A Fox Story.

The Rev. J. Murray, in his work
on the creation, relates that on one
occasion an acquaintance of his
was out shooting wild ducks. On
reaching bend of the stream he
saw six wild geese out Of range. He
crouched down in the hope that
they would presently come nearer.
While thus concealed he observed
fox stealing down to the bank, on
reaching which he remained mo-
tionless, with his eyes on the geese.
At length he retired, but presently
reappeared carrying in his mouth
very large bundle of moss. He
entered the water silently, sank
himself, and then keeping the moss
above the water, himself concealed,
he f1oated among the geese. Sud-
denly one of them was drawn under
the water and the fox soon appeared
on the bank with the goose on his
back. Close to the waters edge he
found hole, caused by the uproot-
ing of tree. This hole he cleared
out and enlarged, placed his goose
at the bottom of it and covered the
prize with leaves and dry litter, Of
which there was abundance close
at hand. The fox then took his de-
parture, and the interested watcher
went to the hole and removed the
goose, taking care to restore things
to their former appearance. Then
he resolved to see what followed.
In about half an hour the fox re-
turned in company with another.
They went straight to the place
where the goose was buried and re-
moved the earth. No goose there.
They stood looking at each other
for some time, and then suddenly
the second fox attacked the other
most furiously, as though enraged
by having a trick played on him.

GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY.
People should Live 100 Years and Enjoy
Life All the While.

TO grow old gracefully. says the we'll known
DIR. Gardner. lis not the common lot OF all.
With advancing years come Increased fnfirmi-
ties, but they are by no means unavoidable and
their presence is due to failure to keep up TO
their work the various organs OF the
body The study OF the body by scientists
furnishes unquestionable evidence that the
duration OF human life may be prolonged TO 100
years.
So says DR.. Gardner, and yet what more com
mon than to see q prematurely aged, withered
and broken down man. or a pale, weak and
emaciated old lady. The spirit is broken; all
interests gone from life, and they look for
ward only 10 death The sadiest thin. Of all
is needless IL can easily be avoided by a little
care and assisting nature just little, and IL IS
upon this point that Or. Gardner again speaks
most clearly.
He says. Science, common sense and all ex-
perence testify 10 the benefits 10 he derived

was there were no Congregational house
holds in that section 10 affiliate with.
The first church ediice was burnt down
during the Revolutionary war. The present
very respectable building was put up in the
early part OF this century. The dense
population OF freedmen in that locality
have stood the cost Of Midway sanctuary
for keeping up repairs. Rev Waite, a
former member OF Georgia presbytery, is
their faithful pastor. He is sustained by
northern friends and reported TO be doing a
good work. Both Sunday and week day
school are sustained. and the blacks are re-
ported In progressive posture.
Miss Anne VIM and Rev. Henry J. Rip
ley were married about 1924. Soon after
their nuptials he became preceptor OF
Walthourville Academy. Attic same time
he preached every Lords day at North
Newport Baptist church-onerous work
for young divine with very little pulpit
material on hand.
He was gentleman of finished educa-
ton, cultivated manners. a most amiabie
disposition and winning ways. As such he
greatly eudesred himself to the people
OF Liberty county of all religious denom-
nations
But wider field soon opened to him. He
was duly called TO professorship in the
Newton Baptist Theological Seminary-the
young preacher instructing others TO preach.
That was his life work, and it was an emf
nent success. He there had conferred upon
Tim the academic title of ID. D., LII. d.
In 1874 DIR. Ripley and wife celebrated
their golden wedding. and he went TO an
honored grave soon after. The writer has
been to the cemetery and the monument.
And now scarcely one month since his be-
loved life partner was laid by his side,
jointly to wait the resurrection trumpet.
Peter VIM, the father OF Mrs. Ripley,
was long years ago deacon in Midway
church. About then came along an itinerat-
ing Baptist clergyman, who managed to up
set his views with respect alike 20 the mode
and subjects of the rite, and he joined that
denomination. His four elder children de-
clined to follow their parent, and adhered
TO the Midway congregation. The last son
to hold on to residence at the old plantation
was Washington. he was buried from
there in Midway brick-walled cemetery
about generation back. His elder
brother, John, is believed TO have been the
very first native Georgian graduating at
Yale college.
Midway was so called because the locality
is equi-distant between the rivers OF
Ogeschee and Altamaha. No more inter
estinR spot than to wander through Mid
ways ancient cemetery and read inscrip-
tions to monuments there.
The church has ,bsen the grand nucleus
and educator to citizenship in Liberty
county. Perhaps no religious congregation
in the state has contributed to more
shape the destinies of the commonwealth.
Among prominent clergymen emanating
from Midway church might be enrolled
Francis GoulGing, Daniel Baker, G. p.
Jones and S. j. Cassels. Among the lawyers,
William Lane, w. B. Fleming, John g.
Ward and E. H. Bacon. Among the ply
sicians, DR.. John Harden and Dr. William

HIS extensive plantation, beautified with
spreading i've oaks, was only one mile from
Midway church. A colony of puritans
came with their minister, Rev. John Osgood.
They came in body from Dorchester,
Mass, to Dorchester, s. c., and thence to
Midway, Liberty county. The church was
of the congregational order, and so con-
tinued till after tine late civil war. Then the
white members Withdrew. and organized
into seperate Presbyterian bpdies
at Dorchester and Pennington. Walthour-
vile, the larger summer retreat, had
previously adopted the distinctive form Of
John Knox. But, while the church was
from the start nominally Congregational
it was in effect Presbyterian. It's colleague
pastors were Presbyterian and its con-
tributions went into the Presbyterian
treasury. The many minis ers which
emanated from that, as a mother, became
Presbyterian rather than Congregational
clergymen. One reason, perhaps, for that

nus IL Is evident that whether we take
Mr.. PoTter's figures without any allowance
Tor the effects Of the war, or with the effects
OF the war added, neither one nor both can
account for the loss OF population, which is,
as shown by him, greater during the decade
just ended than it was during the decade of
hospitals, prison pens and battlehelds. The
percentage Of 1890, to be in harmony with
the whole line Of preceding decades, except
that of the war. should have beel nearly
20, which would have given us a total pop
ulation Of g. 000, 900 or 66.000, 000."
Mr.. Mills concludes his article with a
careful Jnsideration of the announced
population of separate states.
