(Continued from Page One.3 It was clear that for suficiently good reasons some of these organizations should retain their name and Identity, there being not the slightest reason why they could not. The committee recommended, however, that there would be a great advantage in a fed eration of the wornen's organizations which would not disturb the present Organization of them in any way but give greater cohesion to this phase of the church work. The ooranaittee decided this whole matter could prof. ttably be left to be worked out by the women of these societies. M

Growth ofWeaIth.

The wealth of the world grows very slowly, and the amount of real saving is amazingly small If, for example. the wealth of the United States when George Washington became president was equivalent to a billion dollars and that perhaps is not bad guess and this amount coulh have steadily earned littla over 5 per cent every year since, this gain, compounded. would exceed the present estimated wealth of this country, This means that all the rest of the saving and the gains from new enterprises and rap idly increasing population have only just about balanced the annual waste and loss. True, more than two=thirds of the wealth Of nations is still the hus man machine and not the visible tax able property, but the fact serves to show how slight is the annual gain even in the premier get rich quick country of the world. the United States.

In her book of "reminiscences, '"Thir- teen Years of a Busy Woman's Life, ;" Mrs Alec Tweedie says that her fla ther, pr. Harley, well known Lon don physician, was a great friend of Ruskin and often stayed at Brentwood. One night Ruskin asked Dr. Harley whether he liked tea or coffee before he got up.
 "A cup of tea,'' he replied.
 Why don't you choose eoffee2''
 Well, to tell the truth, I have lived so much abroad that I don't fancy English coffee. It is generally so bad ly made.
 His host said nothing. The next morning Dr. Harley was awakened, /and a strong smell of coffee permeated the room Turning to a servant, he asked, .sIs that my cup, of tea?''
 "No, sir; it is MT. .Ruskin's coffee.@
 "Mr. Ruskins coffee! What do you meant"
 "The master was up early. He roast ed the coffee himself, he ground the coffee himself, and he made the coffee himself, and he hopes you will like it. 5
