A WINDOW IN HEAVEN.

Heaven seems like a strange coun-
try, and death like a strange voyage,
only to those who live far away in
thought and desire from both. It is
only bee ause we adopt earth as our
home and renounce end forget our
birthplace, heaven, that the thought
Of going back to our Fathers house
seems unwelcome. There ought to be
in every human breast a lifelong

TOR that is what life is, a school), and
longing for the day when our education
shall be completed, and we shall re-
turn by the familiar road, and geze
once more upon the welcoming lights
of home.
Let this be n of our constant
thoughts and resolves, to live nearer in
spirit and desire TO heaven, to seek out
something n g snail be a window for
Us into that loving, b~rooding sky OF
our FA5her's. Some OF US do not need

There are so many associations that
draw our hearts and our thoughts
Ehither. Oar ones perhaps have gone
before Us, and are looking back ward
coward US as we look forward toward
them. The window of heaven is full
of wIstful faces and beckoning hanos
for some of US. Will it seem q strange
journey or a far country when we go

longer we live the more there is TO
draw US heavenward. The nearer we
approach to llte's port OF departure,
The more beautiful grows THAT i'm

The way to rob death of every possible
sting, is to live 80 neal in spirit and in
truth to God and G DDS home that the
summons to come back to him and to
our loved ones will seem like a kings

Congressional District of the State of Mime
sofa will be held in the Union Hall, In the City

pose of electing two delegates and two alter
mates to the Republican National convention
to be held at the city of Philadelphia, in the

All voters who are in sympathy with the prln-

who desire its success regardless of other past
political affiliations are invited to participate
in the selection to delegates to this convention:
At a meeting of the Republican Congressional
committee at the city of Mankato. Minnesota,

the size of its deposits. though the United
Kingdom. Prussia and France each have a
larger number of depositors.

While some of the followers of fusion
are telling that prosperity has not dawned
upon the farmer in spite of rs cent butter
and five dollar pork, simply because wheat
does not bring one dollar bushel, because
the supply is greater than the demand for
it, the American Agriculturist has prepared
a statistical review of farm conditions in this
country, which show some very gratifying
features. 1t shows that the total value of
farm products of the United States last
year were$1, GOO. ooo, 900, being greater than
during the years of 1894, 1895 or 1896. On
the single item of live stock the increase
over the value of 1896 footed up to the
amount of 500. 900. 900, or gain of 38
per cent The percentage of gain in all
agricultural products over the total during
the three years mentioned was 81 per cent
This tells its own story, and wholly re-
flutes the doleful cry of the Demo-Pop.
The farmer is enjoying the fruits of pros
perity along with the rest of the world.

INCLUDE THEM BOTH.

Lake Crystal, Mimi, April 10.
Editor Free Press: saw an editorial
in last Saturdays Bulletin entitled
run Them H." in which the leading
idea seemed to be, kill the girls to save
the boys. No one with any regard for
humanity or morality but would desire
to Danish bawdy houses, but the ques-
ton is, how to do it. Can it be done by
fine and Imprisonment? Has that course
ever succeeded? Are the women who
solicit-'Those specimens of humanity
who have fallen to the lowest depths of
degradation" worse than the boys
who at night "gather on the street cor
ners, talking loud and boisterously,
while waiting for the promenaders?
This reminds one of Jack Frosts WOO
ing. He said
Flower wilt thou?
And the Hover wilted."
Now, why this double standard of
morals? 1t is the old, old story of Eve,
the apple and the devil, slightly re-
vamped. We often see accounts of the
girls being. run in," but very seldom
the male outfit being interfered with.
No! No! these little darlings must not
be interfered with, but let the girls go
to - -- Chicago. Out upon
it. Let us have justice. If the girls
are to be banished, send the boys with
them, and. fear. if we are strictly i'm
partial age will not always escape
with immunity-for the bald headed
row" goes without saying" When one
thinks of his fallen sisters and the
temptations they have had to under
go' he is reminded of Tom Hoods
Bridge of Signs" Were not the fallen
women born of a mother who loved
them? Are they bad, all bad, and the
male part of the community all good.
except they are so weak they must
not be tempted by Eve? Ac-
cording this double standard of morals
one would suppose that the male part
of the community, if kept out OF sight
of these tempting sirens, would become
as pure and sweet as the nectar of the
gods, and as morally white as the wav-
ing plumes of the Archangels. The
article in the Bulletin deals only with
the disease-and not at all with the
cause. Will such course remove this
moral and physical leprosy? I think
not TT ooorno RI ,oo tho romadv ia nv
correct teaching and example to re.
form the morals of both men and
women. And does this not mean men
tai and spiritual evolution?
