Many parents are inclined to believe

SO, 100000 Most of these horses were
sold to the British, French and United
States governments for artillery and
cavalry purposes. Horses sold here
during 1915 were shipped to almost
every part OF the United States. Most
of the horses sold by this Caldwell firm
were bought from farmers. ranchers
and horse dealers in Idaho. Oregon and
Washington. and quite a few came
from Nevada and California.
Bought 100000 Worth of Hay.
During the year 1915 the Caldwell
Horse & Mule company bought $780,
900 worth OF hay from the growers in
this part of the state; $35, 900 worth OF
this hay was bought since September
1t is seen from this that the great
market for horses, mules and hay
furnished here by the Caldwell Horse
e. Mule company is a big benefit to
the country. Not only is a splendid
market created here for horses and
hay. but through IT the farmers are
kept in touch with market prices for
horses. This is matter of import
ance to every grower of horses and
mules in the northwest.

CHINESE TRlCKERY.

Traders Who Keep Their Victims In
Financial Slavery.
Dishonest travelling merchants in
China find a particularly lucrative field
In which to ply their labors, with the
result that almost unbelievable consc-
quenccs come to light now and then.
Some traders, taking advantage of the
simplicity Of the Mongolians. make an
attractive display Of goods such as the
natives crave to possess, and tempt
them to purchase what catches their
fancy.
Woe to one who is beguiled to walk
into the snare. for the glib tongue Of
the travelling merchant will soon in
duce him to take possession of that
particular article to which his attcn-
tion is directed at any price demand

case he has nothing to give in return

interest. everything will be satisfac-
tory. However, the merchant on re-
turning seldom collects the price, but
is satisfied with carrying away the
promised interest, leaving the pur-
chaser in debt SO that he can forever
milk him.
Thus, it is not rare to see some
Mongolans working for the payment

Curious Teleqranh [ ines.

The most original telegraph line in
the world once extended from La Plaz.
the capital OF Bolivia, to the neighbor-
ing town of Oruro Il distance of about
1876 miles. There are no growing trees
in this part OF the world, and wood OF
any kind is so rare that the telegraph
poles were made Of the same material
as the natives household furniture
dried mud. The pillars were built ON
stone foundations and measured about
five feet square ut the base, with n
tapering height of fifteen feet. They
were placed about 3GO feet apart. An
other curious telegraph line was con.
structed in Uganda by British en-.
gincer, who transported growing trees
to the roadside and used them as poles
because he could not find any dead"
wood that would withstand the raw
ages OF the white ants. In Dutch
East India growing trees are also
turned to account in this manner. but
there wire is stretched across the
road between the trees ON either side
and the actual telegraph line suspend
ed down the center.

Verses 12-17.-Sons and heirs.
In the eighth chapter of his letter to
the Romans Paul draws an ideal pic
ture Of the life of the Christian. 1t is
life that finds its power in the pos
session Of the Holy Spirit The Spirit
it is that unites to Christ and frees
from the power Of sin and death.
When the law failed to transform our
characters, because our tleshly nature
could not measure up to its require
ments, God, through the incarnation
and death Of his Son, sealed the death
warrant Of sin in the flesh and, by
making it possible for us to thrust
aside the flesh and live under the do
minion Of the Spirit, brought about the
salvation Of our character the law could
not achieve. The contrast in Paul's
thought between mans physical and
spiritual being is very sharp. The
physical, or carnal, nature he consid-
ers worthy only Of destruction. The
spiritual nature IS immortal. The
fieshly nature, which formerly control
led us and still controls so many brings
the mind into an attitude of hostility to
God. If Christ dwells within, although
the carnal body may sink into death,
the Spirit is already eternally alive,
and the presence Of the Spirit is
pledge that God will cause the mortal
body to rise in the resurrection.
Such Il high destiny is challenge as
we'll as n promise. 1t places upon us
a moral obligation. I'VE are debtors"
to Christ mot to live after
the hesh,' which brings inevitable
spiritual death. but to put to death
the deeds Of the body"-that Is, to re-
strain and reprcss all our acts that are
not under the control Of the spiritual.
If we do SO we "shall live A des-
tiny which is ours because we are
.'sons OF Cod 1t is known that we
have this relationship because we are
''led by the Spirit Of Cod And we
have the testimony of our own spirits,
which ''received' at the beginning of
our Christian career mot" the feeling

duced, but consciousness of "adop-

Verses 2G, 27.-The Spirits interces-
sion.
In that portion of the lesson which is
not printed the apostle works out a
magnificent conception of all creation
moving on through pain to the consum-
nation 1t Is a passage that reminds
us of the modern scientific theory of
the survival of the fitteSt in the Strug-
gle for existence. So Christians move
on from the weakness of the present
toward the glory Of the future But
the certain hope of the future makes
us ready to endure the sufferngS of
the present. We cannot pray for the
removal of our suffering or intirmity
because we know not how to pray
as we ought. But the Spirit prays
within us in ineXpressible longings-
"groanngs that cannot he uttered. and
he that Searcheti the hearts" under
stands "the mind of the Spirit which
is in accordance "tO the will of Gol''
and is seeking by interccsSion for tho
realization of perfection in each be-
lever. Thus are our prayers brought
into accord with Gods purpose.
Verses 2S-3O.--God's purpose.
When we are thus under the control
Of the Spirit we can see Gods purpose
working out in his universe. We can
see that 'all things" even our suffer
ings, are parts Of a plan by which God
is bringing about good to them that
love" him. According to his purpose
it was that in eternity God looked upon
his children and regarded them with
favor or 'foreknew' them. Having so
regarded them he appointed or "fore-
ordained" them ''to he confornel''-
to attain-"to the -likeness-"o
his Son. in order that he might be
the firstborn" or eldest in Il glorious
family composed of "many brethren.
Gods will for the Christian has fol
lowed his knowledge. but it is to be
noted that this will is for the sanctifi-
cation and glorification Of those whom
he favorably regards. And Gods plr-
pose can be thwarted by mans free
dom. Having Called them, God "jus-
tilted" them. or accepted them as right
eous, and brought them to his glory.
No wonder that Paul under the spell
Of such Il purpose on Gods part can
burst forth in the assurance that the
Christian need fear no evil. His whole
life was a demonstration Of the power
of Christ to keep Il Christian in every
possible experience. And everywhere
he went he not only demonstrated this
power, but also explained how to pos,
sess It.
