EPISCOPAL Congress
CONVENES in DETROIT

Detroit, Mich, May ia discus
sion of methods of healing will be a
distinctive feature of the National
Episcopal Congress, opened in De-
troit this morning. Bishop Wood
cock delivered the inaugural address
of the session. Scores of noted
churchmen are in attendance and the
convention will doubtless prove to
be the most interesting of its kind
ever held.
This evening the congress will en-
bark on discussion of the vital and
perplexing question, "The Relation Of
Christianity to the Healing Arts"
The principal speaker will be the
Rev. DR.. Worcester of Boston. head
of the new Emanuel movement,
which is rapidly spreading over the
country.
The Emanuel movement followers
join forces with the doctors and try
to develop the power of suggestion
for purposes of healing certain dis
orders, generally of the nervous kind.
They also invetigate the problem of
the subliminal self, or the subcon-
scious plane, which is supposed to
exert a strong influence on humanity.
Some of the cures performed in the
Emanuel circles have been quite re-
markable. Before one can submit to
treatment, however, his case must be
diagnosed by regular physician.
Tomorrow morning is to be given
to a consideration of the constructive
value of the higher criticism, and that
evening to the civic mission of the
Church, topic on which Bishop Pot
ter and Mr.. Henry George. Jr.. are
writer's, and Bishop Anderson a
speaker. Their words will carry far
beyond any Congress walls.
Bishop Potter has been much In
the public eye because of the interest
he has taken In public affairs and
the opinions he has held on such mat
ters at temperance. The Subway sa
loon, which he inaugurated with pray
err, is still fresh in the minds of the
people. Henry George is often heard
from in the magazines and newspa
pers on subjects of economic interest
On Thursday morning 1.-THE infiu
ence of history upon theology and re
ligion" is the theme. That evening Is
given to the relation of missions tc
commerce and to diplomacy. Friday
morning the Congress will take up the
place of organized Christianity in
modern life. The devotional session
with the general theme of the "Place
; of Character in Salvation" is placed
4 this year at the close

MARIA MITCHELL.

Among monuments to women in

at time when "woman's cause" was
only in its cradle had made her sex
respected in every European univer-
sity town and in popular esteem for
her brilliant attainments as an as

To Keen Linen,

Does the average housekeeper real.
ize that the surest way to keep linen
is not to use 1t consecutively? Does
she know that, in spite of the original
outlay of money necessary to provide
herself with large stock of linen,
the possession of great many pieces
is In reality the most economical meth
cd? For instance, one woman found
that by using one set of tablecloths
and napkins for six months and then
putting 1t away for years rest, dur
ing which time she levied on her ex-
ira supplies, her napery could be
made to last almost twice as long as
did that of other women. In the same
way this woman was in the habit Of
letting two weeks elapse before she
used each sheet again. And at the
end of two months she put away the
set that she had just been using, and
got from the depths of her linen
closet another set. - Indianapolis

STORY TELLING PARTIES.

Now comes the revival of the lost
art of telling stores, not jokes or an
ecdotes. but thrilling satires which
mean a monologue for twenty to
thirty minutes. From the great coun-
try homes of England the revival
comes. Girls who want to make a
success of the summer are taking
lessons from elocutionists in order to
tell story with proper spirit, and
not too much tone and gesture. Mrs.
Payne Whitney is among the young
matrons who has been training for
story telling. Her supply has been
drawn from the folk lore of the
South Seas, region which she stud
led closely when preparing her most
ambitious work, "The Rose of
Dawn" Nearly all these legends are
a bit blood curdling. Mrs. Jack
Gardner. who never does things by
halves, has been learning a great as
sortment of EgyK n tales which are
warranted to make the hair stand on
end. Society likes new sensations
and these thrillers will produce them

Make Milk Safe.

Scientific Investigations have proved
that milk in raw state should never
be given to children. Those who can
not buy pasteurized milk should pas
teurize 1t at home. This can be done
by observing these simple directions:
bring the milk slowly to a boil,
and when 1t reaches the boiling point
bottle it instantly, cork tightly and
cool 1t.
2-Never feed milk that is more
than twenty-four hours old to an in
FAINT.
3-Keep the milk near ice, and
never leave a n!lk bottle uncorked.
4-Cleanse and scald all bottles be-
fore refilling.
Careful observance Of these direc-
tions will insure against babies con-
tracing diseases from impure milk.

LOVE LETTERS.

There are very few girls that have
not received and written what they
fondly believe to be love letters.
More than three-quarters of these
effusions are not love letters at all,

A love letter is not necessarily a
string of endearments.
Bismarck wrote some of the most

but there was nothing mushy about
them.
Napoleon's letters to Josephine

death their wedding rings for this
service. At the present moment the
curtains of silk inside the tabernacle
are supported by about fourteen gold

on each of them the name of its
donor is scribed.-London Globe.
