The silent hills lift thin bare crest,
And mutcly plead for needed rest.
The poor old hills are cleft and worm
The plowman's share their life has
torn.
Through shade and shine their own
secure.
A lovely robe of living green.
Which glistened like the velvet's sheen
Beneath the robe SO rich and rare.
Was held GODS SOIL In Jealous care.
When torrents came the wealth to
steal
Twas guarded fast with sod as seal.
Who robbed these hills and took their
own?
All, plowman. say! You must atone.
TO you these gaping wounds cry out:
TO you the starving ones will shout.
You're just n tenant to guard and keep
This footstool made for the Masters
How dare you then lay waste and bare
That which He formed In loving carer
Between the lines OF Sacred Book.
You'll surely find II you but look:
God intended green hills to keep
For cloven hoof of kline and sheep.
Who was the man of Gods own
heart?
To whom was Christmas anthem sung?
To shcpherds-glad that Christ had
come.
What gracious gift did God first keep?
A lamb-brought by one keeping sheep,
And ever since those days Of old.
Has been the type of love untold.
o. plowman. heed the silent plea.
Which these worn hills now make to
thee;
O. give them back their robes TO keep.
And grazo once more with Gods own
sheep.
Just think, these hills are held In trust,
For those to come, when you're but
Forgive they will, forgetting all.
Cover your grave with soft green pail.
MRS, w. D. DOAK.

Lime Treatment
in tuberculosis

In the May 25, 1912, issue of the Jour
nal of the American Medical Association
appeared this statement concerning cal
cium Qime) medication in the treatment
of pulmonary tuberculosis Consumption
"Under the systematic, continued and
persistent regime of calcium assimilation,
Van GlesOn has seen number of his
patients improve, undergo IN oxidation
or partial consolidation in the lung, which
then resolving would appear to contribute
to the walIing off and closing of the
LESSONS. Hand in hand with this course
of events, the sputum clears up of tubercle
baciIli, which finally disappear, and the
patients are discharged with healed pull
mOnary tuberculosis"
Ethical medical journals seldom speak
SO positively about a remedial agent. vet
this testimony comedies with that from
many cOnsumptives who have secured like
results through the use of Eckman's AL
terative.
Since calcium is a constituent Of this
remedy for pulmonary tuberculosis and
allied throat and bronchial affections its
healing power may al some measure be
attributed TO the manner in which this
element IS so combined with other in
gradients as to be easily assimilated by
the average person and it does not irritate
the stomach.
Eckman's Alternative contains no opiates,
narcotics or habit-fOrming drugs, so Il is
safe to try. II your druggist is out Of It.

According to Rev A. G.. Schafer

vice a number of those present were
TED. The mission makes a practice of
sending no one away hungry no mat

As a result Of the appeal made in
The News-Times Sunday, George II.
Wheelock & Co. has agreed to supply
the victrola. The company also agreed
TO keep the mission we'll supplied with
records.
While the mission is planned TO be
self supporting. there are many things
needed TO furnish it. A range would
be welcomed as all the cooking is be-
ing done on a gas stove at present.

by way of explanation / wish to
say that a contract was made with
the American City bureau for the
organization of the Chamber Of

the holding of group meetings for d
period of three months or less, for
which purpose Mr.. Haynes was sent
TO this city The fact that the Cham

necessary to hold these group meet

OYSTERS MADE TO
 PRODUCE PEARLS

or the many strange farms to be found in various parts of the world, the most extraordinary, says the Christian Herald. are the pearl oyster farms of Japan. Hero the pearl oyster is made to produce the precious gems in a reliable and method- ical manner. while another interesting feature of the venture is that the oye- ters containing them are brought to the surface by women divers
 It was Dr. MilSmoto we'll known and wealthy Japanese scientist. who discov- cred how the pearl oyster could be mada to werk for man and produce the much prized stone at his will It took years of costly experiment to produce this result. The farm" where these precious stones are produced has water area of some to nautical square miles. varying in depth from five to l5 fathoms. Small pieces of stone are placed where the larvae of tho oysters have been found to be most abun- dant. Scon small oyster spat are found attached to them. These are then taken up and removed to special beds, where they lie until their third year
 Now an oyster will not produce a pearl unless it is irritated inside the shell by some foreign substance. It then proceeds at once to make good the defect by GOV ering the irritant spot with beautiful layers of nacre. The oysters are taken is performed on each one of them, which consists in introducing foreign sub stance. and by the end of three to five years the animal has covered the in- serted nucleus with many layers of nacre or in other words has produced pearl Women divers bring up from 90 to DO of these n minute.

