One of the most interesting meet
ings of the Woman's Board of Mis-
sions was that held yesterday after
noon in the parlors of Central Union
Church. Aside from the regular re.
ports that we're read the ladies listen
ed to reports by missionaries, one
from Spain and the other from the
Himalayas in India.
The devotional services were car
ried on by Miss Gulick Both the
report of the secretary and treas
urer were read.
Mrs. Richards spoke briefly upon
the Mission study classes that are to
take place during the lenten season
These classes viii be held every
Monday afternoon from four until five
O'Clock, from the third of February
till the thirteenth of March. These
classes will be held in the different
churches. The first meeting win
take place at Central Union Church,
the second at the Methodist Episeo-
pal church, the third at the Christian
church, the fourth at the Davies
Memorial in Saint Andrews, the fifth
at Central Union, and the sixth and
last at the Davies Memorial. Mrs.
Richards atid that the churches inter
ested In these classes are anxious to
have a large attendance, and in
speaking of them said that she hoped
that the ladies would set aside the
Mondays of lent. 1t was also sug-
gested that the ladies secure copies
of Robert Spears, THE Light of The
World" These will be placed on
sale at the Crossroads Bookshop and
may be had for a all-price. If the
ladies who intend to take up this
study have some knowledge of the
subjects to be lectured upon they
will probably get more good from
them.

THE FARMER IN HIS OWN LIGHT

Recently an extended article was
published in a weekly magazine tell
ing how the farmer, Injuries himself
by crooked dealings in the sale of
his products, especially as regards
fruits. The article in question begins
with an endeavor to answer the ques-
ton, What is the farmers worst
enemy?" 1t ends by saying that the
INSCRIPTIONS farmer is the worst
enemy the farmer has.
The article made its application
largely to the sale of apples, straw
berries and other fruits, citing in
stances of where certain cities and
sections had lost practically all their
fruit trade by fake packing. Refer
ence was made to the manner IN
which apples are packed so that "A
barrel or case appears to be choice
fruit, though only the top layers are
of that kind.
Undoubtedly the sale of fruit has
been hurt in this manner but it is
practically abandoned by all reputa-
BILE fruit growers. Such dishonesty
brings its own punishment to the
farmer. The farmer who practices it
is standing in his own light 1t is
unfortunate that there are any farm
ers who will continue to use such
doubtful practices.
Not only this kind of farmer is an
enemy to agriculturists but also the
farmer who farms half-heartedlv.
Every shiftless farmer should be an
object lesson to every other farmer
not to adopt such methods, but it is
too often true that the bad example
is easier for some farmers to follow
than the good one. These worst en-
emies" of the farmer should be ell
minated by the farmer himself.

New York Cotton.

New York, Jan. 27.-Cotton futures
opened steady at a decline of 5
points on January, but generally to
6 points higher on covering and re-
newed support from trade brokers.
The opening price was decidedly bet
ter than due on cables, which had re-
flected continued uneasiness over tn J
Balkan situation, and prices eased off
right after the call, but later firmed
up on continued bull support, with
active months to points net high
e' during the middle of the morning
Rather more optimistic reports as to
the tariff revision outlook and en-
couraging reviews of the dry goods
situation from some of the large
western distributors probably helped
the advance here.
After showing a net advance of 3
to II points on the active old crop
months trading became less active
and prices eased off 4 to 5 points
from the best under realizing late
in the forenoon. Spot quiet. Middling
uplands 1905; nominal.
Renewal of bull support and cover
ing sent active old crop positions
about 10 to IA points higher during
the early afternoon, but the market
was rather quiet later with prices re-
acting five or six points.

DANGEROUS CALOMEL
GOING OUT OF USE
A Safer, More Reliable Remedy Has
Taken Its Place in the Drug Store
and in the Home.

A few years ago, men, women and
children took calomel for sluggish
liver and for constipation. They took
risks when they did so, for calomel is
a dangerous drug. Your family doc
tor will be the first to tell you this if
he discovers you dosing yourself with
calomel.
But the drug trade has found a SAT-
err, more pleasant remedy than calomel
in Dodsons Liver Tone.
Howell-Prather Pharmacy tell us
that their drug store sells Dodson's
Liver Tone in practically every case of
and liver trouble where
calomel used to be taken.
Dodson's Liver Tone is vegetable
liver tonic that absolutely harmless
for children and grown people. 1t
sells for 80 cts. a bottle and is guar,
anteed to be entirely satisfactory by
Howell-Prather Pharmacy, who will
refund your money with smile if It
does not give quick, gentle relief with
out any of calomel unpleasant after
effects. 49,.

