A Successful Passionate.

The photograph Of Rev. James Church
Alvord, who recently resigned his pas
torate at the Globe Congregational
church at Woonsocket, X. l., appeared in
the Boston Sunday Herald, together
with the following account of his work
there during the past IA years.
During his pastorate Rev. Mr.. Alvord
has seen the membership Of the church
grow from 90 to $40. new brick and
stone church has been built and COM
modious parsonage. The church is also
out of debt. Throughout New England
Rev. Mr. Alvord is we'll known as fine
preacher, and he is considered the best
Greek scholar in the Rhode Island con-
ference. He is consulting editor for
Rhode Island of the Congregationalist,
and has written many short stories and
sketches for that paper, He comes of
famous stock. His mother was of the
we'll known Dewey family of Massachu-
sets, which has given more judges to
the bench than any other family in the
United States. Mr.. Alvord's brother,
the late Maj Henry E. Alvord, was at
one time president of the Massachusetts
Agricultural College, and was well
known as an agricultural and chemical
expert.
Mr.. Alvord's great-uncle, Dewitt Gin
ton, built the Erie canal in New York
state, and his great-uncle, George Gin
ton, was twice vice-president OF the
United States, and the two together
were governors of the state of New York
for 35 years.

Hot Weather Ahead.
How to Keep the Kitchen Cool and Comfort.
able In Midsummer.

Many housewife is wondering how
she will pass through the coming sum-
mer months with the stove she well
knows will make the kitchen unbearably
hot-to say nothing Of the dirt, dust and
ashes that will add to the discomfort.
There is way out of it ala way
that not only lessons the work and keeps
the kitchen cool, but that also reduces
fuel expense. This convenience, comfort
and economy is all effected by the New
Perfection Wick Blue Flame Oil Cook
Stove, an oil stove so superior to other
makes that it is fast replacing the coal
and wood range, the old-fashioned oil
stove, and in many cases the gas stove.
Anyone who has had to wait ten or
fifteen minutes for the fire to get started
will appreciate the New Perfection,
which gives strong working flame at
moment of lighting. Blue Flame "
means the hottest and cleanest flame
produced by any stove The fame is
always under immediate control and can
be raised or lowered instantly. The con-
venience of this will be understood when
it is considered that while the fame Of
one burner is boiling the kettle or roast
ing large joint, that of another can be
reduced to simmering point--in this way
enabling the housewife to cook a variety
of dishes at one time.
Then the comfort of it. While the
flame of the New Perfection is intensely
hot, yet the heat is not thrown off into
the kitchen because it is concentrated by
blue-enameled chimneys.
On washing and ironing days the com
fort and convenience of the New Per-
fiction will be greatly appreciated. 1t
gives best results in the least time, and
does away with all coal and wood car
rying and the many other disagreeable
Jobs that have to be done with other
stoves. The New Perfection is made in
three sizes, with one, two and three
burners, and is warranted to give full
satisfaction.
Another home comfort is the Rayo
Lamp, which produces light of unusual
brightness, yet soft and mellow-a light
that will not hurt the eyes The Rayo
Lamp can be used in any room, whether
it be library, dining-room, parlor or
bedroom 1t is highly ornamental, being
made of brass throughout and beauti-
fully nickeled. Every lamp is warranted
and makes valuable and handsome
addition to any home.
The New Perfection Wick Blue Flame
Oil Cook-Stove and the Rayo Lamp are
two real essentials to home comfort.
Their easy operation, absolute safety
and handsome appearance commend
them wherever stoves and lamps are
used
