I desired very much to get some dress buttons and the assortment was small in my town, but the lady who w*»s doing the work for me said: “Just send a scrap to Mr. Blank’s store and lie will have all you want made and it will only cost you 15 cents per dozen." And the buttons are just as nice as you could ask, and, of course, , will match beautifully when they are con trived from the same goods. I have been more or less acquainted with but ton molds ever since I can remember, and I have bought buttons by the dozen arid by the gross, but this new invetnion where you "send a scrap" and 15 cents and are returned a dozen lovely made buttons, certairily “takes the cake," to adopt a little slang. I do think* every young wdman should be taught to make her own dresses, plain ones at least, and I do not understand why she cannot adven ture with “tailor made" after she is carefully instructed and can get fancy buttons so easily prepared for adorn ment. I never shall be prouder in my whole life than I was at twelve years of age, and I could make myself a gingham dress that my dear mother kindly praised me for doing so nicely. I took a long step forward ,and I have made hundreds since that time, I suppose, big and little. I took on that time a feeling of independence that has lasted m e for. nearly three-quarters of a cen tury. OUR UNPRAISED BLESSINGS. 1 have been reading about Chaldea in the Holy Land, and historians tell us it was a stoneless country. They imported stone at immense cost and labor. They used clay to make tablets, and worked in clay as the Egyptians worked in stone, for portrait, sculpture and other monumental sculpture. They learned to bake this clay successfully and also learned to enamel. Their" chief buildings were covered with enameled bricks. The Assyrians borrowed their arts and sciences from the ancient Chal deans. As I read of this stoneless land and remembered 'the bountifulness of our stone supply. I wondered if we ev.er thought of what we could ever do in this heaven-blessed America, without any of our building stone. There are numberless places where nothing .but stone-heavy masonry would answer. Yet we have never expressed any especial gratitude for our bountiful supply of this great factor in massive architec ture and commercial progress. When we can and do revel, in an abundant supply of fresh, clean, pure water, we do not stop to pity the peo ple who must count the barrels and tax time and strength to get enough to drink and to keep stock alive. With wa ter in abundance we have one of the chief blessings of human comfort, and disease-prevention. How many of us ever stop, when we hold a glass of fresh, sparkling water, to thank the Great Father who con trived this wonderful agent for our pleasure and profit? It is always a marvel and*a mystery this life-giving agent, this every-dav plentiful water that we use in some way every waking hour of our lives, and yet we would quickly die if we could not slake our thirst. tti the Corcoran Art gallery, in Wash ington is a notable oil painting called "The Drouth in Egypt." To my mind it had most fascinating interest. The groups that were starving for water had a hopeless agony stamped on every face, from the dead babe to- the old men and women who surely faced a coming death. Think what would hap pen to us if the springs and fountains went dry! Shall we not hereafter make a business of thanking God, as the chickens do, when they take a drink of water? OUR PERNICIOUS NAVAL SYSTEM. Have 3 r oti read Congressmai Trib ble's expose of our way of conducting our naval affairs and of the floods of money that are being appropriated to, keep on in this same old bungling and extravagant way? It is simply a monstrosity! Mr. Tribble said-on the floor of the house: “In 1896 when we went into conflict with the Spanish government we appropriated eight millions of dol lars for the pay of officers and men. At the present time (with no war) we have appropriated thirty-nine millions of dol lars for the pay of officers and men. We appropriate nearly as much today, as we did for all the naval expenses, in cluding the building of six new battle ships in the year 1899. “Gentlemen you will be surprised to know wo have spent ten millions on Pearl island, and the gentlemen from Texas says he does not know where Pearl Island is. "Now the Democrats have come in, we are asked to appropriate twelve mil lions more, for various things on that island. There is a hundred thousand dol lars for a water front. $30,000 for an other proposition, and $65,000 for anoth er and $24,000 for officers’ homes. We had already spent $63,000 for officers’ homes over there, $117,00 for officers, homes on that distant island. There are $50,000 for tropedo shiqs, $100,000 for, a marine railway, $100,000 for a dry dock on an island where a Texas congresman says . he don’t know where it is. “This bill caries an appropriation of $150,000,000. Can you blame me, as a member of the naval committee for com ing in here, and crying out, and crying out loud against such gross extrava gance?” This is but a single quotation an dthe bill passed and that infamy was fast ened on us! I am glad there were two Georgians who protested. WOMAN TO SIT IN DEMOCRATIC COUNCIL LOS ANGELES, Cal., March 1.—Miss Mary Foy, of Pasadena, today is on the way to Washington, where she will be the first woman to attend a national party committee meeting. As proxy for State Senator Sanford, she will occupy the seat allotted to California in the council of the Democratic national com mittee and will be California’s sole rep resentative. When Senator John B. Sanford, of Mendocino county, found that he could not attend the council, he nominated Miss Foy as California’s delegate and she was promptly accepted by other Democrats.

