RevivalS

We were often wondering how the
protestant official church and press could
idly sit by while revivalists and so-called
evangelisls sometimes ''reformed'
toughs by their harangues made the
cause Of religion ridiculous. The more
liberal and liberalizing Christian denom-
nations, like Unitarians, Universalists,
Congregationalists long ago have placed
themselves on record as opposed to Gre
vivalism, which in the end, after the
hysteria is over, does more harm than
good to the cause of religion. But the
orthodox denominations have greatly en-
couraged this travesty Of religion. But,
it seems that slowly but surely their at
titude is also nearing a point when pa
tience ceases to be virtue.
The "Western Christian Advocate, -
of Cincinnati, takes strong exception to
the pulpit language of ''Billy" Sunday,
the former Chicago ball player, turned
evangelist, and especially the wording
of his prayers. The current issue Of the
paper makes this comment:
eff he does not know that such Ian
be plainly told So We would not to true
to our convictions if we did not desig-
nate such prayer as not only unconven-
tional, but mOnstrously irreverent and
absolutely blasphemous.
But, we are afraid, that these stric-
lures from the orthodox religious press
come too late. They ought to have come
when Sam Jones and his followers fif-
teen and twenty years ago by their dis
graceful antics and language under the
cloak of religion made for one convert to
orthodoxy ninety-nine converts to In
gersollism and atheism.

ont at the rellSlOuS ScuOOI, olleA uoI SCi-
dom observe strictly the Jewish dietary
laws The reason, and the only reason
why these worthy ladies have married
non-J ewish men was that the jewish
men were too greedy, and always asked
how large the dowry would be. A Jew
ish girl in Germany, Austria-Hungary
and France-we do not know the cir
cumstances in England and Holland
no matter how well bred, how good
looking, how highly educated, how well
connected, has absolutely no chance to
get married, if, unfortunately, her father
or mother are not financially so situated
as to be able to give her dowry, and
usually a pretty large one. The high
minded Jewish men in Europe, who care
more for character education, good
looks and family than for money, when
ever the question of marriage arises,
are wlite ravens indeed. What, then,
can and shall the poor marriageable
Jewish girls in Europe do? They can
not all emigrate to this country, and
they do not want to die old maids. Can
we then wonder that whenever non
Jewish men propose to marry them on
their merits-and they are, as a rule,
less mercenary--they do not always give
''No' for an answer? In Europe inter-
marrying between Jews and non-Jews
is an economical and not at all a reli-
gious question. Therefore all attempts
Of rabbinical conferences and other jew
ish agencies to check such intermarriages
will be of no avail, so long as they can
not eradicate the disgraceful spirit of
materialism and extreme selfshness,
which reigns supreme among the Jewish
young men in Germany, Austria, etc.
So far America can point with pride
to their Jewish young men, whose first
conside Grafton in entering into the state
Of mat rimony is not-money. But, if
the signs Of the times do not deceive,
Jewdom in this country is also getting
Europeanized, so far as marrying for
money is concerned. The "Shddchen"
is advertising his business in the Jewish
press. Especially in New York, poor
Jewish girls have poor chances to marry,
and intermarriages between Jews and
Christians are therefore on the in
crease, and again, the story of Europe
is being repeated. Jewish girls by the
hundreds marry Christian husbands,
and the majority Of these girls arc
daughters of strictly orthodox parents
But in New York there is also another
problem. Hundreds of Jewish young
men, many born in Russia, and many
of them sons Of Russian immigrants, buy

LOCATES PERMANENTLY.

