THE END.


Perhaps the first question that pre-
sents itself regarding heaven is its loca-
ton, writes Evangelist Dwight L.
Moody in The Ladies' Home Journal
"For my part, l am not satisfied with
the vagueness that describes my future
homo as everywhere and nowhere. I
read that the Master promised his dis
ciples an abode in his Fathers man
sions, whittier he was going to prepare
them "A place, and in the Revelation the
Apostle John described the wondrous
beauties Of the city of God. Tho Evan
from the little group of his disciples as
they followed him out toward Bethany
and that while they stood gazing up in
to heaven there appeared unto them two
messengers to cheer them with the
promise Of his coming again, and so it
is with the child of God when tho earth
~ pilgrimage is over. The soul ascends
to those mansions which Christ has gone
on before to prepare for those who love
him. The location of heaven is not an
important matter Christ said very lit.
tie about its situation, but great deal
about its being with God. To DO sure,
God is everywhere, but heaven is his
home; it is the Fathers house. 1t is
not the homestead that makes home the
most attractive place on earth, but it is
those who live there, and so it will be
with heaven.

Women Bull0ghters,

Two Of the most popular and richest
bulltighters in Spain are women, the
sisters Lola and Angelica Pretel TO wit,

girls they were circus riders, and then
1t occurred to their manager to mako
them toreras. The Pretel sisters were
successful from the beginning. Now
they are owners of large troop, or
qIadrilla, composed Of women bande-
rillos-tighters on foot-and picadors
or horseback riders. They take this
troop from town to town in Spain
giving exhibitions wherever they are
booked during the season, which lasts
from May till October each year. Each
of these women earns about 800, 900 re-
setas in Il single season geo, O00). Ont
of this amount she must furnish all her
elaborate costumes, for indeed she j.
dressed in "spanEles and gold" and
pay all expenses of the quadrilla. They
have IL magnificent villa near Madr'G

into the close part of this canon is
TO go up on trestle work built

water down town. One or two

the walls are so close that l think
at one place ii would be possible
to stand with one foot on either

SMALLPOX IN KANSAS CITY
Dread Disease Appears in Tricky
Settled Armourdale District.

Kansas City, Feb. 25.-One fully de-
veloped case of smallpox and another
that shows symptoms of the disease
was discovered by. the Kansas City,
Kan. authorities in the thickly popula-
ted district of Armourdale yesterday.
r. c. Rutt of 81 South Clay street
and his wife are both suffering from the
disease which the physicians pronounce
as being smallpox. The husband has
been i'll for two weeks, and is recover
ing from the disease, but it was not I'M
til yesterday that it was ascertained for
certain that the mans ailment was the
dreaded disease which is so extremely
dangerous to human life.
County Physician Clark OF Kansas
City, Kan, was notified yesterday that
the case was a suspicious one, and in
company with DR.. Campbell he visited
the Rutt home and examined the pat
lent. Dr. Campbell has had considera-
BILE experience in the treatment of the
disease, he having gone through the
epidemic here several years ago. He
pronounced the case to be smallpox and
the other physicians have agreed with
him.
Mrs. Rutt gave birth to a child Thurs
day, and she is showing symptoms of
the disease with which her husband is
afflicted and to which she was exposed.
