A NEW EDEN Where They Will Dress Only in Fig Leaves as In THE GARDEN OF EDEN Bow Would Yon Ldka to Wander In This Gurions. Fr?akjsh Earth ly 1'af-dise With k New Adam and a New Eve Entirely Free From Clothes, Conventionalities and Original Sin. Of all the freak new religions that are flourishing in the United States, perhaps the most freakish is the Adam and Eve sect of Denver, Jolo. Adam is a man formerly known as Jam^s Sharp, and Eve is his wife, for jdp'-V ^nnwn as Meliss&Sharp. The fundamental tenets of the new re.i0iuii are tnat these two interest ing people are Adam and Eve, re turned to earth free from original ein and just as good as they were be fore the fall and the expulsion from | the Garden of Eden. They have a divine, mission'to lead men and women back +o the Garden of .Eden, which they will "establish in the vicinity of Denver. The central figure is xiaturally Mrs. Sharp, or Mother Eve, as she is now | called, a handsome young woman of magnetic personality. It will be re called that Eve was unquestionably the most interesting figure in the ' Biblical drama of the fall of man and hia expulsion from the Garden of Eden. The role of man was the pas sive and rather cowardly one. Eve listened to the voice of the serpent and was persuaded that it would be delightful to eat of the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge. Then, mistakenly, she persuaded Adam to share the fruit with her. believing that it would contribute to his hap piness. When they were both punish ed for their disobedience Adam base ly and weakly attempted to excuse | himself by saying: "The woman tempted me and I did eat." In a restored Eden the woman) must be a stronger and nobler char acter than Adam, and the Denver) Mother Eve is so regarded by her | followers. ' How would you like to wander in j the G?rden of Eden with a new Eve, entirely free from original sin, curi osity, spitef ulness or any other of the , faults which have been imputed to woman since the fall? s ? This is the pleasure that awaits) those who join the new religion, and it is attracting people in considerable numbers. j There is no danger that this Eve wiM listen to the voice of the serpent. He may advance his most specious and ?le.Uiive arguments, employ his most winning and seductive flatteries, but she will turn a deaf ear to him. Mother Mellissa Sharp Eve will en vite no man to a picnic of forbidden fruit. It must be admitted that the mem bers of the new sect are a strange J looking lot, and it appears that the majority of normal men will continue to prefer the ordinary woman, with j all her faults, including her disposi tion to listen to the voice of the ser pent. . Your correspondent called at the present headquarters of the Adam and Eve sect a large house on Marion street. He was met by a handsome woman, with an enthusastic and vi?- j ionary smile upon her face. Instinc-! tively he felt'himself in the presence of Mother Eve. "Mother Eve, I presume?" the cor-1 respondent began, lifting his hat rev-! erently. "Yes," she answered. "I am Moth er Eve come back to earth again. Do you wish to enter the Garden of Ed en?" "I should like to visit it very much." She led the way into a large room full of untidy looking people, among whom were a number of children. A I will-eyed, tremendously whiskered man sat upon a throne and announc-: ed in a loud voice that he was Adam,1 sent to lead man.back into the Gar- j den of Eden. The correspondent sided into the most distant corner of the room, pre ferring to obtain enlightenment from Eve, who kindly accompanied him. "How do you know that you are Adam and Eve?" asked the visitor. "One night when we were living in Ok'ahorna and had been attending a revival meeting, we saw a star fall ,! and we knew it was a sign. Then we J heard a voice saying. You are Adam j and you are Eve. Henceforth you are free fom sin, and yours is the gift of prophecy. Go forth and lead the children of men back to the Garden of Eden." "Is this the Garden of Eden here?" "Oh, no." said Mother Eve. "This is only the gateway where the re deemed are gathered together and instructed before they are led into the garden. That is in one of the beautiful valleys of Colorado. We, shall move as soon as Adam has com pleted his preparations. "I shall dress only in a fig-leaf, as I did in the garden of Eden, and my husband, Adam, will redeem the world." "A-hem," ventured the correspon dent, delicately. "Would a fig-leaf be necessary in a community entire ly free from sin? It was after the fall that Adam and Eve found fig, leaves desirable." "Well," said Mother Eve, with a1 touch of uneasiness, "perhaps I shall be able to do without a fig-leaf in time, but we do not wish to offend the sinful and unregenerate. We have been sent into the world to bring peace and happiness and not to stir up strife. Whenever we need it, we receive a revelation telling us just what we ought to do. We snail know when the time is ripe to drop fig leaves. I have no doubt that when every man is a true member of the Garden of Eden fig-leaves will not be required. "How many people already belong to the Garden of Eden?" "Well, I think there are two hun dred of us now. Many of them are children, because they are most free from sin and, therefore, fit to enter the garden after Adam has preached the word to them for a short time. We