the most important center between
Chicago ON the east and Kansas City

the tri-cities offer the highest induce

CENSUS SHOWS.
Nothing points more unerringly to

The company aims for the present 70

Here are located two mines with tip

Great things are expected OF the de-

any IN the country can be manufactur-

this business.
LIVE STOCK AND GRAIN.
Besides supplying freight to resi-

and grain. Twice week from 8 TO 15
carloads OF stock are shipped from
points On the road TO the Chicago mar
ket, while grain is being handled CON
stantfy.
BROUGHT WEALTH TO COUNTRY
Since the Rock Island Southern has
begun electric service land values in
the country for several miles on each
side OF the road have about doubled,
thus greatly ben citing the owners.
The Offering Of quick, regular transpor-
tatiop TO people who have been serv-
irregularly, when at all, meant much
for them, and the result is a wonderful
quickening OF life all along the road.
Alado hailed the road as an emancipa-
tor after years of experience as sta
ton on a single branch line of a biz
railway system. and is patroniZing the
Southern literally.
And every legitimate indueement is
being offered to encourage travel. The
more important theatrical and other
attractions, conventions, etc, at either
terminus is advertised all along the
route and special cars are run If the
business IN prospect warrants.

Theology and Religion.

Theology is mans thought about
the cause of the world, the purpose
for which the world and himself
exist and his final destiny as a spir-
itual being. The "creeds," for in
stance, are theology, the statements
Of human opinion in the above men

other hand, is a sentiment or inn
pulse or instinct of mans nature as
man, which feels instead Of reasons
and which, instead OF depending on
logic or speculation, falls back
wholly npon itself for its inspira-
tions. We are religious by nature,
while we have to be taught to be
theological.-New York American.

LEGEND OF The PELICAN.
Born of the Peculiar Way the Bird
Feeds Its Young.

Perhaps the strangest of all leg
ends pertaining to birds is that Of
the pelican, said to have been the
third bird to emerge from Noah's
ark. 1t still thrives as ancient a
type among birds as the badger is
among q~uadrupeds. The legend Of
the pelican is, The pelican t~urneth
her bcak against her breast and
Herewith pierceth it till the blood
gusheth out, wherewith she nOur-
isheth her young"
On examination the tradition cx-
plains itself. The distinctive fea-
ture Of the pelican is its enOr-
nous bill, with the commensurate
pouch depending from the lower
mandiblc. SO great is the capacity
Of this pouch and so considerable
its strength that the natives Of
many countries to this day convert
it into a very ~serviceable bag. The
upper mandible terminates in =
hook which curves over the lip Of
the lower and is of a reddish color.
The tint Of the feathers is, in the
words of the poet, "pearly white,
but ruby tinctured."
It may be assumed, the above
facts being promised, that the two
or three eggs laid by the mother
bird have been Matched. Then the
parents begin to realize that the
cares of paternity are heavy indeed.
The amount of food consumed by
the young pelicans is prodigiOus.
As pelicans derive the whole of
their sustenance from the water and
feed almost exclusively on fish, the
use of their formidable fishing I'M
plements is apparent. Whether
they are wading or swimming, they
dredge and scoop out their prey
into the pouch, where it passes
through some amount of macera-
ton before being given to the
young.
At this point enters that curious
act to which the observers Of so
many ages have given an incorrect
Interpretation.
In order to eject the contents Of
the pouch the bird presses its bill
strongly and with a kind of spas
modic action against its breast, and
the pinkish hue of its feathers, the
red tipped bill and often enough
the blood of its captured victims
combine to produce the effect that
gave birth to the legend.
This tradition seems to have
found credence throughout Chris
tendon, and the proverbial "peli-
can in her piety" took root both as
a symbol and a phrase. By de-
grees the figure of the pelican feed
ing her young developed into a com
mon emblem of charity, the use of
which prevailed in southern Europe.
The figure is sometimes found
carved in wood or stone work of an
cient English churches and is still
used as a symbolic emblem of char
ity. The pelican is often used, too,
as an ornament of the lectern in
Episcopal churches.-New York
Press
