I Religions Enterprise.
, Postal cards, invoking the prayers of religiously
and d'evoatly lnollned women In
behalfof foreign missionaries, are being c?roalated
Id Abbeville. Tbe plan seems to be
for each one who receives a card to write a
similar card to ten other persons, requesting
that each of the ten write to ten others, very
mach, a* we believe, after tbe plan wblob
was adopted for Increasing tbe circulation of
a Florida newipaper, the plan belDg not enUrely
dlflerent from tne North Carolina
achtfme of selling cherry trees.

L newspaper scheme and the Nortb Carolina
[f plan of selling cherry trees were to make
money for tbe Individuals. Tbe plan of
V - wblob we liow speak is meant for. Christians
lto Join in a petition to tbe tbrone of Grace
(or tbe Increase of tbelr zeal or energy In
gjf advancing tbe Redeemer's kingdom In foralgn
lands.
^ It Is rigbt an d proper to pray for the missionaries.
Some of tbem no doabt need our
prayers, and It Is a matter of congratulation
that tbey are not neglected.
Tbe subject of missions Is comprehensive
v and lnclndes varions enterprises. For lnU
stance: Devout Christians in this part of^tbe
' world_ are much interested In sendsr g tbe
Roapelto China, to India, and to Mexico. In
tbe Northern or Eastern part of tbe United
States Christians and philanthropists are
ending thousands and thousands of dollars,
and employing a multitude of teachers and'
, preachers to educaite and Cbristlanlz e the
negro at onr very doors, bnt for whose moral
and spiritual welfare we seem to be very Intl
different.
On a dead level we are Inclined to believe
- 'that i Hin Is as good as a Chinaman, and
' v we fall to be Impressed with any Idea tbat an
Indian or a negro, or a Mexican balf breed,
1b any better than a Cblnaman.
For religions people and tor philanthropists
there Is a glamour about helping far off
i 1 people. Men who seldom give a dollar and
ery' rarely give a kind word to the strug*
gllng neighbor, are sometimes extremely
> liberal when the subjeot of foreign missions
;V Is mentioned. They do this, too, when
It Is possible that some poor neighbor's child,
with a pnre heart and,a good mind, Is denied
the benefits of a Christian education
The best missionaries are good men and good
women, who have been educated, and their
best field is at bcyne with their own kind of
* people. Instead of Imbuing our educated
you!bg women with any idea tbat the people
at their own home should be deprived of their
presence, their elevating Influence, and their
Christian example, they should be Impressed
with the higher, the nobler and the belter
Ufa which they would live as some good
man's wife. The example, the teachings and
the labors of a good mother at home Is beyond
computation. The hlgbesi estate to
whloh any woman can reaoh Is to be the
mother of a good boy or a pare girl.
Does it then advance the cause of the Re
i> deemer, to send a good woman to missionary
fields In foreign lands ?
Is not her first duly to her native land, and
to her own prople ?
The gospel Is spread by praotlo.%1 methods,
Christian civilisation 1b gained by praotlcal
methods, the sool's very salvation Is won by
practical methods. Are
we then making the best use of oar
" money In sending our go jd people abroad as
f missionaries while our streets and our by
ways are filled by people who seldom enter
the doors ol a church ?
If such people are perverse of heart and
desperately wicked should they be left neglected
in their waywardness?
We insist mat their souls are of as muob
value as the souls of those strangers beyond
the sea. ,
V. It may be that their absenoe from divine
^ service is due to a lack of Interest In tbe
servloe. II ihe service Is made attractive do
L you not believe tbat tbey will be tbere T
k What is theology worth to tbe average man
V or what does tbe average man care about tbe
ology? Nearly all of us have euougb orthodox
theology to save our soul*, but a great
many of us bave not enough personal Integrity
to buy a coat on a credit. We need a re
liglon of prlnolple. We need a religion, sucb
\ as oar Baviour taught. But wbat do we know
about theology ? Or what do we rare about
It? We need to bave the character and tbe
qualities impressed upon us which were
exemplified by our HavtOur. Tbe Christian
religion is intended primarily to govern our
dally lives on eartb. And we should so
conduct ourselves ibat we may lie down at
tne last, trubllng in tbe mercy and tb^ goouneas
ot the.lUreat Judge. The exerclse-of tbe
faith itiit Is founded on the consciousness of
duty honestly performed is tbe assurance
that tbe pure heart Is always an acceptable
offering at the throne of Urace. We need lessons
in principle more than Instruction In
apeou alive theology.
We know that tbe reader Is ready to quote
from scripture about going Into dark places
'V with the light of tbe gospel, and we would

