FEW MEN PRAY, SAYS CARRIER

The Rev. w. o. Carrier, president of
Carroll college at Waukesha, was the
speaker at the weekly meeting for
men at the Young Mems Christian as
ISOLATION in Milwaukee Sunday after
noon. The subject of the talk was
"The Man Who Prayed"
I'm this day of commercial strife we
find but few men who pray" said Mr..
Carrier. Il used to live in Chicago
and when saw the vast throngs of
men who got up in the morning and
after hurried breakfast rush to their
work downtown, felt that not enough
men pray. Many men are too busy to
pray. Some men never pray until they
arc sick and in distress and then they
expect to get help. Others are afraid
to pray under those conditions for fear
that they will appear selfish. We
should pray to God under all condi-
tions. The Lord gave the prayer Our
Father as formula for our supplica-
tions, but person can pray after his
own liking"

Opinions of the Press.

Hudson True Republican, Dem.
When democratic administration re-
covered half a million dollars from
the ex-state treasurers it was done at
the end of strenuously fought lawsuit
ending in the supreme court. No extra
allowance was made until the next
session of the legislature which, by a
special act, awarded R. M Bashford a
sum for his services. No other method
was considered lawful, and it isn't any
more so now.

On account of the basket ball game
last Friday, the debating club dispensed
with the usual program and held a short
business meeting. 1t was decided to
call the society the Lincoln Debating
club. The names of Lincoln, Webster,
Hamilton, Calhoun and Franklin were
proposed, and there was quite spirited
debate over the lives and characters of
the different men.
The program for next Friday evening
is as follows:
Declamation-Bailey Ramsdell.
Debate-Resolved that a student hav-
ing an average class standing of So per
cent. in any study should be exempt
from examinations in that study. AT
firmative, Karl Kraatz, Mark Schol-
field; Negative, Orrie Peterson, Oscar
Brumberg.
Those who came from Grand Rapids
last Friday to attend the basket ball
game are: Erma Johnson, Laura
Drumb, Rena Philleo, Edna Muir, Kate
Kellogg, Vida Kelley, Leonard Voyer,
Charles Nash, Art Podaville, Bert Nc
Donald, Harold Arpin, Henry Beaver,
Lewis Swain, Geo. Odegard, Prof.
Thompson and Prof. Swede.
Orpha Jones entertained the Grand
Rapids boys and girls at her home after
the game Friday evening. A very en-
| joyable time was reported by all pres
ent.
The dancing party given at Castle
hail last Saturday evening was the most
delightful party the club has given.
Mrs. Ploss and Mrs. John Kiefer, Jr.,
fulfilled the duties of chaperon most
admirably. We are now looking for
ward to masque ball to be given
sometime in the near future.
The last high school basket ball game
of this season was played in the high
school gymnasium last Friday evening.
In the first game the H. S. seconds de-
| feated the Y M. &. A. seconds by a
| score of Al to 81. In the second game
the Grand Rapids high school team de-
feated our high school five by score of
% to IL. The first half of the game was
as rough as foot ball, and more so, be-
cause our boys were not permitted to
play that kind of game, but had to
endure all the rough playing of their
opponents. During the last half, how
ever, the referee was more strict and a
good deal of the roughness was done
away with. The Grand Rapids boys
appeared TO outclass our boys in their
fast team work, but we can not vouch
for this as the Wausau boys could not
stand on their feet long enough to catch
a glimpse of the ball. The crowd OF
| spectators was so intensely interested
in the games that the contest had to be
stopped several times in order to restore
quiet. The lineup of each team was as
follows:

WAUSAU MEN INTERVIEWED.

