Paint the Church

The Bingville church is badly in need
of new coat of paint and has been
for that matter for several yrs. past.
The last time the church was painted
was in 1879, according to Dxd Hender-
son, who is our Oldest inhabitant and
ort to know, but Hold Peters says he
thinks it was four yrs. later than that.
Be that as it may, fresh coat of
paint wouldn't hurt the Bingville church
a bit. In fackt it would add much to
it, being as it looks at present as if it
never had been painted sinst il was bilt
whenever that was.

Harriet Beecher Stowe.

Say the publishers of Harriet
Beecher Stowe" by Martha Foote
Grove Cd. Appleton & Co, s1.25)-
a book that every boy and girl in the
whole country and their parents, too,
should know by heart.
Perhaps this is asking a good deal,
but the life of the woman who wrote
Uncle Toms Cabin" ought to be an
inspiration to young Americans. Mrs.
Stowe for years battled with poverty
and misfortune. Fortunately, she al
ways had the uplifting influence Of a
real love to help her. Married at
20, for fourteen years she knew the
trials Of small means and growing
cares. Her children added to her
household responsibilities while she
lived in Cincinnati and a seventh
was born in Maine. She was a de-
voted mother first and always.
She was 40 years when she sent her
first installment OF Uncle Toms
Cabin" TO the National Era. an anti
slavery paper in Washington. The
story ran from June to April.
Within a year 100000 copies had
been sold here and 100000 in Eng
land. by 1918" says the biographer
there were sixty-six translations."
A romance of literature sure enough
and one deserved by it's author. The
biographer shows that Miss Stowe
was a woman of rare soul. Because
or her great place in the memory OF
her country, this book, revealing her
courage and hope in her daily life,
can only add to the already wide
esteem in which her memory is held.

The Streak.

There are all kinds of streaks, but

The hero was college man and

Beside the Bonnie Briar Bush" is
a classic. and now the son OF the
writer of the classic offers novel
built on that scarcely worthwhile in
dividual, Prince Charlie &c. p, Dut-
ton & Co. $3.50.
Mr.. Frederick Watson has written
with feeling and with keen knowl-
edge of the Highlands many little
known episodes OF that glamourful
but unworthy heir to a world of for
feited realities.
He takes the Prince from Paris to
Scotland, and with him several of his
devoted followers. Ut is hard to con-
ceiye OF anyone being devoted for
long to such a shallow and selfish in
dividual.) Not the least of his ad-
herents is Ethlenn Murdoch, and the
tale hinges on the sacrifice OF noble
men and nobler women for this out
cast Stuart.
