Last evening" the Sunday School room
Of the Fourth Street NJ. E. Church was
filed WITH large audience, the occasion

favorable impression in every community

more work in the cause Of religion than
any other woman living or dead.
Miss Smiths talks are Of the most inter
estng character and she possesses the pc
culisr power Of holding the largest audi

power OF conservation in relig'
ious work. The service was entertaining
throughout, and the deepest interest was
manifested by those present, which fact is
a good criterion that the succeeding meet

good work done. Miss Smith is always
glad 10 see the working class generously
represented 10 her audiences, and it is her
highest aim to bring them into the fold.

hand, and they are always just as glad TO
meet her. Aside from her great work
among railroad men she keeps an eye
especially upon the commercial traveller
