outlook.
Churches arc located now without any
common consideration. The denomina-
tons do not confer with one another.
There is one city in New England in
which two prominent churches of the
same denomination, one of which cost
about 100000, and the other over $780,
coo, are placed within 100 feet of each
other. The second came there against
the protest of the first. The example is
scandal in the community. But this is
not an isolated instance. In small
town in another part Of the country,
within hardly more than 1000 feet of one
another, stand eight churches. In not
more than one instance could the location
have been selected because of the need of
the district; what influenced the others
was the desire to be in a certain aristo.
cratic neghborhood.S Still more pernicious
is the influence in small villages, where
six or eight denominations crowd in and
only one or two at the most are needed.
The result Is an appalling waste, both of
men and of means. The treasures of
the missionary societies are either de-
pleted, or, il not drawn upon, deprived of
| what they would otherwise receive for
regions where there Is actual spiritual
desolation. Such overlapping federation
would prevent. And in this country
even more than in England, because of
our vast territory, it is desirable that the
| Christian sentiment should be able to
speak concerning social and political
| questions with common voice.

When you are buying bananas never
purchase the long. thin ones. unless
you want fruit which will quicker your
mouth. No matter how well ripened
these thin bananas may appear to be,
they will always be found both sour
and acrid. This is because the bunch
which contained them was picked too
soon. The banana grows fastest at fret
in length. When il has reached its full
development in that direction, it sud
denly begins to swell, and in few days
will double its girth. 1t is at the end
of this time that it begins to ripen nat.
urally, and the effort Of the banana im-
porter is TO have the fruit gathered at
the last possible moment, and, yet he-
fore the rippning has progressed even
enough TO tinge tho bright green of the
fruit with yellow. A difference Of %
houra ON the trees at this time will
make a differences 10 the weight If the
fruit of perhaps % per cent, and all the
difference in its final flavor, between a
puckery sour and the sweetness and
smoothness which are characteristic of
ripe fruit To get the bananas TO our
market in good condition requires fast
steamers, which must be provided with
ventilation, and other means OF keeping
the fruit from ripenipg too fast in the
hold. Much of the finest fruit do ripen
in the few days Of passage, and this is
sold to hucksters for street eale.

Speaking Of rabbits, here is para
graph from the Philadelphia Times as
to the popularity of the rabbit foot
Tho rabbits foot has "clum" tno
other verb or other form of mood or
tense Of verb describes the process 30
fitlyl to higher place in trinkstdom.
Heretofore the rabbits foot has been
simply mounted in silver, or, at most,
tortoise shell. Now ii appears environed
with gold, sometimes sci with precious
stones, and always engraved or embossed
in Gustly way. Formerly, too, tho
furry paw generally bobbed about from
a watch fob; it now appears in tho
form of brooches, cuff links studs and
a variety nf other designs. Like the
four. leaf clover, its particular virtue
lies in the good luck it ia supposed to
bring. OF course, thure can be no doubt
that all the rabbits feet on sale, in
whatsoever form are tho genuine article
--no self respecting jeweler would for
one moment hear of selling foot that
hadn't written affidavit that it was
cut by u red headed, cruss-eyed negro
from the left hind leg of rabbit killad
in a churchyard by new made grave,
in tho light of brand new moon. A nd,
in the face of all thin, no girl Of the
day but would prefer trinklet made
of q bunny's paw than all the pearls
and rubies and diamonds you could
heap upon her. What with tho four
leaf cloyers and the rabbits feet tho
jewellers are having great run Of luck
this year. But Of the two Bier Rabbitia
foot may bs said to hold frht place.

Successful Entertainment by the Chris
tan Endeavor Union

Successful Entertainment by the Chris
tian Ehdeavor Union.
A very large and enthusiastic audi
ence assembled at the Y. M. c. A. gym
nasium, last evening. 1t was the sec
ond of the socials given this winter un-
der the auspices of the Christian En-
deavor union.
The following program was most ex-
cellently rendered.:
Piano Solo-Mr. Hogben.
Selection-Yale Glee Club.
Recitation-Miss Wyre.
Solo-Miss Raymond.
Mandolin Duet-Miss Won Linden and
and Holbrook.
Fencing-Y. M. c. A. Fencing Section.
Selection-High School Girls Glee Club.
The most entertaining feature of the
evening was the exhibition of fencing
given by the Y. M. c. A. fencing sec
ton They presented a pretty picture
arranged in a double row dressed in
white duck trousers, and their immacu-
late shirt fronts made fine target for
the glistening steel. Their movements
were gracefully executed, as at the
word of command they lunged and par
ried the thrusts of the opponent.
The work of the class in point
| fencing was very exciting and the in
dividual efforts to score by lightning
| like feints, counters and disengages
called forth much applause. Instruc-
tor Louis Leyerzapf is surely to be con-
graduated for the proficient class he
/ has developed.
| The following members took part
Messrs, Holt, Taylor. Filley, Adams
| Frisbie, Hitchcock, Mayer and Fish
Refreshments We're served after the
entertainment. The committee of ar
rangements deserve credit for their

The report of Postmaster General
Gary, embodying as it does, the reports
and recommendations OF the assistant
postmaster general, is an exceptionally
important document, says the Review OF
Reviews. A large part OF the volume is
devoted to an argument, to our mind
unanswerabie, in favor OF the prompt
institution by this country of a postal
savings bank system. The array OF
facts and figures marshaled to show the
timeliness and importance of this step
oHaht to make Il deep impression upon
the congressional mind. The enormous
growth OF the postal and money order
business is addueed az showing how the
people already patronize the postal SER
vice for the Transmission Of funds. That
they would avail themselves OF it to de-
post their savings is beyond question.
Within few years the deposits would
be counted by hundreds OF millions.
The time is certainly suspicious for the
adoption of this policy of postal savings
banks. Further than that, however, il
ought TO be possible to combine that
policy with some plan for the improve
ment OF the currency system.

IT is notable fact that the United
States congress, at the present time,
does not number among its members
one great statesman. True, Thomas Il.
Reid poses as a leader OF the republican
party ard his arbitrary methods are
mistaken by some for craftsmanship
but the truth is that he is not 4 states
man. Tern to the democratic party and
where are its leaders? Where are the
Blaines, the Websters, the Thurmans.
or the Henry Clays Of the present dry i?
Not in congress. Their places as states
men and leaders are filed 10y represent
ntiyes OF trusts, monopolies ard aggre-
gated wealth-by men whose object is
legislation that will make the rich rich
er and the poor poorer. There are great
issues TO he met and settled within
the next few years AMI they will not b.
settled properly under present condi
tons. The statesmen who are to lead
the peoples representatives in congress
have rot yet appeared: but someW here
and somehow they will be found. and
then the power OF the trusts will be
broken.
