his nonpartisan sermon of a week
ago last Sunday evening was en-
larged upon, added to. misinter-
preted and misunderstood. Mr..
Brundage suggests that the fol
lowing old clipping be inserted.
The Origin of a Scandal.
Said Mrs. A.
To Mrs. j.
In quite a confidential way:
1T seems to me.
That Mrs. B.
Takes too much of something-in
her tea.
And Mrs. j.
To Mrs. X.
That night was overheard to say
She grieved to touch
Upon it much
But Mrs. b. took-such and such!
Then Mrs. X.
Went straight away,
And told "A friend. the seIf-same
day,
Twas sad to think,
Here comes Il wink
THAT Mrs. b. was fond of drink"
1.-The friends disgust
Was such she must
Inform "A lady which she nussed,'
That Mrs. B.
AT half-past three,
Was thatfar gone shecouldn't see
This lady we
Have mentioned she
Gave needlework to Mrs. b.
And at such news
Could hardly choose
But further needlewurk refuse.
Then Mrs. b.
AS you'll agree.
Quite properly-she said, said she,
That she would track
The scandal back
To those who made her look so
black.
Through Mrs. X
And Mrs. j.
She got at last to Mrs. A.
And asked her why.
With cruel lie.
She painted her so deep n dye,
Said Mrs. A.
In sore dismay.

the gorgeous, splendid sunsets and
phenomenal cloud pictures often seen
by day and by night. In almost
every laud the clouds seem to rest
back against distant sky, as il they
were painted on Athe sky, but here
they stand out in the immediate fore
front like sculpture, far away from
the background Of sky. The atmos-
pherc conditions near the horizon are
something like those on the Bay OF
Bengal When the sun approaches
the western horizon, the refracting
power Of the air is so great that the
lower side Of the sun seems to drop
down, presenting the appearance OF a
globe OF fire resting on the top of a
column. The face Of the sun is
scarcely hid before you feel the chill
ing change Of temperature.

MISSOURI HAS No RIVAL.
Judge J. N. Lowe on the Great
ness Of the State.
COMPARISON WITH SISTER STATES.
The Lines Have Fallen to Us in Pleas.
ant Places.

1t has long been so fashionable in
certain quarters, either because of
political prejudice or lack Of iuforma-
tion, to deride 'poor old mossback
Missouri, that / propose simply 30
state the unvarnished truth. The
twelfth census report, just out, places
Missouri 10 the first rank among the
agricultural states They rank as
follows: Missouri first. Iowa second,
Illinois third, Indiana fourth, Ohio
fifth, Pennsylvania sixth, New York
seventh. Missouri is only second 80
Texas in the number Of farms, and
second to Iowa in the percentage of
improved lands, but first in value of
farm property and farm products.
Now, add to her agricultural re-
sources her mineral output and she
stands without rival. In minerals
she ranks as follows; First in xlnc,
third in lead, thirteenth 10 coal and
seventeenth in IRON. And yet her min
eral districts are not even partially
developed There are mountains Of
mineral in the state without trans
portation facilities She is far in the
lead Of all the states 10 the produc-
tion Of apples, with some Of the
largest orchards in the world just
being planted.
Moreover, it has been equally fash
ionaole TO refer to the illiteracy OF
Missourians. The facts taken from
the same report show that Missouri
ranks sixth among the states, and
ahead of Massachusetts,, in the circula-
tion of "all publications., and holds
the same rank 10 daily newspaper
reading, while Kansas and Kentucky
are sixteenth and seventeenth, re-
spectively.
1t will be of at least local in
terest to know that in daily news
paper circulation, in proportion to
inhabitants, Kansas City ranks sec
ond, Boston third, New York eighth
and Chicago seventeenth.
Another interesting fact is that
jackson county staAas second in agri-
culture in this great state, and has a
greater mileage OF macadamized coun.
try roads than any county 10 the
United States. Add to this. tha,
: more live stock, for feeding purposes
are marked here than in any city il
the United States, and that she is Tho
second largest live shock market IL
the world, with rapidly increasing
manufacturing interests, with rea
y estate cheaper than In any city II
the United States, in the same class
o with better schools and more Of them
to the population, and better pave'
n streets and boulevards than any cit,
in the United States, and it will ia
deed appear that "the lines hav
!. fallen to us in pleasant places; yea
= we have "a goodly heritage. u. NJ
