On a recent evening the "supply" wm not an or dained clergymen, lint Mrs. McClUh, the pastor's wife. All the previous congregations during the pastor's abwnce would hardly equal In size that which listened to the wom an. Every seat in the big structure was ocenpiod, and among the listeners were large delegations front tiei-hlorin churches. The Rev. Jamos Kenwick, who It a memWr of the church, con ducted the meeting and presented the pastor's wife to fill the pastor's place. "Bo Ions as Sister Median is here with ns," snid he, "we need not worry about Dr. McC'lish," and the retired preacher added, "for he is sure to come back." Mrs. McClish arose from the pulpit chair, which she had occupied during the early portion of the service, and With a calrnno and deliberation that could not be surpassed by even ao ex perienced a preacher as her husband she tKk position at the desk and began her addroee. Slio read with a clear, strong voice and in a pleasing manner, and nobody would have supposed that It was her first venture in the pulpit. The subject of the address was "Motherhood," illustrated from the life of Mrs. Susanna Wesley, wife of Samuel Wesley and mother of John and Charles. Mrs. McCllah presented a careful study of Mrs. Wesley's life and work, and all that sho said held the closest attention of everybody present. Bbe showed that Mrs. Wesley, in addition to belug the "Mother of Methodism," was the mother of IS children, and it was to the bringing op of that family that most of the ad- dress related.

Howard of Washington at 11 years invented an ingenious game for her invalid brother and got a patent for it. Arthur G. Smith of Richwoods, Ills., at 12 years invented and patented a rowing apparatus. When only 17 years old, Benjamin K. Hamilton of Boston took out patents on a number of devices for electric and ele vated railways. A dispute over a con tract which he desired to escape from on ths ground of his minority made an Interesting case not long ago before the coiauiissionor of patents. Samuel Ker, 19 years old, has patented a telf feeding pen. Other boys have Invented useful devices for electric signaling, telephon ing and cigarette making. Ooorgo C.

They have not a will of their own, and the utmost limit of their freedom of action is the arrangement of their :halns the man ner In which their papers or slavery are blazoned and written out. When the order has gone forth that the sleeves are to be high and the lovely line of the finely tnoldd shoulder is to be not only hidden but defaced, all the pretty serfs hasten to obliterate this charm in favor of unconditional submission to the ty rant decree of fashion, which is but an other name for faith.

' At noon, lu the prim meeting house of the Society of Friends at Rutherford1 ilnce and Fifteenth t-trpet, Mips Eliza eth Wlllets nnd Dr. Samuel V. Lam lert, married themselves. No minister officiated, for none was needed. No prayers were said, and no music greeted their approach to the nltar. Ceremonj and display were larking. Half an hour before the ceremony was to take plnre the little meeting house was crowded to the walls. Three thou sand invitations had bcn sent out, but only about 400 could gain entrance. Everything had a subdued character the pews painted in softyellowlfdi brown colors, the ceremony, the decorations and the people. No flowers were dis played, but the rostrum and the choir seats were bunked with a mass of palms. Especially noticeable among the people were the young women, clad in soft col ored cloth gowns, wearing big bats, which drooped in unexpected turns and crept ont over their foreheads and had soft voils twisted about the brims, which shaded the eye and the brows. These young women as they entered kept their eyes right toward the pews where they were going to sit. Scattered among the crowd pressing into the church came a few Friends dreaded in their old time at tire wearing smooth black coats, with velvet fared standing collars and broad torped lapels, and brood crowned, wide brimmed black bats. Miss Willets reached the church, ac companied by her father, shortly before noon. A fow minutes later the unbers led the procession up the aisle. Follow- ing were the two bridesmaids. The bride advanced leaning on her father's arm She wore a white satin gown trimmed with point lace and a tulle reiL The bridesmaids were attired In delicate green ana whito striped, gowns, made with full skirts and adorned with black velvet bows. The procession was received at the rostrum by Dr. Lambert and his best man and Dr. J. W. Markoe. Dr. Lam- bert advanced and took Misa Willets by the right hand. They stood facing each other, scarcely looking at their assem bled friends, as Dr. Lambert said: "In the presence of the Lord and these, my friends, I promise to take thee to bo my wedded wife, promising through di vine assistance to be a faithful and af fectionate husband till death." Then Míbs Willets spoke a few hur ried words, inaudible to the people What she said was; In the presenco of the Lord nnd my friends I promiso to take thee to be my wedded husband, promising through di vine assistance to be a faithful and affec tionate wife until death." so prayer was onereu, but after a moment's pause Mr. Howard J. Wright. the whito haired clerk of the meeting, unrolled a large certificate. ' Dr. and Mrs. Lambert walked a step or two to the left, where he was standing, and then seating himself in a chair Dr. Lambert eigned his name to the certifi cate. Then Mrs. Lambert signed the document, writing not bor maiden name, but her new name. Then Mr. Wright stood up and read the certificate, which recounted that on the 21st day of October the two parties in the presence of witnesses had pledged themselves to be husband and wife. To this certificate is appended a list of wit nesses giving testimony that the cere mony was performed. The marriage is recorded in the birth, marriage and death book of the society.