gather up orphans and children of parent who are not able to care for them." , "Have you any children of your own?" inquired the visitor. "Oh, yes," said Mother Eve, smil ing proudly and indicating a boy of twelve with a bulging forehead and a solemn expression. "That is little Able. He is the brightest flower in the Garden of Eden. He has preach ed hundreds of times and he is almost as powerful a preacher as his father. He will bring niany of the race of Eve into the promise land." "As you have a little Abel, am I to infer that there is also a little Cain?" ventured the correspondent. "Ah,"said Mother Eve, "itmakes us very sad to speak of Gain. Yes, we have a little Cain. His name at first was Thomas, but when the light was revealed to us we knew that he was Cain. He put our dear little Abel on the stove and did a lot of other dreadful things. Of course, Cain could not come into the Garden of Eden.' We had to leave him to wander in the wicked world." "You don't mean to say you have deserted your child?.' "Well," said Mother Eve, "that is hardly the way to put it. Cain wouM not come with us. He is working for a grocer in Kansas City and is earn ing lucre." "How will your community be supported in the Garden of Eden?" "Every believer must give up all that he has and follow Adam. He will care for everybody. We shall need very little in the Garden of Ed en. I We shall not have money or clothes or houses or any property. We shall sleep in the fields or under tents, and every man will take what he needs from his neighbor. "There will be neither sin or sick ness in the Garden, for it was by sin that death came into the world. Adam will cleanse men from their asins nd lead them back to the Gar den. There we shall live forever. "We shall live on the fruits and plants of the field in the Garden. We shall not have herds of cattle. They were the earliest form of property that man took to himself after the fall, and they were a sign of his sin ful condition. It is wicked to own cattle and to eat meat.. He that eats the flesh of his fellow creatures is surely bringing about his own de strrct'on." "Wi I you do any work in the Gar den oi Eden?" "Certainly not. You know that the first punishment of Adam for his dis obedience- was that he should earn his bread in the sweat of his brow. When my Adam redeems men from their sins they have no longer need to'work. It would be a sin to do so. We shall just wander happily and guilessly in the Garden and smell the flowers and listen to the birds. We shall do no work forever and forever. Adam will preach to us when the spirit moves hiVn. Here Adam thumped his Bible and yelled out: "I am opening up the third king dom. I will redeem the world. These children here will help me." "A?a?men!" cried Mother Eve. "A?a?men!" cried all the oth ers. "Do you feel quite sure that none of the sisters and daughters of Eve will disturb your sineless and peace ful life in the Garden?" pursued the visitor. "Of course not,.' said Mother Eve, indignantly. "If you imagine that, you have failed to undestand one of the greatest truths of our religion. When woman is redeemed by Adam, she ceases to iead man into tempta tion, which is her great fault in an unregener?te state. Nearly all the unhappiness and wickedness in the world are caused by this fault of wo man, as you are aware. W hen she ii free from it, the greatest cause of sin will be removed and that is why we shall all be good in the Garden of Eden." "Will woman'have no desire to wear beautiful clothes in the Garden of Eden?" "None whatever," said Mother Eve," with conviction. "That desire was paid of her punishment for her disobedience. The woman was con demned to desire finery in order that she might perpetually tempt the man, and he was condemned to labor in the sweat of his brow in order that he might perpetually strive in vain to satisfy her longings. We are the new Adam and Eve, and we are sent to redeem our brothers and sisters from this slavery. Henceforth Eve, will only desire to appear as the Lord made her." The correspondent felt that he had learned everything essential about the new garden of Eden and he went away. As he did so, Mother Eve called out: "Come, and join us when you are pure in heart." Wined Out The Family. Thos. Baldwin, a rich farmer and former merchant of Colfax, Ills., shot and killed Chas. Kennedy and wife and Mrs. Sim Eisman and daughter, Cora. Baldwin was arrest ed. Baldwin, who is G8 years old and a widower, is under bond,. charged with criminal assault on Cora Eis man, who is but 14 years of age. He had settled with the girl's father for a sum of money, but was subsequent ly arrested and blamed the Kennedys and Mrs. Eisman for the prosecu tion. ! Grief Kills a Mother. Following the tragic death of her son, Robert Finch, the fourteen year-old Ravenna, Ohio, schoolboy who fell dead when his teacher was administering a rebuke for miscon duct, last Thursday, his mother, Mrs. George Finch, aged 34 years, sud denly expired in the doorway of her | home. Her death is attributed to a | broken heart. Mrs. Finch had griev ed deeply over her boy's death.say ing to a friend that she felt her own life was soon to end. The teacher waa one of those who sought to con Bole her. but the heartbroken mother was unconsolable. LONDON GAMBLING TIPS Revelations of an Illicit but Paying Industry.

