= "ls II Well with the chiId?" This
was the text which supplied Dr.
Smiley with his theme last night, the
words being from the story OF the
Shunammite woman as told In
Kings, ith chapter. The sermon was
forclble and touching appeal to
parents and teachers to make the
spiritual life OF the children upper
most In their training, The speaker
alluded to the tendency 10 trust the
religious growth OF children to
chance, to the possible happy accident
that some spiritual influence or as
sociation might happen to bring to
the growing soul the knowledge OF
its religious nature and duty, the par.
ents meanwhile almost wholly reg.
lecting the solemn responsibility OF
cultivating the child's religious facul-
ties. He appealed to the fact OF the
delicate susceptibility OF childhood to
the truths and duties of its immortal
nature. and showed how on the other
hand the neglect OF this impressible
period caused the child TO drift into
religious Inconsistencies and to alb
sorb the vulgarity and sinfulness OF
Goddess surroundings. We shudder
at any exposure of the little ones to
dangers which main or torture or
kill the body, yet heedlessly leave the
soul to disfiguring and death by
malignant enemies to its eternal life
DR.. Smiley cited instances showing
how, in the purest surroundings, little
children manifest sinful tendencies
which reveal the need, even in child
hood at its best, of the new heart
created by the Holy Spirit; and he
forcefully pleaded that the child old
enough TO know how TO do wrong
is old enough to feel and respond to
the appeal of purity and truth and
duty AS learned of Jesus Christ, the
friend and teacher of the little ones.
1t is no unnatural life or experience
to which Jesus calls the children, but
simply the normal life Of a child
whose inherent religious instincts are
natrally deuevloped by the appeal to
its heart of the beauty and love Of
Jesus Christ as its personal Friend
and Savior How warped and de-
formed indeed, is the life Of the
child which has not had this eternal
part of its being called into vital
action by the knowledge OF Christ.
The preacher related convincing in
cidents in his own experience to show
how easily and naturally little ch!i-
dren comprehend the duty of loving
loyalty to Christ, and of the tested
genuineness Of their spiritual convic-
tiOns and decisions. He told the story
Of his own surprise when his own
little bov, whom he had thought of
as being outside the appeal os bis
own preaching and invitations TO ac-
cept the Savior. came at the close
of the sermon one day TO acknowledge
as his own Savior the Christ whom
he has ever since loved and followed.
The whole discourse was porer;rl
presentation of Christ's words. Take
heed that We despise not one of these
little ones"
DR.. Smiley will creach tomorrow
morning at the opera house at IL
o'clock, when the sermon will be ap.
propriate to Memorial Day. The vet
erans will attend the service and will
be supported by several other lodges
and by the cavalry company, troop A,
under the command of Major Rankin.
The general public is heartily invited
to attend the service.

Better Days for Russia and
Her People

81. Petersburg, April 25.--"My VIII re-
garding tho convocation OF representa-
tIves Of the people is answering and
the minister Of the interior Is making
every effort for It's speedy realization"
Emperor Nicholas received in audi
euce at Tsarkoe-se Sunday the mar
shall of the nobility of Kostroma gov
eminent Of middle Russia, and directed
that tho above message be communi-
Gated 20 the nobility of kostrOma. The
message evidently was designed 10 be
published 10 quiet the fears Of those
who are impatient at the delays and
who have grown skeptical Of the fulfill
mcnt of the promises contained In the
imperial rescript IL Is very significant
THAT the emperor used the words con
vocation of representatives. of the peo-
ple,' thus Going beyond the expression
employed the rcscrpt and setting az
rest AN doubt ns TO his meaning. The
Novoe Nremya halls the new assurance
with much satisfaction, saying:
These words Will spread over Russia
Ike a great consolation. They will
tranquilze the yearnings Of all classes
of society, even whore hope was being
crushed by impatIence and under the
influence Of the ridicule heaped from
certain quarters on Russian represent
tation,' and where it was ironically pre-
dicted that the representatives, would
never be convoked The imperial words
breathe a firm resolution 10 put into ef-
feet and not simply 10 consent TO the
important reforms in spite OF the NAL
ignant voices which threw doubt on his
majesty's intentions"
The Moscow Gazette published the
emperor's statement under the double
eagle and said;

cease their ieremiads against the con-
vocation Of representatives. OF the peo-
pie"
