The Wakefield Meetinus.

The meeting in the Baptist church.
conducted by Evangelist Wakefield.
commenced last Sunday morning as an
nounced. The attendance from the open
ing service has been good, and interest
seems to deepen with each service. Mr..
Wakefield is one of the sweetest sing
ers IN the evangelistic field TODAY. Be-
sides his solos, which are listened tn
with rapt attention, he makes special
effort to have good congregational sing
ing. The preaching has been plain.
practical, earnest and heart searching.
II you have not been out to these ser
vices you are earnestly requested to
come and worship with US. Do not wait
until the very close of the meeting to
come out, for then you may wish YOU
had started sooner. If you come now
and DO not find it of interest and helm to
you, you can not be made to continue to
come.
Let all of our people work together
for a blessing upon our town. 1t is the
desire of the evangelist and of the pas-
tor that the meeting be so conducted
that no undue advantage can even seem
70 be taken by any certain church. Our
chief concern is for the salvation of the
people. Then after they are saved let
each one be perfectly free to choose for
himself as to the particular church he
will join. With this assurance upon NV
part, let the Christians, regardless of de-
nomination, come together, praying and
working for blessing, and | verilv be-
ileve that it will be good for all. and
that all of US will share in the fruits of
the meeting.

THE KITCHEN FLOORS.

Is it too early to talk about reno
rating the woodwork of our hohes'
I think not, and if you are in iced
of formulas for floor stain, 1t might
be well to clip this one out and put
it where. you can get it when wanted.
The reason why many women desest
kitchen work is because the kitchen,
itself, is usually the most uninvitlng
place in the house, and only to be
kept presentable by hard, drudglng
work which might just as we'll not be-
required. No dainty woman likes to
spend the greater part of her tine
scraping and securing the floors. or
washing and cleaning the woodwork.
If the floor is an old one, it should be
secured perfectly clean. being par
ticular to remove all grease spots.
and let get perfectly dry. Then, Tor
good stain, take half a pound OF
burnt umber, half a pound of raw
umber, and mix with one pint OF
Japan varnish and one pint of boiled
linseed oil, thinning with turpentine
until it will spread evenly on tho
floor. Apply this mixture with a
worn paint brush, rubbing 1t across
the grain. In about ten minutes after
finishing the floor, go over It with .
wooden rag and rub off all the surplus
stain, rubbing this time with the
grain of the wood. When the floor -
perfectly dry, which should not be
longer than two or three days, at
most, apply a coat of boiled linseed
oil. Let dry before using. About
once in six months give the floor a
coating of boiled linseed oil, and IL
will always look well.
If the floor is a new one, of either
ash or hard pine, two coats of boiled
linseed oil makes pretty floor. Suck
a floor should not be scrubbed; wip-
ing up with clear, tepid water is all
that Is necessary.-The Commoner.

Financial Progress.

A certain member Of the PittSburg
Stock Exchange has set his nephew
up in business three timos. but the
young man lacks something essential
to success in the line selected fof him,
and has failed with each effort.
When he recently appeared before
the uncle with his fourth request the
latter said
You must learn to lean on your
self, | can't carry YOU all my life.
I'll tell YOU what III do You owe me
a great deal rs the result OF your last
failure. Pitch in on your own hook
and go it alone till you pay off those
debts. When you've done that I'll
give YOU check for what they
amount to. Such an experience will
do you more good than all the money
| could give YOU now"
Two months later the nephew
walked in with every ctnim receipted
in full. and the uncle, delighted. gave
the promised check
How did YOU mauage it.. How

Colgratulation.

The Home i'm Kansas,

No Kansas home is altogether hap
py without a bathtub, a bouquet or
flowers on the dinner table and a
Bible in the liYing-room. When the
whole family bathes in basin there
is apt to be uncleanliness, which is
csJsv kin 70 the devil When there
is nothing on the table but bread and
meat, no clean linen, no flowers, no
shining silver, there are apt TO be
cross words or quarrels, and when
there are Bibles only on the shelves
in the dark corners Of the library
worldliness soon grips the occupants
of any home. The average man who
keeps clean inside and outside, who
looks at the flower and not the dust,
who reads the Bible and loves his
wife and baby, is the best citizen. He
is worth more to the community than
the individual who had a mansion
and a library and stocks and bonds,
and inside the Satan of selfishness
bigger than a woodchuck.-Chapman
Advertiser.
