To Make Christians at $3.50 a Head.

An interesting letter has been re-
celved at the Baptist Foreign Mission
rooms giving an account of increase
Of Christianity in China. So anxious
are the natives to become identified
with the new religion that great care
has to be exercised in receiving can
didates into the church for fear their
conversion is not "a true one.
Rev. Thomas McCloy writes that a
man connected with no church was
doing fine business near Canton,
advertising that he would make
Christians of the natives at $l.6O a
head. He had more applicants than
he could attend to and DR.. McCioy,
hearing of the affair, notified the
authorities and had a stop put to
the performance. He also wrote
that he had 800 applicants for bap-
tism, aud another missionary wrote
that he had baptized 160 during the
past year.

So II Should.

The frequent occurrence of fires dur
ing the past few months should impress
upon the people the great importance of
keeping their property insured. A poor
man especially cannot afford to run the
risk of letting his property go unin-
sured. 1t may be hard to pay the prem
iums, but that is nothing compared
with the satisfaction liberal insurance
affords the man who keeps an eye to
the happiness and protection of his fam
lily. BY all means keep your property
insured, however great the sacrifice

James B. PostIes Died Sudden

On Thursday afternoon, September
18th, 1902, James B. Postles promi-
nent farmer five miles northwest Of
Milford, was stricken with apoplexy
and died in few moments. He had
just started back to work in his field,
after having eaten a hearty dinner, and
on the way stopped to fix fence that
needed his attention, and there he died.
His hired man found him there and
gave the alarming news to the family.
Mr.. Postles was in his 49th year, and
a son of Mrs. Margaret Postles, of Mil
ford; brother to Frank E. Postles, OF
Smyrna, and to Charles B Postles, the
retiring member of the Kent County
Levy Court for this district. He was q

nerve-shattering fact, the house was on

the stairway was dense, choking black

get down and out that way was clearly
an impossibility. Out Of the window

ately and without accident landed safe
from the horror of the moment. in the
middle Of the night, TUNED out in the
grass barefooted and half-dressed; but
the air was warm. Some clothing, bed
clothes and two mattresses had been
tumbled out, and a temporary shelter
was close by. Then commenced a
scramble for other valuables. We burst
in the dining-room door, but could not
enter; but smashed a window and
made couple Of grabs from my desk.
Next we smashed a corner window in
the kitchen and drew out gun, an oil
can and wash-board; then we broke
in the parlOr door and made two trips
in there, after which we could only
stand and watch the rapid destruction
of practically everything we owned on
earth
But right then and there commenced
a course of proceedings the like of
which never did. in all my exper-
fence with human nature-both in our
own and foreign countries-see or hear
the like of.
First came urgent solicitations from
neighbors on all sides to make their
house our home, and in the morning
commenced a stream of contributions
pouring in from all directions. Food
milk, clothing, oil stoves, crockery,
knives and forks, spoons, canned goods,
groceries, flour, side meat, shoes, dry
goods, and even money-which, though
II IS said to be an evil root, is certainly
an all-important factor in this case.
Such great and glorious generosity;
such golden christianity; such genuine
do-as-yOu-would-be-dOhe-by kindness
and thoughtful consideration for 9th
ers, completely overwhelmed us. Words
cannot express our gratitude Il the
whole English language is too small
to express our full appreciation Of fav-
ors received. We are dumb and can
only say thanks, friends, thanks, thanks,
and thanks.
Our wish, our hope, and our prayer,
is that you may one and all forever be
exempt from trouble Of any and all
descriptions-but from fire in particu-
lar We shall forget your kindness
when we enter our last sleep, but never
before. G. H. BARROws.

"a tribute to the memory of Howard
H. Emory, who died at his home in
Frederick, August Slst, 1922
Farewell, Howard. your days were numbered
Ere score Of years had flown;
Though you lived so short season,
Many seeds Of love were sown.
Oh, twas sad to part with Howard
In the morning of his lief
Manhood's gates were just before him,
Bot he wearied Of the strife.
He, his fathers pride and comfort
AS the years swift pass away;
While the fathers form is bending
And his brow is crowned with gray.
He, his mothers cherished loved one,
Last Of all the six left, still
J o be at home and comfort mother
AS she travels down the hill
He, his sisters youngest brother,
How their hearts are filed with gloom
For his smiles and bOyish speeches
1 Now the silence Of the tomb.
Oh, our hearts were torn with sorrow,
TO lay him in the lonely grave;
But we know the Heavenly Father
/ Only calleth what He gave.
For He sent an angel Reaper
To gather fair sheaves, the day
The summons came to Howard,
And his spirit was borne away.
So again we hope to meet him,
When our work on earth is done;
May each of us in heaven
Be gathered, one by one.
His lifelong friend, B. L. NJ.
