pisappearina Home Life.

The flat dweller ought not to keep a dog, prefers not to keep a cat, cannot have garden, has no chance of keep ing house, has no possible place for memories and. most emphatic of all, has no use or accommodation for babies. Although fl may be possible to make homes without kittens or babies or flowers or memories or eupboards. the spirit of home is hard to woo and win without any of them.-- Fortnightly Review.

TOGGERY OPENING
IS GREAT SUCCESS
Souvenir Given Every Visitor to the
Store. Decorations Were Well
Arranged.

one of the most successful formal
openings ever pulled off in the city
was that of yesterday afternoon
when the ladies' and gentlemen's
Toggeries were opened to the public.
For several days the opening has
been advertised quite extensively and
the result of it all was shown yes
terday. as the many ladies crowded
the store practically all afternoon.
The management had anticipated a
crowd Of considerable size, and had
employed additional help. However.
it was not the primary intention to
sell any great amount of goods, but
to show the stock and become es-
tablished in the new building. Aside
from the selling clerks, Mrs. c. w.
Conger and Mrs. Geo. johnson were
present to assist in receiving the
ladies and showing them over the
store.
one feature Of the opening was
that Madame whitney, with the
ROYAL Worcester Corset company,
was present, giving demonstrations
of the superiority of her goods. Ma
dame Whitney is direct from the
coast, but has been with the Royal
company for years as a demonstra-
tor
The decorative effects were de-
cidedly well arranged with the pink
and green predominating, the latter
color of course being in honor-pf

served TO increase the color scheme
of the windows, while the entire
decorative arrangement showed "a
great amount Of care.

CHURCH LIFE PRESTIGE
IN TOWN OF TEMPE
It Is Being Greatly Accumulated by the
Union Revival Services.

The union revival meetings at the
Goodwin opera house are still accom-
plishing much good. Tuesday night
there were several decisions for Christ.
Each night many people testify to the
personal blessings received during
these meetings, and the hope inspired
for the churches of Tempe. The va
rious pastors also have given public
expression to their belief that this
union effort is doing much to accen-
tuatc the necessary prestige of the
church life in the town, and that the
work is being made easier for the
future There will be three services
again today. At 2:3O p. m. a continu-
alton of the second coming will be
the subject. Children's meeting led by
Mrs. Forman at p. m. and the even
ing service at 1880 O'Clock. All Chris
tian people are urged to be busy these
last days of the meeting in gathering
the ripe harvest. The worth Of a soul
is too great for an ordinary day Of
mere routine to stand in the way.
How can Christians sleep when men
and women are dying in sin.
Mr. Forman's plea last night was an
earnest one. from Matthew 27:22:
What Shall / Do With Jesus?" He
said in part:
There are two forces at work in
the world today. the evil and the good.
The evil destroying, tearing down. ruin
ing human lives; the good enriching.
ennobling, lifting up fallen humanity.
There comes a time in the life Of
h..
whether he win be ruled by the evil
power which is under the control Of
Satan. or whether his life shall be con-
trolled by the good. which is in Christ
The question Of the text tonight is
direct to each one. What Shall l Do
With jesus Shall | crown Him as
king or reject Him as ruler i'm my life2
PLATE said I find no fault i'm Him.
and his better nature said, Receive
Him. but the crowd said. You are
not our friend. you are not Caesars
friend, and you must lose worldly
power if you stand up for Jesus And
there are persons here tonight afraid
Of the crowd and so refuse 10 take a
stand for Jesus. Plate said. L will

day are trying to compromise with
sin. They cut out swearing. or steal
ing. or other fragrant sins. attend
church and vote for prohibition, and
think thereby to merit salvation. But
you must crown Jesus king of all or
you do not crown Him at all What
shall I do with jesus Crown Him
as king Of my life. Why? Because
He presents the only perfect character:
because He loved all that was pure
and holy.
1T is sin that opposes. The drunk
ard does not believe in purity: the
thief does not believe i'm holiness: the
anarchist has no use for a perfect
character. Only in Jesus Christ do
we find our ideal. See how He is hon
ored in heaven. by the angels and by
the Father Himself The greatest and
noblest characters in the world have
been Christians; such persons as
Blackstone. Victoria, Gladstone, Wash
ington. Lincoln. Lee. Mckinley. Then
il these realized their highest ideal in
Jesus, should not we crown Him as
the controller Of our lives?"
