First M. E. Church.

At the M. E. church Sunday even.
ing, the pastor preached very inter
esting and instructive sermon to the
young people. The Epworth League
attended in body, the front Of the
middle tier of seats having been re-
served for that purpose. Mr.. Warner
spoke in part as follows: "Life is
God s gift to us, what we make OF life
is our gift to God. Ingratitude is
often all the return made to God for
the wonderful gift Of life. We turn
our backs on Him without even saying
thank you and proceed to make of
our life what we want, not what God
wants. We are either a temptation
or blessing in this world. Does God
want a life which is constantly being
temptation to others, or does He
want one which is blessing? There
can be no middle ground. You 60 out
tomorrow, and you will either be
stumbling block or blessing to your
companions.
After the sermon a short consecra-
tion service for the young people was
held.

From Los Angeles Times, May g.
Mrs. Josephine Gould, of Michigan
on being called to the platform, sup.
plemented what her state president
had said with ringing two.minute
speech, delivered with most effective
oratory. She began by referring to
the influx Of foreign population to
our large cities and said:
1.-THE population Of our large cities
is very cosmopolitan. The ignorant
foreign element is quickly worked
upon by greed of political office.
Their conception of liberty is to do as
they please without regard to the
rights or we'll being OF others. They
are early imtued with the idea that
the highest boon of political prefer.
ment is that to the victorS belong the
spoils. That is the voice of the
Caesars, the voice OF the lord para
mount Of the middle ages, the voice
Of great political party in the early
history Of our country, but it is un-
democratic, it is un-American, it is
barbaric. We must look to civil ser.
vice reform to eradicate this vicious
principle.
sit may be we'll said that our pre-
sent municipal laws are the best that
time has given us, but we must con-
cede the fact that there is much of
evil in them to be corrected. 1t is
through our schools and at the polls
that we may have voice in munich
pal reform.

POULTRY POINTERS.

The best eggs are the result Of a
meat diet.
Weak legs come from forced growth
high feeding and close confinement.
Use no deformed or weak fowls for
breeding and do not keep the same
cock more than one season.
A molting hen seldom lays. She can
not be supplying eggs while the strain
of growing new feathers Is upon her.
A very fat hen seldom lays anything
but soft shelled eggs. Apoplexy and
egg bound are the result of excessive
fat.
Leaves and hay chaff make excellent
litter for the floors, and by throwing
grain among it fowls are often kept
busy scratching.
Keep the fowls away from the barns,
stables and carriage houses. In such
places they are nuisances; besides they
are more comfortable in a place by
themselves.
Hens must have carbonate and phos-
phate of lime for their Shells and these
will be found in old plastering, broken
oyster shells and bones, with some Of
the meat and gristle attached.
