CHURCH MIGHT PROBABLY ADOPT LODGE PLANS.
BYE. NJ. MANN.

In my church work 1 have been where we
have had our full share Of poor members whom
the deacons looked after faithfully according to
their lights and traditions. But some there were
who, it seemed to me, while not unduly sensitive
and evidently needy, utterly refused to receive aid
from the church because it was regarded as
charity and not as a right. And this view the
recipients of aid seemed to fall in with by de-

More than 100000 names are now
on the pension roll of the United
States, the exact number being 1,000,-
7S1, an increase of 3,7S1 since June 30.
From present indications it will be en-
Iarged further as a result of the opera
tons of order No. IS, which is adding
thousands of veterans who previously
were ineligible. One marked effect Of
the rule providing for old age pensions
is the decrease in the work Of the pen
sion bureau. 1t is estimated that about
800 clerks soon will be dismissed by
the Pension Commissioner.

TO TEST MAD STONE.
Newton Man Sends Specimen to
Historical Musium.

The state OF Iowa offers to scientists
an opportunity TO determine the ae'
tual value OF mad stone.
A very fine sample OF this marvel
Gus remedial agency is now In the
state historical museum. The owner,
who has loaned II TO the state for q
short time, is himself DESTROYS that
some responsible and reputable city
physician in Iowa demonstrate for his
own and the satisfaction Of the people
whether the mad stone Is as effective
az the owner claims II 10.
The stone Is owned by ,. u. Bennett
OF Newton. II was taken from the
stomach OF a deer killed In Douglas
county, Ore, about the year 1900. The
owner claims that II has effected cures
but he earnestly wishes the state 70
allow II 10 be known That the stone
may be used in cases Of hydrophobia
II under the direction Of a competent
and responsible city physician, 80
that the results may never be callea
into question.
Mr.. Bennett regards the stone az
of the value Of several hundred dol
lars. Ee Is confident OF It's powers
and declares that II has been tested
time and time again. AS the season
for rabies Is coming on apace, It II
regarded as an excellent chance for
the people OF the state to become In
formed on the subject.
Mr.. White, OF oskaloosa, also owns
a fine specimen Of mad stone and IN
value In cases Of hydrophobia has
been proven on several occasions.

What They Might Have Done.

A good story is told Of two young
Englishmen travelling in Europe. They
had never thoroughly mastered any of
the languages commonly spoken on the
continent and were particularly weak
In their French, knowing that language
well enough by sight, but not having a
speaking acquaintance with it.
Finding themselves in small French
town one evening, they were DESTROYS
Of obtaining a good cup Of coffee.
Knowing that cafe was coffee and that
lait was milk, they endeavored to call
for judicious mixture Of the two. but
their articulation was Of so remarkable
an order that they succeeded only in
getting the coffee. Cafe All late they
tried without success. Then du lay-it
was attempted unavailingly. The sug-
gestion that lait might be pronounced
Eight" was adopted equally in vain.
Finally in despair one of the strug-
CLING youths exclaimed:
"Well, it's mighty queer we don't
know enough to get a little drop of
milk"
DO you want milk?" asked the
waitress, opening her mouth for the
first time
"Y-yes," stammered the travellers
overwhelmed with surprise.
'"Then why didn't you say so at
f1rst?" queried the girl as she flounced
off.
And again the young men didn't

SOFT CHEESES.
Dairy Experts Tell of q Growing
Market For Them.

Dairy Experts Tell of a Growing
Market For Them.
AR Indication of the growing popu
aarity Of soft cheeses is the large de
nand for the varieties sold under vari-
GUS brands as Neufchatel and cream
cheese. The basis for most of these
is the common cottage" or dutch"
cheese, and many of them are merely
sweet or sour curd put in an attractive
and appetizing form. The manufacture
of these varieties is comparatively sim
sple, with practically no danger Of loss.
They ara sold and eaten when fresh.
Further, they will yield larger
amount Of salable cheese from the
same quantity of milk than other vari-
cites, and they bring prices almost as
high as the best imported cheese.
Very naturally these cheeses form
the basis Of a profitable industry. But
here, too, we find that the common
American product is different from the
cheese in Europe going under the same
name. The Neufchatel cheese Of Eu-
rope is a ripened cheese, but the cheese
going by this name in the United
States is usually unripened curd with
an attractive wrapping Some Of these
American products, however, are high

certain ripened types that are import
ed. ALI of them command far higher

OF the hard types of cheese is exceed

cents or more per pound) are so much
higher than the prices of the hard

The fact that soft cheese will not

A CITY OF LIGHTS.
Plan to Make Denver Best TIlumf-
na.ed of All Cities.

Plan to Make Denver Best TIIumi-
na.ed of All Cities.
A movement is on foot to make
Denver the best lighted city in the
world, says the Chicago American
Already counted the cleanest, its pow
er to attract the tourist is to be in
creased by lighting system that will
make its streets at night resemble the
courts of worlds fair and make it
famous as 'the City Of Lights"
1t Is, in fact, from the wonderfully
beautiful effects secured at the Chi
cago, Buffalo and st. Louis expositions
that the idea Of lighting the streets Of
the city has been derived, and the man
who planned these effects has been
brought to Denver to undertake to do
for city's lighting that which he &C.
complished for the fair grounds.
The first step toward the big plan
for Denver will be the erection Of thir-
ty-three steel arches to span Sixteenth
street, the principal thoroughfare OF
the city, each arch to carry 220 mean
descent electric light bulbs. The
arches will reach from curb line to
curb line and from them will also be
suspended the trolley wires Of the
tramway line, and so all other poles
along the street will be removed and
full sweep given the eye In the view
Of the glowing arches Of light. The
arches are in themselves ornamental
and in replacing ordinary poles will
even in the daylight add to the beauty
Of the street. 1t will all be in meas
ure theatrical or circusy, but Is con-
sidered desirable in a city so much
sought by the tourist and sightseer as
is Denver At the same time the
service result is expected to be much
better than is secured from the arc
lights on which the public lighting of
the city Mt present depends

chauffeur raised him, and with the
rush Of sudden agonizing pain there
came slipping back into silence and
darkness.
The silence remained when he found
light again. It was very still. He
looked lazily up at the yellow tinted
walls, at the window next his bed.
There were yellow curtains at 1t, and
on the window sill was jar filed with
blossoming daffodils. They looked pref
ty in the sunshine. Stafford was so en-
crossed in watching them that he did
not notice the girl standing at the half
opened door until the nurse had left the
room and she came to the foot Of the
bed and smiled down at him.
