YOUR INFLUENCE.

A little girl, the daughter of a
prominent man, approached her
father and asked him this question
Gather, are you a Christian?" The
reply was: emo, Beulah, I am not"
She turned and went away, and as
she walked slowly off the father
heard her say to herself "Well, if
father isn't a Christian, I don't want
to be one" The words went straight
to that fathers heart. He was
troubled. The thought that he was
influencing his child by his life to
reject the offers of salvation robbed
him of all peace. The result was he
gave himself to Christ. How many
fathers are there among the readers
of these columns who are blocking
the way to heaven for their children.
To be a stumbling block for any hu-
man brother to fall over into eternal
ruin is dreadful to contemplate, but
to stand between ones own child and
heaven is too much worse for ade-
uuate characterization. How great
need there is for all to ponder the
truth wrapped in the old saying that
children seldom rise higher than the
mouths of their homes.-Rev. P. r.
Law.

Hon. /. S. Smithmeyer, architect of
the new Congressional Library of Wash
ington, D. c., ranks first in his profess
sion in this country. This library is
considered the finest building in the
United States. Mr.. Smithmeyer spent
sixteen years travelling in Europe work
ing on the plans, and Congress appro-
oriated six million dollars for shis
building.
In q letter written from Washington
and dated July 4th, 1899, to The Peruna
Medicine Co., Columbus, O., Mr.. Smith
meyer says the following in regard to
Peruna, the world-renowned catarrh
cure:
WASHINGTON, D. c., July 4, 1899.

ion expressed by Senators and Repre-

curative qualities of your compound.
Those who have used it recommend it as
an excellent tonic which is particularly

DO YOUR BEST.

A minister tells how, when a boy,
he was a great whistler, and some
times whistled in unusual and I'M
seemly places. One day, not long
since, says an exchange, he came out
of a hotel whistling quite low. A
little boy playing in the yard heard
him, and said: SIS that the best
you can whistler"
"No, said the minister, "can you
beat it?"
The boy said he could, and the
minister said: "Well, let's hear
you"
The little fellow began to whistle,
and then insisted that the minister
should try again. He did so, and
the boy acknowledged that it was
good whistling, and as he started
away the little fellow said: "Well,
if you can whistle better, what were
you whistling that way for?"
Sure enough, why should not any

THE DUEL.

rbe Bingham dog and the calico cat
cd by side on the table sat: ;.
twas half-past twelve, and what do
you think!
Neither of them had slept a wink
And the old Dutch clock and Chi
nese plate
Seemed to know, as sure as fate.
There was going to be an awful spat,
Il wasn't there-I simply state
What was told to me by the Chi
nese plate.)
The gingham dog went 'sbow-wow-
WOW !"
And the calico cat replied "me-ow %
And the air was streaked for an hour
OF so
With fragments of gingham and
calico,
While the old Dutch clock in the
chimney place
Up with its hands before it's face,
For it always dreaded a family row
Now mind, I'm simply telling you
What the old Dutch clock declares
is true.)
The Chinese plate looked very blue
And walled: "Oh, dear! what shall
we dol"
But the bingham dog and the calico
cat
Wallowed this way and tumbled
that
And utilized every tooth and claw
In the awfulest way you yer saw
And, oh! how the Bingham and
calico flew!
Don't think that I exaggerate-
l got my news from the Chinese
plate.)
Next morning where the two had sat
They found no trace Of the dog or
cat
And some folks think unto this day
That burglars stole that pair away
But the truth about that cat and
pup
Is that they ate each other up
Now, what do you really think of
that?
(The old Dutch clock, it told me so,
And that is how I came to know

THE BOY WHO has AN OBJECT.

Among the stream of boys who
pass your door, it is easy to pick out
the one who is going on an errand in
which he is interested. These other
lads are out to find something to take
up their time. They saunter and
stare. They Ioiter aimlessly on street
corners. The least thing is enough
TO attract their attention.
Then along comes the boy who has
an object. The very ring of his boot.
heels on the pavement has a mean
ing. His head is up and he looks
neither to the right o left. His
comrades call to him, and he throws
them back an answer without turn
ing. One has only to look at him,
only to hear his quick, energetic
step, to realize how important his
mission is to him.
Some people saunter through life,
looking about to find something in
~teresting, and you recognize them at
a glance. Their speech, their man
ner, their very gait, betrays them.
And on the other hand, you cannot
mistake the person who has an OBJ
iect, who is working for an end.
There are odds in ambitions, we must
remember, and some miss the high

In this weeks issue of The Pro
gressive Farmer, the editor asks his
readers the following pertinent ques-
tions, which we think will bear
repetition here:
care there any homes in your
neighborhood without the enlighten-
ing and elevating influence of a
clean progressive farm and family
newspaper"
"Can anything be done to improve
the public schools in your district?"
"Have the people of your section
made any effort to secure rural free
delivery of mail?"
"Has your public school yet estab-
lished a library?"
These questions-every one of
them-are important ones. They
deal with you and your neighbor,
with your children and your neigh
boris children. Upon the correct
solution of these questions depends
much of the welfare of our people.
How many of our readers are in
terested in securing good reading
matter for their children in the form
of a good newspapers, magazines and
books? In this day of advancement
in the art of book-making and low
priced newspapers only a few dollars
j~Udiciously spent will keep a family
we'll supplied with good reading mat
ter for a whole twelve months.
How many readers of this paper
have made efforts to improve the
public schools in this county? How
many are enough interested in their
children's education to make sacri-
fees to keep them in school during
the entire session? Every parent
should do this and when our people
become thoroughly aroused to the
great Importance of educating their
children, then advances will be
made, not only along educational
lines, but along industrial lines, as
we'll. Each individual can do some
thing. And it is his duty to do that
something.
Every school district in the county
ought to have a library. How many
are trying to get one? Now is the
time to begin this work so that by
the time the schools begin next sum-
mer each public school will have a
library to encourage the children.
There are children in every section
of the county who are hungering for
some good book to read. A library,
though small, will help to feed the
hungry mind.
Better mail facilities is another
great need. Let the people in every
section of our county do what they
can to get a more efficient mail SER
vice. Our Congressman, Hon. Ed
ward W. Pou, will be glad to aid our
people along this line.
We hope to see the mail facilities
much improved in the next two
years. United effort will do this
