Two Popular Shapes.

The turban and tricOrne are still In
vogue and are certainly pretty and be-
coming to every one. One tricorne is
shown in the illustration. It Is Of wool
~ black felt and has at the left side q
rosettes of pale blue velvet ribbon ex-
tended along the back short distance
for the purpose of affording hold for
the hatpins which otherwise would
have to be driven through the skull.
Above the rosette Ia q natural paradise
sweep, the colors being white, cream
and faint brown This Is certainly a
dainty conceit and is peculiarly adapt
ed to the brunette type.
In the illustration are two dress hats
for wear at all sorts of functions where
hats are permissible. The one turned
down Is of white velvet made with q
fat brim. The underside Of the brim
Is incrusted with fine lace medallions
over satin, and the crown is completely
hidden under mass Of beautiful fluffy
plumes, shading from pure white to a
faint pink. The other is of white felt
as to the outside Of the brim, with
folded white chiffon on the inner SIDE
1t is tilted high on the left to allow for
a large bunch of American Beauty

are intwined with white tulle on the

MEN ARE CAUGHT THAT BEST

Rev. II. s. Black Preached Entertain.
inaIy at Park Street Baptist
Church Sunday Morning.

Sunday morning Rev. H. S. Black,
pastor of the Park Street Baptist
church, preached a very eloquent ser
mon to a large congregation. He took
his text from Matthew 40, Come Ye
After Me and will make you Fishers
of Men" In part the reverend gentle
man said:
These were the words that Jesus
addressed to His diciples, Simon, Peter
fishermen. Fish are caught that men
may feed upon them. Men are to be
caught that the best good may come
to them. man caught for Christ
has eternal life, that is, he is made
eternally alive, is eternally in har-
mony with. God, has His life here and
will inherit His glory over there. To
catch man-as with fish-we must go
where they are. We must have bait
and paraphrenalia suitable to the
waters and the size of the man. Love
is the bait-a Cody life among the
best nets. AS minnows grow to fish, so
children grow to men and women.
Fish when caught while minnows and
kept in a suitable, safe place they are
ready to hand when grown to fish. So
children. saved and kept in suitable
environment are ready meat for the
Masters USE Minnows are used for
bait, so a little child shall lead them
There is needed the same pa
thence, persistency, quietness. wisdom
and alertness in fishing for men as in
fishing for the denizens of the liquid
deep. Some men go with jointed rods,
silk lines, beautiful flies, but catch no
fish. while a boy with a hoop pole,
string and handy worm or grasshopper
on his hook will get a good string
So some go with finished, ornate, pol
ished rhetoric but catch no men, while
another goes with rugged, hOmely
talk that would hardly be classed as
a sermon and lands many. The diff
ference is that Christ makes one a
fisher Of men,"

Good Story on Carter of Iowa.

CHARLES CITY, Iowa, Jan. "a
The election of Tom Carter as United
States senator in Montana recalls 6
local incident that happened many
years ago when Tom was a book agent
selling a work called Footprints OF
Time"
The hustling book agent met Chaun-
cey Kelligg, young man who had just
inherited an 80-acre tract of land ad-
Joining this city. He induced young
Kellogg to deed him the eighty acres
in consideration of his being appointed
as sole agent of the book in this coun-
ty.
Kellogg took the agency and did not
sell over ten of the books. The eighty
is now valued at something like 5000
an acre. Kelloggs friends tried to
have him institute legal proceedings
for the recovery of the land, but he
felt morally bound by the contract
and swallowed his bitter pill without
tremor. He is now making a living
by keeping small store at Lehigh.

THEY WILL ADOPT WIRELESS.
New York Central and Lake Shore Try
Far-Reaching Experiments.

