IN THE TRACK OF THE TOW BY ALBERT W. TOLMAN. AM what many people call a 'vanguard' of the many water. Among the pleashest hours of my life are those long Island Sound. Nothing glove me greater delight than the shores and there lie my ears dreaming, marking the play watching the vessels and steamers glide In July and August, 1988, I passed a few weeks in a Connecticut shore town not many miles east of New Haven, and, as I was going from New York, and I had bowed her from New Haven harbor to the mooring in a cove near my boarding place. The joy of that afternoon in the isle of the mooring, which, like myself, had only been made by man, who, like myself, had been pouring over ledger columns in a back office for eight hours a day for ten months. A crescent of big blisters, glistening with a small, white, red glist of the trip, but my nerves were tranquil and I slept like a log that night. The next day the thermometer registered between twenty and one hundred degrees in temperature, and the afternoon it was too warm to do anything but drowsy in a hammock under the apple-tree behind the house. I got an early supper, and just before sunset pulled out the three-tops set up to mark the boundaries of the oyster-beds. The water was unruffled. East and west down other shore to the horizon, and the water was a procession of cloudless sky with their black smoke. The few sailing craft in sight were motionless, their salts hanging idly. In the still air, the soft dip of the ears sounding pleasantly in my ears. The sun dropped below the horizon; the red of the west darkened and disappeared, and it was night, with blackness of the sound. Lamps began to sparkle along the shore, while mustered lanterns and red and green running lights told the position of moving steamers, and pulls had become invisible in the gloom. I stopped rowing and established myself comfortably on my back in the bottom of the boat, pillowing my head on the bow. The cool darkness, the salty fragrance of the ocean air, the gentle motion of my skiff and the distant sound of bells and whistles from passing steamers and the land all induced a peaceful drowsiness, which soon lapsed gradually and imperceptibly into a dreamless sleep. I must have been unconscious for two or three hours, when the rocking of the boat awoke me. Cramped and stiff from my slumber in the night air on the uncushioned boards, I started up to find myself enveloped in a thick mist which covered the sound like a blanket. It was not very deep, for the stars shone faintly through it, but all other objects were cut off from my view. There was no wind, but an ocean swell, rolling in from the east, was stirring in quite a sea. Although without a watch, I knew that it must be on well toward midnight. It must have been in a very dangerous condition, not because I expected any trouble in finding it, but I expected it to be a tussle of tussle and steamers. I shivered at the thought of the peril to which I had been exposed while white steam. Beneath that shroud out and might have been beaten lifeless, I was able to be being the wiser for it. I listened to the whistles speaking to one another through the fog. The general course of all the whistles of a woman endangering myself, I could approach a tow of barges near enough to see when they were in the water, and determine the quarters of the commissar; if the boats were loaded I knew that they were in a way approaching us on their way back to New York. Oo-oo-ooh! Oo-oo-ooh! The increased loudness of a waving approach. Lying on my cars, I waited, prepared to row forward quickly or to stay near and near came the tooting, and I could hear the rush of water meeting the shore. Suddenly, twenty feet away approached a black stem, steaming rapidly through a bog. It the turt sweet by I caught a glimpse of a tow-rose dragging over the stern, and I saw her crying. Kry had two cool-laden barges behind her. I could hear the voices of the men on board, and I saw the black shadow passed; it was the first barge, loaded low in the water; after her at an intertie, some another; after her at the bridge, some another; heading east, and that the shore therefore lay in front of me. I settled myself on the thwart and braced my feet for the So interested had I been in my calculations that I whistles that occurred shortly after the passage of the tow. Hence I was always on the other boat approaching through the fog from the opposite direction to escape being blinded down by a tug that was making the water fly as she swam. I caught the splash of a rope, and waited. So came the huge black canopy of the water. It posed so near that I backed another stroke to be out of the water following it. Soon I heard another tow rope whipping the surface, and I listened for several seconds, but hearing no further sound, I bent to my left, seeing sure that there were more barges. I had gone perhaps thirty feet when something caught the cable rose squirtly beneath the boat, snapping it into the air. As my boat sizzed, the cable rose again, shooting me out. When I went under I lost my grip on the oars, and on the hands frantically in about the hope of finding them. I inches above the water my fingers encountered something round and wet, and closed about it. I was capsized by a third barge had been towing after the other two, and its hawker had proved that I was Higher and higher it rose, lifting me above water until I was only waist-deep. The waves rippled against my body as a dragged along. I caught a last glimpse of my ears and water-logged eyes, and they were swallowed up, and I was left clinging to the bedden rope. I did not dare let go of it, to attempt to regain my skill. Indeed, so confused was I that the idea did not enter my head until the chance was gone. Lower and lower I fell until I was submerged to the neck. Deeper it was, and deeper still I had no choice but to let go, unless I wished to be dragged under. I released my head and was left strung in the wave, and I was left strung in the wave, and I began to rest. Should I abandon the cable and strike out for shore? I was not a strong swimmer, and the land was a mile or two distant. To start for it in that fog would be a bit more difficult than I could do by direction and circle aimlessly about of direction and circle. Once let me lose by some passing. My only salvation was to keep near the rope, so that I might grasp it when it rose. Once let me lose that, and I should drown or be run down by some passing. The water was lower again with a snap, catching me violently across the chest. Regaining my hold with difficulty. I was lifted up, up, until only my legs dragged in the water. Then down I sank again, in the rope passed below me, reach in a way that would not last forever. It was as if it could not sunk, the barges should make a turn and pull it from beneath me, so that my position would be serious indeed. I had no hope of going into the water, and my life hung in the balance. I knew that the only thing for me to do the lamer was once to one of the lamer before my sister became a wolf of mine the reader behind me was proceeded me a little every time I let me The image shows a woman standing in a room with a plain wall. She is wearing a checkered dress with a white headscarf. The dress has a long skirt and a fitted top. She is holding a bouquet of flowers in her left hand, which consists of white and pink flowers. The woman appears to be posing for the photograph. Wearled by my efforts, I felt that I could never climb that steep hill. I could not be heard above the rushing foam. Despairing at last of attracting me, my only chance was to ascend the hawser. I was fairly strong in the arms and hands, but the feet would have been an easy one. In my present state it seemed a tremendous task. My life hung on my power to lift my hand over hand. If I let go, the bargain Jaggerman, drowning me at once, I began the ascent. The rope tightened, lifting me so that it grew loose, and I was submerged to the waist. I was now far below the water. I inch by inch I drew once. More the hawser tightened, and I hung suspended over the surge being dragged back, blackened, and I allowed the stem. This continual motion was my worst trouble. I was clamped much more than I could.

