The Right Way to Farm.

We heard one of our farmer mer- chants say a few days since that he would not take 4.0OO bushels for the corn he has made this year, That Is who failed to make his corn this year will be in a fix indeed and in truth. With cotton selling at less than nine have to hustle to keep his head above water this year. The man who has corn in his crib to do him and to fat ten his hogs and keep his stock in good condition Is in good fix no matter what cotton brings.

Wake In and Vote.

Wetumpka Herald.
 One of the hardest tasks to accomp- fish is the waking up of the average voter to the fact that it Is his duty to go to the polls and vote on Novemb Der 3d. 1908. There are a lot of good men who will spend hours asserting their allegiance and loyalty to the Democrat ic party but when the polls are open they daily about and finger until they are closed. without casting their suf- frage.

Stalking Skeletons.
BY ,. MARVIN NICHOLS.

VIII.
 Stalking Many a skeleton has
 family closet. one at at times can almost hear the clank of the chains that bind him. Suppose your web of life were all tangled? Sup pose your private life were to be sud- denly dragged into the lirne-llght! The distant past one said: Without ye are as whitened sepulchres;'. within. full of rottonness and dead mems bones" Men and women tramp our the hush of death. Imprisoned ghosts. grown brave by years of concealment. at last risk too much. Our smiles hide the deadliest secrets. Sometimes we thoughtlessly drop the key. The spectral thing breaks for freedom. The tragedy-then shame. There is no su- premer hour in which to discover friends. How often is this allegiance just a ftful flame. It's like the will oo'-the- -wiSp. Too often it forsakes. in friendships that do not prove to be only frelights thrown up from the bogs of appetite and passion. Most Of the crowd that flung roses at the mar riage feast will lead the mob at the hanging. One needs only to be pursued by social sleuth hounds to discover un- dying friendships. Put your ear close to the average human heart. The sound is like the moaning of tired and restless sea. It will not hush fret It's already tired and worried wa ters. Whmt if the curtains were ruth lessly drawn aside? IS there one whose absolutely real life steps to the sure of his hiding places; We must not curse the one whose skeleton has stalked out into the garish day. In cursing others we may curse ourselves.

The purpose and result of freedom

you tree. St Johns viii, 31-32.
 The purpose and result of freedom Is service. This sounds like a para present themseuVes, but 1t Is only when we combine the two different terms of which they are composed that the whole truth Is revealed.
 God frees our souls--not from ser vice-not from duIy-but into service and into duty. Duty has become to us such cold. hard word. and service seems so full of the spirit of bondage. that we realize that. 1t is inself a word of liberty and freedom.
 But when we turn to Jesus anu think of Him as the manifestation of His own Christianity-(and if men would only look at Him and see what Christianity really is. and not at the poor, faulty representatives of Jesus whom they see around them)-when we turn to the life of Jesus, we see clearly that the full purpose of con- His fellowmen.
 It is a life of service from the be- ginning to the end. He sets up ser vice. and noting but service, to be on which the souls of lis followers should be fixed continually.
 What is 1t that Christ has left to be His symbol in the world? It is the cross. the sign of conservation
 It is not simply suffering. Christ does not stand primarily for suffer ing. Suffering Is an accident It does not matter whether you or I suffer. Not enjoyment and not sor- row" is our life; not sorrow any more than enjoyment. but obedience and duty. If duty brings sorrow, let it bring sorrow.
 It is not pain; it is consecration makes the life of Christ It is for us to serve Him-serving fellowman and God-whether 1t bring joy or pain We must put resolutely from us the thought of happiness or sor- row. and if we are only dutiful and Christ
 You can help your fellowmen; you must help your fellowmen; and the only way you can help them is by tF II u Is possible for you tc be.
 I watch workman building a lofty tower, which by and by will toss it's khn building up and wondering how these pi2Eacies are to be. measuring the, feet and the height of the beams; anu yet all the time he is cramming rotton stone into the foundation. Let him forget the pinnacles. if he will, or hold only the floating Image of them Tn his imaBlnatlOn Tor his In spIration; but the main thing for him to do Is to put up a strong, brave soul. an honest. substantial life, and good, true material into the building just where he Is now at work.
 I, seems to me that comes home to us all. Men are questioning now, as never before, whether Christianity Is to be the salvation of the world. They are feeling how 1t needs regeneration i; how 1t Is wrong and bad all through and through. yet mixed with the good that is in 1t everywhere.
 Christian life that claims so much for itself competent for the mighty task t has undertaken? Can 1t meet all these human problems, relieve all these human miseries and fulfil all tn ese human hopes?
 Christian men and women, 1t is for us to give our answer to that ques- ton! It Is for us to declare that Christianity. that the Christian faith the Christian manhood can do that

Financler Who Chew. "BntOns."

New York Press.
 One of our abler industrial captains is always chewing the cud, as they say in ordinary slang yet. so far al he is concerned, in reality, Lots of hnan- oiers chew gum, but this one in par ticular who never tasted chicle or rub ber-pIastic. as the boys call it, chews bit of biItong. "Biltong" is a hunk of South American bull-beef (the rump) dried in the sun. It is as tough as rawhide. and will make a man who can digest 1t as strong as bull kubu. Our industrial captain always carries a small shaving in his vest pocket and when getting into a hard deal takes a bite. It is just about as good as a piece ofwalrus hide, or the sole of an old shoe. but "it makes spit" and sa- lIva is the soul of good digestion.
