BETHANIA, May Al will write you
few lines to let Won hear how we
are getting along about Bethania.
Bethania has not got any railroad,
but 1T gets there just the same. For
it has got dude and he gets there,
too, for he wears side-burns and a
plugg-hat, and his collar is so stiff
that he has to jump up to spit over
it. He has q small foot, wears about
number ten shoes, and is a fine fell
low, but the worst of all is that he is
one-of these white outside and black

AS you measure the heaven-pointed
spire, measure also the good its con-
slruction may have brought to suffer

which it springs, and see if the later
don't outweigh the former. Then 1t
will certainly have to its credit the
great good and comfort it will afford
the many aged devouts, who will

ARE COSTLY CHURCHES
JUSTIFIED.

Sedalia Congregationalists will
build a $50, 900 church of Warrens-
burg sandstone. By-the-way, is it re-
ligiOus devotion or worldly pomp and
pride that prompts religious denom-
nations to spend so much money In
building fine churches, each striving
to Guido some rival denomination
while so many thousands of people
are suffering in poverty that the
money thus spent might alleviate ?
This is a question that long has both
cred us.-WindsOr Review.
From one standpoint this looks
very reasonable, but from another
the expenditure is certainly all right.
Every cent of that 1000 on the
one hand was subscribed by men who
could afford it, and many of whom
probably had it locked up in bonds or
In banks, and the rest may have used
it for purposes tending in no way to
the alienation of the poor, or posi-
bly, in channels that fostered and
aided some very questionable business.
Not only that, probably not one fifth
part will be paid by parties In the
town in which it is to be built.
Money for such purposes is usually
subscribed from all parts of the State,
