(a) 1t is important to remember
that the Sabbath was not arbitrarily
given, but that it was designed and
appointed to be a blessing to man.
Christ makes this plain in his state
ment that "the Sabbath was made for
man. and not man for the Sabbath
Mark 2:27. God makes no law, ap-
points no service; sets apart no day, In
q merely arbitrary manner and for ar
bitrary purposes:
90 The Sabbath was not an after
thought Of God, but provision fitting
into the very constitution Of mans ma
ture from the very beginning. The Sab
bath law is as old as man, and as be-
neficent as Gods disposition toward his
creatures. The Sabbath, at the very
beginning, was intended to be an aid
to man for the development and pro-
gress of his moral social and spiritual
life. It would have been needed even
If man had never sinned: 1t is even
more necessary now. The Sabbath is
one Of the things for which we ought
to be very thankful.

Christian Endeapor Topic

(a) why did God make the Sabbath
a physical necessity? That it is such a
necessity admits Of no dispute. But
God might have made us differently.
He might have given us resources OF
bodily strength sufficient for daily toll
without intermission. But if that were
the case, what would be the result ?
Men would be more than ever tempted
and inclined to forget God, and neg
lect the culture of their moral and
spiritual nature. In our physical conf
pulsion or rest we more easily and
surely find our opportunities for TAX
ing care of our spiritual life.
CD We must not imagine that the
chief benefits of the Sabbath are to be
realized by merely resting from our
daily tolls. We ought to be glad for the
opportunity to do that; and ought not
to deprive ourselves, or allow others -
deprive us, of the privileges and bene-
fits of simple rest from our every day
labors. But that is not enough. The
Sabbath benefits are for our souls more
than our bodies, for our moral i'm
provement more than our physical
comfort.

MOTHER FINDS
HER DAUGHTER
SEPARATED THROUGH DIVORCE
TANGLE; MEETING TOOK
PLACE IN SHELDON.

| Mason City, April IA mothers
love triumphed at last, when Miss
Genevieve Mullen and her mother.
Mrs. N. J. Dalton were once more
united. That Miss Mullen is none other
than her daughter was fully estab-
lished when the baby picture OF the
long lost girl was brought out and com
pared with the living image. Genevieye
was the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Jo-
seph Lafferty, who resided in Council
Bluffs. Mrs. Lafferty was taken i'll and
placed in hospital. Prior to her Ill
ness discord had arisen in the family
and upon this opportunity Mr.. Lafferty
took the two children, Salina aged 8,
as she was then called and Charles,
| aged 2, and put them in a home.
Finally Mrs. Lafferty grew better
and asked to see her children, but was
refused and all knowledge of them was
denied her. AS soon as she was aple,
she consulted an attorney and 1t was
decided to institute proceedings for
divorce and the custody of the chill
dren. In the trial, the Judge ruled IN
her favor and the husband was ordered
to turn over the children. He asked
for three days in which to do this II
was given him, but at the conclusion
of that time he had gone to parts uli-
known and could not be found. Since
that day until Tuesday last con-
tinual search had been conducted.
Some time after her recovery Mrs.
Lafferty became the wife OF N. }.
Dalton, a man Of considerable means.
Thousands of dollars have been spent
in search Of the children all over the
United States and Canada, but for
twelve years it was fruitless. Then
she secured through friend trace
of Charles. Detectives were put at
work and he was found in South
Omaha. He was rescued by his mother
and stepfather, cleaned up, and he is
now well advanced in his work as
student of law. Charles then Joined III
the search for his sister.
A short time ago he went to the
home where he was first taken and
succeeded in securing what no one else |
had been able to secure, one of the old
records which revealed the secret so
long sought after. Salina had been
adopted by Mrs. Margaret Mullen OF
Sheldon. Wires were at once brought
into use and she was located, and as
quickly as steam could carry them,
Mr.. and Mrs Dalton were in Sheldon,
and the happy reunion followed.

