~ HERE is not only great laxity in
AV the way in which Sunday ls kept
holy. but there is a growing care
lessness among Christian people, both
in theory and practice; carelessness
which would have made our ancestors
wonder and lament Sunday rides, Sun
day dinners, Sunday entertainments are
all looked upon as perfectly legitimate,
and meetings of various kinds-some OF
them of great moral importance--are
called for this day because their pro-
moters think larger numbers can be
induced TO attend. the day being freel
from engagements. 1t is startling to the
honest observer and the conscientious
Christian to note how many conferences
and anniversaries are held on this dear
day of rest and worship; their purposes
are admiral BILE, but they are not included
in the righteous law, both economic ano
religious, which God has made to rule
the day.
The reasoning is plausible: rs it not a
day for good works? Is not this cause OF
moral living, or aggressive reform. Oh
literary advance. or artistic enjoyment
for the welfare of humanity? And ne
who ventures to take what IS esteemed &c
be a narrow view Though it is really q
broad view for Gods commandment is
exceeding broad, Psalm. 129:90 is crlti-
cised either for his lack of public interest
or for his prejudice. | have counted
lately nearly a dozen meetings held or
Sunday i'm public places. One would not
for a. moment question the excellence Of
the objects in whose interest they were
called OF their Importance, but one must
question whether they We're part of thai
cody and helpful observance OF the
Christian Sabbath to which as God chill
dren we are bound; whether they really
fulfilled the divine law which, for oul
good be it remembered, bids to worship
and rest and personal works of mercy.
Moreover there is a startling movement
to make Sunday partial holiday by
opening Fairgrounds for children, with
restrictions, of course, and under super
vision, and by planning other pleasures
which seems admirable at first blush,
when the idea is to keep children from
the street, but which have only a single
and inevitable tendency. Some splendid
people say, what can you do with the
crowds of foreign children in our streets
They won't go to Sunday school or
church and in the streets they learn all
kinds OF bad things. Is 1t not better to
open schools and teach them or school
yards and give them pleasure The
only answer must be-for it Is useless to
argue In detail-that Sunday is first for
worship and then for rest: that the work
and play Of the week by laws OF healthy
civilization and progress have been found

To Transfer This Design.

DUT cake of soap (laundry
i will do) in a pint of hot
water, stir vigorously and remove
the soap. Saturate this design
with the soap and water mixture,
then remove the excess moisture
by partially drying the saturated
design or by applying sheet OF
blotting paper. Place the mate
rial or fabric to which the design
is to be transferred on a hard, fiat
surface, and lay the design face
down upon the material. Cover
with a dry sheet of thick paper or
two folds of newspaper, and with
the bowl of a tablespoon rub.
pressing hard. until the design is
entirely transferred. being careful
to rub from rather than toward
you.
When rubbing you can see il
enough pressure is being applied
by lifting the corner of the design,
to note how we'll it is taking. Do
not wet the material nor rub the
face of the design with damp fin
gers. To remove the design lines
after the article is completed,
wash in warm water with soap.
The entire process is very simple,
and with little care you can
easily make perfect transfers to
any kind of goods.

TITO develop this design into
real summary effect one
i should transfer it to a very
fragile handkerchief linen.
Outline every portion, flowers,
leaves and tendrils. 1t ought to
be fragile outline when finished.
Next fill in the flower centers
with seedlings This is minia-
ture French knots. Do not make
them too compact. Make the
small designs OF punch work
designated with dotted portions
before beginning any part of the
work. Use fine floss for this pur-
pose and only one strand to each
needleful. You can use a very
large embroidery needle for this
purpose, because the finished de-
signs must have the openwork Ell
feet.
If more finished appearance is
desired, every petal and leaf can
be worked in shadow embroidery.
This would, indeed. be rich look
ing when done. with the other
portions Of punch work and the
seedlings. Do not use compact
embroidery on summer waists in
large design. 1t detracts from
the airy, chic appearance.
This could be transferred to
any shade of linen and worked
wholly in white or color. But
even on a wash fabric. the outline
stitch is preferred. A solid de-
sign would be too heavy in this
pattern for any fabric.

Peil, the Druggist,
Sells Quality Easter Goods.

Every article in the Quality Store
bears the high mark of quality.
Since being in business the proprie-
tor has endeavored to impress upon
the public the absolute necessity and
value of purchasing quality goods
AS consequence the patrons of the
Quality Store have been educated to
this fact and now when Quality Store
is mentioned the name of its progress
sive and enterprising proprietor,
Peil, the druggist, is linked with it.
The Quality Store has a fine and
varied line of appropriate Easter
packages. Some are in the form of
Foss' delicious quality chocolates, in
different size boxes, and by the way
are especially attractive just now.
An appropriate Easter gift would
be bottle of perfume. The Quality
Store has fine line of delicate
odors, all pleasing to the olfactory
nerves, and also to the pocketbook.
They consist of the best on the mar
ket.

without a few Easter post cards.

his post of duty our Commander,

Grand Commander" who "doeth all
things WELL"
Resolved, That the sympathy of
this Post be extended to the sorrow

sincere friendship for one who was
one of Natures noblemen. "His life
was gentle, and the elements so mix
ed in him, that nature might stand
up and say to all the world-this was
man." Furthermore
Resolved, That these resolutions
be placed upon the minutes, and the
colors be draped for thirty days.

for your money when you trade at
their store. When they sell you a
suit of clothes, gents furnishing
goods or an overcoat, they do so
with the expectation that you will re-
turn when in need again. They be-
lieve in quick sales and small profits
and if you need anything in Mems
and Children's Suits, Gents furnish
ings, fancy hats, etc., you will find
it to your advantage to deal with
them. Make it point to shop
around bit before coming to them
to buy clothing. In that way the
comparisons you make will show you
why so many people prefer this store.
The more closely their stock of
clothing and gents furnishings is
examined the more surely it's high
quality and fair price will appeal to
you. A high price doesn't always
mean a corresponding high quality
and many so called bargains are bar
gains in name only. This is a point
to remember. Their Easter line is

I know the quality of the leather

PROF. SURFACE HERE FRIDAY.

Everything is in readiness for the
reception of Professor H. A. Sur
face, State zoologist, of Harrisburg,
and w. ]. Lewis, of Pittston. Both
of these gentlemen come to Homes
dale, to-day, (Friday), March FL,
to assist in organizing the Wayne
County Agricultural Society. They
will also give instructive talks dur
ing the day, which consists of two
sessions, morning and afternoon.
The program outlined in our last
issue will be observed as close as
possible. 1t is subject to changes,
however. Professor Surface is con-
sidered the best authority in the
state of Pennsylvania upon horticul-
tural and agricultural matters and
the coming of a man of his standing
into Honesdale is a drawing card
that ought to fill every seat in the
court house. Mr.. Lewis, who is con-
sidered one of the best orchardists
in the East will present to the farm
ers of Wayne county something that
will be worth coming miles to hear.
The apples from his farm near
Pittston are sent to California,
Louisiana, northwest and in fact all
over the United States.
All interested in fruit growing or
soil culture are requested to attend
the sessions to be held in the court
house on Friday of this week. There
will be something new presented and
it will be given in a bright and in
telligent manner. The meeting is
free and it should be largely attend
ed.
1t is expected that the society will
be organized with over 100 mem
bers. Considerable credit is due W..
H. Bullock and his corps of excellent
helpers for the preliminary work
in making possible the organization
of the Wayne County Agricultural
Society.
