GrsWth Of Que Church.

AT the annual meeting of the
Congregational church building
society, the reports of the officers
showed that over 100000 was
expended in building new
churches in the United States by
the society last year. The record
was regarded a good one and
showed that some progress had
been made over the preceding
year. The directors of the soci.
ETY., however, decided that it was
not enough or in keeping with
the rapidly growing influence of
the denomination andunanimously
recommended that not less than
one-half million dollars be expend-
ed IN the current year for new
churches and new parsonageS.
The report shows that there are
yet over 500 unhoused Conrgega-
tlonal churches in the country.
No less than fifty of these are To-
Gated in North Dakota. More
than $500 churches in the coun-
try have no regular homes for the
pastors. Churches in thirty-fve
different states were aided by the
society last year and assistance
was rendered to one hundred and
thlrty-fve parsonages, of which
eighty-iiye were located in the
Middle West. where the church
has made wonderful strides in the
past year. During the year the
society received from all sources
S275, 27S, more than S6S,OOO in
excess of the sum received in the
preceding year. The total appro-
priations for the year amounted to
$202, 1877.

Heres a bit OF philosophy
viii h has drifted about until its
identity has been lost, but it's
good just the same: You're a
great little wife, ana don't know

And as he spoke he put his arms
about her and kissed her, and she
forgot all the cares in that
moment. And forgetting all, she
sang as she washed the dishes,
and she sang as she made the beds,
and the song was heard next door,
and a woman here caught the re-
frain, and sang also, and two
homes were happier because he
had told her that sweet old story,
the story of the love of a husband
for a wife. As she sang the
butcher boy who called for the or
der heard it, and went out whist
ling on his journey. and the world
heard the whistle, and one man
hearing it, thought. Here is a
lad who loves his work, a lad who
loves his play, a lad happy and
contented." And because she
sang her heart was mellowed, and
as she swept about the back door,
the cool air kissed her on each
cheek, and she thought of a poor
old woman she knew, and a little
basket went to that home, with a
quarter for crate or two of wood.
SO because he kissed her, and
praised her, the song came, and
the influence went out and out"

Bad FAMlLY Xix UP.
2siG EitGi Gets Badly ReaiGR up Sat.
tUFday About NO0R.

A little trouble between Pete
Eitei and John Shriwise at Hois-
ingJon Saturday will likely re-
suit in couple of criminal pros
ecutiOnS in district court. Mrs.
Eitel, a sister of Shriwise, and
her husband, above mentioned,
have been having some trouble,
and she has gone to her parents
home. They have a daughter, 70
years old, with whom Mr.. Eitel
tried to converse over the phone.
The Shriwise's refused to let the
girl talk to her father, whereupon
he father started out to the home
to see the girl. He arrived there,
which is Just at the edge of the
city, a few minutes after y noon.
He was met at the gate by John
Shriwise, and according to Eiters
story was dealt a blow over the
head with a piece of iron. This
partly stunned him, and was again
struck across the stomach with
the iron bar, which smashed his
watch, and injured his stomach.
This stopped any attempt OF
Etiel'S to see the girl. and he
started back to town, but was un.
able to reach there, and was later
found and taken to town, where
his injuries were dressed. The
Shriwise people say that Mr.. Eitel,
when he found his way to the
house blocked, drew a razor, and
accordingly have sworn out a war
rant against him for assault, while
he has sworn one ont against John
Shriwise for assault and battery
with intent to kill. The injured
man is in rather bad shape, but
thus far, no serious compli.
cations are feared.

"BAGE TO TIE FiRH."
AaRghGR Have Learned By Bitter Ex-
peFienee Htaf This Cry Means.

