BIBLE SOCIETY
DENIES TARIFF
CLOSED PLANT
Officials Declare They Have Taken
No Action Relative to Duty
Free TeStamentS.

That the removal of the duty on
English Bibles by the Underwood tar
if law has not forced the American
Bible Society to abandon its printing
plant in New York City is the decla-
ration by the officers of the society,
who also deny that they are planning
to move the plant to Japan to take
advantage Of cheap labor. Their
statement In full follows:
There have appeared various
statements IN the daily papers to the
effect that, by the passage OF the tar
iff act. which puts English Bibles on
the free list the American Bible So
ciety has been forced to abandon it's
printing plant in the Bible House in
New York City, and has decided to
print its Scriptures in some foreign
country, possibly Japan, in order to
meet the competition of English BIZ
bles printed In other lands where la
Dor Is cheaper
What the effect of the tariff bill,
in placing English Bibles on the free
list, will be can not now be deter
mined. The society has taken no &C
ton whatever with relation to the
matter. It has been in the habit of
printing at the Bible House in New
York all the English Bibles which II
has used in its general missionary
work throughout the United States
and in foreign lands.
Last year It's output of English
Scriptures was 1,444,911 volumes. II
always has sold its Scriptures at cost,
without purpose of profit, that the
poorest might be able to have the
Scriptures at the lowest price posi-
BILE.
The society has existed for nearly
100 years to promote the translation,
revision and circulation Of the Bible
as missionary agency throughout
the United States and foreign lands
giving 1t away to the poor and needy
wherever they are unable to pay for
II.
TT has thus far maintained it's
printing plant In New York City be-
cause in that way it could produce
the Scriptures at lower price than It
could procure them in any other way

THREAT OF PEhITENTIARY

CHICAGO, Oct. 11.-One Of the most
remarkable church functions ever
held took place last night at the Wa
bash Avenue Methodist Episcopal
Church when at a banquet of protest
against the proposed leasing of the
church by the Chicago Home Mis-
sionary and Church Extension So
ciety, ]. ]. Tobias, chancellor of the
Chicago Law School, declared that
the officials of the missionary society
were selling souls for a price.
These pseudo Methodists-Chris-
tians they call themselves-are offer
ing to sell souls to the devil at $12
a SOUL" said Professor Tobias They
accept bids for a church given over
ing of souls for AZ years and the
highest bidder gets the church.
II dare them to do 1t. No one call
ing himself a believer in Christ, pro-
Tossing the doctrine of the Son Of
God, can sell souls which rightfully
belong to God for a price.
why wait for them to auction the
souls of the thousands of men and
women who might embrace the Word
of God? Why shouldn't we start this
auction tonight? l will start 1t right
here by offering to the devil 1877 900
souls for $4,000, putting these souls
in the trust of J. B. Hobbs, president
of the Chicago Home Missionary and
Church Extension Society"
An appeal will be made to the Rock

Pride Gratifying Husbands Tastes and Take
Place Herself

The President arises about this time
and breakfast is served at s.
Hot breads seldom figure on a
White House breakfast menu. Neither
are the sawdust, baled hay or mat
tress- favored cereals, commonly
found on American breakfast tables,
in high favor.
The President prefers eggs, soft
boiled, poached or fried. Bacon, fried
crisp in thin slices, invariably ac-
companies the eggs, which are eaten
with hot buttered toast.
Fried or baked potatoes are another
item in the morning meal, which In
all it's appointments is simplicity L.
self.
Luncheon Also Is Simple.
Lunch, which is eaten at 1880, is
equally simple. 1t usually consists Of
lamb chops or broiled fish.
Mashed or baked potatoes and peas
or beans are the accompanying vege-
tables. while a green salad is a dainty
that invariably graces the President
board both at lunch and dinner.
Rice is another staple dish of the
Wilson's. Mrs. Wilson has a South
ern recipe-a process of steaming
that produces the whole grained re-
suit ordinarily attained only by
chops uey artists.
Plain white bread is the staff of the
nations head. Dessert, too, is a slight
matter, consisting mostly of jelly or
preserves. A large cup of coffee, mi
nus cream, finishes the luncheon pro-
gram Cream spoils the coffee fla
vor for him, the President asserts.
Dinner, however is trifie more
elaborate. Here the family gathers
at 7, usually. for dinner Is an init
mate social function, whether there
are visitors or not.
President ReIaxes at Dinner.
Here the President reIaxes and tells
his merriest stories, for which he and
his daughters, particularly Miss Jes-
sic, are famed among their friends.
This meal is eaten In a leisurely
fashion, and no matter how many
important engagements are scheduled
the President permits nothing to in
terfere with his dinner hour. No
cares of state ever enter the dining
room. Here he is the husband and
father-quite as domestic and infor-
NAL as the humblest clerk in the
service. Business and politics quite
forgotten-he is the typical American
family head.
This meal consumes at least an
hour Marked by no epicurean dell
cacies, 1t begins with cream soup
or a consomme, with celery, olives or
pickles for relishes.
Then comes a heavy meat, such as
thick sirloin, roast beef, lamb or NUT
ton, with mashed or boiled potatoes.
There are other vegetables, seldom
more than two, with the inevitable
green salad. Plain white bread again
appears on the silver salver, with jel-
ly or preserves as a side dish.
Pudding, pie or ice cream, none OF
them concocted in elaborate fashion,

