The Number ..rhree., in the Bible.


When the world was created we find
it and its surroundings composed of three
elements-air, water and land - the
whole lighted by the sun, moon and
stars. Adam had three sons mentioned
by name, and so did Noah the patriarch.
Daniel was thrown into den with three
lions for the crime Of praying three
times. Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-
nego were rescued from the fiery fur
mace. Job had three special friends.
There were three patriarchs-Ab Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob. Samuel was called
three times; Elijah prostrated himself
three times on the dead body of the child;
Samson deceived Delilah three times be-
fore she discovered the secret of his
great power, and the Ten Command
ments were delivered on the third day.
Jonah was three days and nights in
the whales belly. Simon, lowest thou
me?" was repeated three times. Paul
makes mention of the Three Graces-
Faith, Hope and Charity. The famous
allegorical dreams Of the baker and but
ler were to come to pass in three days.
Then we have the Holy Trinity Father,
Son and Holy Ghost; the sacred letters
on the cross were three in number, they
being /. H. s.; SO also the famous Ro-
man motto was composed Of three words

THE WHEAT PLANT IN WINTER.


Conditions Favorable to Its Coming Out
Whole in the Spring.
Under favorable conditions the wheat
root endures the severest cold with com
paratively little injury, especially if the
ground is covered even slightly with
snow. 1t is not SO much that snow keeps
out the severcst cold. Through a light
covering Of snow cold penetrates very
readily. BAT it probably is enough to
prevent freezing Of the soil down 70 the
extremities of the wheat roots. That
cuts off the supply Of moisture which
even in winter the wheat root must fur
nish the leaf to replace that lost by
evaporation. Deep freezing when there
is no snow on the ground turns the
leaves brown, showing that the root IS
locked in frost so that it can no longer
supply the moisture required. But IF
snow touches the leaf the evaporation is
from the snow rather than from the
plant. After the severest cold when
snow has covered the wheat the leaf
comes out almost as bright a green as it
was in early fall
Much depends on the condition Of the
soil in enabling winter wheat to come
out whole in the spring, says American
Cultivator, authority for the foregoing.
frequently too wet soil is most injuri-
GUS. But the soil, especially in regions
where there is little snow, or on high,
exposed places, where snow is blown off
by winds, may easily be too dry as well
as too wet On the wind swept lxnOlls
the soil dries out quickly and often
freezes to great depth. No possible fall
growth Of top can save tho soil from
freezing below the lowest wheat roots.
Then the more top the plant has made
the worse it suffers. because from the
numerous leaves a greater evaporation
Of moisture takes place. It is for this
reason as much as any other that low
clay lands sheltered from winds are best
for wheat. Farmers say the clay soil
holds the roots better. It is not that ex-
actly. The clay holds more moisture,

From present indications women will
get full suffrage in Australia before they
will in the United States.s The scarcity
Of women in the Australian colonies
prompted men to make the most Of wo-
men, and so every advantage was offered
to them, even to coeducation in the uni
versities. Old iron bars Of tradition did
not have to be hacked away first in those
blessed new lands. Consequently all over
the Australian British colonies a gener-
alton Of fine, strong, splendidly equipped
women has appeared, and they are PROV
ing themselves wise, capable and full Of
intelligence in all situations of life. In
a number Of the colonies several Of the
leading officers of the government are in
favor Of full suffrage for women. 1t is
expected, however, that South Australia
will be the first to pass the enfranchise-
ment act.

A Brooklyn physician says that he was
recently attending family where the
little man Of the house was in q some
what refractory humor, and thinking to
quiet him he said, "How would you like
it now if TO punish you l should takc
your little sister away from you?" The
boy sulked and did not reply, but as the
doctor arose to take his leave the child
burst into woeful blubbering. He was
asked what was the matter. Doctors

Beloved one, did you sometimes think
Sitting your cheerful hearth beside,
While boisterols winds through every chinA
OF door and easement 1noaned and sighed
That, after autumn's days are done,
Some foolish birds-poor reckless thingsl-
May strive through storms to reach the sun,
But spread too late their fragile wings?
Alas. how raany, dear, must die,
OF those sad, shixering emigrants.
At thought OF it tears cloud you eye;
Long shall we miss their joyous chants.
Tonight you love me; and you say
That their return with spring is sure.
But not those birds who flew today?
And you-ahl will your love endure?

throughout the Hills, the following
notice: Senator P. II. O'Rourk deliv-
cred his lecture on Intemperance and
the Keeley Cure at the M. Z. church
last Friday night. The church was
crowded and the large audience listened
with marked interest to the eloquent
and pathetic address Of the speaker.
Mr.. O'Rourk handled bis subject in q
mastery manner. He is an orator,
natural born, a scholar, refined in
manner, and his vast experience in the
world makes his lectures intensely inter.
estipg. All who heard him, speak in
the highest terms of the lecture. Mr..
O'Rourk is now citizen Of Gordon, en-
gagged in the practice of law, and this
lecture was splendid introduction Of
the man to the people. He has made
many friends in Gordon, and his law
business is rapidly developing a good
paying practice" Two years or more
ago the senator was resident of Custer,
and for time in the service of the 3.
4 NJ. railroad company. He was .
victim Of the liquor habit, and when
drinking at all he gave himself up to 1t
entirely. After leaving Custer he took
the KeeIey cure and for months enjoyed
his liberty as only q man could who had
suffered the tortures OF hades. Once
more he fell. and since then little or
nothing has been heard of him. 1t
seems from the above clipping that he
has again raised himself from the gutter
and is making gallant eight for free
dom from the appetite that has been Lis
carse so long. God grant that he may
