mentS.
fllentS.

The pastor, officers and members o
the Presbyterian church OF this city WIS.,
to say to friends in sister churches, and
all Others, that after so long a time with
out pastor, they wish to thank Godfor
His goodness and care over them.
His providence over us is manifested in
the facts: that we are entirely free from
all indebtedness; the church and parson
age are in good repair and free from any
claim; the pastors salary is provided Tor
and regularly paid each month.
On the first of last June, we were per
mitted to install our pastor, and now
have regular services every Sabbath
morning and evening. .,
Owing to a defect in the tower our bell
does not ring, calling us to these services,
but we hope soon to remedy these so 1t
will again call us to the house of God,
on His holy day.
Our people are in harmony with our
pastor and his work, and are praying Tor
an outpouring of HIS Spirit upon our
city.
To the members of the sister churches
who may for the time being, be without
q pastor, we wish to say: we now recall
with pleasure the cordial welcome and
many pleasant hours we have spent IN
your church homes when we were III IKE
condition Now we make you equally
welcome to all our services when your
steps meet with us
We are fullyin harmony with the spirit
of unity now so evident among the past
ors of our city, and will earnestly strive
to second their efforts to save souls and
build up the Masters kingdom in our
midst.
To all who are not members OF any
church we extend an earnest and hearty
invitation to every service. We will
give you a cordial welcome.
Our endeavor is not to make religion
obnoxious, but attractive to all.
In the soul inspiring words OF our
Master, we say, Come unto Me, all We
that labor and are heavy laden, and
will give you rest"

the children safe?" When the ele-
ments are melting with fervent heat
and God shall burn the world up and
the cry of Fire, fret" shall resound
amid the mountains and the valleys,
will your children be safe?

chord in the heart of any man who had

by the Duke of Portland, and patron
lied by many of the best-known horse
lovers in the United Kingdom Pri-

recuperation for their overworked AMI
underfed beasts of burden, but it also
affords permanent asylum for old ia

apples and carrots, and slices of white

handfuls of loaf sugar. Nothing could
have been more to the taste of the

with which they plunged their noses

Most stage Folk Don't Want Theil
Offspring to Initiate Them.
1t is interesting to observe that few
of the noted people of the stage have
children or relatives on the boards
with their permission. Mrs. Kenda
comes of family of actors, but she
says firmly no daughter of hers shall
ever be an actress with her consent
because the work is too hard and the
struggle too great James A. Herne
has four daughters, and two of them
last season were seen with their father
on the stage, but the situation was diff
ferent, inasmuch as they were in his
company. Sarah Bernhard put her
son on the stage, but in regard to her
little granddaughter she has other
ideas. 1t is her wish that the girl
should marry some good man and set
tie u0Wn iuto domestic life, which she
says is great enough career for any
one. Eleanora Duse's daughter has
never seen her mother act, and that
mother intends she never shall. She
wants her daughter to be a. cultured,
thinking woman, but to keep off the
stage. Lillian Russell's daughter is
about 16 now, and is at school. She
has talent, it is said, but her mother
does not want her to adopt a stage
career. May Irwin is proud of her two
Logs, but she has no stage ambitions
for them. They are destined for the
army and for business Annie Russell
opposed stage career for her brother
Tom Of Fauntleroy fame, and Margaret
Anglin refuses to allow her younger
sister to accept several offers made her
