EPISCOPAL CHURCH PAPER
URGES RETURN 7 O CUSTOM
OF ANOINTING WITH OIL
Milwaukee, WIs., Oct. 19.—“The Liv
ing Church," a weekly Episcopal paper,
has formally declared war on Christian
Science and the iiia ot similar methods
of healing, and proposes to return to
the ancient custom of prayer with the
anointing ef oil, as the scriptural meth
od. "The Living Church" nays tho
ancient unction ceremony has never
teen formally discontinued or abolish
ed and that any rector Is at liberty to
take up the practice at once. The argu
ment In behalf of treatment In this
form by church authorization Is tho
well-known desire of many, who seek
a combined religious and medical
treatment.
Bishop C. K. Nelson, when seen by a
representative of The Georgian Friday
morning, said that the statements of
"The Living, Church" have no author
ity, outside of the fact that.lt is a
reputable Episcopal weekly. He sahl
It Is. true the unction ceremony has
never been formally abolished, yet It
has gone out of use. and that It would
require, the action of the general con
vention of the-Episcopal church to re
store the. ceremony. „ -
ART OF BEING AMIABLE \
* ‘■Hsu- :
By the MARQUIS DE CASTELLANE.
(Copyright, 1908, by Amefican-Journal-
Examiher.)
Hundreds of women; great ladles,
and lesser ones, there are Whose one
ambition Is .to be colled amiable. The
strojiff sex,’ and , rightly, too, admires
amiability In a woman more than the
most magnificent Jewels with which
she can adorii her person. Only these
ambitious ladles often fall shert of
reaching their Ideal, and make the mis
take of thinking that a jilUy giggle and
a foolish smirk are the essence of the
art of amiability, whereas, for a matter
of fact. It is only the supreme evidence
of a hollow mind.
Bec ause they shout with laughter on
greeting you, squeeze your hand and
make eyes ut ,you, they are persuaded
that they have cast an atmosphere of
Edenllke bliss about them. On thplr
own authority they hoist theifiselves
upon u pinnacle surmounting an Olynv
plan height to which they never really
can attain.
I think I can say without false
pride that In the universal race to
reach the goal of amiability In which
the women of all nations have from
time Immemorial participated, tht
French women used to come out easy
firsts. Times have changed now, how
ever. The reason of this Is that amia
bility, that Intangible quality so per
suasive and yet so elusive, has taken
flight before the encroaching power of
vulgarity which seems to have over
ridden our modern society.
You can’t be amiable In a hurry, and
nowadays everything Is done with a
rush. You can’t be amiable In a con
versation which Is'carried on In mono*
syllables over-a telephone wire, and
everybody now does most of their talk
Ing by means of thU horrid Instrument.
However, amiability’s bitterest enemy
is not that restless,spirit which drives
men and women at great speed hither
and thither all over the world, but the
passion for the game which now takes
up the attention of half humanity, I
rt fer to bridge. - -
Suppose you enter a modern salon,
whether It be In the House of thp most-
aristocratic lady In the land or the
most Insignificant wife of a petit bour
geois.
Whdt do you see? Not as formerly,
an assembly of people engaged In
cheerful conversation, or sitting. In lit
tle groups apart harmlessly flirting
without pose or pretention, In the pret
tiest manner Imaginable. No. What
you see Is a series *>f groups comprised
each of fodr individuals sitting arout.d
small tables. Upon the people's faces
Is a hypnotized expression, and me
chanically they seem to Juggle wp.'i
cards and counters. In the midst of an
Icy silence.
If you happen to raise your voice ever
so little, be it only to greet your hostess
on entering, you will be the mark for
angry expressions of ’’Hush!" which
will emanate simultaneously from all
corners of the room. The lady
whom you have come to present your
respects looks at you as If to say, "If
you don’t shut up I'll have you put
out."
Then of course you stand as If petvl
fled, with gaping mouth, aftd stare and
nod and do not dare to speak. This Is
what our modem women are pleased to
call the gentle art of being amiable.
