Gather 667 Bushels Of Cherries.
Keosauqua, June 30.-Oven six hun
dred gallons of cherries were picked
and sold from the Hugh Horn orchard
near Hillsgoro in one day and this
picking had been going on some days
before, Though not to so large an ex-
tent, and has been since. Perhaps in
no one orchard in Iowa has so many
cherries ever been marketed as from
the Horn fruit farm this year, and
this statement is based on the fact that
the total of cherries gathered from the
Horn orchard this year is about $500
gallons, or 6S7 bushels.

Heart toHeart
Talks.

By EDWIN A. NYE.


One Sunday morning a few weeks
ago an old man lay dead In a little
hut by the side of railroad track.
He was dressed in the rough blouse
and the heavy boots OF the Russian
peasant-a costume he had worn for
many years.
He died early on the Sunday morn
ing. And the peasants who loved
him f1ocked to the place. Some knelt
inside the hut and some knelt outside
and prayed for the soul of the old man
with the white beard who lay in his
little bed.
True, the "holy synod" Of the holy
Greek church had forbidden that any
prayers should be said for the repose
of the soul Of this old man, but
You cannot stop the silent prayer of
a soul by any earth injunction.
Why the pitiful scene?
1t was because the old man who
lay there dead was a Christian demo-
crat. He believed in literal brother
hood of man. He literally lived the
truths of the Sermon on the Mount.
And the holy church" protested
against this teaching and living Of
Christianity.
This old man Of eighty years was q
great man of letters-one of the great
est of his century. He was titled and
rich. And yet
In peasant costume and living the
PEASANTS daily life he taught the COM
mon people, who heard him gladly,
the lesson of human equality; taught
1t and, what was better. lived it!
He was like the man who came to
this enrth 1000 years ago to teach the
same truth--and live it-and die for
1t.
Is it impious to liken them?
The one was born in another mans
stable, buried in another mans tomb;
his last pillow was thorns. his first
companions We're cattle, and his last
companions were thieves, and
Was not Leo Tolstoy his true dis
ciple?
He who said, Eye shall know the
truth, and the truth shall make you
free found in the soul of Tolstoy an
altar upon which the truth forever
famed.
And the kneeling peasants, wonder
ing in their simple minds at the
strange greatness and the great good
ness Of the old man lying dead In the
hut-they knew.
And the world knows.