at Milwaukee hotels last week, were
interviewed by reporters of that city
and had the following to say:
Judge W. G. S1lverthorn, who
was in Milwaukee on Wednesday,
was interviewed by a reporter oil
the Milwaukee Sentinel, and, be-
ing in reminiscent mood, gave
out the following, which includes
an interview between the Judge
and ex-Gov. Seofield:
"The most valuable treasures
which men can accumulate in this
world are the friendships they
have made,o said Judge W. G.
Silverthorn of Wausau, who is a
guest at the Hotel Pfister.
1.-THE older one gets the more he
appreciates this fact. 1t is be-
cause of this that | get so much
enjoyment out of occasional visits
to Milwaukee, for I am always
sure to meet one or more old
friends here who recall to mind
pleasant incidents of the past. l
intend to spend an hour or two at
the Old Settlers club, for [ am a
member of that organization. al
though it is so long since l have
been a resident of Milwaukee that
nearly every one except myself
has forgotten it. Our family lived
here the first winter that we came
to Wisconsin, while my father was
out in the wilds of Jefferson county
preparing a home for US, where
my boyhood days were spent. [
remember one time that we drove
into Milwaukee in a wagon to
attend state fair, and at which /
heard speech delivered by tall,
gaunt, homely looking young man
from Illinois which made a deep
impression upon me. That was
several years before the war, and
there are still passages of that
speech that | can recall. | did not
know as [ listened to the speaker
that day that for the first and last
time | was hearing lwords uttered
by one who was destined to win
undying fame in the annals of
American history. That man was
Abraham Lincoln"
"How do you do, judge 2"
This came from former Governor
Scofield, who came up and warmly
shook hands with the man who
had been his opponent for the
gubernatorial Office in 1896.
II am glad to see you, governor.
1t reminds me of the year we were
campaigning against one another.
[ will never forget my reception at
Marinette. When | stepped off
the train there [ could see down
the platform ahead OF me a man
coming forward with outstretched
hand. 1t was the governor, and
he took me in hand, telling the
Democratic committee men there
that he would take charge of me
and guarantee my safe delivery
at the proper time," volunteered
the Judge to the other members of
the party, "and then drove off
with me-"
"Well, responded the former
governor, "you certainly evened
matters up with me during the
same campaign, even if you were
not at home when / visited Wau-
sau. Your wife met me at the
depot and that night sat upon the
stage at our meeting, and then to
cap the climax, sent me up a bou
quet of American beauty roses.
That was one of the most pleasur-
able incidents experienced by me
during the time l was in public
life"

of Wausau at the St. Charles. at is

This is the season of the year when
the farmers up our way add to the size
of their bank accounts" said William
Lilieqvist, Wausau alderman, who is
at the Republican. INSTEAD of eating
up in the winter months what they
have earned in the summer nearly all
of them have some timber left on their
farms and put this in now, aud at the
present prices it does not take many
trees to yield S100 We now have
about two and one-half feet of snow.
AS far as the farmers are concerned,
the snow helps them, once the roads
are broken out, and they are all busy
now. The loggers are the ones who
are suffering because of the snow and
lack of frost. milwaukee Sentinel

WHAT THE MOON SAW LAST NIGHT

WHAT THE MOON SAW LAST NIGHT
Con mild and beautiful evening in
October the pale, half-grown moon
shone brightly through the starlit skies
and looked calmly down upon the
world below.
1t looked upon small, white farm
house cestled snugly between two hills
which protected it from fierce wind
storms that swept over them. Peeking
through one of the curtained windows
it saw a mother rocking her sweet
faced baby to sleep by the side of a
large, old-fashioned fireplace, where a
cheerful log fire blazed and cracked as
it roared up the chimney, making weird
shadows dance upon the opposite wall.
Sitting with his back to the fire. place to
get the light of candle Pickering upon
the mantle was the father reading the
Farm Journal; while the shepherd dog
lay out-stretched by the side of the fire.
place with his head between his paws,
blinking sleepily at the old tom cat
who, curled in the rocking chair, was
purring softly to himself
just then a curtain-like cloud yelled
the face of the moon and it saw no
more of the doings in the little white
farmhouse that night"
The above is the product of an entire
seventh grade working in collab ration
and is illustrative of the language work
being done in the Wausau schools.

Women Who wear wen.

II Is astonishing how great o change =
few years Of married life often make In
the appearance and disposition Of many
women. The freshness, the charm, tho
brilliance vanish like the bloom from a
peach which Is rudoly handled. The
matron Is only a dim shadow, a faint echo
Of the charming maiden. There r two
reasons for this change, Ignorance and
neglect. Few young appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain Is robbing the cheek
Of It's freshness and tho form Of It's
fairness.
AS surely as tho general hoalth suffers
when there is arrangement OF tho health
OF the delicate womanly organs, 30 surely
when these organs are established In
health the face and form at once witness
TO h fact In renewed comeliness. Nearly
a million women have found health and
happiness In the use Of DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription. It makes weak wom-
en- strong and sick women well. Ingredi-
ents on l~abel-contains no alcohol or
harmful habit-forming drugs, made

inal roots most highly recommended by

eral schools Of practice for the cure Of
woman's peculiar ailments.
For nursing mothers, or for those broken
down In health by too frequent bearing OF
children, also for the expectant mothers,
TO prepare the system for the coming Oh
baby and making It's advent easy and
almost painless, there Is no medicineiouite
