ENGLISH PREACHER ON
AMERICAN SUNDAYS

The Rev. Thomas Law, secretary
of the Free Church Council of Eng
land and Wales, recently spent three
weeks in the United States, visiting
several of the important cities of the
east and going as far west as Chica-
go. He has now written his impress
sions of the life of the churches OF
America, although he admits that
three weeks is short time to de-
velop knowledge. Mr.. Law expresses
himself as being pleased with much
of what he saw of American religious
life, but on several points he does not
hesitate to criticize.
Especially does he find fault with
the fact that the people of the
churches do not make their influence
more strongly felt. He says the coun-
try will never be saved If the church
people content themselves with max
ing prayers and let the devil make
the laws, and he recommends re-
turn to the methods of the Puritan
fathers, who not only knew how to
pray, but knew how to take their
places in the affairs of the nation.
Mr.. Law does not like the Ameri-
can Sunday. England, he says, is
fast losing the old-time Sunday, but
America is losing it faster. He says
he has spent Sundays in most of the
cities of Europe, but in not one of
them did he find the day so bad as
in Chicago.

or Interest to All Mining Men.

To a large number of residents of
Ely a thorough knowledge of the
science of modern mining is almost
indispensable. No industry has pro-
crossed so rapidly in the last few
years as has the mining industry. To
succeed one must be thoroughly
posted on these modern methods and
developments. And the very best
and cheapest way to get this neces-
sary training is by enrolling now in
the International Correspondence
Schools. Take your choice of Full
Metal Mining Course, Smelling
Course, Metal Prospector's Course,
or whatever suits your needs. Full

Saratoga Chips.

Those who like Saratoga chips will
find this recipe from the Woman S
Home Companion useful:
IF one owns potato slicer, which
is not an expensive utensil, they are
not difficult to prepare. They are al
ways an acceptable accompaniment to
fried fish, but perhaps are never more
happily in evidence than when served
as one of the accessories of a picnic
luncheon. Wash and pare medium
sized potatoes. Slice thin, using a
vegetable slicer made for the pur-
pose, into a bowl of cold water and
let stand one and one-half hours,
changing the water twice.
Drain, plunge into a kettle of boil
ing water and let boil one minute.
Drain again, cover with cold water
and let stand five minutes. Take
from the water and dry between tow
els. Fry in deep fat until delicately
Drowned, keeping in motion with a
skinner throughout the cooking.
Remove with skinner to a pan
lined with brown paper (Which will
absorb the superfuous fat, and
sprinkle with salt. Always drain fried
potatoes on brown paper, for fried
food, if properly cooked and properly
drained, seldom absorbs enough fat
to he indigestible to adults.

FIRST ORGAN TAKEN
INTO THE NORTHLAND
(Special Observation-Disclosures

Seattle, Aug. 6.-Among the in
teresting exhibits of the early days of
Alaska and Yukon, at the Alaska
Yukon-Pacific exposition, which will
be held in Seattle in 1909, will be
the first organ that went into the
Northland. Organs and pianos are
common now in the north, but in
1898 mouth organ was the largest
instrument of music that the land
possessed.
Two Seattle men that winter pur-
chased an organ for about 500. They
had money enough to ship it to Skag-
uay and little more for two months
food. They packed the organ over
Chilkoot pass, taking a month to do
it, and another month to drag the in
strument to Dawson. At that time
there were over a hundred new mil
lionaires in Dawson, many of whom
had just married. Among the women
the competition as to who would own
the organ, was intense. 1t finally fell
to the richest of them all, the wife
of man who was also the most in
love. The bids went up by the hun
dreds and the organ was the basis of
a large fortune for the men to whom
the idea first occurred. The organ
is still in good condition, and bears
little marks of its l 900 mile journey
over ice and snow and mountain
peak.

THE CULTIVATION
OF AMB|DEXTER|TY

In paper on bi-manual training,
in the August number of the Strand,
Gordon Raymond informs us that cit
Is well known fact that those won
derfnl little warriors, the Japanese,
can use their weapons with equal
skill in either hand, for they are
trained to be ambidextrous from
childhood. At school they are taught
To write and draw with both hands,
and it is to this early training that
many attribute the superiority of the
Japanese in certain forms of art. In
drawing and painting no supporting
device whatever is used the entire
arm being employed.
The German educational authori-
ties, too, are at present giving con-
siderable attention to left-hand work
especially. in their technical and me-
chanical schools, The students are
taught to saw, plane and hammer as
well with the left hand as with the
right, and the economical and indus
trial Importance of ambidexterity is
firmly impressed upon the minds of
the young men and women.
Many reasons have been advanced
for the prevalence of right-handed-
ness. 1t is by some said to be the re-
suit of nursing an infantile treat
ment, to be due to early practice in
writing and drawing, to be the out
come of warfare, education and here
dity, the result of mechanical law,
the effect of visceral distribution, and
other remote causes. Sir James Saw
yer declares that the preferential use
of the right hand is due to the fact
that in primitive days, when those
took who had the power and those
retained who could, man used the
right hands for purposes of offense,
so as to keep the heart-the vital
spot-as far away as possible from
the assault of an adversary. Recent
experiments, and observations, how
ever, prove that single-handedness is
merely the result of faulty or re-
stricted education.
at is a curious instance of human
contrariness that should one eye, one
ear, or one leg of a child show signs
of diminished vigor, the parents
would instantly seek the cause of,
and, If possible, the remedy for, that
lamentable condition; yet, for some
inexplicable reason or prejudice, the
left hand of the average child is ruth
lessly and deliberately boycotted, I'M
til in mature years it is undeyeloped,
useless, and almost unnecessary APP
pendage.
Careful observations have shown
that out of every hundred persons
born into this world eighty are con-
CENTRALLY ambideXtrous-th is to
say, they will instinctively reach for
an object with either hand-and on
ly require proper instruction and
training to develop both hands and
arms to an equal degree of strength
and skill. OF the remaining twenty,
seventeen will be right-handed, while
the other three will show natural
bias toward the left hand. The cul
tivation of ambidexterity, Therefore,
offers no insuperable difficulties, and
the economical physiological and
psychological advantages are enor

NO SUCH LUCK.

The late Bishop Fitzgerald once de-
cared that sympathy, far more than
eloquence or learning. made more
for success in the ministry.
"Too many of us, through lack of
sympathy" he said, SAY the worst,
the most inappropriate things. Thus,
a young Baptist friend of mine, con-
doing with housebreaker in jail
droned:
"'Ah, my friend, let us remember
that we are here today and gone to-
morrok.

Her Choice of PRAYERS.

A mother told her child, a boy of
5 years. to say his morning prayer to
her. Kneeling before her, the little
fellow asked:
Mother, shall say my prayer or
nurses prayer?"
The mother, not being aware that
the nurse ever said any morning
prayer, became curious.
Say nurses, dear" she answered.
Whereupon the little fellow began
solemnly:
Lord, o Lord, have I got to get
up?"
