ARKnr?i?!fl Reformed Presbyterians, and be was quite sure tbat tbe Tt members of Long Cane congregation would reqi be equally delighted to bear tbe pastor of this met : '? congregation. His expressions made a a g< pleasant beginning of tbe day's exercises. io o Mr. Sblve read tbe parables of tbe lost olbi silver, tbe lost 6beep, and tbe return of tbe nelj prodlcal son, and tbe preacher In his sermon pen associated tbem together as going to show ?/ onr Saviour's love for even those of us who bad wondered from tbe path of righteous- Al ness. Tbe aot of tbe woman who searobed cott tor tbe lost piece of sliver, tbe shepherd who 100 left tbe Dlnely-and-olne to look alter the sooi missing sbeep, and the return of the prodigal d were all of a kind and were Intended ti to teach a lesson as to tbe love of tbe Qood pog( Shepherd for tbe loet sbeep, to lmprees upon ' , u? tbe fact of bis love for even tbe most way '< ward nons of tbe Father. He Bald our Sa- Tl ' Tlonr was the Good Shepherd. He pat the leai little lambs In bis bosom and the old sln' . steeped sheep be pat on his back and carried them safely Into tbe fold again. Tbe preach- W, er seemed to think bis bearers might be a judge, each In bis own case, as to the parity of bis heart as well as of bis acceptability Km with tbe Father; that wltblo as was tbe proof of oar spirituality. As he anoounoed tbe different Psalms, ex- Tl cepl at the last, be loformed tbe congregation ^ . In whose praises we would sing tbe Inspired Wet word! of David. ble Durlog his sermon be repeated a beautiful Presbyterian hymn, which, at least one rou member of the ooDgregatlon would baye been Tl ; Kl?d for the choir to sing. Tbe preacher addressed his prayers to "our mai : Father our God," and during bis utterance ol ibe tbe petition be asked "God's spirit" to bless and to keep us. jlre ' * In hU natural tone Mr. Shlve has a cultl- M vated voice and blB enunciation was olear u"' and distinct.

As those who are ^al vaccinated are Immune to small pox, and a* pei i . < oloy those who reluse to be vaccinated are oft |r susceptible to tbe disease, we see no reaton 01 F Justice in requiring tbe citizens to be vaccl- ?tbc nated. Only those who are willing to take and chances can have small pox. Wbere tben |?^ is the consistency, of compelling one man to \yl; be vaccinated against unall pox, while hU ibe neighbor can maintain a pig pen and expose him to fever. vai, Tbe proper tblng for the authorities to do A is to look alter tbe sonitary condition of tbe back lot*, and let alone those who willingly nes take chances at small pox. line Tbe next thing anybody knows some enterprlBlng physician will be wanting to vacl- and nate little hollow chested, weagen faced ibli barp nosed boys against oigarettes.

And so it Is, tbe that cigarettes are a great benefator of the p"}|( human raoe. me Tl Sec fe v . - flft< Wrong;. s?n tba President Roosevelt proposes a tax on tbe coa ioberltsd estates.

Ten The atiorney general has given an opinion In whlbb be holds that the salaries of state dep< officers are liable to the income tax. How Gi \ one law tfould fix a Governor's Balary at \ ?3,SCO, and how another law oould confiscate fare \ a part of that sum so that the officer would and \ actually receive less the amount fixed by law Is not plain to the average layman. To tick tax our oftlcei'8 salaries is no more Just than 8.0 would be the taxing of State or County bonds. The State certainly has no equitable a right to tax the bolder of Its own bonds.
