Alliance Notes.

Prairie Center Alliance, Usage county,
has more than 100 members. They
adopted rule some time ago that each
member should be prepared with quo
tstion from some author. They answer
roll call by giving the question and the
name OF the author. They also have a
literary program for each meeting. Their
lecturer is always present aud always
ready with words Of advice and good
cheer.
~
Some years ago Ossgs county Alliance
ordered q handsome banner which was
to be presented to the sub. Alliance
which reported the greatest number Of
initistiors at the next quarterly meet
ing. The Alliance securing it at that
time held it until the next county meet
ing, when all Alliances again reported
and the one making the greatest gain
took the banner. This had proven quite
q factor in keeping up the membership
in that county. 1t may be used profit
ably elsewhere.

from Mr.. Gladstone anent the sultan and

Dear Nine. Novkoff-I shall carefully
and for many reasons keep myself to my
self. see in mind that wretched sultan,
whom God has given as a curse to man
kind, waving his flag in triumph and the
adversaries at his feet are Russia, France
and England.
"As to the division Of shame among
them, / care little enough, but hope that
my country will, for its own good, be
made conscious and exhibited TO the
world for its own share whatever that
may be.
May God, in His mercy, send speedy
end to the governing Turk and all his
loings-as L said when i could say and
even sometimes do, so say in my polit-
ical decrepitude or death.
Yours sincerely VIM. E. Gladstone.
