ADDRESS ON LABOR'S DEMANDS
BY REV. MR. DE QRUOHY.

Mention nnd Minor News Notes.
Hev. Thomas dp Cinch, ji.istor of
tho Jnckon Street Baptist chinch, took
up the cause (tf the workman at lift
evening's service and spoke upon the
subject of "Labor's Demands." Owing
to tho int leniency of the weather u
small audience was In attendance, but
the address was very lntuiestlng. The
speaker. In part, said:
"Many will doubt tins propriety of
bringing this subject Into 111" pulpit,
but wheie does the limit of Christian
ity end'' flu 1st tame Into the world
to educate, eultivnte and s.ie men. and
he was the poor man's friend. He said.
Come unto Me nil ye that labor and
arc heavy laden and I will give ou
rist
"Chi 1st is the answei to nil the per
plexities and Ills of humanity. Tho
ilch are getting richer and the poor
poorer In Anitiiiu Cod fosteied tho
liberty and equality of every man and
only through agitation has anything
been pained by Him. Let the winking
innn agitate for lights. Capita! and
labor are not so lav invoiced as in
lormer e.us. The Intelligence ot
America is enshrined In the working
man. "The caue of all the tlollble Is tho
inhuman treatment of wealth. Men
liave souls lrom Ood. and It Is about
time the corporations knew it and rec
ognized their needs. The woiklngman
lias bettered his condition tluough
strife and strikes. He had to do It or
starve. All the vvtongs ot the working
men are not .vet redu"-ed, and they
ought to receive a fair daj's wages foi
his labors that he may bilng up hl
children and educate them n well as
the rich.
"There is no state in the Union as
prolillc as the state of Pennsylvania for
the encouragement of ti lists They
seem to spiing up like mushrooms, and
unless laboi stands shoulder to should
er they will not be successful against
this mighty agency that is usinping
their employment. Capital Is like the
southern states, it has to be whipped
into line, and intelligence must be
biought to bear to bring capital and
labor together Fnles" this Is done theie
will be no muic in the Industrial
world, but there, must also be lovo and
sympathy combined.
"No man ought to work more than
eight hours a day. Ills time should
be so divided that he can spend It
equally at hume. In the shop and In
rest. There Is a tide of prospeilty com
ing and the laboring man ought to feel
It as well as the capitalists, and 1 be
lieve tho worklngmen of Sei anion are
.Instilled In their demands for nn eight
hour day and Increased wages.
"There are wrongs In the Industrial
win Id that must not bo made public,
but theie Is one thing I want to refer
to In conclusion, and that Is ipgardlng
many dims In this city who are pay
ing starvation wages to their female
employes, and thus driving them Into
temptation which cannot named
from the pulpit. They ate compelled
to dies.s beyond their means, nnd really
ought to be In school ond be educated
for the positions in life which will lit
them to become the wives of Atnciican
wotknien."

What suffering frequently results
from a mother's ignorance; or moro
frequently from a. mother's neglect to
properly lnsttuct her daughter 1
'1'radlt ion says "womnn must suffer,"
nnd young women nro ho taught.
Thcro is a little truth and a great deal
of exaggeration in this. If a young
woman suffeis beverely sho needs
treatment and her mother should see.
that sho gets It.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examina
tion; but no mother need hesitate to
vvrlto freely about her daughter or
' herself to Mrs. Pinkharn and secure
the most cluciont advice, without
chnrgo. Mrs. l'inlcliam's address is
Lvnn. Mnss.
The following letter from Miss MxniK
P. Johnson, Centralia, l'a , shows vv hat
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
l'inkham helped her ;
"My health beenmo so poor that I
had to leave school. I was tired all tho
time, nnd had dreadful pains in my
side and back. I was also troubled
with irregularity of menses. I was
very weak, and lost so much flesh that
my friends became alarmed. My
mother, vv ho is a firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thought per
haps they mjght benefit tne, and wrote
you for advice, i follow cd the advice
you gave, and used Lydla E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
vou directed, and am now as well as I
ever was. I have gained flesh and have
a good color. I am completely cured of
Irregularity."

Extreme novelties from the most pet feet de
signers in Paris and London will ba shown, but our
main effort has been directed to making a worthy
and elaborate display of modified styles embodying
all the essentials which fashion demands, but illum
inating these wild fancies which look well enough
in fashion plates, but are impracticable, because
hardly one lady in one hundred could wear them.
Common sense and the proverbial good taste of
American women demaud styles that are becoming
to them as individuals; thus, while Paris may set the
pace and suggest the pattern or design, its decrees
are no longer arbitrary. In a word, we accept the
good, reject the extremes and create new patterns
ot our own.
The Display on
Wednesday and Thursday
Will include Trimmed Millinery of every discrip
tion. Every thing in flats, shapes and trimmings
that will be worn, Veilings, Ribbons, Flowers,
