PAPER BAGS.
Every Housekeeper Will Find Many
Uses For Them.

Uses For Them.
There are very few housekeepers
who do not find uses for the ordinary
paper bags that are continually accu-
mulatinG. y most excellent way to
keep these bags so that they will al
ways be not only easy of access, but
also in good condition, and in assorted
sizes is to have a pine board three
inches wide by one inch thick neatly
planed. Screw two brass rings in the
top by which the board may be hung
to the wall or pantry door and drive
three nails with the heads filed off on
the board. The bags will slip on and
off the nails easily.
Another good idea is to reserve a
small drawer in the kitchen or pantry
Tor them. Before being placed in the
drawer they should be carefully
smoothed and folded.
An enamel cloth bag tackled upon the
pantry door is also Il convenient recep-
tacle for these bags. An ingenious
housewife has fashioned Il bag conven-
lent for holding paper bags and also
for odds and ends of string. The bag
is made by cutting two pieces of linen
or duck of the length required. One
piece is four inches narrower than the
other. The narrower strip is stitched
across its width to the wider strip to
form three pockets. The two strips
are placed fatty together and stitched
and bound all around with braid. The
middle pocket is made wide enough to
hold large and small paper bags. The
end pockets are intended for strings.

SWORD PLANT
NOW FOUND ON
BIG island

In one OF the windows Of the Pro
motion Committee IS a Silver Sword
plant found on the slopes of MauIa
kea. For years it has been said that
the Silver Sword is found nowhere on
earth except in the crater of Hale
akaIa, and il is certainly a rare plant.
The committee has long haE one in
case, which for long time bore d
label indicating the prevalent impress
sion that the great Maui crater was
the only place where it grew.
1t is a coincidence that will be OF
interest to John Burroughs, the world
famous naturalist, that the plant
should have been found on the Island
of Hawaii at this time. Writing in
recent issue of the Century Magazine,
he mentioned this unique plant, and
referred to the generally accepted
statement that it was to be found only
in the crater OF Haleakala. While adj
hitting that in his long life Of travel
ing and studying animal and plant
life, he had never seen the plant be-
fore, he vehIured the suggestion that
there were probably other localities,
similar in climate, soil and general
ScOIO6ICdl IOIHdItOIlS, W MAUI great
crater, and that such localities would
naturally produce the same plant.
Used in the Parade
The Silver Sword plant was used
for decoration in one of the Maui en-
tries in the flCSal parade couple Of
years ago, and may be used this year.

how terrible that news is to me-over

CHRISTIANS AMBITION
/. DEFINED BY PASTOR
Rev. c. T. Russell Tells Congregation
Of Necessity Of Serving Creator
as He Desires.

The Christian of today should never
allow any ambition to surpass what
should always be his supreme one-of so
living that In the end his Creator will
call him unto Him as one OF the elect of
the world whom He desires in the future
to have about Him. This desire to TO-
low this supreme ambition should be
the ruling passion of every individual S
life.
So Pastor Charles T. Russell declared
In his sermon to the Washington Temple
Congregation Cnonsectarian), in New
Masonic Temple yesterday afternoon ct
o'clock.
Pastor Russell was discussing as his
subject Fatal Ambition VS.. Noble Am
bition." and in continuing. avsrred that
no one OF this world should have the
least bit Of trouble in determining be-
tween the two and. in settling that prob
lem, should ever seek toward the goal
that the Creator has placed before the
eyes OF those who would be faithful unto
His commands.
There are ambitions OF this world
which Pastor. Russell declared to be
laudable, but when one pursues them he
said they should ever be subordinated to
the great ambition to serve the Creator
as He would have His loyal followers do
by giving that full service for the Joy
of it.
