IFrom Winston Republican.

In conversation with DR.. Mott on the
train to attend the committee meeting on
the 10th ulto, we distinctly told that gen
tleman, after listening to an explanation
of the line of policy he was in favor of,
that if we believed as he did we would go
home and stop publishing Republican
paper. Judge Settles card conviets Dr.
Mott, and through him the late executive
committee out of their own mouths, of a
traitorous attempt to betray the people
and destroy the party.

The Cause of the Earthquake.
[From New York Star. ]

A crank in Cincinnati attributes the re-
cent earthquake to the efforts of demons,
imprisoned within the earth, to blast their
way out with dynamite. This fool has
followers. If some one were TO start re-
ligion with the ''Arabian Nights as his
Bible, he would not fail to gather a fol-
lowing.

Lady Beetles.

Prairie Farmer.
The Lady Beetles, or "Lady bugs"
are well known to every farmers boy
or girl, and are amongthe most beau
tiful as well as the most useful of the
great order to which they belong.
They may easily be distinguished by
the oval shape of their bodies, their
hard, shell-like covering, which is
usually brightly colored, with a COM
mon ground tint, or ornamented with
spots of another color. The lady bee
ties, in both the larval and perfect
stages, live upon other insects, and
hence are Of great benefit to the far
mer. They are especially fond of the
little "green flies," or plant-lice, to
be found in the summer upon almost
every tree, shrub and herb. These
little beetles form a very distinct fam
lily, which contains about 1000 spe-
cies, and which naturalists call COO
cinellid@.

How to Reach the Masses.

Independent.
The readiness of the people to go
and hear such men as Moody, Jones
and Small-ditferent as they are
suggests the great failure of our
churches ordinarily, to find the COM
mon people. 1t is an old question ::
Why does not the church reach the
masses, it is from lack of enterprise.
When old methods fail, instead of
seeking new methods, it goes on using
the old ones. 1t is the church's bust
ness to apply Christ's teaching to the
new social problems of the day, which
common people are interested in. If
there is a new intidelity or social
philosophy coming up, it is the duty
of the pulpit to be hasty to grasp what
is true in it, which is misusing, and
to show how this may serve, instead
Of oppose Christ. How little enter
prise is shown in hundreds of evening
services held in our cities before
empty pews, as if they were sort OF
available nOn-communicating sacra-
ment.
The streets are full of people who
want to go TO an interesting evening
service. If they will not come, then
let services be arranged, with good,
lively preaching by somebody whom
they will come to hear. The fault is
not all with the street people, but in
good part with the lack of enterprise
in the churches, which do not take
pains to make their services attract
IKE. oh, for more church enterprise.

casioned by the ravages of this bird

least twenty-five per cent. of the crop

dollars are annually expended in gum

in destroying these birds.
