}HYMNs YOU OUGHT TO KNOW
Abide with Me.

Abide with Me.
Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens Lord, with me
abide!
When other helpers fail, and comforts
flee,
Help of the helpless, o, abide with me
Not brief glance l beg, passing word.
But as thou dwell'st with thy disciples.
Lord,
Familiar, condescending, patient, free,
Come, not to sojourn, but abide with me.
| need thy presence every passing hour;
What but thy grace can foil the tempter's
power?
Who like myself my guide and stay can
be?
Thro cloud and sunshine, O, abide with
Swift to it's close Gibbs out hfe's little
Earth's joys grow dim, it's glories pass
away;
Change and decay in all around see;
Come not in terrors as the King of kings:
But kind and good, with healing in thy
wings,
Tears for all woes, heart for every
plea
Come, Friend of sinners, and abide with
me!
fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless.
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitter
ness;
Where is Deaths sting? where Grave,
thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me-
Hold thou thy cross before my closing
eyes;
Shine through the gloom and point me to
the skies;
Heavens morning breaks, and earth's
vain shadows fee;
In life, in death, o Lord, abide with me !!

Profits in Pork.


Why do not the farmers put up more
of their pork, cure it and sell it in the
summer? This would bring more profit
than marketing the hog to the butcher.
The American Agriculturist has made
a careful estimate of the waste il
Strengthening hogs at home, which shows
facts that will be profitable to the pork
raiser. Take a hog weighing at home
200 pounds, on basis of Scent mar
ket, live weight. It's value is $40. If
fat, the hog loses about 20 per cent, or
40 pounds, leaving 100 pounds edible
portion. Approximately the dressing
will be: Two hams, 30 pounds; two
shoulders, "a pounds; four strips ba-
con, % pounds; spare ribs, head, feet
and backbone, 80 pounds, leaving about
45 pounds for sausage and lard. The
meats to be smoked will increase about
10 per cent in weight in the pickle,
but lose about the same as the dress
ing weight. The following are very
conservative prices for a country dress
ed hog: Thirty pounds ham, at IA
cents, $4.2O; % pounds bacon, at -
cents, $500; "a pounds shoulder, at 8
cents, So. 16; 40 pounds lard or sausage
at 1919 cents, $500; 25 pounds back
bone, spare ribs, etc, at 6 cents, $3.50; ;
soap fat. about % cents total, $1791 !;
cost of hog, $40; profit, $7.91.

in their eyes; they come to its end say
ing, as did Dickens, Life seems to me
the saddest dream that ever was
dreamed" Or they take up the cry
Of the old wording, vanity of vani-
ties; all is vanity and vexation of spir-
it," But with the word of God in mind,
this heartsfckness, this world of weari-
ness, disappears.
And now, brothers, fellow travellers
to eternity, you believe in the first part
of the apostles testimony concerning
the frailty Of our earthly life. VIII
you not also believe in the second part
and begin to build your life on the
word of God? Why should you pursue
vanity and live under the influence of
that which surely must fail?
Why not seek that which is best and
enduring? You are standing ut the
threshold of a new year. VIII you
cross it over without a sincere and de-
ternined resolve to live by the word
of God, which abideth forever?
Now is the accepted time. Now is
the day of salvation. And If it is not
worth while now to hear Gods word,
you may be assured that it will not be
worth while to do 50 in the coming
ages. If we will not live the higher
life here, on this bank of time, we
assuredly will not do so when we cross
over the bridge and come to the other
side Our real life is always in the
present, and what we are doing now
determines the future. So, to-day, if
you hear His voice, the voice Of your
Redeemer, harden not your hearts.
SHORT METER SERMONS.
The graces do not grow in gloom.
A growing faith will shatter many
forms.
Dishonest thinking does not lead to
holy living.
1t takes strong man to stop doing
weak things.
The religion that produces no sun
shine Is moonshine.
A greedy hand never gathered
enough to feed It's needy heart.
Half of success is in seeing the sig
nificance of small things.
To set child's face toward gladness
is to incline him to God.
Many a good deed has died in in
tention for lack of a little appreciation.
He does not help much who always
gets in the wagon before he puts his
shoulder to the wheel.

Austin. Texas, Nov. 6.-The attor-
ney generals office hopes the report
Will prove true that Henry Clay
Pierce, chairman of the Waters
Pierce Oil company, will voluntarily
come to Texas next week to stand
trial on the long-pending Indictment
against him. 1t will mark the be-
ginning of the end of case that has
cost the state of Texas vast amount
OF time and money. Every effort
will be put forth to try the case
without Unnecessary delay. It will be
called before Judge Calhoun Of the
Fifty-third district court, but it is
believed an effort will be made to
get change CT venue.
The troubles between the state Of
Texas and the Water-Pierce Oil COM
pany date back nearly decade, but
the charge against H. Clay Pierce on
which he is to be placed on trial
dates back to two years ago this
month. 1t was in November, 1906.
that the Travis county grand jury
returned an indictment against Mr..
Pierce charging him with false swear
ing. The indictment charges that
Pierce, on May 81, 1900, made an
affidavit that the Waters-Pierce
company had not entered into any
agreement or Understanding with
any corporation. partnership, firm
or individual to regulate the price ol
any article or commodity. 1t charges
that at the time Pierce made the at

had entered into an agreement with
the Standard Oil company, John D
Archbold. H. H. Rogers and other;
to control the price of oil in Texas
and that the Standard Oil compan!
had acquired q controlling interes
in the Waters-Pierce company.
The vigorous fight made by Mr.
Pierce to prevent extradition to thi
state to stand trial is familiar to al
! newspaper readers. His last re
source was exhausted two weeks agt
when the supreme court of tn,
United States denied his motion TO
a rehearing and sustained the low
