of love and combat. There came nights

all the bending grasses and the broad

AS all things now preSaged the COM

the time when the little party, so long
companions upon the western trails,
must for the first time know division.
Du Mesne, making ready for the re-
turn trip over the unknown waterways
back to the lakes, as had been deter
mined to be necessary, spoke of it as
though the journey were but an affair
Of every day.

said he, that 1 shall ascend this river
of the Illini and reach Michiganon well
before the SHOWS. Once at the mission
of the Miamis, or the village at the
river Chicaqua, shall be quite safe
for the winter, il I decide not to go
farther on. Then, in the spring, ]

A teacher in our graded schools was
impressing upon the pupils in her class
the great value of the Atlantic cable
in bringing the different countries
closer together, keeping them In touch
with each other. thus promoting their
social and commercial relations. She
dwelt at length upon her explanation,
and when she had made her point very
clear, by way of summing up what she
had said, she asked the question, Now
how many can tell me what one thing

THE CHURCH OF CHRIST. :
Union Service At The Presby-
terrain Church Last
Evening

The good people of tn Presbyterian,
Baptist and Methodist denominations
did not mind the bitter cold weather
and icy streets last night and Ebraved
the winters chilly blast to attend
divine service at the Presbyterian
Church. A large congregation filed
the church and the singing was spirit
ed. Increased interest is being shown
at these meetings nightly.
Last nights service was opened by
the Presbyterian pastor, the Rev.
George S. Bell, who read the scripture
lesson from Isiah, bearing on the sub
ject assigned for the evening The
Church of Christ" The Rev. 7. E.
Peters, conducted the prayer service.
and the Rev. DR.. George W. Miller,
of the First NJ. E. Church, and the
Rev. I. P. Holloway, of the Baptist
Church, each made brief address per-
tinent to the subject. The greater
part of the service was then given over
to prayer by tine laity and singing by
the congregation.
Tonight the union service will be
held at the First NJ. E. Church, and
the subject will be "Social and Civic
Righteousness. . The public is ex-
tended cordial invitation TO be pres
emit at these services of the Week Of
Prayer.

To Obtain a Slim Waist.

Its nice to be plump, but to be plump
in the wrong place is misery. French
women, though they get quite redund-
ant, have their redundance located
properly, owing to the training OF
their figures from girlhood The best
thing for a woman to do when she has
Flowed her form to get out of form"
is to regain it by taking gymnasium
training of some kind-fencing, or
clubs, or dumb-bells. In the modern
gymnasium there is such an apparatus
for the waist; two great ropes from
the ceiling terminate in a pair OF pad
led metal rings. into which you slip
your arms, and then, posing your toes
permanently for the time being with
in the central disc on the floor, you
swing yourself round and round in a
circle, making your toes the pivot. 1t

animal jewelry can scarcely be ac-

Some OF the really beautiful pieces OF

nouveau designs of tinted gold and
enamel with precious or semi-precious
stones introduced. The stones are
added to contribute to the effect of
the whole. and not merely for glitter
and display. The turquoise, opal and
emerald matrix are much in vogue
and compose some handsomely sch
brooches and belt pins. Baroque
pearls appear in all sorts of jewelry.

THIRTY FIREMEN OVERCOME
Fire Was in n Sub-CeIIar Where
Liquors and Cigars Were
Stored.

New York June i3.-Thirty firemen
were temporarily overcome by tobacco
smoke and the fumes from alcohol
early Sunday, while fighting fire in
Holt's cafe on Broadway. The fire
was confined to the sub-cellar, in
which liquors and cigars were stored,
and the funes and the dense smoke
from the burning cigars hindered the
ilremen to such an extent that they
were compelled to work in two minute
relays. During the fire an ambulance
surgeon was stationed near by to care
for the firemen, whose eyes caused
them intense pain after each rush into
the smoke. The damage to the res
taurant was 100000. The upper floors
of the building were occupied by
wholesale milliners, and the loss on
their stock, which was practically
ruined by the smoke, is also placed at
100000.
Another early morning fire in the
wash house and storage houses of the
Jacob Hoffman Brewing Co. in East
Fifty-fifth street caused loss estimat-
cd at 100000
