KINDLlNGL LIGHTS
In INDIA.
An Address Delivered Blu Mrs.
N. G. Thomson, of Paris,
Ku.. AT the District
C. w. B. N.
Convention In Mt. Sterling,
Ku., April 70, 1905.

The spirit of the age, the genius
of the Universe, the pledge of the
"New Time" is being fulfilled in
the promise, SIN the last days, l
will pour out my spirit on all flesh"
Some one has said that, Cali crea-
ton is on the march; stars are re-
volving; the dead crust of the
earth feels the necessity of change;
the vegetable kingdom is moving
on ward and upward; the animal
kingdom, too, keep step, uncon-
Acious of the impelling cause; and
MAN, as if he heard the music,
: Nrowsily, and afar off, joins the
strange procession, and struggles
onward and upward, marching with
unseen banners to some great
enter prise. Tine Nineteenth Gen.
fury was filled with great and
noble deeds, wrought by the hands
of man and the Twentieth Cen
tury, with its great discovery !:
woman, bids us make ready for a
devine invasion. 1t is to our gen.
Grafton that God comes, pouring
out his heart in tidal waves, max
ing each man sage, each hand
maiden a prophet of better days
and higher things. No where do
we see this more fully exemplified
than in the work done by the G..
w, B. NJ, and in no other country
have we such varied and vast OPP
portunities, as we have in PARKWAY
India; and we thank God that the
time has come, when we can see the
kindling lights of Gods divine
mercy in the Orient.
After working for many years in
in Easl, DR.. Geo. F. Pentecost said,
81 have never had more than one
conviction, India is the key to the
foreign missionary problem of the
East; it is the keystone in the
arch to the new christian world,
and TO take 1t for Christ, will be to
signalize the overthrow of heath
enism."
Every c. w. B. NJ. woman knows
something of our work in India,
and it will only be necessary for
me to give few general facts to
have you more fully realize that
the light OF Gods love has been
but kindled in the heart of the
Orient.
We began our work in India in
1882, when A missionaries were
I Mt across the waters, and by
prayer and supplication to God A
stations were first permanently
established, Belaspur, 1885; Deog-
inur, 1886; Bina. 1891; Mahoba,
1895, and since then we have estab-
iished A new stations, Pendra
Roads, opened in 1900, Calcutta,
1900; Rath, 1902, and Maudha in
November, 1908, making total of
s missionary stations, with %
missionaries, assistant missiona-
ries, SO native helpers. ID schools
with 70S pupils, A Orphanages with
597 orphans, 10 bungaloes, 4
Hospitals with about 1890 patients
and upwards of $50 Zenanas or
homes open to us.
The work in character is Evan
gelistic. The gospel unto all the
world is the message of authority
to our missionaries, and then our
aim in life is to please Christ, and
to bring souls into his service. To
further this aim regular church
services are held, with Sunday
Schools, Christian Endeavor and
Prayer Meetings.
Another important work is the
village work. By wayside wells,
and halting places, in the fields,
when the people thresh out their

Politics and the Civil Service are

Cortelyou instructed the postmaster
at that place to take the following
action:
Inform William A. Evans that
it is the opinion of the department
that if he desires to retain his pO-

This action is based on the re-
port received by CortelYou from the
CIVIL Service Commission giving
the results of their investigation Of
conditions in the Louisville post
office.

xuss1A,s PRAYER.

"God of the Monarch. hear me-mine Is
woeful case;
Hearken and heed my crying-Death is the
foe / face!
Death to the things l stand for, death 10
the thing called Me
Hear as l cry in terror up to the strength
of Thee"
But the God who heard
Was a God unstirred
BY the man-oppressor's cry;
And the monarch's prayer
That was uttered there
Rang through a responseless sky.
"God of the shackles. hear me-God OF the
noisome mine
Hear as 1 cringe before Thee, craving Thy
help Divine.
Mine is the desperation born of an utter
need
Hearken to mel need Thee more thah the
backs that bleed!'
But the God above
Is u Goo of love,
And He pitied the peoples plight;
While the bad prayer fell
To the neither hell,
Where ruleth the Beast of Night.
"God of the bird untrammeled. God of the
bloom and bee,
God of the broken shackle, set all Thy
children free!'"
This is the supplication sobbed through
rain of tears
Such are the supplications God in His
mercy hears.

Effects of Prosperity.