[ missionaries as to tbe glorious results of their
labors. We would detract nothing from tbe
lustre of tbelr work. We would pluok no
J diadem from tbelr crown. To tbelr eyes tbe
facts, tbe condllions, and tbe circumstanced

Co-operation is one of 'be most es
sential forms of demonstrating the ad
vancement aud degree of civilizatioi
that auy community auy city, stati
or nation has attained.
Co-operation ha9 not always bene
fitted those who have co-operated to
gether, because of tbeir lack of know
ledge of th? Importance of co-operativi
principles of cooperation have beet
misapplied. Tbe cunning and selflsl
have utilzed the principle for sellist
ends aud used it as a means of exploit
lng the co-operators and garnerim; t<
themselves a goodly portion of tb*
wealth resulting from tbe labor o
those who co-operate; in fact they ex
ploit and absorb all tbe increased earn
ings produced by co operative effort
It Is claimed that civilized men am
women are the only animals or being
that are able to i crease tbeir Individ
ual product by co-operating or work
iug jointly together. The joint pro
duct of animals does not exceed tbi
proportional Bum that one auima
rtnniH nrminrw workinc seneratelv
that the only exception to thin rule Y
civilized human beings. It has beei
demonstrated for ages that two or mor
persons working together co-opera
lively can produce more than the sami
number could produce working in
dividually and seperately.
Tbat two or more men by co-opec
ative effort can produce what one person
working alone could not produo
at all* In order to exploit and tak<

tion of bis earnings, the cunningh
selfish individual or individual Lia
ever used some method, some mean
to gamer themselves (he iucreabe<
portion of earnings produced by co
operative effort. For instance, if A
and B could each produce $1 worth o
wealth per day working seperately
their combined earnings would be $
per day. Theu' let there* co-operat
and combine their effort in au intelii
gent manner and they produce, bay $
perdaj; just double their earning
while working seperately. They fln<
their work is easier and they do no
have to work any more hours. Th
selfish commercial exploiter her
comes in and " touches " both of th
men for the amount of the increase
claiming it as his share as employer
The teaching of capitalism orspoliutioi
is so general and common that wealtl
producers have generously submitted
to the tferme of the selfish exploiter
for years and years. True co-opei
ation abhorbs any system that permit
any individuals to take from the pre
ducer any portion of his product with
nut first rendering him its equivalent
(Society is divided into two classes un
der our commercial system:
Tbe laboriug aud producing clasi
who produce ail wealth aud own bu
little of it. '
The exploiting class who produc
nothing but have succeeded in rob
bing tbe producing class of a portio,
of their earnings and now this smal
per cent of gratters and bucaneers owi
nearly all tbe wealth that bas bee
produced by honest toil.
Intelliuent co-operation has a broa
significance. If generally applied li
all business affairs in this nation i
would result iu epuitable dealings i
all commercial transactions. It it> tb
principle upon which a square deal i

a correct economic principle whic
em bo hies true religion and hai
monizes with the Golden Rule.
Capital utilizes a portion of the co
operutive principle and takes that poi
tion which co-operative economic e
fort produces. They exploit this ii
crement produced by co-operaiive ei
fort and pile it up by the million!
True co-operation will give to the pr<
ducers the full benefit of their produc
tion which includes the incremeu
produced by united effort.
Co-operation is progressiva and ever
advancement made by commercU
capitalism would be increased und<
commercial co-operation ana an equ
table system of exobange. Under caj
italiutic commercialism millions t
dollars have been accumulated in th
hands of men who did not earn i
Under co-operative commerce thes
millions would go to the men wb
produced them. Under the capital!*

