I get sorry sometimes for many strong layman who are capable some of these other schools they I of a great service to our God. look with such longing eyes to Trin- ity. The University did that for a long time and she didn't stop until she got our Mims and then Prof. Mcintosh. D' you see? We carry full size men at Trinity. I saw Bro. J. T. Thorne, of Fay etteville, on the train last Saturday. He is developing a cotton for Eastern Carolina, and it looks like he has produced the thing they need. He told me that he gathered a thousand pounds of lint cotton from one acre at one picking. Such an achievement is a distinct gain and is a valuable contribution to the prosperity of that section. And Brother Thorne has an other problem upon his heart and a more difficult one the problem of making his Sunday-school achieve its highest possible mission in his com munity. Heaven bless him in his noble work. I picked it up on the train, that Bro. H. E. Tripp is very popular in Farmville. One of his members ex pressed the belief that there is hard ly a better pastor in the Conference. The life of such a man makes our cause strong in every field where he labors, and it always fills me with joy to hear that it is well with him. I heard tidings of my friend, Pas tor Hocutt, of Hookerton. It looks like he has had "the year of his life." In one meeting he had seventy-five conversions and forty-odd accessions to his Church, besides giving some to other churches. He is one Methodist preacher to whom Dr. Johnson's ar gument doesn't apply, and who will materially change the Methodist count in North Carolina. But we got him from the Baptists and uouDuess against their will but are thankful, nevertheless. we I made a stop in Washington on Monday. One of the great laymen of our church there said that they have probably the hardest working pastor By common consent Thanksgiving Day belongs to the Orphan children of the land it is the one day in the year that is theirs. It will be almost impossible for the Methodist church es of our Conference to observe it this year. Will not every Sunday school in our Conference make the fourth Sunday in November their thanksgiving day and help us to re deem the day for the orphan children of the State? Sometimes it is the veteran of many wars, bearing many scars, that God takes to heaven and sometimes it is the cherub child in its sweet in nocence, that never looked upon sin and that never felt the shock of evil the one to grow in the perfect life of heaven the other to rule as a king and a priest unto God. Which is the better? Both for they are each God's way. Adelaide Bagley, the child that came a few days ago from the fashioning hand of God to Mr. and Mrs. Josephus Daniels has been quickly called to the life above to bud and to flower under fairer skies. Never a child received a larger welcome to Raleigh. Many of us i rejoiced at her coming and many of us sorrow at her going but it is God's way.

One of the World's Most Beautiful Buildings a ' . ll ifi; iCK 'ill lk iff LyJwfr iffy? wWtUyr Glrard Trust and Banking Co., PHILADELPHIA. PA. Occupying one of the most valuable plots of ground in the city of Philadelphia, completely surroucded by towering skyscrapers, this one story structure is the dominant architectural note in all its vicinity. Its chaste whiteness, its stately columns that sweep upward to almost the full height if its ftont facade, its gracefully rounded dome, as white as snow, makes it easily the m at conspicuous building in the city, and one of the most beautiful in all the world. The new Girard Trust Bui.ding marks the beginning of a n6w era, if, indeed, it is not the era in itself. In all America there is no building used solely for one business to equal it,!and it iB doubtful if all Ear pe has one like it Bef jre commencing tha work the question of the material of which the building was to be con structed received most serious attention from the officers and managers of the company, as well as th s architects. The first suggestion was to build of granite, but the architects strongly advised in favor of the beauty of marble for such a struc ture, and it was finally adopted. Next, the ques tion as to the kind of marble to be used was given consideration. The Northern marble 1b Boft, white and be tutiful, but, cn the other hand, it readily absorbs the smoke and dirt of the city, and it is doubtful if it Is fitted to withstand thi ravages of the frosts of thia latitude. The Geor gia marble id of a harder and more crystaline na ture. It is very nonabsorbent, acd does not seem to be so readily stained by the impurities of the city. Therefore, this magnificent structure was con struted centirely, interior and exterior, of Geor gia Msrble, from the qiarries of the Georgia Mat We Company. Tate. Ga. This is the most su perior American marble, having a crushing strength of upwards of 10,000 pounds per square inch, and will withstand heat upwards to 1,00) degrees. Pah.