Iam | i President Woodrow Wilson is the master of an uncommonly clear style in writing and speaking:. The clarity of his style grows out of the clearness of his thinking; and he thinks clearly on moral and religious matters as well as upon economic and political subjects.' Recently he was reported as saying the following wise words about turning churches into places of entertainment instead of holding them as houses of worship designed for the achievement of spiritual ends: "When we say that the way lo get young people to the church is to make the church interesting, I am afraid that we too often mean i that the way to do it is to make it entertaining. Did you ever know the theater to be a successful means of governing conduct? Did you ever know thfe most excellent con cert or series of concerts to be the means of revolutionizing a life? Did you ever know any amount of entertainment to go farther than bold for the hour that it lasted? If you mean to draw young people by entertainment with something that is not entertaining, but which grips the heart like the touch of a hand. I dare-say there is some ex cuse for alluring persons to a place where good will be done them, but I think it would be a great deal better to simply let them under stand that the church is a place where life is dispensed, and if they want life, they must come to that place," This is a most timely utterance, which both preachers and people will do well to lay to heart. There is a rather general impression abroad that the pulpit of today spqaks with less authority than did the pulpit of the past, and that the churches have lost power over men. If this impression is justified by the facts in the case, we need not go further than the wide spread disposition to use the churches lor purposes of entertainment to find an explanation of the diminished in fluence of the preachers and the Chris tian organization. When the pulpit enters the field .of entertainment and bids fbr the patronage of amusement- loving people, it can not speak with authority, but it must speak to please; and a world-pleasing preacher or church can never exert spiritual influence over men. On the contrary such a church or pulpit is treated querulously and whimsically by its pleasure-seeking patrons, who will neither dance when it pipes nor mourn when it laments. The command of the Lord to the apos tles was, “Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this LIFE;” and this is the will of God concerning the men in all ages who claim to be ambassadors of Christ. The pulpit is no place for merely enter taining lectures and addresses;—no, not even for worthy and elevating dis courses on literary, scientific or social questions. ‘However useful and proper such discussicffi may be at other times and places, they are utterly out of place in the church of God upon the day set apart for worshiping our heavenly Father and drawing religious refresh ment from the fountain of spiritual life. The gospel of Christ by its very nature does not admit of treatment for ends of entertainment; it is too solemn and serious for such uses. To undertake to amuse or divert with the gospel of a crucified Redeemer is to do some thing worse than committing a blun der;—it amounts almost, if not quite, to a profanity. Eyen men of the world feel that a church is to be censured which seeks to gain the patronage of the world by playing the part of a purveyor of amusements. When the church ceases to speak with authority and begins to court* the favor of men rather than to call them to repentance, it loses the respect of all sensible people and pro vokes their derision. The comic periodical called “JUDGE" can not set up a just claim to a religious character, but recently that paper satir ized the amusement-making church in the following piece of broad and bitter ridicule: THE CHURCH AND THE NEAR FUTURE. The Rev. E. Lycurgus Gabb will preach Sunday morning, at 10:30, on the topic, “The Progress of the War on Tuberculosis.” His evening topic will be “The Best Seller in Recent Fiction." The topic of the weekly prayer-meeting will be "Pe ter the Great,” illustrated by fine moving pictures. There will also be a moving-picture show in the church on Monday evening. On Tuesday evening the Athletic Association of the Church will have a prize drill and a contest for a silver cup, in which the young men of a sister Church will take part. A good time is expected. On Wednesday evening there will be an interesting and exciting bas ketball contest in the gym of the church, followed by a supper, to be paid for by the losing team. On Thursday evening two teams will each try to do the other lip in a bowling contest, which promises to* pack the bowling alley of the church to the limit. After the con test, some of the experts in the swimming line will do some fancy swimming stunts in the church swimming pool. On Friday evening the young peo ple of the church will, have a rag tag and bob-tail social, which prom ises to be a very hilarious affair. A prize will be given to the person attending in th^ most