Every morning before the wheels
and shuttles Of big slipper company
at Worcester, Mass, are set in motion
halfhour prayer service is conduc-
ted by the owner of the factory, j.
Prescott Grosvenor While the ma
ehinery of the neighboring plants Is
whirring and clanking, the strains OF
q hymn may be heard coming from
this big brick building. There Is a
brief scripture reading, a prayer. an
ether hymn, and then the signal Is
given, the steam is turned on, and
the confusing roar of a big shoe fac
tory takes the place of the Sabbath
calm. Mr.. Grosvenor has a small
chapel in the factory, which he has
named the Pauline Memorial Chapel,
and here the services take place.
Attendance Is not compulsory, but a
goodly proportion of the $50 employees
are present.
Religion" says Mr.. Grosvenor, Is
inseparable from every part OF a
mans life. There is no reason why
a man should go to church on Sunday,
and try to deceive in his business deal

conduct their business on Christian
principles. The teachings of the Bible
are the only guide for a man who is
brought in contact with others, wheth-
er in the relation OF customer buyer
or employe."
Mr.. Grosvenor has been in business
In Worcester for twenty-one years.
His factory has grown from one
with an output of 100 pairs of slippers
day to one with 5000 pairs, He is
of medium height, and looks about
sc years old. His hair and mustache
are gray, and he always dresses in
black.
Twenty-one years ago Mr.. Grosvenor
began business as manufacturer of
slippers. For three years he had @
hard struggle, but at the end OF that
time he received, as he says, the spirit
Of God and became q Christian, Join

Unlike so many who have endeavor-

has succeeded. Many say that the
essence of his Christianity and the
secret of his success is his big heart.

For twelve years | was engaged

"lt is one of my ideas that the

helping of others. And so, if any of

And If there be any doubt as to
whether or not Mr.. Grosvenor Is popu-

to talk with any of them. For the
lowest Office boy to the foreman there
is but one opinion, that he is the best
friend that they have, and that, unlike

into trouble he will stand by them

the factory is closed at night and on
Sundays he leads missions and prayer

times in churches for the colored peo-
pie. Recently he was requested to
take charge of a Bible class composed
of young men in Grace church, one
Of the largest churches in Worcester.

RICH, BUT WORKS
MILLIONAIRE OFFICE BOY IN
NEW YORK CITY.
Fellow Employees Find 1t Not Difficult
to Realize That He Does Not Have

Blond Typewriter Thinks.

New York has a millionaire office
boy, who owns automobiles, racing
motor boats, wears six suits Of clothes

works, and takes his wealthy employ

letters, answering the phone, and
running errands without whimper.
The boy is the son of DR.. V,
one of the most prominent and
wealthy physicians on Manhattan Isl.
and, and through his mother, heir, Of
great riches besides what he will re-
ceive from his father. He is the mar
vel of the lower west side, where he
works, and the disturbing element for
scores of fair typewriter girls who
watch for a chance to win smile oA
glance from the Office boy.
The Office boy is nearly 21 years of
age, and he was "flunked out" of col
lege, so his father ordered him to go
to work and, despite his wealth and
influence, the best he could do was to
find position as office boy with a
big chemical manufacturing company
on the lower west side, the owner or
which was friend of his father.
Look" said the blond typewriter,
bending her fair head toward where
the office boy was licking postage
stamps. Its shame to make him
work that way. He's wearing the
sixth suit of clothes he's had on this
week He's worn a blue suit, black
suit, brown, a worsted, and tweed,
and that frock he had on yesterday"
you must watch him pretty close,

For Growing Girls.

West Pembroke. Me. April 24.-
Mrs. A. L. Smith. of this place. says
that Dodd's Kidney pills are the best
remedy for growing girls. Mrs. Smith
emphasizes her recommendation By
the following experience:
My daughter was thirteen years old
last November and il is now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
spells that would last n week and
would then pass off. In n month rhe
would have tho spells again. At these
times she would eat very little and
vas very yellow: even the whites OF
her eyea would be yellow.
The doctors gave US no encourage
ment. they all said they could not help
her. After taking one box OF Dodd's
Kidney Pills. she has not had one bad
spell. OF course. We continued the
treatment until she had used In all
about dozen boxes. and we still give
them to her occasionally. when she is
not feeling well. Dodd's Kidney Pills
are certainly the best medicine for
growing girls"
Mothers should heed the advice OF
Mrs. Smith. for by so doing. they may
save their daughters much pain and
sickness and ensure a.lsa.thy. happy
future for them.
