To the Sunday Seheol Workers Of the
County.

5
We were unfortunate in the time
Of our late county convention. Farm
ers were ali busy planting corn, and
consequently We had lscareeiy any
attendance, from the country and
very few from the city, We We're
met, however. by our State superin-
tendent, w. j. Semelroth, OF St.
Louis, and had a pleasant and proiita-
BILE meeting. He is an intelligent
and live Sunday School worker, the
right man In the right place. We
had some interesting discussions
which resulted in a strong determina-
ton to make thorough canvass OF
the county with the view OF organic
ing associations in each township.
We have a vice-president for each OF
the seven townships, and competent
brethren pledged to give one day at
least IN visiting a township for the
purpose of organization and arousing
interest in this important work. And
now we appeal to these brethren to
redeem that pledge at as early date
as possible by putting themselves in
communication with the vice-presi-
dent and arrange for township
meeting. / think this had better be
done in the month of July or August.
The fifth Sunday in July has been
suggested us a proper time for a
grand rally all around the county.
Our efficient and enthusiastic Coun-
ty Secretary, Bro. ]. V. Williams,
has furnished blanks to each vice
president for the purpose of getting
the name and address of every Sun
day School superintendent in the
county. By calling at the office of
Bro. Williams those brethren agree
ing to visit a township can get all
necessary information in arranging
for their township meeting. Now,
brethren, let us go to work in good
earnest in this work of faith and labor
of love and bring every child in Au-
drain county under Sunday School
influence, and by the time the
Worlds Sunday School Convention
meets in St. Louis in 1893 let us be
able to put our county back where
she once stood as the banner county
and leader in this great work. Sure
ly no interest of our county is para
mount to this of bringing every child
in the county under Sunday School
and church influence, ,and thus lead
ing them to Christ. While the ambi-
ton of some may be to make Au-
drain the great ''horse center" of the
State and others the banner Demo-
cratic or Republican county, let all
good Christians unite in making it
the banner Sunday School county
and the most thorough christian
county in Missouri.
This will give US more prestige
than anything else and best promote
all the interests of our citizenship.
l, for one, am glad the State Sunday
School Association offers g. platform
upon which all denominations of
Christians and all good men and
women can stand and is the occasion
of bringing us together as brethren
in Christ to work in common cause
and for our best interests. If the
press of the country will continue to
aid US as it is so generously doing,
we propose by proper methods to keep
this question prominent in the pub
lie mind until our people are raised
to higher plane of appreciation
and duty. H. K. HINDE,
President County Sunday School
Association.

Reckiess Waste of rlowers.

The extrayagant use of flowers in
fashionable circles is almost reckless.
Evidently the tender feeling of the late
Lord Lytton toward the lovely blossoms
has little counterpart. What" said
he, 'thave the flowers done that they
should be consigned to graves and
vaults?'' And, respecting his wishes,
Lady Lytton permitted not the smallest
rosebud nor tiniest violet to be placed in
his coffin.
Costly and beautiful boxes and bas-
kets of flowers are sent to sick friends,
to be carefully banished from the sick
room and waste their, sweetness unno-
ticed and unappreciated anywhere; at
every feast and function flowers are
everywhere, and are often glanced at
only to estimate their cost; some esthet-
ie hostesses, in lieu of bowls and vases
scattered through the rooms, strew the
flowers loosely about without water to
revive their dropping heads, and in
consequence they quickly fade and die
One even went so far as to toss them on
the divans and throw them over the
rugs for seated and trampling guests to
bruise out their delicate fragrance
Could anything be more barbarous? To
real flower lovers this wasteful profu-
sion approaches sin.-Her Point of

Luncheon.

The home of Mrs. George p. Morgan
was, on Wednesday last, the scene of one
of the most enjoyable events in the an
nails of the Ladies' Aid society of the
Congregational church. The occasion of
the event being the near departure of
one of their-loved members, Mrs. Drew
1t was planned as complete surprise to
her, and after spending an hour or so in
the agreeable way which the ladies of
Aid Society know so well, Mrs. Drew
was invited by Mrs. Curtis to visit the
dining room, where, before her astonish-
ed eyes, appeared two long tables, very
artistically arranged by Mrs. 4. F. Glib
ons, extending the whole length of the
large dining room. Before each guest
was a lovely button-hole bouquet, sup
piled by Mrs. Marden. just before the
guests were seated one of the members
stepped forward and presented Mrs.
Drew with beautiful decorated souve-
mir album, on the pages of which were
written words of love and remem-
brance by the members, and if any one
had peered in the window at that time,
he would have seen more than one pair
of eyes moistened by the thought of the
breaking of the ties which severed one
loved member from the rest. With re-
gretful good. bye to each other, and to
their perfect hostess, the ladies departed,
the following being present: Mrs. Isa-
bella Gray, Mrs. S. K. Brooks, Mrs. c..

Accidental Shooting.

Father Remington, of this city, met
with an accident little after 6 O'Clock
this morning, that might have proved
quite serious. His grandson, boy of
seventeen years, had been irving to
shoot squirrel that had been bothering
the chickens, when the pistol prema-
turely exploded and the ball passing
through the wall of the house, entered
the old gentleman's thigh about an inch
to the left of the medium line, passing
out about the same point opposite. The
ball did not strike the bone nor any of
the large blood vessels and DIR. Eshel-
man who dressed the wound, anticipates
no serious results unless blood poisoning
should set in. Atlast report the patient
was resting as well as could be expected.

Secretary Blaine appeared before the
senate committee on commerce yesterday
and made strong argument opposing
the pending resolution authorizing the
landing of the French cable on the
shores of Virginia and South Carolina.
His objection was because the French
cable company, cooperating with the
Brazilian government, had an absolute
monopoly of the cable privileges between
the United States and Brazil, and if the
resolution passed, the negotiations look
ing to the procurement of concession
to the American cable company to enter
Brazil would come to naught. The sec
retary appeared to be in excellent health,
and made his argument with spirit and
emphasis.

The scorpions wonderfal Ear.

have studied the habits of the scor-
pion for many years, and have often
noticed how very sensitive scorpions are
to the. most delicate sound, musical
or otherwise. Under the thorax the
scorpion has two comblike appendages,
which are the antenn@ pectinate). It is
pretty well settled by psychologists and
entomologists that in insects the an
tenn@ represent the organs of hearing.
These delicate structures are easily
affected by the vibrations of sound, and
there can be. no doubt whatever that
they are also affected by sounds quite
inaudible to the human ear.
The slightest vibration of the at
mosphere, from any cause whatever, at
once puts in motion the delicate struct-
ures which compose the atenn@, to
which organs insects owe the power of
protecting themselves against danger.
as well as the means of recognizing the
