Home Improvements.

Many Of our people are prosperous ana

houses or making important additions to
their homes. Among those who are MAKING
notable improvements are:

Is This q Time Of Peace or War.

seem to shock the public conscience. A large

or course neither the Governor nor any
newspaper intends to make any such false
impression, but We think the negro should be
impI essed as much with the enormity OF bis

seeks vengeance.
There Is no need for all this violence, and
no friend of either race should stir up strife
The races have lived together profftably and
peaceably for long time and there is no
good reason why the advantageous relations
should not continue TO exist. We need the
negroes and they need us.
We have had enough OF disturbance. We
have enough ofanimosity and distrust. We
want peace. And let us ell rest awhile. Let
negroes do nothing to excite III feeling. and
let white men do nothing to ipJure them.

Getting Things Of the Bargain Go un.

In our churches last Sunday morning II
may have been that long winded prayers
sailed high up IN the air, without special
appeal to strengthen any poor miserable sim
ner's feeble effort to do the right.
It may be that no petition went up to the
Throne Of Grace, asking for that wisdom and
that guidance W hich is necessary TO restrain
the heart and 10 Keep the mind from SHINING.
IT. may be that the Good Lord and Father
of Us all, was not petitioned 10 inspire the
blacks with the will and the manhood to re.
strain their passions and 10 control their
actions In such a way as TO make their con.
duct conform the usages OF good society
while recognizing or obeylng the divine law.
1t may be that the Giver OF every good and
perfect gift was not asked to SO control the
passions Of the whites that they might
not offend either the human or the divine
law in the existing race prejudice.
It may be that the Great Head OF the
Church was not petitioned to send peace ol
mind and security Of person to all those who
may be In any way distressed in mind OF
body.
1t may be that the visiting brethren, ol
even wayward sons, we're not specifically
welcomed into the sanctuary which had beer
erected and dedicated to the worship of Him
who first loved US. and made all OF us her'
to an Inheritance in value beyond price IL
gold.
1t may be that no poor, weak. struggling
heart, received encouragement to greater
effort or greater strength in striving tor thu
mastery over the sins or the weakness
which 30 often overcome the best efforts.
But 1t would be safe 10 suggest that th'
righteous were thankful for everything tina
could be enumerated, with the assurance o.
intimation on their part that all the othe
good things which might remain OF
the bargain counter would be accepted by u
with thanks,-without desiring or offering L
yield any sort OF acceptable service. Ant

quests were all Of the Lord, will
