TOpKNOT, COME DOWN.

| "A hot gospeler once preached ser
 mon based on the text 'Topknot, come
 down." The Rev. Dr. Matthew s.
 Hughes of Kansas City, who seems to be a pretty hot gospeler, the other even
 ing made a call to the topinots of his
 church to come down, and they came
 down. No wonder they did, for his call
 was made in way that strongly ap-
 pealed to one of the most powerful mo-
 tives of woman nature. It appears
 that the topknots in Rev. Dr, Hughes
 church have become obnoxious to many
 who want to see the face of the preach
 CT while he preacheth. Recognizing
 the justice of the obnoxiousness the
 Women's Foreign Missionary Society
 and the Ladies Aid Society of the church both adopted resolutions declar-
 ing that it was the duty of Christian
 women to take off their hats during church service. But the topknots didn't come down for any Christian duty
 pr. Hughes therefore boldly faced the situation and the topknots at an even- ing meeting. He first looked long at the tall towers, the waving flowers and the bobbing vegetable gardens and calmly yet regretfully remarked: "of course it would do no good for me to request you to take your hats off" It did do little good, but most of the topknots continued to tower and bob and wave Dr. Hughes tried again, saying, 'It would not do, perhaps, for some to take the,r hats off. They might take cold" All the topknot wearers acted as if they thought consumption's ghastly form was on their trail. Once more bold Brother Hughes made an ef- fort Tt would not do.' said he, flor other because they have fixed their hair in such way that it would not look pretty if the hat were removed" That brought down a few topknots. Then the intrepid doctor, seeing things com ing his way, rose to the full height of the occasion. "Others," he solemnly re- marked would fear to take their hats off lest the hair might come with them" Off came the rest of the topknots in a jiffy, and the glory of woman was seen to be her hair.
 Wise doctor, lovely women.

win lightship, and the French village Of
 Wimereux. Messages were first sent from the Ibis to the South Foreland
 and were received simultaneously by the
 Goodwin lightship. Signor Marconi' new invention was then tried, and the messages sent to the Foreland were concentrated there and received at no other point the lightship being cut out. A similar experiment. was made with the lightship, the ships communica ting with each other, while the Foreland was cut out AS a further test messages were sent simultaneously from Boulogne and the lightship to the South Foreland, where only the Boulogne message was taken by the receiver, the other being cut out at will. This experiment was also tried on board the Ibis and from the other points, in each instance with complete success. II has now, therefore, been clearly demonstrated that not only can moving ships communicate with each other at sea, but that the mes- sages can be concentrated upon the point which they are intended to reach.

POPLLIR

It is pleasing to read that the "popu- lar" feature of the last government loan is not yet obiterated, as many predicted it soon would be. According to the as sistant secretary of the treasury there has been nothing like the consolidation of the new bonds in the hands of large holders which many people anticipated. In spite of the high prices which have offered such attractive profits to the original purchasers of the bonds, and the demand by national banks wishing to secure them as basis for obtaining public deposits or new cir culation, the bonds are to a large ex- tent remaining in the hands of the orig inal purchasers, and the issue is far more widely scattered than any previous issue of a public security.
 Good. Another popular loan may go well when it is needed.

economize strictly, so Is likely to hold favor all summer with women who are lavish in their attire.
 New reception gowns are shown that have wonderful effects in woven ribbon
 Whole fronts to bodices panels and shield pieces are made by weaving strands of ribbon in to the required shape. Sometimes the weaving makes loose lattice work, again the basket effect is close. Sometimes millner' s folds of silk are used instead of ribbon Silk in blended cashmere colors thus folded and woven creates lovely ar- ray of color Very often dress finished In this way is further ornamented by embroidery braiding with ribbon or folds, the folds being laid in scrolls piled Into flowers and leaves in elabor- ate raised patterns. This Is another costly wrinkle and one that it is almost impossible to copy inexpensively.
 A trick of ornamentation that can be adopted to slim purses is the new fancy for wearing duck revers over the revers of jackets. These wash revers are req sonably sure to gain in elabora tion and before long there will be delicate and berufs1ed muslin and null revers made to button inside tailor or dress tailor jackets and lie out over the cloth or vel vet revers Meanwhile. for the woman who is heroically going to weah her last falls tailor dress as long as she possibly can, this notion will be a blessing. It will give touch of modshness to her gown and enable her now and then to forget that the back of her skirt has some fullness and does not trail half yard or SO. FLORETTE.

Of course the anti-imperialists don't approve the action of the government in ordering Edward Atkinson's pamph- lets out of the mails. But while pro- testing against this act of arbitrary and illegal power, which would hardly be attempted by any government of Eu- rope, except, perhaps, that of Russia. D the executive committee of the Anti 1mperialist league has concocted let ter to MT. Atkinson in which it says: The executive committee of the Anti Imperialist league thought it proper to privately communicate at once to the same persons to whom, as you advised us April 22, you had written to express your intention of mailing your pamph- lets to soldiers in the field, that the league did not desire to circulate it's lt- erature in this manner An inadvert- ence in expression, doubtless acciden- tai, conveyed to the recipients of your letters the impression that you had re- ferred to the leagues publications and their distribution.
 This looks as if the league didn't quite approve MT. Atkinson and as if it had notion that attempting to spread dlsaffection among the soldiers in the field might not add to it's popu- larity. It certainly wouldn't

President George Davidson of the Ge- pgraphical Society of the Pacific, who
 t has been examining Spanish govern nnent publications to learn the exact area of the Philippines, finds that the estimates of the number of square miles in the archipelago made at Wash ington are far out of the way. The War department has assumed that the entire area, less the Sulu group, is 114,~ S26 square miles. According to Span ish authorities. it is 1370 057 square miles. Reefs, rocks and banks are not included in this figure. There is also a discrep- ancy between the War department and the Spanish totals of the number of isl- ands Instead of from one thousand to one thousand two hundred, there are only five hundred and eighty-three of both large and small islands the reefs, rocks and banks being omitted in this case also. In these figures the Span ish government evidently intended to refer to all inhabited and inhabitable area.

Miss Henrietta Muller, prominent English woman, ex-member of the Lon don school board, has given much time to the study of modern Indian religion She was one of those who were taken with the much-tall1ed-of Swami Vive- kananda. So deeply fascinated was she with the Hindu religion that she went to India four years ago in order to be able to study it more closely. She is now reported as saying in Bombay newspaper that she is face to face with the unavoidable conclusion that it is utterly rotten and corrupt from begin ming to end, and full of danger to the unhappy people who place their faith in 1t. She will henceferth have no more to do with Vivekananda.

The ice chamber is placed AT THE SIDE of the provision cham Der. The air in the ice chamber being colder and heavier falls to the bottom and flows out under the partition into the provision chamber. The warmer air in the provision chamber flows over the partition into the ice chamber, where it in turn is cooled, and drops to the bottom of the chamber again. There is constant current of air descending in the ice cham Der and ascending in the provision chamber. That is a POSITIVE, CONSTANT CIRCULATION.
