NOTES.

At recent German Woman's Con-
gress, it was stated that the number
of women in English Trades Unions
is one hundred thousand.
The Congregational Total Absti-
hence Association has appealed to
20, as Temperance Sunday.
At it's recent great meeting in Car
negie Hall, New York, the Christian
Alliance, under the lead of DR.. A. B.
Simpson, raised SIP, 900 for missions.
The corporation of the city of Glas
gov, Scotland, has not granted a new
liquor license for eight years. Now
let it commence to repeal all the old
ones and usher in glorious new cen
fury of Prohibition.
The successful social settlement,
presided over by Mr.. Herbert Stead
and his CO. workers, is situated in the
once bright suburb of London, where
Robert Browning was born and where
there is now crowded center of
over one hundred and twenty thou
sand people. The Robert Browning
settlement is accomplishing a splen-
did, aggressive work in the poverty
and squalor OF that part of Central
South London.
That the death rate in Scotti sh
prisons is only eight per one thou
sand is with good reason ascribed by
the Scottish Reforner to the disuse Of
Intoxicating liquors and the healthfnl
benefit of the prison regime. There
is no doubt that were the liquor traf-
fic banished from the country at
large, many of these same people
would be law abiding citizens, and
live in comfort, conforming to good
morals and customs as strictly as
could be desired.

by Lady Henry Somerset of Engla nd i,

not as criminals.
To aid in their restoration to
healthy mental and physical condi-
ton, they will be given active en-
ployment, such as the raising of veg
etables, care of fowls, bee keeping,
dairy and laundry work. Each wom-
man will be charged one dollar and
twenty five cents a week, and this
she will work out, while whatever
she earns above that at her regular
labors will be given to her on her de-
parture. Six women will be in each
cottage, and the village will have,
besides it's homes, chapel, hospi

One hundred and eighty acres are
included in the area of the village.
There will be resident physicians, and
