May 2S-Micah's Picture Of Uni.

May 28--MlcahS Picture or Uni
versal Peace. Micah T. Is.
We have for our lesson this week
verses from the book of Micah. He is
classed in the bible as one of the
minor prophets, and yet many things
he said were of much Importance. He
is said to be man who lived in the
country, and SO drew many of his H.
lived over 700 years before Jesus was
born. Micah has the distinction of
being the prophet to foretell the place
at which the Savior was to be born.
lit will be remembered that when
Herod the king called the learned
Jews into counsel and demanded from
them to tell him the place where the
Christ was to be born, they at once
called to mind and quoted the words of
Micah as found in the fifth chapter
and second verse: "Thou Bethlehem
in the land of Juda are not the least
among the princes of Juda, for out of
thee shall come Governor, that shall
rule my people Israel" This prophecy
alone is sufficient to give honor to
him forever.
Micah said many other good things.
Among these was his denunciation in
the beginning of the second chapter
of those that devise iniquity, and
work evil upon their beds. tvhen the
morning is light, they practice it, be-
cause it is in the power of their hand,
for they covet fields and houses and
take them away, so they Cypress a
man and his house" Micah calls out
"Woe to them" 1t was this prophet
who stated in the sixth chapter and
eighth verse what can well be called
a simple and true setting forth Of the
demands of God from us in these
words: What doth Jehovah require
of thee, but to do justly and to love
kindness, and to walk humbly with
thy God?"
Our lesson this week, however, takes
up the picture of universal peace as
found in the fourth chapter. He tells
of time when the people shall beat
their swords into plowshares; and
their spears into pruning hooks, nation
shall not lift up sword against
nation, neither shall they learn war
any more" When it is remembered |
that these words were spoken in times
when war, carnage and invasion were
in the minds of all peoples, |
to much credit cannot be given to
the man who uttered them. He was
indeed inspired with insight into what
the religion of the bible would in time
bring about.
p 1t is most fitting that the world
this lesson on universal peace,
should be studied when the great
nations of the United States and Great
Britain are about to make a treaty

MAGNANlMITY.

Certainly no one can charge that the
old-line republicans of Iowa have not
been magnanimous, and that as a
whole they have not been loyal to the
party.
1t was standpat votes which elected
Kenyon, progressive, to the United
States senate, and again standpat
votes nominated Judge Green, pro-
gressive, to congress. Some papers,
like the Marshalltown Times-Repub-
lican, seem to try. to make it as hard
as possible for stalwart republicans
to remain loyal. The truth is that
the stalwarts are republicans first
and factionalists afterwards, while
progressives of the Marshalltown
Times-Republican stripe are faction
alists all of the time.
In the Tenth district united bolt
on the part of the stalwarts would
we'll nigh elect a democrat. There is
no talk of such action, however, and
Luefe Will Ue none, uuleSS Ile Sldl-
warts are goaded to it by such bitter
utterances as those made by some pro-
gressive men and newspapers.
The republicans of Iowa are almost
a unit in opposition to Canadian reci-
procity. This is real victory for the
stalwarts and is vindication of their
unchanged position. The progressives
under the lead of Senator Cummins
talked loud and long in favor of free
trade with Canada, it was this flood of
oratory which persuaded the president
to give the people that which they
apparently wanted When it came
down to brass tacks," however, the
progressives found that they were
hoist On their own petard, and but one
of them, Hubbard, has had the nerve
to vote the way he talked. This is
practical victory for the stalwarts, a
victory of principle which is more i'm
portant than any mere victory of
spoils.

