people have done everything to
make my life unhappy. Five years
ago I consented TO mortgage a
piece Of property to place my hus-
band In the way OF making a better
living. This was given with the
understanding that he was not to
take his brother in with him. He
promised this. Ny reason for this
was that when my husband was in
] his own family he was considered
the black sheep-not allowed TO
even stay In the same house with
them. Now that we have accumu-
lated little money. they all hang
around. and we are not able TO meet
our own expenses. ask II there
is any way TO keep this brother out
OF our life. We are happy when
left alone. N. r.

A report Just received from the
worlds headquarters OF the seventh

growth OF the denomination in North
America during tho past year. More
than five thousand members were
added to the church. and 1.-THE paid

"The amount OF offerings for for

ference during 1915 was $706.293.50

Speaking of the Adamson wage
increase law, a democratic editor says
that Hughes is indignant because
the trainmen got shorter hours ~
put the law does not establish a
shorter day, 1t makes no such pre-
tension, The railroad trainmen do
not claim that it does, They did
not ask for an eight-hour day, All
they asked and all the law gave was
compensation at the rate for a ten
hour day hut computed on an eight
hour day II they work ten hours,
they get paid for two hours of over
time There is absolutely nothing
in the law that prohibits their work
ing ten hours. So the pretens,on
that the law "makes passenger trat-
