The Parted Pompadour.

II woman can arrange pompa-
dour with part in it she is lucky in
deed. This classic style of hairdressing
has come back into first favor.
The hair is not smoothly brushed
back from the parting. We doubt il
even in classic days the lines were so
severe. 1t took the trying days Of the
civil war to invent such severity.
The hair is fuffed out at the sides,
and if one feels that it is barbarism
to roughen the hair from beneath,
which does break its ends and takes
all the luster out of it, then one may
resort to either Of these two methods
use small, thin puffs on string under
the hair over the ears Or soft roll of
malines in the same shade as the hair.
Then at the back twist the hair into
soft figure 8.

A MISTAKEN IDEA.
Liouor Dealers Think Opposition TO
Their Business Is Weakening.

Washington, Dec. 9.-That the wave
of opposition throughout the country
to the liquor trade seems to be reced-
ing was the keynote of the reprts from
various state organizations made TO-
dav at the closing session of the Ma
tional Liquor League. The concensus
OF opinion expressed at the convention
was that the best interests of the liquor
trade would be conserved by having
the number of saloons limited accord
ing to- population. Resolutions were
adopted declaring that "the industry
has been over-legislated. over abused
and over taxed in the furtherance of
creed or cult that is basically un-
American and at absolute varience
with every principle Of liberty, civic
righteousness, economy, commonsense
and common justice" Another resoiu-
ton was presented urging the neces-
sitv for a continuance and extension
of the organization.

BAPTIsTs AT BOSTON,.
Frobems Of Village and County
Church Considered Wednesday.

Boston, Dec. 9-The meetings of the
New England Baptist conference.
which was begun yesterday, was con-
tinued in the Ford building today. The
morning addresses, of which there were
of the general topic: "The Problems
OF the Village and Country Church"
The speakers were Rev. w. A. David
son, of Vermont; Rev. NJ. F. Johnson
of New Hampshire and Rev. J. NJ
English of Massachusetts. At the con-
clusion of Rev. FIR. English's paper, the
subject was placed before the confer
ence for general discussion, the re-
marks being limited to four set phases
of the subject
THE Redemption of the Cities" was
arranged for treatment in the same
manner during the afternoon, two adj
dresses being provided, and discus
sions of three phases taking up the
remainder of the days program. The
conference closed tonight.
In the discussion of "the problems
of the village and country churcn"
Rev. DR.. Davidson pleaded for the sus-
tanning of the country churches, as
they are really the feeders of the city
church. Rev. Mr.. Johnson advocated
greater devotion to the interests of the
farming communities. City churches,
he said, have a closer hold over their
membership than the country churches,
and the bonds of union are best
strengthened by household visitation.
DIR. English spoke on the necessity Of
vitalizing the country minister. men,
tallV and spiritually He should have
a strong personality. The need for
strong men in the ministry. he said. is
greater in the country THANH the city.
