Rev. DR.. Andrews Continues His
Lectures on "Veracity" at Univer-
Sity of ChiCagO--Schley
and Sampson.

cause you do not agree with all the de-
tails OF It's creed.
Or. Andrews defended the white lies
OF conventional society. He said:
Society women often send down word
that they are not at home when a caller
rings while they are upstairs trying 10
take a nap. This is a conventional mis-
statement not meant TO deceive any one,
and il rary does. IL is a lie that is not
lie, and seems to have little harm
in II.
NOT sAMPsoNs "oBEDIENT."
Another of the conventional lies that
we hate is the complimentary ending 10
letters We say Yours truly, when we
mean nothing OF the sort Admiral
Schey would probably sign his letters 10
Sampson Most respectfully. your obed-
lent servant when he feels that he is
nothing of the sort, and Sampson knows
IL. too.
About all we mean by these conven-
tional endinFs is the same as we
mean when we say Amen which indl-
Gates that we are through"
DR. Andrews closed by saving that
lawyers should defend criminals whether
they believe them guilty or not. AS this
proceeding served the ends OF justice.

and 4 half of ripe, fresh raspberiies,
mash them with a wooden spoon in
basin. Then add pint and half of
cold water, the juice Of two lemons,
a few drops of rosewater, and a half
pound of sugar loaf. Let this mixture
stand for three or even four hours
and stir at intervals, so as to be sure
the fruit is thoroughly we'll mashed;
then strain through muslin. If con
Venient keep il on ice until wanted, and
just before serving add two bottles OF
soda water, lump of ice and when it
is in the bowl or jug float a few rose
leaves on top.
Some raspberDes are much fuller
Favored than others, then either more
water or soda water may be added and
ii may also require little more sugar,
which must be stirred until dissolved.
Ingredients, one and a half pounds
berries, one and a half pints water,
two lemons, twenty drops rosewatcr,
one-half pound loaf sugar, two bottles
soda water, ice and six or eight fresh

clam the most remarkable is his con-

the few months he has sat there he
has not spoken more than three or
four times. In that record space of
time, however, he has already estab-

ALLY relieved the congestion, says the
Baltimore sun" The old underground
railroads are paying only 3 per cent,
though they are checked with traff
at the rush hours.
Vested interests are declared to be
too strong to permit the laying of sur
face trolley lines in the Centers of Lon
don's traffic. Mr.. Balfour's suggestion
of new series of roads radiating from
the start of the city to the suburbs for
the use of cycles and motors only Is
practicable, but it would cost 500. .000,-
900 or more to condemn private proper
ty for that purpose. The widening of
the existing main roads would be even
more costly.
The problem of the slumS and the
| overcrowded tenements seems to be
even more acute in London than in
New York. Rents are so high, owing
to the lack of quick transit to the
| suburbs that the working people are
driven to form new slum settlements
| as fast as the old ones are torn down.
And the county councils model tene-
ments, built with the taxpayers money

Of her nearby sources Of water have
been appropriated, The nearest one

Welsh people strenously object to part
ing with it, From these premises the
reviewers conclusion is that London

size and must soon stop growing. Per-