The White House refrigerator IS
one presidential adjunct that hasn't
broken into print to any noticeable
extent
Politicians, wise and otherwise,
may forecast the affairs of state, So
ciety may speculate with some de-
gree of accuracy on the gowns the
mistress of the mansion may wear ut
official functions, but the White
House kitchens yield their savory
sacrets reluctantly.
That the big ice boxes contain only
plain essentials of good American
eating is vouched for by those who
are in intimate touch-not with the
refrigerator particularly, but with the
customs of the Wilson menage in
general.
The Presidents gustatory destinies
are presided over by Mrs. Martha
Mulvane, who came to the White
House in the Taft administration.
But even if she or her understud1es
should seek a wider field of useful
ness elsewhere, there would stllI ne
no dearth of well-cooked food in the

Buttermilk is another staple that
must be constantly on hand. Four or
ave glasses of buttermilk go to the

sional demand for 1t between meals.
At breakfast it is a substitute FOR
coffee. which the President rarely
drinks. Tea is also taboo, except on
rare occasions.
Large quantities of water are con-
sumed by the President, partly be-
cause he likes it and partly because
he believes il is good for him.

form the dessert with after-dinner

There are after dinner cigars for

Wilson Like Predecessors.
President Wilson's simple tastes ac-
cord with those of most of his pred
ecessors. Most of the Presidents,
certainly those within recent years,
have lived on plain. substantial fare.
Arthur, however was an epicure, a
lover of midnight feasts and rare del
icacies; Cleveland was fond of game,
and exquisite cuisine, but for the
most part the presidential attitude
toward dining is one averse to food
frills.
No President in the last fifty years
has been addicted to the use of liquor.
| The only wine cellar that was ever
in the Executive Mansion was in the
garnet. There wines, brandies. cham
pagnes and WHISTLES reposed on rough
shelves. This stock was cleaned out
during the Hayes Temperance admin
istration, and even now that cellar
has disappeared. Presidents now OBJ
tain their wines as they require them,
the stewards having charge of this
supply.
The White House larder is supplied
to considerable extent by patriotic
citizens who see to it that the Presi-
dent has the best there IS The an
rual presentation of Thanksgiving
turkeys Is the periodical subject Of
much comment.
The White House kitchens have
been the domain of a single cook and
an assistant. Only when state dinners
are given Is this small force augment
ed by chef from a club or hotel.
Always White House Hobby.
Presidents have indicated what they
wished to eat; their wives have seen
to it that these cravings were given
due attention, for it has been the hob
by of every First Lady of the Land"
TO rule the menage.
Mrs. Wilson, essentially domestic In
all her tastes, has followed the ex-
ample set by the lovely Dolly Madi-
son.
The White House grocery bill is al
! ways an object of covetous desire
among Washington's best grocers. The
Wilson's bill does not exceed that of
any we'll nourished family in ordinary
circumstances.
The fancy list is not an extensive
one, except when there is a state din
ner to be given, and none of the arti-
cles are purchased in large quanti-
ties.
White House Plate Elaborate.
A brief mention of the china and
plate is essential to the summary of
White House cuisine A full set of
White House china comprises a
breakfast, luncheon, and dinner ser

which might be required by the Chief
Executive Of the United States for the
entertainment of his own family, his

Appetite HO! HO!
TITS a Great Joy
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Are
the Best Appetite Makers Dys-
peptics and Stomach Suffer
ers Can Use.

Appetite is very largely series OF
signals from the stomach. When one
has rousing appetite at the sight or
smell of food the stomach through its
connection with the mind of man is
asked whether the food seen or smell
ed would be welcome.
The stomach if healthy says yes
and at once our mouths water and we
are hungry from desire--keenly, raw
enously hungry. If the stomach be
sick, then we have no appetite and
are actually nauseated.
