dent of Sioux Falls college, with a
polished and energetic address on

tional Force The Sunday school is
an established element in the educa-
tional life OF the individual. The
book and the subjects taught in it
make the Sunday school a great edu-
cational force. DR.. Jorden made a
most earnest plea for a revival OF the
memorizing Of the scriptures.
The committee on resolutions rec
commended the following as essential
to the best results Of Sunday school
work: i. Teacher training classes.
Q. Temperance lessons. 3. Pastors
classes for the instruction Of young

Snfety Fly Paper.

Preparations are being made in

Improvement in fly paper which, 1t is

this the corners of the sheet are scored

Thursday Evening Session:

There was a very good audience

Thursday evening. Several of the
delegates had already gone home, hut
there was an excellent local attend

Wilkinson conducted the devotional
exercises.
Mrs. Bryner brought first hand
word concerning Bible Lands and
Customs, she having recently visited
the holy land in connection with the
Worlds Sunday School Convention.
She made the familiar scenes to live
again before the minds eye. Pal

Of the convention. 1t was entitled
"The Whole Round World in the
Bible" The bible, he said is neither
outworn nor thoroughly known. 1t
is primarily the guide OF life. The
bible is the foundation Of science and
literature. The germs Of the sciences
of biology, zoology, botany, Chemistry
are there. Our great poets and nov
el!sts have been dependent upon it.
The bible touches our everyday life
and speech as no other book in the
world does. It's great power and
value lies in the fact that it is the
truth. The address was a master
piece from a scholarly and literary
standpoint and showed painstaking
work OF the part OF Dr.. Tllden.
At tie close OF the address parting
words were spoken to the convention
by the chairman and by the general

An odd meantime custom.

A unique wedding custom prevails in
Manchuria. The bride and her attend
ants, all mounted on stills, proceed
through the main streets of the village
to the domicile of the groom, who
meets the procession and conducts it
to the place where the ceremony is to
be performed. He and his friends are
also on stills. Social prominence is in
dicated not by richness of attire, but
by the height of the stills Worn by the
assembled guests. The higher the rank
of the welded pair the loftier the stills

the contracting parties are of differing
social standing the effect is more than
usually ludicrous,

E;s.n Terry snnhhel.

rical and -tistic world is the refusal
of the Lyrcun Woman's club to elect
Ellen Ter, to ordinary membership
The Refused is ostenSibly grounded on
the rule that original work in letters is
the essential qualification, but Ellen
Terry has done far more original work
even in letters than 90 per cent of the
members. The real objection is to the
admission of actresses, whose incur.
sion might alter the character of the
club. Mrs, Humphry Ward and Mrs

sible for Ellen Terry's exclusion.

rne uenor,s Revenge.

In a comic opera company which
played in Washington once there was
a prima donna who managed, in one
way or another, to offend the tenor.
Now, the prima donna's great song
was sung With only herself and the
tenor on the stage. On the night when
he decided that his hour for revenge
had come he strolled down to the foot
lights as the lady began her song, gaz-
ed out into the audience and yawned
enormously. A yawn is the most in
sectious thing in the world. Smallpox
isn't a circumstance compared to it..
BY the end of the first verse the prima
donna was looking out over lowered
footligllts Mt a packed house, and the
packed house was one solid yawn. The
sand bag and the AK ire not mans only
weapons of vengeance. = Washington

FREE IF IT FAILS.
Druggist w. w. Parker Says He Does
Not Charge Anything for Vtnol U"-
less 1t Gives Satisfactory Results.

When asked by reporter OF the GOLD
LEAF how he could make such broad
offor in regard to any medicine, Mr..
Parker replied:
If VinOl were a patent or secret prep
aration it would be another thing, but it
is not, everything it contains is named
on the label.
Vinol is simply the up-to-date form OF
administering cod liver oil: which for
centuries has been recognized as the
grandest of all bodybuilding agents for
wasted human strength and vitality,
and during the last five years we have
seen it produce such grand results that
we are now willing to back it with any
kind of guarantee.
In Vinol we have simply done away
with the useless, system -clogging Oil and
have given to the people all the medici-
nal, body building elements OF cod liver
oil in a highly concentrated and delicious
ly palatable form, and we have never
sold in our store medicine of more cur
ative and strengthening value than
Vinol, and if the people of Henderson
only realized it's value we would not
have clerks enough in our store to sup
ply the demand for it. In natural man
ner Vinol tones up the digestive organs,
makes rich red blood and creates strength.
We can only ask the people OF Henderson
to try it on our guarantee. W. W. Par
ker. Druggist.

What the South Needs.
Atlanta Constitution.

Atlanta COHstItueo'i.
Our newspaper brethren to the
North and westward are daily giving
liyelier evidences of friendliness and
perspicuity regarding both political
and industrial conditions south OF
Mason and Dixon's line. No newspa-
Der appreciates this clarifying view
noint more sincerely than the Con-
stitutiOn. We have had occasion to
defend the South in the days when
tolerance and understanding had not
reached SO mature a stature, hence
it is a source of abiding qualification
that we are nowadays called upon
acknowledge bouquets oftener than
to parry criticisms. -,
A case in point is supplied by the
following extract from the Plttsburg
Dispatch. With a few reservations
we shall be inclined to class its senti-
ments as among the most sensible
spoken on this topic in some weeks:
Multiplying Indications point to an
early awakening OF the South. The pro-
iect to people vast areas in Texas with
immigrants is taking tangible form, whiie
the recent visit OF the President to the
cotton belt cannot but attract unusual
attention to a section that has in meas
ure been neglected. The possibilities OF
the South are almost without measure
It's principal need is the Drawn and brain
requisite to bring from the soil the best
If can give. Only a short time ago an
appeal went up for 500, 900 workers for
the cotton fields and the cotton mills and
it has not been met If it is possible to
divert the trend of immigration from the
cOngested communities OF the North the
South will have wOrkmen in abundance.
There may be failures in the experiments
of colonization. but there will also De
successes. and in the end the desired re-
suit will be attained.
Our chic; quarrel with this expires
sion is one of amiable protest. The
Dispatch does not give the South
| credit for the strenuous efforts beng
made by it's energetic commercial
bodies and enterprising railroads to
supply the very deficiencies it notes
The South, as a unit and in its IN
tegral states. has Drawn of the high
est class; it's supply of brains is also
plentiful and Of the most effectua
type. Otherwise, this section could
not have made the industrial prog
ress which is the marvel OF a marvel
Gus age and a marvellous country.
What the South needs is more
Drawn and more brain in addition tt
that which it already possesses il
fee simple. We realize the truth OF al
the nice things said by the Dispatcl
