proverbs J6:18. H GREAT and prosperous king in Jerusalem was Uzziah. lie made a good begiunlng, was reverential toward God and put his '•apltal and the remainder of his Klugdom Into a good condition for defense against enemies. When thinking of the wars of Israel we are to remember that this nation for a time represented God's rule in the earth In a sense that no other nation ever did. j either before or after them. Israel’s kings were anointed by Dij vine commission and authority, as ! were no other kings, and they were said to “sit upon the Throne of the Kingdom of the Lord," as no other kings before or since have held dominion. Theirs was not, however, the Kingdom of God for which we pray, “Thy Kingdom come; thy will be done on earth,” but merely a preparatory arrangement with the typical Israelites. Ha Shall Reign For a Thousand Years God’s Kingdom will really come to earth after Messiah shall establish it.

For a thousand years He shall reign to uplift the humble and to bless all who seek righteousness and to punish and correct all others and finally to destroy the incorrigible in the Second Death. It was. therefore, quite in line with the arrangements of

that time that the kings of Israel and Judah should fortify and strengthen! themselves and defend the land which the Almighty had specially given to their nation. The truthfulness of our text was illustrated in King Uzziah when his fame had spread abroad and he began to feel his greatness. Pride came in; he forgot that he was merely the Lord’s representative in the kingdom. Having accomplished great things from a political and military standpoint, Uzziah essayed to a religious distinction. He evidently felt that God was proud of him and would be very pleased to have him enter the temple after the manner of the priests and offer incense at the Golden Altar. He knew of the rules governing the temple and its service, but considered himself above them. He would go direct to God and not recognize the priest. There Is but the One Way of Approach to God Many successful people fall into the same error of supposing that their success in business or in politics, their brilliancy of mind, or their polish of education are the only requisites in the sight of Jehovah. They feel that if they go to Church and acknowledge God, God should be very proud to have them and. of course, should give them the first place in everything. This is a mistake. The great King Eternal, “the Lofty One that inhabited Eternity.” has rules and regulations governing all attempts to approach Him. There is the one way of approach and no other. King Uzziah knew of the Divine arrangement, that his prayers as incense could be offered to the Almighty on the “Golden Altar” only by the priest, so

Humility before honor.

ence in prayer, otherwise than as provided in the Divine arrangement, as King Uzziab was smitten with leprosy for his presumption and pride. A Lesson of Humility “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needetb not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth ” (2 Tim. 2:15.) The lesson seems to be one of humility, both for the Church and the world. Some are born humble-minded and others self-conceited. Humility is Important, not only on its own account, but also because the other graces of the Holy Spirit cannot be cultivated without it The Apostle begins the list of these spiritual graces with meekness. How could one be patient and submissive in the trials and difficulties of life if not meek? How could one be kind toward opponents and in all things if he were not meek ? How could on* be patient toward all if he were not meek? How could one be Godlike without meekness? How could one be loving in the Scriptural sense without meekness? Along these lines all who will be of the Church will be tested. Meekness and humility must be cultivated and must abound in the heart In order to enable the cultivation of the othei fruits of the Spirit. ~

Father Penguin, Who Li vos In London** Zoo.

Not long ago,, a pair of penguins at the London zoo became the parents of a baby penguin. Penguins are seldom seen in captivity, so the advent of the baby was a matter of great interest to naturalists and the public generally. The penguin’s home is in be southern hemisphere, ami they lire amid the ice. The wings have mfly rudimentary quills and are used as paddles. The young are bom covered with down, but are very helpless and require to be teuded for a long period in the nest. The food of pragfuus consists exclusively of fish, which the birds capture beneath the surface by their agility in swimming and diving, when their paddle-like wings serve them to good purpose. So thoroughly at home are they in the water that they at first glance are often mistakes for dolphins or porpoises. Sequels to "Mother Goose." A rhyming game with plenty of chances for fun in it is here described. Before your guests arrive take as many sheets of paper as there are to be guests. At the top of each sheet write the last stanza of a nursery rhyme, a different one on each paper—for example: When she got there The cupboard was bare. And so the poor dog had none. You will probably need a copy of "Mother Goose” to refer to. When the guests have arrived a pencil and one of the papers with a verse at the top are given to each, and they are told that the point of the game is to write a sequel to the notary thyme each will find on his paper, the time allotted being half an hour. When time is up the papers are collected and the

verses read aloud. A prize for the hast rhyme may be given by a committee on awards, choeen from among the players. Here is an example: The dog was distressed. Had a pain In hla cheat Because of his hunger and thirst He howled out his woes. Then turned up hi* toe*. Disappointment his poor heart had buret. Remarkable Fish. , The curiously named trigger fish are plentiful in Japanese waters. They are of the balistes genus, and their popular name is derived from the trig-ger-like peculiarity of the second spine of the dorsal fin. When the fin is erected the first ray. ©r spine, which is very thick and strong, maintains its elevated position so firmly that it cannot be pressed down by any degree of force; but if the second spine Is pressed the first immediately falls down with a spring, like the hammer of a gunlock when the trigger is pulled. These fish are marked in a striking manner, some of them being very richly colored—ashen gray, blue and gold. A Boy's Queer Tumble. Lloyd Skinner climbed up the stone fhce of the dam at Electric lake, in New Jersey, and when he had reached the top he fell down to the bottom. This la a bad habit that some boys can never break themselves of. Lloyd did more than fall. As he passed a Jugged rock his coat caught, and it was taken off his back as neatly as if somebody had tried to hold him op by the ends of the sleeves. By the time he reached the end of his fall he had lost a shoe as well. In return for these losses he received a large black and bine bruise on bis back, but otherwise his thirty foot tumble did not do him much harm. A Water Trick. Fold your napkin into the form of a cravat and request some one of the company to fill up your glass with water and place it on your napkin; cover your glass with a hollow plate; cover the plate with the two ends of the napkin In such a fashion that the glass will be tightly pressed against the plate, and turn the whole upside down. Tt is now easy to drink the liquid, which comes down gently into the plate, and brace you can readily wager to drink a glass of water without touching your glass with your bands or mouth. - •+■ 7 Versatile.
