"Shall we know our loved ones after
death?' was the question asked by Rev.
E. Hez Sven, pastor of the Second Bap-
tist Church. at the beginning of his SER
mon last Sunday night.
Yes" was the answer given at the end
Of the discourse
For this affirmative answer the preach
err gave many reasons. He found his
text In three words in Luke, xxiv:3l,
"They knew Him."
At the beginning. DR. Sven cited pas
sages of scripture to indicate three
features of life beyond the grave. The
Bible teaches. he maintained. first, that
there is an unending existence after
death; second, that consciousness con-
tinues after death, that one Is able to
think; third. that there is continuance
of love after death.
Continuing he presented the reasons for
the affirmative answer to his question,
saying in part:
Note, first. that personality will be
preserved after death. Death cannot
destroy personality. OF that there are
many examples i'm the Bible. Moses con-
tinued as Moses after death and he ap-
peared at the TRANSPORTATION. Lazarus
was the same Lazarus after he was raised
from the dead Christ after His resur-
rection was recognized as the same
Christ.
I'VE shall know ourselves after death
and knowing ourselves, We will be able to
make ourselves known to others Persons
have met. after long years of separation
ard have known each other. Is it not
rea soma BILE. then to believe they will know
each other after death?
Note the second point. Memory viii
be preserved after death. Memory is as
death. then recognition will be possible.
Thirdly. future recognition is a natural
thing There is no intimation in the
Bible that 1t will he denied. Persons In
all ages have believed in future recogni-
ton 1t has been the belief of countless
numbers of Christians of all ages. The
old scriptures refer to death as going
unto thy fathers That David expected
to meet his son after death is indicated
by his words, will go to him, but he will
not return to me.
Note the fourth point An opportunity
will be given In heaven to know each
other The Bible promises that all thu
! redeemed will be with Christ. This indi-
Gates a continuance Of personality.
I'm the fifth place there will be nc
Christians. We learn this from the
teachings of the men Of the Bible.
Further. knowledge will be increased
Sin now clouds our minds. 1t is written
that now we see as through a glass dark
ly,' but later we will see clearly.
Mote the seventh point. The Lord s
words indicate future recognition. To
the robber on the cross who repented
Christ said: Today thou shalt be with
Me IN paradise / once heard of an in
cident at the death of a girl. year

Just before she died she looked up sud.

all to the good that the whole level of our
spiritual life should be raised. as 1t has
been raised in many dioceses, by the ex-
ample of this fervent zeal. But, oh. bear

Cuts off Free Service.

The railroad commission have issued
an opinion relating to telephone service.
The CHEF feature is that hereafter the
provision of the public utilities law pro-
hibiting free and reduced rate service is
to be strictly observed. The opinion
will, it is expected, require some impor
tant changes in the methods OF many of
the companies. The Wisconsin company
will not, it is understood, be much at
fected because it some time ago read
justed it's affairs so AS to comply with
the regulations now announced by the
commission. One paragraph says, Cali
free and reduced rate service is abso-
lutely prohibited by the public utilities
law This includes free local service IN
public pay stations, which it has been,
apparently, customary for companies to
give in number of places in this state.
It also includes free exchange of toll
service for part only of its subscribers
of a telephone company, similarly sit
uated, and not for all the subscribers

source of Profit Are Post Cards.

The cost of transporting the mails of
our country is but cents per pound,
and it takes just about 100 post cards to
make pound, therefore on every pound
of post cards the government clears
S1.12 1t is claimed that ON letter mail
the government clears almost 70 cents
per pound, while on books, newspapers
and magazines it loses cents per pound.
This makes deficit, and post cards are
the article which is saving considerably
along this line.
There are 10000 cards which end in
the dead letter Office. due to insuffic-
lent address or other reasons which pre-
vent their correct delivery. This num-
Der is swelled all the way from 10000 to
10000 unavailable post cards each day,
and all these cards become victims OF a
roaring furnace fire.
The card fad originated in Germany
some % years ago. A large factory in
Germany has 112 cylinder presses run
ming night and day, turning out nothing
but post cards.
Many OF the card dealers in this coun-
try have their views made in Germany,
as the Germans lead the world in COM
bining printing inks to secure artistic
effects, and are able to quote lower
prices, as labor does not come so high
over the seas. The duty on imported
post cards is 25 per cent.

