Turkish woman's Veil.

Very often the fashionable ladies'
have other costumes made like an
elaborate opera cloak. and wear wells
that are nothing more than transpar-
ent net. When they reach this ex-
treme and they are seen by the dread
ed spy, these ladies are reported to
the sultan. At once an order is issued
that no one is to wear anything but
the old-fashioned "Terija," and veil
through which the face can not be dis
cerned This order is obeyed for about
a year, when by degrees they begin
wearing thinner wells.

came to Missouri. He was united
in marriage with Miss Martha See
March 4, 1871. OF this union were

months he grew gradually worse
until the end came July 8 at $3.50
p. m. AT the time OF his death he
was sixty-seven years, seven
months and two days old. Bro.
Oyerstreet leaves a devoted wife
and two daughters and many
friends to mourn his going from
us. He was a man of clean lips
and pure heart. He led quiet
and unobtrusive life. To know
him was to respect his manhood
and honor. He had friends many
because he ever showed himself
friendly. The funeral was held
from the home Saturday July, II,
at 10 a. m. in the presence of the
kind neighbors and friends, after
which the body was laid to rest
in the beautiful cemetery at

dence, ttO9 Fell Avenue and
came as great shock to his
family and friends. Mr.. Doner
just prior to the fatal stroke was
conversing in his customary
happy, jovial strain with his
neighbor DR.. Edison Hart, who
was with him on the porch and
gave no evidence of being so near
death. Like flash his
head fell to the back of the chair
and he gasped for breath. DR..
Hart hurried to his side but there
was no pulse left and nothing to
be done to revive him and restore
the precious life spark.
The cause of death was neural
gia of the heart although the in
tense heat of the day may have
had something to do with it.
While Mr.. Doner complained OF
not feeling as we'll as usual, still
he greeted his friends and asso-
ciates at his club during the after
noon and going home perfor med
the chores and offered no particu-
lar complaint of illness. While
sitting out on the porch when
stricken, he was awaiting the call
to the evening meal.
John Wesley Doner was born
in Butler county, Ohio. When
he was twenty-one years of age he
enlisted as private in Company
x. 18TH Ohio infantry and was in
the ninety days seryice.>, Follow
ing his army service he went back
to work on his fathers farm and
remained there until 1868 when he
came west and settled in Mclean
county, on what was his farm
home for years afterwards, FIVE
miles east of this city in Old
Town Township.
Fifteen years ago Mr.. Douer
gave up the active life of an agri-
culturist and moved to Blooming
ton. The family lived on east
Locust street until year ago
when they moved to Fell Avenue.
The decedent was united in mar
riage with Miss Lounette Herrick
on September 9, 1869, who sur
wives. To the union were born
three children, all of whom are
living viz: Albert G. Doner of
Montgomery City, Mo-, Mrs. Mae
Mcfarland of Pittsburg, Pa,
and Everette Doner of Colorado
Springs. Col. Mr.. Doner also
leaves two sisters, Mrs. Mary
Bavord of Maryville, Mo-, and
Mrs. Alexander Beal of this city
also half-brother, VIM. Yeagle
of Hamilton, Ohio.
Mr.. Doner, when a young man
back in Ohio cast his lot with the
United Brethren church, although
he held no membership with any
church in this city. He was a
good man, loving husband and
father, true friend and honorable
citizen. He enjoyed a wide ac-
quaintance in this locality as a
stockman.
Definate announcement as to
the time of the funeral is withheld
awaiting the arrival of the son
from Colorado, but the services
will probably be held Thursday

What the Church Should Do.


