much the personal influence Of godly
and cultured women has in sweetening
and smoothing the intercourse between
the workers from foreign lands and
the leaders of thought and activity
among the native Christians. 1t needs
the woman's hand to put the finishing
touch to the impression which Christ
ianity is making on the heather
homes and life.
The church buildings that we have
seen at Kyoto, Osaka and Kobe are
creditable specimens OF architecture.
They are fashioned after the ecclesias-
teal style, but have their modification
adapted to this country. There are
pointed Gothic windows, and colored
glass and platform and reading desk:
but there are shelves at the entrance
for clogs, and seats covered with mat
ting instead Of cushions. In the Kobe
church there was open carved work as
in the Japanese home over the sliding
screene. The symbolism of the vine
and branches and fruit was eminently
appropriate. There was a gallery; but

these churches that they are self sup

SAVED BY PIGS.
They Garry Life Lines Ashore From
Wrecked Steamer.
Kobe, Oct. II, 1897.

They Garry Life Lines Ashore From
Wrecked Steamer.
The steamer Kameruka, one of the
best known vessels on the Australian
coast, was wrecked on October 16, and
her passengers and crew were saved,
by sending life lines ashore tied to
pigs, which formed part of her cargo.
The Kameruka was on her way from
Eden to Sydney. She was steaming
ahead at full speed in a calm sea with
just light breeze blowing.
The Sydney Herald says that with a
fearful smash she struck the rocks
known as Pedro reef, about two miles
and a half on the other (southern)
side of Moruya Head. She was bound
into Moruya to pick up passengers and
freight for Sydney. Everybody ex-
cept the officer on watch and men on
duty were naturally in their berths
and awoke in great excitement.
Luckily there was no tremendous sea
running, for, strange to say, no rockets
were available by which to get line
from the shore to the ship or vice
versa, and in their absence the live
deck cargo, consisting of pigs, was
happily utilized, some of the animals
with signal halyards made fast to them
swimming ashore, and SO establishing
a means of communication which prac-
tically led to the rescue by travelling
cage of every soul on board the DOOM
ed steamer.
Captain w. O. Hersee, an old master
in the company's service, was in COM
mand of the Kameruka on her present
voyage, which appears to have been
a special one, made during the over
haul now being given to the regular
trader, the Bega. The Kameruka has
for some time been retained as a re-
serve steamer or emergency boat, so
that it is somewhat in the light of the
irony of fate that the steamer whose
special duty was to fill the breach in
case of accident or detention to any of
the other boats of the fleet should her.
self come to grief while so employed.
The loss is considerable one to the
I. S. N. Company, though the vessel is
partially insured in the South British
and Victoria Assurance companies.

Former prcaident of Cycle Board OF Trade
ENp,ots No Further Reduction
Tho announcement recently made that
some bicycle manufacturers have decided
10 cut their list price from 800 20 $,5.
created very litte surprise in trade cir
CleS. As is generally known, tho demand
this year has hctn for reliable goods list
Ing al prices within the reach OF the pub
ne. and ii has been an open secret thai the
higher priced makers have enaeaVored 10
meet this demand by putting out comhi-
nation Of a 90 and ~ model, With a %
nameplate, or they have instructed their
agents TO meet competition by cutting
prices.
Mr.. Il. Lindsay Coleman OK president OF
the National cycle board OF trade and pres
ident OF the Western Who'll works in
speaking on this subject says:
I'm establishing our prices IN 1893 we
were fully cocnizant ~ the trale conditions
then existing and wc determined To
meet tho popular demand for high grade
wheel at nm honest and reasonable price.
'our announcement that We had estab-
!ished cur price Mt $40 was mot by the
statement OF other manufacturers that a
strictly high grade wheel could not be
made and sold al low a figure. We ex-
pressed the opinion Mt that time that with
in five years, ether high grade makers
would fully realize their error IA cndoavor-
ing 10 maintain fictitious value on their
product and that the prices that We had
fixed would within that time become the
standard price for other high grade wheels.
III a bicycle is worth its list price In
January, il is worth that same price in
July: per contra. liza so-cailed 500 wheel
is worth but s76 in July It was certainly
worth no more in January Fictitious val
ues can no more be upheld for any length
Of time In the case OF bicycles than stocks
and bonds. The old adage that water must
seek its level is peculiarly true OF bicycle
prices.
"TLe secret OF the success OF the Western
wheel works Ia that we have dealt honestly
with the public. have stood felrlessly by
our pledges in establishing a fair fixed
price on our wheels. and II Is due to the
further fact that we so one step further
than other manufacturers. in that we not
only guarantee our wheels. but we gunran-
tee our prices as we'll. and the purchaser
OF a Crescent In February has tho satisf,c-
ton q knowing that his neishbor who
purchased Crescent in July paid the
same price as he did.
II do not anticipate that still further
reduction In the price OF wheels Will be
made next year. aud I believe that when
the announcement OF 'aS prices IL made
my prediction of 1898 win he fulfilled
that the Crescent price viii have become
the standard high grade price"
