CINEMAS ON THE SEA.

Tt has been remarked before now
that only a salmon stream or a golf
course is necessary to add to the COM
pleteness of the equipment of tile up
to-date modern liner, with its swim
ming baths, theaters, tennis courts
and other amenities, but it has been
left apparently to the Orsoya, Of the
Orient line, to receive the first board
of trade permit to carry cinema.
For the purpose of the show stage,
including a pretty drop scene, is
rugged up on deck, where seating ac-
conmodatlon for some 500 specta-
tors is provided, and noninfammable
films are used, so that there is no
danger of fire. In addition to the
ordinary subjects" special films
showing Australian scenes and events
are provided for the benefit of emf
grant passengers, and in this way
serve educational as well as recrea-

3lNDEPED BY CLAY STRATA
5ut Atlantic City Contractors Are
Still in Fair Way to Earn 5onus
by Hard Fighting.

It seemed a safe bet that YOU
could bore a hole anywhere on the
beach at Atlantic City 500 feet
leep and find nothing but sand.
The unexpected-a thin layer Of
:lay-was struck by the men who
we're putting down the foundations
for the new Traymore hotel.
That seeming trife now bulks up
n the shape of $4,000. The con
tractors, as ] am informed, we're
to forfeit $1,500 a day for every
day after a certain date that the
big hotel should remain unfinished.
They were also to get bonus If it
were completed on time.
That unlooked-for stratum Of
clay made a difference of SO days
in getting down the piles upon
which the huge concrete structure
will rest. In the spirit that every
body likes to see a horse win a race
in the face of handicaps, SO | trust
the builders VIII yet beat old Fa-
ther Time in spite of that clay, and
so win the bonus. And it looks now
as if they will do it-Philadelphia

TRIBUTE TO BOOK or JOB
Recognized by Thomas Carlyle as One
of the Great Masterpieces of
Literary Work.

I call the Book Of Job, apart from
all the theories about it, one Of the
grandest things ever written. One
feels, indeed, as if it were not He
brew-such a noble universality, diff
ferent from noble patriotism or sec
tarianism, reigns in it. A noble book
All mems book 1t is our first, Oldest
statement of the never-ending prob
lem-man's destiny and Gods ways
with him here on this earth. And all
in such free, flowing outlines; grand
in its simplicity and its epic melody
and repose Of reconcilement. There
is the seeing eye, the mildly under
standing heart. So true every way
true eyesight and vision fol all
things, material things no less than
spiritual. The horse, Chou hast
clothed his neck with thunder p.
che laughs at the shaking Of the
spear!" Such living likenesaes were
never since drawn. Sublime sorrow,
sublime reconciliation; oldest choral
melody as Of the heart Of mankind
so soft and great-as the summer
midnight, as the world with its seas
and stars There is nothing written,
| think, in the Bible or out Of it,
of equal literary merit

CHEERFUL slCKBED VISITOR
Must Have Done His Friend
Pat a Lot of Good.

Senator Henry F. ippitt of
Rhode Island smiled the other eve
ming when the conversation turned
to sweet consolation. He said he
was reminded of an incident that
happened in New England.
A party named Pat was taken
quite sick and was confined to his
bed for several days. One evening
Mike called and found the patient
exceedingly depressed. lmmedi-
ately the tender-hearted Mike be-
came very sympathetic.
"Sure, Pat he said, in soft
and gentle voice, ''do yez feel loike
ye was sicker?'
cit amt that, Moike,' returned
Pat, in a melancholy voice. "Oi'm
thinkin' av the docther. He has
been here fourtane tonnes at two
bones a throw, an Oh haven't got a
cint in the worruld."
"Don't yez worry about the doc
ther, Pat. Don't yez worry about
the docther" was the consoling re-
joinder of Mike. "Sure an he will
get his'n all right. Yez have got
some insurance, hain't yez?"

FAIL TO ACHIEVE RESULTS
Large Industrial Concerns in China
Seldom Make Money for Men
Who Originate Them.

Though generally adroit in launch
ing an undertaking, the Chinese are
people very poor in bringing it to
final success. The number of ma
tive industrial companies promoted
in China in the last dozen or more
years has been very great, but ex-
tremely few of them live today to
show any favorable financial results.
All these modern companies in China
start with plants of the latest and
most approved type, employing for
eign experts, who are generally as
sisted by Chinese newly returned
from abroad with a store Of scientific
knowledge. But as a rule they sell
dom reap profits from their enter
prise. 1t is not that the experts are
incompetent, nor that their outputs
are of an inferior quality. They are
overtaken by deficits that interfere
with their work, and by contracting
loan after loan they sink lower and
lower into the quagmire of debts
with no hope of ever getting out of
it. In their desperation the promo
ters abandon their work, and in
many cases the officers run away.

Rheumatism and Allied Pains
They Must Go!

The congestion of the blood
in its flow causes pain. SloGn's
Liniment penetrates to the. con-
gestion and starts the blood TO
flow freely. The body's warmth
is renewed; the pain is gone.
The man or woman who has
rheumatism, neuralgia or other
pain and fails to keep Sloan's
Liniment in their home is like a

Thirteen Ergatheas and six

in the Church paIlors on Fri,lay.
Such games as bobbing for ap-
pies, ten pin played with apples,
and peanut race were enjoyed
by all. This is one of the pop
ular classes of the Sunday
school. The aim of this class
is the development of q well
rounded life. Any young Der
son who is between the ages of
15 and 20 years or who is a stu
dent in the High School or who
is taking full work in the Sth

conducting Of funerals. Quite
a number Of Toledo people seem
to think that the Church is Q
good thing but that the Other
fellow ought to support 1t ant

the pastor will discuss these