Then I would resolutely put out of my mind the thought of being alone, and I would immediately attention on the handheld immediately before me. When by a heartbeat I thought of being alone, I alight on the next, and so on. Thus little by little, I progressed, crowling upwards. At last I was almost up to the "chocks" through which the hawks flew, and I knew that I could never clamber on board, so that my head came for an instant above the bulwarks, and looked into it, so that my head was not than three feet away.

It caught the back of my shirt, and I did not mind that it pierced through and drew blood. Indeed, I did not know it, for at that instant my fingers relaxed their hold, and I lost consciousness. I afterward learned that my preserver would have been unable to get me on board but for the opportunity assistance of another bargeman. I spent the greater part of the day in a bunk on board the barge at a coal dock in Hoboken. But the following morning found me little the worse for my adventure, and I went back to Connecticut that afternoon for the remainder of my vacation. - A. W. Tolman, in Youth's Companion.

As he sat in his way, he could not help but think that things were well with him. He and his associates had managed to shake our the well-held stocks that Mr. Gates and his associates had guarded so long and so well. At 3 o'clock that day the street was certain that the tremendous liquidation of the Monday and Tuesday following the celebrated drive in Steel preferred had just about cleared the Gates treasuries of stock. One thing alone troubled the magni-ture who sat in his way. To be sure the who sat in his way. To be sure the who had been taught its lesson, but there was another "outside pool" that this particular magnate hated mightily. And he had reason. He had been of those who sold Canadian Pacific at 130, and who covered at 140. Therefore Messrs. Cox et al. had earned his hatred. Yet was the pool intact, and men in the street—who knew the hidden mysteries—said that the Canadian Pacific pool was like to stay intact. What did you think of so hard a lady? He asked the girl who sat in the big red leather chair opposite the fire. She threw her book away as she asked the question. "Tell him to come up here. No—don't go. Dottle, it's only Ransom. We can talk with you here just as well. I want to see him in particular. You needn't go." A young looking man he was, this cleverest of the floor traders who lived by the orders of the great pool. He smiled at her as she offered him her hand. Then he turned to the magnate. "I got it. They are secretive, these Canadians, and they cost money, but I got it. I think that we can win." "Yes—but how? Where is the soft spot?" Toronto. Mr. A. to be exact. Here is the situation: He is carrying about all of his possessions and it averages him about 125. He will hold in on sight necessities such as the clothes he will do, of course for the pool's so limited in size, the stuff probably in 10 points, and that will get number two. We can force this one to be one of the most important transcript of his books. In fact, I have it here. Would you like to see Weil?

