A western editor is said to have hit
upon a plan to keep subscriptions paid
up that takes the cake Every time a
delinquent subscriber is mentioned in
his paper his name is inverted. For
example: ''sABQ ppoQ and wife are
spending a few days in Denver" Every
other subscriber understands what it
means and there is a grand rush to get
light sida upagain. We hope we will not
be compelled to do tins with our lis as
it would make h bad looking paper.

Rev Hardness preached a very strong
| and impressive sermon and Rev. Hub
bard offered up an earnest beaItif nj
prayer After the regular service an
experience meeting was held opened by
Rev. Hubbard with fitting aud appro-
pirate remarks. The church was
crowded to its full capacity. That
these meetings have accomplished much
good in the community is vOuchsafe by
the large attendance and by the mum
Der who have put on the mantle OF
christianity. How could it be other
wise with two such earnest, honest,
workers for the cause OF christianity
and Enlightenment OF the condition OF
of their felIowmen as the Rev. gentle
men, Hardness and Hubbard, working
as they do in perfect harmony aud
unison-truly christian gentlemen. Web
ster is exceedingly fortunate in having