Most of us are absorbed in a desire to wear good clothes, to own horses or boats, to go to races and bet, to drink all the new combinations of alomlnable stuffs, to go to comic opera and get up an affair with chorus girl. These are our "high alma," Heaven save the mark I I know of a man who the other night robed him self in a flowing silk and 01 a serpentine dance.

To have . the honor of the ac quaintance of one of the painted ladies of the ballet is to occupy a position of enviable distinction, and to be a real "stage door Johnny" is better than to be the writer of many books. Dear Mr. Thackeray, yon really must have been mistaken about those "high aims. gentlemen, and you know you really couldn't call our aspirations and long ings "high alms." Let me place you right. The true gentleman is he who wears toe most swagger clothes, who talks In the roost exaggerated way, who can drink and bet and swear, who can most recklessly squander his (or some body else's) money, and whose intimate associates are the ladies of the chorus and the gentlemen of the turf. Oh, yes, Mr. Thackeray, you were quite wrong, or else we are. Which?-díarper's Bo tar. GOOD WORK OF THE RICHEST YOUNQ WOMAN IN AMÉRICA.

Here ia a little city in Virginia that has become the greatest distribut ing center of peanuts in the world. A peanut is a pretty small item, but an an nual crop of something like 6,000,000 bushels, worth millions of dollars, makes a pretty big item. The demand for goobers has doubled within the luxt five years, and the sup ply does not yet fill the growing demand. Few people know tho curious uses to which the goober has been put in trade quite of late years. No other single plant raided in this country is used in so many different ways. Ihe Chinese say the cocoannt palm has as many useful properties as there are days in the year. The goober is not so universal as that, but it has as many valuable qualities as there are days in the week. The solid part of the nut is peculiarly nutritive and supplies fruit and food for many a family. The vines make fine fodder, some say as good as clover hay, while hogs fatten on what is left in the fields after the crop has been gathered.

Thus the Orient sends to our restless women of the Occi dent a messenger of peace. This dame of Persia brings light into the dark place which have never been fully illuminated by any of the fashionable stitches that have tried to work their way Into the hearts of women during the past 20 years. Even Kensington stitch bus suggested ths rivalries of London society, but tho em broideries which the Persian woman brings are snggedtive of quiet, of peace, of the ability to sit still and move tho fingers graonfully and not think an abil ity sadly lacking in American women.

HE PRIZES THE BANDAGE. Bullet Wave. One of the interesting results of the recent experiments in England in photo graphing flying bullets has been to show that tho disturbance in the air travels faster than the bullet itself. The photographs exhibit air waves in advance of the bullets, even when the latter are moving faster than the veloc ity of sound. In one case where the bullet was mov ing conuiderably faster than sound trav els in the air it was preceded by an at mospheric disturbance which, at the moment the photograph was taken, was half an inch In advance of the point of the bullet. Even when the bullets were traveling four times as fust as sound the atmospheric disturbance kept ahead of them. Youth s Companion. Tb Life of a Toting Van Saved by tha Petticoat of a Fair Teian.