CHICAGO, ILL., Jan. 24.-Arrange-
ments are being made for the installa-
ton of wireless telegraphy on the New
York Central and Lake Shore rail-
roads. 1t is proposed to equip the
Twentieth Century Limited and the
Lake Shore limited trains so that the
passengers ON them may send or re-
ceive messages at any time, whether
the train is standing still or running
at the rate of ninety miles an hour.
Preliminarie tests have satisfied Pres
ident Newman that this is possible
with the wireless system of telegraphy.
To provide communication at will
with trains in motion is only part OF
the New York Centrars plan. Expe-
riments have been made Of the pres
ent automatic block signals in combi-
nation with the equipment for wire

double warning to engine men will be
a most valuable safeguard against ac-
cidents. The new system is said to
be an improvement on the system now
in use and will make collisions al
most an impossibility.
Another object in installing the wire
less system of telegraphy is to be in
dependent of the present telegraph
system. Storms which blow down
telegraph poles cause immense loss to
the railroads by delaying train SER
vice and INCREASE the risk of acct
dent
If the tests made on the Lake Shore
and New York Central prove salts
factory, undoubtedly many other
railroads will adopt wireless tele-
graphy.

buncoed into buying $4,000 worth OF
blue sky in Montana, and 8. H. Wood

cash, along with the other fellows. Mr.
Kenyon made preliminary investiga-
ton, but did not look at the land. I
looked over $4,000 acres Of land. also
looked over another piece of $4,000
acres which Wood said he owned.
Il visited the courthouse at Great
Falls and found that Woods statement
about part of the land was true and
took the other statement also as true.
The land I saw was all right, but I
have since learned that Wood didn't
own any Of the tract which we were
duped into purchasing. I am informed
that the men who were upon the
ground were hired at a salary of $50
a month to stay there and tell pros
pectors that Wood owned the land and
they were staying out his claim re-

REV. r. J. REID ASKED HIS CON
cREGATIoN THE QUESTION
SUNDAY NIGHT.
Synopsis of His Discourse Delivered at
the. Wilbur Memorial Methodist
Episcopal Church.

Sunday night Rev. r. ]. Reid, pas
tor of the Wilbur Memorial church
chose as the subject of his discourse:
What Is God to Your" His text was
taken from Luke 11-2, When Ye
Pray say Our Father Who Art In
Heaven In part he said:
"'Our Father, the new name for
God and put into our mouths by Jesus
Christ who came from the immediate
presence of the Father, that he might
reveal Him to us.
In strange contrast with this is
Isaac's name for God, the Fear'-rhe
terrible one Throughout the Old Test
ament we see that each of the patri-
archs and prophets saw God in the
hues of his own mental coloring. To
one he was a Great Rock in a weary
land to another a Sun and Shield
And it is true that each one has
some name for God. What is ours?
What is He to US? L believe in God,
are the words of the Apostles creed.
So far so good but what kind of
God? He that cometh to God must be-
lieve that He is, and that He is the
rewarJer of them that diligently seek
Him? 1t is not enough to believe in
His existence, we must know some
thing of His character too.
Herbert Spencer said: The assump-
ton of the existence of a first Great
Cause of the universe is a necessity
of thought Yes, but God must be
something more than a convenience
for the thinker; something more than
a starting point for him.
You believe in God? What kind of
a God? This is a practical question,
for our ideas of God are regulative and
fundamental.
What then is the true thought Of
teaching of Jesus Christ. When We
pray say, Our Father; No man cometh
to the Father but by Me- We may
think of God as The Infinite, The Eter-
nal, and Absolute. but this is a long
plain, and higher than this we cannot
climb without Jesus. One only teaches
us to say Our Father And when we
come under the full influence of this
glorious thought; when through Jesus
Christ we come up to the place where
we can say with our lives Our Father
our sonship with God makes us know
the richer meaning of the words, All
Ye are brethern.'
Every real advance toward the rea-
lizing the meaning of brotherhood of
man mas come through realizing our
sonship with the Father
If God is Father, what does this
make our Savior? Again we turn to
Jesus for answer. Was any sorrow to
compare with His? If it be possible, if
it be possible let this cup pass, yet it's
the cup my Father hath given In that
dark hour to know His Father knew,
loved and directed, was part of His
strength.
so, too, of death. Again we turn
10 Jesus. The dread uncertainty be-
fore His disciples was solid certainty
10 Him. Go to my Father
What, | ask, is God to you? Does
His presence awaken fear and dread
or is 1t that you can say Father to
Him? Is it that there is a dark part
so dark and sinful you dare not use
that loving term? Listen: God was in
Christ reconciling the world to Him
self; The Son of Man is come to
seek and to save that which was his"
