would have been delighted to

from Iowa. BY the way, we

of Louisiana are simply grand,
magnolia and live oak especial
/ ly. The Spanish moss grows
all over them and hangs down
so as to make a very pictur-
esque effect. A gentleman
told me this morning that
some of the negroes gathered
this moss from the trees and
buried it a week until it be-
came black and then they made
mattresses out of it and they
sold for good money. We learn
something new about this coun-
try nearly every minute. This
morning we passed Fort Adams,
the place where the incident
occurred which involved the
imam without a country He
was stationed at this fort and
later on was tried for compile

on and during the trial he be-
came so vexed he cried, I'D
my country; d my flag" So
they. put him on a boat and
just kept changing him from
one to another until he died,
so he never saw even a paper
or anything else from his coun-
try. So the story of the imam

fact. The notices of it are in
the government offices at

picturesque looking place. Aunt

"The Motivity of an Idea"

"a prophet is not without
honor, save in his own coun-
try The Presbyterian church
Tuesday night should have been
packed to hear Prof. Beveridge's
lecture upon the above subject.
1t was one of the most instruct
i've and interesting as we'll as
amusing at times, that has
ever been delivered within the
corporate limits of Missouri
Valley, delving as it did into
the metaphysical and esoteric
in its philosophy and withal so
plain that the young ones as
we'll as the grownups were
good listeners. There must be
something in the blood, for it is
conceded that Senator Bever-
idge, who is a cousin of Profess
sor Beveridge, is the most
scholarly orator in the senate
today. The speaker has that
quiet demeanor on the plat
form which is considered one
of the admirable features of
Bryan's oratory, and like Bry-
an, he has the faculty of maxi
ing every one before him inn
agine that it is to him he is
speaking. 1t was certainly a
very learned lecture and those
not there have cause for regret.

larger stock is kept in its ware
rooms here than would otherwise
be possible thus giving local Gus
toners the advantage of selecting
from as great a number and variety
as are kept in stock by the piano
stores of the largest cities in the
state. By ordering in large guam
titles freights are kept down and
consequently prices and probably
