Of large size and usually crowded WITH
peas. 1t comes mid-season, perhaps
midway between Bliss everbearins and
champion of England. 1t requires only
about one-half the labor in picking de-
tnsnded by many other varieties. The
plant is remarkably bushy, not over
eighteen inches high and entirely self
supporting, stem stout and stocky and
leaves large and healthy.
The branch shown in the accompany

Gardening grounds, where, in addition
to the stratagem, the newer introduce
tons of garden (wrinkled) peas, among

River Falls.

From the Methodist Herald, Minneapolis.l
The assistant editor of this paper
spent Sunday last at River Falls, Wis.
River Falls has population of about
1900 and is pleasantly located in the
midst of prosperous agricultural
country. The town is favored with
good educational advantages. The
public schools are well sustained and
the State Normal School has an at
tendance of over 800 students. The
absence of Sunday trains promotes a
quiet Sabbath. There are three
churches in the Methodist Epis-
copal, Congregational and Baptist.
At the Methodist church Rev. James
Evans is closing his fifth years pas
torate. He is an able preacher and
much beloved by his people. From
him we had the pleasure of hearing
two sermons. Referring in the pulpit
to the next Sunday as the last of his
pastorate he said he would then be
leaving them for parts unknown-to
him at present. A good choir, with
musical accessories of cornet, bass
viol and organ, led the congregation
in singing. The sermon was logical,
theological and earnest.
His subject was ''Your Reasonable
Service" Rom. 1911. He forcibly at
tackled the position of agnostics of
whom he said: Zone sweeps the heav-
ems and says, Il cannot see God;' one
with a microscope, peers into infiuites

another divides the joints and mar

conclusion; then all in great SYM
postum say The Divine has disap-
peared. There may be God but he
cannot be proven What answer do
we make? We retort that this in
sisting on experiment to detect God is
two-edged sword. Tyndall, the
great experimentalist confesses that
to account for life on his theory he
must stretch his argument back across
a gulf of experience. Spencer admits
as much. Thus by confession of its
oraataot ahvaoatao in tho raatn1 of
physical science, the mechanical the

gives grand testimony to the reason

self to my mind; that in the presence
of stronger and healthier thought it
ever dissolves and disappears as offer
ing no solution of the mystery So,
then his religious views are not super
stitions, but the result of the strong
est and clearest mind. The preacher
concluded with an earnest and forci.
BILE exhortation. An hours session of
the Sabbath school followed under the
SUPPLEMENTARY of Bro. White, who
seemed to be backed by an exceed
ingly efficient corps of teachers. We
saw no listless, inattentive scholars.
An interesting meeting of the Young
Peoples Society of Christian Endeav-
or was held in the evening, which was
followed by another excellent sermon
by the pastor. We hope Bro. Evans
will be followed at River Falls by as
good man as he succeeds somewhere
else