We want to make some Canadians and Americans are to do it on Thursday. We are to do it on Thursday. "And will they lose much money?" she asked. "Probably what they have in the market. They won't let go. They will hold on, making for a rally. They will always rally." Five minutes later she kissed him goodbye and was a troubled hook on her face. She took from the drawer a hook on her neck. It is a part of what she read: "I am Candice on every dollar of the world. It's down, let me all think it will soon go up again. The things it means to me sweetheart, If it doesn't-you don't know how long it can and I must wait. Peril always." The letter was dated Toronto, November 7, 2001 in Wisconsin the summer before.

Oh, She sat there half an hour, thinking desperately. At the end of that time she picked up her book, writing on plain paper, because she had no blanks: she held it, not your stock away down to 120 on Thursday. They want it to ruin some one. I don't know who said "Dottie." She went to sleep after that. On Wednesday she got the telephone office herself and sent that message away. The reason strange things happened in Toronto. That also is the reason Canadian Pacific never reached 120 during that week. She could not, who knew nothing of stocks, could not, who expected that they are starting and wonderful he is apt to consult his friends.

That bank must be opened. It must be opened at once. All preliminaries had been gone through with two weeks before. The executive staff alone were incomplete. That day in Toronto a bank was created. The staff was more or less temporary, and could not be called efficient, but there was money, lots of money. On Thursday night, November 13, the magnate received a telegram that filled him with wrath and amazement. "New bank Metropole opened here with Mr. A— president. Said to be to protect his loans. Money eased off at close rapidly. What shall I do?"—Knowlton. The ticker told the rest of the story, all excent what was in a letter that reached Dottie on Friday night.

Last week in Pittsburgh, Kan., an Afro-American was lynched by a mob, and two days later it was discovered that he was innocent of the charge which cost him his life. If the law had been allowed to take its proper course his life would not have been taken. Now every member of that mob is particeps criminis in the murder of an innocent man. It matters not what whites may think or believe about the matter, Afro-Americans are human beings with souls just as themselves, and should be treated as they themselves would be treated. They claim that God is a just God, then how can they hope to miss the just punishment for their crimes. In the account in the daily papers the greatest stress was laid upon the fact that the "Gully Negro Escaped"; not that a lot of so-called superior people had murdered an innocent man, prompted by their assinine prejudice against color. We too believe God is just, and that punishment for such crimes will be meted out by Him, whose Son said: "it is better that ten guilty ones escape, rather than one innocent be made to suffer." The Southern Caucasians treat the dead Afro-American body servant with great respect. What is needed is the just treatment of the good Afro-American citizen while he is alive.

Browne and Grace Grauvre and duogravure reproductions of portraits and views. Two volumes. Philadelphia: J. B. Lipincott Company. In her foreword, Miss Laughlin says: "I am a woman of love and women who wrote is an easily understandable curiosity. In large part, these women have felt that those men and women; their written ideals of love have set the standard for women who write so oft times blood not so young) coursing through the veins in a swift current; women who write so oft times heart not so young) with beating desire to love, to be loved, to be and forbear, give and forgive in love's name; women who write so oft times heart and hearts that once were young should wish to know in what manner those men and women would be, to be a wife, a real true wife, to any man—his eternally forcaded soul's complement—is a mission calling for the gifts and graces vouchsafed to woman. * * * All this being true of the wife of a woman, it is a man of genius; perhaps it is no wonder so many women have failed in this of all it entails. First is the peaceful love of Tennyson. One can but think it was to his first love, the woman he wrote the lines in "The Princess: To love one mademain only, cleave to her heart. To love her heart, cleave to her heart. Until they win her win; for indeed I know that I love her love; for indeed I know that I love her love. Tennyson kept faith with his malden passion and so did Emily Sellwood and on one occasion he published a "In Memoriam," there was a wedding, "of the quietest" in Shikaple churches, "of the most beautiful churches," Miss Mitford says, "which give so much of character to English lands." It is probably true of most women that their first ideals of love are of some one all, for some one to love supremely, as they grow older, their cry is first of all, for some one to love supremely. The man who can do most for her, the man who can do most for her, the man ideal is the man she can do most for—that is never supplanted. The woman heart is divinely on service, on sacrifice. One light that failed is the pathetic passion and to the best of his ability Ruskin From "On an Irish Jaunting- tried through six years to win his wife's affection and love, and with hers, but failed.

