Therefore in the temple, of which he
gave the pattern to Moses in the mount
there was but one golden candlestick
one true light giver being thus symbol
izcl but when you come to the New
Testament period you find i'll Revcla-
tion that Jesus is walking among seven
golden candlesticks, thus symbolizing
the many churches that are giving
forth the light which leads men and
women to God. The army which did
the work of saving the union was COM
posed of infantry, cavalry. artillery
and navy. II any one was stirred with
patriotic impulses he had to enlist in
one oil these divisions. so the army of
the Lord is made up of different denom-
nations all having one aim, to glorify
God and save our fellow men III any
one wishes to enroll in that army he
must enlist in one of these fighting
batalions. So select the church whic h
you find most in line with what you
believe, the one which helps you most,
the one in which you are most at home
Select that church, thank God that it
exists, and go to work in it as AN earn
est Soul and you will be blessed and
prospered. John Mac Allister.
Tacoma, Sept. 26-There seems to
be room to say something by those who
have crossed to the west shore that will
go beyond sand and sage brush SO my
time has been on the ships, the sound,
and water front. have been cruising
by steamer OH both sides of the sound
The first one was an eight thousand ton
ship from Liverpool and was not long
in finding my way to the wheel and
compass beneath the flag of my native
country. This is a smooth body OF salt
water that runs every point of the COM
pass and has over two thousand miles
of shore line. and has rise and fall of
about six feet of tide: being to deep for
anchorage in many places. For five
hundred feet the shore is very bold and
but little break. There is heavy timb-
er on all sides, but the eNtravagant way
they are using it and Shipping it out is
beyond the knowledge of many in the
east. was on ship today that was

also one loading for Japan. The sound
is vast sheet of sheltered harbor and
yet the business proper is done at a /
very few places, but they are hustlers
where it is done The water front and
manner of Shipping is very different from
that i'll Chicago as the cargo here is not
taken i'll the bulk, almost everything
in sacks, even coal in many cases. AsI

say there are stumps in all parts and it

feet to the maximum rates have not increased materially.
 In Switzerland, which republic has always, been a good customer or the United States, we shall be subjected to the maximum rates of duty under the new Swiss tariff shortly to be put in force.
 The Merchants Association of New york, after carefully considering the conditions with which our trade is threatened, has adopted the sub)oined resolutions, which we commend to your serious consideration.
 It appears to us that the time has now come when the United States should adopt a policy of reciprocal trade agreements, in accordance with the last words of Ex- President Mckinley, for the purpose of preserving and extend- ing trade and gaining more outlet for our growing agricultural ana manu- featuring products.
 With this end in view we should seek to establish reciprocal trade relation rot only the countries of Europe, put also with our immediate neighbors on on the north and on the south.
 The most striking illustration of the benefits that follow the cultivation or better trade relations by reciprocal tariff reduction can be witnessed in the extI Iaordinary growth of our exports to the isIani of Cuba, which, it is istimat- ed by the bureau of statistics of the de- partmsnt of commerce and labor, will during the ficaI year ending June 30, 1905, reach the total of S3S,000,000, showing a very largo increase, as com- pared with the previous ficial year. and A much larger increase as compared with the fical year antedating the recfp- tocity convention with Cuba. The fact is significant that, whereas our irn- ports from Cuba have increased 33 per cont, our exports have gained 80 per cent, since reciprocity was~ adop- tod.
 The business interest of the United States should take prompt and active steps, both collectively through their trade organizations and individually, to impress upon the President of the United States and his advisers the inn portant necessity that exist for the negotiation of reciprocity treaties with our neighbors and our principal cus- toners abroad, and to urge upon Sena- tors and Representatives In Congress that such reciprocity treaties should Do ratified, in order to preserve our pres ent trade and enlarge It. When once lost or taken from us 1t can not be re- covered except with gret dtfhculty.~
 We trust that we may count upon your cooperation in this movement, and would ask you to inform the Mer- chant Association of New York, of any action you take. We would also ask you to forward copies to us of any letters that you may send to, or receive from, public officials whom you address on the subject.

A fight ensued between the sis ters for the white footgear. NeighboEs complained and Grace was arrested. Mayor Atkins judged the trouble a family affair and discharged the case against Grace. who will buy a pair of white shoes of her own.

The boarding house proprietor ordered him out of the kitchen and the girl swore out a warrant against him. Mayor Atkins fined him $10 for the offense saying that 1t was too common thing for the negro men whom the women are feed ing from the kitchen of the white peo- pie to get mad with them and try to raise a disturbance and he intended to fine heavily everyone that was brought before him.
 John Dexter, an unkempt. greasy looking young negro answered to the charge of being a suspicious character, He looked the part that he was charged with being and fine of s was assessed against him.

TO PURIFY WATER BY


 A new home health promoting affair will be electricity for purifying water
 An exchange says:
 It is probable that electric purifica- ton of drinking water will soon be in- troduced into the home. This method. already used by number of munich pal water works in Germany, is based upon the germ killing effects of ozone, which is cheaply engendered by elec- sricity. If an electric discharge takes place between two glass tubes, one fn- side the other. whose surfaces facing each other are coated with metal. ozone ts developed in the space between the tubes. Electricians have tried in re- cent years to simplify the means of electric ozone development for purify ing water. The ideal apparatus would be one which every housekeeper could put up in the kitchen. and by utilizing the electric current of the common elec- tric light wires, purify every glass of drinking water. In fact, such an ap- paratus seems to have been successful ly made by Mir. Otto. a French engi- neer.
 Tins apparatus Is of very simple con- struction and takes up little space. It consists principally of a small, closed box, the metal cover of which is made conductory with the bottom. In the box is an ozone developer. an interrupt
 
 the ozone. which first has to pass through a cotton-~stopper to free 1t from dust and germs contained in the air, is conducted into the water and mixed herewith. If much ozone has been absorbed the water becomes phos- phorescent in the dark. The most im- portant part of the apparatus is the mixer" action Of which caA be inter rupted at will. The apparatus is cap- able of purifying about sixty gallons of water in an hour, and the cost per hour IS about the same as that of an ordinary incandescent light.
 GTBRALTAR's FIRMNEsS GOING.
 The public is not aware that the great rock of Gibraltar is tumbling down-that its crumbling. rotting masses must be continually bound to- gether with huge patches of masonry and cement
 Yet they who sail past Gibraltar can not fail to notice on the eastern slope of the fortress enormous silver color ed patches gleaming in the sun. These patches. in some cases thirty or forty tar's disintegration. Of thick. strong cement, they keep huge spurs of the cliffs side from tumbling into the sea. Sea captains, cruising in the Medit- terranean. say that Gibraltar has been rotting and crumbling for many years, but that of late the disintegration has gone on at a faster rate than heretofore They say that the stone forming this imposing cliff Is rotten stone and that in a little while the phrase. the strength of Gibraltar" will be mean ngiess.--Exchange
