GOD AND THE FARMER

God sat down with the farmer When the nOon1tids I1 heat gTew harsh And the other had drained a marsh They sat in the cooling shadow At the porch of the templed wood; And each looked forth on his handi. And saw that the work was good. On Gods right hand two cherubs Bent waiting, winged with fire; On the farmers left his oxen bowed, stiff stiifHi eiune G around md the the blow pioWshare mare The dark, mysterious mold Where the furrow 1t turned had heavet Ger the chill and churlish old. Jehovah's face was seen not By OK or grazing kIne; But the farmers eyes, were they dazet Or saw he that look divine? Was it the wind in passing
 That stroked that farmers hair? Or had Gods own hand of wind anG Laid benediction there? Through mufrling miles he fancied Far calls of greeting blew, Where on sounding plains the lord Of c, Hurled ], down t1E, to E;a4 rear s1fIg snsE
 Crossed faint those dreamland Like a SrOther's cry from a distant And God spake at the pine-tree
 sounds. There are seven downy meadows That never before were mown; There were seven fields of brush and
 rock
 Where now is no bush nor stone. There are seven heifers grazing Where but one could graze before. O lords of marts-and of broken
 hearts
 What have you given more?" God rose LID with the farmer When the cool of the evening neared: And the One went forth through the
 worlds he built,
 And the one through the fields he
 cleared. The stars outlasting labor
 Leaned down OCT the towering soil; And all night long OCT His child there

Here's s Natures 5 Own
 Remedy for Catarrh
HyOmei Relieves Catarrh Without the
 Use of Dangerous Drugs.

Not until Hyomei was discovered has it been possible to truthfully say that a real remedy for catarrh was known
 Hyomei is an oil and it's air is breathed through a small inhaler fur nished with it for a few minutes fOl[ times a day and during that time every particle of this Hyomei-laden air taken into the air passages and lungs is impregnated with a powerful germ-killing and health giving anti septic.
 Sprays and lotions often cause dis orders of the respiratory tracts or bring on some other diseases and never make permanent cure of ca tarrh. But when the air of Hyomei penetrates to the inmost air cells of the lungs and enters the blood with the oxygen it not only kills the germs in the throat and nose, but kills the bacilli in the blood, freeing the mu- cous membranes from poisonous mi rrobes and giving perfect health
 A complete outfit is inexpensive and includes an inhaler, dropper and suf- lcient Hyomei for several weeks treat ment.
 Lee & Osgood have so much faith in the merit of Hyomei that they agree to return the money to any purchaser who is not thoroughly satisfied.

AMERICAN SUPPORT FOR
 HOSPITAL AT TOXIC, JAPAN
President Wilson and His Fiancee At
 tend Meeting in Its Interest.

Washington, Dec. 13.-President Will son and his fiancee, Mrs. Norman Gait members of the cabinet and NiscOunt Chinda, the Japanese ambassador, at tended a meeting held here late today in the interest of St. Luke's Interna- tional hospital at Tokio, Japan.
 Dr. Rudolf F. Teusler, superintendent of the hospital, Mrs. Charles R. Pan- coast of Philadelphia and Bishop L. L. Kinsolving of Brazil urged that Americans support the hospital as an evidence of friendship between the United States and Japan. This pro- ject, Dr. Teusler said, would establish a modern hospital in the Far East and he added that the promotion of such institutions was the best way to build up good relations between the two countries.
 Substantial subscriptions followed an appeal for assistance voiced by Bishop Alfred Harding of Washington who presided. The emperor of Japan has given $250 to the hospital

NORWICH TOWN
Work at Providence Deaconess Home Described at Methodist Church. Guest from Chicago-Briefs and Personals

Sunday evening at the First Meth odist church there was a most inter- esting address by Miss Hagan, a member of the Deaconess home on Prairie avenue. Providence. Less than 2S years ago this deaconess work was started, she said, without a cent; now it has property amounting to $4,OOO, = 900. This has come mostly from small gifts. There are homes for the aged, for babies, homes and schools for boys and girls, hospitals, sanitariums and rest homes all over the country; the deaconesses number 1000. With wide open door we care for the needy, des- titute, lonely, forsaken and aged.
 The Providence work is nearly as old as the Boston, which was the oldest. In the Providence plant are visiting deaconesses, two girls homes, the Central Girls league, fresh air work travellers aid in the union sta tion. We began first to visit in the homes of the people. the sick, shut-in. poor, the stranger In the latter case many church letters have been brought to light. The deaconess is pastors as- sistant, working in different church societies. The speaker showed the contrast between wealthy and poverty and how each has helped the other. If you could come with me and see the drink misery in all it's awfuIness, pov- erty and distress, you would never for get it.
 The Central Girls league is in the heart of the city and is for those who work in stores and factories. There is a rest room and a room where they can heat their lunch. Last month 1900 girls had lunches there. The members number 500, paying 25 cents a year. There are classes in sewing, gymnastics, and for study. All this is thoroughly appreciated. and the girls are found in the church ser vices. The Prairie avenue home is for working girls; we have 23 who are earning small wages, with no home, or homes at a distance. We ask three or four dollars a week for room and board. These girls earn from $4.32 to $7 per week. It haunts me the great army whom we can't help. wish we could have laws enforcing decent wage. Until then we must shield, protect, counsel and guide the young girls of today. We must just keep trying. Some day we shall say: Everything is all right, and I had a little part in it. We have the glori- ous thought that we are co-workers together with God.

HARTMAN HAD HIS
 EYES ON BOSTON & MAINE
At One Time Mellen Was Almost
 Ready to Sell 1t to Him.


 New York. Dec. 13.-The late E. H. Hartman had his eyes on the Boston and Maine railroad, and at one time Charles $. MelIen was almost ready to sell it to him. according to MT. Mel lens testimony today at the trial of the eleven former directors of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad under the Sherman antitrust law. But the New Haven finally de- clined to sell and obtained from Mas sachusetts legislation which enabled it to hold the Boston and Maine under the laws of that state.
 Had Hartman acquired the road MT. Mellen testified, the result would have been that the entire New Eng land railroad system would have lost its independence. The New Haven, with Hartman in control of the Bos- ton and Maine, would have been un- able to maintain it's independence of the trunk lines to the west.

DRAW WEALTH FROM FARMS
Enormous Sun, Annually Gathered In
by Tillers Of the Soil In the
United States.

From Farms In 1914 the United
States produced a yield worth $4,000
100000. Could cotton have been mar.
keted as usual the total would have
been close to half a billion more. Ten
billion dollars representing honest
work! Ten billion dollars untainted
money! And going mostly into the
pockets of the workers themselves.
with little reaching the purses of labor
exploiters. The beautiful thing about
this great item of our national wealth
next to its cleanliness. is the fact that
1t can be increased indefinitely by a
more general adoption OF scientific ag-
riculture. In fifteen years it has been
doubled; and still. on our new soil,
we farm only third as effectively as
do many foreign peoples on soil CEN
turies longer in use. The forest. cut
unwisely. is gone. The mineral. once
mined. is not renewable. But on his
broad acres the tiller OF the soil can
take and take again: and though he
has to fertilize. the more he does 1t the
more he earns. So. come war, come
pestilence. come anything but CONT.
nent-wide drought, here is a broad base
for our future welfare, upon which we
can build expandingly and securely.
The man with the hoe Is, indeed. the
best hope of the future. f.