The fine was paid at once, and u the judge expressing his surprise uat so heavy a penalty was always .aid by the proprietors without any iiliculty, he was Informed by a well ? uown police inspector that tho profits i a fashionable London gambling den requentiy amounted to as much as - 500 in a single week. In order, therefore, to fathom the i'ystery of this heavy margin of profit eihed from keeping gambling dens, je writer, accompanied by a plain othes officer, paid a visit to several aablishments on which for some ?ae the police have had a watchful ,e. The greatest secrecy Is lnvar'a iy exercised by the keepers of these aunts to prevent any one being ad . 11tied who is likely to "split" and ve Information to tho "Yard" which Ml justify a warrant being issued and raid made on the premises. The Interior of a gambling den pro fits' a spectacle which those who nay a call" for the first.time wm over forget.

As a genera] rule, faro is the game uost dear to the heart of the gambling len proprietor, for on each hand dealt i charge of sixpence is made, and, aS requently upward of sixty hands are lea It in an hour, it can be easily un ieistood that the dealer's commission soon swells into a very considerable ? um.

Teacher of Golf. The only woman golf teacher in England can proudly point to he- po sition as being unique. She is a pro fessional Instructor in the game and jives her lessous at the Prince's La lies' Golf club at Mitcham. Mrs Jordan Robertson has been teacntng for just a year, and in that time his given over 500 lessons. In one montn alone she gave 97. for golf is a game that ladies are taking up with enthu siasm, and they yearn to excel their male friends. "1 think women can teach women golf much better than men," said Mrs. Robertson to a repre sentative. "It is difficult for a man o leach a woman, for the woman knows (at least I do) the faults that A'omen make In learning the gam*?, ahe knows their .power, strength ana heir weakness, and can, therefore, iiiucjpate and overcome Uieii riifOcul ?e?

Current advertisements describing the luxurious appointments offered ' the modern traveler on sea und land Rive point to the contrast afforded- by tb?? facilities of the middle of the last cen tury, which were then regarded as the height to which the passengers had ? right to aspire. The issue of the Penn tylvanla Railroad and Mining Register of June 28, 1856, said: "The Buffalo Car company lately shipped a lot of cars for the Illinois Central railroad which are ftir ahead of anything In their line yet seen in the west One of them contained six staterooms, each room hav.'ing two seats with cushioned bacia, long enough for a person to 11? ar.>on. The backs of the seats art hung with hinges at tho upper edge, so that they may be turned op at pleasure, thus forming two single bertha, one over the other, where persons may sl'Jep with ?11 the comfort imaginable. la. one and . of the car is a small wash room, with marble washbowl looking glass, etc. On the opposite side of the car from the staterooms is ? row of seats- with revolving backs, similar to barbers' chairs, so. arranged that the occupant may sit straight or recline in. an easy attitude at pleasure. The other flvti ears have each two or three similar staterooms." The birth of the Pullman car came a little later. In the spring of 1851? George M.

The Three Lnckr Elements That Ax* Associated In Thenn. The superstition that associates tito horseshoe with good luck Is very old It Is Bald to prevail not only among English speaking people, but in all tlie races of Europe and In southern Asia Antiquarians are undecided whether Its origin has to do with ths material from which the horseshoe Ls made oi with its shape. The ancients believed that iron as a metal had great secret powert,, and they drove nails Into their walls as a protection against pestilence. The Arabs when overtaken by severe etormn In the desert cry out, "Iron, iroar which they think will propitiate the evil spirits which have iraised the storm The Scandinavians have held from time immemorial the idea that 11 was lucky to find a piece of iron. As regards the form of the horseshoo. there is no doubt that among the an dents the crescent form was much fa vored as having lucky or preservative powers. Ornaments were shaped In this way to drive away evil spirits The Chinese have their tombs built In a semicircular form, like a horseshoe, and the Moors use the same form Id their architecture. v It may be remarked that in the cay thology of Europe horses were also re garded as luck bearers, and supersti tion once supposed that a horse's hoot placed rvder-the bed would cure cer tain complaints. The horseshoe tliore | fore may be said to unite within Itself three lucky elements?It Is In the shape of a crescent, it is made of iron, and It has bet?x taken from n horse. Fashions Caased by Deformities. Of the close connection between fash ion and deformity there are many ex amples. Through Illness Philip the Good had to have his head shaved Shaven heads, accordingly, perforce, became fashionable at his court. The daughters of Louis XI. hid t'aeir very large feet in long dresses; hence trailing gowns. " The wife of Philip III. set the fashion of high collars In disguiting her long neck with a wimple. Henry Plantageuet Introduced boots with extravagantly curvet:, toes to con ceal a growth on one of his feet Louis XIV. wore a wig to eover un sightly wens on his bead, while James L adopted'voluminous trunk hose, aft erward fashionable, to hide hip dis ease.

