then Sir Richard recognized the reader and stepped behind tree as the man thrust paper into poe ket and hastened away, swift and silent as he had come.
 For some while Sir Richard lean ed there, then, moved by sudden thought, he stepped into the ar- bour and peered about. Passing his hands to and fro across the timbering until at last his care and patience were rewarded, some thing rustled faintly, and from be- hind one of the uprights, he drew a folded paper, and spreading this to the moon, read these words very plainly written:

WHAT'S BEING DONE.
Daily Lenten
Thought
BY WILLIAM E. GILR0Y, D. D.

NJ WILLIAM 3. G4AtLOx, u. d. Z
Editor Of The Congrogationalist)
Why has the observance Of Lent
taken and held such place in the
modern world even among those who
formerly disregarded it?
It Is not merely that men are be-
coming broader and more compre-
hensive In the faith ana practice If
religion. Nor Is It merely because Of
an intensified interest N the human
life Of Jesus Of Nazareth. It is be-
cause the Lenten season, especially
In It's insistence upon the nearness Of
that earthly life Of the Master to our
lives. Is revealing q new ministry to
human need.
For the cheerful, whose way OF life
Is optimistic and sunny, Lent is as
ISOLATED with the revival OF spring.
Purifying and Christianizing the old
Pagan festival Of springtime, It
quickens the respnse Of the soul to
the mystic rebirth Of life and beauty
In the world. and to the forces that
minister to continued existence.
! But TO the ecrrowful and burdencd,
who feel the weight and bitterness
Of life's inevitable experience It
brings q deeper ministry Of comfort
and communion. We tread the way
Of life with one who was known ana
felt alike It's Joys and sorrows and
who has shed upon the common
path the radiance OF hope and faith.

North Dakota stands very good chance Of losing one

North Dakota has only three congressman and due to
the fact that its population little less while the east

population and give those cities and states larger

In determining who shall represent her in Congress;
why then should they be counted in determining how
many representatives she shall have much fairer

resorted to.
It is Z good plan to begin the treat
ment as SOON as the first symptoms
of pain are noticed or when the
hernia Is first discovered. The patient
should Immediately secure . good
rupture support and wear 1t con-
stantly until he Is assured by his
doctor that the cure Is complete.
Through delay In using this truss
cure may be frustrated. The next
thing to do is to avoid all gas-form-
ing foods, especially onions, cooked
cabbage, etc.
The quantity Of food should be
kept to the minimum Of the body's
requirements. The menus out
lined weekly in my newspaper column
may be used. It Is q good plan to
take at least one enema day and
better two, one in the morning and
one at night, using only a quart of
plain water each time. The enema
should be taken in the knee-chest
position and the rupture support
should be worn at the same time.
These enemaS should be continued
for several weeks or over several
months If 1t is necessary.
One should also start developing
the abdominal muscles through TAX
ing careful course Of setting up
exercises. the most beneficial of
which are those exercises taken while

will be carried by gravity toward the
