Thus it is not crushed, as by the old method of grinding, and the little oil cells remain unbroken. The essential oil (food product) cannot evaporate and is preserved indefinitely.

But the main thin? about Barr ington Hall Coffee is that it can be used without ill effect by those who find ordinary coffee injures them, because the yellow tannin bearing skin and dust (the only injurious properties of coffee) are removed by the "steel-cut" pro cess.

The wisest of us is likely to get "stung" once in awhile, and the experience might do you good. When you DO get stung on a pur chase, it will at least teach you not to experiment with unreliable stores, but to stick to the "tried and true."

Prominent Religious Corporation Passes to a Trusteeship. CHICAGO, Sept. 4.-In an effort to solve the "City problem," which has confronted the various downtown churches for the last few years the property of LaSalle-Avenue Baptist Church, once one of the richest in Chicago was transferred yesterday to the City Mission Society; financial straits a mortgage of $10,000 held by the Providential Life & Trust Com pany of Philadelphia the church found itself unable to handle, and the failure of its former rich members to aid it led to the transaction. The name of the church will be re tained and it will be conducted along practically the same lines as before. But the property will be owned by the Mission Society of the Baptist de nomination and not by the church congregation. Interest and a part payment amounting to $761 in all was paid to the Philadelphia concern by the City Mission Society following the trans fer of the property which is valued at $45,000. All future payments of the mortgage w ill be made by the society. It is the opinion of many that the church is so near the business center that they cannot support themselves and that if they are to be sustained a great part of the money for their support must come from the wealthy outlying churches.
