TIE OLYMPlAN GAMES.


Chicago, June 3o.-A gathering OF
representatives Of the many religions
and creeds Of the world, which will
rival the congress Of religions Of the
worlds fair, is planned for the
Olympian games in 1904 by Bishop
Fallows, chairman Of the COMMITTEES
on ethical and religious organiza-
lions. The religious feature Of the
games will be organized on the same
broad lines as the games themselves
have been planned. Every country
that Is invited TO send it, athletic
representatives will be urged TO have
it, religions represented - well.
Following the idea that ell the games

origin in religious worship In an
cient times, this committee will en-
deavor to show that the connection
has not been lost in late years. 1t
is held that the temperance and self
denial exacted Of candidates for
modern sports Of all kinds is closely
allied to the principles Of self-con-
troll which are thought as part Of
every creed In civilized lands and
that athletics and religion work to-
gether towards forming a race OF
perfect human beings. The six Sun
days included in the time occupied
by the games will be devoted to tho
demonstration Of this idea.
Bishop Fallows was prominently
connected with the worlds fair con-
gress Of religions and he Is planning
to make the religious and ethical
feature Of the 0lympian games sue
cessful one.

PAINE'S CELERY

Does a Wondrous Work for a

It Is we'll known that terrible rheu'

more helplessuess, acute suffering
and agony, than any Of the other
diseases that afiiict humanity. The
great medicinal virtues Of Paines
Celery Compound make it the only
Trustworthy specific for The cure OF
all forms Of rheumatism aud neu'
rslqis. Thousands Of strong testl'
monial letters from the most promi'

Paine's Celery Compound has ban
ishsd these terribly fatal troubles when
all other treatment has failed. Mrs.
Margaret Bethel, Of Brainerd, Mlnn''
after thirty years Of agonizing tor

it was the will Of heaven; she almost
prayed for the time to lay 1t down.
Heaven directed, she made use Of

joying true life once more. She says
"For thirty years have been .

WELCOMED THEN home.
1mporia Elks Extended the Glad.
Hand 70 Bridal Couple.

Emporia Gazette: Mr.. and Mrs.
Alfred B. Roberts returned from their
wedding trip at 2:2O this morning
and were met at the depot by crowd
Of Mr.. Roberts Elk friends, who gave
him loud and enthusiastic welcome.
The Robertsss tried to evade the
gang, but the Elks' system was too
strong. Every Elk and Elkess who
have gone out Of the town on we'd
ding trip or who have been married
out Of town have been given a rousing
welcome ct the depot when they re.
turned. All Roberts has always hg.
ured conspicuously 10 these recep.
tions. He made the rash boast that
the Elks could not catch him and his
bride when they returned from their
wedding trip. He also wrote taunt-
ing letters to the Elks about their
"Little German band" while be was
on bis trip. For these and other rea-
sons the warmest reception that had
ever met newly married couple
at the depot had been arranged for
him when he returned.
The Elks heard yesterday morning
that he was in Abilene and would DO
here last night so every precaution
was taken that be should not get here
without their knowing it. His house
at 9fS Merchant street was elaborate.
ty decorated inside aud out with
big, red hearts, signs, and bunting,
and the yard and parking was draped
with red, blue and yellow bunting.
Later in the evening message from
Abilene said Mr.. and Mrs. Roberts
had left there for Lost Springs where
they would change cars for Peabody
and would arrive at Emporia at 2:9O
this morning, About twenty Elks
we're lined up on both sides CT the
train and when they attempted to
get off Of the south side Of the train
they were caught and put in the big
railroad bus aud hauled all over to wn
for two hours. They were taken to
the homes OF all Of bis kin here and
very informal reception was held at
each place. The Kin were with the
Elks until yesterday when they went
back on the boys and had to listen to
the band as q result. After showing
them the decorations on their home
on Merchant street they were taken
to the home OF Mrs, Roberts on west
Twelfth avenue.
On the roof Of the couples new
home was printed in big letters, ~.
G. 7. Headquarters" Over the front
door was written 1.-TWO hearts but
with single thought"
On a side door was a skull and
cross bones with a "welcome" sign
attached. On a front window, "Don't
call today" "Just married, Alfe and
me, 0! N.Y." gave warning to corners.
The Elks today are tickled. They
got ahead OF All Roberts.

profession, and always encourages them to do so, for, after several years expe- rience, she considers 1t easy, profitable and interesting. Evidently. however, the realm of patent law is too dry to at- tract women. It requires advanced tech nical knowledge in the one who practices 1t, and thorough acquaintance with me- chanical drawing. Miss Griswold began as a draughtswoman in the office of friend. After serving three years ap- premiership in this office she opened one of her own
 Patent soliciting is an uneven busi- ness, in which long periods of idleness alternate with "blg jobs" But when 1t Is known that Miss Griswold has some times made as high as 5000 In a single month. 1t will be seen that this profess sion has profits far In advance of those generally gained by women. Although Americans are supposed to be so much more liberal in all matters connected with women. it Is curious fact that three-fourths of Miss Griswolds business has come from foreigners. She has also made a speciality of copyright and trade mark law, and Is an authority on both subjects. having published very useful little brochure on the former.
 Miss Griswold is so young and attract i've that those who have heard of her achievements in such abstruse subjects are apt to see her first with a shock of surprise. She relieves the confinement of office life and keeps herself In splendid and she ascribes her power of concen- trated and prolonged effort largely to the simple, comfortable, hygienic, but at the same time artistic mode of dress which she evolved for herself, and to which she has always strictly adhered.