BUILD THEIR OWN
 SUMMER RESORT

Twenty families of Granite City. mem- bers of the Alaska Country club, have not gone to the seashore or the moun- tains this summer. says St. Louis spe- cal to the New York Herald Instead they have erected cottages in a secluded spot near stalling. cast of Granite City, the only stipulation to the contractor be- ing that no cottage should cost more than $20O. The members Of these fam ilies say that they are having a much better time than could be possibly had at a fashionable summer resort.
 When the ground for the country club was purchased small lot of 15 by 70 feet was apportioned to each member upon which to build a house. By agree ment, none of these cottages was to cost more than $200 for workmanship and ma terial. None of the cottages contains more than two rooms, so the housekeep- ing duties are light.
 The swimming pool was built by sub scription. It is walled with concrete and has sand at the bottom to give it the correct ocean effect. Water is supplied by a windmill. which is equipped with a motor.
 Following a popular trend, each cottage has been named and neat sign bearing the title is placed over the door. Among these names are noted "rhe Ballyhasse,' Dew Drop h. La Coon Vista" Tho Hawthorne" and san Soussi.'
 Among the things which contribute to the atmosphere of the resort Is a long strip of sandy road which fronts the place and which has been named "The Beach.'' A wall or breaker conceals the club from the eyes of the profane, the only entrance being through a cut in this embankment, on either side of which ia the sign, Private grounds keep out'

CHARGE U. s. BEEF
 PACKERS CONTROL
 ARGENTINE OUTPUT

New York, September 9.-Beef packers of the United States are ia absolute con trol of the Argentine beef output. thus destroying the value of Argentine beef as a competitive check on the price of the native beef, according to testimony given today in Chief Magisti ate Me Adoo's inquiry into the advance in food firm owning several New York meat mar kets, asserted that all Argentine beef must be bought from American packers.
 Packers have arranged territory out side New York city go that the small dealers are at their mercy, Mir. Bloch testified. In a small town incapable of supporting more than one good sized es- tablishment one packing concern is To- cated and butchers are forced to buy from that one packer. In large places the business is split up.
 The witness said a beef shortage had existed for 13 years. In that time, he said, the supply of cattle in this country fell short of the demand by 100000 and shortage was growing more pronounced.
 As remedies for present conditions, he offered the following suggestions for ac- tion by Congress-
 An export duty should be placed on Leef; 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 150 pounds should be prohibited; 10 per cent of the income tax should be used for fostering the raising of cattle: public slaughter houses should be established by the gov ernmert.

BETTER TONE IN THE SOUTHERN MARKETS Feeling in New York Cotton Trade Circles Even More
 Optimistic

New York. September 9.-The more on tmistic feeling noted in local cotton trade circles yesterday was even more in ev'- dence today and seemed to be largely based on the reports of better tone in the southern spot markets.
 Handlers of spot cotton said that their private advices from the south as well as the offers that were being received by New England mills suggested that south ern shippers were becoming less panicky as to the probable effect of increasing supplies owing to the measures being taken to relieve the immediate necessities of needy planters and to facilitate the holding movement. "Buy-a-bale" clubs are said to be forming all over the south while rapid progress is also reported in the work of building warehouses, aud many reports indicating that farmers are merely holding in the seed or hauling it back from the gins.
 So far but little improvement has been reported in demand. Canadian mills are said to be buying considerable cotton and there have been moderate purchases for export.