ridiculous costume. On Saturday night there will be a baked-bean supper, to be followed by a pleasing entertainment. It is in this way that the Church is opening its doors every day in the week and seeking to create Christian character among its ad herents. Let the good work go on. Some may regard it as highly im proper to transfer this bit of coarse derision of the churches from the pages of “Judge" to this column, and may consider blameworthy any seeming ap proval it by copying it. But the very extravagance of the thing may serve as a warning against a prevalent tendency in the church which has gone already to disgusting and dangerous lengths. Recently the press dispatches re ported the case of a church in Chicago which had opened “a dance hall in the parish house to compete with the vi cious institutions of this character that comprise such a problem in Chicago.” This church which has gone into the dance-hall business was described in the secular press as “a most fashion able church", whatever that may mean. To apply the word “fashionable" to a church smacks of a spirit, however, that one might expect to manifest itself in routs and balls; but it suggests noth ing akin to the spirit of the church whose birth and growth are recorded in the Acts of the Apostles. If* such a question be not too profane for Christian people to frame, let us ask how it would look in the pages of the Acts if we read there the state ment that Paul opened a dance hall in the city of Corinth *to „ compete with the “vicious institutions” which made the moral problems of that dissolute commercial metropolis which flourished and festered in the first century? But the great Apostles to the Gen tiles can not be conceived of as a how can a church hope to escape degen eration when it undertakes to compete with the play-house or the dance-hall? The proposition is as senseless as it is sinful. The one business, and the exclusive, business of the church is to produce and promote spiritual life among jnen, to make converts and edify believers. • It has wandered from its work when it undertakes to engage in the business of diverting people. It can not without discrediting itself beg the world for its patronage, and it never dishonors itself more than when it offers men a premi um of an amusement in order to get them to subscribe to its support. Our Lord is reproached when his church offers to give a theater-ticket or dance- ! hall privileges to any one who will I accept them. O the shame of so much j as thinking of such a wretched pro posal! tOVA Uu Scuofvwtt TVva’PwAws H Yc©£v , t Ovv\\owC $A\, - Wv'to. Cc&oXoawa. YcTXqju 3<X\.0cY&-cv/ * a* - if-2. 5^7. Recipes and Suggestions Tested and Found Good by Homekeeping Experts preacher resorting to such degraded and degrading methods to catch the patronage of a lost world. He has left us a. description of the means upon which he relied to redeem Corinth from its foul sins. In his first Epistle to the Corinthians he says, “And I .breth ren, when I came to you, came not with, excellency of speech, or of wisdom, de claring unto you the testimony of <Ickl. .For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ and Him crucified. And my speech and my preaching were not with enticing words of wisdom, but In demonstra tion of tlie Spirit and of power. That your faith should not stand in the wis dom of men, but in the power of Fod.” (I Corinthians 11:1-2, 4 and 5.) What would a inan with a programme and purpose of that sort think of a proposal that he should enter the field of com petition with alluring dance-halls? The truth is the church of God can not hope to compete with worldly insti- tutioiis in offering such attractions. If one undertakes the business of amusing people, be must prepare to change the play-bills often, and with each change he must make the next bill a little more sensational than the last, until at last he roaches a point at which he dare not go further in that direction and can not go backward. It is then his patrons turn away from him, and go elsewhere to seek some new thing. The theater exists under this irresistible law of degeneration, and this fact ‘ex plains the oft-repeabed cry, “Let us re form the theater.” The vain proposal has'been made again and again for more than a thousand years. In every age of its history all men have agreed that the theater should be reformed, but no body has ever been able to reform it. Like mortal man, "it never is, but al ways will be blessed.” But if the theater, operating the busi ness of amusing people, can not with stand the inevitable gravitation to evil, HUSBAND TIRED OF SEEING HER SUFFER Procured Lydia E. Pinkham’s ' Vegetable Compound, which made His Wife a Well Woman. Middletown, Pa. —“I had headache, backache and such awful bearing down pains that I could not be on my feet at times and I had organic inflammation so badly that I was not able to do my work.

My neighbors said they thought my suffering was terrible. “ My husband got tired of seeing me suffer and one night went to the drug store and got me a bottle of Lydia E.