Every citizen of Union City will
be pleased to hear the announce.
ment that j. A. Coble, formerly
of the Coble- Walker Grocery Com,
pany, has bought an active inter-
est in the plant and business Of
the Dahnke- Walker Milling Com
pany, and that he and his family
are therefore to remain residents
Of Union City. The facts in the
case are that this company is ex-
banding its capital and its bust
ness simply to induce Mr.. Coble
to remain with us. The company
is one of the strongest we have
already, no extra working capital
or managing counsel being neces-
sary for the conduct of the bust
ness, but aside from the fact that
Mr.. Coble's assistance will be a
very valuable producing power,
his citizenship was the principal
object in holding out inducements
to him to remain. For this pur
pose the company voted to in
crease the stock with an additional
amount Of $4,000, and in doing
this several very important and
extensive improvements are con-
templated. The main idea is to
enlarge the corn mills to a .ca-
pacity Of $50 barrels of meal q
day, with a plant second to none
in the South. The building will
be ON Main street, to occupy the
site of the one destroyed by FIRE.
1t will be of brick, four stories
high, and equipped with all the
latest in modern and standard ma
chinery for making meal and grlts.
The principal product Of the mill
will be Pearl Meal, the sale of
which has already been established
through the South. The capacity
and the equipment for improving
the quality as well as the quantity
Of the output will be the impor-
tant features Of the new mill.
The announcement that Mr.. Co
BILE and his excellent family are to
remain with us is Of the greatest
Importance, and it is with genuine
pleasure that we publish it. h

GOVERNOR HUGHES.

The fight between Governor
Hughes and the political organi-
cation Of New York, which is CON
trolled mainly by the insurance

stage. In the first attack Hughes
was repulsed, but he has redoubled
bis energies and his forces are In
creasing for another charge. He
is altogether uncompromising, but
the people are with him, and his
cause is thereby strengthened with
the assumption Of right against
might.

National Apple Day

It may be news of interest to or
chardists in this county to learn that
the, third Tuesday in October has
been designated as National Apple
Day" and that in some of the eastern
states it has been observed as such to
some extent for the past two years.
Apples are not only an appetizer but
a health promoter and their extern
sive use has prevented much disease
and saved lives. This result of com
mon use of apples doubtless had some
thing to do in naming National APP
pie day. 1t is something beyond the
financial side of the question. 1t
would be we'll if every rural school,
every family and every child gave
some attention to this new and some
what unique observance, for it would
promote health as well as the extern
sion of the apple business.

HOW WE WALK.
The Muscles Used and the Mechanical
Work They Do.

The Muscles Used and the Mechanical
Work They Do.
The chief muscles concerned in
walking are those in the calf and
back of the leg, which, by pulling
up the heel, also pull up the bones
Of the foot connected with it, and
then the whole body, the weight of
which is passed on through the
bones of the leg. When walking the
trunk is thrown forward so that it
would fall down PROSTATE were not
the right foot planted in time to
support it. The calf muscles are
helped in this action by those on
the front of the trunk and legs,
which contract and pull the body
forward, and, the trunk slanting
forward when the heel is raised by
the calf muscles, the whole body
will be raised and pushed forward
and upward. This advancement of
each leg is effected partly by mus
cular action, the muscles used being
(1) those on the front of the thigh,
bending it forward on the pelvis;
(2) the hamstring muscles, which
slightly bend the leg on the thigh;
90 the muscles on the front of the
leg, which raise the front of the
foot and toes, preventing the lat
ter, in swinging forward, from
hitching in the ground.
When one foot has reached the
ground the action of the other has
not ceased. There is another point
in walking. The body is constantly
supported and balanced on each leg
alternately and therefore on only
one at once; hence there must be
some means for throwing the cen
ter of gravity over the line of sup
port formed by the bones Of each
leg, as it supports the weight of the
body. This is done in various ways,
and hence the difference in the walk
of different people. There may be
slight rotation at the hip joint,
bringing the center Of gravity of
the body over the foot Of this side.
This rocking" motion Of the trunk
and thigh is accompanied by
movement OF the whole trunk and
leg over the foot planted on the
ground and is accompanied by
compromising outward movement at
the hip. The body rises and swings
alternately from one side to the 9TH
er as its center of gravity comes
alternately over one or the other
leg, and the curvature of the spinal
bones is altered with the VARYING
position Of the weight. London
Hospital.
