The positions of honor at a dinner table

the host occupying the last seat after his
guests. The women sit at the left of the
table, all together. Among the more
cultured classes the host occupies the
head, the hostess the foot, the places Of

spent around the centre of the marble
topped table, lazily rocking to and fro in

a flow of small talk, filled with simple
jokes and sallies, constitutes the entire
evenings amusement. Where they have
pianos, the daughters exhibit their limit

BIDDEFoRD, Me-, Dec. 20. The clos
ing days session of the fourth semi
annual convention of the loyal workers
OF the Advent churches of Maine and New
city, was well attended by the Adventists
OF the twin cities, and delegates
from all parts of Maine and New Hamp-
shire.
The forenoon was devoted to business
and discussion of committee work.
Reports of societies were made and were
very encouraging, all showing a gain in
membership since the last semi annual
convention.
AT the afternoon meeting Mrs. Lila
M. Stevens of Dover, N. H., read a paper
entitled ''Literature in Our Homes" and
was followed by Mrs. Roger Sherman, who
spoke on EMISSIONS.
Rev. L. p. Woodward of Portland re-
ported for the prayer meeting committee,
and the president Of the Bangor society
for the lookout committee.
Rev. W. \. Tenney of Swampscott,
Mass, gave a temperance chalk talk to the
young people.
Miss Flora Berry of Lewiston read a
paper, subject, "Wanted-Young Won
en-.
At the closing meeting to night Charles
E. Whitney of Biddeford delivered an
address ON "Wanted-young Men, and
Rev. g. W. Shattuck of Lakeport, n. H.

responsibility.
Several Adventists who have been at
tending the convention believe that the
end of the world will come in 1899
radical member predicted to-day
that the Lord would come in November,

Rev. E. P Woodward OF Portland, edi-
tor of the Safeguard, however, is not
prepared to fix the time for the end OF
all things. He stated that he did not
believe that it was to come next year,
and said that not more than one Ad-
vent minister in 100 made such proph-
ecy.
The furthest date that he would fix was
1926 for the end.
