Innocence 18 lovely in the child, be- cause in harmony with its nature; but our path in life is not backward but onward, and virtue can never be the offspring of mere innocence. If we are to progress in the knowledge of good, we must also progress in the Every experience of evil brings its own temptation, and according to the degree in which the evil is recognized and the temptations resisted will be the value of the char- acter into which the individual will develop. Innocence may be beautitul, but can never be strong, while the whole es- sence of virtue lies in its strength to resist and power to endure. If the Innocence of childhood be replaced by the firm principles of integrity and bonor, the loss will be really a great gain. It is only where the knowledge of evil is unattended by appreciation of its nature, where temptations a ylelded to and not resisted, that we are induced to grieve over the depart- ure of that innocence which was so beautiful in earlier years. Protestantism in France. According to an article in the Revue the number of Protestants in France 18 decreasing. They now number 700, 000. The Lutherans, who numbered more than a quarter of a million in 1870, can now boast of a membership of only 80,000 in France. The Calvin- ists are the most numerous sect left, numbering over half a million. But they are losing ground. At the same time the political influence of the French Protestants is out of all pro- portion to their numbers. This the writer attributes to their superior _system of education, and above all to their great wealth. Their wealth has, however, tended to sap their exclusive- ness. They now pay less attention to their religion, and the result is, says the writer in the Revue, that Protes- tantism in France will in the near fu- ture be a thing of the past. This is & rather bold conclusion, and it would be interesting to know if this alleged decrease in the Huguenots is correct. —Westminster Gazette.

Did you ever notice that the popular girl, whom every fellow rushes after and likes to be seen with is not the first to catch the desirable, eligible husband?” “Stop your philosophizing and tell me what are you trying to insinuate.” “That Reggle is only amusing him- self in your soclety while another has captivated his heart's desire,” an-|* swered Edward. “There’s not the shadow of a doubt about it.” “You must be mistaken,” answered Hilda, hoping that he was. A lot of us fellows were discussing girls the other evening when Reggle became offended at the fiippant tone some of the fellows took,” replied Ed- ward earnestly. “He told of some girl whose pic- ture he carried in his watch—what she meant to him. We kidded him, but he declined to show the picture until he showed us-the girl some day. I felt pretty chéap because some of the fellows thought he meant you, but I explained dlflerenfly at the first op- portunity.” “That must be Shirley who he’s al- ‘ways quoting,” said Hilda. “Be sensible, Sis, don’t listen to his soft words. Give him the shake,” as- serted Hilda's brother. “Reggle,” said Hilda that night when he started to tell her how much sweeter than ever she lookeq “I'm weary of your profuse praise and laudations. It only inspires in me contempt for your insincerity and hypocritical attions. You doubtless shower compliments on every girl you meet, only varying them according to her size, the coloring of her hair, and eyes.” “But I am honest when I say thal your eyes are like the stars in the heavens above,” he contended. “Only bluer than the sky, and as the stars are sure to shine don’t ever hesitate or distrust my love for you, or that 1 fail to appreciate your many alluring For some caprice you pay little attention to anything I say. I even wrote to Shirley today.” “Shirley, who's Shirley?” interrupt- ed Hilda in a strained voice. “It practice makes perfection may- be she 1s responsible for your adept way in making ome think with.your cajoling and soft words that she is your ideal when the reality is an en- tirely different person.” “Your pretty ears are the only ones that hear those words,” persisted Reggle, ‘Who's Blurley"' repeated Hilda. “It's always Shirley, this -and _that. Possibly she will not be so delighted to learn that others have been the reciplent of some of the same sweet phrases that she is lcuustcmed to re- celve.” “The compliments yml pay your favorite sister-in-law are vastly differ- ent from those tributes you give the girl whom you hope to marry.” “Don’t think for a moment,” said Hilda, “that I am anxious for your so- clety if you contemplate marrying an- other girl. Neither do I care to be conspicuous by your devoting your time to me. The girl whose photo is in ‘your watch will appreciate your lover-like attitude vastly more.” “Will she?” said Reggle as he open- ed his watch. “It's about time. Be- hold her picture.” Curlously Hilda took #he watch, “Why, it’s my likeness,” she ejacu- lated. “Naturally,” hssented Reggle. “Your brother must have told you about the 8irl whose picture I carried.” Hilda nodded her head, “He insinuated something, but if I heeded his advice, dear, I mever would have realized how much we loved each other.” “I took it for granted that you knew Shirley was my elder brother's wife. “It was & great blow to my parents when my brother married her, as she was only a governess minus a for tune. They have become reconciled, however, and simply adore her. Na need to be jealous of her, for she’s nearly old enough to be your mother.” “Thank heavens for that,” sald Hil- da. “If I'd only known sooner.” “Bhe was my governess,” continued Reggle, “and s everlasting thankful to me for. writing to my brother about her beauty and loveliness, so that he was prepared to lose his heart.” Just then Edward sauntered in, and saw by his sister’s blushing counte- nance that he just arrived in time to save her the humiliation of receiving any more adulation from Reggle. - “I have a present for you,” cried his sister. “This isn’t my birthday,” he replied vehemently, taking a look and start- ing to read. “I want te present a brother-in:law to you, just the kind you Ilike, ‘my dear,” saild his sister Hilda with a twinkle in her eye. “Congratulations!” sald the amazed young man. “It certainly does help & lot,” sald his sister, “to nearly spoll a romance to have a brother listen to other fel: lows’ ren:;.:s at the alub.” The Best Gift.
