"That isn't the really serious ques tion," answered Miss Cayenne. "She is merely anxious to oblige. Why do we eager auditors insist on encour aging hen to gossip?"

Resulting from the recent-revival meetings held here un der the leadership of Evangelist Lyon, the Methodist Episcopal church has increased its membership to thirty four, while others who have not as yet joined have signified their inten tion to do so, and it is expected the total number of new members "will not fall much short of fifty. The Congregational church received thirty two new members last Sunday, and it, too, expects to add several other new members in the near future. While the Baptist church has received no new members as yet, about twenty recent converts have expressed an in tention to join this church and will doubtless become members of the same. The business men's prayer meeting meets daily at 9 o'clock in the morning and is attended by about fifty of the business men of the city. Rooms have been rented in the Albion National bank building which are used for the daily meetings, but will soon be fitted and furnished as read ing rooms, and an effort is being made to organize a Young Men's Christian association.
