The paper bottle works at Glassboro,

that operations will not be resumed.
This establishment is the only one of its
kind in America, and with the closing of
the door a unique industry will be aban-
doned.
Paper bottles are comparatively a re-
cent invention, and their market is linn
tied principally to two ounce ink bottles.
The company was induced to locate in
Glassboro about two years ago, and al
though the trade was small at the start
it gradually increased, and the manufac-
turers hoped that the bottles would find
a wider field for use when they became
more extensively known. They are large
ly used in export trade, where duties are
levied according to gross weight, as they
only weigh one-third as much as glass
and are nonbreakable. The bottles are
made by machinery, and but little hand
labor is required III their manufacture.

"A victim to the antique craze.

And of my worship will rave none,
And all her winsomeness she wastes
On u~nresponsiye wood and stone.

And now her heart will only glow
For musty draperies from afar.

No conference in the Southern Meth
odist Church has prouder history
than the Baltimore Conference. Some
of the most gifted men who ever occu-
pied the Episcopal chair have presid-
ed at this conference. Since 1865,
when the Old Baltimore Conference
was divided on account of the slavery
question, the following Bishops have
presided over the deliberations of the
Baltimore Annual Conference South:

Duncan and +. r. Hendrix.

large districts IL Baltimore and one in
Washington. The other five districts
are located in Virginia and West Vir-
ginia.
The Rev. James E. Armstrong is the
secretary of the conference His as
sistants are the Rev. j. Watts Shoatf
recording secretary. and five ssta-
tistical secretaries namely, Revs.

James 2. Stump, Henry S. Coe and
William NJ. Waters.
According to the reports submitted
at the Conference sessions of 1892, the
various departments of the church
showed gratifying increase over the
year 1891. Conservative estimates
predict that when the reports from the
presiding elders shall be read at Front
Royal, the members of the Conference
will have cause for congratulation.

borough; also there are many pokes,
although exclusive shops are trying to
exclude them.
Few straight rims will be worn and
the sailor hat has practically disap-
peared-to be revived, probably, as
the season advances.
The trimmed hats are dented front,
back or sides-sometimes the rim is u
circles of dentures; they seem to be Sc
cured by crushing the rim in the fin
gers at haphazard.
Bonnets are pointed in front and
scooped out at the sides; sometimes
they fit close and square in the back in
order to accommodate the lace curtain
which threatens to be an imperative
adjunct of middle-aged bonnets.

This seasons only essential novelty
that is sure to stand the test of popu-
larity, says the Illustrated american are
the bonnets of shot Amour chip. They
are pretty, smart-looking, and have a
happy way of harmonizing with all
light fabrics. There is also q wide
plat Of satin straw in several colors,
which is not only used for the entire
bonnet, but also for the quaint up
standing bows that are so fashionable
They are placed over the forehead, and
are intended to represent, as nearly as
possible, the out-stretched wings OF
birds or butterflies. Many of the new
bonnets and hats are composed OF two
colored straws, the crown Of one, the
the brim Of another, while some of the
newest have these broad outstanding
brims of quite different color to the
outside black being lined with pink
straw, or sometimes with green.
