LAM) REFORMS
Thc cause of the war in Mexico may
be stated in one word- i eonafcei
There are individuals in that country
who owned landed estates that pom
pare in size and extent with whole
states In the American union. On the
other hand there are in Mexico hun
dreds of thousands of persons who are
so poor that the entire amount that
one receive* in the course ola year
would not pay tor a decent suit "Ot
clothes. . y?~
It was the wish or Francisco Madero
to establish a constitutional form pf
government which would require, the
owners rt immense tracts of land to
partition them off and to sell portions
to the peona to be paid for in Install
ments, either by the month or by the
yeas. Madero waa honest and sincere
In his intentions, although he waa the
richest Individual In Mexico, perhaps,
but when he, got Into office be found
so II uch to be done that be did not get
to carry Into execution the pian? for
a constitutional government, which}
ia in effect a democracy, much like
our own. That ls the reason why
Jealous fellow-rebels against Dins rose
against him. That la how he hap
pened to fall a prey to tho wily
acharnes of. Huerta.

one plan, .
In 1899 ivor, Pocre, father of the
Duchess p.' amil ton, Secured posaea
sipn of the ojd village and Bomo of its

ernment, practically identical to that
of the Saxons-there a thousand years
ago. At the 'beginning of - the ex pc d
ment the major chose for the person
nel of the scheme person* noted moy*
for industry than for wealth. A Saxon
village hundred was chosen and thia
primitive legislature allr?ed laud to

whereby the paymentr. for the land
could be extended ever a period of

petuity by the villagers.
The village ia now. a self-sifitalnlng
community and what waa sorted a*
more or less of a charity, has proven
successful commercially. All ot the
villagers are free men in the old Sa#>
on sense the term and the social and
political life of'the placa is based on
this assumption of equality. The pro
meters have been chary ot publicity

that there will be a special reunion
choir of 200 voices, noys and girls
who will sing the old songs of the

looked over the list of churches and
then said "Where is that Second Pres

The Aftermath.
The aftermath of his meeting is

aftermath a thousand men who were
converted ht his meetings banded to

one big club ot men ot several hun

nwt t* study the bible, hold prayer
Imeetings, etc. And no new members

and tbjty are coming all the time.
? Nothing like thib work baa ever ttans

The clergyman begged them sot to kill

The treasure.box wes taken off. the

There was a simultaneous crack, and
the other guard fell at the banda ot
the other woman. Before tbe mea
who were trying to open the treasure
box could get their gens to bear both

other by the squeaky voiced man.
Then both the men jumped out of

FAVORABLE attention.
I once Baw a salesman mab into a
store, Interrupt a merchant -In walang
a bill of overalls. The merchant lis
tened to h!?n talk for a few minutes
and then called him down. The mer?
chant-told him'that be had interrupted
him lo waling on a customer, that
he bad.forced hlniBelf ahead of two
other traveling salomen, who were
waiting, and if he had no better sense
than, that, he could get - Out' of his

The young aaleman was wcrttned
