Interdenominational Prayer Circle. Alter much prayer and faettuc, the Interdenominational Prayer Circle ot America wet organized and atarted la Eranaville, Indiana, by Rev. H. B. Boiler, a well-known evangelist and author. Mr. Roller, In an Interview, said: "The prayer circle Is a union of all denominations and creeds who will agree to pray for a more general re vival In the United States and for the entire Weatern Hemisphere. No subscription la required and no con stitution or by-laws to bind as the prayer circle Is by no means to come In conflict with any church or hen- avolent organization, but It to be an auxllllary to ezlztlng organizations In the church. Any one can become a member by Signing a card containing the follow ing seven conditions. 1.

Boston, baa agreed to represent the Baptist church of the prayer circle commit tee and Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman, D. D„ of Now York, the great evapgelis', the Presbyterian church and ao on. It Is endorsed by leading men of aU denominations and by such workers as Dr. Tojrey, the evangelist, Evan Roberts, the leader of the Welsh re vival and Mlsa Evangeline Booth, ot the Salvation Army. A circle has been formed here and a regular prayer meeting la held every Friday nigh: In Perker'a class room on Thomas street. All who are Interested lu. such a movement are Invited to cooporate by attendance and membership. Origin of Words. To Milan Is owed the word "mflll- nery," a milliner having been origin ally a Mllaner, an Importer of femin ine flnery from Milan, Just as a "cordwalne:,” shoemaker, was a work er In "cordouan," leather from Cord ova. It Is curious to note bow many words have come from the geographi cal names of northern Italy. There is, for Instance, "florin,” the coin of Florence, and “pistol," from Plstoja. Dr. Johnson said that the worJ “Job" was "a low word now much In use, of which I cannot tell the etym ology." It Is supposed to be really Identical with "bog,” a mouthful or morsel. Pepya recorJs how "my lord" said to him, “I will do you all the good Jobs I can" and £epys himself speaks of Tangier as "hitherto used as a Job to do a kindness to some lord.” But the simple monosyllabic ugliness of the word was too much for Johnson, Many wor's of the most august sound prove to be quite commonplac ancestry when traced to their origins. “Finance" Is really only settling up. Literally It is Just "ending” and was formerly used In that very simple sense In the English language. Then It came to signify settling up with creditor and acquired the special sense ot ransom.
