During the year there were 259 mis-

work the whole year and 143 a portion OF
it. The home department. work has been

made to the number Of FOG, 744. This was
$500 more than in the previous year.
Twenty three thousand and twenty EIGHT
sermons and addresses were delivered and
1886 copies of the Word of God dis
tributed. One hundred and seven churches
of different denominati lions were organ
lied as the outcome Of our schools, in
addition to which large number of for

preaching re-established IN them. Not
only SO, but regular preaching has been
secured in many communities where
churches have not been organized.
These abundant results Of our mission

evidence of a solid and substantial prog

I REGRETTED TO LET HIM 60
Leave Taking Of Rev. w. y. Mitchell ant
His Former Charue,

fOIHCI' AI1dF0Ss
The leave taking Of Rev. w. j. Mitch
ell. now of the House Of Faith Presbyter-
ian church of this city, from his former
charge at Princetown, N. Y, is interest
ingly recounted in the Daily Union Of
Schenectady, N. Y. Not the least inter-
esting feature of the farewell reception
rendered Mr.. Mitchell was the presenta-
ton to Mr. Mitchell bys the congregation
of a handsome gold watch and chain. It
was given as a token Of esteem and Of the
appreciation on the part Of the people Of
the very excellent work done by Mr..
at Princetown. Mr.. Mitchell ex-
pressed his gratitude not only for the
gift but for the love that prompted it and
spoke feelingly of his regret at leaving a.
church in which he had become so greatly
interested. He closed with parting word
for those whom he had led into the
church. Rev. J. B. Crawford, pastor of a,
neighboring church, congratulated Mr..
Mitchell and the church upon the effec-
tive work so tremendously done by them.
Tn its account Of the reception the Daily
Union says: : Tt is with much regret and
sorrow that the members of the congrega
ton release Mr.. Mitchell from the ties
that bound him here, that he may enter
into work where there are greater oppor-
tunities for usefulness. z.
During his sojourn in Princeton en-
couraging progress has been made along
many lines, especially in the Y. p. S.. C. E.,
where, as president, he has introduced
new methods that have proved very sue
cessful."

The cherries are often served at a
luncheon treated thus: Hold the
cherries by their stems and dip them
into the white of an egg and then
into powdered sugar Pile them up
on a fiat glass dish and ornament
the edge of the dish with cherry
leaves.
A celebrated New England house
wifes way of making cnerry pudding
is thus: Line dish with thin clices
of buttered toast. Fill the dish with
part pftted cherries; putting them
cosely together in layers and sprink-
ing each layer with sugar. Bake half
an hour and let it become perfectly
cold before serving it with rich
cream. This is fine dessert.
Spiced cherries make fine relish to
serve with meats. To four pounds
of fruit add two pounds of granulat-
ed sugar and one pint of vinegar. Tie
a few spices in a muslin bag and put
with the fruit. Let the fruit simmer
uncovered until the juice is a semi

DRESS HIGH FOR EAT FACE.

| A round face inclined to be oyerfat
should have the hair dressed as high
as possible and moderately pulled out
at the sides. A large square face may
have the hair dressed on the crown
of the head, provided the face is not
too long. 1t should be well pulled
out at the sides. A round, short face
must have the hair dressed high, and
an abnormally fat, broad face should
have the hair dressed as high as pos
slple and only slightly pulled at the
sides.
The woman who is seeking for the
proper and effective way of dressing
her hair should make many expert
ments. 1t is not until she has tried
carefully the different modes that she
will be able to pick the one which is
| becoming. No matter what the shape
of her face may be there is one mode
which will suit it best, and to that
mode she should cling, having found
| it.
For the plain girl the question of
hairdressing Is of the utmost impor-
lance If her hair is not becomingly
dressed it will not matter how becom-
ingly she may be dressed. Expendi-
ture of time and money on dress will
be thrown away unless it be accom-
panied with painstaking and tasteful
hair dressing The plain girl who
wants to make the most of her attrac-
tons must be absolute in her indie
pendence of fashions. So far as her
couture is concerned she must be alb
solutely her own mistress. Unless she
is sure in her own mind that the pre-
vailing style will suit her best she
must discard it and pay no attention
to the mode set by fashion.
When, as is so frequently the case,
the mode has been designed to set off
the attractions of some great beauty
the plain girl must fall back on one of
styles which have passed,
or she must be brave enough to take
the prevailing style and adapt it to
her own needs.
The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1903-07-04
NEATNESS is ABSOLUTELY. ES
SENTIAL

That all women who wish to be con
sidered good dressers must be neat
goes without saying. The plain girl
especially must be neat A wisp OF
hair out of place, which may only en-
nance the beauty of pretty girl, be.
comes untidiness when seen on a
plain one.
AS with the plain girl so with the
street woman. She must look with a
careful eye to her hairdressing The
mode she will choose for her couture
depends somewhat on what is or what
is not the fashion, but that cannot be
allowed to dictate. The fashion must
be modified to suit if it does not. She
should dress her tresses so as to in
crease her apparent height.
Breadth should not be aimed at I'M
less the face is, as sometimes happens
with stout women. extremely long and
narrow with a forehead of great
height but exceeding narrowness.
Taking the opposite type, the thin
girl finds herself obliged to pay at
tention at once to her type of face
and to her height. When the thin
girl has round face, as sometimes
happens, the hair should be dressed
high With thin face broad dress
ing is the most becoming.
The French say: IF you are well
gloved, well shod and 'bien coffee
you are well dressed. The English
speaking experts leave off the first
two requirements. The hair dressing
puts the gloves, the shoes and the
dress into insignificance.

AS for the tips, they will really
grow smaller if let alone, but letting
them alone is difficult The corners
of the nails should be allowed to grow
out, as they support the flesh at the
sides of the finger, and if these cor
ners can be left undisturbed the fin
gers will really begin to grow taper.
AS soon as you cut the sides of the
nails you rob the finger tips of their
support and the flesh begins to sag
down, and this makes the finger tips
coarse and chubby. The nails can be
worn pointed, if you please, but you
must not shave the corners down
close or you will certainly make the
ends of your fingers large and knobby.
