A. r. Julian was a preacher at Chad
rcn, Neb., three years ago. In the es-
timation of his flock he was doing
good work, but was unable to reach
his own ideal of what pastor should
bo. Therefore he bought newspaper,
which he ran in vigorous, clean style
for over two years. And now, feeling
confident that his editorial experience
has left him better fitted for pulpit
eering, he has sold his paper and will
re-enter the ministry.

There may be much scientific ano
literary sympathy between nations
which are politically uncongenial
There is a current medical proverb
in Europe that when a thing is veri-
fed on the banks of the Spree, as
we'll as on the banks of the Seine,
that is, when Berlin and Paris agree,
there must be something in it. So
much has been added to our knowl-
edge Of the physical history of the
race by study and experiments in
France and Germany, that the proverb
is worthy to be remembered when the
political relations of the two coun-
tries are in question. Moreover, it is
net best for the world to emphasize
the fraternizings rather than the
arrangements Of the nations?
