There is money in advertisement writ

That night Mrs, Adams gave George
Hamilton an advertisement Of Bar
gain Day and Companys" goods, crude
certainly, yet showing that she HAD
caught the idea of successful advertise
mcnt writing. Mr.. Hamilton in earlier
days had himself been a writer Of adj
Ncrtisements and was well fitted to
teach the art TO an apt pupil. In
month the lady was a capable writer in
this field, and in a year she possessed
a good income.
Despite the opinions Of the man of
experience, that talents should in
yarlably be used for profit, Mrs, Adams
had her own views about hers; so it
happened that many little poem COM

received neither money nor fame for

Once she met the clerical editor He

for he too, could make a sacrifice to his
religion. He called her sister" and
wondered where he had seen her be-
lore, having a good memory for faces,
but he did not connect her with his
almost forgotten pastorate in Delhi
Mrs Adams did not feel hurt. Con-
tact with the world Of business had
shown her for how little any one in
diyidual counts, and the unreasonable
ness Of expecting a man who had met
thousands Of persons all pretty nearly
alike in his estimation, to remember
one of the mass. She was too well
bred TO remind him where they had
previously met, but wisely took up the
acquaintance on a new basis-that of
their mutual interest-temporary on
MS side, abiding on hers-in a strug-
DIlng church in which both cheerfully
consecrated a measure of their Cod
given talents-and forgot the business
jar which had once threatened to
shake her faith. For her religion was
deep and true, and dominated even
her judgments.
Six months later, having found a
letter from Elizabeth Eaton Adams
among some forgotten papers, 1t did
not occur to the Reverend Edward Bar
stow that the writer was the Mrs.
Adams who was largely responsible for
the now steady growth of a church of
his own denomination on the West
Side, or that he had ever given her

doesn't hurt one, these two went their
separate ways in peace, and the man
OF experience was never aware that
he was a good Samaritan. -Waverley.

but some of them have force, and
the probability is strong that the pol

PIPE ORGAN INSTALLED
Edward Kreiser Pleased Audience at
First Christian Church.

Edward Kreiser, the Kansas City or
ganist who has inspired large audiences in
the leading cities of the country by his
masterful control of his instrument, gave
Topekans a treat last night on the occa-
sion of the installation recital of the new
$4,000 pipe organ of the First Christian
church.
The large number present were delight
ed with both the clever manipulation of
the Hutching-VOey organ by the musician
and the instrument itself with its eX-
tremely sweet tones, and great range.
Mr.. Kreiser was assisted by Mrs. George
w. Parkhurst, who always is enthusiast
ically received in Topeka, and Mr.. Glen
wood Jones, a young tenor who recently
has come into prominence in musical cir
cles in Topeka.
Mrs. Parkhurst has a clear high So
prano voice, and Costa's Recitation, and
Arias from ELI were sung by her in a
of the Seraphs were among the heavier
manner which delighted her hearers.
Claimants Funeral March and Hymn
ecuted with such exactness as to show
up to advantage the musicians mastery
over the instrument.
Cradle Song composed by Mr.. Kreiser
was light and airy. The accompaniment
suggested the swinging of the cradle.
Then Meyerbeer's Shadow Song, a bril-
liant aria, was one that especially ap-
pea1ed to the audience. In the opera
Dinorah Is Discovered out under the
ing to her shadow, the tones of the song
echoing in the distance.
Among the other heavier pieces played
were F'uge in D Major, by Bach; Ruben
STEMS ''Kamennoi Ostrow," and Grand
Fantasia on Themes from 'Tannhauser. -
