other series equally fascinating is the one called
Great Personal Events, in which some Of the great

be revived those wonderful times when Louis Kos

Wales was here; when Jenny Lind sang in Castle
congregation by selling slaves in his pulpit; when
Grant went round the world; when Henry Clay bade
farewell to the senate; when John Wesley preached
in Georgia, of which so few know. All these mem
orabe events and others will be vividly recalled,
told more graphically than ever before, and illustrate
ed with pictures which have occupied twelve artists

CHRISTIANITY IN BUSINESS.
Its Principles Applied Would Work a
Glorious Revolution.

There is not the least question that
as the commercial world Is organized
and run to-day 1t is run at fearful
loss along the side of money" writes
Rev. Charles M. Sheldon, author OF
"In His Steps," in the Ladies' Home
Journal. Even the rules of success
that business men lay down do not
insure success. Perhaps no age has
equaled this for disturbance and un-
rest and warning interests In the busi-
ness world. If the principles of Chris
tainity were applied to the whole busi-
ness world it would cause shock that
for the time being would result In
what might prove to be the greatest
financial panic Of the ages. But out
of that result would emerge a new
order of buying and selling that would
result ultimately in more financial
success on the part Of more people
than the world has ever witnessed.
Ultimately love will pay In dollars and
cents better than selflshness. On sell
fish principles the business world to-
day does not succeed even in the mat.
ter of making money-that Is, not for
any length of time nor for the masses

IL Did Not Work.

"a good, strong bluff at the proper
time is a very good thing, but it may
fall fat" said we'll known travelling
man who is at present visiting Wash

hotels in Kansas City few days ago
that one of the guests stepped into the
lobby to leave his umbrella, and not
desiring to go to his room thought he
would try a scheme of his own to pre-
vent some one from walking off with
it. Taking slip of paper from his
pocket in big black letters he wrote
the following notice: Beware! The
man who owns this umbrella weighs
over two hundred pounds and can
strike ten-ton blow. He will be back
in fifteen minutes 1t was not long
after that some one was attracted by
the sign, and he feared not the conse'
ouences of the dire threat. Quickly
taking the coveted umbrella he re-
moved the paper, and, turning 1t over,
wrote on the back as follows: The
man who took the umbrella weighs
less than one hundred and fifty pounds,
but can walk ten miles an hour. He
is never coming back '"-Washington

Cost OF a Church CARPET,

"The Chicago Advance" gives the
following estimate of the direct and
collateral cost Of a church carpet.
The price was $500, but as the women
of the church raised the money by CIV
ing entertainments the pastors esti.
mate was that when all the items Of
cost was figured in the carpet had cost
fully $4,000. He reached this aston
ishng total by estimating the work,
worry, nervous strain, bodily weari-
ness and heartaches of one hundred
women, the heroic efforts of men,
women and children to eat the things
which were to be eaten, and hear, see
or buy things which had been pro.
vided to extract money from them;
the colds, fevers and other ailments
contracted while attending the enter
tainments, and the consequent doc.
tors bills; the money spent in other
churches, for II they come to your en-.
tertainment you must go to theirs; /;
and, worst and most costly Of all, the
decentralization of the church and the
curtailment of the legitimate giving
which follow the train of such methods
of raising money. But they got their
carpet