They have done away with all effort to
please, all the pretty manners which
graced our ancestresses. Their salons
are like dim oratories \vheje one comes
to pray In silence; the difference Is only
in the deity which Is worshipped there
It would be Interesting to know what
Is thought by such shining lights of
wit and graciousness as the Madames
Goeffin, d’EpInay .or De Stael, who
shone in French society of former days.
If they can look down upon the social
gatherings.of modern times. I suppose
which such a sight of our vulgarity,
our silence and the total absence ot In
tellectual effort among us causes them,
by conversing with the saints and an
gels.
I really can not believe that when
one crosses the threshold of paradise
one will be greeted by the spectacle of
so many and such charming represen
tatives of human Intelligence as are
there now, grouped around* bridge ta-

BY PERCY WHITING,
Tlte clrcua la In town today—Bar
num & Bailey’s, you know—greatest
show on earth. Barnum nnd Bailey
are both dead, of course; been dead
a long tlqie; but the show goes right
on being the "greatest show on earth,"
just as it was back In the old days j
when -P. T, Barnum was furnishing the
hot air and James A. Bailey the-bralns.'
And ws, the sporting department,
were assigned to go, out, watch them j
put up the tents, enjoy a dinner as j
the guest of Dexter Fellows, chief en- !
lertalner of the press; drink some pink j
lemonade (provided our system was up
to It), nnd then come back and "tell
’em about It."
"Which same,” In the language of j
the poet, “we done.”
Ordlnnrily we should have been out
to see them unload. Ten years ago we
wouldn’t have - missed It for a farm.
And we aren't the only ones, for eight
or ten thousand boys, old and younc,
hung around the Forsyth street bridge
Friday morning and took It In; and
at the first of the season the United
States army had two men. a major
and a captain, detailed to go with the
show and get pointers about loading
and unloading trains, putting up tents
and taking them down ngaln.
A Regular Army.
But, anyway, we saw the tents go
ing up and that Is worth the price .of
admission to the main show. Appar
ently there were something over a mil
lion men at It, hut as Mr. Fellows gives
his assurance that the show only em
ploys 1,065 people, this must be an ex
aggeration.
They weren’t working the automatic
peg-driver, but through the conglom
eratlon of sounds could be heard the
plunk, plunk" of the big hammers.
At 11 o'clock the executive offices, the
animals' tent, the grub tent, the cook
ing tent aqd a couple of dozen others
were up and doing business. The six
enormous poles of the main tent were
up and ready, but It looked as though
el slv hnill'u’ tt'liplf flhPftrl rtf flip
hour late in starting. It we had had a
better place to unload I think that we
could have made It.”
That anything Is ever ready la the
marvel—with 87 cars, 690 horses, 12
acres of canvas, seats for 14,832 pco-
pie, 3,000 meals served dally, 20 tons
I of apparatus for one act, 216 animals
I In the menageries, - 24 elephants, these
nnd the ten thousand wonders of tha
greatest show on earth—or anywhere
I else.
I The travelling circus Is the great
'American amusement feature, the typi
cally American entertainment. Its com
ing marks an epoch In the life, of every
small boy and Its going leaves a gap
which only another circus can fill.

Everything fades, everything change,
even wit- •
There fit. one thing which, however,
does not Change with the ages, and that
Is boredom. Now, nothing In the .world
Is so tiresome as people who think
themselves, amiable In the modern
sense of the word. Buch women arc
mere pretentious snobs. Amiability has
departed this world. In our day It Is
relegated to the museums of antiqui
ties. „
Believe me. ladies. If you ever hope
to cultivate that most gentle art you
must make up your minds to converse
like in the old days, and refrain from,
converting your salons Into branch es
tablishments of gambling resorts.
If you persist In your present mule
attitude you may be considered by your
descendants as delightful mollusks, but
only upon condition that you are beau
tiful. But there Is one thing certain —
you will never be classed on a par with
those charmers who from tho days of
our Mother Eve to our own time have
beautified the world by their grace and
amiability.

better. It Is unfortunate for her; and TTTWT)

IF YOU EVER BET A
DINNER, BET THE BEST.'
THE NEW KIMBALL
He was young and enthusiastic and
had his own views of life—views with
which he found few to agree. More
over, he was a poet.
She was older by ten or fifteen years.
She had at first listened good-naturedly
to hts ravings, hod taken a kindly In
terest In the productions of blit pen,
and had eventually learned to love the
impulsive Idealist.
He came to see her frequently. 8he
was one of the very few to whom he
could pour nut his hopes and sorrow,
and the bond of sympathy between
them attracted him to her aide, so that
she became his confidant In all things.
He told her all his great schemes for
the reformation of society, for the
amelioration of the lot of the poor, and
for the better recognition of men of
letters. He was periodically fired with
some new Idea, and was always about
to do some great thing that would
make him known nmong his fellow
men. And she encouraged him In his
aspirations.
One day a picture In a city shop
caught his eye, and he stood for more
than an hour gazing at the exquisite
profile of nn intellectual face crowned
by a mass of golden-brown hair. The
great wide-open eyes held him In
thrall, and he v.ould have bought the
picture at once but for $he fact that he
had no money.
That night he wrote an ode to the
beautiful stranger, and all night long
he dreamed that he was walking
through a pretty old-world garden,
hand In hand with the owner of tho
wondrous eyes and hair. Next day ho
went to the shop again and got the
name of the pointer, one Paul Des-
rampa, of whom nothing was known
except that be lived In Paris.
In the evening he called upon his
friend and told her of his discovery,
describing In glowing terms the mar-,
velous beauty of the face In the pic
ture. He read her the lines he had
written, and her features twitched with
pain. Latterly she hail been -persuad
ing Herself that, much older as she
was, he was beginning to rare for her
—beginning as she had begun to care
for him years ago, little by little, until
the whole powers of her heart and soul
were .wrapped up In htin.
When he had gone, she gave way to
her grief and cried herself to sleep.
But she was up early In the morning
and wrote two notes which she dis
patched hastily by her maid.
He had worked far Into the night nn
a new etory, so he arose late. Hla
first visit was to the shop, where the
subject of his romance lay. As ho
reached the window, he stopped short
The picture had gone! He bad not
anticipated this, he had overlooked the
fact that picture dealers trade merely
for gain, and do not keep shops to sat
isfy the artistic crpvlngs of the multi
tude. Ho had imagined that he could
come here day after day and worship
his Idol. Suddenly a happy thought
struck him. Tho window might have
been rearranged and his darling relo-
gnted to a minor position Inside; these
traffickers In art are mere soulless
beings.
So he went in boldly and asked to sds
the picture, but the attendant did not
remember any such painting, nor did
the name of Paul Descamps sound
familiar to him. But he inadq Inquiries
and foqnd that the picture had been
sold that morning. The purchaser ha I
paid cash and had taken It away Im
mediately, leaving no address. Hi
made a point of asking the address of
the buyer, so that he might call and
get permission, perhaps, to see th.-
lovely face sometimes. Now he was
baffled completely.
He walked the streets all the rest of
the afternoon, thinking vainly that he
might meet the new owner taking home
his treasure, but not one person did he
see with anything resembling the frame
work of the lost .one. ’
He climbed up to his lodgings In
deep depression, and went to bed with
out even troubling to fight the lamp. In
hfs sleep he had visions df the picture,
and when he woke ha fancied he saw
It facing him, fyuf.b* closed his .eyes
again to ‘brqod ofer i.t» .disappoint
ment. ' '‘ r "If-’
When her did get up he Blurted as If
he had received an electric shock.
There In front of him wns the very
picture! He must still be dreaming.
It was Impossible that a miracle had
taken place! He rubbed his eyes
pulled up the blind. The sun ■ waa
streaming In at the open, window, .and
shone full on the golden-hrotyn hair
He lifted It up and laughed aloud;
then, ppet-llke, he kissed the lovely
Image. '•
But how came It there? He ques-.
tinned the landlady, who, however,
could only tell him It had been brought
the day before, while he was out, by a
man who left no message.
