Summer Comforts

The season has come when but few people can be
burdened with heavy bed coverings. Something
light is wanted, but it must also have warmth, for
there are chilly nights even in summer.

And they're very moderate in cost, besides being hy
gienic, light, healthful and beautiful.
White Wool Filled Comforts
Are Light as a Feather
The filling is pure white Australian lamb's wool,
carded in a single sheet to fit the covering, which is
of the highest grade of silkoliue in new aud elegaut
designs. These comforts represent a tweutieth cen
tury idea that has come to stay, and their cost is
moderate.
But the, Swel lest of the

weight aud pretty materials are used for the cover

Sumner Avenue Church.
Since tho retirement of Rev. Frank
J. Milman, as supply pastor of the
Sumner Avenue Presbyterian church,
and the death of Prof. Plumley, who
suceeded him, the Hock of tho Sumner
Avenue Presbyterian church have been
without a pastor. The church Is un
der the supervision of the Lacka
wanna Presbytery, with Rev. J. P.
Moffat, D. D acting as modera
tor. It Is understood that the church
people have the refusal of a lot In
West Park, and that the present build
ing Is for sale. It was expected that
the church building could bo removed
from its present site to West Park,
but It was found that the building was
wider than tho street. If It Is not dis
posed of. there is a possibility of tho
structure being taken down and re
built on the proposed new location.
The matter is being held under adJ
vlsement by the Presbytery, and It Is
not known just now what will bo
done in the matter.
New First Baptist Church.
The finishing touches on the now
First Baptist church, on South Main
avenue, are. now being put on by a
large force of workmen under the di
rection ot the building committee. It
la expected that the work ivlll be fin
ished In a few weeks, when tho build
ing wilt ho dedicated.
Contractor Fletcher, vho began tho
building, threw up the ccntract some
ttmo ago, mid It devolved upon the
church people to have tho work fin
ished. The structure will bo finished
as originally planned, and will be one
of tho neatest, prettiest atul most sub
stantial church buildings In the city
when finished.

ed, "America," Rev. Dr. Pierce, of
tho Pcnn Avenue Baptist church, dis
missed tho mooting with benediction.
The stono Is of Indiana limestone,
two-foot square, bearing on ono ex
posed face tho Young Men's Christian
association emblem and on tho other
tho date "1901."
Tho association emblem Is very ar
tistically carved on tho stono nnd ns

an Interpretation of Its symbols wilt
not bo amiss. The outer circle signi
fies unity nnd tho triangle stands for
the three-sided training aimed at, tho

Bible, on which Is inscribed "John
xvll: 21," which verse reads, "That

world may know I have sent Thee."
The new building covem practically
all of tho 90x200 site of the old Blair
homestead, corner ot AA'ashlngton ave
nue and Mulberry street, Its larger
dimension facing Mulberry street. As
will bo seen by tho accompanying illus

and Its fiat roof is to bo fitted up

The lrmtorlal nf r-nnstriintlnn Ik wtnno

yet dignified in treatment and suggest
ive In its predominant features of the
uses to which It is to bo put. The
principal ornamentation is the spacious
and artistic entrance on the Mulberry
street side and live rows of bay win
dows extending along the four upper
stories.
Tho Interior arrangement of the
buldlng Is most carefully and consist
ently planned and represents what Is
claimed to be the closest amiroach thus
j far obtained to absolute perfection In
tho construction of a Young Men's
Christian association building.
The Isolation of the noisy apartments,
such as the gymnasium, bowling alleys
nnd manual training rooms, from the
reading room, auditorium and other

for furnishing light, heat and power.

rooms. On tho Washington avenue
side at the street level will be three
Sioro rooms, tho corner one to be used
as a drug store, tho center one as a
restaurant, and the other as a barber
shop. All three are already leased.
The whole of tho gymnasium build

floor will bo used for tho gymnasium,
which will bo 51x75 feet, and free from
posts. Tho top lloor will have a
manual training and other class rooms,
reached from the main building.
Tho first floor of the main building
will contain an attractive outer loggia
of ample dimensions, so nrranged as
to bo convenient to both tho audi
torium and the association rotunda.
The rotunda wll bo a beautiful fea
ture of tho building and will contain
the administration offices. A broad
staircase loads to tho second lloor,
whore will be tho public rending room,
game room and members' coat room,
The auditorium Is above tho stairs
on tho Washington avenuo side, and
Its floor s seven feet abovo tho main
entrance lobby, it will seat 910.
