THE Girl, with the snowy agret in her bright hair,
her gloved fingers resting on the Mans arm, stood
upon the curb outside the theater, waiting for taxi

and spoilt, in hayward humor and took it into its
head to give its driver trouble. The driver tried
soothe it, but it would be soothed. 1t began back
ing capricously The driver cut it snartly with his light
whip. At first it paid attention whatever to the
strokes; and he repeated them with added sharpness.
ooh, cried the Girl, "see how he's beating that poor
horse What brute! Stop him.
The Man, who had been eyng the incident narrowly,
smiled. dts hurting the horse about much, said
he, "as if you struck it with your fan. Moreover, the
horse is behaving very badly, and must be made to
mind. It's endangerng the whole traffic
The Girl flushed, bit her lip and withdrew her hand
from the Mans just then the horse repentcd,
turned its head and went on; and the summoned taxi
drew up at the curb The Girl lifted her skirt,
displaying delectable slender of pink silk stock

to buy beds Food needed but the beds bought
and that night Long and his helpers slept upon bare
springs without mattresses quilts. The next day
George Streaker president of the Junior Brotherhood
of St. Andrew gave the hungry dollar and fifty
cents to buy food.
Months passed, and the mission stuck, and began
to turn human driftwood and wreckage into respcc-
table citizens Not only fallen redeemed
there, but Mrs. Long, formerly Miss Edna
Caulkins of New York, came bravey forward shortly
after the mission opened and entered into the work
with her whole soul. They named her "The Angel of
Hels Half Acre" "She called sister, said
woman who was converted at the mission. That
the turning point of my life!'
One of Mrs. Longs most interesting activities is a
Sunday school class Of than seventy-five children
whom she has gathered from the neighborhood. They
were the sorey neglected children of that section of
whites, Jews and Gentes, children whom the regular
Sunday schools somehow fail reach, who abandoned
the during of their waking hours too often
become Injured to vice and crime.
Bishop RhineanGer was brought into touch with the
mission almost by chance. Just at the time when it
was started he came to Philadelphia, and took up his
residence only block from where George Long be-
ginning his struggle. From his back windows the
Bishop noted the mission, the bright spot in the
district Just beyond his back door He went TO
see Long, and became actively interested III his work.
He is now official head of its board of directors.
The board is made up as follows: Bishop Rhneandcr,
president; Mrs. George Long, secretary; A. " Morton,

THE work at Inas1nuch was started in
March, 1911, in a dilapidated building
in the heart of Hell's Half Acre. The entire
row Of buildings where the mission stood
had been used for years as disordcrly resorts,
but had been standing vacant since coming
into the possession OF DR.. George Wood
ward, because he would not rent the prop
erty for iegitimate purposes. After listen
ing to George Longs scheme for reforming
the district DR.. Woodward at last consented
to let him try out his plan at 10l1 Locust
street for one month.
With capital of twenty-seven cents, but
with no other assistance or encouragement
except the free use of tumbledown house
that nobody else wanted, Long gathered
about him three of his former pals, and set
to work cleaning out his mission. For sew
eral nights these four men slept on the bare
floor, while the March winds whistled in
through the broken windows. For several
days they labored and prayed, without food.
At last, when it seemed that the enter
prise was doomed to failure, the Rev. ]. J.
Joyce Moore, rector of St. Andrews Pro-
testant Episcopal Church, happened to pass
the house and asked Long what the unusual
activity meant. After he was given brief
outline of the plan he gave Long five dollars

"HIS is the story of once homeless
mans loving labor and faith, and of
what has come out of 1.-THE widely
known Inasmuch Mission in Philadelphia
founded only three years ago by George
Long, who was himself at that time friend
less and penniless "down and OUTER" with
record that he himself freely admits was
"as black as pitch"
This mission is now conceded to be the
largest of its kind in the world From 500
to 600 homeless men are given food and shell
ter there every day: more than 5000 have
been converted; and within the first two
years after its establishment &c. 100 persons
had attended its meetings; 3S,S64 men
were given free lodging; and 101 ,0S7 meals
had been served. Beginning absolutely
without capital or friends three years ago,
the Inasmuch now has 100000 plant,
free of debt, at 1O11 Locust street, and has
backing to the extent of 100000, including
the cost of its plant.
Yet George Long has never taken up
collection, passed the hat, nor solicited
dollar for the aid of his philanthropic enter
prise; neither has he sought influential
friends But these have come to the mission,
and are now officially identified with the
work.-men like Bishop Philip NJ. Rhine

SIMPLY BREATHE IT
That's the Way You Use Hyomei. the
Safe Catanh Remedy.

The most pleasant, easiest, harmless,
and the really sensible method for the
cure of catarrh is Hyomei, which can
be had from any drug store. Just put
twenty drops of the liquid in the small
inhaler that comes with every complete
outfit-then breathe it. A few minutes
use almost instantly clears the head
ard stops that annoying shifting.
When using Hyomei every particle
of air that enters the breathing organs
is charged with an antiseptic, healing
balsam that destroys the catarrh germs
stops the unclean discharges from the
nose. relieves the irritation and quickly
heals the sore and infiamed tissues.
The first days use of Hyomei will show
decided improvement no matter how
distressing the trouble.
Catarrh, which usually begins with a
neglected cold, often becomes a very
serious aiment, so don't wait but start
using Hyomei today-It is inexpensive
and K. E. McRoberts always sells it on
the ''No-cure-no-pay" plan.