"OFFICER GOO"

A young millionaire globe trotter re-
turning home to find his bachelor
quarters occupied by burglar, who,
not satisfied with having Appropriated
the millionaires name and getting
himself engaged to a pretty society
girl on the strength of it, is rapidly
disposing of a fine collection of paint
ings gathered by the aforesaid mil
lionaire from the art centers of the
world.
This is the situation when the cur
tain goes up on the first act of off
Ger 666," the new farce which Coha1
& Harris will present at the Opera
House Thursday, Jan 9pth.
How the real millionaire regains
possession of his home and name, and
how he eventually wins the hand and
heart of the sweet young thing who
has plighted her troth to a member o.
the light-fngered gentry under the i'm
preston that he is a simon-pure scion
OF wealth and social position, is left
to the telling of the players who peo-
pie the cast of the new farce, which
is a big and popular laughing sue
cess.
In working out the story of the
play, the rich young man induces a
policeman on his block to lend him
his uniform, and while he is masquer-
aiding as a copper" to catch the bur
glar thesreal officer becomes the mill
lionaire's cook The burglar, in the
meantime, is allowed to continue in
possession of the bachelors quarters,
but is eventually trapped and compell-
ed to return his plumber All these
events are working out with speed and
precision during the three acts in
which Augustin MacHugh, the author
of Officer &C.," takes to tell the story
that is said to be chuck full of surpris-
ing situations, smart chatter and

AS to whether the unfortunate wom-

says: Il say unhesitatingly that in
the vast majority of cases she is Il

women are merely tools in the hands

run for profit, and the profit is large.
l. is my belief that less than % per
cent. of the prostitutes in this country

equally good chance to lead a pure
life. That they have been dragged
down into the mire in such large num-

and lack of training, the desire to

a few interested friends, and this will
continue to be the case until a larger

REHABILITATION
Of THE 7. N. c. A.
NOW IN sight
MEETING HELD LAST NIGHT
Solution of Problem Seems
Hopeful Now

What is believed to be a solution of
the local Y. NJ. c. A. problem was
reached at the meeting of the board
of directors and others held at the
Presbyterian Sunday school room last
night. To all present the ultimate re-
suscitation and re-establishment of the
local Y. NJ. c. A. on the basis upon
which such work should be conducted
seems to be assured.
Every phase of the present cam
paign to raise the Y. NJ. C. A. fund was
discussed at the meeting last night.
and discussed as fully and completely
as could be desired. No stone was
left unturned in order toe larify he
situation and to put each one present
in possession of the facts as regards
the conduct of the past affairs of the
association and the manner in which
il is hoped to conduct them in the fu-
ture as soon as the organization can
be set upon its feet again.
The plan adopted last night is to
pay up past due interest on the bonds
at once so as to care for this part of
the work, None of the money which
has been recently pledged will be
used for this work, as it is intended
to have the entire amount of the
money needed to pay all Indebtedness
and to place the association in good
running and self-sustaining condition
before any of that money so pledged
is asked for This campaign to COM
plete the pledging of the fund will be
taken up within a month or two, at
which time the work will be pushed 70

U. S. NAVY IN MOTION PICTURES.

L. 5. NAVY IN MOTION PICTURES.
"A Protege of Uncle SAM" is a far
more valuable offering than may be
at once apparent. Reflection will prove
it and it will do a heap of good The
best thing it shows is the navy's value
to the United States, simply and sole,
ly as a training school for men. It
tells an optimistic, wholesome story of
the regeneration Of a rather wild
youth, using the discipline and train
ing that Jack Tar gets as the means.
1t is convincing, for it is true. The
scenes were taken on board one of
the big ships and show, somewhat
idealized, yet fairly, what a sailors
life is. AS showing this, it gives what
is not only interesting but valuable
information, especially since it sug-
6eSlS SoOu use IJI II. Inc picture
will not only help the navy, but it
will help many boys who want to
make something of themselves ami
can't, and may help many parents who
din't know what to do with some I'M
ruly son who has much good in him,
but needs training. For its own good
the national government should help
this picture along. 1t tells a good
story besides. The picture was proba-
bly, suggested by the visit of the big
fleet to New York recently, and viii
