the notes, and without anyone making
comment the negro said the word

BIDS PRETTY GIRLS
TO FILL CHURCHES
Brooklyn Pastor Declares Beau
ties Could Draw Big Con
gregations Every Sunday.
Men like to be worked by a
woman’s tactful ingenuity.
Woman can never be so win
some when she ;r, nagging and ir
ritable as when she is tactful and
diplomatic.
Queen Esther’* attire was
probably not equal to a Welch
creation, but It helped to sway

BROOKLYN, N. Y., April 30.—
Above are some cf the epigrams that
the Rev. S. Edward Young uttered
in his sermon at the Bedford Reform
ed Church of Biooklyn. His topic
"The Young Woman Whose Attrac
tiveness (Jives Hor Power," was bas
ed on the story of Esther, the Jewess
who swayed a trrone and whose in
fluence is credited with saving her
race from extinction.
“The attra : : \e young women of
this part of Brooklyn," said the
pastor, "could fill every church in the
city every Sunday night If they used
their beauty and their attractiveness
in the right way. It's their fault
moreover, that the churches aren’t
filled.
"There is scarcely a circle of en
tertainment, however flagrant, in
Brooklyn to-night that doesn't con
tain at least one woman who has th*
power and the attractiveness to
transfer the whole group to tbs house
of God.
"Attractiveness is a God-given
power. Before it leaves you. j'oung
women, teforc your beauty fades, be
fore your aaj is gone, use it to the
beat advantage. If you do the
churches will be filled to the doors
of a Sunday evening."

TO YOUNG SWISS CADETS
GENEVA. April 30.—The SwIfs mill-

wich, were greatly surprised and
pleased recently to receive a modern
Krupp cannon from Germany for the

$40 when Fraulein Krupp heard of

The cannon was one of the first to
be employed at the Krupp works for
automobile firing, and is a good mod
