THE fourteenth tuinlvorsnry of tho death of Frances E. Wlllard was qulto generally observed last vcek among club women of tho East. Tho work of tho famous temperance lender and her place among the really efficient women of tho century are worthy of the esteem which they have received. Tho women of today tuny Btlll profit by the excellent poise and Judg ment as well us tlruiess activity of this brilliant worker. Her plans of organization were effected at a time when there was little foundation for this sort of work among her compat riots. "Alone wo can do little; separated we nro tho units of weakness, but nggrcgatcd wo become batteries of power," she urged. "Agitate, edu cate, organize these nru thu donth- less watchwords of success." In 1883 tho Womon's ChrlHtlnn Tempornnce Union was founded, and Miss Wll Inrd became its president. In 1005 tho Illinois Legislature voted to place ft statue of Miss Wlllnrd In Statuary Hall In Washington. As dean of Northwestern Univer sity and professor of rhetoric she was successful and efficient, and with convincing tact, a magnetic person ality, and rare Insight and Judgment, sho undertook tho lino of reform which was to ho her life work. Sln tero devotion to- n worthy causo backed by theso qunlltles Is sure to win recognition anywhere. Tho women who nro mourning for a chnnco to do something todny would do well to follow tho oxnmplo and cultivate tho spirit of this pioneer among womon organizers. At all times easy of access. Tho hapless ono befriend and bless; Esteemed, well liked, ho stately grows. Equipoised ho mental balance- shows, To uplift forms his bnslc creed, Assistance lends In tlmo of need; Ills fellow man to olevntc, Love, Joy and peaco nil round create. Tho children find In him a friend, VIM.f.uil n i.n ...l.l. .1.11.11. . . . i. ..unu m," iui uiiiiunuuu uays no blend; Their gambols yield him niirn ilnlli'ht Their winters innko like summers bright. Considerate, life's Joys he shares, Allko Its crosses and Its cares; Good will In pleasant grooves doth run. Honor and obedience- won. Tho homo becomes n Dethnny, Ono common bond of sympathy; Whllo happiness doth gild tho dny, Anil mystical ties of lovo convoy. Two hearts do beat nllko In glow, Two minds a Godlike naturo show; An object lesson muto'y teach, Foltclty within her reach. Cincinnati Commerclnl-Trlbuno.

Tnft, slster-in-lnw of Pres ident Tnft, It became known today, renounced her faith as nn Kplscopu linn Inst week anil wns received Into lite Catholic church. No formal announcement or tne conversion wns made and It was not until todny that even the Catholic clergy of the city learned of It. Tho conversion took place In the students' chapel connected with the rectory of St. Ignatius Loyola's Cath olic church, Park avenue nnd ISth street, of which the Rev. David W. Hearn Is pastor. Only n few personal friends of Mrs. Tnft, It wns learned, wore present nnd she wns formally received by the Hew Father Ilernnrd Vaiighan. tho English Jesuit preacher nnd lecturer.
