A GREAT DETECTIVE IN ST.
JOHNSBURY

The mems service at Grace Mctho-
dist church at 3 o'clock in the after
noon filled every seat in the auditori-
UNI. Three of the f,aternal organi-
cations, the Masons, the Odd Fellows
and the Knights of Pythias, attended
in large delegations. The scripture
was read by Rev. Dr. +. A. Poole, tn.
prayer was given by Rev. +. B. Rich
ards, and the male. quartette sang
two selections, "Jesus Saviour, Pilot
Me" and "Welcome, Wanderer Wei
come" Mrs. Rees sang solo, "Wherc
Is my Wandering Boy Tonight" and
II novel feature Of the singing was
the rendering of Brighten the Cor
ner" by the entire audience whistling
the chorus.
"Be sure your sin will find you"
was the theme of DR.. Rees' gripping
address and sin, he said, was the great
detective that was in st. Johnsbuly
today. You cannot escape this great
detective. The outstanding sin Of this
town is Indifference. First there is
Indifference on the part of those in
the church for things that make for
Righteousness. l think I may safely
say your prayer meetings must be en-
ceedingly small, and l believe there is
more Indifference to the square inch
in St. Johnsbury than in other towns
of this size.
There is. spirit of indifference
among men outside the churches.
What does God require? "Son, give
me thine heart"
There is indifference with reference
to tho parents solicitude for their
children.
There is too prevalent in st. Johns
bury the sin of dissatisfaction.
This, in the last analysis is nH"lectinG
God.
The sin of profanity is prevalent
in St. Johnsbury. "Thou shalt MOI
take the name of the Lord, thy God,
in vain" 1t is lamcntable thing
for any one to take the name of thu
Lord in vain. A man canbreak himself
of this awful habit - he will.
Another sin is that of gambling.
"Once a gambler, always a gambler"
is, alas, too true. Then tho"" is the
sin of booze in the home and the
sin of immortality. Sometimes men
have forgotten that this is a dual sim
and so much the more will your SIN
find you out. Striking illustrations
illustrating all these points were CIV
,cn by the speaker from his
experiences as an evangelist.
In closing DR.. Rees said Gods
great love conquered 80 and he
graphically illustrated this by display
ing a crimson flag and white flag
saying "Come, now. let us reason to-
gether, saith the Lord. Though your
sins be as scarlet they shall be as
white as snow; though they be red
like crimson, they shall be as wool"

There is no cure once the disease is

In this instance where the animal

The negri bodies are not found in the

those in which the disease (rabies)
has become well established. These
bodies may be abent in the first stage
OF the disease and in such cases the
laboratory can check the result by

which can be absolutely stamped ou

enterprise of our Florida live stock
men during the last few, years, the

Five years ago it was generally con-
ceded by experienced live stock men
within our borders that the pure-bed
hog could not bring more than fifty
dollars il intended for breeding pur-

sale, though the first held by Willis

in every way. The attendance was
remarkably good, totaling fully siz
hundred. Great interest was shown
by the spectators and the bidding was
very spirited. We consider that the
prices realized at this sale were very
good specially when we take into
consideration. the low price real
lied for market hogs during the last
six months and the abnormally higl
prices asked for all feeding stuffs.
The gross amount realized on thii
