The Art Of Walking.

To walk gracefully is an art, one
which is seldom the accomplishment

should be kept well back, and the
whole weight of the body should rest
on each foot In turn. Set the foot
down squarely, striking the ball OF
the foot first. Keep the chin drawn
back well horizontally, which Will

American Sabbath as having been the

Referring directly to the Sunday
baseball question, Rev. Jackson de-
clared that he could think of no
better way for a city to rid itself
of Sunday ball than to follow the
proceedings Of the citizens of the
great city of Cleveland few years
ago. Sheriff Barry was the chief
factor in the Cleveland fight against
ball, said Rev. Jackson. He simply
took the question into hand and is

naturally favoring the election of n
new sheriff but Sheriff Barry was
nominated and re-elected by one OF
the largest majorities ever given n

IN an interesting sermon given
Sunday evening. Rev. e. F. w.
Stellhorn, pastor of the Emanuel
Lutheran church, condemned those
ministers who preach sensationalism
in order to attract the crowds to
their churches. He said that it is the
duty OF o minister to preach from
the Bible and to teach the doctrines
exDounded by Christ.
Rev. Mr. Stellhorn said that It is
not the mission of the pulpit to
amuse or entertain, IN talk on phil
osophy or to deliver harangues on
politics. This sort of preaching may
draw crowds for time, but the in
terest manifested by the public Is
not lasting.
The text of Rev. Mr.. Stelhorn's
sermon deals with the story of how
abraham sent his servants into the
land of Canaan to find a wife for
his son. Isaac. It is found in Gene
sis "a; SIS. In this bit of Biblical
history, Rev. Mr.. Stellhorn found
basis for thoughts which he applied
TO modern conditions. He said that
1t is not the place Of tho church to
descend to the level OF the word in
order that the world may be brought
into the church. 1t is the duty Of
the church to continue preaching the
fruits of God.
If the Christian does his duty as
Instructed by God, and in the end
success does not crown his efforts,
them the responsibility rests with
God just as the responsibility rests
with the master when servant does
as he has been told" said the speak
er.

The amman children's day exer-
cises Of the Central Christian church
took place Sunday evening and were
attended by large congregation.
The program occupied the entire time
of the evening service and consisted
chiefly of recitatlons, songs and
drills.
One of the prettiest things of the
evening was the professional which
opened the program, the children,
numbering so, marching in while
singing o melody. The little ones
who took part were students in the
intermediate and primary depart
ments.
Only a few of the numbers were
tiven by individuals, the greater
part of the program being made up
of drills, class songs and exercises
Recitations were given by Master
Burgess Anthony and little Misses
Lucille Rodgers, Flossie Pickering
and Helen Ford.
The program was in charge of
Mrs. B. G. Piatt.

prisoner. The officer stated that
Morrison placed a handkerchief sat

STRANGE STORY OF DREAMS.

Distinct Mfsf0rtunes of Man n
Africa Revealed to Relatives.
A correspondent sends the following
anecdote, or, as he calls 1t, "case Of
thought transference," which was told
him by an eminent engineer, whose
name is withheld:
This well-known engineer had been
to Bulawayo on the occasion Of the
opening Of the railway to that place.
A friend who accompanied him on the
occasion contracted enteric fever and
died on the homeward voyage. Half
an hour before he died his hair turned
perfectly white.
On arriving in England the engineer
went to break the news to the young
mans sister. He found that not only
did the lady know of the death Of her
brother but she knew the time and the
circumstance Of the hair turning white.
The engineer was requested to break
the news to the father and mother as
gently as possible, but to say nothing
Of the hair turning white.
After journey or 1OO miles ne FOUND
that both father and mother, whom he
saw separately, not only knew Of tho
death Of their son but knew of his
hair turning white at the time Of his
death.
Each had had a dream, vivid
dream. at the moment OF the death tax

her own counsel and they had not
spoken to each other Of the dream