D'HARICOT The Adventures of M. D'Haricot. By J. Stoorer Clouston. $1.50. New York: HarperCollins. This is a volume of indictuous situations, described in a series by M. Blesseau and by Monsieur D'Haricot, a French political refugee. D'Haricot was a member of the French government, U. D. T.'s, as they styled themselves, "the last hope of royalty in France. In the narration of the story, the English "shall tell you since the affair is now no secret, and as it hereafter touches my heart, the rightful King of France. I am still; I boast it openly. But at that time, the government was alarmed, and I had fled. The truth is that I was already in motion, and I entered the history by the martyr's postern had seemed noble in the context of action, and I had desire only my liberty and as little public "I ate it till half past two" From "The Adventures of M. d'Haricot; Copyright, 1902, by Harper & Bros. attention as possible. I commend this personal experience to all conspirators." M. DHaricot encounters an Englishman traveling in the same railway carriage with him, "self-repressed, self-any strained and retieent," and after many vain attempts to draw him into a conversation, which resulted only in replies of "yes" or "no," accompanied by that "disconcerting phenomenon," the English stare. Later on I discovered that this generally means nothing, and is in fact, merely an inherited relic of the days when each Englishman carried his "Knuckle-duster" (a weapon used in boxing) and struck the instant his neighbor's attention was diverted. It is, thanks to this popularity, that they now find themselves in possession of so large THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER a portion of the globe, but the surviving state is not a reassuring spectacle. "before one proceeds very far into the volume, one discovers sketches of English life, drawn with the master hand of the artist capable of seeing the humorous side of the most pathetic situations, and depicting them with a skill which puts the author easily in the front rank of humorous writers." M. D'Haricot is not in England very long before he is drawn into a duel, which is described with all the wit and visibility of the immortal combat in which Bob Acres found himself involved. Some of the scenes and incidents of the story recall Mark Twain's "Innocents STORIES AUTHORS LOVES CHARLES LAUGHLIN VOL. I STORIES OF AUTHORS LOVES CHARLES E. LAUGHLIN Abroad" and are well capable of eliciting the metre in anyhow, how-ever, or in possitimie.

Etes & Co.) failure. The aim of this "Treasury" is not that of presenting extracts illustrating the development of humorous poetry in the English language. If that its purpose the anthology might have greater value for historical students of literature, but for the average reader it would be more appropriate. Although it has been the editor's puristically amusing to modern readers, it has given preference to such selections and something approaching permanent interest. The term "humorous" has been interplay in composition very broadly. It has been widely apart as the rollingick ballads of widely apart as the rollingick ballads of verses of Locker-Lampon, and of grotesque comicality of Gilbert and the curious from Couch, Chand, and Word there has been a tempt to discriminate between humorous and narrow sense, and society verse, epigram, and selections vary from broadly comic to humorous.

A remarkable personal during, and possessed of unusual knowledge, she are at once entertaining and authentic. The period immediately succeeding the French Revolution was one of the most unusual political and military movements in history. The overthrow of the French monarchy and the rise of the common people possessed a great interest for the present and future. For this reason, no less than the refreshing simplicity of style employed by the writer. "The Memoirs of a Contemporary policy is a book which one lays down with regret that she had not written more. The volume is profusely illustrated with pictures of the great men of the period, and the life of the people of the age of birth years discloses a face of remarkable strength—not unlike that of George Elliot, whose virility of expression she possesses in a marked degree. The "vanisher of folklore," she describes as being "serious in his demeanor, cautious in his speech in spite of the frankness he affected, and much given to flattery." Germany.

But he was a sure and devoted friend to those whom he killed. Toward his starters of people whom he rarely saw him who is not a free-man. Following Moreau to Italy, she summarizes his campaign there as follows: "Moreau gets the shattered remains of the army together. At the head of twenty-five thousand men of the most of the army of four times that in number and retreated through Milan and Piedmont, yielding only step by step. He garrisoned all the fortresses, beat the enemy and time and and through his skill and strategy, enderees, their unheralfordery ability of no special avail." At the battle of Eyleau in Germany he attacked the wounded. Just before this battle she met Marshal Ney for the first time and he was impressed by the "Red Lion" which we quote in part, "Had I been less well acquainted with Marshal Ney the strange host that seemed from the strange Restoration between his sentiments and that character, I could not explain a riddle to me.

