FOR SUNDAY OBSERVANCE.
Week of Prayer Suggested by the
w. C. T. U.

The National Womens Christian
Temperance union has issued the fol-
lowing call for week of prayer from
April 9Th to 10th inclusive:
"Our country is entering upon new
era, new and untried problems are pre-
sented for solution. Millions of people
are coming under our government who
do not understand our civilization or
our social and religious customs.
Believing that the Christian Sab
bath is an essential institution Of every
self-governing nation, which should be
observed throughout our entire pos
sessions, we, therefore, invite all Chris
tians to set apart the week beginning
with the Sunday after Easter as a time
of special prayer for preservation and
better observance of the Lords Day.
First, Let us entreat God to quick
en- the conscience of Christians regard
ing the duty of a better Sunday OBJ
servance, not only for themselves but
for those also whom they may influ-
ence.
Second, We recommend that during
this week time may be given to care
full study of the Sunday law as given
in Gods word that we may better ap-
preciate that ii is not a law intended
to deprive any of innocent pleasure,
but law of infinite love, given because
God knew that obedience thereto is es-
sential to our happiness here and here
after.
Third, Let us pray and labor that
the Sunday laws which make it poss-
Bile for most of those who are in the
employ of others to use Sunday for
rest and worship, may be continued and
more faithfully observed until the null
titudes of American citizens who have
no Sunday rest, and the millions re-
Gently brought under our protection
| shall also become the recipients of the
| blessings resulting from the observ-
| ance of the true Sunday"

KNOWS ITS FATE.
Binghamton at Last Relieved of All
Doubt as to the Piano Factory,

Binghamton wanted the Kellar piano
factory. Scranton got 1T. The former
worked hard for it, and were not full
ly satisfied up to Thursday that they
would not get 1t. They threatened to
withdraw from the bidding for the
plant but even that grain of comfort
was denied them for they--well the fol-
lowing which appeared in yesterdays
Binghamton Herald speaks for itself:
"Binghamton will not have the Kel-
Ter plano factory, for late yesterday
afternoon, after the Herald went to
press, Mr.. Charles L. Lee received a
letter from Mr.. Joseph Keller, proprie-
tor of the factory, in which he stated
he had decided to accept Scranton's
offer. He also thanked all the Bing-
hamton men interested in the enter
prise for their generosity and courte-
Gus treatment. 1T was about the kind
of an answer that Mr.. Lee antici-
pated."

The green moray, the giant seven-foot
eel from Bermuda, popularity called the sea
serpent. is still the leading attraction at
the aquarium. As for the green moray
itself it is more active now than it was
when il first came in on July T.
Another strong attraction is the row fish
with its horns and its whole profile so re-
markably like a COW. Another tank that
halts many persons is that containing the
green parrot fishes, with their great beauty
In coloring and after them come the trunk
fishes remarkable more for oddity than
beauty.
The fishes at the aquarium are all fed
at least once daily. In some tanks at feed
ing time they come scurrying up for their
food as chickens would. and in many the
fishes will take food from the hand. The
majority OF the fishes eat daily Live kill
lies are left in some OF the tanks for the
fish TO feed upon as they want them.
Occasionally it is plain that a fish doesn't
eat; that, as the saying goes, it is of its
feed 1t may go for a day or two. and
then turn up with a ravenous appetite. 1t
is always a source of qualification TO the
aquarium people TO see the stock eating
well. The fishes that are good feeders are
the likeIiest TO survive. and every effort is
made by supplying suitable and attractive
food 10 keep them eating. care being taken,
at the same time, not TO overfeed.
There are some fish that hibernate and
here in captivity they lie motiouless for
long periods and eat scarcely anything for
days and weeks at a time. But they find
their appetites all right when the period
of Information is over. and come in with
the majority that eat daily
Others do not eat regularly. Chief among
them are the mOrays. including the spotted
morays in their tank on the gallery pier.
and the big green moray on the ground
floor. One of the spotted morays once
went without food fourteen days. and on
another occasion for twenty@one days The

In the beautiful art of transferring copper

is followed by coating the surface three times
with varnish made OF thirty grams sandarach,
fifteen grams shellac, the same OF tuTpentine, and
S75 grams of 90 per cent alcohol This varnish
may be coiored desired; that is, red, with
dragons blood or yellow with eurclIrna. The
copper print is now soaked thoroughly in salt
water, then laid blotting. paper SO that the
moisture is drawn off and the pictwg remains only

with varnish, likewise the prigt, tie latter being
placed on the wood with the bri5ted side down;
