T. l.. ChAPPELL.
Esteemed by His Townsmen and Compli-
mented by His Home Paper.

After spending considerable time in
visiting various highly recommended
points in the north and west our es-
teemed citizen Mr.. I. l.. Chappell
has decided to locate permanently in
the model and thriving city Of Brook
ings, S. OAK, and left for that point
last Friday afternoon. 1t will be
difficult to find really more desirable
place To rear a family and conduct a
business than at Brookings, which
has the advantage Of first class college
and a moral and refined social atmos-
phere. While we congratulate Mr..
Chappell on the fact that he has
chosen such an admirable point to re-
engage in banking we view his re-
moval from Rockwell with tinge of
genuine regret.
Removing from his farm to Rock
we'll about thirteen years ago to take
charge as agent OF the business Of the
Farmers Incorporated Cooperative
Society than Just organized, and hav-
ing resided here continuously since,
Mr.. Chappell has won the respect,
confidence and esteem of the people
of the town and community. For
three long, stormy years Thomas L.
Chappel' by strict integrity and
shrewd business ability safely guided
the affHi-s of the Farmers Society
and placed it on the solid foundation
where it has since remained. About
this time the Farmers State Bank
was organized and recognizing his
ability and peculiar fitness for the po.
sition, the stockholders unanimously
elected him as cashier, which place
he has filled for the last ten years tC
the complete satisfaction Of all inter.
ested: Mr.. Chappell has a thorough
and complete knowledge Of banking
and as an all-around business man Ii
exceptionally we'll equipped, having
few equals. His affable manner anC
sturdy, upright business principles
have attracted the best Of customer:
to the financial concern with which
he has been so long identified in Rock
well. These, in common with all GU
people, sincerely regret his remova
and will join with the Phonograph il
commencing him to the citizens O
Brookings and Brookings county as {
gentleman worthy Of their every con
fidence Rockwell Phonograph.

MISPLACED CONFIDENCE.
Causes Lion Attendant to Lose a Thumb.

-
In speaking OF the Jabour show,
which will be one Of the main features
of the Elks' Big Fair, to be held at
Sioux City September 22-27, the Mani
toba Free Press says:
Jabour's show is all that their en-
thusiastic advance agent has painted
it. The menageria contains twelve
lions, three leoparas, two mountain
lions, dancing ,tssr, a hyena, per.
forming goats, s.5nkeys galore, and
five camels, These latter animals
were outside the tents, and were used
to give the public a ride. A great
number of people tried the experience
Of a ride on the dromedary's back
with varying effects and successes.
An incident or rather accident, not
without its humorous side, happened
yesterday in the Jabour animal tent
A lady asked an attendant if the lions
were cross.
"Oh, no, madam, just look at this,
said he.
The attendant showed his thumb in
the cage, An old lion, apparently
asleep, woke up with jerk, snapped
at the thumb and mangled it very bad
ly. The man was taken to the hos
pital tent and DR.. Anderson and the
nurse in charge looked after him
For awhile there was considerable
commotion. The thumb will likely
have to be amputated.

God has His plans in providence and
grace. They do not develop in a day.
They ripen by degrees. This does not suit
the human mind Men call for the speed
Ter processes. They become discouraged
and doubling at seeming delays or slow
movements. But this does not help mat
ters Our God takes His own time. He
makes no mistakes He will not be forced
neither will He force His own creatures.
He will not deviate from His ordained OPP
erations He will not shorten the steps
between the beginning and the end OF
His purpose. Every man must live out
his appointed life. Between his birth and
the grave lies an interval of preparation,
discipline and development, and whether
the period be long or short, there is no
escaping it, The intervening process is as
much decreed as are the beginning and the
ending. 1t stands related to the final out
come. 1t forms an important part IN
Gods great scheme in regard to time and
eternity. At times the experience may be
very trying, but the Christian will recog-
nize Gods hand in it and abide the issue
with patience, resignation and hope, as
sured that -'all things work together for
good to them that love God, who are the
called according to His purpose. The

Lord, through the coming year I make no
plea j..
For wealth or power; neither that OF grief

Grant me Thy peace
1 ask not that my days shall pleasure
know;
Nor that from sorrow ] shall find relief;
In hours of Joy, in hours of pain, or voc,
Grant me Thy peace
If storm-clouds lower, if the sky be gray
And lightnings rift the air; If stormy seas
Threaten to me engulf, dear Lord, | pray,
Grant me Thy peacel
II those trust deny me, or betray,
Till sorrows chaIice holds but bitter lees;
If hopes, long cherished, fail me hy the
way,
Grant me Thy peace
If ioy bids fair to be my WELCOME guest
Lest I forget-oh. leave me not alone;
But let my happy heart have added zest;
Grant me Thy peace.

A peace which deadens pain when hope

In Joy in grief, whether l die or live,
Grant me Thy peace!

The Loom OF Time.

A Christian mans life is laid in the
loom of time to pattern which he does
MOI see, but God does, and his heart is a
shuttle. On one side of the loom is sor-
row, and ON the other is joy, and the shut
tie, struck alternately by each, flies back
and forth, carrying the thread, which is
white or black as the pattern needs. And
in the end, when God shall lift up the
finished garment, and all its changing hues
shall glance out, it will then appear that
the deep and dark colors were as needful
to beauty as the bright and high colors.-
Henry Ward Beecher.

Inebriety is a condition of diminished
and defective consciousness of the rela-
tions of time and surroundings. The mem
DRY is unable to accurately record events,
and the senses fail to give correct impress
sions; the brain cannot coordinate or dis
criminate such impressions, and state
of anaesthesia is present which often
deepens into imbecility. The inebriate is
thrown out of harmony with his surround
ings and the organism is both mentally
and physically enfeebled, and he becomes
unfit for normal life and living.-Journal

An artist was complaining to friend
that American artists cannot afford to
paint large pictures because they could not
get prices that would pay for the work on
them. He said that those who could ap-
preciate good pictures had not the money
to buy them, and those who had the money
could not appreciate the amount Of work
that must be put into picture.
Happening to pass large house just
then he said, on chance, This man, for in
stance, would only buy small pictures, If
he bought any" The friend, who hap
pened to know something of the occupant
Of that house, dissented from this opinion,
saying that if that man bought pictures
at ali he would want to buy them by the
yard.
1t is true OF very many in regard to
other things than pictures that quantity
counts for more with them than quality.
Indeed we are all more or less inclined to
make this mistake, even in our Judgment
of people We measure them by their ca
pacity rather than by their quality. A
meek. gentle, faithful, pure hearted, self
sacrificing man or woman who, perhaps
because of these qualities, is compelled to
live In a poor house and wear PLAIN
clothes, and who has no snowy gifts or ac-
complishments. may be respected in pa
tronizing way, but never receives the -ad-
miration that is given SO freely to the
popular preacher or to the successful
money -getter or politician without any
particular regard to whether he possesses
any of the qualities that go to make up
Christlike character or not.
Every Christian will acknowled ge when
thinking of it carefully that this, is false
standard of values. that manhood and
womanhood should be judged by qaulity
and not by quantity, and that Christlike
humility should command far greater ad-
miration than outward success of any
kind And yet we are all so much under
the influence of the ideas of the world in
which we live that it is very difficult to
pay tribute to whom tribute is due in the
fun measure in which it is due when the
very qualities which demand our homage
keep their possessor from attaining to
what the world considers a respectable
rank in the community. 1t should be our
constant effort, however, to overcome
these false ideas and look at men and
women from Christ's point of view. We
must lear- to do SO if we want to become
Christlike ourselves.-New York Witness.