IN a recent issue OF the Phil
adelphia Ledger appeared a long
editorial upon the crazy idea Of
ssmany people wanting to leave
a farming community and crowd
into the larger cities. The article
in part says:
To thOs9 who have tried the
harsh experiences of the city,
and in whose memories there
fingers, perhaps a faint, idealized
picture, some vision of the old
home in the country, the cry of
Back to the farml' represents a
hope. The tendency to rush to
the city excites the smazement
even of the one who at an earlier
day had answered the same call.
The city offers to a certain men,
tality a reward more giittering
than the country holds, a political
and social power of which the
country has no knowledge. Nor
does the country need to regret
this. 1t has its own rewards, and
they are better than gold. More
over, the personal failure in the
city is a tragedy. Beggary haunts
the crowded street. Yicobeckons
into the shadows.

A GREAT bend GIRLS SUCCESS
Hasa Lucrative Business In Kansas
CitV As Decorator.

The Kansas City World of Jan.
29th publishes a photograph Of
Mrs. Ada Griffith, under the head
ing Successful Kansas City. Busi-
ness Woman. Mrs. Griffith was
formerly Miss Ada Weltmer, SIS
ter OF d A. ana T. q. WeiImer,
and grew to womanhood in this
city. Concerning Mrs. Griffith
the World says:
When Mrs. Ada Griffith opened
her studio in the Altman building
she bad only six pieces of china to
show customers.
She began TO study four years
AGO and was fortunate enough to
get in with a teacher who was
willing TO give lessons to some
one who would assist her in the
studio part of the day. 1t took
time to learn, but the young pupil
made rapid progress and when an
other teacher decided to 90 abroad
for few months rest she left
Mrs. Griffith in charge. This was
her start in business. She. organi-
zed a class and began to take
orders for work.
Mrs. Griffith now has about Is
pupils and all the outside orders
she can attend to. She makes
more than expenses from her
kiln in which she fires china for
other artists. Her speciality is
china painting and water cOlors.
Before taking up painting Mrs.
Griffith was a musician. She
spent a great deal of time and
money in vocal study and sang in
local church choirs for several
years.

A Story From BgFRe9.

The spirit of Herod's sister-in-
law seems to live forever; at any
rate, it is still pretty vigorous
among the head hunting Dyaks of
Dutch Borneo. Hathnayeng, a
tribesman, had been persuaded by
Dutch missionaries to abandon the
practice Of head hunting. He re-
manned true to his promise, and
for time led quiet life. Re-
Gently, however, he fell in love
with a Dyak maiden. The girl,
although returning his passion,
disdained his offer of marriage,
because he no longer INDUCED in
the ancient practice of cutting off
and bringing home the heads of
the enemies of the tribe.
Hathnaveng, goaded by the taunt
of the girl, who told him to dress
in women's clothes in future, as
he no longer had the coruage OF
man, quilted the village and
remained away quite a consider
able time.
When he returned ne entered
his sweetheart'S hut, carrying a
sack on his shoulders. He opened
it, and four human heads rolled
upon the bamboo floor. At the
sight of the trophies the girl at
once took him back into her favor
and flinging her arms around his
neck, embraced him passionately.
You wanted heads" declared
her lover; Il have brought them.
Do you not recognize theml''
Then, to her horror, she saw
they were the heads of her father,
her mother, her brother and of a
young man who was Hathnaveng's
rival for her affection. Hathnaveng
was Immediately seized by some
of the tribesmen, and by way ,oi
punishment was placed in a small
bamboo structure such as is com.
monty used by the Dyaks for pigs
and allowed to starve to DEATH

Eill Benefit the Railroads.

Ihe EmpOria Gazette ola recent
date very pointedly says:
The railroads IN the end will
profit by this organization OF
Kansas business men, because in
the end there will be a definite
understanding of what is fair and
what is unfair, and according to
railroad men themselves, they ask
nothing unfair. If they arc
horest in this contention they
should invite the Kansas league tC
organize, and stop their paid
newspapers who are sneering al
the organization. The railroad,
will be much better off dealing
with this kind of an organization
than with a. uprising of the rag
tag-and-bob-tall of the com.
