Remember the Mothers.

The ladies, too, have done. their part
toward the up-building of the city and
widening the channels of all that per-
tains to good society and sobriety.
These pioneer women, assisted very
materially in making the county what
1t is today. They adjusted themselves
to the situation and lent a very help
ing hand to their husbands and broth
ers, as the case may have been. Too
much praise canont be given these old
mothers of Grant county. They knew
no fret o complaint could change ma
lures resistance, characteristic to a
new country, so they put their shoul-
ders to the work, thus stimulating and
encouraging the men. They cared for
the children and prepared the meals,
even if it was sometimes scanty, and
when necessity compelled, they grab
bed the wet mat and helped to ex-
tinguish the cruel prairie; fire that then
threatened home and lie. They adj
ministered amidst sickness and sorrow
and gave cheering words ever though
the hungry wolves howled about their
cabin door. She was at the front in
school and Sunday school and all else
that was elevating and moral. . Their
patience and self-denial, courage and
loyalty were living examples of what
a true heart can neve forget. There
fore. let us remember the pioneer wom-
en- of Grant county.

"Yes, it does"
'"Then, madam" said Mr.. NJ, taking

in the hand of George III. to this effect:

How to Grow Short.

II you climb a mountain, your height
decreases by three-quarters Of an inch.
and it may even diminish, exceptional
~, by a full inch. =
This is a fact known to all expert
enced mountain and Alpine climbers.
On reaching the summit Of the heights
that form the pleasure ascents of holi.
day makers in the Alpine districts the
stature of the climber is found to have
become less to the extent already men,
toned.
Doctors think that the attitude as
sumed Of necessity in ascending is the
cause of this elimination. Some per-
sons believe that the pressure of the at
mosphere produces this shrinking. In
favor Of the medical theory there is the
other unQuestionable fact that the de.
crease Of stature IL greater in those
who carry . heavy pack during the
climb.
When the Alpinist has descended to
the ordinary level, his height begins to
increase, but the normal length Of the
body IL not attained until several hours
after reaching the regular surface of
the earth.

The Congrega.ionalist, a denomina-
tlonal organ of liberal tendencies, re-
ports an incident illustrative of the
gradual disappearance OF the high
fences that once marked the division
lines between crceds and sects in the
Christian church. At the recent ill.,
stallation of pastor of Il Univer-alist
church in one of the New England
cities a Methodist delivered the prayer,
n Congregalonnlist preached the SER
mon, the right hand OF fellowship"
was extended by II Baptist with well
chosen remarks, short addresses were
delivered by another Congregationalist
and by Unitarian, and graceful
letter of welcome and congratulatiOn
was read from The rector of an Episco-
pal church. Evidently Christian unity
is making substantial progress in the
world, despite the fact that there are
even now great many orthodox min
listers who still cling to hard-shell ira
ditions and continue to preach II the
ology which is more lurid than lumin-
Gus. They mean well, of course, but
they do not seem to realize that "there
are no tidings of great joy in the
thought of hell and damnation." In
the language Of The Philistine, "All
sensible preachers are talking less
about the next world and more about
this. The man who believes in the
devil now has the devil he believes in
for his friend. Man creates both his
god and his devil i'm his own image.
His god is himself at his best and his
devil is himself at his worst" And
The Philistine, which, 10y the way, is
very appropriately called IA Periodical
of Protest. even goes SO far US to say
that "rhere is no dispassionate and
unprecedented man now but knows and
will admit that Protestant churches in
America are no longer religious insti-
tutions. They are social clubs with a
ritual (often obsolete,) and as such
serve their purpose, and surely are
more or less useful But they are over
done, and most preachers are overpaid,
when you consider the equivalent they
render. There is only one truth and
no church holds monopoly of it. All
preach about the same gospel, and all
orthodox churches have now met the
competition of the Universalists and
Unitarians by putting in the same line
of goods. Churches, like department
stores, carry the wares that are asked

THE AMERICAN RACE

A recent bulletin of the census bureau
touching the nativity and descent OF
the population of the United States
furnishes an interesting theme for COM
parison and comment. By this it is
shown that in 1900 of every 1000 in
habitants S63 were born in this country
and 1877 elsewhere, so that less than
one-seventh were foreign born, and
many of these came here in childhood.
Both parents of 657 in each 1000 were
natives of the country, and of 343 one
or both parents were born abroad. In
276 cases both parents were of foreign
birth, i'm 40 the father only and % only
the mother.
Taking together those who were born
abroad and those whose parents We're
foreign born, it is found that III in
1000 are of German extraction, 73
Irish, 80 British, 81 Canadian, y Rus
sian and Polish, - Austro-Hungarian-
Bohemian, Is Italian, IA scandinavian
and French and Swiss.
Thus our whole population is a blend
of different enthusiastically a new
race of people. No doubt the English
element OF colonial times has been
strong enough TO act as II solvent and
will doubtless remain the dominant
element, but it has been materially
modified by what it las absorbed and
still more by the environment in which
1t has worked. While the blending by
interrmarriage Is constantly going on
the molding of life by American condi-
tons is more powerful factor in the
process.
