Especially a women's session was tina
of Thursday afternoon, the first part o.
which was the anniversary of the
Woman's Foreign Missionary Society
Mrs. II a. Clifford of Winthrop presid
ing. The address of the afternoon was
by Miss Mabel Hartford, native of New
Hampshire, who has been for twenty five
years a missionary in China. At the
outset Miss Hartford endeavored TO give
her hearers an understanding that China
is not so much different from America
as many suppose, and that the people OF
China are lust folks" after all. Fol
nearly an hour she told very interesting
ly Of the educational and religious work
done there by the missions, in which she
had part.
The second part of the afternoon ses.
sion was devoted to the anniversary OF
the Board of Conference Claimants,
with an appeal in behalf Of the fund fol
the aid of retired ministers, their wild
ows aud orphans, by Rev, E c. Clemans,
d. D., the field representative. DR.
Clemans has a vigorous and somewhat
picturesque style of delivery, and held at
tentiou without difficulty. In plain
fashion he set forth the impossibility OF
the average minister saving from his
small salary the means with which to
provide foT old age, and the duty OF
pensioniug those who have spent their
life ia the service of the church. While
at present the funds are inadequate, he
hopes that in about fonr years such an
endowment may be available that all
claimants shall be assured of living
pension.

about "giving up the work." but with
the great revival possibilities in

IL any one had an idea that foreign
missions was necessarily dry topic for
the average man, be would have been
disabused of that notion Thursday even
ing, when the anniversary of the Foreign
Missionary Society was held, Rev. Will
liam Wood presiding. The address of
the evening was by Rev. w. +. Oldham,
ID. d., corresponding secretary of the
Board of Foreign Missions, of New York,
and was one of the rare treats of the
conference.
DR.. Oldham has spent many years in
missionary work in southern Asia, and
understands the people and their needs
well. He was for time bishop of the
Philippines, and (Ghough he did not
mention il himself gave up that posi-
ton for a much less remunerative one
because he felt that he could do the
cause more good. AS a speaker he is OF
impressive delivery, and his mastery o I
the English language is a delight. But
more than that, be is man of intense
devotion to his work, and broad mind
ed man, who can see beyond the results
OF the day or the year, and see the big
ger thing.
His description Of the recent astound-
ing awakening of China was highly
Illuminating and informing, even to the
student of events, and hardly less 80
the presentation of the facts regarding
the unrest in Iadia. His appeal to the
Christian world, and especially to the
Methodist church, TO meet the supreme
crisis in these great countries, such as
there has never been before nor may be
again, was intense in its earnestness.
People asked, said he, whence came
this sudden marvellous awakening and
advance in old China, supposed TO be the
Rip Van Wrinkle of the nations; and he
answered by saying that 1t was the result
of the seed which for nearly century
the missionaries have been sowing, put
ting into the minds and hearts OF these
people the ideals of Christian civiliza-
ton. But no brief outline can do justice
to this informing and powerful address
At the devotional services OF Friday
morning, Bishop Henderson took As th'
kevnote of his talk ON soul-saying, "Be
/ Gin at jerusalem" and illustrated i
with many instances Of results accom-
plished in his own work and that o.
others BY direct appeal among their owl
people.
In the business session OF the forenoon
tbe matter OF the distribution OF th'
minutes was taken up and threshed out
There was quite lot OF earnest discus
sion, and considerable time was &C
Icupisd. The result was finally sort o
Ieompromise, the distribution being or
dsred neither on the basis Of the pastor

The Very Latest.

/ 000, 600; England IS billions and
France 60 billions. Second in national
wealth, Germany, however, ranks
fourth in the per capita wealth of its
population. If all Gernany's wealth
were equally distributed each man, wo-
man and child woald have about $l100.
In France each would have $1425,
where the per capita wealth is highest
in the world England and the United
States dispute which has the greater
per capita wealth. The English say
they could distribute between $3.50
and 1885 to each man, woman and
child, while in the United States each
would receive 1890.
The annual income of the German
people is given by Hefferich as ap-
proximately $4,000, 100000 Approx
mately $4,000, 100000 is expended an
nually for public purposes. The Ger
man people, says Hefferich, save about
one billion dollars annually, which to-
gether with the automatic increased
value of property adds close to three
billion dollars a year to the national
wealth in aggregate. Hefferich shows
the kaiser that Germanys wealth has
practically doubled since he assembled
the throne.

divided attention to the wearer even
in this age of lavish and elaborate
color schemes and circus effects.
About the Petticoat.
For the occasions when petticoat
is absolutely indispensible-and there
are a few such, even in these days Of
unveiled limbs-an ideal garment is of
snugly fitting silk tricot with a fiounce
of silk, chiffon or lace to suit your
whim. While these petticoats are a
trife expensive, their durability and
excellent fit make them well worth the
initial expenditure.
AS a change from the ubiquitous
white tulle and net frills and tichus
the same effects, worked out in tulle of
black, are very chic. Another touch
to differentiate the lace or net frill
outlining your neck, is a heading of
inch-wide fur banding next the skin.
And speaking of skin-remember you
must keep it that desirable sallOw tone.
For everything must have it's yellow
CLINT.
With sallow skins, large stomachs,
and fiat chests as the three essentials
to beauty, whatever are our standards
of pulchritude coming to?