Firm compression Immediately over the In jured place will often prevent discolor atiou. but the hot application will bave the same effect. The sooner the heat can be applied the better.

La Grippe Is Epidemic Catarrh THE disease now known as 'grip' nsed to be called 'influenza.' Itvery closely resembles a cold, but is more tenacious in its hold upon the system and produces more profound dis turbances. Grip is in reality epidemic catirrh. When it once begins it spreads ove:r the country very rapidly. People do not catch the grip from each other, but each one catches it from the atmosphere. "Most Effective Medicine Ever Tried for La Grippe." Hobt. L. Madison, A. M., Principal of Cullowhee High School, Painter, Jg, C, is chairman of the Jackson County Board of Education. He is a writer of occasional verse and has contributed^ a number of leading papers and magazines,?religious, edu cational and secular. In speaking of Peruna, Mr. Madison says: "I am hardly ever without Penina in my home. It 16 the most effective medi cine that 1 have ever tried for la grippe. "It also cured my wife of nasrnl ca tarrh. Her condition at one time was 6uch that she could not at night breathe through her nostrils. "Inconsequence, an inflamed csndi tionof the throat was brought about, getting worse and worse and yielding to no remedy until Peruna was tried." Healthy Mucous Membranes. ? Those who are fortunate enough to have perfectly healthy mucous mem branes ordinarily do not catch the grip. The mucous membranes lining: the nose, throat and lungs, when in a normal state, are an effectual ba.rrier against the invasion of grip. But, if there happens to be the slight est catarrbal derangement of the mucous membranes, then the victim be comes an easier prey to the grip. This fci part explains why some peo ple get the grip, while others do not. The rational thing to do is to kee p the system free from catarrh. In attempt ing to do this most people have found Peruna to be invaluable. Systemic Catarrh, the Result of La Grippe. Pe-ru-na Receives Cretilt for Present Good Health. Mrs. Jennie W. Gilmore, Box 44, White Oak, Ind. Ter. formerly House keeper for Indiana Deform School for Boys, writes: "Six years ago I had la grippe, which was followed by systemic catarrh. "The only thing I used was Peruna and Manalin, and I have been in better health the last three years than for years before. "I give Peruna all the credit for my good health." During an epidemic of grip r^runa should be used. The doses recom mended on the bottle are sufficient. After the grip has once been acquired, Dr. Hartman recommends the use of Peruna in teaspoonf ul doses every hour during the acute stage, after which the directions on the bottle should be fol lowed. Experience has shown that the people who use Peruna as a remedy for grip generally recover sooner and are less liable to the distressing and long-con tinued after-effects of the grip. When Peruna nas not been used dur ing the courBeof the grip and tho patient finds himself suffering from the after effects of this disease, a course of Peruna should be resorted to. Suffered Twelve .Years From After Effects of La Grippe. Mr. Victor Patneande, 828 Madison St., Topeka, Kan., member of Knights and Ladies of Security, writes: i "Twelve years ago 1 had a severe at tack of la grippe and 1 never really re covered my health and strength?but grew weaker every year, until I was unable to work* "Two years ago I began using Peruna and it built up my strength so thatin ? couple of months I was able to go to work again. "This winter I had another attack of la grippe, but Peruna soon drove it out of my system. My wife and I consider Peruna a household remedy." Pneumonia Followed La Grippe. Mr. T Barnecott, West Aylmor, On tario, Can., writes: \ "Last winter I was ill with pneu monia after having la grippe. 1 took Peruna for two months, when J became quite well, and 1 can Bay that any one can be cured by it in a reasonable time > at little expense." Pe-ru-na?A Tonic After La Grippe. Mrs. Chas. E. Wells, Sr., Delaware. Ohio, wri tes: "After a severe attack of la grippe, 1 took Peruna and found it a very good tonic." Mrs. Jane Gift, Athens, Ohio, writesi "Six years ago I had la grippe very bad. I read a testimonial of a woman who had been cured of grip by Peruna. My husband bought mo a bottle of Peruna. 1 was soon ablo to do my work. I con tinued using it until I w&a cuied.? Grove's Tasteless ?hu! Tonic has stood the test 25 years.
