A man who had banged the front

an hour appealed to a policeman to
help him break pane of glass or open
a window.

man. 'T'll wake up your family"
He walked up the street to a pile Of

Southwest Vernon Farmers Club.

SouWWoSt vSSUOU = druoTS NtuOs
The Southwest Vernon Farmers Club
was highly entertained at the beautiful
home of Mr.. and Mrs. S. B. Terry in
Durand January 5, 1905 Martin Har-
rington filled the Office of president for
the day in Mr.. Terry's place. Meeting
was opened by singing. M. w. West
conducted the devotional exercises,
after which we listened to roll call,
which found all families present but
one. The secretary's report was read
and accepted. Report of committees
came next.
After unfinished business, Mr.. Terry
called the clubs attention for short
time and said he had been called upon
to make little speech, and that he was
going to take for his audience the secre-
tary, Mabel Smedley. After congratu-
lating her on her two years work as
secretary of the club, he presented to
her, as token of remembrance and APP
probation from himself and all of the
club members, beautiful sterling sill
yer toilet set. When you speak of a
genuine surprise, it reminds me of when
Mr.. Terry presented to me this token,
which I highly enjoy and appreciate
very much. Therefore | wish to thank
the many friends for this token and /
will always remember the kind words
spoken to me by the Southwest Vernon
Farmers Club.
After this we adjourned for dinner,
which surely was fine feast and enjoy
ed by all.
On opening the afternoon program
Mr.. Harrington gave the delegates ex-
penses to Lansing and each member
was assessed thirty cents to pay this
bill and other club expenses. Mr.. and
Mrs. Nelson West presented their resig-
nation. We then listened to the dele
gates report, which was fine.
Next came election of officers, which
resulted as follows: Pres, VIM. Cook;
vice pres, Anthony Bruno; sec'y, Mabel
Smedley; cor. sec'y, Mabel Smedley;
treas, Amenzo Wright; chap, S. B.
Terry; organist and chorister, Mr..
Wright.
Agnes Pryor favored us with fine
recitation entitled, "A Diamond in the
Rough" A recitation by Bruce Bruno,
was good. S. B. Terry was called upon
to make speech and gave an excellent
talk, one which he is noted for and always
willing to give AS it was getting late
we dropped the question box until the
next meeting. Rev. Butler, of Durand
gave us very interesting talk. Music

responded to an encore and sang my

After spending this long and happy
day together, we closed the scene of an
other pleasant meeting until Feb. end,
when we all hope to meet again at the
| home of Mr.. and Mrs. Parsons.

William E. Curtis, the well-informed
and accurate correspondent of the
Chicago Record Herald, says it is the
general opinion among diplomates that
the latest move of Russia in attacking
China for violation of the laws of
neutrality is in the nature of subterfuge
of @ beaten nation to gain strength at
home and for an effect on other nations.
Russia realizes he says, that she has
lost Manchuria, but she will meyer lose
sight of the main purpose nor abandon
her aggressive policy in the east. 1t is
a policy Of centuries-eternal in its
purpose born in the brain of Peter the
Great, and his most precious and i'm
portant legacy to the Romanoff dynasty.
For the protection and the promotion
of that policy, having lost Manchuria,
Russia. evidently proposes to take a
slice from other parts of China, and
has already, according to the telegraph
dispatches, invaded Chinese. Turkestan
and taken possession of Kashgar, one
of the most important cities in the out
lying provinces of China" Appearances
indicate that trouble has only really be-
gun In the east.

Letter to II. c. Sincell

Dear Sir: The easiest business in
this world is dry-goods; the reason is:
your customers want your stuff as
much as YOU want to sell it; they
come-in; you show it and sell it..
That's the whole business, except
your buying the goods.
Devoe comes next. 1t sayes money,
and people like money. They like
somebody else's more than their own;
they like to make it more than to
save it; they like to keep it perhaps
as well as to make it.
Buildings rundown fast, without
paint; poor paint is the same. Devoe
is the means of stopping that Leak
big one. All we've got to do, to
sell Devoe, is to show that a man
saves money by using it.
E d Jewell, Cory, Pa, painted his
house years ago with mixed paint;
IA gallons. Last spring he painted
Devoe; 10 gallons. Saved $15 to $50.
Yours truly,

Gods people went into captivity,
captive already to the witching

them was the Bible and prayer.
By the rivers of Babylon they

means of Daniel. The venerable
prime minister was no more afraid
or ashamed of his religion now
than when, years before, he had
knelt with his window open to-

self of some private interview with
his monarch to lay this great en-
