Missionary Society.
The following song, written by MI
w. p. HOrnadY, was sung at the sllve
Jubilee of the Weman's Foreign Mls
sionary Society in the Methods
church Sunday night:
Why Stand Ye Idle?
The heather in their bAindess
And superstitions stand,
while Providence in kindness
Smiles on our Christian land.
EOw can we stand unheeding
The Gospei's gracious call?
4iGo, ye," the Oh rist is pleading,
UAnd preach my word to all.
Can we who are protesting
The .Savior's ZANE TO love
Refuse to send the blessing
Of Tidings from above
To all ,benighted nations
Whose gates are open wide,
Our own blood bought relations,
For ghom the SAVIOR died?
Our God, in pity, pardon
Our weak, con tracted view;
Let not our conscience harden,
But may we start anew
And tell the old, old story
To every living soul,
And, by thy grace and glory
Well poiaJ them 10 the goal.
Forgive us for neglecting
So great an harvest field,
And send US out expecting
A more abundant yield.
Go with those, Lord, who carry
Thy light--thy courage lend;
May all of US who larry
This gospel message send.

NEW HoNons FOR THE HEN.

The international egg-laying con
test, the greatest sporting event in
which barn-yard fowls have ever par.
ticipated, is now half oyer, and to the
qualification of an admiripg and paE5
otto people the American hen is well
in the lead.
Six months ago si&ty-eight cOOps co1
hens were sent from all parts of the
world to Sydney, Australia, to be en-
tered in a year-loug competition. The
American representatives were fueth-
est from home and had but two weeks
to become acelimated and get in condi.
tion for the trial. yeti the first month
about two dozen and a hakeggs week
were taken from one coop of six. AS
matters stood when the score was last
reported to this country the six rose
comb brown leghorns brought up by a
Nebraska farmers wife had produced
587 eggs, leading all other 'oompeti-
tors.
This achievement of the American
hen should be source of greater pride
than capturing the cup in a yacht race
or winning Skinny game.
