As Wat Warren Sees It.

Protrsoted meetings are in full
blast all over the country, and we
hope great good will be accom-
plished because more religion is
needed here as elsewhere, and we
want to see the kind that is good
and strong and will last. We hate
to see fellow wear out the knees
of his pants getting religion and
then wear out the seat blaokslind-
ing; that kind of religion that will
do to live won't do to die by; that
lasts through the winter and is
killed by the first fresh breath of
spring but we do love to see that
kind that is lasting, and is shown
in every word aud deed, and en-
dureth all seasons, withstandeth all
temptations and lands one into that
cline where all is sunshine. But
may be we are too harsh on the
short term christians, for it is bet
ter to be good for time aud then
there is chance of some of these
short termers shuffiing off this
mortal coil while in the period of
their goodness.-GlenvilIe Path

Among the charges preferred

candidate giving a country editor
any such munificent sum? Five
dollars is the limit. and then the
candidate expects the editor to
give him $50 worth of advertising
in return. The charge is prepos-
ferrous, for editor Randolph with

be in the orszy house before ten
