waken up and do our part the meet

there and expect the leader to carry
on the meeting by himself. Do you
think that he can testify for you OF
Christ? In one sense of the word he
may but his testifying for you will
never take you to heaven. Christ
wants each one of us to stand up for
him, and unless we do we shall not
see the Kingdom of heaven. Christ
says. whatsoever shall confess me
before men him will l also confess
before my Father which is in heaven,

surely do when we do not testify OF
Christ's love toward us) him will
also deny before my Father which is

Your local doctor may be good old man,
but you shudder when he suggests local
treatment for the weakness and diseases pc.
culiar to women These things are gener-
ally unnecessary, but the doctor doesn't
know it. He is perfectly honest, but he is
behind the times. He does the best he can,
no doubt, but his best is not good enough.
He is not specialist He is general pTac-
titioner, worried and bothered and hurried
in giving attention to thousand and one
different ailments. Many busy physicians
do not take the time to find out what is
really the matter with their patients Many

a disease she did not have, because fire.

How TO MAKE MONEY BY FNTER-

90 at it in a business like way.
Theatrical managers study the wants
of the people and then supply them.
The same methods can be used by a
C. E. society. II a society has the
reputation of giving good entertain
ments it can always count upon hav-
ing a good crowd. A good concert
company at least once year is pay
ing investment even fit is expensive.
The profit OH the entertainment may
be small, but everyone will know
what may be expected and will pat
ronize the home talent socials which
may be given afterwards. When a
home talent entertainment is given,
prepare a good program, and take
plenty of time to have everything
perfect. Don't expect people to come
because they ought to, but have them
come because they want TO. Have
plenty of variety. A birthday social
is excellent once in long while. A
doll fair for the juniors will pay any
time. Don't attempt anything too
big. A few recitatiOns and songs
we'll done are better than a cantata
poorly acttd.
Graduate your prices to suit the
character of the entertainment. Don't
charge too much for q cheap social,
and don't be afraid to charge good
price for something that is really
worth going to. Get good manager
and keep him and advertise.

HORTICULTURAL HINTS.

Get ready for Spring! Do not de-
lay minute!! Be ready!!!
All trees, shrubs, vines and hardy
plants should if possible be trans
planted before the buds start. Goose
berries, raspberries, currants rhu-
barb, asparagus, peODias and much of
the ornamental shrubbery, starts
very early. Strawberries do best in
Kansas if put in when Overcoats and
mittens are still necessary.
Erratic branches and those that
have become broken during the win
ter should be cut smO Dthly off, and
the wound-iflarge-will be benefited
if washed over with thin grating
wax, or most any mixture that will
close the pores aud keep the sap from
leaking.
ROot-grafts should have been finish
ed and tOp-grafting is now in order,
beginning with the plums and cher
ries as they begin first.
Cuttings of currants, gOOseberries,
grapes and pie-plant root must 60 in
early tn do we'll.
Raspberries and black berries should
go in early; the grapes may be put in
later. Hardy vegetable plants and
seeds may go in just as soon as the
ground can be worked.
Seeds of tomato. egg plant, pepper
and other tender plants in boxes,
cOld-frames or hoJ-beds must be
watched; remember the mice love
them; a trap, or strychHine mixed
with some dry cOrn-meal is good
medicine" :or them.
If the rabbits have taken an in
terest in your orchard and i'll their
way have tried to make it more
picturesque, remember "a stitch in
Time" and bank up with clay or any
kind of earth, or other moist sub
stance that will keep off the wind and
sun; and in many cases this will save
the tree and new bark will form.
If tree is entirely girdled, cut
some smooth gwigs or shoots from the
same tree and sharpen the ends wedg-
ing and smooth; then take carpen-
ter's chisel and drive it into the tree
in a downward direction below the
girdled place, and III ali upward d.
rection on the same line above the
girdled place, and insert the ends of
the prepa ed shoots into these cuts.
The twig should be of such length
as will reach across the girdled place.
Insert by putting it in above first,
then bending the twig place the lower
end in and by Strengthening the twig
the ends are forced into place and
will stay. Put several to a tree, es-
pecially if the tree is large one. Ii
the wounds at the connecting points
are smeared with grating wax, they
will unite more readily. If possible
it will pay to bank up so as to cover
the entire wound with earth. The
above is much less trouble than
would at first appear, and will save
trees if applied early.
Get the orchard out early and dc
! the work well.

Dear Endeavor Editors: Our sOci-
ETY. was organized in November 1893
with a membership of l3 individuals
all active We now have a member
ship of A of which 80 are active. We
hold our meetings every two weeks
and they consist of Bible readings,
essays, recitatiOns and select readings.
The different alliances on our pas
tors charge have formed into cOnven-
tions aud meet semi-annually at
Humboldt. Our conventions have
proved great success as they help
us to exchange views and plan of
work, aud also inspires Us TO do more
for our Master. 1t helps US to realize
that all of the EndeavOr workers are
doing all they can for this good cause.
We have adopted the two c9uts per
week plan which has proved great
success. Ia 1896 we sent our money
which was $50 to the japanese Con-
ference Treasury To be used in mis-
sionary work among the heather.
This year we have resolved to send
our means to the suffering people of
India On March % we had tenn
perance meeting aud it was very in
terestiug and we hope the good seed
that WAS sown will bring us joyful
harvest. We ask the prayers of all
other societies that we may prove
successful. JuO. J. Funk, Pres.
A thought which was suggested in
the Carlyle Christian EndeavOr meet
ing last evening If put into practice
might he help TO &. EndeavOrs gen.
orally. In our meetings there are
always few, aud sometimes. many,
verses rea on the given subject every
week. Our leader called for repeat
ing of such verses. Now what would
be the advantage il one verse on each
subject curing the year was commit

At the emd of the year we would
have at our command fifty-twO verses

The committing of Bible verses and
hymns aud repeating them in class
constituted the principal exercise of
Sabbath School in the past genera

has been the advantage of our Inter

this method, the generation past was
much better posted in the knowledge
and doctrines OF the Bible than the
present.
The complaint among mauy 5. :.

can be answered by the G. + effort

A NATURAL OATAPULT.
A wildcat Dashed to It's Death In m Odd
Manner In a Pennsylvania Forest.

A wildcat was killed in sn odd manner
near Little Flat Settlement Pa. last week.
The cat was not a very large one. being
yearling, and was inexperienced, or IL
would be alive today probably.
Baxter Johns, who lives on Gallo brook,
chopped big hemlock tree down in the
mountain behind his shanty, and the tree
in falling took with it small second
growth birch six inches through at the
butt. The birch was bent down In curve
and was held by Its top. Sumo time that
night rabbit went under the he,nlock 10
browse and tho wildcat winded IL and be-
gan to stalk afUug In tho hope of getting
close enough for spring, which 1t did
after crawling along with It's bsily In the
snow for a dozen rods
When it leaped, IL made mistake by
plunging down through the birch top. The
plunge loosened the branches as IL they
had been hair triggers Of a gun, and the
tree flew up, taking the wildcat with 10.
The cat was thrown against spruce tree
three rods away and had its whole side
nmashed In and then fell TO the ground
and after a few struggles died, and 1t was
found on the following day by Johns.
The rabbit jumped l2 feet down the
mountain the arst time, and as far several
times after, then sliding three feet over an
icy place, and did not stop In the half mile
that the woodman followed It. That fact
makes Johns think the rabbit was scared
by the occurrence.
