Operation of the Churches.
STRENGTH IS GIVING OUT
Nets Full of Fish But Can t
Land Them.
Famous Evangelist Tells Linn Folks
What he Thinks is the Trouble
wtih Thcm--Somc characteristic
And Picturesque Thoughts.

Rev BILLY" Sunday has made an
announcement in Lima that will be
read with the deepest interest by
many Marionites. Rev. Sunday is
rather under the impression that he
is not receiving the proper co-oper9-
ton from the churches and firmly
declared his intention of quitting his
remarkable evangelstic efforts unless
he received heartier support from
those for whom he was laboring. Up
to Wednesday morning there had been
1909 conversions in Lima.
Tuesday night Rev Sunday made
the following declarations:
"Ill quit If the churches of God
don't do their part 1 am half sick
now and could furnish the certificates
OF a half-doZen physicians, which
would justify me i'm the act. Many a
man in my condition would not
preach tonight. or for week. or for
two weeks. / am ready to do my part
but / will have to have personal
work. Conditions here remind me of
a fisherman who has his nets full of
fish but hasn't power enough to drag
them to shore. That seems to be the
trouble with the churches"
Following are a few of Rev. Sun
days picturesque and characteristic
Zine drlves:"
Don't put the devil on a limited
train, and God on a freight"
II don't believe in paying $3.50 for
sealskln coat and throwing five
cents into the contribution plate"
THE reason that the churches of
Lima don't have more power is be-
cause they are mixed up with so many
card-playing. dancing, beer-drinking
church members. / wouldn't give
three whoops this side OF hell for a
church member of this kind so far
as power Is concerned"
"A saloonkeeper wouldn't enjoy
himself I'm n red hot prayer meeting
and a minister wouldn't have good
time In a saloon"
"You must put yourself in a posi-
tion so that God can demonstrate
His power. If you want to find out
whether railroad ticket Is good, you
get on the train. If II is. the con-
ductor punches IT; If It isn't, he
punches you"

OrderIiness Is Bio Asset,

To teach children habits Of neatness,
system and order is to insure some de-
gree. at least. of success. Yet they
are often brought up amid disorder
and confusion, allowed to throw things
down just where they use them and to
form ~slovenly and slipshod habits.
They are not taught to put things
where they belong, and consequently
they grow up shackled with handi-
caps which they can rarely throw off.
If there is any delusion in the world
it is that doing things just for now"
dropping things wherever one may
happen to be temporarily, saves time.
On the contrary. this is a great time
waster and a great demoralizer Of
character. A bad habit not only tends
to repeat itself. but to increase the
tendency in that direction.
If you were not taught the beauti-
full lesson Of orderliness in your youth,
teach It to yourself now.-Success Mag

He Was Germ Proof

A fond mother of Big Stone, whose
little son had just entered school, was
informed by him on his return at noon
the first day that he would have to buy
a drinking cup for himself, in order to
avoid contact with the germs that are
on the other cups" She gave him a
nickle for that purpose, and when he
came home at night he marched up to
her and said proudly: Mama, don't
YOU want to see my new folding cup?'
''Why, yes, my son." and he began to
empty his pocket in search of the new
possession.
The first article brought forth was a
handkerchief which looked like a last
years bird nest. She took that out of
his hand and mott ing some red stains
on it asked, did you have the nose
bleed?" "No. mama, but Jimmy did,
and he didn't have a handkerchief, so
lent him mine" The next article was a
rusty old mouth organ, and in explana-
ton the boy said: THAT is u band
and we take turns playing soldiers. :
The third article was a dead mouse in a
fair state of preservation, and below
this was found the germless drinking

COURTESY SHOWN FOREIGNERS
Chinese Soldiers Join Revoiutionists
and Police and Firemen Appear
to BE in Full Sympathy.

Shanghai, Nov. 4.-Except for the
foreign concessions Shanghai is in
the hands of the revolutionists who
captured the city. There was prac-
tically no resistance, only a few shots
being fired. All the Chinese soldiers
have Joined the revolutionists and
the police and firemen are apparently
sympathizing with them, for they are
wearing white badges.
After taking over the arsenal the
rebels burned the taotai's yamen in
the native city. Every courtesy is
shown foreigners. The soldiers, po-
lice and firemen are continuing on
duty. Shops are closed.
While the action of the rebels was
expected the movement was made
quietly. After a slight disturbance in
the northern section of the city no
tees were posted throughout the
native city announcing that the mill
tary government of China" had taken
V e Shanghai. 1t warned the popu-
lace against disorder.
The arsenal, where recently here
had been the greatest activity pre-
paratory to assisting the up river
forts and providing ammunition for
Admiral Sab, was called on to sur
render by the revolutionaries The
chief officials disappeared, but a few
other officials continued to hold it,
without, however, any show of force.
A few shots were fired, but the revo-
lu~tionaries warned the officials re-
naming that they intended to take
the arsenal even if they had to fight
for it and the officials quietly evacu-
ated.
1t is understood that one reason for
the revolutionaries taking Shanghai
was that two Norwegian vessels had
been loaded at the arsenal during the
last two days with ammunition for
Admiral Sab. These vessels succeeded
in getting away.

japanese Fruit Trees.

Among the many ways OF their own
that the japanese have for doing
filings is their system Of pruning and
training fruit trees. The system is
called "tana' and consists In training
the branches overhead on trelliswork
made Of bamboo or wire supported on
wooden posts about five and a'half feet
high. This offers advantages In gath.
ering the fruit and not only serves to
protect the trees against wind and
storm, but is said to increase produc-
tion. Only very light pruning Is done,
and that usually in the winter time.
This system is generally adopted for
pears and vines, less often for apples
and plums.