In the six years of the country,s
greatest prosperity, from 1897 to 1903,
average prices of breadstuffs advanced
65 per cent, meats 23.1 per cent, dairy
and garden products SOL per cent. and
clothing 24.1. All these were products
of the farmer and stockman who
profited more than any other class of
the community by these advances.
The miner benefited 42.1 per cent. by
that advance in the average price of
metals. The only decrease in the
average prices of commodities in that
period was in railway freight rates,
which decreased from 1913 per ton-mile
in 1897 to 1853 in 1908, loss of "A
per cent. The report of the Interstate
Commerce Commission shows that the
average increase in the pay of rail
road employees in that period was 9
trifle above 8.5 per cent.

GO IN FOR EXPENSIVE MUSIC
Los Angeles Man Has Piano Made for
Him at Cost of $1O,O0O-or-
gan Cost $4,000.

Los Angeles, GAIA piano that, so far
as known, is the costliest in the world
has been placed in the music room OF
Edward L. Doheny's handsome home
in Chester place. 1t is a concert grand,
the case fashioned in Louis XIV. style,
and heavily enameled in 14-carat gold
leaf.
More than two years elapsed between
placing the order in New York and its
delivery in Los Angeles. The instru-
ment is so exquisitely tuned that its
bell-nke clearness and depth of mel
ody would distinguish it instantly among
a score of fine pianos. 1t cost $4,000.
The case is the work of Edward Dow
dali. of New York, noted as master
of decorative art. The face of the lid
is adorned with an allegorical scene
Apollo, with his harp, surrounded by
goddesses and cupids, central among
them being the face of Doheny's son
and heir, from studies made when the
boy was two years of age.
A local factory has about completed
for Mr.. and Mrs Doheny $4,000 or
gan, the pipes of which will be gold
enameled, like the piano. An electrical
attachment will make possible the play
ing of both organ and piano from either
the first or second floor of the house.
These attachments viii be connected
also with "organ chimes" on the open
staircase and an echo" above the stairs.

A 48O ACRE FARM YIELDS rs

What Mercer County (ohio) Farmer
Received from One Years
Crop.

Extracts from an interesting letter
from P. H. Rynhard, OF Starbuck, Man
itoba, Canada, gives an excellent idea
of the prosperity of those who have
gone from the United States to Can
ada. He says:
Il bought, August, 1908, 480 acres
of land, paying $4,000 for it. We
threshed 2,973 bushels of wheat and
between 1900 and 1900 bushels OF
oats and barley from 200 acres. But
part of the wheat went down before
filling, and was not harvested except
for hay. The crop was worth at
threshing time $4,000. Besides 100
acres laying idle, except a timothy
meadow, which is not included in this
estimate. Counting the value of the
product and the increase of value of
land will pay me more than 25 per
cent. on the investment. Two broth
ers in the same neighborhood bought
160 acres each six years ago. They
have not done a single thing to this
land except to fence it and break and
cultivate about one-half of it. Har-
vested last year % bushels wheat per
acre. This year 81 bushels per acre
They can get any day SIS per acre.
These are only few of many hum
dreds of such chances. 1t looks like
Boosting, but truth is justifiable, and
the world ought to know it, especially
the home-Seeker. / know of quite a
few farmers that have made fortunes
in from 10 to 20 years, retired with
from $4,000 to $100 900.
Writing concerning another district
in the Canadian West, S. L. Short says:
Dear Sir:-I have to inform you
that I have just returned from the
Carrot River Country in Saskatche-
wan, where 1 located land of the very
finest black vegetable loan, which
am proud of, and will move in the
spring. Farmers are still blowing
there. A mild climate and beautiful
country to behold. Cattle are fat and
running outside. Wood and water
good. Saw oats weighing AZ pounds
to bushel. Potatoes large and we'll
ripened; also wheat that brought there
50 cents. The country exceeded my
expectations. Saw oats in stock,

WI E met at hotel, and thought her
w one of the most charming women
had ever seen.
Refined and almost representative,
she struck me as being a woman of
breeding and distinction. Yet on the
few occasions when, as our acquaint-
ance ripened, visited her at her smart
and elegantly appointed fiat, felt an
instructive aversion to the friends and
acquaintance l met there.
Of her people she seldom spoke-hec
parents were dead, she told me, and her
husband was abroad, but might be home
again at any time.
She was always exquisitely dressed
in the latest fashion and money seemed
abundant with her. She was an adept
shopper, quick at knowing what she
wanted, and quicker still at seeing it,
and was, very glad when she offered to
pilot me through the difficult mazes of
the winter sales.
I am not possessed of large dress
allowance, and my wardrobe for the
coming season depends somewhat on
my successful purchases in sale times
Mrs. Vereker was just the guide to help
me through. She possessed such perfect
taste and felt quite safe in her hands
We sat one evening arranging what we
were to buy.

ker. Il went the first three days my
