With the exception of the noted
Worlds Fair number of The Cos
mopolitan, which reached price
of five dollars copy after the last
edition had been exhausted, no
stronger number CT this magazine
has ever been issued than that tor
July 1897. The report of Julian
Hawthorne, the special Commits
sioner sent by the Cosmopolitan to
India to investigate the horrors of
the pleague and famine, is of an
extraordinary character, eand will
open the eyes of the world to con-
ditlons which were scarcely sus-
pected. The same number con-
tains what is probably the greatest

century, besides number of other ar
tieles of absorbing interest. The price
of this great magazine is only ten
cents, or 81 ay ear.

If a man can be religious only by

be religious only by being a Ro-
man Catholic, then let him be a

thodox and not be a Christian. A
man may believe everything neces-
sary to sound faith and yet be a

SNEERING AT THE LOCAL PAPER.
In every community there are
those who are disposed TO sneer at
and discount the local home paper,
and never give it a word of praise
or encouragement. The following
from the Lake Charles Press is
timely in this particular: "Whens
ever you hear a man sneering at
the local paper, saying there is
nothing IN it, that it is not as big,
cheap or newsy as the city papers,
you cali safely wager that he does
not squander his wealth in helping
to make it better, and most likely
owes a years subscription, Gen
orally that same paper has done
ten times as much for such Il man
as he has ever done Tor the paper. "
Of course We have no such people
In this locality, but there are some
places where just this thing is done,
and the sneerers are either borrow
ere of the paper or they are delin-
quept in their subscriptions
