THE CHURCH.

Many churches take vacation dur
ing the month OF August with the
idea of starting in the fchool year with
aew vigor and zeal, that they might
make the most of the fall and winter
for the turtherng of the Kingdom.
While many of the churches were
taking breathing spell we were max.
Tag special etfor. but that only gave
us running start and therefore we
ought to accomplish the more during
The season OF special effort. Can you
see the opportunity?
Where there is no vision the peo
pie perish. We need vision of
greater things and of many brought
into the Kingdom of Christ We need
more Of that vision, We must make a
sincere effort to materialize that vision
or the people will perish.
Erasmus had a vision OF the new
day parallel with that of Luther but il
the Reformation had been dependant
On him the iron heel Of autoracy would
have crushed the very life out Of hu
manity.
Luther not only saw the vision but
he threw the force Of his whole being
IN, put al on the alter and obeyed the
marching orders of the Great Com
mander The new day was born and
a great day it has been.
There is great day ahead but it is
yet unborn and there will Of necessit Y
be pain and labo. il it is ever fully
born. Shall we faint at the thought
of pain or die in the hour of deliver
ance? God forbid.
The teachings Of Jesus Christ NAV
not harmonic with our natural desires
and We may have to sacrifice some
habits, desires and incllna,ions if we
obey His teachings. A better day is
coming and the time of it's approach b
depends entirely upon the extent OF
our obedience to the Great Master of
all.
If you see the need Of better day
in this community and the local church
the responsibility rests with you. Will
you be Luther Oh an Erasn.usi

L0OSES HIS REASON.

to custody Wm. WeIch, young man
who lives eight miles south west OF

one half of the purchase price, and an
other payment was due next month,

money market, it caused him to wor

He has been making his home With
a ue gbbor, ID. B. Rus sell, who told
Us tuat he was hard working young
fellow, and that he had forty acres in
sod corn on his land this year that
promised bumper crop, and in real

to worry SO about his financial cond

month ago he noticed that the young
man was beginning TO act queer and

Last Wednesday, youuS Welch said
that he was coming to Wood to do
some trading, and Mr.. Russell asked
hm tC make some purchases for him
at the same time. He failed to re

put IN an appearance the next day or
night, and Friday Mr.. Russell came
to Wood to find OUT what had become
Of the young man. He found the
oeam IN Wood but could not discover
where Weloh was, SO a search was
made for him, and he was found north

SOME CORN.

Sunday We were out north east of
Wood, and III our rounds visited at
Frank Hakls, where we secured four
ears OF flint corn that are certainly
fine specimens of this variety of corn.
The ears we got averaged I inches in
length, are well filled and the corn Is
fully matured and each ear weighs an
average of one and "a quarter pounds,
Mr.. Hakl never fails to raise a good
crop Of corn.
Monday morning L. II. Hamilton
brought us ten ears Of his yellow dent
corn that is simply perfect, the ears
averaged nlne inches in length. and
they are fully matured, and the aver
age weight Of each year is one pound
This j. as fine corn as you will find
anywhere. The corn generally is now
pretty well out Of the way of frost
and while a few weeks ago macy were
predicting that there would be lot
OF soft c IN this year; the genera
opinion is now, that there vii! BE very
little soft com in this county, but that
practically all Of the corn will have
fully matured before we get a killing
frost. The corn crop in this county
this year IS the best ever aud there
will be considerable 90 and 50 bushel
per acre corn in the county.

at must be remembered that there

great American educator. There is
one for respectable French families
who live as quietly as the bourgeols
of America, and there is another for
the huge floating population. The life
of the boulevard is wicked. That can
not be denied. but it must not be at
tributed wholly to the French. Paris
houses a parasitic foreign element
larger than that in any other city IN
the world 1t comes here simply for
pleasure, to spend money and to pass
the time in idleness. To cater to the
pleasures of this element has become
one of the city industries. Enormous
amounts of capital, controlled by. four
or five large trusts. have been invest
ed in hotels, cafes, theaters and
amusement places of the more ques-
tionable sort These trusts naturally
fight for a wide-open city and tney

It is absolutely clear that the in
terests of capital. labor and the pu b
lie are so completely bound together
that anything detrimental to one
necessarily reacts unfavorably upon
the other. 1t also is clear that pub
lie ownership of public utilities would
result in that glaring inefticiencN
which has characterized the manage
ment of so many cities where DOM,
nant political party has been placed
in complete control through the use
of the patronage and where polltica
control of the patronage by the domi-
nant party would be made more com
plete by reason Of the additional pa
tronage which government control OF
the railroads would AFFORD the party

The safest and best way to settle
the labor and railroad question is to
leave the railroads in the hands OF
the stockholders, whose interest IN
having the properties efficiently and
economically managed Will give US
the moderate passenger and freight
rates we enjoyed before the fedora
government assumed control.
A permanent tribunal removed As
much as possible from political IN

upon wages, passenger and freight
rates In this way our railroad prob

tai. labor and the public.