That 1t is the mission of the church
to revolutionize the selfish conditions
OF the present life, leaving heaven and
hell to take care of themselves, was the
substance Of recent vigorous address
by the Rev. DR.. Charles L. Fagnani at
mass meeting OF laboring men. He
Is right. The church that has the en-,
thusiasm OF Christ will seek to make
men feel and act like brothers In the
life that now is. 1t will make war up
on all the conditions that enslave and
degrade men. 1t will preach a gospel
for the body as well as for the soul.
IT will not rebuke, but encourage. the
noble unrest that leads laboriny men
TO desire better wages, better homes,
better opportunities for intellectual de-
velopment, and 1t will teach culture
and wealth that increase OF power IL
Increase OF responsibility. 1t is the
business or the church to bring heaven
down TO earth. instead OF postponing
salvation 10 the future. The Christian.
ity OF Christ makes men realize "that
the welfare OF each Is the concern of

TEMPERANCE NOTES.

Some one tells of hotel in Maine.
fitted up with neat gas-pipes in the re-
ception room. When person wanted
drink he called a waiter who turned
the gas on, and out flowed stream of
beer 1t was so arranged that in case
of alarm the flow of beer could be cut
Off and the detectives nonplussed.
''The saloon is the one colossal and
overshadowing crime of this enlightened
century, and the saloonist is the arch
enemy Of our prosperity, progress and
peace. The saloon is the fountain head
of all iniquity and the mother of every
vice. It's red hands are dyed with the
blood of millions of murders and its
foul heart reeks with the corruption of
its own iniquity. 1t is the DESTROYER of
virtue, the seducer of youth, the disrup-
ter Of the home, the enemy of the State,
the church and the school; the insidious
foe Of manhood and the best friend of
hell. ''The saloons influence stills the
laughter on the lips of childhood.
changes the wife's love into despair and
her pride into shame, and strikes at
every interest sacred and vital to man.
Tonight it enters an humble home to
Danish the roses from a woman's cheek.
and tomorrow it challenges this repub-
lie In the halls of Congress. Going
hand in hand with organized vice, and
joining forces with greedy public utility
corporations, it has debauched our poll
tics-municipal, national and State.
And the church of today is to have a
large part in its final overthrow. Let
no one say that it is beyond the prov
ince of the church to deal with such a
problem as this. When hope is being
blasted, ambition paralyzed, opportuni-
ties destroyed, love turned into bitter
ness and hatred, and millions of human
souls plunged into hell by an institution,
it is then high time for the Church of
Jesus Christ to arise in its might against
that institution and to crush out its
corrupt and iniquitious life. And that
the church of today, working through
the Anti-Saloon League, will do for the
saloon. Rev. John Stratton.

Japs Taxing Up Boxlna.

A. NJ. Loughney, an athlete, who has
been studying jiu jitsu in Japan, says
that the Japs are beginning to take n
great interest In American boxing and
that great prize fighter will undoubt-
edly be turned out by that country
some day.
'"The JAP" says Loughney, els by na-
ture fighter. II he turns to prize
fighting he would be more OF a fighter
than a boxer. His head and jaw are
shaped like fighting animals, and he
has what prize fighters call the heart
lie can nght losing battle like an
lrishman. In studying jiu jitsu have
found that the Japanese are not nearly
as susceptible to pain as we are. Jiu
jitsu is terribly painful and dangerous.
IL they can stand that. they could
stand prize fighting and not mind the
punishment.
Il taught number how to box while
In Japan. They know very little about
1t, but learned with remarkable quick
ness on account OF their much more
rapid sword play. Their main disad-
vantage is in the shortness of their
reach."-BaltimOre News

WHILE I AM HERE

Save not the roses of your love for me,
To place them in garland on my bier;
l shall not need them then, for death
shall cere
My eyelids fast, so that shall not see
Their radiant beauty, and their scent
will be
But spent for me in vain; sigh, a tear
Or two, perhaps, is all / ask thee, dear,
When / shall pass across the crystal sea.
Now, now, while am here, your ten
derness
l fain would know, your blossoms bright
possess
The glow and fragrance of your loving
thought:
ForI, while quick and wsrm do far more
crave
One tiny bud. one blue forget-me-not,
Than countless roses heaped upon my
grave.
