1t is good for man to get be-
You'd the horizon of his own neigh
borhood, and to learn as the
Germans Say-that there are folk
on the far side Of the hills. The
Jewish law provided for this by
requiring the people to 90 on pill
grlmage, once year at least, to
Jerusalem. There they met fresh
faces, realized their partnership
In the life Of nation, and got be-
You'd the circle of parochial ideas.
In modern religious and social
methods we have nothing that
works SO effectively as this. Pa
rOchiallsm still afIlictS some
classes and some countries In spite
Of all the devices we have to
thwart It's influence. But it is
we'll for man at times to break
the bounds Of his horizon, and get
among the strange folk who are
his brethren, though they do not
see with his eyes and hear with
his ears. The great state and
national gatherings, whether &c
clesiastical or civil, have their
educational use. They help a man
to feel himself a member of some
thing bigger than ne'ghbor-
hood.-Sunday School Times.

tain death certificate from Cloud Chief
physicians. but was arrested, thrown
into Jail and heavily ironed, after which
his brother and sister-ln-law confessed
the facts above stated. When he saw
he was betrayed ne made an unblushing
confession Of guilt. Had 1t not been for
the vigilance OF Sheriff Morrison and the
bravery Of his deputies he would have
been lynched by "a Infatuated mob.
Soon after this Kirk undertook to play
the crazy act, but was informed by
friends that such foolishness must be
stopped; otherwise he would be taken
fromthe Jail by a mob and strung up to
a limb. which had the effect of restoring
his mind. He was quite sane for two
weeks but kept, with ball and chain at
tached to his foot, in jail. with night
watch on the outside until 9 o'clock p
m, July %, when he made his escape,
taking with him one of the best Win
