Why do you gOl

The Rev, DR.. Cobb, pastor of
81. Ethelburger's c h ur c h,
Bishopsgate, England, is re-
sponsible for a discussion now
making the rounds of the news
papers. DR.. Cobb inquired, in
a London cable dispatch, into
the reasons responsible for
church going, saying that most
of his Pensioners went to
church on Sunday because of
habit, others through fear of
public opiuion, some to show
their cloths, but none seemed
to go to hear the sermon.
A number of Chicago preach
ers have been getting reasons
from the members of their con-
gregation for church going,
and the Chicago Tribune gives
a concrete reply from the Rev.
r. Keene, pastor OF the Gar
field Boulevard Presbyterian
church, in Chicago, who has
been conducting an investiga-
tion. DIR. Keene says that out
of 100 men questioned fifteen
said that they attend church in
order to hear the music. Fiji
teen because they wanted to set
a good examgle to their child
ren. Fifteen through force of
habit. Fifteen because they
wanted to please their wives.
Fifteen because it helped their
business. Ten because they
had promised dying parents to
do so. Ten because they were
not sure as to the future and
did not want to run any risk of
going to hell, although they
did not believe in such a place.
Five because they believed in
the teachings of the bible and
enjoyed the sermons.

Porch Furnishing.

For a cottage on the lake or sea-
shore the deep porch may be made a
picture in deep blues and the brilliant
scarlet of Turkey reds. This scarlet
tone may always be used effectively
in porch furnishings. especially when
the scarlet and white East India cot
tons are in combination Delft blue
gives lovely porchroom also; the
hammock in blue and white cord;
denim cover in blue worked with
white for the table; blue denim cush-
ions for the chairs, as well as piled in
the hammock; big wicker armchair
petticoated and cushioned in blue and
white Japanese cotton crepe, and on
the floor a blue and white hit or

Shabby Carpets.

To clean and brighten shabby
carpet, cut an ounce of yellow soap
into small squares, and make into a
lather with a pint Of boiling water.
Add to this a quart of water and one
ounce of boraX. Place the mixture
on the range and bring it to boil;
then remove it. and when quite cold
add an ounce each of alcohol and
ammonia and half an ounce of gly-
cerin. Wipe over small portion of
the carpet at time, and rub vigor-
ously with clean flannel (Which
should be repeatedly turned as it gets
soiled) dipped in the mixture, until
all the spots are removed and the
color revived. When you have fin
ished you will be delighted to find
how nice your once shabby carpet
looks.

Correct Spelling.

The importance of correct
spelling is not likely to be over
estimated. How best to teach
-pelling in the public schools
i5a question which has been
very much discussed, and about
hlch there is variety of
,pinions. 1t is taught differ
ntly now from what it was in
the old days, and the question
whether the rising generation

cestors. If children could only
be made to appreciate how es.
sential the ability to spell cor
rectly is, and how much it
would be worth to them in
future life, they would all strive
for excellence in this branch.
1t is worth while to stimulate
interest in it wherever possible,
and no better way is found than
through the old-fashioned spell
ing bee and spelling down in
school.
Return has been made to that
ancient practice in the public
schools of Cleveland, and the
authorities there are quoted as
saying that the children in the
elementary grades spell six
times better than they did be.
fore. If it has worked as vel
as that in Cleveland, it will
work we'll elsewhere and de
serves to be added to the cur,
riculum. The value of the spell

a contest and competition OF

to excel, and will study more

gradients for the Ap-
petizer.

For tomato and pineapple salad.
peel medium sized tomatoes Re
move n thin slice from top of each
and take out seeds and pulp. Sprinkle
with little salt and place in the
refrigerator for an hour. Just before
serving fill the tomatoes with fresh
pineapple, thoroughly chilled, cut in
small pieces or shredded, and nut
meats. using twothirds pineapple and
one.third nuts. Mix with mayonnaise
dressing; garnish with a little of
the dressing, and halves of nut meats.
Serve on a bed of lettuce leaves or
water-cress.
Most salads should be dressed just
before serving, whether French dress
ing or mayonnaise is used. Celery or
lettuce wilt if left in oil and vinegar
Celery should not even be washed
long before serving. as it becomes
rusty. Potato salad takes up large
quantities of oil. and need to be very
well mixed with whatever dressing
is used.
Salads made of greens should al.
ways be served crisp and cold. Can
ned or cold cooked leftover vege-
tables are well utilized in salads, but
are best mixed with French dressing
and should be placed in the refrigera-
tor an hour or so before serving.
Meats for salads should be freed from
skin and gristle, cut into small pieces,
and allowed to stand with French
dressing before combining with veg
etables.
A dinner set usually consists of
from 100 to $50 pieces. All large
houses carry a number of stock pat
terms, so that one may replace at
any time half-dozen or dozen plates
or cups and Saucers. These stock
patterns are not confined to the
cheaper grades but many of them are
artistic in design and of the best
quality of domestic and imported
china. Blue and white is particular
ly attractive for breakfast. 1t is no
economy to buy a cheap ware, and
the simpler the color and design,
the better. Gold is expensive. 1t is
well to choose china which has the
name of the maker on the bottom. If
one lives in a large city, where spe-
cial sales are held once or twice a
| year, great bargains may be picked up.

