THE CHURCH AND THE WORLD.
Secular Religion a Feature of Present
Day, Says Professor.

The world can no longer be consid.
cred as n sphere Of human life, sepa-
rate from or a~ntagonistic to the
church. Too much religion has got.
ten out of the church into the world
to allow us to think OF all the good
being in the church, and of the world
as being nothing but evil. Religion
is taking on secular, in distinction
from exclusively ecclesiastical, forms
Of expression. There Is coming to
be a world church, having n religious
consciousness to which nothing that
Is common to man is foreign, and in
n sacriiclal service for all the world.
We have builded better than we
know. Oar philanthropies and re-
forms have sanctified the secular,
have manifolded our MINISTRIES. The
religious valuation OF the single soul,
~sanctity of the one life, worth of the
person above things, is forcing broth
erhood upon business, and making It
the corollary to the proposition of the
fatherhood of God. The doctrine OF
the kingdom, which Is righteousness,
peace and Joy" is being translated
into politics, civics, law and diplo-
macy.-Prof. Graham Taylor. Chicago.

Au1oeRApAs GAME ~ useful.

on Famous Names.

Jt ia sometimes mighty useful to
nave distinguished relatives. Here Is
an instance In point. A young New
Yorker, a brother-in-law OF Sir Philip
Burne-Jones, the artist, found himself
stranded while In Albany a few days
ago. Being un%acquainted In the state
capital, the problem of how to raise
enough money to get back to Broad
way was a serious Suddenly 1t
dawned upon him that n couple OF let

Kipling, the author. might be made to
realize, IL not train fare, at least the
price Of n ham sandwich. Acting on
the Inspiration, he took the letters to
q nearby bookstore. which made a
speciality Of the buying and selling OF
original autograph letters OF famous
persons.
Fortunately there happened to be
nothing of n particularly private or
confidential nature in the missives in
question, and after examining them
carefully and asking some questions
relating thereto the proprietor of the
store finally offered their owner $i.75
for both letters-si for the KiplinS
epistle and rs cents for the Burne-
Jones one. Needless to SAY, the offer
was promptly accepted.

WOMEN IN THE STOCK MARKET.
Wall Street Brokers Have Private
Rooms for Fair Patrons.

The number OF women spectators
is amazingly large-much larger than
even the ordinary Wall street habitue
would imagine. 1t Is not commonly
known, but II Is n fact that many
brokerage houses maintain private
rooms for their women customers,
with more often than not, private IN
trances There are several reasons
for this. One Is that many women
who speculate do so secretly, without
the knowledge OF their family, their
relatives or their friends. On this ac-
count they desire privacy, desire to
move and have their Wall street be-
Ing unknown. Another reason Is that
the broker himself desires II, princi-
pally, be 1t confessed, because he Is
anxious that II there be any scenes
they shall be private ones, FAR from
the m%addening crowds ignoble strife
and sight. For truth compcls tho
statement that women are poorer los.

conservative brokers that a woman
