most who heard it, to he a good or

think that the best preaching that
appeals so much toman's selfish ma,

tivatingin the heart the disposition
to do right, because it is right. This
is high standard, but no higher
than Christ put it.

GRAHAM BORROW ITEMS Our farm
ers are busy clearing up their farms
and preparing for corn and potato
planting. On account Of the bugs
there will not be many potatoes
planted this year.
The prospect for a large crop Of
wheat is not very tlattering, still
there are some fields that look ex.
ceedingly well.
Within the past two weeks there
has been about two thousand bushels
Of wheat shipped from this port

of this community; his departure is

be filled by another just as worthy
and may he meet with success wher.
ever he goes.
