Perfect Through suffering.

God never would sendyou the darkness
If he felt you could bear the light
But you would not cling to his guiding
hand
If the way were always bright;
And you would not care to walk by
faith
Could you always walk by sight.
'Tis true ne has many an anguish
For your sorrowful heart to bear,
And many a cruel HOMEGROWN
For your tired head to wear;
He knows how few would reach
heaven at all
II pain did not guide them there.
So he sends you the binding darkness,
And the furnace of seven-fold heat
Tis the only way, believe me,
To keep you close to his feet;
For 'tis always so easy to wander
When our lives are glad and sweet.
Then nestle your hand in your fathers
And sing if you can as you go;
Your song may cheer some one be-
hind you,
Whose courage is sinking low,
And, well, If your lips do culver
God will love you better so.

FROM MINNESOTA.
Interesting Letter by Mrs. Math-

Dorset, Mimi, July 49, 1909
Dear Editor:
Thinking my friends and read
crs of the Message would like
to hear from me, and not having
the time, and it being too labor
Gus n task to write 10 each, / take
this plan of sending my many Au-
drain county friends a few lines
Leaving Mexico on the 3lst of
May, | arrived at my destination
the next evening, June 1st. We
were met at the station, and went
right to our own place. My hus-
band, Mr.. NJ, had hurriedly piled
things in the house before leav-
ing. lie had not yet finished the
house, and had so much to do thai
it has almost been like camping,
the difference we have a good
roof over us.
We have a good place. situated
on the bank of Elbow lake, one OF
the most beautiful lakes in cen
trail MINI. In fact, from what ]
can learn from the statements
made from those who have visited
different resorts, the scenes along
the shore, the lake having no
visable outlet, are wonders that
are not met with in others of the
Central States.
Our house stands on the bank
Of the lake, where we can have
a fine view of the lake.
1t has been very dry here this
summer, and as our ground is
new and dry, our garden has not
done much. We have had fine
summer weather. otherwise We
have had but few warm days and
nights. 1t is pleasant to sleep.
when the mosquitoes do not both
cr too much. The mosquitoes have
not been as bad as they are some
times in the lake regions.
It has been too dry for ,hc wild
fruit. Strawberries would hay"
been good crop had it not been
50 dry. The bluebcrrios have also
been cut short from the same
cause; Mr.. NJ. has cleared near
four acres; ne has blocked off
about seven acres which he will
get cleared this season.
Fishing has been good in the
lake. Morris has kept us supplied
the greater part Of the time. The
fish here are rock-bass, perch,
SuniSh, black-baSS, pickreI. black
sucker and muSkelOnge.
We do our trading at Nevis, a
small town about six miles dis.
tant. ON the east end of the lake
Mr.. NJ. makes the trip with boat
Last Saturday while making the
trip in company with a neighbor
caught three nice muSkelongs anC
s@ccecdcd in landing two whici
they brought home. The muski,
is game fish. One that is no
always easy to land when he il
caught on the hook.
We all have splendid appetite
and can eat anything Food tina
e we did not relish in Missouri w
relish with pleasure.
: Fever and ague are unknowl
4 here, and but few or seldom an.
t cases Of pneumonia. Pulmonar
troubles have been permanent
p relieved in this climate.

T. D. Campbell was resident OF

Zen last Tuesday night with pneumo-
MIA. He was taken to the st. Paul

gress of the disease that he died ere

MORAN AND MURPHY
Will Furnish the Entertainment at {
Boxing Bout Before the National
Athletic Club Tonight.

Special to the Herald.
New York, Jan. 29.-Owen Moran,
the clever English featherweight, aud
Tommy Murphy. the New York light
weight, are to appear in the star box
ing bout of the entertainment tonight
at the National Athletic Club. They
are scheduled to fight ten rounds.
No bout scheduled for the metropol-
itan district in a long time has
aroused so much interest among the
sporting fraternity as the matching of
Moran and Murphy Long negotia-
lions were necessary before an agree
ment between the two was reached.
The matter of weight furnished the
principal point of dispte. Moran is at
his best at about 126 pounds, while
Murphy prefers to fight at about 1873
pounds. 1t was finally agreed to fix
the weight at $50 pounds at o'clock
If Moran wins over Murphy he will
be in direct line for the championship
and those at the top of his division
can scarcely afford to ignore his chal-
lenge. Since his arrival on this side
the little English fighter has engaged
in numerous bouts and with unvarying
success. Murphy is about the hardest
proposition he has faced. The two
are regarded as pretty evenly match
ed and it is expected they will fur
nish one of the fastest and hardest
bouts seen around New York in a
long time
