There was once a man who smiled
Because the day was bright,
Because he slept at night,
Because God gave him sight
TO gaze upon his child:
Because his little one
+: Could leap and laugh and RUM
Because the distant sun
Smiled on the earth he smiled.
He smiled because the sky
Was high above his head:
Because the rose was red,
Because the past was dead1
He never wondered why
The Lord had Numbered so,
That all things have to go
That wrong way here, below
That everlasting sky
He tolled and still was glad
Because the ar was free:
Because he loved and she
That claimed his love and ha
Shared all the joys they had!
Because the grasses grew.
Because the sweet winds blew
Because that he could hew
And hammer he was glad.
Because he lived and smiled
And did not look ahead
With bitterness or dread,
But nightly sought his bed
As calmly as child.
And people called him mad
For being always glad.
With such things as he had.
And shook their heads and smiled.

Indiana's Pure Food Law,

The test of the new Indiana pure
food law is as follows: BE it enacted
by the general assembly of the state
of Indiana that whatsoever manufact-
ures for sale, or offers or exposes for
sale, as pure bran. shipstuff. offal or
mill feed, manufactured out of wheat
intended for use of animals, any bran,
shipstuff. shorts. offal or mill feed, shall
be determined guilty of a misdemeanor
and on conviction thereof shall be fined
In any sum not more than 500 nor less
than $50" Laws do not enforce
themselves, but farmers in Indiana now
have a means whereby they may reach
the desired end.

A Bug That Eats caterpiIIars.

Mr.. S. w. Demaree, a Johnson county
Indiana farmer, reports to an Indiana
paper that his orchard has been kept
free from caterpillars for the last two
or three years, by the beetle known as
the green caterpillar hunter. This is a
large beetle, about an inch in length,
bright green in color, and having the
appearance of FURNISHED metal 1t
hunts its natural prey, the caterpillar,
with relentless energy. even ascending
the trees and boring into the nests, and
Mr.. Denmaree suggests that all orch
ardists should be acquainted with the
handsome little fellow and give him q
cordial welcome whenever he appears.

| The remarkable growth of labor
unions In recent years is illustrated

llished in the last quarterly bulletin of
the department of labor of that state.
| In 1894 the number Of unions was only
$50. with a membership of 1919.
Since then there has been steady
increase until now there ere 1855 labor
organizations conducted for the most
part on trades union principles, with
a membership of S57,234. The most
striking increase has been in the last
twelve months. Analysis of the figures
further shows that the organizations
nave doubled their membership within
the past five years. The figures are for
only single state, but it is probable
that the same causes that were oper-
alive there have been IN existence and

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.
Short hours are not the privilege o
the man who attains high position o
responsibility" observes the Sioux Cit.
Tribune. The boss usually has IL
work like a harvest hand"
I The Carroll Herald thinks that JOKE
about the poor editor is decidedly an.
tiquated No newspaper man who ha:
q regard for his business should dea
| in such rusty, musty material. Many
EDITORS are poor, just like doctors, law
yers and ordinary people. But the av-
erage man with fair business capacity
makes as much money in the newspa-
per business and accumulates as much
property as the average man in any
other line. And we notice that the edi-
tor who has ability and enterprise
above the average generally holds his
i own in the business community. Don't
pity the editor; he doesn't like and he
doesn't need or deserve r:ty.''
The Council Bluffs Nonpareil explains
that the reason the increased real es-
tate assessment of this year looks so
formidable is merely because the as
SCISSORS have done at one time what
they should have done by degrees. THE
leverage actual valuation for this year
lis not unreasonable" the Nonpareil
at SAC. which is considerably below the
right valuation.as every farmer in Iowa
knows. and not above it."
The Muscatine Journal in cruel mirth
observes: THE Iowa City Republican
lis tired of handsome men as guberna-
tcrial candidates. Why not nominate
David Brant? Wouldn't that remedy
the evil?"
"rhe Iowa idea means sanity in tariff
legislation says the GiiGden Graphic.
Nothing more nor less. 1t is in the
platform and those who do not inter-
pref the planks in this way have never
understood the two previous platforms,
or, understanding them, have purpose
iy misrepresented them"
The Ottumwa Democrat wishes Gov
ernor CummiEs would challenge Mr..
Sullivan TO debate upon the two Iowa
Platforms. Could such a debate be ar
ranged. the Democrat says. it will
guarantee that Cummins will be the
worst whipped candidate for governor
who ever ran in Iowa when the debate
is over" The editor of the Democrat
must be something of a humorist in his
way.
The Boone Republican says: "a
man in Marshalltown is Icing tried for

under the influence of one OF them,
Peter Boiler, John became convinced
OF his want OF that faith whereby
alone we are saved" This was EN-.
phasized by his experience with a
man under sentence OF death, and the
influence Of this was such that on
May "a. 1898, he came to the full be-
lief In the new creed. which before
had been as a sealed box to him.
This revolutionized the whole char
acter and method Of his ministry. or
the event Rev. Hugh Price Hughes
wrote: THE rubicon was crossed. The
sweeping aside of ecclesiastical tradi-
tons, the rejection of the apostolic

own hands Of presbyters and bishops,
the final organization of separate

logically involved in what took place
that night"

On New Years eve, 1889, seven Of
the oxford Methodists-all ministers
OF the church of England-and some
sixty others held "watch-night" serv-

were subsequently ingrained into uni

night" was first established as a reg
ular custom at Kingswood, Dec. 81,
1740.
Whitefield had already begun to
preach in the open air. and Wesley
adopted the custom with some mis-
givings, which were modified by his
remembrance of the Sermon on the
Mount" Under his preaching at Bris
tol multitudes broke out into strange
cries and shouts, with singular physi-
