Railroads and Postofice.

The New York Times Is as skeptical
as this paper is regarding the cost
calculations Of the Postofice Depart
ment. els 1t possible, for example,"
it asks, "that the Government pays
the railroad 50 for carrying a pack
age Of magazines Weighing 100.
pounds from New York to Chicago.
That would be the inference from the
statement Of averages, and the COM
%pensation seems high. II these figures
are right, 1t is very evident that the
Government contracts with the carry
ing companies stand in need Of rad
ical revision" There has been no
substantial change in the weight-pay
for carrying the mails in thirty years,
during which period freight and pas
senger charges have declined heavily.
Within this period the larger rail-
roads have come to receive very large
payments for the use Of postal cars,
and Postmaster-Genera Villas showed
nearly twenty-five years ago that the
Government was paying more for the
use of the cars annually than the cost
Of the cars.-Philadelphia Record.

and you look very sweet, if your frock

washed the dishes in the spring, the
little lady said:
you asked me about fairies. Sup
pose you ask the baby. I put her to
sleep over there in the humming-
birds nest, but she's awake now. Per-
haps she has seen a fairy. Babies do
sometimes, you know"
The little girl peeped in a wee hum
ming-bird's nest that hung on a tree
close by, and there she spied the lit
tie lady's baby. Such a dear baby,
no longer than James tiniest finger,
but as pretty as the prettiest doll!
Her dress was spun Of gossamer spi-
der webs, and her cap was of frost
lace, and her cheeks were as pink as
rose petals, and her eyes were as blue
as the blue of the sky.
ooh, you dear little thing" cried
the little girl, taking the baby up in
her hand. You look like a fairy

The baby laughed, a tinkling little
laugh that sounded like bells. Jane
looked-and what do you think had
happened? There were five fairies
right in her hand! There was fat
Thumbkin, with Pointer standing
very straight just behind him. There
stood Tall Man in his thimble cap.
There was the little lady in her gold
ring. Last of all, there was the dear
baby, so pink and sweet.
Run home, little girl" they all
cried. "You helped US, and we are
going to help you now"

CHURCHES ARE E D
Clergyman Says personal Relig-
ion Cannot Stand Without Forms.

I read with interest your statement
IN one of last Sundays editorials that
one of the modern tendencies is to
substitute a sever days religion for
a one-day religion. There is no
doubt that this is true where relig-
ion is at all strong; but is this tend
sncy really strengthening religion as
religion? Isn't it, on the contrary,
weakening religion-the religion that
Is taught in the churches?
1t may be said that If the tendency
Is in that direction, as long as it
builds up character in the individual
It makes no difference what happens
to forms and dogma of the church;
that these forms do not really make a
man virtuous in his daily life and that
a personal religion" is infinitely
more valuable to the individual.
In opposition to this generally ac-
cepted idea, I venture to say that
where the religion of forms and dog
ma dies a lasting personal" religion
seldom takes its place. Many men
become inspired with virtuous
thoughts when they leave the church,
but how long does this last? No,
something staple, something concrete
Is needed.
DR.. Eliot, for instance, breaches his
modern religion religion really of
opportunism. Take what you can get
to-day for there is no tomorrow
that is his thought. The highest mis-
sion is just to do good here, he says,
and to think of a future reward Is
selfish. Now that may be true, and
it may not be true; but whether it is
or is not such an ideal is not sufficient
to sustain the average person through
the trials of this life.
Most of our knowledge of life to-
day is based upon hypothesis, and
why is not hypothesis of a Supreme
Being as satisfactory as any other?
The theory of spontaneous genera
ton has been exploded, and it is ad-
mitted that all life must come from
life. Nobody has discovered where
the sun came from, and why not ad-
NIT then that there is some Mightier
Hand?.
Wherever human beings are to be
found, they will be found worshiping
some higher thing. 1t may be the
sun, the moon, or a monument; but
- ILL L. .~-.otl;~~ lsohar And
they all have some sort Of form for
their worship. Is not this instructive
faith significant? It means that peo-
pie need religion, and to preserve re-
ligion churches are necessary.-Cler-
gyman, in Washington Post.

Invitations For Tin Wedding.

In celebrating the fifth wedding an
niversary the tin emblem should pre-
dominate throughout the arrange
ments. The invitations may be sent
on tin. and from then ON the metal
s,uould be conspicuous. All guests are
expected to send or bring a gift, but
it is not good form to present any
but the material typified. A piece of
glass at a tin wedding is not correct.
nor need n expect that the hostess
will wish a handsome remembrance.
The funnier the gifts the better, for
it is only with the progress of years,
when silver, glass and linen anniver-
saries arrive, that elegance and for
mality are expected.
When invitations for a tin wedding
are sent the services of a tinsmitn
will be required, for he must cut the
sheet metal into pieces the proper size
to fit note envelopes. The writing
on these must be done with a fine
paint brush dipped into white oil
paint. The lettering will not be diff
cult.
AS the gathering is informal and
the space limited. the hostess may
write:
Mr.. and Mrs. John Smith
want you to come
to make merry at their
Tin Anniversary. Tuesday the 25th.
They will expect you at eight thirty.
Those invited should acknowledge
the invitation in an informal note
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1910-03-02

The hostess should provide such
entertainment as she knows her
friends enjoy. If she decides to give
a dinner or a supper all her energies
should be concentrated on arranging
the table, which must carry out the
metal idea.
The centrepiece should be of white
flowers standing in a tin vessel. 1t
may be surrounded with smilax or
asparagus if wished. The little dishes
holding candies, nuts and small cakes
must be tin, and the usual small sill
yer should be replaced by ordinary
tin kitchen ware. If tin instead of
china plates are used the meal will be
all the meIrier.-Rosanna Schuyler,
in the New York Telegram

First Hospital in New World.

1t is said that the first hospital ever
built in America vas erected by the
Spaniard Cortez in the City Of Mex
leo in 1924. It was endowed out of
the revenues obtained from the prop
critics conferred on him by the Span
ish Crown for his services in the con-
quest of Mexico. The endowment
was 80 arranged that it still exists
and Is paid at the present day. A
supervisor is named by the lineal de-
scendant Of Cortez at present.
In this hospital women occupied
positions as nurses and physicians,
and in their care were all cases of
obstetrics and women's diseases.
Considerable was known by the In
dams of medicine. The Mexican hos
pital is a fine building, with arcades
and courtyards. 1t is an interesting
landmark in the history Of hospital
construction and administration

Remarkable Ruler.

President Diaz of Mexico is n Of
the most remarkable Of living rulers.
His father was an %innkeeper, and the
President is of mixed Spanish and
Italian blood. His rise to fame was
as remarkable as it was rapid, and it
would be difficult to estimate the good
that he has done for Mexico. AL
though he is ar autocrat Of auto
Gratis, he is very democratic, and is
immensely popular among his people.
He is eighty years old, but no one
would think it to look at him, and he
is still as vigorous and as hard a
worker as most men half his age. 1t
is practically due to President Diaz
that Mexico has now an efficient rail-
way system, and he has done a great
deal for the spread of education.-
