on every Sunday morning for the
remainder of the conference year.
All are cordially invited to attend
this and all services of the church.
The two weeks series of special
services held by the M. E. church
came to close last Sunday evening.
While there were not many CONVEX
sions, the spiritual life Of the
church was greatly quickened and
encouraged. While the season was
not opportune, yet it was only at
such a season that the services of
our conference Evangelist and his
capable assistant. Rev. and Mrs.
VIM. Park, could be secured, as the
demand for the services of these
consecrated. talanted and widely
experienced Christian workers is so
great that they are at work almost
altogether in the cities or in union
meetings in the larger towns. The
NJ. E. church of Friday Harbo:
counts itself fortunate in having
Rev. and Mrs. Park in our midst
for the two weeks and bids them
God speed as they 60 from US

Lucky She Didn't Wake Her.

The following conversation was
overheard at the breakfast table be-
tween little Helen, aged ten, and an
older sister:
Helen-Last night | had an aw-
full dream, sister. | dreamt that !
was going up, up, up, and then !
came down, down, down again.
Sister-That was your soul going
up to heaven to have all the naughty
things you have done taken away.
Then it came back again to your
body.

Parcels Post {. 0. D.

Businessmen and merchants are
advised that on July / the c. 0. d..
feature of the parcels post was put
into practice. After that date, for
a fee of 10 cents paya BILE in stamps
tn he affixed to the package. the
postal department will act as col
Iector of any sum not exceeding
$500. Also the c. O. D. stamps
will serve to insure the package for
the full value of the contents, but
not above $50.
This collect" plan should prove
a great convenience and help to
those merchants who have already
found in the parcels post promis-
ing way of competing with the east
ern mail order houses. The parcel
post with its graduating zones has
enabled many retailers to enter
somewhat localized. but neverthe-
less profitable, mail order field
which heretofore was considered
closed business territory.
The parcel post has proved it's
worth. Statistics gathered by the
department show that in forty-six
of the largest Offices on the three
days April Is, II and Is, over two
million packages were sent. With
the added convenience of collect on
delivery. doubtless there will be a
still greater volume Of business
transacted through the mails. Of
course, there are many inconsistent
cies in the present system. Zones
and charges must be regulated.
The former must be enlarged, the
latter reduced. But it must be re-
membered this postal innovation is
only an infant-not six months old
and the next few years will see a
vast improvement and still greater
usefulness.
And yet the express companies
are all doing business at the same
old stand. Their officers are wear
ing the happy smile of contentment
aud prosperity. and their business
does not appear to have been cur
tailed. The parcel post has not in
jured private enterprise. 1t has
merely increased interstate and in
terstate commerce.

SENTENCED FOR LIFE.
RAISES NOVEL POINT

Frankfort, KY, May ia nov
al. noint-with~ respect tn. the statute
providing an increased penalty for
second conviction of a felony and
life sentence for the third convic-
ton, is raised in the appeal of An
drew Mclntire, negro, sentenced
for life in Nelson county for felo-
niously striking another. He was
convicted once of breaking into an
Clubhouse, again Of maliciously
wounding and a third time of chick
en- stealing. Then he was indicted
for breaking into railroad car,
the indictment reciting his former
convictions, and he was declared
not guilty. Now his counsel con-
tends that the verdict of mot
guilty" on the indictment for
breaking into railroad car, coup
led with reference to his former
indictments, is a bar to a life sem
tence and he pleads a former ac-
quittal to the previous conviction
portion of the indictment. 1t is the
first time this question has been
squarely presented to a court.

LITTLE CHILD CAUSES
i GREAT LOSS BY FlHE.

Nj. Sterling, Ky, May 15.-The
residence and barn belonging to j.
B. Cecil, on the Maysvile pike, one
mile from here. were destroyed by
fire Tuesday afternoon.
The 4-year-old grandson of Mr..
Cecil was playing in the barn and
is said to have set it on fire. After
seeing the fire get start, the child
ran to the house and told his moth
er, who with a number of other wo-
men, We're guests of Mrs. Cecil. The
women ran to the barn which was
in flames and released several
horses, but failed to get out a val
liable brood-mare which persisted.
Three buggies,a lot of feed, harness,
etc, were burned. The residence
caught fire from the stable and was
quickly consumed with most of it's
contents.
During the fire Mrs. Bruce Tur-
ner, in attempting to save her fam
lily horse, was frightfully burned
about face and hands, and the mare
also was burned. The loss falls
heavily on Mr.. Cecil and will reach
about $4,000 with little insurance.
Mr.. Cecil was at Bethel at the time
of the fire.
