Widows Pensions.

The laws relating to the pen
sioning of widows, minors under
the age of sixteen years, and
helpless minors, are affected by
the Sulloway law, which became
operative April 10, 1908, to-wit :
An income of $3.50 per annum
is no longer a bar.
The widow is relieved of prov
ing that the husbands death re-
suited from causes contracted in
the service.
The rate is increased from So
to SIP per month.
1t may be added that widows
on the pension rolls will receive
the increase without making ap-
plication, and widows who have
been rejected because of income
must make application.
l will be pleased to furnish
blanks to those desiring them.

The American Boy for May

The fine picture of a yacht

fully please. Timely articles are:

dents Cabinet, a short sketch of
Mr.. Cortelyou, and How Memoir

in matters of amusement he can
speak to them, not in the name
of the church, but in the name
of the Lord. Thus saith the
church, had it's power; thus saith
the Lord, will have greater po-
tency.
AgoOd illustration Of this was
given some time ago in the Pres
byterian church in this city. A
minister from Dayton was here
and denounced pleasure-seeking
at the expense of Christian char
acter, which made a deep i'm
preston. The appeal was to the
conscience. 1t is the minister's
duty so to do when he sees wrong
doing.
If the M. E. church will see fit
to make social amusements a mat
ter of conscience merely, the
preachers will have greater and
nobler work to do. Like the old
Hebrew prophets they will have
to denounce wrong-doing; not so
much by church authority, but
in the name of the Lord and CIV
er of life.
Brace up to it, brethren, cry
aloud and spare not.

Gettysburg.

Here we are in May, but not
very far removed from snowfall.
On the last day of April consid-
cradle snow and hail fell here,
which is nothing new, and this
item is furnished simply to make
record of the fact. Temperature
has been pretty low for a week
or such matter, with plenty of
rain, all of which is delaying the
planting of corn, Of which very
little is done, even by our earIi-
est planters. The prospect now
seems that corn planting will be
delayed for a couple Of weeks.
Decoration services seem to be
the next in order for entertain
ment, and our people have al
ready begun to shape up for it,
and provide an exercise which
may eclipse all Of its predeces-
sors.
Sidewalk work is in suspen-
sion at this time.

THAT AMERICAN ACCENT.

The conversational method Of teach
ing languages is growing in favor,
and it is now proposed to exchange
German and American school teach
ers for the sake Of cultivating the
ears and tongues of two rising gen
erations. This is sad blow to Eng
lands pride. English students and
travellers in Germany have assiduous-
ly spread and strengthened the ira
dition that Americans speak a vulgar
dialect Of Shakespeare's tongue. And
now the Prussians are anxious to
have their children schooled in the
twang Of derided patois! The hour
is at hand for another Anglo-GermAn
incidsnt-New York Tribune.

Tsnnyson's Humor.

There was a playful humor in
Lord Tennyson that rarely showed
itself unless the poet was within the
familiar circle of his friends. John
Blackwood, member of the famous
firm of publishers, gave an amusing
instance of this in one of his let
ters:
The Rev. James White, rector of
a neighboring parish, and Tenny-
son were chatting each other, as
their custom was, concerning the
merits of their respective houses.
Il believe part of Bonchurch be-
longs to you," remarked the poet,
'"The whole of it," said White,
''You mean," retorted Tennyson,
"the hole you live in"
And the Rev. James White was
silenced. ~~