Honor to Bank Janitor.

Spencer, April 12.-The entire bust
ness of the town was suspended from
2 to 3 o'clock out of respect for Adam
Emig, whose funeral was held at thai
hour. Adam; as he was known by
everyone in the community, never die
any great thing, but a great many
small kind and helpful things. He came
to the town in 1882 and for nineteen
years had been the janitor for the
First National bank. He probably never
had S1O0 to his credit in the bank, yet
every bank in the city closed it's doors
and every banker and bank clerk at
tended his funeral. Seldom before has
the town shown such marked respect
and rarely has a man gone who will be
so generally missed.

WrinkleIess Skin
 Now Easy tO Have
(From Family Physician)

There's no excuse for any woman having wrinkles now. It has been found that simple mixture of saxo- lite and witch hazel has a remarka ble action upon the deepest wrinkles, no matter what their nature, whether caused by worry. habitual frowning a debilitated condition or the ravages of Father Time. This harmless rem edy, which anyone can easily make and use at home, acts both. as an astringent and tonic. The combined effect of tightening the skin and heightening it's vitality is to fmme diately affect every line and wrinkle. keeping the cuticle smooth and firm as Tn youth.
 The proportions are one ounce sax olite (powderede to one-half pint witch hazel. The solution should be used as wash lotion. It is equally effective in disposing of fahbness of cheek and neck, as we'll as sagging below the eyes

WANT THEIR PAY,
Wood Cutters Recount Grievances for
 Settlement


 F. E. Bowen of Chaplin and this city was pretty busy at his office in the Jordan block Monday in the capacity
 or a peacemaker. He was besieged by
 twelve laborers who have been work ing for Frederick Goodrich of ASA Pleasant street, this city, cutting tim per on MT. Bowen's land in Chaplin. $tnd Joseph Youngs of North Windham who mad claim against several of the umbermen for back board The
 ehtife bunch were pretty hot under
 the collars, but it is believed that the matter is amicably adjusted through MT. Bowen's diplomacy, and that the
 men will be back on the job again this (Tuesday) morning.
 The trouble arose over the refusal of Goodrich to settle with the men on Saturday evening. Goodrich took contract to cut 200.000 feet of tim
 Der on MT. Rowens place and started work month ago. putting twenty men and as many horses and several wagons on the job. There was no trouble until Saturday evening when the Moodculters went from their boarding house to the scene of opera tons 10 get their money from Good rich, who refused to pay them, saying that he had no money and that he had lost money on the contract and that he had fired it up. He referred them
 to Mr. Bowen for their money They
 went to his home and recounted their troubles to him. In the evening Good rlch's brother, Henry was seen com ing through North Windham with four-h horse team. loaded Joseph 1oungs stopped him and asked for the money due on the mems board. There was nothing doing. Sunday evening Mir Bowen took a trip to his property in Chaplin and found Goodrich load
 ing up another wagon with furniture
 from the house he had occupied on
 the place.
 George Ide was told of the circum- stances and he had papers made out by Judge Clarence B. Chester of Chap
 lin and they were served by Consta
 ble Charles Russ. the latter overtaking
 Goodrich before he had gotten out of town. The attachment was to protect
 a claim of $14 that Mir. Ide had against Goodrich for shoeing horses. Good rich pleaded for a chance, that was given he paying s on account and
 agreeing to pay the balance today
 (Tuesdav). The woodcutters are owed about $100, and they wanted to at l tach the horses, but it developed that they were not owned by Goodrich.
 According to agreement, all parties
 involved met Monday at noon in MT.
 Bowen'S office and after a couple of hours conference came to an under
 standing that will in all probability
 result in the completion of the present
 contract and the commencement of
 another. Mir. Bowen agreed to ad
 vance sufficient money for the mems
 hoard, although the original contract
 did not call for it. MT Bowen then
 took the whole bunch out to dinner