Price of Coal Goes Up Three Times More Than Wage Increase WASHINGTON, March 1.—Hard coal companies increased the wages of their employes at the rate of $4,000,000 a year by the strike agreement of last May and increased the price of anthra cite to consumers $13,450,000, accord ing to a report based on an investiga tion by the bureau of labor submitted to the bouse today. The report submitted by Secretary Nagel is the result of an investigation conducted in response to a house res olution asking for the "elements of cost and profit included in the present high price of anthracite.” An average increase of 2G cents a ton, in wholesale coal prices was dis covered to have been made since the strike agreement of last May. In spite of the fact that the workers ben efited about $4,000,000, in increased wages in the year, the report adds that ‘The recent increases in prices have been more than sufficient than to com pensate fully those companies whose ciists of production have increased more rapidly during recent >*ears and at the same time, have very greatly increased the profits of those compa nies, of whom there are at least sev eral whose costs of production either decreased or 'remained stationary durin the same perid." Of the-more than $13,000,000 gained by the operators after the strike agree ment, $10,900,000 was derived from gen eral increase in prices and about $2,- 550/000 from the suspension of April and May discounts while, in addition, a limited number of operators are re ported to have “recovered large sums through the sale of coal at premiums made possible by the shortage of ship ments,” incident to the strike. - The discounts of 40 and 50 cents a ton customarily allowed in April and May on domestic size coal were sus pended during those months in 1912. As a result the operators not only gained by saving this discount, says the report, but in addition purchasers who were unable to get their usual supply in those months were forced to buy it during June, July or August when discount rates were smaller or in September and later when full circular prices are charged. The $13,450,000, the report says, was not net profit because out of it came the cost of the six weeks’ cessation of work by the strikers and also the increase in their wages. • The increase in wages however, the report adds, represents a raise of only eight to ten cents a ton in the cost of coal production. , % FITE MAKES REPLY TO HILL_AND GOVERNOR Says That It Is Amusing as They Do Not Reply and Are “Yet Replying Still" CALHOUN, Ga., Feb. 27.—When ap proached with regard to the published replies of Governor Browri and Judge Ben Hill to his remarks regarding them, Judge A. W. Fite, after a few minutes deliberation lias made the following statement: “The reply of Governor Brown and Judge Hill to my remarks to the grand jury is amusing in that they will not reply anil are ‘yet replying still.’ The governor is an amicable little gentleman and I said nothing derogatory of him. I am of the opinion from my conversation with him that, if the officials, whose duty it is to suppress the oqen and no torious violations of our prohibition laws, and who, seemingly, arc unable to do so, would call upon the'governor that he would do his duty and if necessary, Call out the militia and suppress them. “I am glad that Judge Hill pleads ‘guilty,’ and am sorry that he pleads ‘not guilty,’ but this is not strange, for ‘they all do it.’ Everybody knows that all locker clubs sell liquor; and every lawyer knows that every locker club that sells liquor is a blind tiger, and that every member of a locker club that sells liquor is a blind tiger. "Judge Hill’s statement that I was re versed in three cases recently is about his size. Why, the court of appeals re cently reversed themselves once and me twice in the same case, but the negro is now in the penitentiary in spite of them, on his own confession of guilt in open court. "Some one has said that ‘the judge who is reversed the most is the one who does the most and stands closest to the people.’ The technical judge is a men ace to the proper administration of the law, and the law should be amended so as to provide that no case should be re versed where no hurtful error of law has been committed and substantial justice has been done.” i Judge Fite said that if the law would give him authority he would himself call the governor’s attention to violations oc curring outside his own circuit. , FOR THE HOME COOK. Cream Puffs.—Most people think cream puffs “impossible," but they are really quite simple. I have found this method a very good one: Boil together one cup of water, onc- lialf cup of butter. While boiling, add onc-lialf cup of flour. Stir until smooth, then cool and add three eggs, well beaten. Stir smooth and drop on butter pans by tablespoonful. Bake twenty-five minutes. You will be sur prised at the way they puff up. Cream for filling: Rub together one- half cup of sugar, two teaspoonfuls of flour. Stir slowly into one-liaif cup of boiling milk, add one egg. well beaten; flavor with vanilla. When cold, cut the puffs open and fill with the cream. It’s fine.—Mrs. E. H. Chocolate Cream Pie.—This is a very gciod recipe: Yolks of three eggs, one-half cup of sugar, five tablespoonfuls grated choco late (unsweetened), one cup of milk, one pinch of salt, one teaspoonful of vanilla, one tablespoonful of cornstarch, Cook -until it thickens, stirring con stantly. Beat the whites of three eggs, add two tablespoonfuls confectioner’s sugar; put this meringue over top of custard and put in oven to brown. It tastes line.—Mrs. Ida Jones.

Kwtabilshod Over ftO Years TIFTON TO OBSERVE “CLEANING UP” DAY TIFTON, Ga., March 1.—Georgia’s annual "clean up day,” according to pronouncement of the state federation of women’s clubs, March 10, will be a great occasion in Tifton. The Twen tieth Century Library club of this city has so decreed, and that goes.
