SATURDAY EVENING. FEB. 10. 1906.

The FACULTY OF Depauw University,
at Greencastle, Indiana, the Oldest
Methodist institution of learning 10 the
West, has dropped the study of the
Bible from the list of required subjects
and placed it in the elective class. This
institution was organized and has been
sustained by Me'hodists throughout the
country as an adjunct to the church, and
the study of the Bible has always been
one OF the required branches, and grsdua-
ton, both for males and females, was
impossible without it. Times change
and people change with them. We
seem to live in an age when Bible study
is not only neglected but those who
contend for the faith once delivered
unto the saints" are looked upon with
suspicion. The comfort Of the scrip
lures has ever been regarded as one OF
pearls of great price by Methodists, as
we'll as by myria6s of persons OF evan
gelica denominations, and the ac-
lion OF the Depauw University
will not entirely relegate the Book OF
Books to the shelf. 1t is often said
by the observant that notwithstanding
the fact that fast presses and typesetting
machines have flooded the world with
literature, the appetite of the present
generation for solid reading is waning
continually. Comparatively few read
standard books. The cheap magazines
and voluminous Sunday papers afford
most of the intellectual lood OF the day;
hence the Bible and ancient and modern
history are read less than at any time
since the discovery Of printing. The
wheels OF life may be moving faster in
these than in preceding days, but that
the world, according to an old Isaw, ia
growing wiser may be questioned.

The SONG Everybody Works but

Moines to attempt to end life's transient
dream. This Individual, driven TO
destruction by the sonnet, concluded he
could stand it no longer, and according
" jumped overheard. He was rescued
and brought before the Police Court, and
upon being asked for an explanation
said he could bear the taunt of the song
no longer, and preferred to drown his
sorrows in the river. The above incident
may cause the strains of this tOrturing
song TO be used on some Others IN other
parts OF the country who suppose they
have reached an age when they can pass

different doctors. The first three
made them worse. The last one helped
them for little while, but the next
summer they broke out worse than

thought would try it. took the
complete treatment of Cuticura Soap,

used one box of Ointment my hands
were all smooth again, and now l am
doing all the work for four and my
hands are all free from eczema, and l
cannot say too much in praise for
Cuticura. My hair was falling out
fast and few applications Of the
Ointment stopped it. If there is any
part of this letter that would be the
means of others trying Cuticura, l am
willing you should publish it; as l would
like others to be cured as l was; for no

There is quite strong and constant
ly growing suspicion that about the
most venerable, ancient and entirely
Anticipated thing in nearly every Aroos-
took town, is the valuation schedule
upon which taxes are based. In almost
every town the officials successfully
elected would no more think OF mate
rally disturbing or radically changing
the schedule of valuation than newly
installed priest would think of commit
ting any act tending to profane the
sanctuary.-Presque Isle Star-Herald.
That is no doubt true of towns out
side of Aroostook- indeed, it may be
safely asserted that the towns of which
it is not true are exceptional. 1t would
pay any town to have valuation made
by experts, and it would also be an act
of justice to the majority, the smaller
taxpayers who, as all know, pay an
undue proportion of the taxes.

There is quite difference whether
ballot boxes are stuffed or not

lican, says with equal condolences: "a
Republican will not be chosen Cover
nor this fall" There you are, please
make your own choice.-Julius Cham
bers in the Brooklyn Eagle.
The World evidently bases its state
ment on the belief that there will be an
honest election, while the Sun thinks
that as usual Tammany will stuff the
ballot boxes and thus overcome Re
publican majority up the State.
The New York Times says: "Advices
from producing sources indicate that
the apple crop throughout the United
States this year is very large, probably
as great as that of 1896, which has
hitherto held the record. Seventy-six
million barrels of apples were gathered
that year. The trees are quite as heavily
fruited this year as in 1896. There is a
large acreage of new orchards to be
reckoned with. Allowance must also
be made for the growth of the older
trees. This will increase the yield con-
siderably." From all the reports we
have seen the crop in Maine will be be-
low the average and locally it will be
very light.
