prayer meeting conducted by G. M.
Garth of CORTLAND attended by about
fifty or fifty-five of the delegates. At

Zone of the greatest weaknesses in our

also discussed by Marion Lawrence, j. L.
Trotman and others.

THE NAVAJO BLANKET

Out in the land of little rain,
OF eanou-Tift and cactus-plain,
An Indian woman, short and swart,
This blanket wove with patient art;
And day 10 day, through all year,
Before her loom, by pattern queer.
She stolidly a story told
A legend Of her people, old.
With thread on thread, and line on llnei
She wrought each curious design:
The symbol OF the day and n1ght,
or desert and OF mountain height,
or journey long and storm-beset,
OF village passed and dangers met,
OF winds and seasons, cold and neat,
OF famine harsh and plenty sweet
Now in this paleface home it lies,
Meath careless, unsuspecting eyes
Which never read the tale that runs
A course of ancient, mystic suns.
TO us It's simply many-hued;
OF figures barbarous and rude;
Appeals in vain it's pictured lore;
An Indian blanket-nothing more.

Many people who show a good deal Of
Christian zest at the start so soon get tired
of being Christians. To have earnest views
of Christ and to be intensely interested in

THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES.

In the nominations of Judge Alton
Brooks Parker of New York, and
Henry G.. Davis of West Virginia, fOr
president and vice-preSident, respec-
lively, the National Democratic con-
vention did its work exceedingly well,
placing before the voters Of the United
States an unusually strong ticket.
Judge Parker is a high type of a man,
and if elected will make a great preSi-
dent. He has revealed to the country
that he possesses those qualities that
fit him for a capable leadership. The
very fact that he vas unwilling to be-
come the beneficiary of an evasion, a
concealment or a subterfuge, has COM
manded for him universal respect and
confidence. His telegram to the con-
vention in reference to the money
plank was a splendid and manly act,
and at once created for him a popular
ity among all classes. He refused to
go before the people for such an exalt-
ed position under suppressed views.
Judge Parker has the utmost conf
dence of the people, and where some
few weeks ago little hope existed in
the Democratic mind success now
seems very probable. The Democrat
ic nominee will carry New York, and
if reports can be relied upon several
of the heretofore doubtful States will
be found in the Parker column next
November.
