Here is n little poem by Ella
Wheeler Wilcox, which has much
of the philosophy of life in n small
space:
Words are great forces in the realm
OF life;
BE careful of their use. Who
talks of hate,
OF poverty and sickness but sets
rife
Those very elements to mar his
fate.
When love, health, happiness and
plenty hear
Their names repeated over day by
day,
They wing their way, like answer
ing fairies near,
Then nestle down within our homes
To stay.
Who talks of evil cOnjures into
shape
The formless thing, and gives it
life and scope.
This Is the law: Then let no word
escape
That does not breathe of cverlast-
ing hope.

souls gathered in the church to pay
respect to this young boy whose
presence among us has been of such
widespread influence. As the cas-
kct was brought down the aisle, the
chancel formed bower OF fragrant
beauty, flowers in rich profusiOn,
the offerings of loving hearts who
realize the agony of that distant
mother.
Not soon shall we forget the ten
der, loving, fearful words of that
most Christ-like man, VIM. Court.
Like great-hearted elder brother,
he spoke Of The Boy" to whom he
has been IA Il very angel of pence in
these last days. Who of us can re-
allie the agony Of that dread malta
| dy, Inconsistencies, the awful desc
| latinn, the ycarning which in time
becomes unbcarahlc, and even the
/ strong wavcr, while the weak fan,
/ crushed and helpless. Only twenty
years old, away from mother and
/ tempted only through love ct her,
To this mother Brother Court re-
! frrrcd IN most tender regard lie
said that personally hr iclt content
( to lcav" Guy in Gods hands, a. the
! Fathers heart Is too tender aud
lowing to withhold his blessing and
saving grace, even though the long.
ing son may yet Ice a great way
oil. " He said, al feel that have
had one of the richest experiences
in my life in these days of communi,
cation with the dear boy, and | an
n better man because of II y We
can but be grateful for the presence
among us of man who deems ii Il
privilege to he about his Father
business, even though the way lies
among those unfortunate ones.
On one occasion the lad, upon he.
ing asked If anything more could be
done for him, reached forth his hand
saying, ooh, no; you have been too
good to me-" This was the spirit in
which every attention was received
As a fitting close to a memorable
service, II procession of - or 30 peo-
pie, with arms full of flowers, fol-
lowed the casket from the church to
the undertaking parlors, whore they
were placed in loving reverence
upon the casket. "Inasmuch as We
have done it unto the least of these,
my brethren, We have done it unto
Me"

there is a mushy stuff that is not

In recent convention OF medical
men in Chicago, tonsils were de-
cidcd to be n very unnecessary part
Of the throat, and the cutting out of
them was advocated, especially
where there was n tendcnCF to tu-
berculosis. They were considered
as being n good breeder of microbes
and medium for the spread Of ton
silitis and diptheria, and 1t was
claimed that their removal would
render the number of these diseases
very much less.

Next to the Catholic church, the
Episcopal church is considered the
most formal. and it's rectors are
great sticklers for the pruprieties in
church. The rector of All Episco-
pal Church In Newark, New Jer-
sey, tired of looking from the pulpit
into Il sea of feathers and flowers,
has requested chats off" in church,
and the result has pleased not only
the rector but the majority of the
congregation. People do grow out OF

A countryman went into New York

didn't get 1t. The merchant said he

AMONG STRANGERS.

