Jesus. Lovesr of My Soul

From the Kansas City Star.
 Religion has always been welded to song, whatever the stage of civilization or the form of worship. Rhythm and melody have acted and reacted upon the religious life of the world, until 1t Is easy to understand how the largest and most permanent contribution one can make to the religious life is to write for it new song which will lift 1t on the wings of praise and prayer to the higher things.
 The greatest hymn written by unin- spired man Is undoubtedly "Jesus, Low CT of My Soul" written by Charles Wesley.
 It stands next and possibly beside the great song of David, which is called the Twenty third Psalm--the little brown thrush of all earth songs. home ly. but sweet to human hearts: 'The Lord Is My shepherd. Wesleys hymn shares with Davids the honor of bring ing peace and comfort to the largest multitudes to have been the earliest lisped in childhood and the last to lin ger on the tongue when the singer crosses the bar.

faith and hope in all literature and so shares with the Twenty third Psalm the. first place in the hearts of thous ands as the two voice the prayers or Christendom.
 Charles Wesley wrote this hymn at the age of S2. and the story of It's origin is that he stood by an open window on a summer day, and a little bird, fright ened by a thunderstorm, flew into the room and sought refuge there; this in- eldent inspired the writing Of this hymn
 Henry Ward Beeeher, speaking of his fathers death and his love for this hymn. said: "I would rather have written that hymn of Wesleys than 10 have the fame of any king on earth IL IS more glorious. There Is more power in it. I would rather be the author O that hymn than to have the wealth or the richest millionaire of New York He will die and pass out of men thoughts.

 COMP PANY'S GROWTH.
Increase in Business Has Kept Them Busy Finding

The history of the growth Of the business of the wholesale house of the R. D. Burnett Cigar company is very closely correlated to the wonderful growth of the Magic City,
 This firm began business in very modest way In a small building located in an alley between Eighteenth and Nineteenth streets in the year 1902, corresponding to the oft related mar rative of the box car foundation of this city The business was remark ably successful from it's inception and it's phenomenal growth and expansion has necessitated many changes of lo- cation-perhaps more than any other w iesale house in this district.
