never go away disappointed, for our

THE MILLS RIVER CHURCHES.

After four years stay at SWannanoa,
and regretting very much to leave the
friends we made while there, we came
to Mills River on the 18th of last No
ember and were warmly received by
the very kind and hospitable people.
Here we have five churches, located
in this beautiful valley. with he par
sonage about two miles from the juno
ton of Mills and French Broad rivers,
and three miles from Horse Shoe, our
post Office and nearest railway station.
This is a great farming section-one
of the best in the state-with a good.
substantial citizenship.
We have had So far, a very pleas
ant. and 1 believe, profitable years
work ON this charge. We have held
four meetings-at Horseshoe, Mills
River. Avery's Creek, and Sard1s.
Brothers Burgess. Dawson. Underwood
and billiard assisted me in these meet,

Snakes in China.

1t is not always safe to kill a snake
In China. says the Philadelphia North
American. 1t doesn't matter much
whether the snake is of the water
species or of the land variety, for with,
in this reptiles body is supposed to
reside the spirit of what the yellow
man worships as the dragon king. This
latter is believed by the average super
stitious John to have the power of
ruling over floods. This dragon king
represents one symbol in the ritual OF
worship of the Chinese religion called
Taoism.