Kauffman says that when the collision came something hit him, and he lost consciousness. When he regained bis senses, he was lying be side the wreck of the car, bleeding copi ously from a deep cut on the head and unable to help himself. Just as he was about to faint again from weakness, an awfully pretty girl came up aud spied him. bhe wo Miss Taylor of Jeffer son, Tex., who had escaped injury in the wreck. bhe realized at once that the young man would bleed to death if not attend ed to. Without a moment's hesitation she whipped off her petticoat and tear ing out a strip bound it tightly on Kauff man's bead. The bleeding was checked and his life saved. To say that he feels deeply grateful to the fuir Texan would be drawing it very mildly, and he vows he will keep the bandage as long as he lives. Memphis Cor. St. Louis Republic.

I once took some Kaffirs from their desolate island homo in the Himalayan gorges beyond the mountain ranges to tho moro civilized south. Like most savages, they looked with stupid indif ference at the marvels about thorn, aud onco only were they excited by an inci dent which opened their eyes to what they considered a most extraordinary and unnatural state of tilings. They were descending a road when one of thein chanced to remark that he a hungry, and the English "sahib" bought him some food at a wayside shop. Tho Kaffir saw the money changa hands. 'IIow is this?" ho inquired In sur prise, "Do you üavo to pay for food in thisountryf "Certainly." "What a country I" cried the man in amazement. Then after pondering awhile he continued doubtfully: "Sup pose a man had no money in this coun try. He might starvef ' "It is quite possible." The Kaffir shook with uncontrollable laughter. It was the best joke he had ever heard. Ho then explained the ridic ulous system to his companions, and they roared in chorus. "W7here Three Em pires Meet."

The man then went away, and the land lord a few minutes later discovered that he had been swindled, as the $100 bill as a counterfeit. lew i ork Letter. of the most Indefatigable workers in ths charities which have their fountain in and are fostered by Rev. Dr. Paxton's West Presbyterian church, of which she Is a communicant. She does not confine her efforts to the mere signing of checks, but personally visits the homes of the destitute and cheers by hearty words of encouragement while giving substantial relief from her purse. It is said that she takes a deep interest in the class of un fortunates for whom the proposed hos pital is reported to be designed, and the establishment of such a charity cannot be too highly commended. Rev. Dr. Paxton regards Miss Oould as sn invaluable ally in the benevolon work of his church. Bhe is personally interested in the Home for the Friend less, and she was one of the waiters at table last Christmas, when 300 little tots were made happy. She is also a liberal giver to the Potted Plants asso ciation, which gives flowers and shrubs in pots to children of the teuoments, and it is said that her private benefactions are very numerous. She is said to be especially tender to poor and helpless women and little children and is known to spend many hours in visiting and reading to invalids, besides providing for their physical needs.

The first step of the reform committee was to ask the county commissioners to ap point a woman physician to the asylum, Today, as a consequence, tho asylums at Kankakee, Jackson and Elgin, all Illi nois institutions, have women physicians also. I am assured that no one except a physician can appreciate how great a re form it was to -establish the principle that women suffering from mental dis eases should be put in charge of women. Mrs. Helen S. Shedd was at the front of the asylum reform work, which Is still going on. Bhe next led the reform committee into the poorhouse, where they went, as they always do, with the plea: "there are women there. We want a share in the charge of that pluce for the sake of our sex." ' While I was In Chicago some of the women were looking over tho plans for four new police stations. It transpired as they talked that tbey have succeeded in entablishing a woman's advisory board of the police, consisting of 10 women appoiuted by the chief of police and in charge of the quarters of all women and children prisoners, and of the station house matrons, two of whom are allot ted to each station where women are taken. Tho philanthropy committee of the Woman's club began its active work in the county Jail, where it found a shock ing state of affairs. Julian Ralph La Harper's.

Well, it's a fact All that the patent office does is to give yon a paper with some writing on It, but if another man steals your idea and goes to manufacturing your invention the patent oflice will not lift a finger to pro tect you or to stand 1 its own decision. The luct Unit you ve got a patent is a point in your favor, but you've got to hire lawyers and fight tho thief ia ths courts, aud if he can stand it to hire lawyers longer than you can that sottleS yon, and yon might as well mike him s present of your invention.

The patent otUce, to be respected und to be of any uuo, ought to huve the power to cause the stealer of a patent to be sent to prison."
