Decision Not Reversed.

That must have been lively scene in court room in Vienna not long ago when prisoner proved his identity by standing on his head. There would have been less of shock in such an exhibition in American iu. dicial precincts. where acrobatic feats of persons under trial, sudden change of base. as it were. are quite common.
 This Viennese was circus clown, we infer, if they have circuses in Aus, tria and he proceeded to turn hand, springs along marrow gangway which led to the judges seat. This ingratiating cheerfulness of demeanor should have endeared him to the stern, est magistrate, but the record alas! is that he was sentenced to six months in prison.
 Here is one proof that humor as a art is not understood in Europe. Any American jury would have brought such a man in not guilty, from the very spontaneity of his performance. A light heart is surely connoted by light heels, and the heavy guilt of the light fingered is conspicuously absent so they say, where man can make merry in the face of his accusers.

Here is the testimony of one who used Doan's Kidney Pills years ago, and now states that the cure was lasting.
 Mrs. o. w. Blackburn, Mall colm Ave, East Newport, Ark. says: 'sI gladly confirm the tes- tiinonial which I gave in praise of Doan's Kidney Pills some years ago. The cure this reme- dy made has been permanent, but I still take a few doses oc- casionally as a kidney tonic. At one time I was greatly annoyed by a dull pain in the small of my back and I always felt tired and languid. The secretions from my kidneys bothered me and other symptoms of kidney com plaint were present. Doan's Kidney Pills, which l obtained at |Dutton's Drug Store, soon brought change for the better and my experience convinced me |of their merits"

REMOVE ALL FRUIT MUMMIEs.
Withered Peaches Should BE Re.
moved From Trees just as Soon
as Can BE Seen and Burned

After all the fruit has ripened and
gone and the leaves have fallen there
will still remain on many Of the.
peach trees the dried up remains of
peaches. These dry. withered peaches
are called mummies, probably be-
cause they are dead and yet seem to
exist long time without rotting.
Mummied peaches will hang on the
tree all fall and winter, and often till
far into the following spring, when
the new growing buds and shoots
push them off, To all appearances
they are harmless.
But the mummy on the peach tree
is a source of great evil in the fruit
orchard business; on its sunken hide
1t carries hundreds Of thousands Of
spores of disease Next year these
spores, If allowed to remain In the or.
chard, will be carried by wind, rain
and other agencies to other trees, to
cause the growing and ripening crop
to rot. Many years the peach trees
blossom freely, abundance of fruit
sets and grows to maturity, the
peaches begin to color and ripen,
when all at once, within a few days
time. they all begin to rot. Almost be-
fore we know it all of the peaches on
all of the trees in the orchard have
rotted. Where there was prospect for
a large and valuable crop of perfect
peaches now is only more than worth
less rotten trash, and all has hap
pened before we could help ourselves.
The remedy for disease in the or
chard caused by spores is spraying
and washing with Bordeaux mixture.
This mixture will kill and keep in
check nearly all fungous diseases if
the treatment is given in the right
way and at the right times OF course
1t is needless to make the applications
after the disease, or rot, has once got
ten under way, any more than it is
to give medicine to a sick animal
when 1t is dying. The disease must
be taken In time and the medicine
given in the early stages, If it is to do
much good, and prevention is better
than cure
The peach mummies should be re-
moved from the peach trees just as
soon in the fall as the falling of the
leaves will permit all of them to be
seen. Every one of them should be
Immediately burned to get them out
of the way and to kill the spores adj.
herring to them to prevent them fly
ing in the air of the orchard and
causing the next seasons crop of
peaches to rot. If this is promptly
and carefully done every year-in
your own orchard and in your neigh
bors'-there will be less rotten fruit.

Childish Wisdom.

Now and then the seemingly casual
remarks of the little ones plumb i'm
pressive spiritual and psychological
depths. Little Jean. for instance, list
ened to the conversation of two adults
with silent interest. until one of the
ladies. speaking of an unsatisfactory
photograph, remarked that few motl-
efs were pleased with portraits of
their children. for the reason that the
children did not look to others as they
did to the loving maternal eye.
Said Jean eagerly:
NO, and children don't look at 9TH
er people as they look at their moth
ers, either!"

ORIGIN OF 4 SONG
History Of "The Little Brown
Church in the Vale
Touching Little Dirty Composed by
an Iowa Physician Fifty Years
@ AGO Has Since Been sung
assl Around the World.

