Williamsport, Pa.-Miss Ella Court

While suffering from stroke of
paralysis, says that she made visit
to heaven. She was in a state of cat
alepsy, and during the trance, she de-
clares, she enjoyed a visit to the
realm of the unknown.
During her interview with a news
paper man she gave a graphic de-
scription of he. vision, interspersed
with frequent biblical illusions and
quotations. While within the gates
she says she saw the throne of God,
with Jesus sitting at his feet. Stretch
ing away as far as she could see were

supernal beings We're all dressed in
robes of white.

Budding is economical in the amount
of wood used from which to take buds.
In this method, single bud does the
work of two or three or more upon
the scion used in grating. But while
it is economical of wood, it is ex-
pensive in the use of stocks, a Seeding
being required for each tree, while,
with the piece-roots system Of graft

TWO KINDS OF CHRISTMAS.

Christmas will be here before you get your next
Citizen. What kind of a Christmas will it be in your
neighborhood?
Christmas has always been a time for good feeling
and for happiness 1t is day which every man who
believes IN Christ ought to rejoice for day
more regiousy, and the religion of Christ is a happy
one. But too many men, who have religion make
them happy lock for excitement in bottle. There are
many of that kind that often these DAYS. when a man
gets drunk and shoots at and children or makes
fool of himself, he says he has "been havin Christ
mas Could there be any insult to the real mean
ing Of the day, Him whose birth we celebrate.
Other men who have religion do other things
almost as bad. Christmas is often made day for all
kinds of wrong doing Many schools afraid to have
Christmas because there so many shooting at
them, and some is likely to be made widow for
Christmas.
This is partly the fault of the law officers but it is
more the fault of all of We have made the day
sacred it should be- We have insisted on the
law officers doing their duty when there shooting
We have not treated men who desecrated the Lords
birthday if they had been wicked but have let them
alone, and been friendly the time saw them.
If we have not done anytheng help along the trouble
we have done nothing to stop it. So all of are to
blame or less.
Some of us have done something, tho. There are
a good many counties which have VOTED local op-
onvoted to keep the bottle away from the men that
try to get happy that way. In of these the law is
enforced. There is going be any shooting there
In some others whskey somehow gets around and there
will be trouble. That is why asked what kind of
Christmas 1t was going to be in your neighborhood.
For you, and every other there help keep the
