An Experiment that Will Be Watched.

The town of Flushing, N. Y, is
considerably stirred up on the pro
posed plan of Mrs. Ballington Booth
to establish a home forex-convicts in
the heart of that attractive village.
Last week the Booths bought
beautiful place consisting of house
and ten acres of land for $4,000
and now announce that they are 60
ing to bring sixty or a hundred ex-
convicts there. Some kind of employ
ment will be provided for them, a
large laundry for the women and
shops for the men.
The idea of an establishment of
this character in the heart OF Flush
ing causes great CONSERVATION
among the property owners, who
say they would rather have a prison
where these persons would be under
restraint than a home from where
they will be free to roam about and
have bad influence over men and
boys.
A petition is being circulated and
receiving many signatures, request
the Booths to change their plans.

ticIe of food until at last they have come
to be looked upon as only side dish, to
be used to a limited extent, and then
only as accessory to the table, sort Of
luxury instead of food. Nuts arenot on
ly exceedingly nutritious, but easy of di-
gestion if the skins or inner Innings are
discarded. They possess little if any
starch and therefore are valuable sub
stitute for other food in cases Of obesity.
They compel an amount of mastication
which is given to nothing else. No one
swallows nuts in the way they will other
food, without chewing it. Again, they
perform a function Of peptonization in
the stomach, assist in preventing the for
nation OF an excess of bile and act as
gentle laxative. Persons suffering from
dyspepsia will find a great relief by max
ing nuts part ftheir daily diet Pop

Achieving These Days.
The success which the Boston Journal
is achieving in the printing of halftone
Photographic illustrations in its daily
editions is attracting marked attention
among newspapers and the general pub
lie as well. 1t is method of illustration
which many daily papers have recently
tried, and in which practically all have
failed.
The problem of printing half tone cuts
on fast presses and on paper of the usual
newspaper quality has proved too much
for them. The success which the Journal
has made is therefore the most conspicu-
Gus. The Journal is giving much atten-
ton to the news of the English, Boer
War, and is illustrating that news with
remarkable effect.

continuing under the leadership Of
other active workers, the educa-
tional and evangelistic enterprises
which Mr.. Moody established on so
firm a basis. Strong efforts are being
made to convince Rev. 6. Campbell
Morgan, of London, that his field Of
duty lies in this country and not in
England. The Mortified Summer
| Conferences, which are far-reaching
in their influences are to be con-
tinued. The belief is expressed that
these conferences, if conducted along
the same lines, and by such men as
have heretofore assisted Mr.. Moody,
will continue to be the power in the
religious world that they have been
in the past.
The educational work established
By Mr.. Moody is to be endowed
The Mortified Seminary for girls
was started in 1879, originally for
the farmers daughters in the vicin-
ity; beginning with eight girls it has
grown to provide education for $50
and has about a dozen buildings.
The School for Boys at Mt. Hermon
was started in 1881 and is a fl com
panion to the girls school. The Chi
,ago Bible Institute was organized
n 1889.
Christian people in every part of
be country will be invited to give
