SHADES
Are Needed

You need Vudor Porch Shades to get
the most out of your porch.
To make it a spot where you can
rest or work on the hottest days-out-
doors, yet free from the suns glare and
heat.
You can do this with Vudor Porch
Shades; you can add to the house an
other room, cool and shady, where you
may enjoy every refreshing breeze, in
secluded comfort.
Vudor Porch Shades are very dur
able, and will last many seasons
Another good feature about them is
the peculiar fact that those sitting on
the porch can see out, but passersby
cannot see in. In other words, you
have complete privacy, and can use
the porch or veranda the same as an
inside room, with infinitely more COM
fort on hot days
Vudor Porch Shades are just the
thing for boxing in porches or bal
comics that are to be used as outdoor
sleeping or living apartments.
Vudor Porch Shades are made OF
thin, fiat strips of Linden Wood, close
ly bound by strong Seine Irvine, in a
ock-stitch weave.
They are artisticalIy stained in soft,
pleasing colors. These colors are

BROADWAY AS 1T LOOKS TO AME
LIE RIVES.

Amelie Rives shares the dislike OF
many authors for pro onged residence
in New York. There is a hostile de-
scription of Broadway at night in her
attest novel, The Golden Rose, which
illumines her preference for the quiet
life which she lives in Virginia.
"The sheets of lilac-tinted light that
poured from every side showed her
faces avid for pleasure, tense with'that
greed for the sensations that are pur-
chaseable set, whether smiling or rest,
in a predetermined resolution of enjoy
ment, that turned the tinsel night into
an artificial day of labor. She felt that
if the Statue OF Liberty in the harbor
were to call aloud in some great cause,
it would be with a fierce, megaphOnic
shout in which all these street clang-
ors would be blended And a sense OF
the unreality of it all grew upon her
feeling that it was but some mon
strous, thrice-magnified street in III
tanic stage town of gold-miners, that
would be quenched and rolled aside for
the night, at the ending OF the lurid
play. She sat silent and dismayed'
watching the red glare of the huge adj
vertisement that glowed like its crown
Jewel on the forehead of this distorted
harlot night OF Broadway, And she
thought OF the quiet, snow-wrapped
fields OF Kingsweather, and of the leaf
less branches OF the trees before her
window, quiyerlng with a thousand
stars, as In the soft June nights they
qulyered with the delicate hre-flles,"

Foremost Episcopal Clergyman.
For more than 20 years Bishop Pot
ter. as the head of the metropolitan
see of New York, had been the fore
most Protestant Episcopal clergyman
in the United States. He was con-
spicuous also for his ideas and the
courage with which he attempted. to
carry them out, Notwithstanding that
sometimes he met with emphatic evil
dences of popular disapproval
Coming from a race of scholars and
churchmen, Bishop Potter was an in
tellectual aristocrat. But in sympa-
thies and views he was singularly
democratic. emphasizing in his SER
mons, writings and conduct the grand
sight and the service of God His
apprehension of the dangers that be-
set democracy was keen, and his utter
ances teemed with his hopes for the
remedying Of social injustice.
Bishop Potter was born in Science
tady, N. Y, May 25, 1894. His father
was Right Rev. Alonzo Potter. bishop
of Pennsylvania, and his grandfather
was DR.. Mott, president of Union col
lege, and his uncle, Right Rev. Hora-
ito Potter, was bishop of New York.
With these relations it was natural
that he should be trained for the
church. In 1857 he was graduated
from the Theological seminary of Vir
ginia, and year later was ordained
in Trinity church, Pittsburg.
The young rector's first charge was
in Greensburg, Pa. where he served
a year Then he went to Troy. n. Y.
where he was for seven years at the
head of st. Johns church. In 1866
he became assistant rector of Trinit,
| hurch, Boston, and two years late
was elected rector of Grace church
New York city.
Rector at Grace Church.
For Is years Bishop Potter filled tn,
rectorship of Grace church, with it
many and great responsibilities. II
1875 he was elected bishop of Iowa
but declined the honor. He was sec
rotary for 20 years of the house o
bishops, in which capacity he becam
well acquainted with ecclesiastical
procedure and traditions.
In 1887 Bishop Horatio Potter died
and his nephew succeeded to the fu1
power and dignity of bishop of Ney
York. A review of Bishop Henry {
POtter's 20 years of service in thi
capacity brings out clearly the fac
}. that the one great work of his admir-
!, istration, for which if for nothing els
future generations will remember hiI
well, has been the building of tn
cathedral of ST John the Divine.
His sincere efforts to mitigate tn
L drink evil caused much misunderstood
U ing of Bishop Potter. Under his san
ltion 1.-THE Subway Tavern" was opel
ed as a saloon, where all kinds of il
toXicating liquors could be purchase
