Good Garter Clasp.

Even the softest finished garter
clasps will tear holes in fine stockings
and even tape stays will often be pull
ed out bodily A better support is a
facing around the entire top Of the
stocking OF some soft thin material.
And here is a use for discarded silk
stockings. Take the portion just be-
low the top, which is thinner than the
border and also the least worn part
of the stocking. Cut two-inch band,
and without turning in the edges
cat-stitch IL with fine silk as fac
ing inside the top of the stockings. The
cat-stitching will give with the stock
ing, as plain stitching will not.

SUCCESSFUL QUARTERLY
CONFERENCE

PIKEVILLE, Tenn, Dec. S.-The
first Quarterly Conference for the
Pikeville Station was held Nov 21-22.
The conference was in every way a
success. Rev. j. w. W. Shuler, the
Presiding Elder of the Hartman dis
trict, did most excellent preaching.
His sermon has received many compli-
ments by the thinking and most eleva-
ted minds of the town of Pikeville.
He preached only one sermon on this
occasion, but it was listened to by a
large and attentive audience. To say
that the sermon was masterpiece
does not overpaint or over estimate the
unfolding of the Scripture which he
selected, and the very forceful manner
of it's presentation. His subject was
the TRANSPORTATION of our Lord, which
took place up in a high mountain. He
drew beautiful picture of the noun
tains, both of the Oriental and our
own country. He explained the great
significancy of mountains as used in
the Bible. He took pains to explain
their metaphorical value, and that the
mountain was type of the Church,
and as the mountains are high above
the valleys, and the inhabitants there
of, and protect them against the de-
vastating storms that sweep over our
country, so is the Church of Christ
above every other institution, and or
ganization, and as a lofty tower of
Light set to guide the endangered mar
liner over the angry deep, the Church
stands amidst the billowy oceans of
time, the invulnerable "Pharos' of
spiritual light and safety. He then in
mastery way explained the object of
the two Old Testament saints appear
ing on the mountain The law was
represented in the person of Moses,
the great Jewish legislator, and the
prophets in the person of Elijah, the
chief of prophets, who came to do
homage to Jesus Christ and to render
up their authority into His hands as
He was the end of the law and the
grand subject of the predictions of the
prophets.
Brother Shuler's preaching is the
kind that will edify believers and
awaken sinners. His mind is we'll
stored with useful knowledge, and he
has the ability to apply it. In addi-
tion to his extraordinary pulpit abili-
ty, he possesses very fine social ma.
ture, polished manners, and fine ad-
dress. Few men possess SO many ex-
cellent qualities as he. He is eau.
tious, though decided, and looks care.
fully after all the interests of the
Church. He is very popular here
| among the members of all churches

a fine burst of speed, and the big
audience gave the sturdy old trainer
and the filly round of cheers at the
finish. Mr.. Barnes Is eighty-two
