In m address delivered last week be-
fore tho Cedar Rapids Board Of Trade
the speaker said:
To the press Thousands OF business
men eve all they have, politicians,
Tin" ar Tout. }" owe to it what they are,
and to the same potent power cities
are in \ measure largely indebted for
their rapid development and p, Osperi-
ty. The papers Ut Cedar Rapids are
helping every mans business it, the
city. whether he knows it Or not, and Il
man who dies not advertise is getting
something for nothing. Quiet the
press throughout the country for one
month and y"u would see such crasi.
! i" business that no pen could describe.
II j. IT, advert Using, the transmitting Of
informant ion, no matter whether IN the
form Of news or direct advertising,
| that i large proportion 1t the prosper
ity of the country is due.
And it is mainly due l., the country
newspapers. Take the country papers
with an average circulation Of 500 aud
out If this numb~'r probably lM will
read city paper while the ether 400
will depend upon ths country paper
Tor their news ami politics.
The men who get something for
nothing are more numerous i,l WOr,
thi"gtsn tina" IN any county town
within \ radius of 1OV miles. The i'd
vertisi"g dome by worthi"gton bust.
ness men will not average $40 u year to
eacl: business man. They are the
':p'kirst'' in that respect to I've found
IL Minnesota. Iowa or Dakota.
What Worthingtom needs il a fresh
lot Of mrm WHO will push AMI ;..lver.
ti*e. l'y =" d"ing they could have the
::de of tho west half IT Jackson comn-
ty. \ part IT Dickinson and Oscevl:s
c"untirs, Iowa, aud thtee-fourtls Of
the trade of Mobiles county.
IT this article should meet the rye If
any party or parties seeking n location
for business. We c:.n say to them there
is All excellent field right here for \
d'.zen pushing business men. Don't
come if you intend to sit down and do
as our W"rthington business men do.
that il, take just what comes, but it
you have the push to make business. to
advertise and drap business, We. can
assure you that the trade OF Worth.
imgtom can he doubled within u year.
II you are p0ky and have failed where
you are from lack Of pllsh and vim,
don't come; but 1t you have snap, lib.
erality. and business verve, come Al,
and y6u will overlap the old town six
inches deep.

Black Birch as a Substitute for Black
Walnut.

Saws the Toronto Canada Globe: Black
birch is rapidly coming in favor. Black
birch is a close-grained and handsome
wood, and can be easily stained to resem-
BILE walnut exactly. 1t is just as easy to
work. and is suitable for nearly if not all,
the purposes to which black walnut is
applied. Birch is much the same color
as cherry, but the latter wood is now
very scarce, and consequently dear. 1t
Is a difficult thing to obtain cherry at
$50 a thousand feet. while birch wood
can be had at nearly any saw-mill for 81
per thousand feet. When properly
stained it as almost impossible to distin-
guish the difference between it and wal
nut, as tits susceptible of "a beautiful
polish equalto any wood now used in the
manufacture of furniture. In the forests
throughout Ontario birch grows in
abundance, especially if the land is not
too boggy. There is a great difference in
the wood of different sections. Where
the land is high and dry the wood is firm
and clear; but if the land is low and wet,
the wood has tendency to be soft and
of blush color. In all the northern
regions it can be found in great abund,
ance, and, as the trees grow to such great
size, little trouble is experienced in pro-
curing large quantity.

What TO Hold To.

An infidel, passing through the shad-
ows that hang around the close OF life,
and finding himself adrift amid the dark
surges of doubt and uncertainty, with
out anchorage or harbor in view, was
urged by his skeptical friends to ''hold
on" He answered, "Ihave no objection
to holding, but will you tell me what to
hold on by?' Here is question which
men do well to consider before they reach
the closing scene. If they are to hold on,
what are they to hold on by? Where is
their trust? Where is their confidence?
What certainty have they as. they go
down into the shadows? Surely aEman
who comes to his dying hour needs some.
thing better than infidelity can give him;
he needs the guiding hand of Him who
is the resurrection and the life, who has
conquered death and triumphedsover the
grave, and who is able to bring us of
safely at last. He needs that hope which
is "as an anchor of the soul. ."-The Chris.
tian.

Always That Way.

"Give you ten centsi' echoed citizen
who was halted on the street by tramp
why should give you ten cents?"
ITO buy cork-screw, was the calm
reply.
''And what on earth do you want of q
cork-screw?" n
"To pull the cork from beer bottle. "
81 can't let you have it.
Every WELL" said the tramp, as he
turned away. Here I find bottle Of
beer in the road. If had cork screw,
could drink the beer and sell the bottle
for nickle. But for the want of ten
cents must break the neck, lose more OF
less beer, ruin the bottle and like enough
cut my throat on apiece of glass. It's nc
wonder that poor man never gets
along. "-E1.

The Republican newspapers are now
very busily engaged at making platform
for the Democracy to adopt at their
coming State Convention. Such dis
interested service is truly commendable,
yet we are satisfied that the Democracy
do not appreciate them, and are very
confident that the Democrats will make
their own platform, and that the plat
form will be what the Democrats will in
dorse and not just what the Republicans
would like to have them make and indorse.
The next Democratic State Convention
will not permit any new doctrine relative
to the position of the party on Social
Questions. It will but reiterate the same
views that it has maintained for years
upon such questions, and the plank in
the platform will be but repetition of
that of last year and that which has
been adopted by almost every Democratic
State Convention for many years. The
Republican press can rest assured of this
and need no longer worry over the mat
ter as to what the Democrats intend to
do at their coming State Convention

The United Presbyterians have at
last decided to allow musical instruments
in their churches. The vote was close,
but the fiddle comes out ahead. On the
proposition to change the law of the
church, the total vote of the presbyteries
foots up-For the change GIG; against the
change 605. The majority is small, but
a remarkable point in it is, that three
fourths of the ministers favored it, while
the same proportion of elders opposed it..
The old chaps looked upon it as invasive
and weakening; a compliance with mod
ern frivolity, dangerous to faith and
discipline. The ministers wisely deter
mined what is self-evident to all the
world besides. that musical instruments
as we'll as the human voice can be made
to act in harmony in praise of the
Creator.
