They have an opportunity to learn trades and attend the High school. They have no system of collecting money, nor have they any agents or representatives in any place, bor make any appeal to the public for ald, but for all things needed wait patiently upon God in prayer. He is “able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think.” Any child in need, without regard to nationality or creed, is received, providing there Is room in the in- stitution. In each case strict investigation is made to see if the child is needy or not. Applications are d&alt with in the same order as they are received.

Food soured n my stomach, causing me to belch ; and I had terrible heart burn, with pains in my chest and arms. My heart became affected ; I had short- mess of breath; the action of my kidneys was irregular, the secretions scanty and scalding. I was knocked out, and good for mothing, when I read about ‘Fruit- a-tives’ and sent for a box.

When they are received it is generally understood that they snall remain until’they are able to support themselves. ;" Shonld - the relative, after alteped circumswances in life, desire to take the child back, they may have liberty to do so. At the age of 14 or 15, when the children have finished their school course, the boys will be given oppor- tunity to learn some trade or busi- ness, and the girls shall remain at the home until they are about 17 or 18 vears of age and be taught to do housework, baking, cooking, sewing, etc. Any expense in connection with their apprenticeship or their business education will be met by the funds of the, institution. Boys and girls who are bright will have the advantage ot High school education. Work is progressing rapidly on the new building and hopes are enter- tained for its completion at an early date in order to go on with the ex- cellent work of the home. It will be modern in cvery detail and will pro- vide adequate room for the children.

Jerusalem, July 23.—The office of governor of Jerusalem once occupied by Pontius Pilate, is now held by Colonel Ronald Storrs, a graduate of Cambridge university and son of the Dean of Rochester College, England. His task is one to test the adminis- trative ability of any man. Jerusalem is a city of disunions, where, what- ever may come of the future, for the | moment Zionists and Arabs are pas- | sionately’ divided and to steer a just | patch between them and induse them to join him on that path is thankless | work. It is to that task however, that he chiefly devotes himself. Twice a week he has meetings of his favorite pro-Jerusalem society, where French, Italfans, British, Amecricans, rabbis, Zionists, leaders, commercial men of standing and others who are in any way prominent in the life of the city are brought together and in the course of debate, led to sce that they have in common a single citizenship. His motto as governor is “unify and be friends. Colonel Storrs was one of the prime movers in the establishment of an independent Arab kingdom. He is 38 years old. 30,000 MINERS IDLE Operations in Sou Fields Proceed But Scale Because of Strike, hern Illinois Coal on Reduced Belleville, I1l., July 24.—Operations in the southern Illinois coal fields to- day were proceeding on a greatly re- duced scale on account of the unau- thorized strike of day laborers which started Wednesday and has spread steadily.

N X N SONINm N N REFERENDUM ON R.R. WAGE BOARD AWARD Brotherhoods Urge Against Any Strike Action Chicago, July 24.—An order for a nation-wide referendum by railway employves on the wage award of the federal labor board was sent out to- day with a strong plea against a strike by the executives of the rail- road brotherhoods. “The labor board,” the order states, “is the highest court of appeal in this controversy. No higher tribunal is created by the transportation act and its decision must either be accepted or rejected without further negotia- tion. “Although the award was much less than the employves should have been granted, much less than they were en- titled to, and although they are, and have a right to be disappointed with the amount of increase in wages granted, more than 84 per cent. ot them have agreed through their rep- resentatives to accept the award.” An appeal is made to the federated shop crafts *““which constitute not more than 22 per cent. of the total employes of the railroads” to vote in | support of the action of the majority. The Chicago Yardmen's association, represented by 5,000 members, in- cluding 70 delegates selected to rep- resent the various outlaw organiza- tions, voted unanimously to reject the railroad wage ause it con- tained no prov: r the seniority rights of the men who struck last April. “The strike could be settled in 48 hours if the roads would concede that one point,” id John Grunau, presi- dent of the association. o co PAIB4 Q:‘ c/,,, o SANT4, 0, 2 2 CAPSULES 7 That’s Only a Trivial Matter.
