GETTING AHEAD OF SCANDAL
Peace and Dignity of Congregation Sc
cured by Recommendation
Made to Pastor.

Parson Henderson, an evangelist OF
color, was caught one bright morning
holding the hands of one Of the eve
lambs of his congregation. who was a
very popular young lady, and it Great
ed quite a stir among the colored pop
ulation, relates a writer in Norman E.
Mack's National Monthly So the par
son was brought up for trial and was
questioned by the officers of the
church as to what he meant by his
action, and this is what he had to say
in answer to the question propounded
to him: my brudders. you have
seen these great pictures, l suppose,
so you know dat the great Shepherd
am always pictured with a lamb Of
his flock in his arms"
Eyes, sab, parson, dat am So" ad-
mitted Deacon Jones.
Den, Brudder Jones, what am
wrong in the shepherd of his flock
holding a lamb in his arms?"
This was too much for Brudder
Jones, so he proposed the officers of
the church have a call meeting that
afternoon. After the point was dis
cussed fully the following resolution
was adopted:
Resolved, Dat for the future peace
and dignity Of the congregation dat
the next time ParsOn Henderson feels
called upon to take lamb Of his flock
in his arms. dat he pick out a ram
lamb"

Is young yet, but when he is fully de
veloped with a mature growth OF

No Excuse This Time.

The Democratic wool bill of last year
proposed a reduction of 80 per cent. in
the tariff rates on wool, and it passed
the House by vote Of POI to 100. The
same bill has again passed the House,
this time by a vote of 1s9 to 90.
When he vetoed the bill last year
President Taft gave as his reason the
fact that the tariff board had not made
its report. Now, in the light Of the
tariff boards report, the Republicans of
the House propose a wool bill calling
for a reduction Of 40 per cent in Sched-
ule K, or just two per cent less than the
bill which the president vetoed
The tariff board, therefore, vindicates
the Democratic position on wool, if such
vindication were necessary. The Demo
Gratis knew. long before the tariff board
was created. that the wool rates were
too high, and the President knew it
also, for in his speech at Winona, MINI,
he characterized the Payne-Aldrich
wool tariff rate as indefensible.
As things now stand, neither the
president nor the high protectionists
will have any excuse for opposing the
present bill, and if any Of them do stand
in the way Of IFS final passage, they win
convict themselves Of trying to grant a
special privilege. namely, the privilege
Of robbing the consumer, to the trust
millionaires.

"On what do you base your esti-
mate of their character?" her hus-
band asked.
Fences" said she. "Just look at
Mr. Browns fence. He has kept all
the ugly posts and CROSSROADS on his
own side and has presented the
smooth finished surface to us. But
you don't catch Mr.. Smith doing that.
No, indeed. He looks out for num-
Der one and keeps the niee side for
himself, while we get all the rough
patchwork"
But that is not Smiths fence" her
husband argued. ct is ours"
"Ours?" she echoed. How does
that happen?"
1T happens through legal statute
which provides that every man who
wants his property fenced in must
build part of the fence and keep the
ragged edges on his own side. That
Is the law"
How perfectly ridiculous" she
said. eff we continue to live in the
country isn't there some way it can

No Occasion for Surprise

This story is told of Forrest, the
great tragedian:
Forrest was playing in Richard
III" and the part of Catesby had to be
taken by a low comedian, who saun-
tered on the stage at the wrong mo-
ment and uttered the famous words,
my lord, the duke of Buckingham is
TAKEN" in the wrong place.
Forrest clenched his fists in rage,
but otherwise took no notice of the
remark.
Later on the comedian repeated the
words in the right place, and when
the king expressed surprise at the
news Catesby folded his arms, walk
ed boldly down the stage, and re
marked to the great actor in loud
tones:
II told you so before, Mr.. Forrest,
but you wouldn't believe me-"

Peach Sauce Preserved-Use
thoroughly ripe fruit. Pare,
stone and cook slowly an hour.
Add sugar in proportion of three
fourths pound to each pound of
peaches. For immediate table
use this will not require very
much cooking. But for putting it
up, it must become dark in color
and free of juice. Seal while hot.
Peach Tapioca.-Soak cup of
tapioca over night. Peel and cut
up 10 peaches. Add a cup of
sugar and stew until tender. Boil
the. tapioca in two cups of water
until clear, then stir the stewed
peaches into it. Remove from the

off one hair at a time until the de-
sired shape is reached. A friend
of mine who found this rather ex-
pensive, does it for herself, using
one of her brothers safety razor
blades. She cuts the hairs off one
by one, using no soap and water,
for that would make them stiff.
She tells me she only has to do
this about once a month, and her
eyebrows are very much admired.
l do not blame any girl who has
very light scraggly eyebrows for
darkening them. The best thing
to use for this is mascara, a water
color. Put it on very carefully,
using a little brush that comes
in the box with the color. This is
perfectly harmless and if used
with discretion cannot be detect
ed, but you must train your eyes
to detect the first bit of paint on
your skin. Just lightly darken
each hair.

New York stock Market.

Wall ST., New York, March 2o.-STOCKS
Impetus was given to the buying move
Ynent in the stock market in the second
hour today on receipts of cables indicating
a speedy termination of the English coal
strike, definite announcement of an ad-
vance in copper metal to 10 cents was
another bull argument. American Canad-
ian preferred sold within a fraction of
par and a score of issues had gained from
leaders United States Steel was the most
backward but later it moved forward
with the rest of the list
Bonds were steady.
Railroad stocks participated to great
er extent than usual in the upward move
ment. Bull operators were encouraged by
this development and there also was sig
nificant broadening out of speculation into
other quarters. United States steel rose
to 673s and Amalga4nated Copper to 1914.
In the railroad section, some OF the Coal-
ers and Western issues ruled about a
point higher.
Copper stocks were the feature at the
opening of the market today. Amalga-
InatedUta h Copper and Anaconda, all
scoring substantial fractional gains: The
demand was broad, however, and en-
braced most railway and Industrial Shares.
Canadian Pacific was up point with a
similar gain for United States realty.
United States common and preferred ana
both made initial gains, as did also the
Hill and Hartman railroad stocks me
volume of business was moderately large.
Activity diminished soon after the open
ing but prices as a whole held. The
strength of the Coppers resulted from the
probability of another advance in the
price of the metal, and the rise IN the
western transcontinentaI railroads was
ascrfbed to advices from various parts OF
the west, which pointed to prospects OF an
eal-around trade revival.
Large blocks of Reading were absorbed
and it improved steadily until it touched
1854.
Sentiment on the Coal stocks was helped
in a measure by the collapse of the for
eign strike. Some of the industrials show
ed the effect of profit taking but the
recognized leaders were all sustained.