! Des Moines, Iowa mot so very
long ago the writer attended a great
religious convention. There were
thousands of people in attendance
There were great speeches and great
singing. The influence of this great
meeting was so inspiring that hun
dreds of men marched the streets with
banners bearing appropriate notices
Nearly every convention has favor.
lite, song. The favoriteS song at this
convention was, "The Little Prown
Church In the Vale and it was sung
with an enthusiasm that would make
any one want to come to the church
In the wildwood or anywhere else
where a church might be located.
The town of Bradford, Iowa, has to
do with the history of the song. The
homes in this little village, as easter
ners would call it, are of the New Eng
land type and shelter class of people
who. stand for moral, intellectual and
religious development.
In 1859 or 186O-or thereabouts-
the good people of Bradford resolved
to build a church where they might
worship God and teach their children
the Importance of Christian living and
Christian service. The times were
close and the people we're poor; but,
being masters of circumstances and
not their abject slaves" they con-
quered the hard times and their pow
erty by donations of stone, lumber,
hardware, paint. and labor. The Con-
gregational Church Building Society
came forward with generous dona-
ton Of money, and the little brown
church was ready for dedication with
out debt.
A little to the south of Bradford
lies the little town of Fredericksburg
In this little town, surrounded by one
of the most fertile farming regions in
the world, lived d. physician, w. S..

above the bottom of the trench. A fire
is then kindled in the trench, and, as
1t burns, some of the fire is drawn up
into the hole by the draft This fire
feeds upon the stump and the hole
burns larger and larger until the
stump is practically all consumed.
Usually the stump burns down to
depth of Is or Is inches below the
surface of the ground, which is well
out of the way of the pillow. The tar
in pine, of course, aids materially in
the burning, and it is on pine lands
that the method Is in use.
The holes are usually bored by an
ordinary auger, according to Popular
Mechanics, but the work is so slow
that especially constructed augers of
the type shown In the illustration
have made their appearance in many
parts of the country. particularly in
Alabama. The outfit shown weighs
about sixty pounds and consists Of a
IL inch ship auger about six feet
long, mounted on truck and stand
ard, and turned by crank mechan-
ism. With this machine 1t is possible
to bore holes five feet deep in a very
short time, and it Is said that two
men can bore and burn as many as
100 pine stumps a day.

The Little Brown Church.

College, and, pitching his tent in Fred
ericksburg, Iowa. gave forty Of the
best years of his life to his profession.
Dr. Pitts was quite a noted man
and had large and increasing prac-
tice. His round of calls included
Bradford. He was we'll acquainted
with her people and took lively in
terest in everything that pertained
to their welfare. He heartily seconded
their efforts in building the little
church. DR.. Pitts was also man Of
musical and literary turn of mind
Just prior to the dedication of the
church he was inspired to write a
song to be used on dedication day. He
said, speaking of his songs, II call
them inspirations, as they came to
me with force, and had to write them
out"
The name of the song may not have
been less inspired The little church
is surrounded by large, stately trees
whose overhanging branches have
sheltered both it and its worshippers
from the hot rays of the summers sun
and the cold blasts of the winters
wind. And as he thought of this little
sanctuary surrounded by these great
giants of the forest whom God planted
there. as If to protect His chosen ones
from harm, he penned this title. "The
Little Brown Church in the Vale" to
his song and wrote:
There's church in the valley by the
wildwood,
No liyelier place in the dale;
No spot is so dear to my childhood
AS the little brown church in the vale.
How sweet on a bright Sabbath morning
To list to the clear ringing bell;
Its tones so sweetly are calling,
Oh, come to the church in the vale.
There, close by the church in the valley,
Lies one that loved so WE'LL
She sleeps, sweetly sleeps, meath the will
Disturb not her rest in the vale.
There. close by the side of that loved
one.
Meath the tree where the wild flowers
bloom,
I shall rest by her side in the tomb.
CHORUS
Oh. come. come. come, come,
Come to the church in the wildwood.
Oh. come to the church In the vale;
No spot is so dear to my childhood
AS the little brown church in the vale.
This little bit of history will correct
a wrong impression that 1.-The Little
Brown Church in the Vale" is only
child of the imagination. and to as
sure all that it is "a sure enough
church." and can be seen by any one
who will make a pilgrimage to Brad

remains as a monument to the enter
prise and devotion of the pioneer
Christians Of the vicinity of Brad.
