Bishop Potter in the course of g
southern ramble found himself in q
city where his personal appearance is
much less generally known than it is
in his own New York. Being for the
time off duty, as it were, he did not
think 1t necessary to appear at the
hotel breakfast table in the regulation
Episcopal garb, and the Afro-American
waiter, accustomed to seeing many OF
his military titled patrons wearing
black frock coats and ties, addressed
this newcomer as colonel"
I'm not a colonel" said the bishop.

Emerson's slight experiences as a
missionary are the subject of an arti-
Gle by Mr.. G. W. Cooke in the Chris
tan Register. 1t was in 1927 that the
gentle, reserved youth, then in feeble
health, was sent out by the Unitarian
association to preach in divers country
pulpits. 1t was work for which he
was Ill adapted, and he did not con-
tinue it long. 81 have been much dis
appointed" he wrote to his official SUI
perior, ''in being obliged to lead
vagrant life, as you know came hither
with different expectations and hoped
for leisure and retirement for study,
which needed much. But it would
not do for a missionary to be stif
necked, and so have been a shuttle"

Fnmou. Church Edifce.

Conservation services of the new por-
ton of Grace Episcopal church, at
Broadway and Tenth street, New York
city, have been announced for Novem-
Der. The church is one Of the most
famous in the country. Standing back
in its own beautiful garden, in one OF
the busiest parts Of Broadway, it is an
oasis in a desert OF steel framed sky
scrapers and brick and mortar ugli-
ness. The church has been In the
hands Of workmen for many months.
The improvements consist OF two new
buildings facing Fourth avenue and
the deepening of the chancel Of the
church proper. 1t was at first intend
ed to move the chancel wall to the
rear intact by means Of rollers, but
this was abandoned, and the wall is
being taken down, each piece marked,
and being relaid in its same relative
position. Strangers entering the church
number many thousands a month.

MODERN AIDS TO NovELIsTs
Manner In Which the Popular Writ
ers Collect Their Material.

Just as rapidly as the public de-
mands anything in large quantities ma
ture supplies the mechanism which
will crafty the want. At the present
time there is an Unsuitable market for
historical novels of all sorts and kinds.
When, therefore, the historical novelist
sketches out plot he would, if left to
himself, require several months of
hard study in some library In order to
obtain accurate material and local
color. Creative genius does not enjoy
research and investigation.
What he does, therefore, is to make
a plot or scenario of his story and
requisition for material. This will In
clude a description of the towns and
cities and the times wherein the story
is placed, pen pictures and anecdotes
of any historical characters introduced
into the piece and brief collection of
the sayings, jokes, poems and popular
songs Of the period. He then goes to
the libraries and interviews several
professional bookworms, who have
lately developed this work into rec
ognized industry. These patient pur-
veyors of information are known in
the libraries as "the shadows of the
novelists" who employ them. Their
work is pleasant, but monotonous.
Long practice has made them familiar
with the books, so that they know ex-
actly where to turn, which is nine
tenths of the battle.
One of them, middle aged but
bright eyed Daughter Of the Revolu-
ton, who has become a specialist in
this field Of work and calls herself "a
searcher for novellsts," showed me her
order book and chatted with me about
her work. "Mr. X, who is running a
serial story in Barker's Monthly, wants
ten jokes about General Israel Put
nam. sent him fifteen, from which he
will select ten. If had not done this,
he would have growled and declared
that any schoolboy could have got
these from a fifth reader" New York

AN IMPORTANT CAPTURE
Boston Slugger of Women Believed
to Be Under Arrest

Boston, Sept. BY the arrest yes
terday afternoon of John l.. Solder
quest, a Swede, janitor of the Natural
History rooms on Berkley street, the po-
lice believe they have at last captured
the man known as "Jack the Slugger,"
who has assaulted several women in
different localities in and about Boston
within the past few months.
The arrest was due to a complaint
made to the police by Miss Eva f.
Crockett of Brookline that she had
been assaulted at the Natural History
rooms on Saturday night and it is said
that Soderquest has been identified
by Miss jeanette Marshall of Brook
line as the man who made a savage
assault upon her in that town on the
night of Aug. 2.
Soderquest, who is married, com.
plains of trouble with his head and
denies all knowledge of the crimes
which are laid to him.

