What Long Prayers DID,


The tnoubles that too long prayers
can cause are emph hasized BY recent
happenings in the First Congregation
al church at Braddock Pa, a lead
ing member, who was active in the
erection OF the congregations hsEs ed
ifice, was addicted to the habit OF long
prayers. Other maembers thought they
. ere not getting a fadr show and
voiced this complaint to their pastor.
The pastor, Rev. Clarence Greeley, a
nephew OF Horace Greeley thought so,
Goos and promised to see aboat it. He
labored with the long Winded brother
and asked him to cut his prayers
shorter, il possible. The praying
member retorted BY asking his pastor

Joshua L. Bailey OF Phlladelphi,
presid' at of the National Temperance
societsf>of Friends, says that there is
IN appalling increase Of inebriety
among women. Recently, he says, the
principal of fashionable young la
dies seminary in counseling her pu-
pills to avoid extremes, declared that
1t was just as vulgar to be total alb
staiEer as it was to drink to excess
that one was an indication Of a weak
character as much as the other And
what, asks Mr. Bailey. can be ex-
pected as the result Of such tuition
when these young girls enter fashion
able society? ' s..2~.
1ntemperance among fashionable
women is much more observable, even
in Philadelphia, than it was some
years ago. In New York a social lead
er, who refused to allow her name to
, be used because of her family con-
nections and her personal relations to
the "400." says that the drinking evil
among women of the highest circles
It is nothing unusual, she declares
to see in leading hotels and cafes
beautiful and handsomely dressed
women Of Fifth avenue absolutely
pouring down cocktails and other
mixed drinks. Nor is New York the
only American city where such condi-
tions exist. Workers of the w. c.. T.
U. Of Chicago report finding hundreds
Of women drinking in the saloons at
all hours Of the night. +
The increased use Of liquor among
women is a sad but generally admit
: led fact in Great Britain. DR. Hay
wood Smith, the noted English spe-
cialist, furnishes facts and figures to
prove that British women are drift
ing toward inebriety. He asserts that
the vice is increasing with greater
rapidity among the rich and well to

hands of King Henry Will, or an Ivan
the Terrible, might have been looked
upon as a disaster, and vet the reign
Of either monarch is regarded from a
political view, as successful; from an
individual view as despotic. Fortunate
{ ~ civilization and the twentieth CEN
tury have made it impossible for such
monarchs to exist. Absolute power in
the hands Of Alexander IT,, the auto
crat of all the Russias, the world
knows, has been a blessing, for he had
the possibility to free 25,000, 900 slaves
with one stroke OF the pen, and not
only free them, but endow every one OF
them with piece Of land. Do you
think he could have done so, or that
the mobiles would have permitted him.

it solved! Through a civil war which

of which are still in existence r y
Let US go further back in Russian
history to the reign of Peter the Great.
Nobody can dispute what this auto
cratic czar has done for his country
Could he have changed the history of
Russia as it seems to us now, in one
moment? Gould he have reformed a
people who were on so low a grade of
civilization that they called him the
& "Anti-Christ" and looked upon his
great work as the lend Of the world
If he had not had absolute power
to do so? And still further-Would

the time had not been autocrats? The

Swopped Cotton for Bacon.


A thrifty and far-sighted farmer
bantered an Americas merchant yes
terday to swap off bacon for cotton
pound for pound, the meat to be de-
livered during the year and: the cotton
to be handed over next fall, says a
Georgia newspaper. But the grocer
smiled a take-me-for- damned fool
smile and declined. Last spring he was
picked up by this same very gentle and
unsophisticated farmer, and while. It
was a good trade for both, the pork
peddler will stay out of the game this
year. They traded then ON a pound
for-pound basis, and while cotton
stayed at 10 cents and above the far
mer steadily sold his crop ana pocket
led the coin. His meat bill was not
then due. It was paid later with Scent
cotton. One OF his neighbors, who
made a similar trade with local mer-
chant, got scared and settled when
cotton was at II cents, fearing that it
was going to Is cents. Meat is now
worth 10 cents at retail and cotton
only eight cents. Next fall the price
OF cotton may be much less, hence the
unwillingness Of the local merchant to
swap his 10-cent meat for, cotton which
may bring him only five cents. sa s#
