Good Reasons
For Buying Ceal Now

1-You save soc on each 1000 lbs.
The money spent for coal this month is
equal to an investment earning more than
1919.
2-You get better quality coal.
The coal is not rushed through the break
ers in an effort to fill all orders received as is
the case in winter. The less time taken the
poorer the preparation.
s-You get less slate in coal.
The buster the mine operators are the
faster the coal goes past the breaker boys,
who pick out the slate. The result is lots of
slate gets past the boys-you get the slate.
4-You get cleaner COAL
Coal shipped in winter is often frozen solid
in the cars Sometimes it is necessary to use
picks and bars to remove the coal.
Being wet and frozen, it is impossible to
screen out the fine dirt.
Place your order today.

daunt lovers of sport and there were
numerous games of scrub played on
improvised diamonds on vacant lots,
while every golf course had it's devo-

but they found the courts not in any

How About This, Bishop

Bishop Keily's flock are so exultant over it,
that they spell out the converts name in full,
Rer. Walmoth Alexander Farmer
Then, IN order to make Bishop Warren

that this Mr.. Farmer was native of Conyers

Methodist College at Oxford.

scholars, for he graduated In 1898.
No wonder the Romanists are blowing
bugles and shouting Hosannas.
The Methodist teachers of Farmer must
have failed to explain to the youth the un-
Christian character of Romanisn, and to put
him on his guard against it,
Hoeo naapy Protestant parents, teachers and
preachers are guilty of the same neglect?
They sent the Methodist preacher off to
China, to convert the heather, and he wound
up by becoming a pagan, himself.
| wonder how many ducats the Nashville
Board of Missions sent to Mr.. Farmer; and
I wonder how many pink letters he wrote to
Go ForDard, Missionary Voice, and Mission
arg 1adangs, while he was in China shedding
his Methodist skin.
In explaining how he came to change cars,
Farmer says, in effect, that he had SO much
idle time on his hands in China. that he took
to reading Romanist books
Apparently, he did not compare the Ro-
manist books with The Book; and hence he
lost his footing, and became Mary Joseph
Worshlpper instead Of Christ worshipper.

Fellow citizens What is to become of our
Foreign Missions, if the Romanist submarines
sink our missionaries?
Honestly. [ think that Farmer ought to
borrow money enough from the Pope, to reim-
burse our Methodist brethren for all they
have spent on him.
Our resources are limited, and we simply
can not afford to educate Methodist young
men for the Papas priesthood
No reasonable Pope could expect us Meth
odist bishops to prepare young theologs for
his service
In Mr.. Farmers explanation Of his flop,
he indicates that his mind was overthrown by
the following proposition Of Cardinal Man

is Christianity"

the other part is what reasoners call, a non

This verbal trick often succeeds with people

Infanticide i'm Nunneries.
Ample evidence is on record to convince every
lover of truth that Popish nunneries on the con
tnent of Europe have been the systematic abodes
of cruelty, debauchery and MURDER and that in
fant1cide was the most common form Of con-
ventual murder. The following fearful case adds
another to the long list of nfantcida discoveries
in Romish nunneries The account is given by
the Rev. j. Richardson, LIB, a clergyman of
wealth and position moving in high London So
ciety. He records it in his work: '"Recollections
of the Last Half-Century," 1856, vol. H. PIP. lis,
116.
Mr.. richardson was in Paris, when about 1927
Messrs Manly & Wilson, iron masters, erected
their large premises at Charento-sur-Seine, near
Paris. The buildings they purchased had been a
convent inhabited by of the rigid orders of
nuns Mr.. George Holcroft, the engineer who
superintendent with Mr. Armstrong in digging out
the ground for the power-w wheels, "discovered to
their SURPRISE if not to their ediication, upwards
of four hundred skeletons of infants buried in the
SOIL This evidently murder which did cry
aloud and bring to light some of the infamies
which the conventual system engenders."
communication Immediately made to the
mayor, who took all the pains he could to keep
the affair secret; and the remains of the children
were conveyed away in boxes with as much pr-
vacy possible, and buried in a neighboring
cemetery.
The mayor of course, a Romanist and
therefore in accordance with the universal Romish
practice, was extremely DESTROYS of keeping such
monstrous scandal to his church, and such
exposure of the wickedness of his church nuns, a
profound secret. d. J.

This sounds big but it was discussed
and there is more in it than mere hot
air
The powers discussed New York and
Boston and that much was told in
stories of the meeting given out after
the session was ovec. However. dis
cusslon which was not published dealt
with Providence or Portland as hkeli-
hood providing either the New York or
the Boston plans fell through. 1t will
cost the Fedcrais a barrel of money to
loca-e near enough to the heart of New
York City to make baseball there for
them anywhere near a paying PROPOSE
ton and the league magnates realize
this even though they make bold to
claim a team win be placed in New
York next year. The Boston PROPOSE
ton also means an expensive start for
the Federals. too, and this the mag
mates also realize.
Establishment of a team here in
Portland would not involve enormous
expense and it would simply be a mat
/. Ter OF support. And. of course support

Gle of base ball provided. The league
. heads did not discuss placing major
league clubs in both Providence and
Portland, but in one of the other and
it is believed that this City is far
better baseball town than Providence,
despite the balance of populat ton in
favor OF the Rhode Island city.

When Hugh Duffy signed his lea se

wouldn't be surprising if such q prop

Climax for this city. if Mr. Duffy would

Portland as city and as a baseball II

been lessened in the slightest degree
by the weak crowds out for the sport
thus far this season. 1t is realized
