PANIC IN A TABERNACLE.
Fen Thousand People Buried Under a
Falling Roof In Texas.


Fen Thousand People Buried Under a
Falling Roof In Texas.
FORT WORTH (Texas), April 21.-
All of Texas has needed rain, so the
great evangelist, Dwight Moody,
called upon his audience of 5000
Christians to pray for the foodgates
the afternoon today. Tonight when
the tabernacle was crowded by 10000
people Mr.. Moody announced word
had come from several points that
rain had fallen. A few minutes later
the storm burst on Fort Worth and
torrents of rain fell. Then Mr.. Moody
gave thanks to God and called upon
the congregation to join in singing
Coronation" and GAIL Hail the
Power OF Jesus Name; Let Angels
PROSTATE Fall"
The song had surged forth from
10000 Threats when a cracking noise
was heard, and the roof sank and the
rafters gave way, and the heavy tim
bers and boards covered with tar and
gravel came down on portion OF the
congregation. There was a panic.
Scores upon scores of women tainted.
and some men lost their heads and
piled pell-uoI1 UvSI th0na.
Mr.. Moody grasped the situation,
and moving to the middle of the plat
form, lifted both hands to heaven,
moving his arms slowly to and fro.
His attitude and GOODNESS stopped the
panic, and men began to go to work
to rescue those in danger. A drench-
ing rain was falling, but they worked
hard, and the wounded were soon
taken out and carried to their homes
or to houses near by. Fifty persons
were injured, some fatally.

Every man should eat and drink, and

When fields are full of fodder-shocks
An all the shocks are full of corn,
An when the frosted pumpkin Knocks
The golden glories of the morn.
An every night the farmer locks
His turkeys tighter in the barn,
An when they all go up to roost
AS high as ever they can climb,
Then we are apt to think it must
Be purity nigh Thanksgivin' time.
But when the corn has done been shuck ed
AM pun'kins made up into pies,
The farmers turkeys likewise plucked,
AM both are dressed, but not likewise,
An when the gobbier's done been cooked,
Whence many pleasant odors arise,
An nOthin' has been overlooked
That 'xhilerates and satisfies
Why, then, I guess no one misdoubts
Thahksgivin's here or hereabouts.
An when they bring the turkeys in
All steamin' hot an brown an rich
With ev'ry kind of seasonin'-
Burnt brandy, pepper, sage and SIGH
An things at only wimmen would
Know how to fix to make 'em good,
It's plumb astonishin' to see
How good we all feel inwardly,
AS if we's made just thataway
A purpose for Thanksgivin' day.

Nor mince nor apple nor sweet cake,
Nor nothin' as our folks kin make;

When I've been dead good long while
My jaws'll rattle with regret,
An when Thanksgivin' comes I'll

About Eggs.

The shell of an egg is porous and
any filth on it will faint the meat. A
good reason for cleaning eggs as soon
as gathered. Sometimes dirty-looking
eggs are fire sher than some that are
clean, but buyers will not believe it,
and. as they mist judge an egg by its
outward appearance only, eggs should
be made as attractive looking as posi-
BILE before being sent to market. Eggs
are preserved in two ways: By cold
storage in dry atmosphere, at tenn
perature of SO to 40 degrees, and by inn
mersing in pickle of lime and salt in
clean oak barrels. The pickle is made
by Stacking two pounds of lime in hot
water, and adding one pint of salt and
four gallons of water. Twenty gallons
will cover $50 dozen. Put fresh eggs
i'm clear pickle until the vessel is near
ly full, sdread clean cloth over them
and cover this with the settings of the
lime. Ice house eggs and picked eggs
are edible if put in fresh and properly
kept, but are greatly inferior to fresh
stock. If sold for what they are it is
all right, but it is all wrong and fraud
on consumers to palm them off as new
ly-laid eggs.-Farmers'V Voice.

Thanks For Better Roads.

Having been out to the south end of
the island during the past week we
were surprised and highly gratified to
see the amount of good work that has
been done on the roads this fall. Mr.
Ackley, Capt. John Boyce and his
brother Orrin Boyce are doing some
excellent work on the road between the
church and the store at the corners, for
which they have our sincere thanks as
it has always been a bad place during
the rainy season. Col. Farnsworth has
also been doing some good work in and
around Friday Harbor. There are two
water holes out near the Erickson place
that need draining badly before they
become bad mud holes and then the
roads will be in fair condition for win
ter. But what is needed most on the
island is good stone crusher for max
ing roads. One similar to those used in
many of the eastern states for mecadam-
izing roads can be had for about 81 500,
but that is out of the question at pres,
ent.

HOW TO PREVENT GROUP.

SOME READING THAT WILL PROVE
INTERESTING TO YOUNG MOTHERS.
HOW TO GUARD AGAINST THE DIS
EASE.
Group is a terror to young mothers
and to post them concerning the cause,
first symptoms and treatment is the
object of this item. The origin of Group
is o common cold. Children who are
subject to it take cold very easily and
Group is almost sure to follow. The
first symptom is hoarseness; this is
soon followed by a peculiar rough
cough, which is easily recognized ano
will never be forgotten by one who has
heard it. The time to act is when the
child first becomes hoarse. If Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is freely given
all tendency to Group will soon disap-
pear. Even after the croupy cough has
developed it will prevent the attack.
There is no danger in giving this RENE
DIV for it contains nothing injurious.

Making Butter.

In manipulating butter, never allow
the hands to come in contact with it,
as their warmth melts and Injuries the
grain.
Break piece of cold butter, and il
the grail is perfect, the broken parts
will resemble the broken parts of cast
iron or steel, also the same of some rock
formations.
The impression that seems to be cur
rent to a great extent that better butter
can be made in factories, or, as they are
properly called, public creameries, than
in private diaries, is an erroneous one.
IT is true that better butter is made in
factories than is in many instances
made in private diaries, but there is nc
reason why just as good butter cannot
be made at home Oh the farm as at any
factory or public creamery.
The art of butter making is simple
one, care and cleanliness entering
largely into it. Churning is an impor
tant factor in the art. There is nothing
in the entire system of butter making
but can be tested by any intelligent
and painstaking man or woman-Indi
ana Farmer.
