THE SUNDAY LECTURE

J. d. Naismith, of Flint, speaking
at the Auditorium, last Sunday, held
the attention of his audience from
beginning to end. He brought out
some startling claims, giving numer-
Gus quotations from the scriptures in
proof. He seemed to find wonder
full harmony in Gods book. The
great upheaval in the earth in the
last four years was seen as a step in
a marvellous program, divinely ar
ranged; prelude to usher in the uni
versal peace under the reign of the
Prince of Peace. Mr.. Harbeck, of
Detroit, will deliver another lecture
next Sunday, for particulars of which
see the large display ad published
elsewhere in these columns.

GRANGE NOTES

The Grange meeting at Fenton, Mar.
q, was grand success. The Fenton
degree teams did the work in the third
and fourth degrees in very pleasing
manner. About forty took these two
degrees. TIL ,mona degree was con-
ferred by the Pomona officers and was
well received. One hundred took this
degree. The sixth degree was a very
impressive one and was we'll rendered
by the State Officers. One hundred
and fifty persons enjoyed receiving this
degree. State Master j. G. Ketcham
gave short talk in his usual stirring
manner and Judge |. w. Jaynes, of
Detroit, gave fine talk on the import
ance of farmers organizations. Alto
gether it was very pleasing and profit
able day and one long to be remember
ed.
A Granger not only by degree,
But wholly, every farmer ought to be,
To help his neighbor as well as himself,
To gather in the lucrative pelf.
Not only that, but in other ways,
You can help each other in way that
pays.
We surely should not live by bread
alone
But by brotherhood securely won.

The editor of The Messenger would
briefly call attention to the large adj
vertisement of the Victory Liberty
Loan which appears on another page.
He did not have the time to write
long editorial on the subject of the
Victory Loan this week, but the ad-
vertisement itself is an editorial, from
a logical point of view, and he would
like to have everyone read it. No
other nation involved in the war
came through at so small cost or
stands to reap so large a reward,
therefore every citizen should feel it
a privilege as we'll as an obligation
to support the government to the
utmost of his ability.

also thank those who gave assistance
at the time of the fire. That each and
every one of them may be spared ad-

our earnest wish.

catch sight Of him, must never take
his eyes off for a single moment
Watching him carefully, he must run
and catch him, and if he succeeds in
doing so the Leprechaun will ransom
himself by leading his captor to a
creek of buried gold. At least, so runs
the legend.
Some years ago French shepherd
of Aveyron lost two sheep. The fol-
lowing evening a figure in black robe
and with tonsured head appeared to
him, and told him to look for the lost
members of his flock in cave near
Altes, adding that he would there find
"mOre than sheep"
The next day the shepherd found
the cave mouth exactly as described
Inside were his two sheep. Beyond
he came upon chapel carved in the
rock and containing chalices, censers
and candle-sticks all made Of solid
silver, and of very considerable value.
A letter found in misSal showed that
the place had been used as a place of
worship during the Reign Of Terror In
1893. The shepherd took the orna-
ments to his parish priest and was
we'll rewarded for his find.

How Asbestos Is Produced.

The finest asbestos, and the great
er part of the worlds supply, comes
from Quebec. Asbestos is fibrous
mineral that can be spun and woven
into fabrics as fine as silk, which are
unaffected by temperatures of from
1000 to 5000 degrees F. 1t is found
in layers filling assures in certain SER
pentine rocks. It is believed that,
when the rock was forming and still
hot, water penetrated the assures, wild
ened them and dissolved some Of the
silica and magnesia. On drying, these
crystallZed as hydrated silicate of
magnesia, forming threadlike crystals
building up from opposite walls OF the
assures and meeting in the middle.
No one has yet discovered how fine
ly asbestos fibers can be split. A
microscope magnifying 900 dameters
revealed fibers that are estimated to
be five one-milionths Of an inch thick.

AFTER SLEEP OF CENTURIES
EccIesiastic May Be Said to Have Re-
turned to Earth for Few
Brief Moments.

There was a little gathering in the
green graveyard Of an old priory
church. There was the rector and an
old antiquary in rusty black, a few
neighboring squires, the county police
sergeant, the sexton and laborer or
two, while an ancient stone coffin, re-
Gently unearthed, lay on the ground.
"Who do you suppose it is, profess
sor?" inquired the rector.
The old man in black polished his
glasses and adjusted them carefully.
1T must be Thomas DeBoehm's," he
said. "Thomas who was prior here in
the time of Henry III, about 1920. But
we shall see."
A hush fell on the group as the men
set to work with hammer and chiscl.
GAIL ready" the sexton reported
presently They took off their hats and
the policeman removed his helmet. The
ponderous lid was slowly pushed aside
and they were gazing at the calm,
strong face of an ecclesiastic in rich
silk vestments, wrapped in his 700
years sleep.
'Yes, it's Thomas" murmured the
professor, with the air of one recog-
nizing an old friend. "Very like the
contemporary portrait on the vellum."
AS they continued to gaze, spell
bound, weird thing happened. The
vestments gradually lost their color
ing and then all that the coffin con-
tanned crumbled before their eyes to a
mere handful Of ashes.
"Dust to dust" whispered the rec
tor.

Too Crowded.

The story of a New York woman
who number Of years ago remarked,
upon seeing three automobiles on
Broadway in a single afternoon, that
she "did not know what pass we are
coming to-" is paralleled by the fol-
lowing paragraph, taken from "Cali-
fornia Desert Trails" S. Smeaton
Chase's book:
"The cowboys liking for unlimited
range was illustrated by my friends
complaint that newcomers were
crowding him out. A neighbor mile
away in one direction and another
four miles off in the other were the
grounds of objection; and the road was
getting to be durn boulevard: there

We now know that the so-called
"thunderbolt" is very powerful flash,
which disturbs the ground like burst
ing shell. The action Of a lightning
stroke on an insufficiently protected
building may be compared to the ef-
feet Of a very heavy rainfall on house
which has insufficient cutters and
rainwater pipes. The water. before it
can escape, will probably flood the
building. A single lightning rod, fixed

The principles Of the American q
Federation Of Labor are the same as
required of an good citizens, and
the people of the United States will
rejoice to learn that they are one

But history often repeats itself.
A century and a quarter ago the
people of France arose in their ma

Bourbons. They had suffered long
and patiently, hoping that time
would bring relief from the burdnes
the third estate Tor working clas-

were not regicides nor anarchists IT

ing the pinnacle of their career the
Jacobjns, the cut-thrcats OF. th(

being their loyalty and conserva
