If YOU will send TO Washington and
get the United States Crop Reporter

PRESBYTERIAN
CHURCH NOTES.

Last Sunday morning the pastor
spoke ON the theme, "Quench Not the
Spirit" He brought out the fact that
Christian people instead of being
afraid of the doctrine of the Holy
SPIRIT should earnestly cultivate the
presence and companonship OF the
Spirit. He dwelt upon the facts that
the Holy Spirit was given to the be
lieving people,of God as their teacher
and comforter. Emphasis was also
laid upon the fact that the Spirit may
be quenched by indulgence in known
sin; by indulgence in frivolity; by neg
lecting the means OF grace, especially
Bible study, prayer, and the worship
OF Gods house; by not exercising the
gifts that God has given us.
The topic for the church prayer
meeting tonight will be The Secret
of the Ages Eph. 3;1-9. The special
topic, "The Influence of Paul upon
Civilization will be presented by
Mr.. A. V. Wilson. Miss Florence
Rozema will sing.
At the Baptist church last Sunday
morning the 121st Psalm and Luke
II were read for lessons. The sub
ject chosen by the pastor. Rev. J. w

SHADED SILK STOCKINGS.

The new stocking is nothing if not
sensational. The rank and file took
to wearing sheer black silk hosiery
which appeared in the department
stores at popular prices-and horribly
sleazy weaves, reinforced half way up
the leg with cotton-and fashionable
women demanded something different.
The shaded silk stocking is patrician
affair not to be had under three or
four dollars the pair. The darkest
part of the stocking is at the foot, the
color gradually shading to lighter
tint until at the top of the stocking it
reaches very dainty pastel tone.
Taupe and gray silk stockings are the
exclusive favorites just now and these

The Turkish Terms.

Constantinople. Jan. 30-In it's re
ply to the joint note of the powers the
Young Turk government asserts itself
boldly. Apart from proposals to di-
vide Adranople and a plea for the re-
tention of the Aegean islands the new
government takes advantage Of the ac
casion to press for relief from the fet-
ters of tariff and foreigners extra
territorial rights, under which the
Turk long has chafed
THE ottoman government does not
hesitate to recognize that the con-
clusion of peace corresponds with the
hopes Of all says the note, "and it is
desirable to put an end as soon as