amined by the trade. Mr.. Kumpf is in
charge and on May Harry Holmes Of
Milton, the superintendent, will be on

sales market for the entire state, a new
feature in disposing of tobacco, as the
manufacturers will thereby be able to
secure the weed direct from the growers
and the expenses for an agent will be
saved.
The work of sorting and packing the

tobacco pool was completed last Satur
day morning, Brent Olson and George
Moen, who have had general charge of
the work, left for their homes at Cam
bridge that evening. The total amount

housed in the stone warehouse, where it
will remain until the market conditions
are such that it may be sold with profit

The storm Did Much Damage.

Four days of cold rain with climax.
of snow was the feature of week of nn-
seasonable weather that swept the en-
tire country OF the Mississippi valley. A
tremendous wind accompanied the storm
on Friday that assumed the nature of a
hurricane in many localities and even a
tornado in several OF the southern states,
carrying death and destruction in its
track. The tobacco section of the state
did not escape the severity of the storm
which wrecked hundreds of sheds and
farm buildings.
About Stoughton we learn that for
Anton Staff, north of Utica, it blew
down good sized tobacco shed in which
about $500 worth of farm machinery was
stored, and on the old Huber homestead,
now occupied by Claude Mason, it blew
down windmill which fell onto the
dwelling house near by and damaged the
roof 1t also moved some tobacco sheds
on this farm. Other farmers reported
to have had sheds blown down are An

Mrs. Peter Guam, near the lake, and
Sam Moe, on the old Atkinson farm near
the lake. On the Renvick place near
Cooksville, shed was moved a foot off
from it's foundation. South of town the
wind was accompanied by large hail.
The SUR johnson estate at Mcfarland
lost fine tobacco shed of eight bents.
Possibly there was no more elaborate
and expensive building of the kind in
Dane county. Toilet Lewis, neighbor,
lost nine bents. Erick Spurleon of Rut-
land sacrificed four good bents Jens
Anderson, Dunkirk, has ten bents down.
The shed had just been constructed.
The wind is reported to have blown
down sheds on the old Savage farm near
Cooksville and also on the Henry Pratt,
Gilbert and John Hyland, Jr., places in
the same vicinity. Peter Tenjem, north
west of town, also had shed blown over
for him.

as having fine farm just outside the
city limits, and a good macadam road
leading to it. The farm is stocked with
a large herd of dairy cows, about 30 be-
ing in milk at the present time. Large
fields of grain have been sown and every
thing gives promise of prosperity. Both
Mr.. Vickers and Mr.. Ehlenfeldt are
happy and contented in their new loca-
ton.
Mr.. j. Ell. Maltpress, who is employ
ed in large brick making plant near
Mason City, Iowa, arrived here Satur-
day and passed the time until Monday
with relatives. At the home of his
father, AR. John Maltpress, dinner was
given in his honor on Sunday, the
guests being brothers and sisters and
their families, numbering about 30. The
family circle was incomplete owing to
the absence of the oldest and Youngest
of the children, Mrs. W. Fl. Butler and
Robert Maltpress.
The Mems Club of the Congrega-
tional church gave Ladies Night
and banquet at the church parlors Fri
day evening that proved very enjoy
able affair. About 80 covers were laid

the conclusion a short program was in
troduced, Mr.. Roy F. Wright acting as a
very acceptable POSTMASTER. "Our
Guests" was responded to by John Ma
Whitney, who paid the usual high COM
compliments to the ladies present. Then
DIR. A. p. Nicholson sketched the origin
of the Mems Club, its objects and the
history of its accomplishments. A solo
was then sung by Freeman Lyons, and
Mr.. L. G. Whittet spoke very entertain
ingly of "Men's Rights" The most
by Mrs. T. B. Earle upon the topic of
'-.Our Hosts" receiving most liberal ap-
plause. The president, J. J. Pearson,
spoke of the Mems Club as helpful or
ganization, while the closing address of
the evening was made by Rev. L. A.
Parr, who spoke of 1.-THE Sex in Relig-
lon." He called attention to the great
distinction between the ancient and
modern ideas of the work women were
expected to do in the church, and with
out fear of having his orthodoxy ques-
toned he believed the bible failed to
recognize woman as helpful factor in
church work she deserved.