THE STORY OF CUPID and PSYCHE The Story of Cupid and Psyche. Done to English from the Latin of Lucius Apuleius by Walter Pater. Illustrated with drawings by Raphael. New York: R. H. Russell. One of the most exquisite books of the holiday season, both in point of contents and mechanical make-up, is "The Story of Cupid and Psyche." It is a thin, flat quarto, exquisitely bound in brown and gold and printed in script type. The publishers have taken the beautiful English translation that Walter Pater made of the legend told in "The Golden Book of Apuleius," and have put it with it the celebrated frescoes of Raphael, the originals of which are now preserved in the villa "Arvelina in Rome." These with the preliminary drawings completely illustrate the novelette of Apuleius, thus producing a lovely book, which every cultured man and woman will burn to possess. A happier combination of two arts—the art of painting and the art of telling a story could not be made than Pater's English of the romance told by Apuleius and Raphael's pictures.

The classification results from the fact that the chief monuments are religious and those of the Renaissance, secular or domestic. There were, of course, there are a few Renaissance France châteaux, but a large proportion of the Gothic châteaux are all immodulated or destroyed at the beginning of the Renaissance period, and the Renaissance period is one of the great medieval style architectural building. The earliest monuments of a people have always been religious. The great medieval style of developed in France was the Gothic, consequently its first and most important mon- jummees were churches.

ON AN IRISH JAUNTING CAR B. On the Jaunti Jaunting-Car. By S. G. Bonatropomy. Illustrated. $1.25. New York University Press. Mr. Jayne must be a very observing man, for in his account of his amusing experiences he notes many things never before made public by a traveler through the Emerald Valley. Mr. Bayne was greatly pleased with the modern Irish jaunting car which he tells the vehicle invented for an easy and compact two-seater car, anced by two passengers and a driver. If one may not take the actual journey to the Mountains, they can follow Mr. Hayne's lines to the bluffs of Lough Swilly, where the Atlantic booms are covered with blooming heather and the sapphire of blooming heather and the hornhead, where the range of beetling mountains projects some ten miles into the valley. The range covers over 600 feet high and displaying all the beauty of the landscape, to red, yellow, gray, purple aur green; or to Lough Velgh, where an almost perennial bloom is nearly covered with Alpine vegetation. Over the top of this wall several large hills, the most beautiful beauty is the malacic Doolich standing 600 feet high. Referring to the numerous churches, forts, beehive cells and monastic ruins, Ireland has a rich tradition covered. Ireland calls attention to the fact that Ireland in the early ages was the home of the literati, where scholars came to learn and to teach all that was then known. The lands should have been selected as the seat of learning when so many more connoisseurs were selected. His explanation is that these islands selected because of their remoteness, of seclusion and better protection from the rains that had drenched Ireland for centuries. GABRIEL TOLLIVER Gabriel Tolliver. By Joel Chandler Harper, New York: McGraw, Phillips & Co. Mr. Harris tells the story of the boyhood of Gabriel Tolliver, a grained youngster in the Georgia hamlet of Shady Dale. He grows up along with her meaning by that only that she is the principal female character—Tasma Tid, the girl of Gabriel Tolliver and several other of the characters with whom the readers of Mr. Harris's southern nothing extraordinary, except to get mixed up with the Union league—the time is war—and the principal episode of the story has to do with his escape from prison, maraged by the inimitable Billy Sanders. There will be many who can muster only a few characters, and a natural humility Billy is one of Mr. Harris's best characters—quant, and a natural humility Gabriel at last, is a real girl, full of moods, but full of life and love as well. Billy is one of Mr. Harris's best characters are throughed with real people, black and white, and because Mr. Harris brings the scenes are laid, evidently is a replica of his own boyhood home, and one can see himself and Gabriel Tolliver and Frank Beume for certain boyhood companions. For the quiet of fun all through the story. VIENNA AND THE VIENNESE Vienna and the Viennese. Based upon a survey of the city, the Germans added to, by Marta Hornor Landeale, illustrated. $240. Philadelphia: Henry T. Stuart. This beautifully printed and illustrated volume, stamped in gold with the Auschwitz insignia, is a collection of careful perusal. It gives many facts which are at variance with the common knowledge of the city on the Danube as to be somewhat startling. The impression is very general. The estimate of the relative proportions of the various nationalities in the city of Vienna and the Germans as one-fourth of the total population. Vienna possesses for many students of municipality a rich and varied city, it carries suggestions of stirring times in the mediaeval period and in later years in great fashion, a city of mysterious charm because of the unhappy fate which lights the eye with its architectural and artistic features. It entices to close study in short, well worthy of such a work as this, a detailed description of the physical and social conditions which contribute to its peculiarly distinct atmosphere. It is only when the tourist could see Vienna as it needs to be seen, at close range and in minute detail, that the tourist could see the visitor at every turn, and parts of the city were shut off from inspection. Nowadays the stranger save the private life of the sovereign and the court and of the citizens. For it has been the world and has profited greatly by, for it now contains a cosmopolitan city, and it has given clans very like that of Paris.

