towns from San Antonio as far west

the irrigated valleys and the famous
springs of Del Rio, and a trip into Old

Will give Mexico a better market, and
returns will come to us in many ways
As a stockgrower I am not afraid OF
Mexican cattle ever hurting the Amer
lean producer in the matter OF reducing
prices on young stock sufficiently to
offset his gain in the matter of having
a new supply of cheaper stock cattle
with which to stock mis- pastures. One
Of the drawbacks to this country is the
fact that vast areas of land are too
valuable TO use for stock breeding and
farmers have gone into raising canta
loupes. apples, onions and such things
in preference to breeding calves or
lambs or raising feed for them.

RECIPROCITY WITH

In Speech Before TRANSMITS
siSsippi Commercial Con-
gress 1t is Urged.

San Antonio Texas, Nov. 26.-The
Trans Mississippi Commercial congress
has ended.
On an agreement by delegations from
New Orleans and San Francisco, it was
decided to take the matter of the Pan
the Trans-Mississippi Commercial con-
gress and let the national congress
act
The committee on permanent or
gaDization made its report which
recommended Oklahoma City as the
next place of meeting and nominated
the following officers: President. Fred
w. Fleming, Kansas City; secretary,
Arthur F. Francis, Cripple Creek,
Colo; vice presidents, n. G. Iarimore.

Mexican Reciprocity.
A T. de RicqleS, OF Denver, Colo,
speaking before the congress as a rep
sentative of the American National
Livestock association advocated free
trade with Mexico. He said:
The proposition Of providing meat
food for 9O,000.000 intensely active
Americans of today is indeed a big
one. We are nation that loves the
best of everything and that revels in
its own waste From being a country
famous for its expectations of livestock
and its products, we are fast approach
ing a condition where il will be neces-
sary 10 import meat Development
moves along the lines of least resist
ance- That is perhaps one of the rea-
sons why the production of meat ami
mails is not keeping pace with the con-
sumption thereof AS this country de-
velops. owners of ranches and farms
are seeking and finding various new
ways of utilizing tneir property. Peo-
pie want less hard work. hence when
corn brings so cents or more, it is often
a fact that the farmer sells it for cash
rather than do all the hard work neces-
sary to make fat meat animals to sell
on uncertain markets
Failure on the part of the railways
to furnish cars at shipping points has
caused the loss of millions Q. dollars
and is one of the greatest evils of the
transportation system today. The rail-
ways are very closely connected with
the matter Of the food supply of the
country, and this is just as good a
place as any for me to announce what
think is an important statement,

Like Him.

Change into His imagei Not per-
fectly-oh, eve perfectly in this
world.
The reflected image of the sun In
the lakes is very different from the
sun in the heavens. If he cas- to
shine, as when a cloud passes owe
his face, the image in the water Is
lost. If you disturb the smooth sur
face of the lake, the likeness of the
sun will be broken into glimmering
fragments. Still 1t is the image OF
the sun. So it is with Christ's like
ness in the heart of the believer. II
a cloud of unbelief or worldliness
comes between the image vanishes.
When the heart is troubled by doubt
or fear or sudden calamity. how bro
ken the likeness often is! But,
whether dimly or brightly appearing,
it is likeness to Jesus still.
And be not discouraged, dear
Christian soul, If, after all these
years, you can see nothing of the
beautiful image in yourself. Let it
comfort your heart to reflect that
Jesus may see His likeness where we
can hardly discern it at all, just as
the portrait of a child will sometimes
seem better to a parents eye than to
a strangers. There are touches or
resemblance which only love can see.
Not that this should content us. We
ought not to be satisfied with a like
ness which only the eye of God can
see. We must aim to be so like Christ
that all the world can see Him in US.

BAPTIZED With Fire.

