A RESPONSIVE READING.
Friend of Sinners.

No man hath seen God at any
time; the only begOtten Son, who is
in the bosom of the Father, he hath
declared him.
And II came TO pass, as he drew
nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind
man sat by the wayside begging:
And hearing the multitude going
by, he inquired what this meant.
And they told him, that Jesus of
Nazareth passeth by.
And he cried saying, Jesus, thou
son of David, have mercy on me-
And they that went before re-
buked him, that he should hold his
peace: but he cried out the more a
great deal, Thou son of David have
mercy on me.
And Jesus stood, and commanded
him to be brought unto him: and
when he was come near, he asked
him, What wilt thou that | should
do unto thee? And he said, Lord,
that ! may receive my sight.
And Jesus said unto him, Receive
thy sight. thy faith hath made thee
whole.
And Immediately he received his
sight. and followed him. clarifying

God: and all the people, when they
saw il. gave praise unto God.
And he entered and was passing
thru Jericho.
And behold. n man called by name
Zacchaeus: and he was chief pun
lican. and he was rich.
And he sought to see Jesus who
he was; and could not for the crowd
because he was little of stature.
And he ran on before, and climbed
up into a sycamore tree to see him;
for he was to pass that way.
And when Jesus came to the place,
he looked up and said unto him,
Zacchaeus, make haste and como
down; for to-day must abide at
thy house.
And he made haste and came
down, and received him joyfully.
And when they saw it they all
murmured, saying, He IS gone in to
lodge with man that is a sinner.
And Zacchaeus stood, and said I'M
to the Lord. Behold. Lord. the half
of my goods give to The poor: and il
| have wrongfully exacted aught OF
any man, | restore four-fold.
And Jesus said unto him, To-day
is salvation come to this house, for
asmuch as he also is a son of Abra-
ham.
For the Son of man came to seek
and save that which was lost.

DARING RIDERS

Using a jocky saddle to ride buck.
ing horses Is unusual and a stunt that
few would care to undertake. Gen
orally when the attempt Is made to
subdue the outlaw equines q heavy
saddle is used and the saddle Ia al
ways equipped with high ear rest and

riders, one Of whom 10 q woman who

Ito cling to. The opportunities OF con-
quering are all in favor of the horse
and the danger of being thrown are
greatly increased and no n knows
this more than those who have tried to

horse.
There are no horses with the 101
Ranch Wild. West show that are
educated to buck. In fact despite
what some people believe there are no
exhibition horses taught to buck, It
is natural for them to do so and in
truth they know nothing different.
They are brainless and with all the
vigor and strength they possess they
fight being ridden. Those who are
familiar with horses claim that a real
bucking horse cannot be subdued until
he has been ridden to death and there
are some with the show which IL, to
exhibit here that carry out this belief.

MONEY
WITHSTANDS TEST

Washington, D.. c., Aug. s.-Laun-
dered money Is just as good as new
bills, only a short time out of the
printers hands, according to the
bureau OF chemistry, which reported
today to United States Treasurer
Burke the results of a recent chemical
analysis of the washed notes. The
analysis disclosed only a slight diff
ference in the appearance OF the
washed and unwashed bills.
The report says that the washed bills
are heightened slightly in the launder-
ing, but that neither the b%rilliancy OF
the ink nor the engraved surface is
affected. It is found that the old bills
have lost some of their crispness, but
they retain tensil Strength and will
stand a great deal of circulation. The
experiment developed that genuine
bills w,ithstood the washing process,
but that counterfeit currency was in
stantly detected.
