ing their former custom of kneeling, for
the less reverential one Of careless sitting.
AS to private devotion, we believe k~neeling
has always been considered the most suita-
BILE attitude. If modern psychology be cor
rect in holding that not only does the mind
control the movements of the body, but,
conversely, the bodily attitude has a cor
responding influence on the mental con-
dition, then surely in prayer--the most
sacred expression of religious faith-a
bodily position denoting reverence and
humility has more than an indirect bear
ing upon a prayerful frame Of mind. To
the western mind there is no position so
expressive Of humility as kneeling. Might
it not be conducive to worship to revive
kneeling as the habit of prayer?-Leslie's

In refutation of the charge that immense
quantities of Brazilian coffee are sent to
Arabia and there labeled Mocha" and
sent to this country and put on the market
under the fraudulent label, the Chamber Of
Commerce Of Alden cites the figures to
show that the entire Arabian and Abys-
sinian crops are comparatively insignificant
in quantity, though the best in quality in
the world.
Alden sends abroad coffee annually to the
value of $4,000, OF which less than one
third reaches the United States. We i'm
port coffee annually to the value Of some
s7O.OO0,OO0 Genuin Mocha is taken by
aristoeratic clubs, splendid hotels, and very
rich people Of the c~offee-drinking nations.
Our imfportAtions of all coffees cost on the
average less than s cents a pound. There
cannot be much Mocha" the real stuff
IN the lot.
Many years ago the seed OF Mocha was
sent TO South America and there planted.
When harvested the best beans were segre-
gated and labeled Mocha: but the coffee
was little more Mocha than the null

one of the rooms. A symetricaI appearance
can also be obtained when the entrance is
in the center with windows to balance the
exterior on each side.
Thu day of small parlors is past, while
the library is still popular with those who
have need for II and are building homes
large enough TO accommodate IT.. It is
seldom that II is included in a small house.
One large, homelike living room, serving
all the requirements of parlor, sitting room
and library is the proper arrangement for
a home of moderate size and cost. A bay
window will always take the boxlike ap-
pearance off OF a room and also increases
the actual floor space besides giving a
pleasant outlook in several directions.
II located on the south side a bay can be
made very picturesque by practically max
ing II into a conservatory of house plants.
There is nothing which gives a room a
more homelike appearance than to see the
sunshine flood into the room through a
wealth Of foliage. One of the principle
items in which the cost can be saved on
square houses is the roof. Here the con-
struction can be reduced TO it's simplest
form, the straight gable roof being the
cheapest. An irregular roof is always ex-
pensive, is more apt TO leak and never
looks as well as one designed along simple
lines.

A square house always costs less than a

All square houses, however, are not alike

terror for a square house. The windows
