Women and Men In Lent,

There Is always great work for wo- men in connection with the respective charity and benevolent organizations of the various churches, in even a rich and prosperous city like Birmingham, and as concerns women of society Lent gives them wider opportunities for such prise- worthy endeavors," said layman yester- day.
 Society has quit its business of pleas ure-seeklng in the forms of dances, re- captions and general merriment, for such indulgences are not customary during Lent iE any large community, no mat ter what may be held as individual views or lack of views respecting any religious creed or doagma. Therefore those fair women whose duty 1t is to make the world brighter and happier during social seasons are temporarily relieved of such delightful obligations. and so they have much more time to devote to charity in its various forms. Every woman belongs to some church, and every church has some kind of an organization for doing material good In practical forms, and next to the church itself these church charities and benevolent societies do more human good to humanity at large than any other agency or combination of agencies in existence.
 'The women of these pious societies are ministerng angels, as thousands of afflicted, sorrow -burdened, poverty-la- dened souls the world over can bear wit ness. My own duties bring to me the information that the pressure for aid on church societies of Birmingham Is al- ways heavy. The women-God bless them! constantly find more charitable and benevolent work to do than they have money for its execution. And so 1t comes to this. that every man should give 1iberally according to his means to the fair women of the church, and other charitable societies during Lent Everybody can give something. and the women have use for every penny they can get.
 This much Is especially and emphati- cally true of that noble institution found ed by noble women's unselfsh efforts at East Lake, the Industrial Home, builded for destitute and wayward boys! That institution appeals with unanswerable force and pathos to the charity, to the hearts, of all men and women. It is a very human cry, and assuredly humane people will not suffer 1t to pass un- heededn'

Fruit Not Damaqed.
From The Huntsville Mercury.

From The Huntsville Mercury.
 The fruit growers are congratulating themselves over the present cold snap, as it means a greater degree of protec- tion to their crops. Had 1t been a week longer In coming there is no doubt but the caops would hve been injured to a considerable degree. especially the peach crop, as the planters report that the buds had already commenced swelling, which if continued a couple of weeks, at the most, would have rendered them so sus- ceptible to the cold weather as they would have been in a more advanced stage. The swelling of the buds has been stopped and the crops are set back to a safer period of the year.
 The temperature here last night was 22 degrees above zero. Under most cir cumstances the freeze of the past three nights would no doubt have proved fatal ao the crops.
 During the past week the people have experienced the coldest weather they have felt in two winters, and indications are that the present cold snap will last for several days yet. Instead of inturins the trees, the opinion is that the cold weather has been the best thing for the crop that has happened in years. :.
