A Chicago minister hit upon a plan
to c.icourage hous-.ev. ives and young
mothers to come to the Sunday morn
ing service at his church. He estab
V.t ;.ut a creche or day nursery in a:i
iiujoii.i;:;; building where he installed
a corps of nurses under the charge
of a competent matron.
Mothers of babies and young child
ren are now Invited to bring the little
reople along and check them free of
charge in the creche, while they at
tend church next door. Their minds
can thus be free from worry in the
thought that their children are near
and are being well cared for.
The man who objects to foreign
missions and thinks that nothing ia
being done to spread the Gospel at
Lome will be surprised to know that
a great organization Is at work es
tablishing churches and Sunday

One feature of the work ot the Sal

to encourage self respect and self
help among the unfortunates whom it
assists. The old clothes gathered

In most of the large cities wagons
are sent around to collect old pap
ers and rags for the Industrial homos.
The man in charge of this work in
one city declares that if everybody
would save his papers and rags and
give them to the Army collector, the
f inipie task of preparing this rubbish
to fillip to the mills would furnish
occupation for practically all the
homeless vagrants In the city.

The Epworth League derived its
name from the Epworth rectory in
England, where John Wesley was
liorn and raised. In politics the Con
crcgationalists look upon the famous
Ordinance of 1878 as their own. Its
passage was said to be due chiefly to
the efforts of one Manasseh Cutler, a
Congregational minister, it prohibit
ed slavery In the Northwest Territory
now Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan
and Wisconsin, and abolished the
law of primogeniture, which made the
eldest son the only belr to his fath

A notable fact about religious con

applications, accompanied by remit

the detriment of the composer's hair,

The Crown of Woman

Tho crown of womanhood Is mother

wears thn crown or anticipates this cor
onation, when Micro Is a lack of womanly
slreimtli to bear the burdens of matei'iin'l
dignity iiml duty. And how few women
como to this critical time with adeiiuiite
pl.rcnutli. The reason why so many wom
en sink nailer tlie strain of motherhood Is
bivaiiie they nre iinnreparod. Is prepar
ation then required tor motherhood? asks
tho yoiiiiif woman. And every experi
enced mother answers "Yes." "I mi
hesitatingly advise expectant mothers to

writes Mrs. Stephens, ''ho reason for
this aiivlno Is that Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Proscription Is t.ho best preparative fur
t.lm maternal function. i'n matter how
healthy and strong a woman mav bo,
sho cannot use "Favorlto Proscription"
its a preparative for maternity without,

tho women who are not strong who best
appreciate the reat brnelits received

Garman and Lenahan in Scrap.
The announcement of John M.
Garman, Esq. as a Bryan candidate
to the Democratic National Con
vention has already resulted in
strong opposition by the Lenahan
faction anri has practically re-opened
the old fight of these two fac
tions in Luzerne county politics.
While Congressman Lenahan is not
an avowed candidate for the honor
of national delegate he is unaltera
bly opposed to t he honor going to
his old time political antagonist and
as a consequence the opposing forc
es are being lined up all over the
county. A conference of promi
nent politicians representing the
Lenahan faction is said to have
been held at Wilkes-Barre recently
when ex-District Attorney Peter
O' Boyle, Pittston, and H. VV. Ja
cobs, of Hazleton, were agreed
upon.
It is said that as a running mate
with himself Mr. Garman has de
cided upon P. M. McAniff, who
was a candidate tor District Attor
ney three years ago.
Garman is an open and avowed
Bryanite and Lenahan and his fol
lowers are in favor of any one but
the Nebraskan statesman.
It has bten suggested by men
prominent in the affairs of the Dem
ocratic party of that county that to
avoid a repetition of the fight be
tween these two unrelenting politi
cal warriors, which practically dis
rupted the organization, that both
be elected as national delegates.
Such a movement would, it is be
lieved, avoid much bitter feeling
and in no wise reflect on their stand
in the councils of their party.

After the feathers have been beat

kind of feathers are put in the blow
er separately The blower Is tho
most tlnipic nnd yet Hie most ov
erfill machine that Is used in the lea
ther business;. The macnlne Is b :lll
with a large funnel-shaped moiiti. on
top, nnd always Is placed at one uiu
of a largo room.
Tho feathers are placed In the fun
nel, through which they fall down In
to the centre of the machine. Thn
cold air blowing from the fan deod
orizes them, nnd they leave the ma
chine In a steady stream, flying ail
over the room. The worker finds
himself in what looks use a minia
ture storm, for the feathers fly around
as high as the ceiling. An onlookpr
well might wonder where the sorting
conies in of the maze of feathers.
It is here that the wonderful part
of the machine lle8, for the air pres
sure is so arranged that the heaviest
feathers which are also the cheapest,
will fall precisely in a bin about five
feet away from the blower. The next
heaviest will fall in a bin fifteen feet
away from the machine, and the rest
of the seven different grades of fea
thers will fall accurately in bins that
have been provided for them. The
down, which Is the most expensive,
flies around in the air the longest, but
when it comes down It fans in a bin
that is placed over 75 feet away from
the blower. Thus the seven diff-,
erent grades of feathers have been
sorted, each kind in a bin and with
out having been touched since leav
ing ihe blower.
The drum and blower man. after
putting In five years at tins kind or
work and also learning the different
grades of feathers takes anothe fep
upward In the business aud becomes
an assistant to the mixer. His work
consists uf weighing .feathers and
learning the different combinations
that are used in stuffing pillows. In a
few years he probably will know
how to mix some of the combina
tions but usually It takes five years
of experience before an assistant can
become a mixer.
The combination used In the cheap
est pillows is hen and turkey feath
ers. Duck and turkey combination
is used in a little better grade of pil
lows and the best combination of all
is duck and goose feathers. The
most expensive filling is made of
downy feather from geese. These
combinations have different prices,
nnd the mixer must know these prices
und, when he can, experiment with
the various kinds of feathers to try
and get a cheaper combination that
will last as long as the dearer kind.

That street is dark. You can haraly

or women. The air Is heavy with
odors of fish, or decaying vegetables;
underfoot the pavement Is glue
wkh dead tnings; your boots crunch
on snail shells. At No. 5 there Is a
low n rch way; It leads to the Cour
du Iluaumo. a cast court, surrounded
by a gallery set on pillars of wood.
Five centuries ago It was a sumptu
ous palace, this moldy building; then
a "court of Miracles." This night
it is filled with empty hand carts,
with bidders, baskkets, the refuse of
ti e ii;ari;e.s. Only against one wail

Many ultra-.soun.l slcct crs, alter
lining the common, continuous

found that the alarm awakens them
momentarily only, and they again
lapse into slumber, the alarm hav