When a lecturer On electricity
wants to show an example OF a hui
man body surrounded by fire, he
places a person On a stool with glass
legs. The glass serves to isolate him
from the earth, because it will not
conduct the fre-the electric fluid.
Were 1t not for this, however much
might be poured into his frame, it
would be carried away by the eaTth,
but when thus isolated from it he re-
tains all that enters him. You see no
fire, you hear no fire, but you are
told that it is pouring into him. Pres
emily you are challenged to the proof,
asked to come near and hold your
hand close to his person; when you
do so, a spark of fire shoots out to-
ward you.
If thou, then, wouldst have thy
soul surcharged with the fire of God,
so that those who come near thee
shall feel some mysterious influence,
proceeding out from thee, thou must
draw nigh to the source of that fire,
to the throne of God and of the Lamb
and shut thyself out from the world
that cold world which SO swiftly
steals our fire away. Enter into thy
closet. and shut to thy door," and
there. isolated before the throne"
await the baptism; then the fire shall
fill thee; and when thou contest
forth holy power will attend thee,
and thou shalt labor, not in thine
own strength, but with "demonstra-
ton of the Spirit, and with power"
Rev. w. Arthur.

dreamed about it. He wrote it with
His own blood. He wrote 1t so clear
ly that the world could not mistake
its meaning. 1t blazed out with a
divine intensity and illumined a very
sinful and weary soul. 1t was the
divine word forgiveness.
We little realize what this word
meant to the world in that day. Their
gospel had been ian eye for an eye
and a tooth for a tooth" This word
struck a new note in their religious
life. Jesus mounted upon the cross
and with one mighty sweep He
brushed away all the trappings of the
Mosaic law. Its ceremonies and puri-
fyings now became a dead letter. He
burst open the Holy of Holes and
made it possible for every repentant
soul to approach God. He revealed
that for which the centuries had been
looking. He manifested that for
which the heart had been hungry
the love of God. Never again need
the world doubt Gods love. From
every valley and hillside and hamlet
1 see the weary, burdened people
pushing their way toward the cross,
to find refuge under its shadow and
to seek forgiveness through its SUBJ
lime sacrifice. 1t is the greatest mes
sage of the ages.
How much this forgiveness near
to the world today 1t touches every
phase of our lives. 1t comes to the
conscience and places the enormity of
sin by its side and shows its estimate
in the light of Biblical standards. 1t
comes to the intellect, and, with the
authority of Him who made the in
t~ellect, reveals the true way to the
Fathers heart. 1t comes to the heart
and with an infinite pathos and power
shows the love and mercy of the in
finite God. 1t fits every side of our
lives. Christ forgives every mean ac-
ton, every sinful deed, every neg
lected duty, and every unkind word.
He forgives the sins we have COM
mitted against ourselves, against
brothers and against our God. He
blots them out so completely that
neither our own fearfulness, o u
strong enemies power, nor u self
reproach can reveal them. He buries
them so deep that nothing in heaven
or in earth can ever resurrect them.
Dig down as deep as you can and you
will never find wen the skeleton of
the lifeless dust of your sins. The
evil heart which is the fountain of
sin will be purified and made white
as the snow, so that forever after
there will issue forth pure and right
eous actions. The old familiar hymn
states the Christians experience
beautifully:
My God is reconciled,
His pardoning voice l hear,
He owns me for His child,
I can no longer fear,
With confidence I now draw near,
And Father, Abba, Father cry.

Veteran Finds Pins in Flesh.

rheumatism" that produces black
headed pins under the skin is a pecu-
liar sort of ailment from which Geo.
R. Hall, a Civil War veteran, of Rock
away, has suffered twice in four
months. He recovered from the sec
ond attack when he drew from his
right wrist a pin of large size and re-
duced the pain he had felt for weeks.
He had been treating his wrist for
rheumatism. Four months ago Hall
had a similar attack of rheumatism"
in the left shoulder. After trying lin
iments without easing the pain he
was surprised to find a pin sticking
out of his shoulder.