many produce. Under the cc-opert

Some Points About Rofcd tldilM A?4
Their Use. ?'$
Every road Is made smoother and
harder by rolling, and dirt roads an
do exception to this rule, says Isaac B.
Potter. We have all noticed that the . *
hardest and smoothest parts of a country
road are the narrow strip* which
mark the passage of the wagon wheels
that have gone over it, and these parts
have become hard and smooth because
the wheels have acted as rollers. Beit a
wagon wheel Is not always a very satisfactory
roller, for the reason that the
wheel tires are too narrow, and when
the road Is wet and soft the narrow
wheels sink into the surface and form
ruts and cut and mix and mangle the
dirt out of all reason and destroy the
good qualities of the roadway. If all]
the wagons used on country roads 1
could be provided with tires four inches j

smoothly and more quickly, and It
would be in (airly good condition for
nearly the whole, year nran'd.
A good horse roller will serve much
to cure this difficulty, and such a toilet

can be bought for from $80 to $100 per,
ton. A. roller weighlng'&boutflve ton*
Is about thei proper thing.' Steam rollers
are becoming more generally used '
from year to year in oar cities and
towns, and there axe many 'places
where they can be osed to advantage
in consolidating the earth roads of the
suburb8. They are generally more'ef>
fectlve in their work and if kept busy

are vastly cheaper to operate, rue/

the ten and twelve ton sizes being
perhaps the most popular. .
Rolling. should follow closely'ta$an
the work of the road grader or scraper
so as to consolidate all the lobse earth
which the action, of the scraper has
laid In the line of the roadway. The
roller should pass many timesover the
softer portions of the road, and 'where
the road Is very dry and not Inclined
to pack It may be slightly moistened
to hasten-the action of the roller. The
rolling shonld begin at the aides of the
road and work gradually toward the
center?that la, the roller shonld be
passed from end to aid along the aide
of the road, and then the second passage
of the roller should slightly lap
$e first until the center of the road is
reached. j

The Use ot Petroleum oa Highways
to Lay the Dntt. ^
The use of 611 on highways Is steadtly
Increasing In . favor. Io Moline,
ILL, oil has been tried In place of water ' ' ^
as a remedy for dost, and the results
have been satisfactory. Bourbon, Ind.,
Is considering the Idea of sprinkling
the streets with olL The dust problem
there Is a very serious one during the /
summer months, for there are no grav- , ' lyi'V
el beds from which to construct rpata/
The towns of California, which have
been doing more In this line than those ' f of
any other state, 'are testifying to the
great benefits derived from oil on the
highways, by'the continued use they
are making of this means of laying the
dust, says the New York Tribune, The
boasd of supervisors- of Sacramento
are greatly in favor of oiled roads.
Three hundred or 850 barrels of oil a ,)
mile are at times necessary for the
permanent packing of a sand road, but
in many cases only 150 barrels need be

The roads of California are In most
cases of sand, and tbe great benefits
derived from the consolidating of this
sand with the oil is continually testi- ,'i
fled to by those in charge of the highways.
Not only is the oil a better dost
layer and a more permanent one, bnt
It Is also more economical than water,
inasmuch as the roads need to be ailed
but once or twice a year, while sprtn- >
kllng with water must be done every;
little while.
Cilni Straw to Improve Roads. ' ^
The farmers of Walla Walla county.
Wash., are trying the experiment of > ^
laying their roads with straw to Improve
them, says the New lork Trib- (
une. Every fall tbe bignways Become
deep with dust, making traveling hard j
on man and beast Heavy raina meant J
mad, and the dost could not be re- M
moved without destroying tbe. roadway.
It then occurred to an enterprl*
Ing individual that If all of the farmers jH
would contribute straw and all hand* ,
assist in laying It on tbe roads most ?9H
traveled there would be a great change afl
for tbe better. The experiment waft a
decided success. Tbe farmers turned
out Id force, plenty of straw was offered,
ready hands laid It to the death
of a foot or more on tbe main thoroughfares
of the couuty, and traveling
became easy. Three hundred miles of
roads will be covered with straw this
