H LAND OF CANAAN
MECCA OF THE WORLDS FOURTH
SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.

Delegates From All Countries TO
Gather at Jerusalem How the
Journey VIII He Made From Amer
ica-Itinerary of the Trip.
What promises to be one of the most
notable religious events of recent years
is the meeting of the worlds fourth
Sunday school convention, which is to
be held at Jerusalem April Is, IL ana
20, where delegates from all Christian
lands will foregather.
From time immemorial Jerusalem has
beer the Mecca of religious pilgrims.
and rightly so, since it has beer the
seat of religious life and history. 10
many nations and races has ii given
the basis of their national faith. Ii Is
not to be marveled at, then, that the
Sunday school forces of the world turn
ed toward Jerusalem as the place for
their next convention. The conception
seems large, and the project is indeed
one of magnitude, but, rightly eonsld-
cred, it appears to be wholly practl-
cable, and the int Il which attaches
to the subject is IL most natural one.
The Sunday school organizations, OF
which the worlds convention is the
highest expression, number over 70,
100000 members. Representatives from
these bodies have gathered but three
times in the history of the organized
Sunday school work-the first time In
London in 1889, the second time in st.
Louis in 1893 and the third time IN
London again, in 1898.
1t was found that the only practl-
cable way of transporting the delegates
to the coming worlds convention was
through a chartered steamer. Accord
ingly the Grosser Kurfurst of the
North German Lloyd was engaged by
the central executive committee of the
worlds fourth Sunday school owen
ton, of which Mr.. e. X. Warren OF
Three Oaks, Mich, is chairman, to
leave New York March s. 1904, with a
delegation of about 800 members. The
steamer makes a cruise of the Medi-
terranean, returning to America May
IS. after having given the delegates a
choice of seventeen days in Palestine
and five days in Egypt or the reverse.
The foreign delegates, particularly
those from Great Britain, are to make
their pilgrimage on the Fuerst Bis
marck, sailing from Marseilles April
and returning April 80. the passengers
uniting in the convention in Jerusalem.
In the itinerary of the steamer only

CRUELTY TO THE CHILD.

them to cold. Cold is an enemy to the
young and the very old, and, far from
making a child healthy. leaving it's
arms and legs exposed undermines its
constitution. And, as for making a
child wear low socks on cold days, that
Is positive cruelty, while it is unhy-
gienic in the last degree.
Children require more rest than
grownups-ten hours out of the twenty
four is not Il bit too much. The old
proverb, early to bed and early to
RISE" should be enforced in more
households than it is.
The question of food is a very impor-
tant one. -Four meals a day are not too
many for a child ever up to the age of
fourteen. In winter the diet should be
conducting to warmth, such as oil
and fats, milk. eggs butter, etc, and
the carbohydrates - starch, sugar, ce-
reals, etc. An almost ideal food is milk,
because it combines all the above quail

ieur-de-lis, while in quaint lettering
was the well known line:
The quality of mercy is not strained.
A very good quotation for an amateur
photographer.
Cushions of red denim have en-
broidered over them the signatures of
prominent people copied.
Glove boxes are always pretty, but
a little hard to make, as they require
care and neatness in handling. They
are hand painted with Vatican fig
ures.
The practical girl embroiders during
the winter months white linen turn
over collars and cuffs in button stitch.
These will look very smart on her
white shirt waists neXt summer. She
even. if she is very ambitious, en-
broiders for herself a white linen dress,
robe patterns of which already stamped
may be purchased at any fancy work
