THEIR 'sVASTY DEEPS.*

The Presbyterian regards it as an
instance of mental vacuity when -theo-
logians and other people discuss the
sex of the angels. It is enough to-
know that they are ministering spirits
without entering into the question Of
wings, feathers, crests, etc. The popu-
lar notion of angels has come from the
conceptions of the old painters who
drew entirely on their fancy, and de-
picted no feminine cherubim or sera-
phim, taking it for granted that these
higher intelligences should belong
wholly to the stronger SEX. In giving
them bodily form at all, they merely
drew from the vastly deeps Of their own
poetic Observation-Disclosures I1sib-

A GOOD REASON TOO.

There is one potent reaso this year
why prices should range higher than
they did last year and that is that
there is ample cash to move all crops
and that, too, at a low rate of interest.
Last year owing to the contest over
the money question there was great
difficulty in securing cash to handle
crops, and millers paid big interest for
money until after election. This year
rates are low and there is no trouble
to secure necessary cash. There is
the most complete confidence in the
money market and prices will not be
kept down because there is no money
with which to buy.-Fergus FaMs Jour-
7eOL. ns

TIMES HAVE CHANGED.

We know a farmer in this county
who last fall had the mortgage on his
two farms foreclosed because he could
not meet the interest. It was in the
heat of the campaign, when many peo-
pie were being misled by the free sill
e arguments, and men with money
had lost faith in all investments, and
although he offered a high rate of in
terest, he could get no money to pay
off his debts. This week, however.
just before his time for redemption ex-
pired, he borrowed enough money to
clear both farms at 6 and 7 per cent,
with no bonus for commission. The
farmer has just marketed two or three
car loads of wheat in Duluth for 81 per
bushel, and is now feeling quite we'll,
thank you. He is now convinced that
the agitation of the financial question
last fall cost the farmers of the North
west many thousands of dollars.-W VA
