VARIETY IN FLOWER HOLDERS

The flower holders that have the

their handles are wound with velvet

A very quaint note Is struck in the
embroidered cherries and feather

is a conventional one Of two cherries

prettier combination than red with

that the girdle be kept red instead OF

becoming to some. In which case both
the embroidered design and the girdle
can be carried out In emerald green
and prove equally attractive.

ONE MANS OPINIONS
BY NJ D. COCHRAN


Goodwin, in his testimony before the
Merriam crime committee, called at
tention to one crime that isn't COM
mitted by criminals, but rather by
officers of the law.
He referred to the arrest of per-
sons and their Imprisonment by the
police without booking or preferring
any charge against them. In other
words, illegal Imprisonment of citi-
Zens, at the mere whim of the police.
Judge Goodwin said:
''This system of placing a man in
a cell at the pleasure of the police
without lodging a complaint against
him has a tendency to corrupt an
honest man and it gives the detect
tive an arbitrary power. 1t put the
criminal classes Of the city in a po-
sition to be dealt with by individual
pleasure rather than by the law. This
haphazard method of dealing with
crime doesn't lead to any material
benefit"
Yes, it's bad enough in dealing
with criminals, but the Chicago po-
lice don't stop there. Men and boys
have been arrested and locked up
without booking, when they were not
criminals and had committed no
crime - not even a misdemeanor.
During the newspaper lockout and
strike of 1912 wholesale arrests were
made of newsboys, who were locked
up without booking, and the place OF
Imprisonment was kept secret so that
their friends could neither bail them
out nor resort to habeas corpus.
AS fast as they were found and
brought into court they were dis
charged because there was no evil
dence against them.
The police department was prac-
tically put at the disposal of the
newspaper publishers of Chicago and
used to fight the battles of the pub
fishers against newsboys and union

gers on their private payrOI, SWorn
in, however, as deputy sheriffs and
policemen. Two murders we're COM
mitted by these newspaper gunner ,
and nobody was ever punished for,
those crimes.
Men who make such lawless use
of the machinery of the law to serve
their own private, selfish purpose are
more dangerous criminals than all Of
the pickpockets in town.
The conduct of the police toward
the striking mattresses is another in
stance of the criminal misuse of the
police power
The Third Degree, which is a COM
mon practice in Chicago, is still an
other instance of the lawlessness of
the police department.
There is plenty of room for inves-
tigation of crime on the part of offic-
ers of the law, if the Merriam COM
mittee has the sand to investigate.
States Attorney Hoyne has shown
up some of the police lawlessness.
The Female of the Species.-We've
simply got to do something to protect

that he was tunutterably shocked"

TO HONOR COKE'S MEMORY.
Three Methodisms to Celebrate First
Bishops Centennial.

BALTIMORE, March 2S.-The centen-
NAL of the death of Thomas Coke, first
bishop of Methodsm in America or else
where, will be celebrated May :: i'm this
city and throughout the nation, and a
special committee representing the Metho-
dist Episcopal, the Methodist Protestant
and the Methodist Episcopal Church
South will meet today to prepare plans
for the celebration here.
All three branches of Methodism in this
city will unite in honoring the memory of
Coke. who. with Francis Asbury, was
chiefly instrumental in founding Metho-
dism in America and is honored alike by
all three branches.
The committee is composed of the Rev.
DR.. Francis T. Tagg. editor of the Metho-
dist Protestant; the Rev. Frank G. Por-
ter, secretary of the Baltimore Confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
and the Rev. John Paul Tyler of the
Southern Methodist Church. The Balti-
more celebration will be of especial in
tereSt as it is regarded as the birthplace
in America of Methodism, and as Thomas
Coke and Francis Asbury are closely
connected with Baltimore.
Asburys body lies in Mount Olivet
cemetery, and, though Coke was often in
this city when he came to America. he
died while on a voyage to India and was
buried at sea.

brotherhood, and SO bear witness against
selfish exploitation of the weak nations
by the strong. The best friends the east
has had in the west have been the Chris
tan missionaries, who have sympatnetl.
cally interpreted the oriental point OF
view and character.
A hundred detailed stories of the
practical services which missionaries
are rendering may be told. Here is one
just in from Constantinople by late
issue of the Orient. DR.. w. B. Adams
of Beirut learned a couple Of years ago
from John Hopkins of the good effects
of the treatment of leprosy by freez-
ing with carbon-dioxide snow. In
America not one physician in ten
thousand would have any opportunity
to experiment with cases of leprosy.
But DR.. Adams patiently tried out the
process on ten lepers, who have been
so greatly benefited that they have
proclaimed themselves cured A mo-
ment's thought suggests the stupendous
meaning of what DR.. Adams has done.
The hideous outward blemishes, which
advertise the victim to all the world as
a leper. have been removed. Deadened
members of the body have been given
life and feeling. The hopelessness of
leprosy has been replaced by a zest for
life. Health has been set coursing
through the arteries of the living dead.

Time for World to Become Christian, Says Rev. Dr..
w. T. Manning.
w. T. Manning.

Rev. DIR. William T. Manning, chair
man of the World Conference Of Faith
and Order, has sent out from New York
city a call to all Christian people to Ia
Dor without ceasing to work out in this
generation, by mutual recognition and
possible reimbursement. practical basis
Of unity in liberty, in order, In truth. in
power and in peace"
This communication is considered the
most important issued by the conference
since it's organization. some time ago. for
the purpose of bringing about unity of
spirit of action among the Christian re-
ligions of the world. The call, in part. is
as follows:
I'VE believe in the one people of God
throughout the world. We believe that
now is a critically hopeful time for the
world to become Christian. We believe
that the present world problems of Chris
tianity call for world conference of
Christians.
This proposal has already received the
approval and cooperation of large
number of Christian churches: ap-
proaches are being made to others as
rapidly as possible, SO that We hope that
ere long its worldwide representative
character will be established beyond per-
adventure. In the work of preparation
for it's converting we have no authority
or desire to enter into discussion of the
important questions which the confer
ence itself will meet to consider. 1t is

Over here the hair IL drawn back from
the forehead and run up from the neck.
Very much more of our skin is exposed
there than for years. There IS an old
fashioned French twist also to be reck-
oned with and two ringlets at the ears.
Not that we will ever wear those ring
lets; they are too stiff and formal. But
they do go well with the Louis XIV hat
that is offered US to wear.
There is no bullying spot on our heads.
No sign of a knot. This has been true
for two years, but the movement Of the
hair went across the head. and now 1t
goes upward toward the crown. where 1t
is all caught together and flattened out
with the long ends of the front and side
waved over it.
There is an entirely different line on
the head. just here lies the importance
of the change. And just here is the fact
that will prove a stumbling block to the
average woman.
1t is easy to look well when We can
pull the hair over all the defective spots
in the bony structure of the head and we
are loath to expose them now. We must
do it. though, for the hair must not be
fattened down over the forehead

In courageously meeting and overcom-
ing the enemy we reap the food of vic

comes sweetness.
The school of difficulty is the great
warning school for the development of
mans highest powers of achievement and
success in the world. 1t is equally so in
the spiritual as in the temporal world
The trials and fluctuations encountered
in the struggle against sin and evil
worketh out a far more exceeding and
eternal weight of glory. All the prom
ises are to him that overcometh' If
there were no difficulties to be met, there
would be nothing to overcome.
The Christians greatest gain is through
the training in the school of difficulty
He has foes to meet. Lions are in the
way. The would-be destroyer and de-
vourer of his soul must be destroyed or
put to fight ere he reaches the goal
Is not the way to heavenly gain
Through earthly grief and loss?
