Last Tuesday evening about dark
we noticed smoke coming from the
Hue of the NJ. E. church at Grants
vile, Md. We wondered what was
going to be done, as we knew of no
service for that evening We were
about to investigate when two ladies
appeared at the parsonage door and
invited us to come to the church at
the ringing of the bell We became
a little suspicious but accepted the
invitation. In the meantime we could
see men, women and children going
in the church. By the time we could
make little change in our attire the
bell rang and we were on the scene.
When we entered the church we
were awe struck. The rostrum and
pulpit were covered with dishes,
canned fruit, groceries, dress goods,
etc. A long table was arranged in
one side of the church with cakes on
it. About seventy-five people young
and old had gathered. We think
nearly every family in and near
Grantsvile was represented. There
was no discrimination of creed or
party. We were soon informed that
the goods were for the preacher and
family. A little later luncheon was
served consisting of cake and coffee.
After a few remarks by the pastor
the people repaired to their homes
at late hour, feeling they had spent
pleasant evening and leaving the
pastor and family happy.
The donation amounted to about
$35.
We desire to express our deepest
and sincerest appreciation for such
manifestations of love and esteem.
We pray that Gods richest bless
ings may be showered upon all who
have SO kindly remembered us.
Yours in christian love,
E. p. IDLEMAN AND WIFE.

Information From Advertisements.

The successful advertiser has an
advantage in the fact that in adver
tising he is free from the entangle-
ments of the bonds of custom. He is
at liberty to invent new methods; he
need not confine his announcements
to one set series of ideas. He may
change the text of his advertisements
constantly, and employ all the me-
diums of publicity at his command.
With this freedom of action the clever
tradesman by using the pages of a
widely read newspaper awakens
interest, and if intelligently put to-
gether his announcements exert an
influence upon every home into which
the paper enters.
The Republican., 1899-04-13
A Good Example.

In sentencing wife beaters Martin
and McMinn to the whipping post
Judge Edward Stake took stand
that will result in much good. His
example will be one for others to fol
low and the cowardly wife beaters in
this State will now think twice before
letting fly their clenched fist or cruel
bludgeon at the head of some weak
defenseless woman. There is no sym
pathy in the breasts of men for a
bully who will stoop to strike a
woman, especially when he is the
woman's natural protector, and Judge
Stake has probably never passed q
sentence more just or one that tends
to effect so much good.-HagerstowI

Present-Day Thoughts.

10 self-doubters:-Much good re-
mains unperformed in this world
whether it gets done in the next who
can tell because of self-doubtings.
Good people principally good women,
because of lack of confidence make
no attempt to utter the message that
stirs within them; for fear forsooth
that the utterance will be imperfect
and their own delivery of it feeble.
Of course it will be. No great
thought without either preliminary
essayings and later polishings, ever
sprang full-armed for conquest from
the head of any one. The effect of
waiting until perfect work can be
done by as wheshrink from publicity
for fear of imperfections or misjudg-
ment, is that what we might do we
shall still feel disinclined to do: for
each year will see us with higher
standards of perfection in our own
work and therefore with just as much
reason as ever for refraining from do
ing what we might do.
met a few years back a middle
aged PHI. ID. whose soul was swallow
ed up with purpose to help his day.
For years he had gone seeking more
and mora Darfaction of outfit +mo
years there, four years here, etc, be-
cause he felt that such and such place
would furnish him exactly what he
needed of knowledge. But the fur
ther he went the more the vista of
things unattained opened before him,
until, when | met him, he was very
unhappy at the idea of never being
quite ready to strike out and do some
thing. His intellect was frying in the
fat of its own richness, and he was quite
unaware Of what allied him Misery
was over his countenance and deep
rooted within him. What was the
proper advice? Do something, say
something, work somewhere, even if
you are not quite ready. Three weeks
ago met him again. He was working
in the humblest sort of way in one of
the College settlements that now be-
gin to dot the great cities OF the land.
He was living out his message-hav-
ing very poor voice with a peculiar
ity to it that would amuse the unsym-
pathetic-and bending his great intel
lect down to the needs of the poor and
oppressed, The wider scope will come,
as sure as the first wavering flight of

Better a failure than no attempt at
all; better any form of belief than no
belief at all; better humiliation and
confusion of face at an intellectual
tumble than no first step; weak
ness that does its best than strength
that selfishly shuts itself away for u
more convenient season. There must
rise to the open ear of all of us at
times, the moan, the groan, the
