The Evening Sermon.

The gospel read contains a most touch
ing example of the merciful goodness OF
our Lord for the afflicted and one of
nigh moral Importance for all souls that
are wandering from the road of saliva
ton.
"A poor blind man, learning from the
crowd that Jesus was passing. appealed TO
him for mercy In fulfillment of the
prophecies, Jesus was making his last
journey to the city of Jerusalem. So ar
dent and strong was the faith of the blind
beggar that, notwithstanding the remon-
stranceS Of the crowd. he only cried much
more, Jesus, have mercy
His misery, coupled with his great
thy sight Thy faith hath made thee
whole. In performing this miracle the
all-seeing eye of the God man extended
into the future. 1t was to show future
generations that His omnipotent power
would be always exercised in behalf of
suffering humanity. Looking down the
vale of time through future generations,
he foreSaw that after his departure from
earth the church. his mystical body, or
rather Himself mystically and efficiently,
would be doing His work by healing all
the infirmtties of the soul She would be
climbing the rugged hillside, and extend
ing her search into the fastneSs of the
mountains for the lost sheep, facing the
danger of the battlefield, or entering the
camp of the plague-Stricken people to
prepare souls for heaven. with only one
condition imposed, namely, that they ack-
nowledge their infirmities and cry like the
beggar mentioned in the gospel, Lord.
have mercy upon me-
Simple as this condition is, it is very
often denied on the part of the sinner.
The blind meudicant. learning that jesus
was passing, Immediately gave up beg
ging and sought relief from his infirmity.
The sinner hears the footsteps of Jesus
either through the gentle promptings of
conscience or through the sudden and
unexpected death of some friend or rela-
tive. 1t is a notice served on him, and
he can not fail to realize his own sad
state. Still he fails in his duty. and re-

Why Was Faith Lost.


ITO this same person may be
propounded a very pertinent question,
namely, how came that faith to be well
nigh lost? That faith received in baptism,
developed on the knees of a piOus mother,
intensified by the ardent offering morn
ing and night OF prayer to God, later on
sealing his pure friendship with his
Savior in first communion and becoming
a soldier of the cross through the sacra-
ment of confirmation. The faith of the
future unbelieVeT was then as fresh and
unsullied as the lily of the valley. But,
later on, the storm of passion broke out,
and the lily, no longer watered by the
pious practices of other days could not
resist the shock and wilted before the
burning rays of passion Possibly, at
first. there was a severe struggle before
faith yielded Certain 1t is that faith
was not driven away till passion con-
Quered the viii, and the supernatural life
of the soul was destroyed. The sinner
has only himself and infidelities to re-
proach for the loss of that precious talent
which God gave him, and the date of
his loss was when his passions overcame
his will.
For the sinner to say he would gladly
prompted by faith, if sincere, is q de-
ception; for if he realizes his own sad
state, in view of even probable future
life, for which he is i'll prepared, to be
consistent he should select the service
of God and obey his commands The sin
ner, who admits that his present condi-
uon IS a dangerous one in view of a flu
ture life which unbelievers cannot abso-
lutely deny, and which at worst is prob
able, have within themselves all the ele-
ments of faith that are needed for a good
conversion. The intellect forces the con-
clusion that a change of life is the only
wise course to adopt; so the question rests
entirely with the Will. namely, are they
willing to rise from the wayside of crime,
go to Jesus and say: Be merciful to me,
a sinner That is all that is needed
Every honest soul must admit that the
will is the great stumbling block to con-
version. The mere probability, nay. even
possibility, of a future life is sufficient
for the intellect to decide in favor of the
practice of virtue. But the will. that is
the heart and passions, in a word. the
practice which is strictly consistent with
the dictates of a believing mind consti-
tute the unsurmountable obstacles to
numberless conversions. That is the
reason why persons refuse to be practical
They know they are doing wrong and
have not the will to resist. They realize
their sad state, know that they have
strayed, like the lost sheep far into the
mountains and hope some day to re-
trace their steps. But each day the will
grows weaker, the chasm which SEN
arates them from God grows wider. fin
the. cup of their iniGuity is filled, and
justice demands satisfaction No more
pleading then, all is in the hands of a
Just God who will treat each person ac-
cording to his deserts"

Sinners Lack Liqht.

