Piety and Prosperity

Money is a convenient measure
for almost every sort of cndeavor,
and to want more money where
with to discharge our obligations
and to help the needy and pro-
mote good works, as well as to
Increase our personal comfort,
comes very near being pious de-
sire. Thrift and honesty come
near, in the eyes of contemporary
thinkers, to goodness. We have
certainly made a great gain in
thrift, and there is no reason to
think that, as people, we have
refrigerated in honesty. We Of
this genera ton, when we get into
a scrape, are not SO much dispos-
ed to insist that it was Gods will
as to reason together and try to
find out what stupid thing we
have done, or what wise thing we
have neglected, that has resulted
SO disastrously. This we do, not
necessarily because we are less
religious than our forbears, but
perhaps because we are somewhat
more reasonable than they. It
does not seem certain that this
increased sense of our own re-
sponsibility is development that
is to be regretted.
However, if any of our friends
who are solicitous for our welfare
have been disappointed in some of
the effects, or lack of effect, of ad-
versity upon us, let us hope that
they will be disappointed again,
and more agreeably, in the spir-
itual results of any prosperity
that may be vouchsafed to U.S.

Mr.. James Jones, of the drug
firm of Jones & Son, Cowden, ILL.,,
in speaking of Dr. Kings New

his wife was attacked with La

rious that physicians at Cowden
and Pana could do nothing for
her. It seemed to develop into
Hasty Consumption. Having
DR.. Kings New Discovery IN
store, and selling lots of it, he
took a bottle home, and to the
surprise of all she began to get
better from first dose, and half
dozen dollar bottles cured her
sound and well. DR.. Kings New

stole a bicycle, the property Of Mr.. G. NJ.

one night several weeks ago, was Satur-
day arrested in Littlcton and hast night
brought back here for trial. He left this
city Immediately after the theft and went
to Littleton, but it is only recently that
the authorities there have succeeded In
locating and arresting him.
The mayor yesterday morning sent a.
young white farmer, Tom Jones, who
lives near Cary, to the roads for 80 days.
His offense was being drunk and disorder
ly. Tom is an old offender. He seldom
ever comes to the city without getting on
big drunk. He now has many unpaid
fines ON the city books against him, and
the mayor has lost all patience with him
He was warned by the authorities Satur
day night, but 1T seems to have done no
good.
