probable cause of the damage This
hole is just outside the business line.

entrance. On the other side of the
hole was a wooden shed, which, with
its contents of stored iron, was re-
duced TO a mass of debris.
The front of the main building.
three-stOry frame, for distance of
probably rs feet, was shot to pieces.
and its contents of furniture and Of

IN apparent ruin. The material damage
however, is confined to the chipping
room, the Offices, and the space above
them, and is relatively small.
The big machinery of the plant is
apparently unchanged.

upon him through his mother.
The bust, which is. modelled after Hou-

so-called peculiar man is always an OBJ
ject OF attention. When we learn that
IN the good sense every man has mis- own
peculiaritfes, then every man seems a
fresh social mercy sent to elicit our in

grow: each year they take on change in
one direction or another. 1t may be up

that are alike. Given two men and the

of particular thought No two persons
think just alike. There may be decided
agreements: but differences of sentiment
will surely appear even in the most con-

There are many who profess to make

in God. But in time they learn their
error, as did the saloon.Seeper referred

The words of confession in the prayer
were especially noteworthy Confession

ing his own need of pardon, he was able
to see the peoples need. By including
himself in the confession. he proved MS
right to ask pardon for others.

Small Craft Warnings"

The owners of small pleasure craft ana
of vessels employed in trade on Chesa-
peake bay and it's tributaries are greatly
pleased at the plan Of the weather bureau
to adopt an additional marine warning to
be known as the small craft warning
for the benefit of the small traders. and
1t is suggested that some plan might be
adopted whereby the storm warnings
could be shown at points along inland
waterways as well as along the coasts OF
the Atlantic and Pacific, the great lakes
and the Gulf of Mexico It is poitned out

A Model Prayer.

The entire prayer should be studied,
for it is a model. His first words were
of praise and alteration to God. Then
came confession of sin, and finally petit
ton. More, the prayer was self-forget-
full. His thoughts were so full Of his
people and their misfortunes and their
sorrows that he could speak only of them
until the very end of the prayer, when
he spoke briefly of himself and his desire
for Coils help. 1t would help any Chris