Guy II. Laymon, whose home was
Port Allegheny, Pa, died at the
residence of Mrs. Elizabeth Sea-
baugh, in Pennington, of pneu-
monia, on Sunday, May %, 1909,
aged 20 years. He was under charg.
es of forging II check at Bonne
Terre and was being held here for
trial when taken sick. His youth
and the circumstances under which
the act was committed, aroused the
sympathy of many of our good peo-
pie, who took deep interest in his
case. His body was forwarded to
his former home for intcrmcnt after
funeral services were held at the
Southern Methodist Church Tues.
day.
Rev. VIM. Court, pastor of the
NJ, +. Church, South, who was with
him almost constantly during hi,
illness, has handed us the following
statement for publication:
Guy came out here hccaus" of
the reported wealth in the Lead
Belt. Homc->irkncSs drove him 10
do the act which brought him into
our midst. lie showed evidence oi
good home training, and it is known
that his family is prominent. His
father and mother, brother and sis.
ter, ARE left to mourn his sad demise,
The community here did all they
could to brighten his sick room
Though among strangers he lacked
no attention. Flowers were sent Ia
his room, and everyone was inter.
ested in "the boy" as he became
known among us. He tried in his
weakness to give himself to the Sa-
ui0r. He told one who prayed with
MIN that ne had been praying, too.
When asked what last message he
would send to Lis mother, he an
swered, Tell her | said God bless
her
"The funeral services were held
at the NJ +. Church, South, at II
O'Clock Tuesday morning. A pro-
fusion of beautiful roses, peonics
and carnations were sent in, show
ing the tender sympathy of our
hearts. These flowers were placed
on the casket In the outer box, and
are intended to bring message Of
comfort to his mother, that she may
know that the mother hearts of
Pennington feel deeply for her in
this sad hour.
1.-THE remains of the dear boy were
sent back to his people, and we
shall not forget that he passed into
eternity, and are comforted with the
assurance that He who d0eth all
things well would not refuse to hear
the feehlest call of "A soul cropping
for light. His ear catches the faint
est whisper, the very breathing of n
longing soul.
"May grace and peace fill the
hearts of the dear ones ut home.
May we who were permitted to do n
little toward helping him to see the
way, be glad in our hearts that we
were counted worthy"
A good mother has also handed in
the following with request for its
publications;
~ pray thee write me down as one who
loves his fellow men.
Such love, rich and broad as the
Master who taught it, marked the
simple but beautiful service on
Tuesday morning which formed the
final chapter in the life of Guy Lay
mon, n young man in whom the en-
tire community has felt deep inter
est.
The story of lads first wander
ing is always sad, but when life
goes out amid such unhappy cir
cumstances no heart can fail to feel
the bitterness of law which must
be fulfilled in the letter, though the
spirit be wholly lacking.

There is always an aftermath
when revival services have been
conducted, and the recent Gypsy
Smith meeting in st. Louis is being
con sidered after the excitement of
the revival is over. There were 800
people converted ut cost Of S32.2l
each. There was IA considerable
sum of money collected, but Gypsy
Smiths hackers in England were
entitled to n certain per cent of the
collections, and they received over
seven thousand dollars, while the
cost of the meetings was little
over eight thousand. But ii was
the opinion of many ministers that
the money was well spent, from the
fact that hundreds of people who
never go inside church were in
duced by the novelty OF the preacher
to attend.

Bible n GuidebOOk.
1.-THE Bible IS a guidebook In righteous
living. The man who goes by the guide
book comes to his large. freest. fullest
llfe-a lie that gives forth the music OF
peace and satisfaction, even as a per-
fectly tuned instrument sives forth its
sweet music.
The Bible does for the man who lives
by its Counsels all that II claims 10 do
Il works; Il stands trial That Is the
fact that makes the Bible as Independent
OF hostile criticisms as are the stars
that keep IN their orbits like shining
sapphires ia their everlasting setting OF
gold. The force OF the Bible can never
be materially diminished until Il can be
shown that the book does not fulfill its
claims. SO long as the Bible IS sound
there, It viii stand any amount OF shocks
elsewhere.
The Bible must stand or fall to-day.
by what It Is IN ITSELF It cannot be
bolstered UP from the outside. BY tho
spiritual transformation Il works IN the
man who lives by its teachings. the Bible
proves itself 20 be so accordant with the
fundamental principles Of mans moral
nature. that the book stands a. the I'm
pregnable rock of the centuries.
The bibles OF the ethnic religions as
compared with the Holy Scriptures. are
as candle flames compared with the blaz-
ing sun; ard when these bibles become
like candles that culver IN their sockets
and go out, the Holy Scriptures, Ike the
sun, will be shining on in all the cloud
less splendor Of noontime"
