The beauty of holiness is the beauty
of purity.
The vexation, restlessness and lm-
patience which small trials cause arise
wholly from our ignorance and WANT
of self control.
Your religion is good if it is vital
and active; if it nourishes in you
confidence, hope, love, and Il sentl'
ment of the infinite value of cAlstence
Dealing with God is Il holy busI'
ness. He is holy. His word IS holy
His day is holy. His house is holy
His name is holy. "Without holiness
no man shall Sc the Lord"

.'Thy GentIeness Hath Made No
Great.'

The strength of God is very gentle.
He does not make great noise IN
lifting the tides or IN speeding the
stars in their courses. The sunshine
is one of his greatest treasures OF pow
er. He turns the heart Of stalwart
sinners by the touch of infant fingers
or by the memory Of a pious mothers
spiritual beauty and fidelity. BY low
Ing invitations, tender encourage
ments, and manifold ministries of
patience and sympathy, he encourages
the penitence and faith of sinful and
weak human hearts. His children
should seek more of his gentleness.
We are too easily tempted to bluster
and violence. We forgot that gentle
ness is greatness as we'll as goodness.
IF we would do brave deeds, let US
seek to he filed with divine gentleness.

ROCK ISLAND TREATY TWO MONTHS OLD
Union Pacific Receives All Through
COnsiEnments at Denver and
Would Also Secure that Carried
Thither by Other Lines.

CHICAGO, Feb. DIN connection with
the new relations between the Rock ISL
and. Union Pacific and Southern Pacific t.
developed today that the Hartman inter
ests opened the Denver and Cheyenne gate
way to Rock Island freight trafhc two
months ago. The arrangements whereby
the Rock Island now turns over freight TO
the Union Pacific at these points we're COM
pleted in Chicago.
Formerly the Denver & Rio Grande Sc
cured all the Rock Islands through freight.
Now. however, the Union Pacific receives
the bulk of it. The traffic agreement
whereby the Rock Island exchanges traffic
with the Union Pacific does not include
passenger business, which still is handled
by the Denver & Rio Grande except thst
which originates at Memphis.
1t is understood that a tentative move
has been made by the Union Pacific toward
securing friendly Interchange with the Bur
lington through the Denver gateway, there
by completing the list of Denver Chicago

ably take three weeks to try Il after the
fury is procured, which will possibly take

tested, and one of the hottest legal battles
In the history Of Butler county will be
fought. Judge Good announced that when
the case is commenced that every minute
Will be occupied and no time lost; that the

8 O'Clock in the morning and the evening
