taught district school in Howard coun'
ty. He was slender youngster at the
time, weighing little more than 100
pounds.
Many of Kern's pupils were more
than 20 years of age and in size were
grown men. He taught one school
for two terms with much success and
gave up the occupation of school

While getting his earlier education
Mr.. Kern attended what was called

He rode to school each morning on

his lessons to his horse during the
noon hour and that frequently on the
way to and from school he INDUCED

horse prick up his ears.

Mr.. Kern's prominent characteristics
He is keenly satirical, but his satire
never wounds.
In appearance M. Kern is not g
rugged man. He is of slender build
but possesses strong vitality. Two OF
three years ago his health failed, anG
he and his friends believed that he
was rapidly going into a decline. His
physician sounded the warning, 'con

sought a moderate climate in the
south, and after six months stay came
home a new man. Since then his
health has been good.
John w. Kern has for years worr

to caress his beard when he is a

SERMONETTE.

In this story of the personal
life of the prophet Hosea we
have a portrayal of what is but
too common to-day-the disrupt
ing of the home through the Vio-
Iation of the sacred marriage
vows by one or both of those
who have entered into the union
which none but God should have
made, and which nothing but
death should have severed.
1t is a case where vanity and
love of pleasure were permit
ted to SO dominate the life as to
obscure everything else.
How much of domestic un-
happiness and how many dis
rupted homes can be traced to
these causes? Vanity-self-loVe
and seIf-exaitation make one an
easy victim to the enticements
of sin. Love of pleasure is that
door through which the soul hav-
ing passed, finds it but too easy
to cast off all restraint and ut
terIy give up the life to the base
qualification of the flesh.
There is no more beautiful or
sacred relationship in life than
that of husband and wife, and
there is no more dark or helIish
tragedy than that Of violated
marriage vows and disrupted
homes.
But the disrupted home was
better than sin condOned and
covered up. Love was Iong-suf-
fering, and. we catch the yearn-
ing and heart-throb of the proph-
ct in the second verse when
he cries to his children to
plead with their mother that
she turn from her evil ways.
But she would not listen.
She must drink to the full of
her sin and be brought low be-
fore he could lift her up. She
must be abandoned to her own
wiIIfuI way. And that is just
} the way God deals with US. He
sees our hearts set upon the
evil course. He pleads with US
and besets our way with hin
drances, but when he sees we
will not listen nor heed his cry,
then it is that he gives US up to
, our own way. Hosea was merci-
full in his severity, and so is God
, as he permits the WiIIfuI heart
to drink to the bitter dreqs the
cup Of sin.
St. Tammany farmer., 1908-08-22

The Prophet Hosea.-The name means
salvation" and in the personal history
of the prophet--which many of the deep
est and most spiritual Bible scholars such
as G. Campbell Morgan, of England, and
James M. Gray, dean of the Moody Bible
institute, consider a literal portrayal OF
the prophets life-we find type or illus
tration of Jehovah's relations to Israel.
Hoseas field of labor was Israel, and he
prophesied during the reign of Jeroboam
IL, about 7S4 B. c., down to the captiV-
tty. An outline of the book Is as follows:
l. Historico-prophetic, chapters 1 to 3;
2. General discourses, chapters to to ID;
8. Promises, chapter IA, (al Appeal of
God VS.. 1-S; (b) Promised blessing, VS..
4-8; (c) Application to all, ". g. The per-
sonal history of the prophet may be dl-
vided into three periods as follows: ID
A Happy Union-The prophet marries a
woman who had lived an impure life, but
who had reformed. ~ A Ruined Home
Three children came to bless the nome
and then the wife, forgetful of obhga-
tious of wifehood and motherhood, de-
serts her home for her former lovers. S)
Love Unfailing-But her true loVer-nus-
band never loses sight of her, and at last
after she had sunk to the very depths OF
sin he buys her back so that he may re-
store her to her old place in the home.
A Ruined Home.-This period in the
prophets life is a type of Jehovah for
saken by Israel for other gods Chapter
2 covers practically the same ground as
chapter i, only more fully. and concludes
with the same vision Of ultimate restoP-
alton and blessing.
Scripture Authority-The Book oi
Hosea, especially chapter 2.

STORIES.

ter story-teller to be found than John
w. Kern, the Democratic nominee for
Vlce-president, although when he in.
dulges in the humorous for the benefit
OF his friends it Is always of the clean.
est sort.
Mr. Kern has keen taste for the
satire in life. His friends recall one
II his sarcastic utterances indulged in
on an occasion when he was dining
with w. J. Bryan not long ago. At
the time Mr.. Kern was being dis
cussed as a vice-presidential possi-
bility.
Some one joeularly remarked that a
few years in Washington as the vice.
president of the country ought to
please Kern greatly The question
arose as to the expense of living in
Washington.
Yes" said Kern, 'T understand
that it is costing e-President Fair
banks about $50,O0O a year. Now, at
that rate, considering the state of my
physical fortune, l could live in Wash
tngton about one day."
Mr.. Bryan was greatly amused at
the utterance, it is said, and often al
ludes to Mr.. Kern's remark.
AS long as somebody doesn't organ.
lze a Curran club, J. w. Kern can go
happily through the campaign. Cur.
ran is a good enough name and all
that, but it does not happen to be his
name. And many people, since he has
been one of the big guns in Indiana
politics and his name has been often
spoken, have used it Curran.
Not long ago Judge Pritchard of the
criminal court received a letter from
a man concerning the trial of Harry
P. Brunaugh, then in progress. ant
the man spoke Of Mr.. Curran," mean
ing Mr.. Kern.
Such is fame" suggested the judge
through two campaigns for governor
and still Mr.. Curran!"
YES. such is fame!" sighed Mr.
Kern.
John W. Kern has always beer
proud that he was once school-teach