"Eucircled by such motives and en-
shaved by his passions. the sinner moves
through life in circutous path with no
light to direct him. and darkness always
ahead of him. rather than choose to walk
in the road of life by the light of the sun.
What are the reasons for such unWise
selection? Why refuse to bridge over the
abyss that separates the soul from God?
Why refuse TO listen and follow the
promptings of conscience? Some of the
reasons given are: First. that God does
not give the necessary help to abandon
sin. The charge is old, being first made
by the father of the human race in para
disc.
ITO vindicate the mercy of God, we take
as an illustration the case of the habitual
sinner. We suppose a soul that has for
many years made sin its companion
through life, and in which remorse sur
vived. At certain intervals it realizes
its own misery. which causes a weak de-
termination or half will to return to the
service of God. That sinner. when ques-
toned, will answer, that very willingly
would he return to a life of virtue, or
the practice of religion. but he has no
faith. He can not see. therefore. not
wishing 10 ct the hypocrite. he does not
act. He has even at times prayed for
the faith which once conSoled him. and in
which he found real happiness. Now, it
being extinct, and being. as it is, a gift
of God, he must wait till God enkindles

Mitchell Wants Good Roads

Mitchell-The good roads idea has
set in hard in this city and county
and during the summer months a large
sum Of monev will doubtless be ex-
pended in work and in buying machin-
cry TO keep the roads good. A good
roads committee has been organized
in the county with VIM. NJ. Smith,
president of the Mitchell National
bank. as chairman. The committee is
cooperating with the towns in the
county and with the farmers, many Of
whom show a disposition to contrib
uate to good roads. In this city 81 900
has been raised for the project and in
Mt. Vernon $3.50 has been contributed.
The county commissioners have shown
a great friendliness toward the pro-
ject and has ordered an elevator grad
err. and If ii works satisfactorily one
will be purchased for each comm's-
sioner district-fve in all. The city
council has contributed 5000 to help
build a model piece Of road in the
southern part Of the city.

Tin Output at Gertie

Hill City-Within the next few
weeks, the Gertie Tin mining company
Will be producing at a profit tin in
a new 100-ton mill which has a shat
500 feet deem and the vein of ore Is
about nine feet thick. The ore will
average about two per cent tin which
is equal to about $12 per ton at the
present price Of tin. The old Harvey
Peak Tin company which attempted to
mine the tin in this district twenty
years ago and made a failure because
Of mismanagement, has been reorgan-
lied and is now known as the Pahasa
mining company. 1t is now doing ex-
tensive development work on several
old properties in this vicinity and re-
duction plants will be built this sum-
mer when sufficient ore is blocked out.
In another tin bearing district north
west of here the linton Mining COM
many is about to start operating q
200-ton tin mill which made success
full experiments last summer. The tin
at that mine will average about one
per cent and Is found in a very large
vein.

GERMANY AND
+. CANADIAN WHEAT
LOOKS TO THE CANADIAN WEST
FOR HER SUPPLY.

