Accented the Call

Word was received Saturday from Rev.
Frank S. Lyon, pastor of the Cedar Ave-
nue. Baptist church, Cleveland o., that
he accepted the unanimous call extend
ed by the First Baptist church of this
city last Thursday evening. He will en-
ter upon his duties here August LIST.
Mr.. Lyon has been pastor of the Cleve-
land church for the past nine years and
his work there as well as his work in 9TH
er pastorates show him to be an earnest
christian gentleman, forceful preacher
and successful pastor. He is man of
about fifty years of age, of mature judg-
ment and wide experience. He has a
wife and four children-two SONS and two
daughters. The older son, practicing
physician, is married. The other three
children will accompany their parents to
Owosso. The older daughter is an &C
complished soprano singer. Mrs. Lyon
is an active worker and great help to
her husband.
We feel as though not only the Baptist
church is to be congratulated upon secur-
ing Mr.. Lyon but the city at large is also
to be congratulated. Owosso has never
had more excellent pastors than at the
present time, and in Mr.. Lyon we are
confident the present high standard both
Enthusiastically and socially will be main
tanned.

Garlic Eaters in the United States.

"There are between 250000 and 300-
600 pounds of garlic annually con-
sumed by Italian, French and other
foreign residents of the United States" b"
said a wholesale dealer in the vegeta-
bic in New York City recently. "About
three-quarters of the garlic eaten in
the country is imported from Italy and
the rest is raised on farms in Connecti-
cut, in Louisiana, in Texas and in
New Mexico. All garlic, both import
ed and American, is put up in strings
or punches. The vegetable is put up
in that form because it keeps better
and can be easier handled The work
is done entirely by hand, and an eX-
pert buncher can put up from 400 to
500 punches day.
Carrie comes in hampers containing
about 10 pounds. 1t is sold by the
pound or by the bulb, which is worth
one cent. In its commercial form dry
garlic does not yield the strong smell
for which it is famous. When stacked
up in large quantities or packed in a
hamper, there is no noticeable odOr
from the vegetable. But If one Of the
several bulbs Of which each set is COM
posed, and which are called cloves Of
garlic are broken off and cut in two
the powerful and characteristic odor
at once becomes perceptible. Wash

"When l went abroad this spring" ="
said the young man who was being
dined because he had just come home
from the Exposition, 81 was so i'll that
my mother said l could not go without
our doctor.
"On the way across, somehow, all
my illness get blown overheard and
1 felt as if l had left myself in New
York City and was a new man I'd
have to get acquainted with. But all
the time there was the doctor in our
party. He was having good time
and taking his own medicines; every
once in awhile he would take a pill
from one walstcoat pocket and take
it, then after a meal he would draw
q powder from another pocket and
wash that down.
"The day we reached Amsterdam,
however, like a fash 1 found my old
self 1 had left in New York City,
felt i'll and couldn't breathe, l went
to the doctor in haste.

lust as expected and England learned
of the true identity Of her future
Queen and saw with pleasure that II
was to be an English maiden who was
to be raised to that honor.
The queen herself has, in her book
"I.eayes From the Journal Of Life
in the Highlands" told the story Of
the engagement of the Princess Louise
to the Marquis Of Lorne, now Duke Of
Argyle She says under date Of 0c-
tober 3, 1870:
"This was an eventful day Our
Louise was engaged to Lord Lorne.
The event took place during a walk
from the Glassalt Shiel Ely to Loeb
Dhu. She had gone there with jamie
Ely, the Lord Chancellor and Lorne.
1 had driven to Pannanich Wells on
the south side of the Dee with Beat
rice and Mrs. Ponsonby.
1--WE got home by seven. Louise,
who returned some time later, told me
that Lorne had spoken Of his devotion
to her and proposed to her and that
she had accepted him, knowing that 1
should approve. Though 1 was not
unprepared for this result, L felt pain
fully the thought Of losing her. But 1
gave my consent and could only pray
that she would be happy"
The Czar proposed to the Princess
Alix of Hesse during a family party
at Copenhagen in 1894. Heh had made up
his mind long before that If he mar
ried he would marry whom he pleased
rather than one commended to him
by his counsellors for State reasons
And his choice had fallen upon the
Queens granddaughter from Hesse.
Accordingly the party at the Rosen-
berg Palace, the scene of that former
proposal in 1893, had been arranged
on purpose to allow Nicholas to meet
his lady love under the happiest auspi-
ces. Some say that the Gar proposed
during an evening party, others that
he did so in the gardens around the
palace while out for a walk with the
Princess. Probably the latter story Is
the more nearly correct. In any case
the scene of the betothal Of the Prince
of Wales so many years previously to
the Princess Alexandria must have
been almost colncident with the scene
of the engagement of the Car and the
present Czarna.

1t was in the chill Of an early morn

cuddled to the warmth Of grating in
he shelter of tall Park Row building.
1t had been a hard, hot day, and the
little urchins tossed and wrlthed in
the comfort Of cosey daybreak sleep.
Out Of the dark empty corridor of the
building came the policeman Of the
post. 1t was close ON to the end Of
the late tour and he was to be relieved.
He yawned as he showed down his
helmet into place and gave a lingering
brush to his dusty coat tail. Then he
looked sleepily at his shoulder to brush
away the last vestlge of his nap. But
his eye strayed beyond this and his
hand stayed. He saw the pile OF boys.
His face frightened up, he drew out
his night stick and made for the sleep
ers.
"Git out o. that. Ctr
He laid the stick in among them,
and they rose like birds and flew in all
directions. They made faces and they
shouted back threats, but then day
