Cannon Wants no Senatorship
from Illinois.
MAINE is GETTING DRYER
New Sheriff's Elected Say That Pro-
hibitiOn Law Must be Rig
idly Enforced.

Washington, Jan 2-Several men
who We're in the speakership fight for a
little while previous to the time that
they were willing to acknowledge that
Cannon would have waIkover, pricked
up their ears today when they learned
that there was a possibility of Cannon
being elected to the Senate from Illinois.
1t appears that the Republicans are not
at all satisfied with the deal which has
been made for Hopkins, and there is
quite a number of men in the illinois
Legislature who are kicking over the
traces.
Cannon was regarded as the most
available man, but he has sat down
very hard on any suggestion that he
should be candidate. He is sure of
the Speakership and will hold the posi-
ton as long as the Republicans OF the
House are in power, and that is a much
more powerful position than any place
in the Senate. Besides, Cannon realizes
that at the end OF six years IN the Senate
he would be quite an old man and
still far from >the influential position
which he now holds in the House.

Official Estimate Of The Expenses of

Fiscal Year 1908.

Washington, Jan Senator Mitch ell
through the holidays has been giving
special attention to the claims of the
old Indian war veterans in the Pension
Bureau and is Just in receipt of a letter
from the Commissioner of Pensions in
which that official says:
"All these Indian war veteran pension
claims to which you refer will have
careful consideration at the earliest
practicable date. There were on file in
the Pension Bureau on December |,
1902, 5000 claims OF survivors and
widows. Realizing the advanced age
of these claimants and the necessity for
early action, an extra force of clerks
have been detailed to this work in order
that these claims may be adjudlcated as
speedily as possible. | assure you no
effort will be spared to adjudicate these
claims at the earliest practicable
moment. No claim, however, can be
made special without an injustice to
other claimants equally old and3equalIy

proverbs !.

"Whcn the butter won't
come put penny IN the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gam strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
,ion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
Scots Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
/, the most satisfactory treat

City Snares Set For Girls.

The st. Louis Christian Advo-
cate editorially says: I'VE would
be very glad to impress our broth
ers of the country press with the
very great dangers that lie in wait
for the multitude of young girls
that are focking to our cities, es-
pecially st. Louis, and notably at
this time. The country press is a
tremendous power for good and il
they would keep this matter before
their readers, constantly warning
all as to this open door to ruin,
many might be saved who else
were lost. The gateway to st.
Louis, our great Union depot, is
beset by a thousand snares for un.
wary feet. Any young girl who
comes through the gates to the
midway is at once spotted and If
it be possible the snare will be 80
spread in her path that she cannot
escape. No girl should come here
unless absolutely certain as to her
course. The many tempting ad-
yertisements are often mere bats
for ignorance and innocence.
And il she comes to the city ready
to enter the first carriage whose
driver proposes to take her to a
good, cheap boarding house, or to
accept the first situation offered
where no experience is required, .
she may as well bid adieu to inno-
cence and hope when she leaves
her home. And as q matter OF
course the young man is almost
equally exposed 80 far as moral
or even physical safety is concern.
ed. II the country papers will
only keep these things before their
readers they will serve God and
humanity"

Consequence Of the Boer War.

From the Christian Intelligencer.
While the Boer war was still
raging, the Christian people of
South Africa were gladdened with
the tidings of an unusual spiritual
awakening in the various camps III
Ceylon and India, at st. Helena
and in the Bermudas, where the
Boer prisoners have been banished.
This awakening led to the con
version of hundreds of young men,
and among them l75 resolved to
consecrate themselves to mission
airy service in South and Central
Africa, and to seek preparation for
their contemplated life work just
as soon Ms they returned. They
came home in due time and their
purpose was unchanged. The Re
formed Dutch church of South AT
rica was deeply moved. And al
though greatly impoverished by
the drain and devastation of the
war, they purposed to see the
men through. a fund of $50,
600 was raised for the purchase OF
a building at Worcester, Cape
Colony, to serve as a preparatory
school.

THE HIGHER LIFE
The Worlds Demand for the Bible
II is great and rapidly growing

Ii is great and rapidly growing.
Voltaire. who died in TIT, pro-
phesied that within a hundred years
the Bible would be an unknown
book.
The number of volumes of holy
scripture that comes from the press
now every twelve months is about
eight million, more than the total
number that saw the light during
the first eighteen centuries after
Christ.
The Bible, which in Voltaire's
day existed in only thirty.eight
tongues, is now being read, in
whole or in part, in over four
hundred. One hundred and fifty
OF these languages were for the
first time reduced to writing by
Bible translators.
The chief Instruments, under
God, for meeting this great need
have been the Bible societies, of
which the American aud the Brit
ish and Foreign are foremost.
They cooperate to the fullest
degree, but thus far the British
society has been rs large as the
American.
Here is an "open door" that
challenges Americas most noble
enterprise. With the years the
American Bible society has gained
in strength, wisdom and opportu-
nifty. For the first period of TWEEN
ty-Rve years. lSl6.lS4l, it issued
2, 798, 366 volumes; in the second,
1887. .210; in the third, PAS,
1873, and fourth period would reach
50, 900, 900 at the present late of
about 1000, 600 year. This rate,
however, is far from meeting the
pressing calls to which, with Gods
blessing, America will respond
more and more generously.
