Personal Maansti.m.

Personal magnetism is a valuable
asset to the recital singer, and one
that is possessed in an exceptional de-
gree by Charles w. Clark, the inter-
nationally famous baritone. who is to
be heard at the Baptist temple on
Thanksgiving night, Nov. %.
Mr.. Clark radiates kindness and
liking for his fellow men, and slips
into the good, will of his audiences
from the very moment of his appear
ance on the stage. His art is abso-
lutely natural, and SO is the singer
himself, and his hearers never feel
otherwise than perfectly at home," a
feeling that makes the great baritone's
recitals doubly enjoyable. MARSHALL
town should feel highly favored In
having Mr.. Clark give us one of his
great recitals.

church had as its guests the classes of
the Sunday school, The meeting was
one of the best Of the series.
Evangelist Birch drove home some
definite scriptural teachings concern
ing the christian life and the method
of work. Interest In the sermon was
marked, and the response at the close,
when an invitation was given for those
who desire to give some form of a
testimony that they are followers Of
Christ, was good.
The service this evening will be
opened by a twenty five minute song
and prayer service. A chorus Of

TAKE NOTE OF SMALL THINGS
Not the Larger Dangers, But the In
significant, Are Most to be
Guarded Against.

Alike in the world Of nature and
the realm Of human conduct, the
things called little count for more in
the sum of good or evil than the
things acknowledged as great. Stat
istics would probably show that the
ravages Of gypsy moths, and other
parasites that feed on the products of
garden, field and forest, exceed the
ruin wrought by cyclones and earth
quakes. We are more likely to be
killed by microbes than devoured by
lions. The soldier may be in greater
danger from the neglect of sanitary
precautions than from the bullets of
the enemy. Some people are terrified
at the approach Of a thunderstorm.
and do not breathe freely until the
danger is past. Others would rather
forego the pleasure of foreign travel
than brave the perils of an ocean voy-
age. Yet poor ventilation numbers
more victims than the lightning, and
insufficient drainage than the temp
ests that strew the shore with
wrecks.-Universalist Leader.

DRILLED SOLDIER UNDER FIRE
Reckless Courage Shown by Russian
Captain In Driving Fear From
Subordinate.

At S~ebastopol, during the siege, q
Captain Samoiloff, wishing some wine,
ordered an officer to send a man for
1t. The man, a young soldier, took the
money and started on the, errand. Just
then, however, a French battery had
concentrated its fire upon the very
spot where the young man must go
outside the works. He stopped and
turned back.
Il wouldn't go out there for the
world" he said.
An officer, of course. reported the
act of disobedience to the captain. The
captain, in a rage, ordered the man
into his presence and demanded why
he had not obeyed his order.
II beg you to pardon me, captain,
but / was terribly afraid"
Afraid" cried the captain. Afraid!
A Russian soldier afraid Wait a min
ute. l will drive the fear out of you.
Come with me-"
The captain led the way to the ram
part, mounted 1t, and there, with the
bullets raining round him, began put
eAhb INC man thlOuSh bOn1C nlilldly CA
ercises. The lookers-on in the fort held
their breath. If a hat was put on a
bayonet and lifted above the walls
the bullets came that way on the in
slant.
Not many seconds elapsed before a
bullet struck the captain in the arm.
He did not vince, but kept on with his
drill, while the blood dripped down his
hand to the wall.
Next a bullet went through the tail
of the soldiers coat, and another
through his knapsack. Then suddenly
the firing ceased.
The soldier begged for grace and
promised to go wherever he was sent.
Still the captain continued his drill.
When he thought the lesson had been
learned, or, perhaps, when his wound
grew too painful, he dismissed the SOL
der and went himself to the surgeon
and had his arm dressed.
The French explained afterward
that they ceased firing out of sheer
establishment At the sight of the two
men exposing themselves SO reck-
lessly.

TABLE TALK.
By BENZ. V.

l see you are unlike Timothy
Stanby who lives in Grumble Lane.
He takes the Chief seat at the table
and then grumbles when it becomes
known that he is not fitted for it.
Yet, l am inclined to believe that
Timothy is coming to a wiser and
better way of living. Why? Because
he said to me recently, Il have decid.
ed to get out of Grumble Lane and
live in Thanksgiving street before
November %" And his wife is look
ing forward to a Thanksgiving feast
in their new home. Think how that
new home enables them to enjoy
Thanksgiving Day at least two weeks
distant for the first time in their
lives. They have been so busy re,
calling miseries, rather than mercies,
the defaults and crimes of men rather
than the goodness Of God that they
never thought of Thanksgiving a day
off. And today we can afford to be
courteous in saying that Mr.. and Mrs.
Timothy Standby are enjoying the
future. That is one of the highest
privileges of man. Imagine, if you
can, that you are seated before a
Thanksgiving feast in the twinkling
of an eye without the privilege of
tasting it in advance. Good things
would lose half their virtue if we
could not enjoy them before we get
them into u hands. And every good
thing which ONE to us we can en-
joy by anticipation, by realization, and
by memory. We give up certain days
of each year for memorials-the days
set aside for Washington, Lincoln,
Christmas, Independence and so OF
Each day has it's peculiar significance
for the things held sacred thru its
observance but non has any advant-
age in odds over Thanksgiving. No,
my friend, not because it is a day for
feasting. 1t gives the needed oppor-
tunity to crowd on the mind many
recollections of a kind Providence,
and to renew faith in these principles
of human conduct that rejoice in all
good of yesterday, all the blessings of
the present, and sees no terror in the
luluIe' anu II is wen mat THANKS
giving Day should be a festival and
time of family reunions in connection
with gratitude to Him who "setteth
the solitary in families" Think
how great are our educational and re-
ligious privileges and how blessed the
hope of immortal life Think what
might have been our lot. Regrets?
OF a certainty we all have. Disap-
pointments? Who has not? Battles?
Every mans life is a kind of war
fare. Therefore we must observe the
duty of a soldier, If the world buffets
us let us not be utterly cast down.
We will confront the good and evil
with serene eyes and a smile upon the
face, confident that time and human
effort to improve must eventually
right all injustice. And if we, as did
Timothy Standby fail to take into ac-
count these blessed hours of-but oh!
l have a strange sensation about my
heart. II it is lot indigestion, / think
it must be gratitude.
