Has Stocking Room.

A Stocking room" has been built
and furnished in the National Bank
of Commerce of this city. It is
called the s'stocking room" because
it is place where woman may &c
to be alone and out of sight while
she takes from its secure hiding
place the money she wishes to de-
posit.
The room is beautifully furnished.
1t has an inlaid floor of different
colored woods, wainscoting of ma
hogany, the walls set with mirrors
and chiffonier in one corner with
combs, brushes, rouges and other
toilet articles but the most inter-
esting things in the room are three
mahogany stools, about twelve inches
high, with a leather cushion at the
top of each.
These stools are not intended to
be sat upon. There are chairs for
that purpose. The stools are for
women to put their feet upon while
they are taking out their money.
Next door to the stocking room is
the woman's main room, with desks
and chairs, and beyond that is
waiting room finished in mahogany.
William III. Winants, vice -presi-
dent of the bank, took the World
correspondent into the "stocking
room" to-day and showed him its
beauties and mysteries.
"Not many men will ever gee the
inside of this room," said Nr. Win
ants. at is sacred to the use of our
women clients. A colorcd maid will
always be in attendance in this suit
of rooms, and no man may enter its
portals during banking hours. have
seen the necessity of it ever since |
have been in the banking business. 1t
is fact that half the women who
come to this bank to deposit money
carry it either in their stockings or
on the bosoms of their dress. [ have
often had women come to my desk
and blushingly inform me that they
wished to deposit some money, but
would have to go into retirement in
order to produce it.
"Why | have seen women many
times 90 into one of these corners
and turn her back and peep all
aroud, then stoop down and gently
bring forth roll of bills. We de-
cided if women would carry their
money in such places we would make
it easy for them to abstract this or
replace it, so we originated the
stocking room. I predict that it will
soon be feature of all banks that
have private rooms for women
clients" kansas City Dispatch.

st. Paul expressed both his be-
lief In Purgatory and In the efficacy
of prayer for the dead when he
himself offered up prayer for his
departed friend, Onesiphorus, as
we read In I'd Tim. Is.
There Is no dispute as the prac-
tice of the primitive christians; they
prayed for the dead and made
memento for them In the daily
mass. The inscriptions on the
tombs and their writings, as we'll
as the ancient !iturgies, tell of their
belief In Purgatory. They, assured
ly, were true witnesses of Christ's
doctrine.
In conclusion Father Kress
urged his hearers to pray for their
departed ones saying this was the
only way In which their love could
be made to pass the barrier of the
grave.
Questions on nunneries and
on the origin of the name
"Catholic" were answered.
One ofthe questions ask of Father
Kress last evening was, "What was
the church named that Christ with
his apostles established on earth?"
The answer Is not so simple as IL
might appear. Many names are
given Christ's church and follow
ers of the New Testament. His
church is spoken of most frequently,
I believe, as the church simply.
Other forms occur: MY Church.
Kingdom of Heaven, Kingdom of
Cod, Church of First Born. Body
of Christ, seven times, Church of
Cod, Flock of Cod The Fold
His followers are named Christians
once, Sons of Cod and Children
of Cod fifteen times, Saints forty
nine times, My Brethren eight
times, Disciples seven times,
Children of the Resurrection
His People, and By many other
names.
What would you conclude from
this! That nothing more Is neces,
sary today than to adopt one of
these names and thereby proclaim
and prove your identity with the
primitive body of Christ's followers
Tonigh.:s lecture will be the last
of the series. It will be given In
the New Auditorium and the sub
will be "Why I am Catholic"
