CHRISTIAN CHARITY.
HOW 1T is ExEMPLIFIED BY THE
METHODIST DIAGNOSES.

The Order Has Accomplished Much Good
In the SIuns of the Great Cities-Train-
ing of the DeacOnesses - How They
Work.
About once a year the people who
live in large cities learn with mild sur
prise something new about the Order of
Methodist Deaconesses. So quietly and
unostentatiously is the work of these
good women done that it is only when
their annual public exercises are held
that the existence of their organization
is recalled. The Methodist deaconesses
Of New York have recently thrown off
some of the reserve which has previous
ly characterized them, and not long ago
80 of them caused genuine sensation
by appearing on a public platform in
connection with an entertainment given
under church auspices
Although the order has been in exist
ence since 1895 and has spread until
there is q branch in almost every city
of Importance in the United States,
there are many Methodists who know
little or nothing about its scope or what
it has accomplished.
lG was In chicago ChaG the nrS6 Oea-
coness home was established. 1t was
the outgrowth of a society formed by
several unmarried women, who COM
bined for the purpose of having a com
mon home while engaged in city mis-
sionary work. After one or two seasons
of unrecognized labor the Methodist
church, of which the missionaries were
members, began to help the struggling
society. Similar bands were organized
in other cities, and in 1888, at the gen.
eral conference in New York, a commit
tee was appointed to establish the Order
OF Deaconesses OH substantial basis.
There are at present about S5 Deacon
ess homes and about $50 deaconesses in
the various cities.

SHAPE or THE EARTH,

For several hundred years mankind
has been taught to believe that the
world IS round. and no doubt whatever
mas existed as TO the correctness of the
belief up TO this time. but now comes
the celebrated Professor Fowler, of
England, who says that the lesson we
have been taught as regards the shape
of the world is all Il mistake lie SAYS
'hc earth Is not round. Professor
Fowlcr Is member of the Royal Astro-

purpose is TO measure the earth and fix

time the Fowler party will make arc
