 The marriage of MT. Benjamin Palmer Carter of Johannesburg. South Africa, to Miss Annie Laurie Chambers of Alabama was of unusual interest, and was cele- brated yesterday at Amte City.

Woman's Mission to Woman.

It would require columns to describe the mental and moral condition of the heathern women recalled by women in mission fields, but the result of the mission movement that has unfolded during the century among the women of Christian lands is conspicuous example of woman's influence and power to uplift the women in far away lands. Increased knowledge means increased responsibility and to seek to raise the womanhood of the world to the high plane where God would have her take her place, is the grandest movement of the century, making it become vibrant with new force, and in listening yester- day to the earnest talks of Birmingham women, it was impossible not to be thrilled with the thought that they were advocat- ing cause for which nearly two millions of women have organized themselves into an army that noted woman has called the greatest international womans club of the world.
 After the organization of the Missionary Union yesterday, Mrs. B. D. Gray, vice president of the central committee, made report of the work of the womanis auxiliary as given at the pecent meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention, which she attended. She spoke of the recommenda- tions of the Home and Foreign Mission Boards, and she paid especial trisute to the work of Miss Annie Armstrong, of Baltimore, the Secretary of the Womans s Auxiliary, well as to Mrs. Charles A. Stakely, of Washington. D. C., who two years ago succeeded Miss Fannie E. S. Heck, of North Carolina, as president. Mrs Gray also recalled meeting at the recent convention Miss Claudia White a returned missionary from China, who eaEsa before the vast audience in Chinese dress. When she appeared the convention arose en masse, and it was some moments before she could begin speaking. Miss White. con tinued Mrs Gray, explained the need of a gospel boat in the Canton district and sub scriptions were taken for the necessary funds Mrs. Gray declared as Miss White plead for the people of her adoption her sad, but beautiful, face told stories of suf- fering and hardships to which her lips were sealed.

to the building of churches in destitute places, particularly on the frontier and upon the establishment of schools in the mountain regions an educational work in which Southern Baptist women are partic- uiar9y interested.
 In addition to the reports from the Wo- mans Auxiliary, the women present were most anxious to hear Mrs. T. A. Hamil- ton tell something of the Eeumenieal Con ference that she attended in New York. The morning had been so occupied with other reports and business routine that Mrs. Hamilton could only touch briefly upon the scenes of. that great gathering. But so vividly did she recall the stirring incidents of the occasion the brief time that she was speaking, that the audience had Carnegie Hall thronged with that mighty assemblage distinctly before it's eyes, and could fully realize that the event was one that Mrs Hamilton declared was recognized as the only occasion that ever caused the great city in which it occurred to pause. New York was sWayed by that great throng of Christian workers that filled not only Carnegie Hall with it's five immense galleries, but packed the churches to an extent never known before in the history of that great city.

PICTORIAL EXPRESSIONS.
Some Modern Slang That Has a
Good, Sound Ancestry.

There are many pictorial expressions
in constant and everyday use and
familiar as household words, says the
Boston Transcript, having their origin
in passages to be found in the match
less English of the grand old "King
James Version" of the bible. One
who did not know might hesitate to
believe that they are supported by suoh
high authority; and our modern over
sensitive taste might be tempted even
to designate them as slang, but they
are really word-pictures.
Nearly one-half of those here quoted,
with reference to chapter and verse,
it ill be noticed, are taken from the
Psalms; but David. the sweet singer,
was what we would now call familiar
poet.
have stuck unto thy testimonies, 0,
Lord, put me not to shame.-Psalm
cxix., 81.

Psalms, lxxii., 9.
They reel to and fro, and stagger
like q drunken man, and are at their

He that is surety for q stranger shall
smart for it.-Proverbs, XII, Is.
Tyre, the GROWING city, whose
merchants are princes.-Issish, XIII,
The Lord of hosts shall make unto all
wines on the lees.-Isaiah, XIV, 6.
The nations are as drop of the
bucket, and are counted as the small
dust of the balance.-Isaiah, XII, Is.

Of a wheel Ia wheel within q wheel).-
Ezekiel, x, 10.
1t was the patriot, Patrick Henry,
who exclaimed:
peace, peace, when there is no

These are but "a few instances, and
diligent seekers; so search the Scrip
lures, and s'when found make note

In the book of common prayer of the
church of England we find:
