Berlin. Jan The first church
building to be erected In this place will
be dedicated Sunday by the congre-
gationalists. Berlin has no church or
ganization, even tho building is to
be dedicated. Religious services have
heen held at private homes foI some
time and Union Sunday school has
been conducted in a small building.
The building of the new church was
due largely to the efforts of Rev. O..
o. Smith. of Grlnnel!, state Sunday
school missionary for the Congrega-
tional church. who established the
union school here. The religious peo-
pie of the town are very much inter-
ested in the work, and it is thought
that church society win soon be
formed

Arundel was once a prosperous sea-
port. In the time Of the Fitzalan earls
1t was a kind of little Portsmouth and
one of the southern gates Of the king
dom. The earl, who fought at Crecy.
was thus able to land his prisoners and
his loot at his own door. BY the way,
1t was out Of the ransom obtained for
these prisoners that the original great
hall at Arundel Castle is said to have
been built. Arundel in those days
looked upon piracy with lenient eye.
unless the pirates happened to be
aliens, when retribution sudden and
severe fell upon them, Later in the
centuries 1t was a nest of smugglers.
Indeed, 1t is scarce fifty years ago that
a cargo Of contraband was successfully
landed close by.
The particular "Smuggler Bill" who
ran it came in the guise of n peaceful
collier captain, and when the coast
guard boarded him at the river mouth
a well-planned squabble with the cab
in boy about his light refreshments
threw him off the scent. A regular pi-
lot worked the vessel up the Arun, but
at Ford, where the water was slack,
the captain himself took a turn at the
wheel and accidentally ran her
aground. AS she could not float again
till next high tide the pilot went home
for the night and by the time he re-
turned next morning the "stuff" was
safe ashore. He noticed that the yes
sci was higher in the water, but he
could prove nothing, though he sus-
pected much. The clever captain had
outwitted the ustoms.-London Tat.

ing at window openings in an upper
story, as indicated in the drawing.
Each pair of cables supporting the
platform sections passes over two
sheaves in the horizontal member OF
a bracket and are held by clamp in
side the building. The platform may
be raised or lowered by means Of a
block and tackle attached to the ca
bIes and may be held at any height
convenient for the work. The platforms
have solid floors, preventing the drop
ping of materials and an outside guard
rail insuring the safety Of the men.
Preferably the sections are placed to
abut, so as to form n continuous stag
ing along n whole side or clear around
the building, so that the work may be
completely finished to any given level
before raising the scaffold. Other adj
vantages of this scaffold besides those
indicated are that the sidewalk and
the portions of the building below it
are not obstructed and the work below
may be left completely finished In
stead of having put-log holes to be
filed afterward.

CLEANSING HAIR BRUSHES.

Good hair brushes are costly Items,
and way to keep the bristles stiff and
clean for years is worth knowing. A
Russian coiffeur gives this recipe;
Have ready two basins; put a lump
Of soda the size of walnut in one and
three parts ill it with boiling water;
the other basin should be three parts
filled with water as cold as you can
get it, to which you have added suf-
fcient lemon juice or good white vim
egar to give it a noticeably acid taste.
Shake the bristles Of the brush well
up and down in the boiling water till
they are clean, then at once rinse
them thoroughly in the cold water and
stand them up to dry in the air or in
a warm place, but not too near the fire.
OF course, the backs Of the brushes
must not be wetted.

BUILT BY WOMEN.

The recently dedicated Christian
Church, at Muncie, Ind, was built
chiefly by the hands of women. They
carried the hods, brought the water,
mixed the mortar and helped to lay
the foundation Of the little chapel
There was little money with which to
construct the building so greatly need
ed, the parishioners being poor, the
men Of the congregation being COM
PEELED to labor for living, so the wo-
men volunteered. All summer long in
the hot sun and into the fall they
toiled and now their hopes are realized,
The leaders Of the work were Mrs,

The day of the old-fashioned wood,

is rapidly passing, at least on large

Instead Of the once familiar staging
of slender wooden posts, X-braced
with boards, with its put-logs and
loose board platforms, several forms
of working stages have come into use
which can be more rapidly erected and
removed, are safer and more economi-
cal, and have other advantages. A

ticularly for use in the facing Of high

WOMEN BOOKSELLERS.

Curio shops are largely in the hands
of women, but though women writer S
Of books are legion, women sellers If
books are conscicuous by their rb-
sence. Has the trade Of the booksell-
err no charm for women?
1t has been suggested and With np.
parent reason, that a charming wo-
man, with delicacy of feeling and tact,
might establish a book shop IN any
fashionable thoroughfare and Gttract
to 1t all the most famous and f'lshion-
able people of the day, making it, in
fact, something of salon.
OF course, special personal Cualifica-
tons would be necessary, and probab-
ly they are not often found IN the wo-
man possessing the requisite capital.
Still, that is no matter, for the open
ing is for one, not for tho many, and
that one would probably be that rara
avis, the business wonlhn who finds
/ err work entirely 10 her mind and a
real pleasure. Establishments some
thing on this order are flourishlng in
England, having grown from modest
little shops for tie sale and exchange
of books to widely known places where
one may revel in rpre volumes and an
tique furniture.

A recent bulletin by the Tennessee
station treats upon the Relative Value
Of Protein in Cotton-Seed Meal, Cow.
pea Hay and Wheat Bran" We will
enumerate the conclusion Of the ex.
pertinent.
Cottonseed meal is one Of the richest
of protein foods, but 1t must be fed
sparingly, as 1t has a tendency to pro-
duce nervous arrangement Of the cows
system.
Only about half as much food is
consumed in making a gallon Of milk
as in making a pound of butter.
The smallest amount of roughage
consumed in making a pound Of but
ter was 43.S pounds, in which thirteen
pounds Of cowpea hay was substituted
for four pounds of cottonseed meal.
This was with a group Of three cows.
The highest amount of concentrates
consumed for a pound of butter was
by group 1, which took 90 pounds, or
80 pounds more than group 3, and o.
pounds more than group 2.
This shows that the substitution OF
pea hay for wheat bran in group 2, and
for cottonseed meal in group 3 greatly
reduced the cost Of concentrates.
It was proved by this experiment
that one and quarter pounds OF
chopped cowpea hay was equal to one
pound of bran, and three pounds OF
the chopped pea hay was equal to one
pound Of cottonseed meal.

WINTER BLUE.

In spite Of the usual autumnal pre-.
objection for browns, myrtle green and
plum color, there can be nc shadow Of
doubt that the novelty so far is in I'M
ported robes Of the brilliant shade
properly called winter blue. These
must not be COMPOUNDED with navy
blue or the duller shades of that popu-
lar color.
Winter blues are clear and bright. No
one can say of them that is a gray blue
or a dingy purpled-blue.
Winter blue is blue, and it is bright.
Just what is desired for a long-coated
two-piece suit for out Of doors,
