SUCCESS MUST BE EARNED
Earnest, Intelligent Effort, With In
dustry, Will Set One Well on the
Path to the Goal.

Most men who have amounted to
anything started with nothing but abil-
ity and determinations combination
which recognizes no man-made limita-
tions.
Any kind of work is better than idle
ness, which is directly responsible for
most of the unhappiness in this world.
Idleness is a dangerous thing; it
may grow into habit that might stick
to you after you get back in harness,
and the man who loafs on his job is
only fooling himself.
Eternal, intelligent effort is the price
of commercial growth, and where
there is no progression there is bound
to be retrogTession. Business is some
thing like aeroplanng; to stop is to
drop and to drop is generally to bust.
Pin your faith to the law Of COM
pensation, but don't take any stock in
the law of chance; there's no such
thing. Waiting for something to turn
up in the belief that things are bound
to come your way eventually is throw
ing dice with fate. Many good dog
never got decent bone until his teeth
were gone.

TOOK POSSESSION OF HOUSE
Growing Eccentricity of Englishwom.
ans Life, That Was Filled With
Eccentricities.

In an old book published m Paris I'M
der the title of lie Journal dun Voy-
age au Levant," there is an amusing
account of the way il which Lady
Hester Lucy Stanhope, the eccentric
English traveller took possession of
the house at Djoun, where eventually
she made her permanent home.
She was pleased with the house and
it's surrounding gardens, and accepted
an invitation to dinner. AS she sat af-
ter dinner, with the owner, Christian
merchant, he said to her that if She
liked the place, he should be glad if
she would stay the night. When she
said that she liked it so much that
she would stay there the rest of her
days, he took it as a polite figure of
speech but fortnight later, as she
still prolonged her visit, he suggested
that Europe might be expecting her
return.
81 do not intend to return" she re-
piled, carelessly.
"Ah, then you intend to build a pal
ace in the neighborhood?" said he.
mo, this house suits me very we'll"
But | cannot let it or sell it, mi
lady"
Il do not wish to hire it or buy it,
but intend to keep it" was the start
ling reply.
In this dilemma the merchant dis
patched a messenger posthaste to
Emir Beshyr, who sent word to Lady
Hester that she must give up the
house. Lady Hester however, wrote
to Constantinople, whence a courier
came to the emir, bearing the order,
obey the princess of Europe in ev-
erything."
So the Disguised merchant fed, leav-
ing her ladyship in possession. There
for 20 years she lived the life of
recluse, growing more and more with
drawn from the world, and more ac-
customed to dwell in mental and
spiritual realm of her own creation,
until she died, and was buried in the
garden of the house that she had
usurped.

HOW TO HOLD THE
COUNTRY BOY
VIII Be Live Subject For Maryland
Ministers During Country Life
Conference At College
Park, August 40.

If the country is to prosper, it must
retain it's most important crop-its
young men and young women. To do
so, it must make the country pleas
ant place in which to live. 1t must
make it attractive enough to cause
them to look forward to it as a life
home. And, again, the Challenge Of
the Country must be made more ap-
pealing to the ambition and pluck of
the country boy than is the Challenge
of the City Urbanitis in the minis
try, and urbanltis in the schools is one
great cause of this present exodus.
Plans for counteracting this urbanitis
and it's effect on our young life will be
presented for discussion at the Coun.
try Life Conference as part of the
rural problem in the solving of which
the country church and it's ministers
should take a vital part.
In truth, the Rural Minister has
difficult condition of affairs to meet.
Country Life has changed and is still
changing. Although some churchmen
vaguely realize this, many do not make
a study of the problem, nor attempt to
analyze it. So there is a complaint
that the Church is not fulfilling it's
obligations to the community, and for
that reason is losing ground. Old or
CARNATIONS and customs have died out,
and new ones which seem to supplant
the Church have taken their place;
with the result that the Church to an
alarming extent has lost its hold upon
the people.

For Those who Wish to Reduce.

Do you always take every opportu-
nifty to walk when you can? If it
is matter of several blocks, do you
take car when it is possible? Take
every opportunity to walk, but walk
as if you really enjoyed it; put some
energy into this exercise. Really make
it an exercise. Do not eat more than
one starchy food at meal, drink
plenty of water, but between meals,
and, above all, eat enough to allay
hunger, but stop there; do not con-
tinue as if you were never going to
get another meal instead of one quite
as heavy in another four or five hours.
Another thing, sleep with plenty of
fresh air circulating in your sleeping
room and if you are very stout do
with just sufficient sleep, and above
all omit the nap in the middle of the
day.

DR.. PARKER'S TWO SERMONS
And How He Got the Morning Con-
gresation Back to His Church
at Night.

A characteristic story of DR.. Parker
was told by a minister who had it
from an old minister who was much
interested in Joseph Parker's early
work as a local preacher, says the
British Weekly. One Saturday he met
Parker and asked him whether he had
an engagement for Sunday. Yes"
was the reply.
Are your sermons ready, Joseph"
asked the minister
Il have the morning sermon" was
the reply, but l am not sure about
the evening"
We'll, Joseph, what is your text for
the morning and how do you treat it?"
Parker went over his text and the
outline Of his sermon.
But. Joseph" said the minister,
that is very clever, but # is not the
real meaning of the text. If you will
look at the commentaries you will see
that you are wrong"
Parker thanked him and went his
way. On the Monday the minister
again met his friend.
We'll, Joseph, how did you get on
yesterday"
Very we'll" was the reply.
How did you manager"
We'll, he said, Gin the morning 1
preached my sermon and explained
the text in my way, and at the close l
said: This is how | understand it. But
learned men understand it differently,
and l will tell you in the evening how
the learned men understand it."
They all came back in the evening,
and Joseph had happy day.

