AN EVERY DAY SAY 30

Probably the lOnesomest man in
any community is the man who is
honestly and earnestly trying to do
something Tor his fellow man. Even
if anybody knows of his efforts and
really appreciates these. he is quite
sure to be the only man in the COM
munity who will not be told of this
appreciation. hence he may become
discouraged. himself gradually be
caught up by the stream of indiffer-
ence, be swept away with it and the
community has lost one of its most
valuable assets.
That was splendid idea that was
inaugurated by Dr. Orr at the evan
gelistic meeting last Sunday morn
ing in the United Presbyterian church
when he conducted what he called
Say So meeting. After his splen-
did talk upon the topic. Breaking
the Alabaster Box" and while the
choir was singing softly one of Dav-
Ids Psalms he requested that if any
one in the audience had ever been
helped in any way to be a better man
or woman by some other person, 10
go to that person and say so. II the
expression could not be made in
words, warm hand-clasp would tell
the story just as well. There was
then scene such as has never been
witnessed in Greeley before; men
and women rushing about in the
vast audience hunting for each othe.
to say word of appreciation. The
heart of many an uDassuming and
obscure man or woman was surprised
and cheered by an unexpected hand.

and life at once began to assume
larger proportions for them.
We may look at this coldly at this
distance and say it was largely 8
play of emotions, but it was play :"
the deepest and best emotions in the
human heart. unselfish, human sym

and practised consistently and per

THE LATE GEORGE Il. necoxss.

tanned a serious loss In the death of
George H. McCombs. He was a quiet
man. reserved in measure. but gen.
TAI In manner. kind at heart. and
ever ready to do his duty In any po-
sition to which he was called. II any
man was ever suprememly devoted to
duty. he was In the highest and
broadcast sonse. For more than eigh-
teen years he occupied a confidential
and iaborious position with The Adj
vertiser. Long, long ago, he so fully
demonstrated his capacity. hts high
sense OF honor and answering intcg.
rity as to cause his employers to
grieve for the death not only Of a
devoted business associate, but one
who knit himself closely around theic
hearts. 1t is with feelings Of deepest.
sorrow that we announce his death.
but there is sweet pleasure in re-
calling the many years OF association
that passed without hasty word or
unpleasant episode. In another place
fuller tribute is paid to his life and
character. but we cannot refrain from
laying this editorial expression of af-,
fectionate regard before the readers

QUEER REMEDIES.

Strange remedies are often pre-
scribed for certain human ailments;
remedies that In some cases at least
are little If any better than the dis
ease they are to cure. Take rheuma-
tism. as an example. We have long
been assured that blessings will re-
Iieve the excruciating pains of that
disease. We have never tried it or
seen IT tried. and don't know what ef-
feet such treatment would have. Per-
haps the good It does is to make the
patient forget for the time that there
Is such thing as rheumatism. We
have never tried that complaint, but
we have tried bee-stings. and we
should think that IL must be a severe
pain that could be aiIeviated by such
means. And yet we have seen people
suffering such agonies from rheuma-
tism that they would have been will
ing to try anything that gave hope of
relief.
Then we are told of late that the
bite or sting of the centipede Is an
other certain relief for rheumatism.
We have been led to believe that. the
centipede is a deadly insect. and If
that is true wherein is the sufferer re-
lieyed or benefited by being bitten or
stung by one of them? We suppose
1t would hardly be argued that suicide
by this method is to be preferred to
the disease; or 1t may be that cent?
pedes are not as bad as they are rep
resented. and that in some way an APP
plication of them will cure rheumatics.
At any rate, that is one of the latest
remedies
Now we see 1t stated that limberger
cheese is a cure for cancer. We are
not informed whether the remedy is
to be applied externally or internally,
but we do know that a great many
people would want the most positive
assurance before thew would consent
to apply the remedy. Cancer is one
of the most horrible diseases that
humanity is subject to. and anything
that promises hope of relief will be
tried, we have no doubt So it may
come about that persons afflicted
with cancer may take to iimberger as
a diet or an emollient and be relieved,
even If they are compelled to hold
their noses while the remedy is being
used. But that reminds us Of The Bal
timore Suns strong defense of lin
berger, part of which runs this way:
1t has been a commonplace of OBJ
servation, indeed. for hundreds OF
years that limburger cheese has re-

