women and girls that are members
OF churches than men and boys aud
the move is being fnaugurated to
cut this difference to great extent
and il possible eliminate 1t altogether.
During the summer teams OF expert
gospel workers viii work In the prin-
cipal cities Of the country and West
Virginia may be included in the States

TO 20 per cent of the pay of officers
of similar grade in the regular army
The pay of privates is fixed at Is
Ter cent of the scale of the regular

ton work among the militia of the
various states. 1t is said that UNI
der the provisions of this bill no
retired officers will be eligible for
this service but that active officers

AGAIN THE MoTHER-IN-LAW.
Under Fire In Several States Where
Divorce Proceeding Are On.

At present the mother-in-laW is un-
der fire from many quarters. In varl-
Gus States divorces are pending where
practically the whole issue is that the
mother-ia-law is at the bottom of the
whole trouble. 1t is a situation which
calls for calm consideration. There
has been too much temperament in
the past. In fact, it seems hard to dis
Gus it without betraying some emo
ton. almost every man and woman
has had a mother-in-law. We do not
think that they are happy who have
escaped this dispensation of Provi-
dence, but we have much sympathy
for those who in this progressive age,
have a long string of them. No man
can achieve distinction in society
without three divorces, and this sim
ply adds to his mothers-in-law by this
number.
1t is a curious fact that in these
days it is not the man who complains
of his mother-in-law. He has been
tanned too we'll for that. In the state
.cf bondage which husbands now en-
JOY they dare not open their mouths
on the subject. 1t is the wives who
kick about the mothers of their hus-
bands. There all the dishouor lies.
II is most astonishing but true that
mothers think more of their sons as
a rule. than of their daughters.
No mother can believe that her
daughter has any common or nncom-
mon sense; that she has any intelli-
gence or ability. But her devotion to
her son, especially her eldest, is one
Of the things which have made Count
less millions of brides mourn. Wom-
ans inhumanity 10 women has dis
rupted many a family which starte d
out as If it might be a success.
We may admit that the mother-in-
law is a disturbing element, but for
the life of us we do not know why.
We approve OF the mother-in-law. She
is an institution which must be locked
upon with the highest favor. But as
they are particularly well able TO care
for themselves we are not interfering
in the fight. We only desire to call at
tention to the fact that there are as
many fathers-in-law as nothers-in-
low, but no one ever head a com
plant against the male variety. This
is TO the credit of the male sex. We
do not make trouble. We simply bear
il and suffer in silence.

thus enabling the management to
serve pies and coff free to all. There
were pies in almost endless variety
and great abundance. and they We're
good, too, and so was the coffee These
were served to the multitude after a
pleasing program was been rendered,
and whetted the apo tite far what was
TO come.
After Rev. c, S. Trump had made a
brief address Of welcome the Cresc mt
Orchestra, Miss Emma Staley leader,
played a selection. Then Mrs. Harry
s Elliott sang solo followed by an
''Elocutionary Pie by five young la
dies, namely, Misses Mary Comrey,
Mary Walker Rose Zill. Agnes Zim-
norman and Daisy Smith. This
was one of the hits of the evening.
Then followed a lot OF pretty tableauX.
Miss May Siler sang solo very sweet
ly and Mr. Ward Nicklin recited very
well. After a wei executed violin solo
by Miss Mildred Kimmell there was a
song by Mr.. Harry NJ. Grove Miss
Sallie Aler favored the audience with
a recitation that brought down the
house, 50 to speak.
A well performed selection by the
orchestra concluded the program and
then all attacked the pie tables This
brought about a happy comminglilg of
the people in social way and thus a
delightful hour or more was spent till
