Of the many teachings which would substi-
tute psychology and science for orthodox
theology
The conference opened with an attend
ance of approximately 800 ministers and
about half that number of laymen. The
sessions are being held in the First
Church, whose pastor, the Rev. l.. X. Will

first business session was called to order
by the aged leader of the Ocean Grove
Camp Meeting. called affectionately the
sage and patriarch Of the conference"
With the first meeting of Bishops cab
inct of district superintendents last night
rumors became current that many sur
prislng transfers are contemplated AL
though rumors of this kind are always
numerous at the opening of a conference,
It was almost definitely ascertained that
the people of Colllngswood are to lose
their fight to retain the Rev Alfred Wagg,
who is said to have been decided upon
to take the place of the Rev. John Handley
at the Broadway Church, Camden.
Another interesting rumor is that the
entire list of district superlntendents is
to be changed. The present superintend-
ents are the Revs. f. A. Demaris, George
II. Neal NJ. A. Snyder and James w.
The appointments will probably
not be ready for announcement until the
middle of next week.
Delegates were reminded today that
during the year just closed death claimed
the largest number of New Jersey clergy
men and wives of clergymen in nearly a
decade
The closely allied questions of church
polity in which ministers in all parts of
the State have manifested unusual inter-
est are to be discussed at one of the ses-
sions later in the week. These are the
proposed consolidation of the two great
branches of the Methodist Church and the
suggestion to have bishops chosen for
Methodists of different races u
The Methodist Episcopal Church of the
North and West and the Methodist Church
South have been separated since 1874, |
when the two branches split on the slav-
,ry question.

ing them. Hence, when they are arrested
and sentenced to jail, they simply laugh
and take It easy for a few months, while
their wives are left destitute and often
have TO depend upon the city for food"
Commissioner Sayres further asserted
that the city was supporting the wife de-
serters and that their increasing number
had become an important civic problem
that would have to be solved.
Putting the men In Jail is no pun
ishment for them. but works hardships
on their poverty-stricken families" the
street Commissioner went on. The adop-
tion Of the proposed plan will give them
less desire to get in the tolls of the au-
thorities. and II they do so. the city will
make money out of them and their fami-
lies will have money for food When a
man gets out of the asphalt plant he will
have learned a good trade, for good as

The secret of good tea-making lies
in having fresh boiled water, n sweet,
clean, hot pot and good tea. all min
gled together for the required three
to five minutes. The result is Il refresh.
ing cup Of tea. In England, where tea.
drinking is an art, many tea drinkers
refuse to take n cup unless they know
that the water has been brought from
certain springs which adds TO the tonic
quality of the tea.
We usually rrgar'l Russian tea as
simply n cup OF tea with II slice of
lemon added, while as Il mattpr of fact
their national drink is served with Il
tcaspoonful of jam dropped right into
the steaming hot tea. In Morocco the
leaves of verbena and wild thyme are
added to give piquancy. The Persian
likes his tea very sweet with the Juice
of the lime prepared in IA peculiar man
ner. The Burmese add garlic 10 their
tea Which makes us glad we are not
Burmese. In no country is creain so
much used in tea rs in America but Il
cup of tea with milk is on par with
coffee served with milk-both need
cream to be just right.
A blend Of tea that connoisseurs in.
dorse ~unstintedly is made by thorough
ly mixing onc-half ounce Of orange
pekoe, one and one-half ounces of
young hyson, six ounces Of s~ouchong
and eight ounces Of oolong. The cor
rect measurement of this, properly
brewed, will. as the Chinese say.
drive away the five causes of sorrow."
Three of the essential cornponents of
tea, essential oil, tannin and theme,
are what gives character to the infused
beverage. The flavor of tea depends up-
on the essential oil, theme. which Is the
alkaloid identical with the caffeine in
coffee. and the tired or nervous per-
with a headache finds relief in a
cup of tea because of this ingredient.
The strength of the tea is attributed
to the tannin and this is always in
