Sketch Of Bishop Merrill.

Stephen Mason Merrill was born
Sept. 16, 1925, at Mount Pleasant, JEFF
ferson county, Ohio. His father, who
was a son of New Hampshire minute
man of the revolution, was a shoe
maker and taught his son the same
trade. The family moved to Green
field, Ohio, where young Merrill Joined
the Methodist church in 1912 and was
licensed to preach in 1845, before he
was 20 years old.
His educational advantages were
slender, considering his subsequent
success. Besides the studying he did
while at work as shoemaker, he had
only few years at the public schools
and a year at the South Salem acad-
envy and the special training of a
scholar and teacher. Rev. DIR. James G.
Blair. But being possessed of fine in
tellectual abilities, he applied himself
so assiduously that before his death he
was considered not only a well-read
man and a fine theologian, but fair
Latin. Greek and Hebrew scholar.
He was admitted to the Ohio confer
ence in 1916, the year made memorable
by the secession of the Methodist
church, south, from the general con-
ference. His first appointments were
to the Monroe, Wilmington, Roseville,
WOrthington, Marysville, Groveport
and Pickering circuits and he was af-
terward pastor successfully of
churches at Granville. GAINESVILLE and
Portsmouth. Ohio.
In 1859 he was transferred to the
Kentucky conference and was first pre-
siding elder of the Maysville district
and then pastor of a church in Gov
| ington. In 1868 he was transferred

Ferocious kissing Bug,

The discovery of kissing bug"
larger and more ferocious than the
mysterious insect that was so often
reported in various parts of the Unit
ed States a few years ago is reported
by Prof. A. L. Herrera, chief -agricul-
tural entomologist of the republic of
Mexico. A description of the bug,
which Prof. Herrera says is known in
Mexico as chinche voladora, and is the
cause of considerable apprehension of
serious injury, especially to children,
which it attacks by puncturing the
skin with its beak and sucking the
blood, has reached the bureau of en-
tomology of the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
The real name of the insect is mec-
Gus pallidipennis, belonging to the
Reduvil family, being larger than
the native American SO called kiss
ing bug" and is closely related to con-
orhinus, the genus which includes the
cone noses, the most bloOdthirsty of
the species. 1t measures upward of
an inch and a quarter in length and
five-eighths of an inch in width, and is
black in color, with light converging
bands like the markings of turtle.
1.-The insect is so large and of such
formidable appearance" says the bu-
reaus report, chat we would natural
ly expect it to be capable of danger

Umbrellas on Hire.

America has now scores OF depots
where an umbrella can be hired for
five cents by any one overtaken by
rain minus their useful ''gamp."
These umbrellas are so well marked
that there is no fear of the dishonest
making off with them You hire at
one point, and may return the article
at any of the depots convenient to
you. That the system is of service is
proved by the f1ourishing condition OF
the company exploiting the novel idea.
The umbrellas for hire are, of course,
not costly affairs, but still all that is
required for emergency.

CHINESE FRUIT FOR AMERICA.
Consul Thinks the PomeIo Would Do
Well in This Country.

Consul Anderson of Hangchow
thinks the pomelo, or Chinese bread
fruit, would do well in this country.
The fruit is grown in the United
States by a few persons, but not COM
mercially. Foreigners agree that the
pomelo is the finest fruit in the far
east. 1t combines the good points of
the orange with the good points of
the grape fruit.
The Chinese say that a good-sized
tree will ordinarily produce from 600
to 700 pomeloes. When it is consic-
cred that many pomeloes will run as
large as seven or eight inches in
diameter and even larger, it will be
appreciated that such a. tree is bear
ing a load. The fruit is more oval
than round. Its color and appearance
are those of the grape fruit.