Flour Mills Now Working Over
Time

Because of the enormous amount of
wheat that must be handled this fall and
winter, the Mountain City Mills, the first
of this week began to work night and
day, or the entire "a hours Superin.
tendent G. w. Morton said recently that
in all probability the mill would be op-
Grated "a hours each day until next
spring, depending largely upon the
quantities of wheat TO be handled
With the exception of the flour mills
at Ellicott City, the Mountain City Mills
of Frederick are the largest in the State
of Maryland. 1t is expected that the
mill will draw about 600. 900 bushels of
wheat from Frederick county this wear.
The mills are taking just as much wheat
as they possibly can get from Frederick
county, which generally ranges from
200, 900 to 400, 900 bushels. But the
wheat that Frederick county furnishes
the mills is only small portion, and IN
fact, only about third OF the raw pro-
duct that is needed to keep the mill in
operation and to supply the demands of
the patrons of the mills. The remaining
two thirds is received from the West,
principally from Duluth. This wheat is
shipped via the Great Lakes to Buffalo,
and then by train to the mills i'll Fred
erick.
The local mill has capacity of about
100 barrels Of -four daily.

But we should not harshly criticize
the country minister for this condition
There are hundreds Of f0urishing
churches in Maryland that stand as
proof of this good work. His efforts
have been of inestsmable value and ne
is still giving more literally OF his
labor, his love, and of sacrificed ambi.
tons than should be necessary. He is
sacrificing more than ever an emisssry
of Christ, an example of the Life Of
Service, should be called upon to sacri.
flee. A living wage should be his
share, a religiously active community
his reward
One of the purposes of the confer
ences is to throw more light upon
practical ideals Of country life; to show
the possibilities of corporations; to
show how some ministers take ad
vantage of opportunities that Others
neglect to their sorrow.
1t as not the object nor the spirit OF
the conference to 6nd fault, nor to id
OiSe, but to giUe an opportunity 70,
the exchange of ideas as to the acGps
and means of "mdking the Church
Seroe the whole commN:2ity"
We have faith in the minister We
have faith in the farmer That the
farmer does not appreciate the eff
forts of the minister as he should, Is
shown by the fact that he fails to sup
port the Church, and allows it to strug.
gle on as though unworthy of his as
sistance. Some farmers claim that
the Church does not answer a real
need, that it is of little use to them
that its message is one which they
can do without. The minister replies
that the farmer is ungodly, irreligious.
or perverted. Are not both to blame
for such a condition? Should not the
farmer support the minister, and show
him how to be of service? And should
not the minister study the social and
economic life Of the farmer, that he
may like the Divine Leader teach in
terms of Gods Great Out-of-doors?
The Agricultural College, like SINH
lar institutions in other States, is tax.
ing the lead in bringing our ministers
together for this discussion of the
country problem since of it's freedom
as a State institution from denomina.
tional influence and its deep concern
in the welfare of the country neigh.
borhood make it the logical host for
such conference. The visiting minis
tiers will be entertained by the Col.
lege, leaving to them no other expense
than that of car fare to and from
College Park at the usual minister's
half-fare rate. AS a result, ministers
of all faiths are responding enthu.
siastically to the call, and those in
charge of the Conference report a very
satisfactory and growing registration.
If any minister in the State has failed
to receive an invitation, he is never
theless cordially welcome and is urged
to notify B. H. Darrow, Gen, Y. NJ G.
A. Secretary, College Park, of his In
tention to attend the Conference.

shrewd Butcher.

A certain English butcher, who sold
about 80 cooked legs of pork per week,
said his loss was formerly 40 per
cent and now only 20 per cent in
the electric oven, or a clear saving
of Is per cent After deducting the
cost of the current at two cents per
unit, his saving amounted to so cents
per leg of pork, or SIS per week extra
profit. On being told that he had
only saved water, he answered: Per
haps SO; but, you see, my customers
pay me 20 cents per pound for it!"-

PACKERS CONTROL PRICES
OF BEEF, SAYS WITNESS.

NEW YORK, Sept. 11.-Beef pack
ers of the United States now are in
absolute control of the Argentine
value of Argentine beef as compel
tive check on the price of native
beef, according to testimony given
before Chief Magistrate McAdoo to-
day at the inquiry into the advance
in food prices Jacob Block, member
of a firm owning several meat mar
kets in this city, asserted that every
bit of beef from Argentina must now.
be bought from the American pack
ers.
AS an instance of how this control
Influenced the price, the witness
stated that at one time beef hearts
could be bought for 25 cents each.
When the American packers obtain
ed control of the Argentine output,
he continued, beef hearts were put
into cold storage, thus diminishing
the supply, so that to-day the cost OF
these hearts is about $3.50 each.
The packers have arranged the ter
ritory outside New York City so that
the small dealers are at their mercy,
Mr.. Bloch testified.
In a small town incapable of sup
porting more than one good sized
establishment, one packing concern
is located, and the butchers are fore
ed to buy from that one packer. In
large places the business is split up.
Asked to explain the cause of the
present shortage of beef, the witness
said shortage had existed for thir-
teen years. In that time, he said,
the supply of cattle in this country
fell short of the demand by 100000
and the shortage was growing more
pronounced.
AS remedies for the present con-
ditions, he offered the following sug-
gestions for action by Congress:
An export duty should be placed
on beef; the Government lands OF
the West should be thrown open for
grazing; killing of any female calf
| under three or five years old, or OF
any calf weighing less than 15O
pounds, should be prohibited; ten
per cent of the income tax should be
used for fostering the raising of cat
tie; and public slanghterhouses, like
those of England, should be estab
lished by the Government.
