WOMEN IN BUSINESS. What Is to Become of the Spinster in Old Age? “What is going to become of all the unmarried business women when they are too old to work?” was the rather startling question propounded at a meeting of a woman’s club. “A business man, member of a leading publishing house, said to me: ‘Have you ever noticed what a lot of nice old maids there are in our employ? What will finally become of them?* “These women are ‘nice.’ They are usually in receipt of a good salary, but they haven’t saved anything. Improvident? No, not necessarily. "They live in accordance with the American standard of living, and they can afford to live in that way with the money they earn, besides it is required of a woman in a good position to dress well. If they were saving, ‘provident’ you would call it, how could they save, at the best, enough to secure them from .want for the rest of their natural lives? Their business usefulness ends at fifty years of age, say. Some firms generously pension women worn out in their employ, but these are few. Something will have to be done to meet this emergency. Proud, independent, superior as they are and so many of them!”

“There-should be»a day for thinking about marriage,’* suggested a member of the club. “Just,as there are Labor Day and Memorial Day and others. Men in the cities are too busy, their lives are too strenuous to think about marriage. If thetre was a day set apart for thinking about it and a parade of all the nice men and women, who would in that -way see each other in the light of candidates for matrimony, something might come of it, and this growing celibacy be put a stop to wftiich threatens to depopulate the world, and these fine women would not then be left to a lonely dependent old age;**

“This is not one to be treated with levity,** remarked the first speaker with a ( frown. “It has not obtruded itself upon the students of social,economy as It will do. Spinsterhood was never so f general before as it is becoming. Jiust) run your mind over the women of this class whom you know. “Mark my wosds,. this question is bound to become the foremost social and economic qnesttton of the next tea; years." / ;

Social Amenities.

A man who dines out a great deal says he meets more frequently of late the hostess who “passes things” without an apology. It seems that company Istnot regardedin the sacred light of former days, and that women are oomtng to the opinion their husbands hawe always had that what is good enough for the family is good enough for company. Indeed, the women are carrying this feeling to’the extent that isome of them put on no extra frills for even a preacher. Saints above! Did you ever expect to see the day!—Atchison Globe. q

GREAT REVIVAL OF PEAGEANTRY

ONE DIVISION OF THE WORLD IN CHICAGO TO BE THE PAGEANT OF DARKNESS AND LIGHT. AN HISTORICAL ; ORATORIO Grand Chorus of 3,000 Voices, 1,000 Stage Participants, in Pageant Division of Exposition, Which Opens In Chicago May 3, at Coliseum and Auditorium. A great revival of interest tn pageantry has sprung up in this country and abroad during the last few years. Wq have had historical pageants, many patriotic and semi-patriotic pageants in various cities and towns; but none of these will approach either in operatic splendor or spectacular beauty the Pageant of Darkness and TAght to be given at the Auditorium 1 theater in Chicago, from May 8 to June 7, in connection with The World tn Chicago Exposition. The Pageant of Darkness and Light is the greatest historical pageant ever produced. It Is not a mere string of incidents but is written about a set motive by the well known English writer and novelist, John Oxenham, In four distinct episodes, all faithfully relating Incidents which made missionary history, the pageant before the spectator in a manner

Livingstone, the great missionary explorer, whose centenary Is observed this year, is seen resting In his camp from his journeylugs. Fast native runners dash breathlessly In, telling him of the approach of another white man. Then in a movement of dramatic Intensity Stanley enters. He beseeches Livingstone to return to civilisation with him, but Livingstone refuses. "My work," he says, “is not yet done.” At this the natives break into a song of thanksgiving. Mob Scene In India. From Africa the scene changes to India. The curtain rises on a furious mob assailing the house of an English missionary, demanding a native child, Rhadamani, whom they wish to marry io an old man. The governor disperses the mob. Rhadamani then furtively enters and Implores the missionary to save her, but both missionary and governor are helpless. Time passes, and a funeral procession enters. Rhadamani has become a widow and is about to be burned alive on the funeral pyre with her dead husband —the custom of Suttee. As Rhadamani throws herself on the body of her husband and the torch Is being applied, the governor, with a company of Sepoys, enters with a proclamation abolishing Suttee forever. The young widow is saved from an awful death.

