A Wonderful Place.

A peculiar element which has made
Atlantic City famous is that its beauties,
it's delights. it's charms are extolled and
lauded everywhere by its ardent ad-
m!rers.
1t can be truthfully said that no re-
sort has similar attractions and fasci-
nations. The beach, broad and level
and several miles in length, presents a
grand sight at the height of the season.
AT the bathing hour thousands upon
thousands enjoy the surf. innumerabe
sun chairs for onlookers skirt the
crowd, and ponies and donkeys laden
with children are seampering close to
the waters edge.
The boardwalk, the piers, the band
concerts the sailing and the thousand
and one social enjoymcnts contribute to
this wonderful and interesting beach
resort. What is fast becoming the popu-
lar route to Atlantic City is the Jersey
Central, with it's double daily three
hour service from New York. The trains
are models OF convenience, equipped
With vestibuied coaches and parlor cars

THE UNIvERSALlST
CONCEPTION OF, GOD
Sermon Of Rev. Thomas B. Payne in
All Souls Universalist Church
Last Night.

Interest Is increasing and the con-
gregations are growing at All Souls
Universalist church, the only represent
tative of the liberal faith in Scranton.
Large congregations were present yes
terday, both morning and evening,
| again to listen to the helpful sermons
of the pastor, Rev. Thomas B. Payne,
who spoke in the morning on "Giving
What We Have" and in the evening
on "rhe Universalist Conception Of
God" For his evening text, Mr. Payne
took the opening words of the Lords
Prayer" Our Father which are in
heaven He said, in part:
We lay it down a proposition that cannot
be disputed successfully that the Fathcrhood of
God is at once the center and circumference
OF the teachings Of our Lord and Master Jesus
Christ. Anything presented by men his truth
that conflicts with what an infinitely good, wise,
loving and powerful Father must do, is outside
OF what Jesus taught. II Universalists reject
many things taught by other churches, it is be-
cause we believe completely and profoundly
what Jesus taught concerning the Father
The crilcst conception Of God is found in the
| Indians Great Spirit" The loftiest conception
| OF God is found in Jesus ''),ir Father" Between
these two conceptions OF God have been de-
vcloped many others. not erroneous, simply in.

Universalists believe sour Father is Judge
in His moral universe. No man can escape his
judgments. No man escape his punishn'ents.
But "Our Father" does not punish arbitrarily,
nor vindictvely, but in love to reclaim.
We believe "Our Father is pure spirit, with.

II Is very seldom that man and
woman who have been married and
then divorced, ever gather up the tan
sled threads or their love and become
married again. Theater-goers saw "a

pressivc and touching thing 1t Is.
Such ali incident was witnessed in
real lie on Saturday afternoon In
Magistrate Howe's Office, when Mar
garet Barry aud John McCowan were
united in marriage for the second time.
They were married in Carbondalc six
teen years ago, but were divorced in

She frankly admitted to the alderman

the time and expressed the hope that

real happiness than her first.

At irregular intervals the passion for
braiding horSehair rings sweeps over
a neighborhood. Unlike most amnse-
ments of boys, it seems to have no set
season for making its appearance. AT
its coming all games are abandoned,
the boys sit il rows along the curb
stones or conveniently fat fence and
manufacture rings by scores. Every
horse unfortunate enough to pass
through neigbborhood so engaged is
immediately set upon and must pay a

The first step in making any of the
different braidS is shown in the strands
surrounding the entire illustration. The
loop A must be fitted TO the nnger for
which the ring is intended. Figure ]
explains the first ring l shall describe.
The braid consists only a series of
knots similar to the one shown in the
illustration. Somewhat approaching
this is Figure :. but the braid is
trite simpler; il is made by successive

This is done by dipping the pear in a

IN THE TWILIGHT.

In the days that are gone forever
You have welcomed the twilight dim,
And watched for the stars faint cleaning
Far down the horizons rim.
Then your heart was so gay and happy
In the soft and tender glow,
That it reveled in all the fancies
That care-free life can know.
You have sung with the gushing gladness
OF heart unused to pain.
With never a note of sadness
To burden life's sweet refrain
With the blessed home ties unbro)Ien,
With the voices you love so near,
No gathering gloom could darken
The Joy that shone bright and clear.
But to-day, as the shadows gather.
Your heart with its grief is sore.
As you long for the sound OF voices
That are heard on earth no more.
In the quiet and rest of twilight.
All the grief of the bygone years
Comes back, till the heart o erburdened
Is numb with the weight of tears.
But the twihghts of life are fading
Into heavens unclouded day.
Where await us the JOY and gladness.
That earth'S sorrow has swept away.
Oh to sing with heart unTettered
BY thought OF pain or woe,
Oh to find in the realms of glory
The loved ones OF long ago!
