common knowledge that some profess

The bishop Of Litchfield is publicly ap-
pealing for funds on behalf OF needy
incumbents and curates in his diocese,
and he has opened special emergency
fund for augmenting their incomes. In
some of the industrial parishes 'war

south Staffordshire village 40 coal min
ers are each giving sixpence a week
toward providing "war bonus" to the
curate. 1t is TO be continued until the

New Electric Furnaces.

The success of electric heat in japan
and varnish oven work has led to con-
siderable investigation along the line
of what might be termed low tempera-
ture heating; that is, heating with
temperatures up to 600 degrees Fab
renheIt. The results of these investi-
cations have brought out numerous
other applications, among which are
electric core baking ovens. electric
bread baking ovens, ovens for making
cereals, drying wooden articles ana
equipment for sherardizing.

proved so expensive for the perpetra-
tors. "But you shall have my burnt
Offering, too. 1t serves us both right,
but especially me, for 1t was my idea"
And Fairy went away feeling very
gratified and generous.
Only girls who have wanted silk
stockings for a "whole lifetime" can
realize the blissful state of the par
sonage twins. They lay on the bed
planning the most impossible but mag
nificent things they would do to show
their gratitude, and when Aunt Grace
stopped at their door they leaped up
to overwhelm her with caresses just
because of their gladness.
She waved them away with laugh,
april Fool, twins" she said, with a
voice so soft that 1t took all the sting
from the words. 81 brought you some
real silk stockings for a change" And
she tossed them package and started
out Of the room to escape their thanks.
But she stopped in surprise when the
girls burst into merry laughter.
"Oh, you silk stockings" Carol
cried. "Three pairsl You darling,
sweet old auntiel You would come up
here to tease us, would you? But
papa gave us a pair, and Fairy gave
us pair, and"
"They did! Why, the silly things J"
And the gentle woman looked as seri-
ously vexed as she ever did look-she
had so wanted to give them the first
silk-stocking experience herself.
"Oh, here you are" cried Prudence,
stepping quickly in, and speaking very
brightly to counterbalance the gloom
she had expected to encounter. She
started back In some dismay when she
saw the twins rolling and rocking
with laughter, and Aunt Grace leaning
against the dresser for support, with
Connie on the floor. quite speeches..
"Good for you, twins-thats the way
to take hard knocks" she said. ut
wasn't very nice trick, though OF
course papa didn't understand how you
felt about silk stockings. 1t wasn't
his fault. But Fairy and ought to
be ashamed, and we are. / went out
and got you some real, genuine silk
ones myself, so you needn't pray for
them any more"
Prudence was shocked, little hurt,
at the outburst that followed her
words.
swell, such familyr Aunt Grace
exclaimed. And then Carol pulled her
bodily down beside her on the bed
and for time they were all incapable
Of explanation.
"What is the joke" Prudence asked,
again and again, smiling-but still
feeling little pique. She had count
ed on gladdening their sorry little
hearts!
stockings, stockings Oh, such
familyv' shrieked Carol.
There's no playing jokes on the
twins" said Aunt Grace weakly. 1T
takes the whole family to square up,
It's too expensive"
Then Lark explained, and Prudence
sat down and joined the merriment,
which waxed so noisy that Mr.. Starr
from the library and Fairy from the
kitchen, ran in to investigate.
"April Fool. April Fool" cried Carol
"We never played a trick like this
Larkle-this is our masterpiece"

carried to ridiculous lengths.
As to the speakerehip. there is Speaker
Dana, who i an avowed candidate for re-
election Mr. Dana has been active in his
solicitation OF support. and he and his
friends are favorably impressed by the
situation
Another among those mentioned j, NJ.
II. Alexander Of this city. The Morris
Vile Messenger has strongly pronounced
in his favor, while the Rutland Herald
fails to see where he should have any adj
vantage over Speaker Dana.
G. l.. Durham of Brattleboro, who
served in the 1917 house, is suggested as
a possible candidate. but those outside
his confidence do not know whether he
has such aspirations or not. Another
man from the southern end of the state
who is on the mystic list is w G. Belk-
nap Of Bellows Falls, editor of the week
| ~ paper published in that town.
Still another possibility from the south
is Addison Z. Cudworth of Londonderry
Cudworth was member, and strong
one. of the 1917 house He had had legis.
lativc experience before that. Expert
enee and ability are on his side. and
should he enter the field he undoubtedly
would have to be closely reckoned with,
That ends the list of the mentioned
up to date, so far as the speakcrship i,
concerned. Being mentioned doe, not
mean that one is a candidate, and K
