Stunning ambition Of the future evan
gellst life to follow in the footsteps OF
many OF his ancestors and become a
lawyer. In one of his ermon Dr..
IorTey gives a vivid picture of boy
MOOD decision which exerted a power
1ul influence over the earlier part Of
his life.
He SAYS: Z remember when 1 was

that and the next thing l can say

1t was the ardent desire of the
young mans mother that he should
preach the gospel rather than be a
lawyer. Many hours were spent by
her in prayer tina this might be the
case, but OutWardly there seemed little
prospects Of it. one night, however,
while a student at Yale College, his
mothers prayers were answered in a
most remarkable manner He himself
describes the occurrence as tolloWs:

as to who DR.. Torrey is. AS to his
great work throughout the world and
ms wonderful success of converting
thousands of souls, it will take vol
unes to tell. The same book, written
by Mr.. Davis tells of his appearance
IN London as follows:
Upon reaching London a great well
come meeting was held in Exeter Hall
which had been arranged by cable

zeal in SOU winning, and witnessing
large umh OF conversions. AT the
close of their work there which was
a prophecy of the great and glorious
work thev had later to accomplish in
London, they received a cordial lnNl-
tation to visit Edinburgh for a four
weeks campaign. Their meetings were
held in synod Hall, which proved too
small to accommodate the thousands
who pressed to hear the eVangelists.
This was a beginning Of a revival
campaign conducted by Dr.. Tcrrey
and Mr.. Alexander throughout the
provincial cities of England, Ireland,
Scotland and Wales. which was with
out a precedent since the work OF
Moody and SankeKm 1851. Nher-
ever they went. to Glasgow, Edinburg.

thousands who daily thrOnged to hear
the men who came to be known
throughout Great Britain as the sue
cessors of Moody and Sankey. During
their three years campaign, nearly
$4,000 people were led to make a con-
fession of faith in Jesus Christ as their
Savior Lord and King.
The success of the ~evangelists' work
was due to their faith in God, their

Keenan-Bordewick

Wednesday morning, January
9th, at 1920 at the Catholic
church at Seward, Kansas, .oc-
Cured the marriage of two of
the highly respected young folks,
when Rev. Father Hremanns of
Great Bend united in marriage,
Mr.. William Bordewick and Miss
Martha Keenan,, both of this To-
cality.
The bride was attended by
her sister, Miss Ruth, and she
was prettily gowned in white
mohair dress. The groom was
attended by Mr.. James Bulger,
and wore a neat suit of broad
cloth. The local. choir assisted
at the nuptial mass.
Immediately after the impress
sive ceremony, the bridal troupe
withdrew to the home of the
grOom's father, Mr.. A. W. BOrde
wick of this place where a boun-
tiful dinner was awaiting.
The bride is the second daugh-
ter of j. j. Keenan, and has
grown to womanhoOd in our
midst, and is held in high IS
TEEN by all who enjoy her ac-
quaintance.
The groom is the youngest
son of A. W. Bordewick and lik /
wise has grown up in this Vi
cinity and is highly respected By
all.
The happy couple left for var-
ions points in the south and the
west, where they will visit rela-
tives for a short time, after
which they will be at home to
their many friends. .
That their path of life be
strewn with roses and Gods bles
ings is our wish.

Senator Longs Come Back.

LII MS ADDRESS before the Kan
sas society in New York last
Thursday, Senator Long made III
following pointed remarks.
Forty-elght years have passed
since Kansas became part of the
union and in all those eventful
years she has done her part to-
ward the. advancement of civil
hzatlon and the progress of the
race. Her people have been act
i've along many lines of human
endeavor, and while they have
lacked the conservatism of the
older states, they have always
been quick to change their posi-
ton when convinced they were
on the wrong side. l have serv.
ed the people of Kansas six
years IN the house Of represen-
tatlVes and six years in the SEN
ate. During that time I have
claimed the right to have opin-
ions OF my own on public cues
lions and to vote and speak in
accordance a. with those opinions.
Twice W, | have been retired from
offlce because l was not in ac-
cord with the prevailing pub
lie opinion at the time in nv
district and state. | was
against free silver in 1896 and
s suffered defeat because my dis
trlct was for it. l have favored
reasonable regulation of railroads
and other corporations in the
senate but have always declined
TO support extreme and radical
measures. For this reason de-
1eat has come to me in the SEN
ate, as it did in the house.
If | had my term to serve
again | would not now take a diff
terent course from that which
l took before. l have no apollo
gles to make to the people of
Kansas for the record that |
have made in the senate. | am
proud OF it, as | was of that
which made in the house. | bow
to the will of the people as ex-
pressed In a party primary in
which members of all parties full
iy and freely participated and
thus produced a result that could
not have been secured if par
tlclpation had been confined to
the members of the party to
which | belong. | am not here
tonight to complain or find fault
with that result. | accept the
decision of the state this time
as | did that of my congression-
al district before. | was right
then and | believe / am right.
now. Time yindicated my posi-
ton then and l expect it to do
so again. l shall return to the
engage in business and in the
practice of my profession. | full
ly appreciate this opportunity
OF being here tonight and l Join
with you in sending greetings to
those who are celebrating the
anniversary in the capital of
our state on the prairies of far

The LaCygne Records expert
testimony as to fried strawber-
rieS: 1--WE remember some years
ago culinary Ananias told us
that fried radishes were simply
delicious. We bit of course,
and insisted that our better half
prepare the new delicacy. She
protested, argued, and at last
sorrowfully consented to humor
our within. She fried a batch
of radishes for dinner. When we
went home we found the doors
and windows wide open, the
family camped out in the alley
with clOthespins clamped on theiI
noses, a flock of buzzards hover
ing above the house, and a smell
like a settlement of glue factor
les, permeating the atmosphere
for blocks around. We buriec
the radishes behind the barn, fun
igated the premises and put in
the next three weeks explaining
the matter to our neighbors, who
thought we had killed one of our
creditors and concealed his re-
mains under the front porch. We
are not experimenting with new
dainties any more, thank you.
Strawberries 'au nature are good

If you would have a safe yet
certain Cough Remedy in the
home, try DR.. Shoop's-at least
once. 1t is thoroughly unlike any
other Cough preparation. Its
taste will be entirely new to
you-unless it is already your f,
vorite Cough Remedy. No opium
chloroform, or any other Supply
ing ingredients are used. The
tender leaves of a harmless, lung
healing mountainous shrub, gives
to DR.. Shops Cough Remedy
its wonderful curative proper
ties. 1t is. truly a most certain
and trustworthy prescription. Tt
is sold by Holmes, Druggist.