In his introduction to the careful work under discussion, Mr. Allen outlined his plan, and said that the charism of the information that would be mainly historical, antiquarian, and above all, explanatory. The opening chapter on the "Origins of Venice" immediately makes good this promise. It is to please the author and convincing to please the reader, but it is no wise diffuse, nor does it advance any private theories or enthusiasm. Mr. Allen felt himself competent to indicate the ideas of the Free Trade on the observation of indicate what objects of beauty should be seen in Venice, and, with no underestimation of true artistic standards, proceeded to show, also, how it took the whole object of the right way. Fresh from "The Stones of Venice" the traveler might miss the inspire, special pleading of Ruskin's raphosodies, but he would get instead information to be used, and the aesthetic justice of which it must be artistic. How would either the light of the Adriatic city have borne the loss of the Campanile, for many centuries the tireless sentinel guarding the heart of the world. The most reprint of the "Venice" must either eliminate many passages or explain their allusions by footnotes.

Origin of the Army—Maintaining the Forces—Material Needs—Firelock and Powder-Officer and Private-Camp Duties—Camp Diversions—Hospitals and Prison Shops—The Army in Motion—The Private Soldier Going, first of all, to the diaries and journals of the men themselves and then to other contemporary documents, both public and private, Mr Bolton has constructed a straightforward narrative of the daily life, under the various conditions suggested in the chapter headings, of the private soldier who served in the revolutionary war. The citation of authorities shows upon what a solid foundation the book rests, while the elasticity and raciness of the author's style give color, atmosphere, and significance to the recital of the barest facts.

Howard. The ladies at the several receptions were handsomely gowned—as a rule, in full evening costumes—and were as gracious in manner as they were charming in appearance. The gentlemen who made up the several calling parties quite generally were full dress. The weather was fine, and the day was most delightfully spent. It is safe to look forward to a more general observance of the time honored custom next year. REV. IRL R. HICKS 1903 ALMANAC. To say that this splendid work of science and art is finer and better than ever, is stating it mildly. The demand for it is far beyond all previous years. To say that such results, reaching through THIRTY YEARS, are not based upon sound sense and usefulness, is an insult to the intelligence of the millions. Prof. Hicks, through this great Almanac, and his famous family and scientific journal, WORKS OF STORMS AND WEATHER, of the whole people not approached by any other man or publication. A fair test will prove this to any reasonable person. Added to the most luminous course in astronomy for 1903, forecasts of storms and weather are given, as never before, for every day in the year, all charmingly illustrated with nearly two hundred engravings. The price of single Almanac. Postage postage and mailing is like THIRTY WORD AND WORKS with the Almanac is $1.00 a year.

Quinn Chapel had its annual Christmas ship Christmas night, and an excellent force comedy, entitled "The Conviction" was enjoyed by all.

The solo by Miss Maude Williams was highly appreciated. The ball given by the "Business Men and Bachelors," was a success.

Concerning Shoes, WITH every step, the sole of your shoe must bend. The proper place for it to bend is at the "ball" of the foot—never at the instep. To make it bend at the "ball" things are necessary:—the sole must be extremely flexible while the shank or arch must be extremely rigid. Most shoes bend at the shank, thus losing their shapeliness and tiring the weak arch of the foot. That is what makes walking for most women so fatiguing. The "Dorothy Dodd" shoe has a shank that the weak arch firmly. It will not bend. The method of the shank is different from the ordinary—it is sewn and through—making a strong, firm shank than cannot need any other way. It has a sole that is extremely and will bend. The "Dorothy Dodd" shoe has a shank that supports the weak arch firmly. It will not bend. The method of sewing the shank is different from the ordinary—it is sewn through and through—making a strong, firm shank than cannot be obtained any other way. It has a sole that is extremely flexible and will bend. Established 1882. The Plymouth Plymouth Corner, Seventh and Robert. The Plymouth The Plymouth Corner, Seventh and Robert.
