Roman Catholic and Episcopal church
es. To make preparations for the OBJ
servance OF Lent was TO aVow ones SELF
follower Of their sects.
But gradually. year by year, the Gus
tom extended little by little into other
denominations. First, with service OF
unusual solemnity, and then with i'm
pressiye sermons, until all church mem
bers began TO consider IL good form TO
avoid certain worldly pleasures during
the 40 days OF the Ienten season, and
tn turn their minds into moro serious
channels.
So widespread Is the result at the
present tina that business houses OF all
kinds and places OF public amusement
are affected by the arrival OF what the
French call "careme."
The religiously inclined people attend
church service with great regularity
and frequency during the season, and
abstain from meat eating and wine
drinking.
The devout pray much and attune
their minds TO spiritual thoughts.
The worldly mundane welcomes the
approach of Lent as season in which
to recuperate her strength and plan
her spring wardrobe.
The society people in various classes
for we have many different circles
OF people who form distinctive circles
of society in America-are all relieved
TO rest from entertaining and being en-
retained, and TO build up their mental,
physical and financial forces by lying
fallow for q time.
Meanwhile the young and gay find
the 40 days OF fasting and meditation
rather
TAXING TO THEIR PATIENCE.
They cannot pass all these days in
church-going, or all the evenings In
prayer, unless they are nuns and monks.
And 1t often becomes a question with
them just what they may or may not
do during this time for recreation and
amusement,
In our large cities Lent affords an ex-
cellent opportunity for brushing up
ones mental endowments by a course Of
| good reading. There is 30 little time
| TO read in the months which precede
and follow, and II we would keep our
selves in touch with the literature OF
| the day, we must set apart a portion of
each "a hours for reading. 1t is hard
to concentrate on such an occupation
after months of mental dissipation, but
the more difficult the effort, The greater
the need of 1t.
For others who are interested in the
study OF languages, or music, or art,
Lent offers a good opportunity OF pro-
gress. Even the most devoutly relIg-
lous person can find no harm In the
| cultivation OF the intellect.
The majority Of the young ladies' who
lead lives Of social pleasure during the
winter have a fad for denying them
selves some especial luxury during the
| lenten season. One eats no candies or
sweetmeats. Another denies herself
her morning beauty sleep, and rises
early as the greatest sacrifice she could
offer on
THE ALTAR OF LEISURE.
Another devotes her time TO the poor,
and still another does not allow herself
to criticise or poke fun at anybody for
80 whole days.
However absurd some Of these fads
may seem, there is certain amount OF
self-disclpine about them which rem
! ders them wholesome and beneficial.
To give up something which we dearly
love to do-wbether an innocent pleas
ure. or a small vice-is a means Of char
acter building.

AN ELECTRIC GAR
Collides With Kansas City Switch Engine-The Car Demolished and
 Motorman Injured.

What came near resulting in death last night at 7:43 o'clock was an accident at Ninth avenue and Twenty four. h street, where the West End division of the Bir- minaham Railway and Electric company's car line crosses the Kansas City, Memphis and Birningh ham railroad track.
 An engine was switching in the yard and was backing across the track, when West End car No. 31, run by Motormau w. A. DeWees, went 10 cross the track. At the intersection of these two lines clr No. 31 and this Kansas City, Memphis and Bir- mingham switch engine collided with each other, resulting in a smash up of the elec- tric car and the painful iniuring of Motor man DeWees.
 The car was knocked from the track and the motorman wss thrown several feet out on the ground. His right hand was cut, as was also his right leg.
 Luckily there was not single passenger on the car.
 Motorman DeWees claims that his reverse lever wouldn't work, and says that after he saw the engine was going To strike him he didn't know anything hardly. He said that he was excited and didn't know how he got out of the wreck.

No Blanks in this Competition.

This is a competition of rather an unusual
nature 1t IS common to OTTER prizes for the
best story, or picture, or architectural plan,
all the competitors risklng the loss of their
labor and the successful one merely selling
his for the amount of the prize. But the
Press Claims Company's offer is something
entirely different Each person is asked
merely to help himself, and the one who
helps himself to the best advantage is to be
rewarded for doing it, The prize is only Il
stimulus to do something that would be well
worth doing 1t. The architect whose com.
pctilive plan for a club house on certain
corner is not accepted has spent his labor on
something of very little use to him. But the
person who patents simple and useful de-
vice in the Press Claims Companps Compe-
ttion, need not worry if he fail to secure the
prize. He has substantial result TO show
for his work one that win command its val
uc in the market at any time.
The plain man who uses any article in his
daily work ought to know better how to M
PROVE it than the mechanical expert who
studies it only from the theoretical point Of
view. Get rid of the rid of the idea that an
improvement can be too simple to be worth
palenting TIE simbcr the better. The
pcrson who best succeeds in combining
simplicity and popularity, will get the Press
Claims Companys twenty five hundred dol
lars.
The responsibility Of this company may be
Judged from the fact that Its stock is held by
about three hundred of the leading newspa
pers of the United States.