He went over to see fils old friend
the first thing. She expected him, and
was dressed with extra rare. She had
on a new dyers of an artistic,blue—a
blue that he liked, and-she, expected
him to compHmyht hey on It. But he
was full of the. present be hid re
ceived In so mysterious a manner, and
the pleaaure of seeing him so happy, al
most compensated for the loss of the
looked-for compliment.
She was about to give him a hint as
to the Identity of the unknown pur
chaser, when he unfolded a plan he hud
formed. He was going to Paris to
seek out Paul Desyamps and find the
original of the picture and would
search until he had found Ills Ideal;
then be would marry her, and they
would live a life such as no man and
woman had ever lived before.
■ Her fare blanched. She knew It wns
useless to argue with him about hla
folly, so she merely listened.
Three weeks later she received a let
ter dated from the Rue Gay Lus-
aastn, staling that he had found Paul
Desramps, but giving no further par
ticulars.
He had searched In all the museums
and art galleries, anil eventually got
Information which enabled him to dis
cover the palmer In a mean little
studio near the Sorbonne, a withered
little man with a kind face who did hla
utmost w assist his visitor In his
search. But It was fifteen years since
he painted the picture, lie remember
ed the girl, a handsome grlsette, who
sat for every young ar.tlst In the Quar
ter who essayed to portray the beauti
ful In woman.'
The poet nearly lost cdntrnl of him
self at this. ' He would have liked to
kill the little man for even suggest
ing such a thing. It waa a He, of
course. His darling never exhibited
her charms to mincing tricksters of
the brush. She was all love and beau
ty, a veritable fairy, and this old paint
er was Jealous because he had her por
trait.
By dint of great perseverance he got
to know that she left the district sev
eral yean before and went to Mont
martre, whence he traced her to the
Qua! des Orfevres. He hastened down
to the riverside with all speed. The
number given him was a small restau
rant with little red curtains on the win-
dows, the.kind of plnce where a dinner
—a prix fixe—can he obtained for a
couple of francs, wine Included.
At last he had found his goddess!
His heart almost stopped beating, but
he pushed open the door and went In.
At tho far end ot the room was a fig
ure, of which he could only see the
back; but It was crowned by clusters
of golden-brown hair which he could
not mistake. It was she!
The figure turned at his approach,
and lie was confronted by a stout, bold -
faced woman well over forty, with arms
akimbo and ileevea rolled up for work.
His brain reeled. There must be some
terrible mistake, In spite of the hair.
He asked her name. He was not de
ceived. But wJty did Monsieur In
quire?
He held nil women'ln respect, and
he could not he rude even to such as
she; so he turned and bolted. He ran
along the. quay with such swiftness
that he alarmed the gendarme doing
sentry-go outside the central pollen
station, and he did not stop till he
wns across the bridge and well away
from the little restaurant.
That night he packed his vailsa nnd
took tho mall train back to London,
reaching hla lodgings pale and haggard
just after dawn.
When he awoke from a long sleep he
found'a'Scented notfi lying on his tn-
We, n week-old. It was frojn her,
telling him that she was going away,
und giving her address In case ho
wanted her.
He felt annoyed. Of course he v ant
ed her. He wanted to tell her all his
troubles, and to r<celve the sympathy
she was always so ready to give. He
wpuld go to her and tell her all about
It.
She was staying at a big hydro in
the Midlands, and tvheh he arrived she
was sitting alone In the drawing room.
He paused by the door to admire her.
She wns really very charming, and al
ways dressed to perfection. And he
adored well-dressed women. -He mark
ed her pretty /uxuriant hair, her deli
cate features, hud' he saw with pride
that the dress she wore was one h«
had admired In a Bond street window
one afternoon when he was out walk
ing with her. A dainty shoe was Just
visible beneath the folds of her silk