" which war between them will be

by which war between them will be
impossible. Those familiar with cur
rent events will know that during this
month of May, 1911, President Taft
has presented to the English govern
ment a treaty which, if ratified, will
cause all disputes, be they what they
may, arising between the two coun-
tries, to be settled by the internation-
al tribunal which sets at The Hague.
This is most wonderful thing. There
is thought that France also may join
in the agreement. The idea is even
too great for Ex-President Roosevelt
who says it cannot be carried out. He
scorns the thought that two great
nations will ever seriously say that I'M
der no circumstances will they go to
war to decide disputes between them.
Many will remember that Chill and
Argentine were about to engage in war
over their boundary line. Happily,
strife was averted by mutual conces-
sions on the part of each nation. 1t
is reported that when the affair was
finally settled a large statue of the
Christ was erected on the line and it
was agreed that no soldiers be placed
to see that the agreement was kept.
1t is a magnificent triumph for the
religion OF Jesus Christ when the
two leading nations of the world,
whose people profess to be guided by
bible standards, resolve never to fight
any more, to abide by the will of a

NOT AFTER THIRD TERM.

Some of the friends of Hon. Frank
P. Woods in this county are not sure
he will be a candidate for third
term. They say when he first an
nounced his candidacy he gave his
friends to understand that he wanted
to be in congress only two terms. 1t
seems reasonably certain that Sen
ator Allen of PocahOntas will be a
candidate and the friends of Hon.
Paul Stillman have already put him
in the running. There may be num-
Der of other candidates in the field in
due time.-Webster City Freeman.

GOOD FRIDAY---EASTER
BY Daniel MOnagIe.

The hero when he's borne from fight,
From of the bloody field.
Where lighting for his country's right,
He'd die before he'd yield.
With pride unto his countrymen
His scars and wounds does show.
That he received while beating back
The charges OF the foe.
A grateful nation unto him
Their gratitude do give,
Who nobly risked his life for them,
To die that they might live.
But Thou sweet Saviour on the cross
Did'st suffer more than he;
More than our human nature knows
And no one knows but Thee.
Thy body with scourges torn.
Thy head with thorns crowned;
Thy hands and feet unto the cross,
BY cruel nails we're bound.
o man Of peace, Gods only Son,
o what a bitter death
For Thee who lov'd Thy enemies,
E'en with Thy dying breath.
Dear Saviour for Thy sacrifice
How can we Thee repay,
For greater love Thou couldst moi
show,
Than Thy dear life 10 lay
Down at Thy Heavenly Fathers feet
For us that free from sin,
The Heavenly gates being opened wide
We there might enter in.
How glad we are on Easter morn
To know that from the tomb,
You did arise as prophesied.
From earth's dark chilly womb.
And taught Thy faithful the true way
Fraternal love 10 show.
To teach our straying sinful souls,
The righteous path TO know.
Then bring the garlands Of the spring
And lay them at His feet.
With prayer and Joyous Offering.
Your Heavenly King to greet
And ask Of Him so good and kind
That through His boundless love,
We may arise with Him TO bless
And 10Y In Heaven above.

WILLIE SMALLBOY,
CIRCUS IS COMING
RinGIinG Show, With Three
mile Parade and LIS Acts,
to be Here May 5

Friday, May 5, is 10 be elephant day
in the local Rialto.
Forty burly beasts of the two
tailed" variety will be brought hither
to make the occasion one long to be
remembered by, Willie Smallboys of
Wilmington. And there will be 10S
dens and cages of rare wild jungle
creatures, ranging from the tower
necked giraffe to the blood-sweating
Behemoth of holy writ; a score Of
hand-carved, gold-fnished wheeling
structures in and on which pose 1880
men, women and children from every
cline; $50 sleek, housekeeping horses
in silver-mounted harness; a 20-camel
team drawing a gem-studded art van,
and a thousand other wonders.
The circus is now holding forth in
the mammoth Coliseum at Chicago,
for an engagement of three weeks.
From the Windy City" the big aggre-
cation will be transported TO Zanes-
Vile. Ohio, where the road season will
be inaugurated. Prior TO coming to
this city the circus will exhibit at
Washington and Baltimore.
And such a program as the Ring
j
/ the first place Il is made up of 125
new acts which concern 400 European
performers. During one number there
are 60 performers working at one
time in IS feature acts. Another
number embraces 30 aerialists in a
single act.
Among the more important importa-
tions is Alfred Loyal and hi wonder
full equestrian dog. The dog balances
head-to-head with his master, who is
poised on the back of a swiftly NOV
ing steed, and accomplishes such re-
markable feats as turning a double
somersault. standing on his hind legs
upon the back OF a galloping horse
and catching knives In his mouth as
he is raced around the ring.
The Clarks, Of England, offer a SEN
sational aerial number that is new 70
America One member Of the troupe
actually shoots into space and de-
crihes three complete somersaults
simultaneously. This marks the first
time In history that man has ever
turned more than two somersaults In
succession either from a trapeze or
spring board.
Another great feature is that of
Emery's performing baby elephants,
from Germany. They play a game OF
baseball that is really amusing. Then
there are elephants that use the tele-
phone.
Ringing day will be introduced by a
three mile long street parade. This
feature is entirely different from the
professional displays heretofore pre-
sented.