The king of Denmark is the most
democratic sovereign in Europe. He
hardly ever drives, but strolls about
the streets of Copenhagen, sometimes
with Prince Waldemar, very often
alone. One morning after breakfast
he determined to pay a quite unofficial
visit to his doctor. The servant maid
who opened the door failed to recog-
nize him and rather tartly told him
that her master was not at home to
patients at that hour.s
"Will you kindly tell your master"
was the reply, that the king particu-
larly wishes to see him?'
1.-The king cried the woman. Are
you the king"
"That is my title" answered his
majesty.
Heavens shrieked the woman.
What will my master say?" And,
quite losing her head, she shut the
door in the kings face and rushed
away to find the doctor. Fortunately
the latter had heard her cry and come
out at that moment. He found King
Christian on the doorstep, laughing at
his absurd reception.

WHOLESALE RESTAURANTS.
Places Where Small Eating Houses
Obtain Cooked Food.

Places Where Small Eating Houses
Obtain Cooked Food.
If it were asserted without any ex-
PLANTATION that there were restaurants
in New York which cooked large guam
titles of food day and night and yet
which never sold a mouthful to a per-
son within their doors, it would GER
tainly arouse doubt or ridicu1e. Yet
such is the fact. There are more than
forty establishments of this class in
New York. Their customers are not
hungry men, but restaurants, eating
booths, oyster stands and free lunch
counters. There was a time when ev-
cry place of this sort owned and used
its own kitchen, but the increase of
rents, the decrease in the size of store
property and the greater economy ne
cessitated by keen competition have
brought the wholesale restaurant into
existence and made 1t a financial sue
cess.
Most of these affairs are on the east
side and are managed by Germans,
Hebrews, Swiss and English, their
numbers being in the order named.
They supply roast beef, lamb, veal,
mutton, corn beef and pork, pot roasts,
baked and boiled fish, fried oysters,
clans, scallops, cells, fishballs and soft
shell crabs, boiled potatoes, cabbage,
turnips and beets.
few supply a larger bill of fare,
but the demand for their goods is COM
paratively limited They purchase
good, wholesome material, employ ex-
cellent cooks, own efficient delivery
wagons and run affairs upon a good
business basis.
When you pass an oyster stand and
see nicely fried oysters and soft shell
crabs neatly piled upon a platter and
decorated with little sprigs of parsley,
twice out of three times you look at
the wares of these establishments. The
tiny restaurants in the business dis
tricts, and especially those which cater
to clerks and workingmen, depend al
most entirely upon the wholesale res
taurants for their food. Oddly enough
they can sell their cooked food to the
retail restaurants for less than what
the latter would pay for the raw ma
terials. This comes from buying
wholesale In very large quantities, in
cooking ON a large scale and in utiliz-
ing all the waste products.-New York

T0O GREAT EXPENSE
Not the Reason.

If is not because Pyramid Pile Cure
is so expensive that many people de-
cline TO give it trial but because
they find it too great tax on their
credulity to believe that the publish
ed letters bearing testimony to the
merit of this remedy are genuine and
bona fiide; especially to those who have
realized the suffering incident to piles
is it incredible that any one who has
been afflicted twenty-five and thirty
wears with the worst forms of pro-
truding and bleeding piles should be
cured by the application of n simple
remedy when their physician has as
surcd them that the only relief Is in
surgical operation, This is rightfully
viewed with dread by all those afflict-
ed as it means at the least a great
shock to the nervous system, with
more than possibility of utter col
lapse and death; in the majority OF
cases, too, there is return of the COM
plaint, owing to the fact that the cause
is not removed,
The proprietors Of Pyramid Pile Cure
agree to forfeit one thousand dollars
to any one who will show n single
published testimonial TO be not genu-
inc and unsolicited; this latter feature
is most gratifying, inasmuch as these
letters are written solely out of graft
tude, and with the hope that those who
are afflicted as the writer's have been
may learn that relief Is at hand. at a
comparatively trhing expense. Pyra-
mid Pile Cure is for sale by druggists
at fifty cents a package, or will be
mailed by the makers to any address
