Advertising in Dull Times.

The following from The Waukesha
Freeman applies just as well to Water
town as to other places:
Merchants invite harder tunes by
ceasing to advertise when times are
dull. There are certain Iires of goods
that sell better now than any other
time. Notice the big linen and under
wear sales advertised in the city papers.
DO you suppose articles are cheaper
there than here? Probably not, but
our ladies are attracted by the conspic-
ucus advertisements of the city stores
and naturally 90 there to buy Our
own stores may have the same thing
at the same price, but who knows it?

Wilhelm's Title.

The actual title of Wilhelm II. is
German Emperor" and not Emperor
of Germany" The German empire is a
confederacy consisting of four king
doms, five grand duchies, five duchies,
seven principalities and four free cities.
Within its own limits each state is a
sovereign, except as to it's army and its
power of coming money and imposing
duties, in which matters the imperial
government controls, as well as in all
international matters.

FOR sCOLDlNG WOMEN.

The Drank" Was Considered an Efica-
cious Cure for Viragos.
When a gentleman Of the sixteenth
century fell victim to a woman's
tongue he promptly locked up her jaw
-literally-in an iron stall, which in
closed the head of the wcarer, into
whose mouth sharp gag was thrust.
This gentle instrument of correction,
says the London Telegraph, has a
short chain attached, suggesting that
the virago having been effectually 81
fenced, was chained up by her lord and
master.
The Drank appears to have taken
it's name from the Dutch word pranghe,
the yoke of a pillory. 1t was in use in
Scotland, as well as in many parts of

suPERsT1TroNs pF THE TURKS.

Civilization.

They Are Not Contaminated by Western
Civilization.
The superstition Of the Turks is no
where SO apparent as in their fear Of
the *tevil eye Jugs placed around
the edge of the roof, or an old shoe
filed with garlic and beets (blue glass
balls or rings) are a sure guard against
this illusion. Whenever pretty child
is playing upon the street the passer-
by will say: ''Oh, what an ugly
childG" for fear Of melting the evil
spirit against its beauty. The peasant
classes in Turkey are, of course, the
most superstitious, because they are the
most ignorant. They have no educa-
ton whatever, and can neither read
nor write. STEAMBOAT is the only great
city of which they know. Paris is a
term signifying the whole outside
world. An American missionary was
once asked: ''In what part of Paris is
American" Yet it can be said that
that they are generally honest and al
ways patient. They earn about six to
eight cents day. This will furnish
them with el1mek and pilaff, and that
is all they expect. They eat meat only
on feast days, and then only mutton.
The tax gathereriis their only griev-
ance: they look upon him as a necessa-
ry evil. They have no idea Of being
ground down under the oppressor's
iron heel. Yet they are happy because
they are contented and have no envy.
The poorer, the more ignorant Turk
is the better he seems to be. AS he
gets money and power, and becomes
contaminated" by western civiliza-
ton he deteriorates.

in attendance.
Notwithstanding the inclemency of
the weather the beautiful little church
was we'll filed with an attentive and APP
preciative audience who came through
mud and rain to participate in the divine
service of dedicating the newly erected
house of worship to the service of God
and man. Yes. not only in spite of
weather did the people of Lamonte turn
out, but in spite of the fact that the M.
E. Church South. the Baptists and the
so called Christian church, united in a
grand union Sunday school rally, con-
tinuing through the entire day. The
Christian minister, who was in the lead
in this movement, came to Rev. Mr.. Clark
and apologized, claiming that he did not
know of our dedicatory service when
they planned the Sunday school rally.
But the fact remains that every one in
Lamonte knew it for more than a month
prior to the event, and the scheme did
not work, the M. E. Church North de-
clining to participate out OF respect for
us.
At 1890 A. III. the dedicatory services
were introduced by the choir rendering
in splendid style the following ascrip-
ton Of praise:
Praise God from whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him all creatures here below;
Praise Him ye heavenly hosts above,
For He is pure unbounded love.
Then followed an invocation by Rev.

a chant from the choir. Following this

Then came the tug OF war, namely, an
effort to wipe out the debt resting upon

men seek out and engage the best located

Then when the time for the meeting

Rexford's plan contemplates years alb

through Europe and the Holy Land,
thence to India, returning by way Of
China and Japan. No date has been
fixed for beginning the trip, and we are
glad to learn that DR.. Rexford does not
contemplate severance of his relations
with the Columbus church, and that he
will not go until its permanent prosper
ity is assured, the prospects for which
at present are very encouraging. We
trust the date for his visit may be long
deferred.

We doubt not that his hearers were de-
lighted and spiritually proited.
Bro. Arnoup also preached morning
and evening for our friends at the Bark

vass for funds these two societies might
raise fair salary for young preacher,
have services at both places twice a

Mr.. Arnoup also visited this church
and preached to good congregations. He
found them somewhat discouraged, but
with good town of some 5000 popula-
ton, good church building and parson-
age, and able to pay living salary to a
good pastor, they should not suffer even
temporary defeat or cessation of the
Christian work to which they are
pledged. 1t is understood that young
man from Ryder Divinity School will
preach for them during the summer
months. We trust it may prove to be a
most pleasant mutual arrangement.