CHANGED TITLES
Daniel Monagle.

Once on a time an Englishman
Who thought he was quite smart,
To market went one summers day,
And drove horse and cart 4
But sultry was the summer sun
That through the trees did peep,
And soothing was the pleasant shade,
And so he went to sleep.
But while he slept mischievous boys
Did steal his horse away.
At length he rubbed his eyes and
walked,
And to himself did say.
Am John Oaks whom everyone
Does say is very smart;
If am John, I've lost my horse,
If not, I've found cart
And so today my poem find
Is in another's name;
No doubt the other one will feel
AS have done the same,
For Robbins name is changed to mine,
And pray, who is to blame?
I only ask at Eastertide
That you will be so kind
AS to reprint those poems again.
And please sir. bear in mind,
My title put where It belongs,

THE JOYFUL
SUNDAY
BY The REV. R. L. JACKSON

The early church fathers called
Easter Sunday Dominica Gaudii," the
joyful Sunday. Such 1t verify was
to them, and such it has been to
Christian believers all through the suc-
ceeding centuries. It is the day Of
Joy above all days. II is the day in
whose perpetual keeping is the
answer to the question Of questions,
IF man die, shall he live again?''
II tells men that death has no auth
ority and power over those potencies
which spell the might and mystery
OF life.
1t is day Of Joy to all who havo
laid away In the earth the mortal
bodies of loved ones and friends who
have lived in the eternal life in the
midst Of time. It assures them Of a
reunion with those whom they have
lost, in the world beyond. They can
bid them goodnight here believing
that the old love will look out from
the old faces as they bid them good
morning yonder.
ALAS for him who never sees
The stars shine through his cypress
trees,
Who hopeless lays his dead away
Nor looks to see the breaking day
Across the mournful marble play"
II is a day of Joy to the aged, to
those whose time of departure is near
at hand. Death has no terrors to
the aged, In whose souls there beats
strong and intrepid the life which
raised Christ from the dead. Dying
is only a loosening of the spirit from
the tolls of the flesh that 1t may enter
upon a freer, fuller, intenser life in
realm that treats it's ardors and
aspirations in a kindlier way than
does the realm Of time.
It is day of JOY to all who are
sensible of the evanescence of the
sensuous incasement of their spirits.
They welcome with unspeakable glad
ness the message OF the Resurrection,
which Declares
That Life is ever Lord Of Death
And Love can never lose it's own"
Let us keep this Queen of Feasts,
named Eastertide, with glad and
grateful hearts Let us come under
the spell of the august event, which
II celebrates and realize anew its
transfguring power Let us antici-
pate our resurrection from the dead
here and now, by surrendering our
selves to the power of the endless life
and suffering its energies to invest
our spirits with sovereignty over the
flesh and to establish them in an in
destructible alliance with Him Who
said, Il am He that liveth and was
dead, and behold / am alive forever
more. Because I live, ye shall live
also"

The young King was named Joash.
He was kept In hiding six years and.

thought strange. Likewise the guards
were so disposed as to give every
protection to the young King and
leave the palace without protection.
The ceremony passed off successfully.
