The collect- ing apparatus—a vacuum tube drawn out to a fine point at one end—was carrled up by a large sounding bal- loon. At the desired height an elec- tromagnetic device operated by a barometer broke off the point admit- ting the air, and a few minutes later a second contact sent a battery cur- rent through a platinum wire around the broken end, melting the glass and sealing the tube. All samples thus obtained show argon and neon, no hellum being found in air from above six miles. . Funeral LG_E_R_ Direcior and Embalmer ANNUAL FREE The W. C. T, U, held its annual free will ~offering meeting Sunday at the evening gervice at _Trinity Methodist Episcopal church, this being a union meeting in whith a number of the churches participated, and there was a lary ittendance. Miss Harriet G. Cross, president of the lo- cal W. C, T. U, presided, and in the opening exercises prayer was of- fered by Rev. L. L. West, D.D., of the Second Congregational church, and the Scripture read by Rev. P. C. Wright of the Central Baptist church. peaking briefly of the work of the C, U. as one of the great home ionary agencies and of its differ- ent departments, Miss Cross intro- duced the speaker of the evening. Mrs. Cora M. Seberry of New Jersey, 'one of the lecturers of the natigna] organ- ization. At the time of the state con- vention here last October, Mrs. Seber- ry had been heard in an Inspiring ad- dress and she was listened to again with great atffention as she spoke with convincing earnestn upon her topic of Public Opinion. \Nothing is so changeable, she said, and the popular hero of one day may be reviled the next, while the same city that strewed palms to welcome the coming of Jesus, within a few hours saw him crucified without word of protest. Yet. although so e ily swayed at times from one point to another, it can stand at timeg like a wall of adamant, and that has seem- ed to be the condition of public opin- ion on the subject of temperance, with the public seemingly indifferent and apathetic as to individual effort in this cause. But now the psychological moment has seemed to arrive for this great battle for temperance to sweep on to victory after years of hammering away at the legalized liquor traffic. In view of the examples of misery and degra- dation and want that it has produced, the wonder is that we have let it live as long as it has. A certain minister in a convention has stated that the nineteenth century has been asleep on on the temperance question and is just waking up, and another prominent pastor is authority for the statement that 75 per cent. of the church is asleep on the subject, excepting the ministers. There is a wonderful op- portunity and a serious responsibility offered the church today upon this subject, and it is time to look for a response from the American conscience on this subject, as it has responded upon other great moral questions, One response has already been heard and that is in the 500,000 women who com- pose the Women’s Christian Temper- WILL OFFERING For Benefit of National W. C. T. U.—Address by Mrs. C. M. Seberry of i\ew Jersey at Methodist Church ance union. Sometimes people may say that we have been a long time accomplishing anything. but we have been moulding public opinion all this time, nevertheless. and it is the cease- less agitation of the W. C. T. U. that has made possible in the last few years the victories of the anti-saloon league. Relating instances in her experience in W. C. T. U. work in the army and navy, which is one of their efforts to mold public opinion, a work which ap- pealed to the W. C. T. U. women be- cause they were mothers and wanted to see their own boys and other moth- ers’ boys protected and won away from evil influences, Mrs. Seberry said they realized that law must be backed by public opinion, for law and public opinion would be e mighty power to reach the forces of iniquity. She had been Dbefore ‘the legislative committee at Hartford asking that women might have the ballot on all temperance questions, and in this the women were not working for themselves alone, but for the men everywhere and the chil- dren. Denled the right of the baliot, the women were classed with crimin- als, imsane, paupers, babies, children and idiots, aud are dependent upon the men in matters most nearly touch. ing their homes, and she pleaded that this condition might be removed by giving them the ballot. Tn closing, Mrs. Seberry told of the success of the W. C. T.U. in securing scientific temperance instruc- tion in the schools after twenty years of effort, and this instruction she as- serted has been one of the mighty forces in molding public opinion. The great work of the women in the in- terests of personal purity was men- { tioned, by which through their efforts the age of consent had been raised in all states of the Union to not less than 18 years, where it formerly ranged from 12 to 7 years. The suecess in | abolishing the canteen from the army, through a flood of petitions, was als: | described In an intensely interesting way, and the fine address closed with the wish that God might speedily bring the day when this. country | should be swept for temperance and righteousness and there should: come a sense of individual responsibility as co-workers for the salvation of the world. After the coilection, which Dr. M. S. Kaufman asked might be a generous one, a hymn by the congregation and the benediction by Dr. Kaufman clos ed the service. For the offertory a duet for ten and soprano was finely sung_ by Mrs. Grace Aldrich-Crowell and Louis Brown. D. A. R. DELEGATES AT WASHINGTON.

Didn’'t you know that when you paid the fare meals were included?” Rev- erently I say it: Many are livine a meager spiritual life who could enjoy the rich feast of blessing which God has_provided for them. The work of the W, C. T. U. is to annihilate the saloon. There are thir- ty-eight departments organized to ac- complish this result. A few of us went 1> Hartford to make an appeal before a legislative committee. We received kind, courteous treatment. Four thou- sand women of Connecticut belong to the W. C.
