The METHODIST ADVOCATE speaks out
in meeting in this way: "Just at this
time our country needs a religion that
will make a man pay his debts. Shout
ing don't settle old debts. Shouting
don't settle old accounts with God or
man. We want to bounce right on a
fellow and put him out of church if he
goes to ball or theatre, but never say
a word to the pious scamp who never
pays his debts. Preachers and people
who never pay their debts are doing
the church more harm than dancers or
drunkards, for there are more in the
church than elsewhere. Reader, we are
getting pretty close to you. Then lay
down and go and pay up, and you can
read at ease. And don't stop paying
because the statute of limitation ex-
cuses the open account which you
made for bread and meat You must
pay in cash or God will make you pay
it in fire and birthstone. God knows
no such excuse as home-exemption
When you raise that excuse to keeT
from paying your debts you can stop
singing When can read my title clear.
"You've got none up there" Ye delin.
quents heed the Advocates voice. It's
Gods voice.

IT HAS DEVELOPED that the candidate
who makes the delegates in this town
will have to fight for them. Boss rule
is a thing of the past. The time has
gone by when one or two men could
name list of delegates and have them
voted for by Democrats and then do
with them as they saw fit. The Demo-
cracy is to be heartily congratulated on
this. 1t shows that they have been do
ing some thinking for themselves in
the past few years that is fully com
mendable of their intelligence. They
want to keep up this thinking and not
allow themselves to be imposed on by
the people who are after their favors.

proved the causs to be an ice slide. A small and

months ice formed against this wall of stone, in
creasiug in size until one vrss cicle, fully twenty