A dispatch from Winnipeg, Mantle.
ba, dated March IS, 1910 says: That
Germany is anxious to secure a share
of Canadian wheat to supply her i'm
ports of that cereal The recent ad-
justment of the trade relations with
Germany has made it possible to carry
on a Canadian-German trade with
much fewer restrictions than in the
past, and considerable development
of trade between the two Countries
is now certain. The great men of
the United States are alive to the
Wheat situation in this Country now,
and there is consequently the deepest
interest in every feature that will
tend to increase and conserve the
wheat supply. With it's present $780,
600, 600 bushel production of wheat
and all efforts to increase 1t almost
unavailing, and the rapidly growing
consumption of it's increasing popula-
ton, there is certainly the greatest
reason for the anxiety as to where the
wheat is to come from that will feed
the nation. The United States will
be forced as Germany is to look to
the Wheatfields of Canada. One
province alone raised last year one
eighth as much as the entire produc-
ton Of the United States, and but a
twelfth of the wheat area has yet been
touched. The Americans who have
gone to Canada, are to-day reaping
the benefit of the demand for Canadi.
an wheat and they will continue to
join in the benefits thus reached for
a great many years. Splendid yields
are reported from the farms of that
Country, and from land that the Gov
eminent gives away in 100 acre
blocks, and from other lands that
have been purchased at from $12 to
SIS an acre. John Munter, near Eye
brow, Saskatchewan, a former resi-.
dent of Minnesota says:
Last fall got over 80 bushels of
wheat to the acre and had 30 acres of
It; also 20 acres spring breaking on
20 bushels per acre. Had 20 acres
In oats and got 20 bushels per acre
and 500 bushels potatoes on one and
three quarter acre, and can therefore
safely say that l had a fine crop and
am well satisfied with my homestead"
He is considered but a small farmer,
but he will be n Of the big farmers.
some of these days. There are many
others, hundreds of others, whose
yields were beyond this, and whose
average under crop was vastly
greater. The story Of the experience
of American farmers in the Canadian
West is a long one. The time to go,
would appear to be now, when splen-
did selections may be made, and
where land a be purchased at prices
that will be doubled in a couple Of
years.

Rare Old Hymnal

Watertown-One of the priceless
volumes in the library of Mrs. NJ. w.
Gunnison is a hymnal which was in
use in England over one hundred
years ago. The book is stained with
age, but the print is still very re2d-
able. The songs in the book are var
led, not having the sympathy and
fervor that is noticed in the sacred
music of today. The book could not
be used in service today because near
ly all of the songs are in some way
connected with historic events. One
song gives praise for the destruction
of the Spanish Armada, while another
tells of the hand of God in delivering
the king and queen from the gunpow-
der plot.

express charges are higher than II
we had bought a place nearer the
city, both feed and labor are cheaper.
My flock comprises 1900 fowls.
My reason for buying day-old chicks
is that they save time when you be-
gin late in the spring and that first
season we had spent so much money
that We did LOT feel that we were able
TO buy i~ncubators. The second spring
/ bought three ~incubators with a ca
pacity of 400 eggs each.
AS we were not then able to build
an incubator cellar we cleared out
n of the back rooms in our dwell
ing house, closed the east windows
and put in the incubators. This proved
a successful and convenient arrange
ment. The following year we built
the cellar after plans used at college.
The brooder houses are all on run
ners and as soon as the young chicks
no longer need heat the covers are re-
moved and the roosts put in. So long
as the chicks are young enough to
need heat the brooders are kept near
the house and l have planted a hedge
as a ~windbreak that will be an addi-
tional protection for them.
In the spring as soon as the corn
is large enough the brooder houses
with the first Matching of chicks are
rolled into the field and the chicks
have free range all the summer. When
later matches come on the first hatch
is transferred to a cheaply built shack
and the brooder house moved back
into the yard for the young chicks. OF
course this a be done with the other
matches as often as ii is necessary.
One of the many good things I
ness is as necessary for the health
and happiness of poultry as it is for
human beings. Besides giving my
poultry pens a general cleaning ev-
cry month ! give them a thorough
overhauling and fumigation twice a
year, spring and fall.
My chickens are the white rose
comb Leghorns. These birds are not
so large as other breeds and for that
reason do not bring as much in the
market, but they more than make up
the difference in the number of eggs
they lay. Their meat is sweet, close
grained and unsurpassed for table
use. They are good foragers and as
for laying ] don't believe they have
ever been surpassed.
In buying a country home our OBJ
ject was to cheaper the cost of living
and get an out-of-door life for me. 1t
has cut our grocery and meat bill
down more than two-thirds. Keeping
one COW, We not only never buy but
ter, milk or cream, but have all three
to sell.
We have owned the farm five years
and while our returns haven't wiped
out the first cost they have lessened
1t so much that the interest on the
balance would not pay one-sixth of the
yearly rental we were paying in New
York. My friends are always asking
IL l do not die Of loneliness. In reply
l tell them | have a saddle horse and
a tennis court and am a member of
a golf club. ! should be very sorry to
be forced to return to live in the city
and would only do 1t from force of
circumstances.
