TO SPLIT CHURCH
Evangelist z. W. Abberly Pleads
for Men to Give Up 0rtho-
doxical Ideas.

Criticism of the modern tendency to
split the Christian church into sectarian
ideas was the main theme OF Evangelist
r. W. Abberly. who conducted a revival
service at Vermont Avenue Christian
Church last night. Dr. Abberly's plea
was directed toward getting men out OF
the orthodoxical ideas concerning religion.
especially when the old and hidebound
ideas have proved to be contrary TO the
word OF God. The subject OF his talk was
Loyalty and love"
"a thief promised paradise" will be the
subject OF his talk at the church tonight.
William Leigh. an evangelist from Akron.
Ohio. who learned to sing in a cathedral
choir in England, will render a solo, The
Precious Story" which he composed dur
ing the course OF a religious revival sew
eral months ago. Mr.. Lelgh's singing is
a feature of the series Of services which
are being conducted at the church. and a
volunteer choir composed OF members Of
the congregation Is assisting him.
Preparations are under way for a mems
meeting to be held Sunday afternoon.
when DR.. Abberly will lecture on Man

SOCIALISMS' GAIN
Is DUE TO TRUSTS
Countess Of Warwick Says Men
Like J. P. Morgan Are Driv-
ing People to It

New York, March 1s-speaking on The
new era in the Old world' at the Hud-
son Theater to-day, the Countess Of War
wick, in discussing socialism. said:
~. Pierpont Morgan Is the John the
Baptist Of our socialistic evangelistS It
Is men like HIN: who are forcing people
every day to turn TO socialism"
The lecture by the countess was the
second of a series she will deliver on a
short tour OF this country and was large
ly attended. With the exception OF a few
men. who were sprinkled about the large
theater. her audience was composed Of
women.
Before the American trusts were or
EaniZed," she continued, socialism was
always treated as an impossibility. We
were always met with the cry: How can
you organize business on a national
basisT Your enormous trusts-the
many others you have here-have shown
how the government could run business
II II should take II UP. The trusts have
been the best boom TO socialism that We
could possibly wish
Speaking on the children OF the thick
ly populated districts, the countess said:
Il come here quite seriously from the
other side OF the Atlantic for the health
OF the children who work here. I de-
plore only that my short stay among
YOU prevents my meeting those in per-
sonal sympathy with these children. You
women can help; you must help, and I
ask you TO think IL over"

By NINE. D'MILLE.

To keep the skin soft and lovely.
gently massage the face, neck. and

iissolving an original package OF
mayatone in half pint OF witch hazel
This is better than powder, for II gives
4 more natural appearance and will
1ot rub off, although il makes the COM
olexion smooth. white and satinlike.
To cleanse and refresh the scalp and
hair, use dry shampoo powder made
by mixing a cupful of cornmeal with a
small original package of therox.
Sprinkle on the head and brush out
thoroughly. Too much water makes
the hair harsh, dry and faded Therox
strengthens thin and weak hair and
produces thick and luxuriant. brilliant
lresses
Pain and worry give one an anxious,
barried look. Many women have told
me that Mothers Salve gave them re-
lief from headache, pains and aches Of
the back or joints, sore muscles,
sprains, bruises. rheumatism, lumbago,
neuralgia and other common affiictfons.
II is easy to use, quick to act and

DON'T THROW AWAY
YOUROL STOCKINGS
There Are Many Ways to Prolong
Their Usefulness.

In these halcyon days of guaranteed
'hosiery-at n very moderate price, too
II can be said with emphasis that IL does
not pay 10 spend much time darning
stockings. When they haYe really begun
on a large heel hole is nothing less than
wicked. The sensible housewife prefers
to put by She ragged socks and stockings
and TO buy new rather than to spend on
prolonging the life OF a couple Of pairs
for two more wearings the time that
would suffice TO make a new outing shirt
or simple tailored waist
But there is no need to throw old black
stockings in the rag bag for want of
ways to use them. FIRST OF all. a well
worn black sock Is one Of the best things
to be had for use in sponginE on dark
clothes with household ammonia or other
cleaning fluid. II leaves no light colored
lint. and is soft and absorbent TO handle.
A supply should be always In some con-
venient place IL the men OF the house.
hold have n way OF wearing black or
dark blue suite for everyday.
Woven rag carpet is no longer a thing
despised. Through the winter many
home lovers return to the old fashion Of
sewing carpet rags. to be woven into
room, as well as for the furnishing of
the summer bungalow. The touch Of
black is most desirable to set of the
brighter stripes. and for this purpose old
black stockings cut round and round in
spiral fashion or as an apple is peeled. TO
make a long strip. will be found useful
to the very toe.
One notable housewife uses stockings
in the mop that she polshes the floors
and wipes Up with. as they are softer
than the rnops usually sold. therefore
save the old stockings.

DR.. WALKER LEAVES HOSPITAL.
Woman Rights Champion Removed
to Hotel Gerard.

New York. March 1s.-Although the
condition OF DR.. Mary walker. the aged
womsn's rights champion. was report
ed unchanged to-day. the patient, in
obedience to her insistent demands. was
removed from the Presbyterian Hospital
TO the Hotel Gerard The doctors fear
pneumonia may set IN.
DR.. Mary's principal objection to re-
naming at the hospital was that she
could not bear to be "coddIed and pamp-
cred by a lot Of female nurses" She
decided she would have a better chance
for recovery in a place where she
could be free from sick thoughts"
Another thing she found fault with
was that the rules OF the hospital re-
qui-ed that all women patients wear
night dresses. When the night dress
was produced on the first night of her
brief stay in the institution Dr. Mary
looked at it with an angry snort.
Take 1t away" she cried, and bring
me a suit of pajamas or wrap me in n
sheet. l know what 1 want TO wear.
and L intend TO wear It. The pajamas
were produced and she dropped Of to

RESIGNATION.

hcSIUN NhIlON.
Published at the request of Mrs. r. B. Buckley
We see but dinly through the mists and
vapors.
Amid these earthly damps,
What seems to us but sad funeral tapers
May be heavens distant lamps.
There is no death! what seems so is
transition.
This life Of mortal breath
Is but a suburb OF the life elysian,
Whose portal we call death.
She is not dead. the child OF our af-
fection-
But gone unto that school
Where she no longer needs our protec-
ton.
And Christ himself doth rule.
Thus do we walk with her. ana keep
unbroken
The bond which nature gives,
Thinking that our remembrance, though
unspoken.
May reach her where she lives.
Not as a child shall we again hold her;
For when with raptures Wild
In our embrace we again enfold her,
She will not be a child;
But a fair. maiden In her fathers man
sion,
Clothed with celestial grace;
And beautiful with all the soui's ex-
pansion
Shall we behold her face.