The next, or fourth episode, is taken from Hawaii, on the beach of which the natives are gathered for a wedding. A priest of the Goddess Pels demands that the bridegroom and a child playing on the beach be given over to him for a sacrifice and cast into the crater of a volcano. The Christian queen, Kapiolani, taunts the priest, however, and the volcano remaining quiet, breaks the priest’s power, and the superstition of the crater of the volcano is quieted forever. 3,000 In Grand Chorus.

The music of the pageant was written by Hanish McCunn, a noted Scottish composer. It is filled with weird chants, strong war songs and beautiful choruses of Jubilee. Harrison M. Wild, conductor of the famous Apollo and Mendelssohn clubs of Chicago, is ths conductor, while the staging of the pageant is under the direction Of Percy J. Burrell of Boston. A chorus of 8,000 voices has been recruited for the songs and more than 1,000 per eons will appear on the big Audtt*"~ ium stage.

PRAYERS.

It is too small and unsatisfying Whatsoever thou bestowe'st upon me apart from thyself, of revealest to whilst thou art not seen, or promises! whilst thou art not obtained.—Thomas a Kemple. O eternal light, shine in our hearts! O eternal goodness, deliver us from ' evil. O eternal power, be thou our support. Eternal wisdom, scatter the darkness of our Ignorance. Eternal pity, have mercy on us.—Alculn (A. D. 780). Do not: punish me, I beseech thee, by granting that which I wish if it would offend thy love, which I would have always live in me. —St. Theresa (A. D. 1515). Make us, O Lord, to flourish like pure lilies in the courts of thine house and so show forth the fragrance of a good life —Mozarabie Sacramentary. O God, perfect in us love, that we may conquer all selfishness and hatred of others. —Henry Alford. Lord, I know not what I ought to ask of thee. Thou only knowest what I need. Thou lovest me better than I know how to love myself. Teach me to pray. Pray thyself in me.-Francois de la Mothe Fenelon. Let me never consider my true happiness as depending on anything that can befall me outwardly, but as consistigg altogether, in conformity to thy will. —Henry Martyn.

Otis Crandall, of Wadena, To the Bed Legs.

Otis Crandall, pitcher for the New York Giants, whose home is at Wadena, Ind., a few miles from Rensselaer, has been sent to Cincinnati by Manager McGraw. Waivers were asked on the veteran Monday and Joe Tinker refused to waive. Otis joined the Giants on ;he spring training trip of 1906 and las been with them ever since. He las been one of the most reliable iwirlers on the Giant staff, being used the most of the time as a re> let hurler and always performing nobly. Besides pitching, Otis was ;he most valuable pinch hitter in he league, saving many a game for ;he McGrawites by his long and ilmely bingles. His most notable piece of pinch hitting was in the world’s series of 1910, when he out a double off Jack Coombs in ;he tenth inning, and winning that game for New York. Otis probably will be retained by Cincinnati club, who are trailing the league at present and have but one reliable lurler on the staff, Recuit Indian Johnson. In the season of 1909 Otis led the National League mound artists with 18 wins and 6 defeats for a percentage of 750, besides leading the league in batting several times. Here’s hoping that he sticks in the big show for several seasons, Carl Crandall, brother of Otis, has won his way into the hearts of the Indianapolis fans by his clever shortstopping and timely hitting.

Reports speak very favorably of the big Sparks circus, which is to be at Rensselaer Wednesday, May 21, and our people will probably be there in force, as they generally go in for this sort of entertainment. The high school petition has been pretty well circulated by Frank Goff, Felix Erwin, Al Blake, Bam Potts and W. McConnell. They report that they have quite a large majority of the voters of the township on their list, and nearly every one seems to. think that Fair Oaks is the proper place for it. In an article in Tuesday’s Republican the writer seemed to think that F. M. Goff was the only one carrying the petition, but we wish to inform him that all of the above named men are circulating the petition and were willing to give their time and Influence in favor of Fair Oaks.
