 Cleveland. O., Oct 1S.-The allure ments of commercial life and fear of the ministerial dead line" are assign ed as reasons for the alarming de- crease in the number of young men entering the ministry by the national Congregational council. which held its final meeting here. Increased pay for ministers was the only solution sug- gestPd.
 ''The greed for the dollar is dragging our young men into commercial life, to the detriment of the ministry" said pr. C. L. Morgan of Illinois. "Congre- gatiOns seem to think minister should labor for nothing. We cannot blame young men if they do not venture their own lives and their families in such precarious career as the ministry.p
 Dr. William Park of Chicago said the fear of losing their pastorates aft er they reached middle age deterred many who otherwise would enter the ministry.
 "lt is the cry everywhere for young men. It is this ministerial dead line that holds men back"

A Word to Thinkers.

"Do not" says prominent writer,
s'allow the existence of intellectual
difficulties to interfere with the pro-
gress of your practical religious life.
hMany men think that unless all
their intellectual problems are settled
1t is impossible to live truly religious
life. A more mistaken notion never
entered mans head.
"If you are, a thinking man you win
always have difficulties; new ones viii
probably come forward even more
rapidly than old ones are settled. Be
not too greatly disturbed by these
difficulties. If you are not yet a
Christian, do not put off becoming one
until they disappear. Such time will
never come.
"Go forward in Christian work and
service, follow the paths pointed out to
you so clearly in sacred Scripture, and
let the difficulties be settled as your
Christian faith and character become
more firmly established"

Household Economies.

Before putting away the old wool
underwear for the summer, sort it out
and use such garments as are too worn
for further service for wash cloths. Cut
them into squares, buttonhole the
edge, and you have far more service
able cloth than can be bought, and
one which will never turn gray.
Silver will never tarnish If a little
gum of camphor is scattered in the
chest where the ware is kept.
If cork persists in slipping in the
bottle, place piece of muslin, large
enough SO the edges will stick up above
the cork beneath it. There will then
be no danger of the cork falling into
the bottle and it can be drawn out with
out resorting to the use of corkscrew.
Don't throw away the old gloves, but
put them in a handy place near the
back door to be quickly drawn on
when there is any rough outdoor work
to be done. The country woman may
have presentable hands if she will take
q few precautions in caring for them.
Cut off the sleeves of old shirtwaists
a couple of inches above the elbows
and use them for oversleeves when
working in good dress.
When cooking canned peas or canned
corn, add about teaspoonful of sugar
to each quart. 1t gives them a sweet
taste as though they had just come in
from the garden.

The Power Of Habi..

q. G. Hallinger, the faEous tobacco
planter of Lancaster. Pa, said recently
of tho Tobacco habit.
at is . good thing that tobacco,
used In moderation, is quite harmless,
for think II is one of the strongest
habits In the world. Many a man can
stop drinking who can't for his life
stop smoking. Indeed have known
men to throw over good positions only
because they could not smoke in
fhem.'
Mr.. Hallinger smiled.
"That Is a good deal like the Irish
diver, isn't it?" he said. "Down in
Philadelphia one day young Irish
man applied at the wharves for o
divers post. He knew nothing Of
diving, but the strangeness OF the work
attracted him; and since he was n
likely-iooking chap, a arm took him
on. The next morning he was encased
in a diving suit, the helmet was
screwed on his head, and he was
lowered down some 80 or 40 feet to ex-
anime a sunken boat.
"He went down well and bravely.
He remained on the bottom some
minutes, doing lot of bard work
Then he slgnaled impatiently to be
drawn up.

IT takes q great soul to be true

friend, or to have friend, There is
nothing else in life except motherhood,
that costs so much, 1t not only costs

Mr.. Moody once said, rI can imagine
when Christ told his diciples to go and
preach to all, that Peter said, Lord, do
you really mean that we are to go back
to Jerusalem and preach to those men
that murdered you?' Yes said Jesus,
go hunt up that man that spat In my
face; tell him he may have seat in my
kingdom yet. Go find the man that
made that cruel crown Of thorns, and
tell him | have a crown made ready
for him when he comes into my king
dom, and there will be no thorns In it.

RANCH AND HOUSEHOLD.

A family strawberry shortcake should
he baked IN large pan, either whole
or In two thin cakes, with butter
brushed on the lower one to make
them separate. Then fill and garnish
on large dish and serve in squares,
being sure to cut II with heated knife.
But If someone Is likely to be late, or If
you want the cakes to be unusually
attractive, bake them the size of bak-
ing powder biscuit and split them.
The best shortcake IL made tender
with butter but occasionally they are
made from half lard and half butter
and no one is the wiser. Use pastry
flour and have the, shortening very
cold. If single large cake Is baked,
use square pan as large round cake
does not out well. A shortcake looks
tempting when garnished with whip,
ped cream, pressed through pastry
tube, but when one woman must be
both cook and waitress, she does not
always have time for this extra touch.
Split the little individual cakes, put
crushed and sweetened berries on the
buttered lower half, turn the top half
over and treat in the same way. Put
on generous spoonful of whipped
cream and a perfect whole strawberry.

RELIGIOUS,
Beyond Today.

II we could see beyond today,
As God can see,
II all the clouds should roll away,
The shadows fieei
O'er present griefs we would not fret,
Each sorrow We would soon forget,
For many joys are waiting yet
For you and me,
n we could know beyond today,
As God doth know,
Why dearest treasures pass away
And tears must flow,
We'd see that darkness leads to light.
That dreary paths will soon grow bright
That all life's wrongs will be made light;
Faith tells US so.
II we could see, if ws could know,
We often say.
But God In love veil doth throw
Across our way;
We cannot see what lies before,
And SO we cling to him the more,
He leads US till this life is DER;
Trust and obey.

Carrots are often looked upon as a
kind of delicate food for sick horses. If
a horse Is out of sorts and off feed re-
fusing almost everything and eating
with the greatest indifference and car-
rots are offered they are eaten at once
with much appreciation. They help
to restore the appetite and give condi-
ton to the horse. In these respects
carrots are invaluable and may be
looked upon as safe correctives, But
their usefulness extends beyond the
period of sickness and depression and
horses in health may receive them
frequently as good food to maintain
condition and activity. When first
given their effect is u little laxative,
but this is desired in many cases and
once given regularly, they act as quail
flying food. They are an excellent
food for itching horses and all in bad
coat, as they are cooling to the blood
and give glow to the hair. Horses OF
all ages may receive them, including
even the youngest backward foals.
Carrots should not be looked on as
mere additions to other foods, but sub
stitutes for them, as they are quite
capable of acting as real food. They
shonld Ibe pulped and mixed with
grain or chaff. Twenty or thirty
pounds day is good allowance.

Is quite an acreage, they informed the

which has no water on it, and no way
to water it except the syphon system,
and this is the land these boys located,
figuring that some half dozen con-
genial acquaintance might take up

headed boys, and the chances are they
zee their way out on the scheme and
will carry their plans to maturity