There is great deal Of speculation
as 70 whether or not, when Theodore
Roosevelt returns from Africa, he will
claim 10 have discovered anything. 1t
IS safe to assume, however. that IL he
does. the man who raises a question
regarding the discovery will require
set OF Jackscrews to keep 1t from fall
ing.
We see chance for a real circus in
this suggestion. If Roosevelt comes
back with the claim that he has made
some wonderful discovery. as he prob
ably will. and some prominent man
disputed IT. we may expect language
stunts that will make Peary-Cook
look like thirty cents. or less.

WAS TT pnoFANEs

Sometimes preacher will say
something that sounds strange. how
ever effective the language may be.
1t is related Of Henry Ward Beecher
that on an intensely hot day he arose
in hts pulpit. mopped his brow and re-
marked, IT'S damned hot" After
somewhat painful pause he added:
That's what heard a man on the
street say just now" While he may
thus have relieved himself of any
charge of profanity. his expression
shocked some Of his hearers. We are
reminded of this by reading what
prominent Presbyterian minister said
at a meeting Of church workers held
at Columbus. O. They were discuss
in the dangers that beset boys, and
the need of using means to counteract
those evils. ITO accomplish this great
result" he said. I'VE must pray to
God and work like the DEVIL"
Was that an improper or profane
expression? Perhaps the answer may
be based on the point of view. or on
the meaning of the minister. The ex-.
preston was not profane. but very
likely It shocked some OF the listeners
willis 1t may have only amused 9TH
ers. But is 1t not fair to suppose that
the speaker was referring to the be-
lief or the supposition that Satan is
always busy, and that IL we wish to
accomplish results we should pray to
God for aid ana at the same time I'M
itate the devils activity and indus
try. So looking at 1t. the minister's
somewhat fiippant remark was really
an exhortation TO his hearers not to
weary in their efforts Tor the cause
they were discussing. In fact. it was
not profanity or undue levity, but
call TO duty and advice as to the
method OF performing that duty.

SATURDAY. NOVEMBER .. 1909.
MAKE THE MAJORITY OVER.
wHELNING.

The men of Alabama who are ear
nestly opposing the dangerous amend
ment to the Constitution should not
allow their confidence that they have
won the fight. lull them into inactiy-
ity The peace and welfare Of Ala
bama are dependent upon the defeat
Of this measure. one of the most bare
faced political schemes ever concocted
BY desperate politicians.
II Is apparent at this time that the
voters of Alabama have penetrated
the disguise of the so-called moral
issue" and that notwithstanding the
support OF some good and sincere
men. the amendment 10 badly beat
ZEN, No effort shoald be spared TO
make the majority big and over
whelming. No State since the war
has SO suffered from agitation, as
Alabama has. From one state OF tur-
moiI the people of Alabama have been
rushed into newer and louder state
b0f political noise and excitement. The
way to stop agitation is to silence the
lagitators.
The men who will suffer most po-
litically by the defeat of the amend
ment are the men who have been re-
sponsible for the unfortunate condi-
Etions Of Alabama in the past three
years. Their leaders claim that the
adoption OF the amendment would be
an endorsement of what they had
done. Conversely. a rejection Of the
amendment means reputation of
the reckless government ana political
pickering Of the. past three years.
When the agitators are siIenced then
only win agitation cease.
There are many men in Alabama
who. while qualified to vote. have
never taken sufficient interest in pol
ftics to go to the polls. This is one
time. in which every single man with
a vote has a duty to perform. Every
single vote possible should be cast for
the peace. the prosperity and the well
fare OF the state.
