UNDERGRADUATES vi div AIMS.
REV. A. II. PARKS,
BY L. ID. Smith.
Of the early life of my friend,
Bro. Parks, | have no knowledge,
except that he was born of Scotch
Irish parentage, somewhere south
of Mason and Dixon's line, at a
time when in America, the achieve
ments of a young man were limited
only by his ambition, and natural
abilities. Love of his fellow man
decided him to follow the ministry,
and he secured an education fitting
him for that calling.
To me, he was as the ''voice of
one crying in the Wilderness" My
first acquaintance with him was
when he was serving the church as
pastor at large. We shall not know
the great good accomplished by his
ministry in that capacity, till "we
shall know as we are known" and
''see face to face" No man could
have been secured for this work who
would have served more devotedly,
or ably, nor who had the faculty in
higher degree of inspiring the mem,
bers of the churches with courage,
hope, and faith, commensurate with
the difficulties presented by the con-
ditions of the field in which he
served.
Commissioned to the care of the
sheep scattered over the west half OF
Kansas at a time when the souls
men were tried by discouragements,
Of crop, and monetary failures, when
the wolf literally, and fguratively
howled nightly at the doors of his
parishloners, and their faith was
shaken by the dcsertion of nine.
tenths of the members of the
churches his courage never faltered
and his faith in the cause of Chris
did not waver. OF pioneer stock
and himself a pioneer in western
Kansas, where he met financial Loss
and bereavement, while battling a!
a minister against the foes of righte
business, ever present in force OF
the frontier, and suffered the finan
cial reverses common to the settle
of that day place, he was able tC
enter into the feelings of those whit
had encountered similar experiences
Called to feed the hocks, scattered
over this wide expanse, Gas it thel

and sand hills, he brought to tn,

nevertheless they have manifested
themselves to such an extent that
some of the members have openly

credit for having sort of a corner or

the session is over it is certain that
some decidedly progressive ideas are

The Tea Chewers.

"Chewing tea comes from Siam" said
a traveller. They call it mieng. 1t Is

due to the fermentation it has under

ploy for chewing purposes is a very
coarse. rank plant. 1t is gathered like
ordinary tea. but the leaves after beng
compressed into plugs are buried FOR
fifteen days. They ferment during
burial. On their resurrection they are
very. very fragrant indeed. The Sia-
mese boatmen chew tea. The rickshaW
men chew it. The litterateurS chew it.
They say it makes them worE better.
