HeIo for Daily Living.

Our need of Gods help for the meet

az it is for the supremest struggle
of our being in the final conflict with
the arch enemy of our souls. And as
TO the relative measure of Gods pow

say what is much or what is little for
God to do? God is as ready to aid ns
in one time of need as another. We
can depend upon him alike when to
us our requirements seem great or seem

He knows your need. It seems to you
that no one can know it, it is 80 vast.
He knows it better that you do your
self. The multitude of your own as
pirations are not present to you, are
lost to you; but he has caught them
all in his own vessel and will see to it
that all are duly fulfilled. He knows
your need, your intellectual need, your
Spiritual need, your need today, your
need Yesterday and your need tomor-

supply it.

GOOD BYE LOCKER CLUBS.
No More Legaiized Social Bar
Rooms in Atlanta, Ga.

Atlanta, October 25.-That all lock-
er clubs in Georgia violate the letter OF
the prohibition law, but that the ma
iority Of them fulfill the spirit of the
law in furnishing liquor only to bona
fide members and in not operating a
bar for the profit of individuals, is the
concensus of opinion among lawyers
here.
Consequently the declaration of
Chief Beavers that he is going to close
up every club that violates the law, is
looked at somewhat askance. II ne
means that he will only close up the
few clubs that are violating both the
letter and the spirit of the law, run
ming thinly veiled bar rooms for the
profit of individuals. under the gu1se
of social clubs, the chief will be gen
orally backed up in the reform.

Maternal LEGION"

French mothers want a legion Of
honor for themselves. A petition to
that effect has been laid before the
senate. and NJ. Reynald was commits
stoned to report upon it. He now de-
clares that he finds the petition very
interesting. French mothers demand
a pension for each child they bring
up. When a mother has eight chill
dren she is to receive a medal CORE
spending to the medaille militaire
granted in recognition of valor. and
equivalent to the Victoria cross. The
French mothers who bring up eight
children ask for the badge of courage,
and NJ. Reynald, the senator, approves
them, but he cannot hit upon a name
for the new legion. The senate is to
be left to choose the title. The pen
sion claimed for brave mothers is not
exorbitant. 1t is to be only 20 francs
n year per child. I'VE commend their
moderation" adds Senator Reynald.
and as spokesman of the committee
he proposes the scheme to the min
istry of the interior, with strong
recommendation for approval.

DIR. Orr and the police thought it was

could go home.
Charles delivered the papers intact

POINTER HERE FOR FARMER
One Good Thing, at Least, That He
May Place to the Credit of
the Auto.

The farmer may not venerate the
automobile, but he must admit that,
although the automobile teaches 9TH
ers extravaganza, it has taught him
very valuable lesson in economy.
Everybody knows how plant lice, or
aphis, overrun and destroy plants and
how the sole protection against plant
lice has heretofore been patent pow
ders more or less costly.
But of late years farmers have no
ticed that, while all the plants in field
or garden were covered with aphis.
all the roadside growths, white with
dust from flying automobiles, had not
a single nphis on them.
Hence an experiment. Turnips, peas
and cabbages were coated with ordi-
nary dust instead of costly powder.
Result, disappearance of all insect par
asites.
The automobile, In word, has
taught the farmer that dust, which
costs nothing, will protect his plants
from plant lice and other pests just as
completely as the most expensive
powder can.
