century of his life in prison. on ac-
count of his religious views and his
attempts to convert the Mohammedans

unite all religions into one. Before
returning to Persia he will address

is an advocate of universal peace, be-
lieves in woman's rights, and is other
wise socially and politically progress
sive.
While in Chicago Abdul BAHIA will
dedicate the new Mashrak-E Ell Azkar,
the first temple of unity" to be built
by the Bahaists in America. In addi-
ton to the nine-sided structure for
religious worship, there will be four
other buildings on the grounds, one
a hospice for entertaining travelling
Bahaists, another a hospital, a third
school for orphans, and the fourth a
home for the caretakers. In the
Bahai movement there are no paid
preachers, as all teach and all work.

OF whatever sect, retain their men,

the great exposition hall in Bcrlin's

sized by the presence of the original
biplane with which Orville Wright,
early in September, 1909, made on the
Tempelhof Field, south of Berlin, the
first successful flights ever made in

aviator's license. Beside the Princes
machine stands the military Euler,

GOOD ROADS KING DELIVERS

D. Ward King, the now famous split

was introduced by Mr.. Stockman, Sec
rotary of the Commercial Club, and
for an hour held the close and interest
ed attention of those present.
Mr.. King makes no pretense to ora
tory, nor does he deal in any of the
technical terms of the scientist or
engineer He is, however, an inter-
esting talker, and his lecture, while
being very practical is at once quite
entertaining. Having been raised in
a city, he went to the farm when
twenty-five years old and has been
farmer for thirty years. So he makes

in America used one, but upon the

over the country telling the people

est obstacle he meets in this connec-

simple for people to believe. The
great Syrian general had the leprosy

great remedy if cure was possible.
The prophet suggested a simple rem

He wanted something difficult, some
thing costly.
Mr.. King is seeking to get farmers
everywhere to adopt the split log drag
and advises that each farmer drag the
road from his front gate, to the front
gate of his neighbor, not for pay, but
for pride. The road should be dragged
after every rain, not while it is wet,
but while it is moist. Space in our
