Hillsdale Standardard: During his speech
at the Alger Club banquet in Detroit last
Thursday night, Grant Fellows, of Hudson,
made this statement: "When you go home
tonight look at the clock on the mantle and
remember that during Harrison's administra-
ton the national debt was being paid off at
the rate of $l2S every minute that the clock
licked, and also that under Cleveland's ad-
ministration every minute licked off by the
same clock the national debt is increasing
at the rate of $780," Now this seems to be
a rather broad insinuation, but figures will
prove 1t is so. The national debt was paid
during Harrison's administration to the
amount of $500, 1O7, 200 and has been in
creased, or will be at the present rate, dur
ing Cleveland's reign $34S, 1904, 900. Will

Two Eloquent Addresses.

Prof. Richard G. Moulton, the far
famed and eloquent University Exten-
sion lecturer has been in Owosso. He
spoke last Sunday in the morning to a
crowded house in the Congregational
church and in the evening to the COM
bined audiences of the Baptist and Con-
gregational churches which filed the
auditorium and lecture room.
The Prof spoke in the morning on the
literary study of the Bible. He said that
there were all kinds of literature and of
the highest order in the Bible and that
the literary student got beauties from the
Book which neither the critic nor the
devotiOnalist could find. He illustrated
his method by the use of the oath Psalm
which he said contained two lyrical an
thems used by David on the day of the
investure of Jerusalem. One of the
Psalms was chanted as the procession
reached the brow of the hill, and the
other anthem as they stood before the
gates of the city to give the watchword,
"The Lord of Host" and to be admitted
to take possession of the capitol. He ad-
vised very strongly the more general use
of the revised version. 1t is more accur-
ate in translation, divides the matter in
to paragraphs according to the sense, like
any other book and incites the mind to
the desire to read whole books at once,
and thus to appropriate the literary beau
ty. The division of the old version into
chapters and verses has greatly hindered
the popular appreciation of the book.
1t is almost impossible to report the
interpretative recital of Job which was
given in the evening. The hearers were
caught up and carried along on the rapid
flood of eoquence. He forgot even to
ask whether the speaker regarded Job to
be fact or fiction, biography or a didatic
and dramatic poem. But the great prob
lem of human suffering stood out for So
luton. Job refuses to accept the hard
doctrine of his friends that he must have
sinned and therefore he suffers and Sc
cures the commentator of God in the
end and the greater prosperity, because
he honored God by boldly contending
with the Almighty rather than to accept
the false explanation of the friends.
Professor Moulton speaks with rapidity
and dramatic power. Sometimes in the
rapid rush of words there may have been
some indistnctness He shows himself
to be a careful and appreciative student
of the Bible. And the University Exten-
sion organization through its president,
Stanley E. Parkill, did well to get him
here. For whether his lectures next
year be on the Bible, Shakespeare's
plays or other literature, they are sure to
enlist the widest interest and support in
the community. The Bible under his
treatment would become a new book to
all who would hear him.

made series of speeches. At Erie
Northeast station he prefaced his address
by saying that year previously he had
received from young girl in that place
letter asking him to let his whiskers
grow.
'And if that young lady is present, "
added the president, II would like to
ask her if she will come up and tell me
what she thinks of the result, for have
followed her advice.
Amid the cheers of the audience a

If we could trace dyspepsia to its source,
it would lead to our kitchens. In fact, the
secret of good health is good cooking. If
well cooked, foods are partly digested; If
poorly cooked they are less digestible than
in their raw state. If you are victim of
faulty cooking; that is, If you suffer from
dyspepsia, the rational food must he looked
for in an arti6cially digested food, and a
food which will at the same time aid the di-
gestiOn of other foods. Such preparation
virtually rests the digestive organs, thereby
restoring them to their natural strength.
The Digestive Cordial, as prepared by
