Venus Is central on the 23rd and

north, and more or less severe
southwark. The 14th and 18th will
bring renewed storm activity. The
10Th to I'D will be at the center of
the winter solstice, with regular
storm period greatly intensified by
Venus and Mercury. There will be
terrific winter storms, or phenome-
nal freaks of temperature and
earthquake. The 10Th to about the
3Oth will really be the crisis of all
the causes that bring extra pressure

TRY 1T AND SEE.

Whatever may be said about the
publications of Rev. 1rl X. Hicks by
those who do not fully understand
the facts. there is no denying the
truth that his paper and almanac
have come to stay. His sple dill
journal, Word and Works, is now
entering its tenth year, largely in
creased in circulation and in every
way improved, until II deserves the
national reputation II has attained.
His 1897 almanac is now ready and
is by far the finest and most beauti-
full he has yet issued. 1t contains
106 pages, including cover artistic
ally printed in colors, and is filled
from back TO back with just what is
wanted in every shop, Office and
home in America. One feature of
the almanac for 1907 is series of II
original, beautifully engraved star
maps, with explanatory chapters,
which could not be bought for less
than S. in any work on astronomy.
AS Mr.. Hicks has so correctly aud
faithfully warned the public of
coming droughts, floods, cold
waves, billiards., tornadoes and cy-
clones, in the years passed, aside
from the other varied and splendid
features of his paper and almanac,
these considerations alone should
prompt every family to subscribe
at once for 1897. The almanac costs
only % cents copy. Word and
Works is 81 year, and a copy of
the fine almanac goes as premium
with every yearly subscription.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 5.
LET UP ON KANSAS.

Two great and virtuous Journals
published in the highly moral
cities of New York and Chicago
continue to assault the state of
Kansas, because that common
wealth preferred at the last election
the populism of Lewelling, Leedy
and Doster to the Republicanism
of Cy Leland and the editor of the
Emporia Gazette.
In answer to The Suns sneer at
"the bad eminence of Kansas" it
might be said that Kansas pro-
vides school buildings for her
children, which is more than the
city of New York is doing. About
$1,000 boys and girls of school age
were turned away from the school
doors last September in our great
metropolis because there was no
accommodation for them. Now,
while we regret that the Populists
have carried Kansas, II is only lair
to say that Kansas provides well
tor the education OF her youth.
Out in Chicago, that model COM
munity by the lake, The Times
Herald also has fling at Kansas,
saying that "she stands condemned
at the bar of public opinion as no
state has ever been since the Union
was formed" And all because she
elected the Populist ticket. II
might, in simple fairness. be well
10 remind Chicago that, Populist
though she be, Kansas is years be-
hind Chicago in breeding n class
of thinkers who threw dynamite
bombs at the police.
Other POINTS in comparison be-
tween Kansas and our two imperial
cities would be interesting. For
example. there is four times as
much churchgoing in Kansas, in
proportion TO the population. as
there is in New York or Chicago;
four times us much sobricty. aud
four times as mich moral clcanli-
ness. II more than half of the
people of Kansas want cheaper
money. they have not yet developed
who become million
aires by railroad wrecking and
breaking the laws. II Kansas has
her PETERS, New York has her Jay
Gould. Any observer with half an
eye can see all these things.
So let up on Kansas. She will
worry along with AZ little infrac-
ton of the ten commandments as
New York and Chicago.-Spring-
field (>lass) Republican.