Social intercourse as an Educator.

Social intercourse as an EduCdIOT.
1T is astonishing how much
you can learn from people in
social intercourse when you
know how to look at them
rightly. But it IS fact that
you can only get a great deal
out OF them by giving them a
great deal of yourself. The
more you radiate yourself, the
more magnanimous you are, the
more generous OF yourself, the
the more you fling yourself out
to them without reserve. the
more you will get back.
You must give much in order
to get much. The current will
not set toward you until it goes
out from you. About all you
get from others is reflex OF
the currents from yourself.
The more generously you give,
the more you get in return.
You will not receive if you give
out stingily, narrowly, meanly.
You must give of yourself in a
hole-hearted, generous way,
or you will receive only stingy
rivulets, when you might have
had great rivers and torrents of
blessings.
A man who might have been
symmetrical, well-rounded, had
he availed himself of every op-
portunity of touching life along
all sides, remains a pygmy in
everything except his own little
speciality, because he did not
cultivate his social side.
1t is always a mistake to miss
an opportunity of meeting with
our kind, and especially of mix
ing with those about us, be
cause we can always carry away
something of value. 1t is
through social intercourse that
our rough corners are rubbed
off, that we become polished and
attractive.
1t is possible to get a benefit
out of social life which cannot
be cotton elsewhere. If you go
into it with a determination to
give it something, to make it
a school for self-improvement,
for calling out your best soc ial
qualities, for developing the
latent brain cells, which have
remained dormant for the lack
of exercise, you will not find
society either bore or unprofit,
able. But you must give it
something, or you will not get
anything.
When you learn to look upon
every one you meet as holding
a treasure, something which
will enrich your own life, which
will enlarge and broaden your
own experience, and make you
more of a man. you Will not
think the time in the drawing
room wasted.
The man who is determind tc
get on will lCok upon every ex.
perience as an educator, as d
culture chisel, which will make
his life a little more shapely
and attractive. Success

The UnWritten Law.
From the New York World.


Southern newspaper comment
upon the Loving trial shows that
in no part of the country does
public opinion fail to appreciate
the menace of the 'unwritten
law" to the hard-won fruits of
law and order in civilization.
The Columbia State says that
the unwritten law is a terrible
strain upon civilization and that
where the courts practically
give warrant to procedure that
makes it easy for weak
or vicious woman to have one
man sacrificed to save another,
then it becomes a monstrous
evil In Judge Loving's own
state, the Richmond News-L eader
says that life in unsafe, the
law against murder is almost null
lifted and the state is in the ig-
nominous position of being un-
able to protect her own citizens
These are considerations not
for a section but for a nation.
New York may not plume her
self over Virginia so long as
Harry Thaw's case remaines un-
decided.
The trouble with the unwritten
law is that it is unwritten. 1t
proves too much. There are no
limits set to its vagaries. In the
Loving case it justified father
in shooting man who gave
drink of whiskey to his daughter,
the jury having assured Judge
Loving that no assault was COM
mitted. In the Thaw case un-
written law is cited to justify
Thaw in shooting the alleged Sc
ducer of his wife, who had also
been his mistress, although the
offence was committed years be-
fore the marriage and was known
to Thaw at that time, In the
Strothers case it sets free man
who killed his sisters husband
for the suspected intention to de-
sert her after marriage. In the
Birdsong case it is invoked to
free a woman who shot man
because she desired to have him
shot-a demand so monstrous
that 200 southern women of the
vicinity conquered their repug-
nance to such publicity to ask
that he be not released.
The southern newspapers which
the World has quoted are right.
There is no law but the written
law. The unwritten law is an
archy.
