There are some newspaper men in
this country who express the fear
that President Roosevelt is too siren
uous. They can find pleasure in the
fact that the Europeans who have an
eye on South America. particularly
on the neighborhood in which Brazil
is situated, have the same fear. 1t
is pretty good rule to be contented
when certain other nations are dis
satisfied.

HARVEST FESTIVAL OF
THE SALVATION ARMY.

All who are familiar with the S 81
vation Army and its method of work.
are aware that this organization cele-
brates in the fall of each year what is
known as the harvest festival. 1t j.
about FIVE years now since this al
festival began to be generally oh
served by the Salvation Army
through ut this country, and it has
come to be recognized fact that
once a year not only salvationists
but also all friends and sympathizers
shall bring las God has ProsPered
them" an Offering to help on the
work.
If any friends desire to donate
something for the Salvation Army
harvest festival for 1901. let them not
refrain from any fear that the gift
may not be disposed OF for money or
used for the good of the poor. Arti-
cles that will be accepted include:
Fruit flowers, vegetables. fish,
meat, chicken. corn, flower, wheat,
oat meal, bread. crackers. cheese, tea,
coffee. cocoa, books, pictures. Jew
elry. shoes, coal, wood cond eur ed
milk, canned goods. live stock, lum-
Der, shingles, chairs. sheets. blankets,
cutlery, tools.
The proceeds IF the sale are es-
pecially for the benefit of the home
work, a large proportion of what is
raised in one city or town being used
for the local work, and the remainder
going for the carrying on of the work
throughout the country; and surely
all will agree that the work being
done by this organization in this
country is worthy of support from
everyone who loves to see the condi-
ton of the poor improved and the
tide of sin in a measure checked The
dates of the fes ival are Sept. 81 to
